it's all hidden
when i couldn't manage to get an offer to complete my internship this summer, i was - discouraged of course and i thought it would be another 3 months tat'll go to waste.. but somehow, it doesn't really seem so..
thank God for time to rest and recharge..
thank God for time being able to know ppl around a lot better..
thank God for opportunity to work in a different environment out of my comfort zone..
thank God for sessions tat i'll remember, nite or day..

no breakfast...
woke up a fair bit earlier than usual time - 8.30am it shows on the clock..
felt like eating breakfast.. only to realize tat my bread has mould on it (man! when was the last time i ate breakfast?) so i thought, the soy drink i bought yesterday would do for now.. poured myself a cup and took a sip while walking back to the room.. i stopped on my tracks.. ughh, it tastes weird.. it can't be expired rite???? i just bought it yesterday!! GRrr, they can't be selling expired stuffz..
returning to the fridge, i read the expiry label on the soy drink bottle.. nah, it's still fresh according to the date.. then i read the main label.. aus fresh, non-dairy soy drink.. NON-DAIRY??!?! (i wanted to knock myself on the wall)
remembering a female fren (let's call her A) said to me, 'u Guys never do read the labels properly most of the time do u??' wat could i say, since i bought her something else from wat she wanted..
moral of the story?? --> wat A said ain't totally true.... ok ok, no more defending.. read the labels jon!!!!!
result of own doing?? --> no breakfast.. well, not really.. i had to gulp down the whole cup.. can't waste it rite??
non-dairy soy drink --> still thinking wat to do with it.. too wasted to throw away, quite a suffering to finish the whole thing as well.. maybe sam will like it?? heheh

first day...
there she was - Mrs McGuire, standing at the front yard when i arrived.. with her sunnies and a white cap tat says 'capital'.. 'neat garden' i said to myself and gave a smile and a warm handshake as she greeted me.. and there was this black poodle wagging his tail excitedly at the door, inside of the house.. 'Anzo' was his name, italian apparently..
and my predictions were rite, she is a kind lady indeed.. spent 2 hrs pulling weeds, trimming some outgrowned bushes, clearing dry leaves on the ground, getting pricked by thorns from the rose bushes.. well, actually half of the time we ended up talking and a huge amount of the time i listened to her stories.. really gonna enjoy this =)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
went for badminton yesterday, played for an hr.. and tot i'd shoot a few hoops b4 leaving while the rest continued with badminton.. derell joined in after a while.. 2 guys came over and asked us for a 3-on-3.. well, y not?
'dek~~!' big mistake.. not when i haven't been doin' much exercise.. they ran, i ran after.. they jumped, i raised my hand.. they dribbled, i dragged my feet.. didn't feel the tiredness, but i know my legs were giving way.. man, i've grown real weak.. gotta train up my stamina..
had dinner after tat, had a good time talking to Ignatius.. revelations.. cleared uncertainties..
no condemnation..

past week's been lot more productive than just bummin' at home and stone off most of my time..
let's compare,
the week before:
- normal routine, wake up, stone, eat, watch dvd, wait for calls, eat..........
last week:
- normal routine (minus the stoning part and watching dvd)
- search for house
- went for interview
- went for meetings
- sent ppl to the airport
- fixed marianne's bike (not completely done yet) and did a bit of tuning for my own..
- did a bit more exercise
- read a lot of 'Memoirs of a Geisha'.. still a lot to go, i'm a slow reader..
i mean even thou it wasn't much of what's being done.. but just felt the productivity-ness compared to doin' nothing at all..
thank God tat i've got a part time job.. a really simple one, but think i'm loving it even before starting.. knowing tat i'm gonna love wat i'll be doin' and it'd be great pleasure to serve an old and somewat sounded like a kind lady.. glad to know tat it'd be a job i'll be able to continue even when uni starts..
-------------------------------------------------------------------
excited!!
i'm getting excited.. yet a lil' nervous at the same time.. knowing tat wat i prayed for 3 years ago is coming to past =) it's always about God's timing..
today, i made another prayer.. and i know it will require me a lot of patience to wait.. months maybe.. even a year or so.. but i know it's worth the wait.. and i shall wait..
excited excited!! dunno how will i react at the same time.. but it's all good =))))))))))
