There goes the other leg
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
There is no beautifier of complexion, or form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us. 'Tis good to give a stranger a meal, or a night's lodging. 'Tis better to be hospitable to his good meaning and thought, and give courage to a companion. We must be as courteous to a man as we are to a picture, which we are willing to give the advantage of a good light.
Thich Nhat Hanh:
Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.
Ah… Sunday… Sabbath… Got rest?
-shakes head-
Don’t mind me… I need to get this off my chest:
I really don understand some people… when I had short hair… complain that I am a tom-boy… “so boy-ish/ not feminine/ so chor lor”
But when I have long hair?
Complain that my hair keep dropping all over the house… for goodness sakes!
MAKE UP YOUR MIND!!!!
Shesh~!
Wednesday… the WWS blunder… but it all turned out good :)
Then went to Shi Min’s party.
Very glad that Shi Min had a good time.
Caught up with old friends from JC and hung with SIM buddies… have to plan an outing xia… must go out and play~! :D
Thursday was spent in the house…. Resting and waiting for the evening time to roll around…
Caught Superman Returns on Friday with Aziz. :)
Here’s the irony:
I did not want to watch the movie at first, but he managed to talk me into watching it.
In the end, he was the one dissing the movie while I was defending it… O.olll
All in all, the special effects and plot were not too shabby, but I feel that there was not any concrete sense of finality at the end of the movie… I mean, Lex only gets marooned, Louis does not choose between the two guys, the crystals get flown out into space and Jason is still wheezing from ‘asthma’ … I so see a part 2 coming in the next few years…
And in case you’re wondering, I don mind Brandon Roth one bit…
-migumi laughter-
Yeap… he can come home with me any time~
-more migumi laughter-
After the movie, we walked from Takashimaya to Plaza Sing… Library to Kino and other shops…looking for books and presents and VCDs… lets just say that I have spent more than my share of money for the entire month of July…
-hides-
I made the most of the last day for borrowing double the limit at the library :D
Got me 8 books and grumbled all the way home about the weight… hahaha… but the books are totally worth it… I even managed to find the continuing book to Cloud of Sparrows.
What’s Cloud of Sparrows?
Only one of my favorite books… thanks for asking… :p
I also managed to do some scouting regarding the books I intend to buy in the later part of my holiday… choices, choices… hard to make when there are so many feasible options…
-bangs head against the wall-
But I am happy that I have choices all the same… better than not having any at all… heh….
Saturday… to work…to TPY… Black belt grading and then to Sizzler for Lucien’s birthday dinner… Alfred + Lucian + Me = Chaos.
We ate a lot… it was a lot… believe me…
It is kinda scary watching those two guys eat… o.olll
Got up bright and early today to get ready for service.
My lesson bombed… darn… wish it had gone better… but I will do better for the next one!
I promise!
Beelined to WWS for bike patrol.
My first time since the maiden recce we did one year back, and this time, I was the Patrol leader.
My members consisted of Eric, Deborah, Timothy, Terrance and Ved.
Thank God that Eugene asked Ved to come down… if not I would have been going blindly for a lot of things…
Highlight of the day: I got injured.
I think I am the first person to get injured during bicycle patrol.
-hysterical laughter-
My right leg is now a road map of blood and bruises with a deep cut in the center… hahaha… as per normal… I spent most of the time laughing… from getting injured to going home and talking about it and now while in front of the computer I am still laughing at how accident prone I am… hahaha… nice long history I have with getting injured aye?
-more hysterical laughter-
The funny thing was that the boat and bicycle patrols were on the verge of being called off by Ivan because of the weather. Ivan was in charge for the boat patrol today by the way. They went out to do water sampling and other scientific stuff… heh…
Helped with the cleaning up and then some, followed by writing out the report, and then my whole crew headed out to the hawker centre for lunch.
The conversation with Ved was very interesting and enlightening.
So much I have yet to learn and see in this world… wow…
The rain finally decided to show up once we decided to start making our way home.
Got home and got my wounds cleaned up only to find myself stepping out of the house again to go and help with the training at the CC.
-psychotic laughter-
Considering grading is next Sunday… I hope that lightning does not strike twice in the same place, coz some kids really do deserve a huge smack… and I am being merciful about it… bleah~!
"You are the One, You are the One,
You are the One, You are the One,
You are the One, You are the One,
I love~"
Aight… wanna get back to my books…
Take care y’ll… enjoy the weather… while it lasts~
