I was on the train, sitting on a two seater yesterday. and opposite me i saw these two late twenties woman obviously having come from a body shop warehouse sale. they were talking about their good buys, their regrets at not buying "that strawberry-flavoured shower gel" and i could tell they were really enjoying themselves just chit chattering about stupid things and making fun of each other. i thought to myself, what a lovely picture of girlfriends. then somewhere from the bottom of my heart arose this feeling of (for a lack of better word) nostalgia. i just suddenly thought about my girlfriends and how much i really really missed them. i shall not be secretive cos there is nothing to hide. i really miss just going out spontaneously with jeannette, joanne and aileen. it feels like a million years since we can just set a date and really meet. sometimes i think, why is it SO hard to meet up and just go out. everytime we go out it must be like a damn big official date thing, something so significant that we make ourselves feel like " this is the big date to meet up with the girls, bcos we all know we'd not meet in the longest time after". well anyhow, this is just a passing feeling and after awhile life returns to its routine clockwork (not in a negative sense but just in a life goes on sense. haha)
Meanwhile, i'm really looking forward to the three months break. for one, i'd keep asking double j and ai out till they get sick of me. remb our breakfast @ tiffany's date and i don't care we're going out to shop and be girly and talk till our throats dry up then go fill our stomachs till we can talk somemore blah blah. on the other hand, i'm kinda psyched up to get an internship during the three months. Maybe at a production company, mediacorp or a magazine company. i'm gonna approach Zhi to discuss and maybe go find some lobang together. since there is no harm dreaming big, i'm hoping to go overseas for intern. maybe hongkong or taiwan. *fingers crossed*
Oh! life's been pretty exciting so far. the paths that had initially seemed rather rough had somehow smoothened out and really i must say that things will happen eventually in their own time (or rather God's time). i'm loving and enjoying my cellgroup and Leila so so much more. i'm loving my school so so much more ( i'm at the moment where i'm SO SO SO grateful to God for the 10000th time that i managed to get into NTUWKWSCI). i co-produced my first news clip with wenhan about two weeks back and did my first news presenting (albeit informal) last week! Visit SpectrumTV to see them. My news clip is on NTU's Draconika in Chingay found in Edition 1 and i'm presenting for Edition 2. =D
There are other exciting things to look forward to:
friday: cellgroup worship session
sat: emcee-ing for NTU open house and cellgrp outings: MENG MENG ISLAND!
wed: FETE Talentime. i'll be having my debut guitar playing cum singing performance. *i want to win the CASH*
However you might think of what has happened in NTU in the past two weeks, seriously, they are pretty much isolated cases and it would be really shallow to cast NTU into the pit of darkness cos of the deaths. ask me and i tell you i wouldn't trade my place in NTU for anywhere else.
Yah i know, so far my post is just quite random, i'm talking abt anything that comes to my mind. haha. not a very organised post. just not in a very literary mode today la. oh just wanna share something i read off pastor kong's blog which he read off warren buffet's book. "if you buy what you don't need, you'll eventually sell what you need." this phrase keeps coming back to me and helping me save these two days and hopefully for a long time to come. to end off just really wanna thank God for all the good things in my life, my church, my cellgroup, my family, my friends, my possessions and thank God for you. |=D
