I guess I'm learning to be more big picture focused, and to plan for a longer period of time (e.g. 8 weeks.) haha.
I realized that I can usually only plan up to 3 weeks in advance by myself (not including dates that are already set :\) i think i'd need to plan up to september (in terms of work and ministry) soon 'cos of the italy trip, and 'cos of the changes in the group :D yay

This song accompanied me on a bus in a jam :D

All my days - Alexi Murdoch

Well I have been searching all of my days
All of my days
Many a road, you know
I?ve been walking on
All of my days
And I've been trying to find
What?s been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well I have been quietly standing in the shade
All of my days
Watch the sky breaking on the promise that we made
All of this rain
And I've been trying to find
What's been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near
All of my days
I cried aloud
I shook my hands
What am I doing here
All of these days
For I look around me
And my eyes confound me
And it's just too bright
As the days keep turning into night

Now I see clearly
It's you I'm looking for
All of my days
Soon I'll smile
I know I'll feel this loneliness no more
All of my days
For I look around me
And it seems He found me
And it's coming into sight
As the days keep turning into night
As the days keep turning into night
And even breathing feels all right
Yes, even breathing feels all right
Now even breathing feels all right
Yes even breathing
Feels all right

Verreste viaggiare con me?
hahaa.
Having a sudden desire wander the streets of somewhere foreign, to infuse myself with simple acoustic versions of songs, to touch stone walls and ponder about who has touched it before, to breathe in and take in tantalizing aromas of roasting kebabs, to hear the sounds of foreign voices, to see beautiful architectural details, to gaze upon miles of green space and to walk around in slippers and skirts all my days.
there's something, somewhere calling me out of structures, of efficiency, of hectic days, of loud jarring icons, of boundaries and borders.
maybe just for a little while.

ouch ouch ouch ouch ouch!

Just finished all the episodes of Sunao ni narenakute! hahaha :)
i think this person wrote quite a good review of the show.
hahaha.
episode 11 is good :) but before and after it's like, well. haha.
still, i dun like giving up on a series halfway, so i finished it!
yay.

i think from young i've always had a streak in me for wanting to defy authority.
or to confront anything i feel doesn't make much sense.
the rebellious streak!
tsktsk

there are times, once in a while, when i'd look at the things i owe and remmember the impermanence of things. not in a fatalistic negative point of view, but rather, a quiet acknowledgement that things on this earth are not lasting,
some day i'd die and memories of me will fade.
but prayerfully, the impact of people's lives will sustain.
with each thing we realize, we pass that knowledge and realization to others, so that others, having heard and now known, will take a shorter period of time to figure out new realizations.
this is how it is, and this will be how it will continue to be :)

someday, the day will come when i will no longer be able to communicate with you in the manner we are communicating now.
but it's okay.
for now, i'm greatly blessed by God:)

looks like i may really have to go to Italy :(
oh my money. oh my money. oh my money, you'd be gone~
you'd lost and gone forever, oh my money you'd be gone~

lol.
am still a little bit disturbed by the punch.
so i decided to do a little research.
i guess a playful punch is fine.
just not used to it O_o

i've always wondered how one takes care of a child for a lifetime.
and then i look at chi
and thought
maybe each day when they look at their children, they fall in love with them all over again.

funny.
haha.
being one of the KPs in school mean that you'd also get emails about YOG. LOL

Got woken up in the morning by 2 calls.
My online purchases were delivered personally to my house! haha. bought sk2 (30ml :\) online for my mum to try 'cos she's been hinting since start of May that she wants it. lol. funny to know that my mum wants such a thing. ah well.
very ex!! it's like the most expensive cosmetic item i've ever gotten O_O
okay.
then immediately after, received a call from my HoD. lol. with regards to the camp tmr :S haha. but actually, i really thank God for him. he's been guiding me through the process of preparing for the camp, in that he will do quite a lot of the paperwork for me, and yet he'd give me quite a lot of room in doing things too (e.g. selecting the kids, choosing the vendor, meeting up with the vendor, selecting the programmes i want...). i guess it just fitted nicely into the right measure of guiding and letting go that i need. and i'm really quite comfortable with his working style. yay.
camp tmr
faints

LOL
just thought of this
i've been seeing you 3 days in a row -.-
tmr'd be the 4th
then monday
then tuesday
faints.

i like to receive notes from people :D
it makes me glad that i was in their thoughts :D

inner child?
please mature :)
and grow :)

got reminded that it's not a competition :)
it's a war.

maybe sometimes porcupines just want someone who can hug them and still love them despite the spikes. and maybe no one will be able to do that but the porcupine's own creator.

God opposes the proud, but lifts up the humble.

lol.
i wonder how many times i need to drum it in before my pride will give in. hahaha.
sometimes really wish that it can be Jesus and me under the coconut tree~
hahaha.
