haha, yes amelia ma'am. Hopefully I will get to finding a new tagboard this weekend.
Procrastinating a bit now.
Today was a nice day. Lagging on work, so I'll have to spend a day catching up. Hope this lag will be made worth it, but I highly doubt so.
Joined the run. It was supposedly the 3.6 km but I do not know exactly how much I ran. Though the pace was slow, but it seriously feels longer than 3.6km. And the run was actually okay, because I wasn't thinking about stopping or anything. Instead it was somewhat a kind of meditation, because my mind was blank. So nice. The feeling after the run is so nice, but I'm having a headache now (because of not cooling down properly I think) and my body feels so nua.
Waiting for tomorrow to be over. Erps.
Oh yes, I wanted to say hahaha, my phone has been revived. So amazing. I am so glad and relieved. Dropped it into the washing machine one fine morning. It had never happened before, and of all days, there was water (when normally there isn't). Left it to dry for a few days (two?) and woohoo it works perfectly fine, or so it seems. Yippee.
Only worked for 15 days this month. One month sounds like a lot, but when you say 15 days, then it is like... Either way, time is really passing fast. It is already wednesday.
Interactions between people are really interesting to watch. And conversations are equally interesting to eavesdrop to. Not that I intentionally do so, but I just get distracted easily.
I am still undecided. But this can wait.
So severely unprepared. 怎么办. I am so going to fail it.
Nothing specific to look forward to this week. I am going running tomorrow. And I probably won't join the rock-climbing, though it sounds fun and it is so cool! But it is necessary to prioritize. [Still switching in between the american and british spellings, argh.] Hopefully, there will be something at the cc this weekend.
Today was fun. And funny actually. I already have muscle ache and I am happy. Haha. It was actually kind of awkward before juniors came. But before and after were both entertaining, especially after. Wu-ed a bit of welcoming and walked for a bit. A bit but enough to satisfy me, who has not done dalt for ages. And one of the best part of today was the shi performance. So awesome.
Met eeling in school yesterday, and saw jiaolian at the mrt station this morning. It is always a pleasure to meet someone you know (even an acquaintan7. ce) unexpectedly. Coincidental meetings are (: Thought about this on the way home earlier and it put in a good mood, I suppose.
What is the point in telling me? As if I want things to be the way it is now. Huh. All of this is so damn screwed up.
Have not stayed up this late for a couple of days now. To be precise, two.
So many things I don't want to think about. Damn it.
7 or should I say 6. Not much time left.
You know when people have conversations that are within hearing distance... I always can't help but listen to these conversations. Today I was so tempted to go in and 插一脚. But it really does not make sense.
Seeing a lot of nice shoes around and I am envious. I think I am going to have to start the cycle already, which is kind of sad and somewhat stressful. Oh wells, I don’t have much choice because I definitely don’t have the money to continue buying so often.
I need to buy insoles, because my flats are way too flat. I bought mink oil yesterday. It’s like kiwi neutral polish minus the smell. Hopefully there will be no more blisters after this.
The environment is interesting and the people are so funny. But no matter what, it is still kind of scary. I wanted to say “what’s more, it is a different place”, but while typing that I realise that maybe no, if it was the same, it would be scarier. Yes, no? I have no idea.
Still hating the adult fare, because it is really sucking away all my money that can be better spent on much nicer stuff.
I look so old today, alamak. The shirt is nice, but doesn’t suit me. Sad.
Sometimes, people are put in difficult positions, where it really seems like nothing can be done. Like, what can you do about it? Taking action might further agitate others and make the situation you’re facing worse. Not taking action is simply wrong totally unfair to you. Then what? The only idea I can think of it to talk, but I am sceptical about the effect it would have. When a perception exists and such a situation has already arisen, then I wonder how effective will the talk be. Probably not very?
Is it time I started again? My perseverance is so pathetic. Or maybe I’m just selfish and can’t be bothered. Everyone is selfish to some extent, I believe, though there are indeed acquaintances that might be able to challenge this. Note that I said acquaintances.
When do you who and when do you use that? That for collective noun? Because I used who and then Word corrected me. Only people who OR that are suitably qualified will be chosen. Hm.
The past week has been interesting. Spent Sunday with the ploty people. Went to sing and had dinner and icecream. I really went broke, but the food was not bad and the company was awesome. The company on Monday was equally awesome. Sqdms planned to go to pitstop and we ended up at some Jap restaurant. The food was good and the servings were large and the price (though expensive for me) could be considered reasonable for a restaurant I guess. Walked by the river for a bit and we sat down at some stairs. I happened to be walking at the back with melia and hong so I knew about the cake. And yup, they were so long and it was kind of funny.
Ah, it is such a pity that we all had to leave early. It would be so awesome if we could have stayed out late. To sit by the river and talk. All the way into the night, as the place clears. How romantic (: But that will probably only happen only if we can stay over at someone’s one, hinthint.
