The past few entries bear uncanny resemblance to the newsfeed on facebook, albeit less frequent. Somehow i feel that short entires are better able to convey a greater depth.
Last weekend, my family attended the silver wedding anniversary of a family friend. In the recent years, i've watched the people around me fall in and out of love (and doing the same likewise) So i can't help but to think that 25 years is a long time for two people to share their lives with one another. I don't know the couple well, but i could tell that they share something inherently beautiful between them - like some sort of quiet knowing that can't fool the onlookers. From recieving well-wishers to the renewal of martial vows.. it was one of the most moving relationships i've ever witnessed. I've read enough Nicholas Sparks novels to quote the most awe-inspiring words on love, but there is just something special about a relationship with Christ. Of course, being the Peranakan family, there was also an interesting showcase of nyonya kebayas admist praise and worship throughout the night. It was an eye-opener, which i rather enjoyed.
Hospital havoc this afternoon - basically, i walked up to Mr Ang in the middle of physics tutorial, told him that i was feeling unwell, walked out of school and made my way to the doctor's. I spent good many hours with my ass planted on some foldable chairs outside Raffles Hospital, breathing into a face mask. Thank God for my mum - who was there for me. Honestly, she doesn't deserve to be spending hours of her precious time sitting outside the hospital, looking like darth vader along with me. While waiting, i became an expert in serving petty customers at Diner Dash and providing hot stone massages at Sally's Spa. Right now im still at risk of Influenza A (though it's really unlikely!) My dearest 09s18 seems to be counting on me to get them a 7 day quarrantine. You should have heard Vincent over the phone, he was practically yelling Please, just get h1n1 and spread to me!! Denise was all for being hospitalised together with me.
Where is the compassion, guys!!!
I've been collecting tiny Mr Men and Little Miss prototypes. They must be the most successful marketing gimmick 7-11 has ever came up with. Haha the store owner even confessed to me that she has been collecting those cute little rip-offs for herself.
And for once, i'm not looking forward to the weekends at all.

Try harder next time!"Dreams are always crushing when they don't come true. But it's the simple dreams that are often the most painful because they seem so personal, so reasonable, so attainable. You're always close enough to touch, but never quite close enough to hold and it's enough to break your heart." — Nicholas Sparks, Three Weeks with My BrotherThe truth is, it is devastating each time i pick myself up from where i fell, dust it off, smile and try to convince myself (and others) that
oh dear, perhaps whatever i've been fighting for is simply not part of God's will!

"Take my condition. The things I am supposed to be embarrassed about now — not being able to walk, not being able to wipe my ass, waking up some mornings wanting to cry — there is nothing innately embarrassing about them. It's the same for women not being thin enough, or men not being rich enough. It's just what our culture would have you believe. Don't believe it." - Tuesdays with Morrie, Mitch AlbomI've been writing alot less about my life, mostly because im more inclined to expressing myself in words when everything goes wrong. Bad hair days, unfortunate occasions such as bumping into the wrong people at the wrong place at the wrong time. Days whereby i wake up in the morning feeling melancholic and apprehensive. Nights whereby i stare into space,
wondering wandering, like an old man with Alzheimer's who has lost his way home. On days like these i slip into mild depression, and i ask God to please reconsider certain decisions He has made in my life (or at least turn the situation around to what i deem as ideal)
I refuse to keep a record of these things. I don't want to remember.
School's been okay, i think im just saying that because work has yet to pile up. We've been having alot of fun during breaks - taboo, uno stacko and monopoly! I chanced upon a mini collection of Nicholas Sparks novels in the school library, and im going to start re-reading all of those, starting with The Notebook :)

Happiness is a warm gunMel and i went back to st nicks, fought our way past several authority figures, and sat in my sister's Amath class. You have no idea how bloody difficult it is to enter school right now. They are so afraid that we'll spread h1n1 to the kids! Also, they recently recruited a few unfriendly security guards, and a primary teacher came so close to hollering when he spotted us creeping into the school canteen. The canteen, for those who don't know, happens to be where random people congregate(!!) Sooner or later they'll start projecting criss-cross laser beams in mid-air, and we'll have to..
I'd like a Beatles t-shirt :)
