Love is your friends squatting beside you to wash and scrub your hair. (khad and shu zhen really made sure my hair was clean)
Love is sitting in the cafe drinking half priced coffee and eating atas sandwiches with Shu Zhen
Love is also having lunch prepared for you and the entire gang.
Fun is having an afternoon whiled away underneath the hot sentosa sun.
Nice is when people you just met for 30 minutes start teaching you how to play volleyball and basketball and praise you when you get it right. (even my brothers dont do that for me)
Evil is when you get forced to pick up balls in the squash court. (however, evil redeemed herself by introducing yummy tom yam fish noodles and let you lie on her floor for a nap and lets you watch sara bareilles)
nerve wrecking is when you spend the whole night praying for safety. ( and God is awesome- amazing how we escaped unscathed with a few misses here and there.)
Family is when they send you home in a cab cause you're feeling woozy (and partly cause they're lazy as well :P) Thanks Gavin, Tab and Ryan!
Family is also having Saturday night bible study! That's one thing i'll miss for sure.
Surealism is going through monday morning. Really. I never want to do it again.
And finally, nice is when your friend lets you in her house to bake bread pudding even though she thinks you're weird. Thankfully in real life you don't have to pay tax for passing through your friend's house.
i finshed it. i finished it in the matter of a morning. all 432 pages? :( i couldnt get enough of it. I like her books. heh. Even though they all end the same way. almost. i would like to watch How to Deal, tho i dont think they have it here. I'm tempted to say that knight's in shining armour don't exist. They dont actually. (except like maybe my dad) or maybe they save only the damsel in distress. It wasn't too long ago that I was fuming as I walked up to my grandma's house, wondering why i had to change the bathroom light when my cousin was around. Thankfully, he changed the lightbulb, and grandma explained that she forgot that he could do it. I shan't complain, since now i know that i can carry my own sack of rice, change my own lightbulb and yada.
walked through the henderson waves with XL. I like the blue azure sky. It was actually raining cats and dogs in the morning. But, by the time we started, the weather was nice and cool. Cold even.
i'm glad i went down to hui and kuah today. :) I found out the power of google maps. I shall use it to plan my time in Edmonton.
Frustrated with this uni thing. I feel that i'm better off being a house kid. Where things become routine- the ironing, the washing and the cleaning up.
I found lock and key by Sarah Dessen in the Library! NLB rawks. Even though there are times where you can't get the books that you want. Like wurthering heights is always always borrowed out, but the latest stuff is always available in the library.
Went tree top walk last week as part of a sister outing. haha. Saw a owl nesting in some tree at the side of the bridge. That was cool. First time really, seeing a owl up close and personal. We got lost on our way back. And then, at some part we heard strange growling noises which weren't made by humans. That was scary. haha. And no, i do not attract weird creatures unlike what my classmates think.
Had my first meeting with the rest of the mission team (actually 2 other people) I feel so protected already being the youngest there. More team members please, God?
:( caused by mixed messages from different people from the agency. uni applications. i'll be glad when it's settled.
I am silver and exact. I have no preconceptions. What ever you see I swallow immediately Just as it is, unmisted by love or dislike . I am not cruel, only truthful— The eye of a little god, four-cornered. Most of the time I meditate on the opposite wall. It is pink, with speckles. I have looked at it so long I think it is a part of my heart. But it flickers. Faces and darkness separate us over and over. Now I am a lake. A woman bends over me, Searching my reaches for what she really is. Then she turns to those liars, the candles or the moon. I see her back, and reflect it faithfully. She rewards me with tears and an agitation of hands. I am important to her. She comes and goes. Each morning it is her face that replaces the darkness. In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish.
I like this poem that Cher shared. Now, as i think upon yesterday's devotion, it was about mirrors too. How long have I not checked myself in a spiritual mirror. I must be tardy and unkempt.
Had a happy time watching Departures yesterday. It's great movie to watch. :) shall watch it again if i can get my hands on the VCD. Thanks suzie for the company! haha. Luckily you forgot about the last doreamon. :P
Swimming today was fruitful too. Turned another shade darker. If this continues, i think i'll turn into chao ta bao by the end of March. And then me and jr went shopping at AMK hub. Tell me that i'm happening. Anyway, now when i walk past Osmose, i'll think of jr, just like when i walk past Crystal Jade bakery, i'll think of yam buns and think of Val
I'm done with watching my fruits basket. This is soo awfully sad- it ended like that. :( i'm not addicted, i can stop anytime i want to. haha. But that's not true i guess. I had to had to finish it.
I have been trying to engage myself in art projects at home. trying is a good word, because getting started is one thing. finishing it is no problem though. And it's painful sitting on my butt that has a big bruise because sar-y was oh-so-clumsy to have slipped down the stairs. Surely it wasn't my fault- the stairs were slippery. Someone had to fall on them.
alright. time to get moving for all that housework there is to be done. that is if i can bear to flex and extend my hip.
i like the way your hair flows gently in the wind. I like the white stick figures that pop out when something dumb happens. hahah. That's it- i'm still addicted to fruits basket. I risk being laughed at for confessing to like such a girly thing, but who cares if it makes me laugh.

Although the fig tree shall not blossom
neither shall fruit be in the vines;
the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat;
the flock shall be cut off from the fold,
and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.
Habakkuk 3:17-18
This lullaby is only a few words
A simple run of chords
Quiet here in this spare room
But you can hear it, hear it
Wherever you may go
I will let you down
But this lullaby plays on
