*Kiss Goodbye*
Not only the song, but in reality also. How comforting would it be, to kiss goodbye with faith that it’s not goodbye after all.
So much happened in a short space of three days. Three days may seem short, but to sit down here and sort out this mesh of entangled thoughts is surely overwhelming. And to put them all in words, outlining every detail that made me in the pink of my mood is simply next to impossibility.
Despite the impossibility, it’s my duty to pen down my thoughts as far as possible.
Friday marked the end of yet another school week. But due to the impending Bio test my happy hours were marred by worries of not being able to comprehend my lecture notes, let alone taking the test myself. As you might have guessed, yes, I slept during lecture. There are two cycles in photosynthesis – the light and dark cycle. I was awake during the whole light cycle, but sank straight into my dreams in the dark cycle (fits in, huh?) What’s best? The lecturer actually finished the entire dark cycle in half a lecture! Therefore I missed the entire dark cycle. And I thought, well, I might as well study myself then. And whoala! I was stuck at the same page after a long time trying to make some sense out of it. I actually had a second chance to redeem myself, because the lecturer repeated the dark cycle to us again, in a separate lecture of course. But hell! I was so overloaded after what she taught, that I slept again when she talked about dark cycle.
Brilliant, isn’t it?
So the fear of not being able to catch any balls in photosynthesis drove me to do as much homework as possible on Friday night. I was surprisingly productive. Applause please.
Community work right in the morning on Saturday. It was the Cranes to Grains project. This is something much more meaningful compared to merely donating to the box. You are reaching out, as in literally, to those in need. Seeing their smiles across their faces was simply spiritually rewarding.
Flea market! It was drizzling a little when laogong and me reached cine. But the weather did not deter us from shopping craze at all! Things were going out at flat low prices! The whole process was simply enjoyable beyond description – going around examining piles and piles of clothes, the tingling sensation when you found something extraordinary among the common, and the best of all, getting the best price offered! Just one slight disappointment, when I went back to buy one particular top, the lady sold it out already! It’s so rare to find something which strikes me, and I just let the opportunity slip right through my fingers just because I went to see something else. *sigh* perhaps it’s fated. All in all, I was satisfied with what I bought.
Had a night full of fun (and cards) with the J1s. They are a bunch of kids so full of fun. We talked about a lot of things during rounds of bridge and dai di. Eventually it evolved to forfeit games. Basically it’s BlackJack, but after one person lost for three times, he will have to do a dare. Lose another three more times, and he would have to tell a truth. Yeah, a ‘mutated’ truth or dare. Ser Keong was the first to do a dare. Miss Stupidity suggested confessing to the cartoon on a vending machine. Xiaoqiang (ser keong) had to repeat what Miss Stupidity said, and he had to say them to the cartoon. Hilarious, I tell you, and the entire process was videoed with Ming’s phone. Which reminded me, that I’ve gotta take it from Ming some day later.
The next person was Nelson. This time he was to kiss Ming. The entire process was again, videoed by Miss Stupidity. We made him confess with our words and kiss Ming. The video sent everybody to giggling fits towards the end, where Nelson got kicked away when he was about to kiss Ming. In the end he really did! OMG! Those who want the video can get it from me:)
And I’ll remember the walk along ECP with Aulia today! The talks we had, the paths we walked upon, and the times he got so uptight whenever a dog approaches! I’m sorry man, but I love dogs! Hahaha next time I’ll ‘protect’ you from approaching dogs yeah!
As you can see, my weekend was so full of fun times. The discouraging fact? It’s Monday tomorrow, a schoolday coupled with group PE.
But another encouraging fact? Weekends come soon after weekdays!
