7.47 and there's a raucous riot downstairs
oh haha someone's getting married and they're haggling over the bride price(?) the angpao thing. and there's a little boy screaming at random times.
it's okay they have their exciting experiences in life and i have mine!
or had.
yesterday priscilla and i went bravely to east coast park in spite of the frigid,bleak,windy,rainy weather and i sincerely had a lot of fun although it wasn't the conventional kind of sunny weather people normally go to the beach for. but as we cycled the wind was blowing
**aiyoh they're singing xiaowei and the boy is still randomly screaming as accompaniment?**
so it was cold but totally cool because there were no crowds! i hate crowds. i think God didn't answer my prayer for sun because i didn't need it.
yes so we were talking all the way from when we met in school to the busstop, on the bus and even while we were cycling, when we were at the jetty and during dinner where i ate 1.tangyuan in ginger soup(Y) and carrot cake and popiah and coconut water <3!
and i felt very relaxed and calm and carefree. though there are a million things in my mind now. that i need to (1) study (2) study very hard(3) study very very hard,all the time (4) i need to take sats 1 and sats 2 one of these days(5) i need a system! (6) study study study (7) a lot of work to do(8) cg stuff (9) other people have advanced upwards so fast they're above the ozonelayer(10)study to the power of infinity!
and on the other hand i have all these theoretical stuff in me. like (1) matthew 6:33-34 but seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well. do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. each day has enough trouble of its own(2) comparing doesn't get me anywhere(3) study for God, not for myself(4) consistent work! (5) sleep is important to be sexy slim and smart (6)stress doesn't get me anywhere (7) time for yourself is important for emotional health (8) exercise. (9) work hard for better things later!(10) live for Christ!
i think i'm just not ready to be 18.
but at least i have added good memories and emotions to my memory bank because of cycling yesterday! of slopes and closing my eyes to really feel the whoosh of wind and to internalize the feeling of bliss and calm and carefree-ness!and tangyuan in ginger soup warmtangysweetchewy.
and a mishmash of maroonmagentapurpleviolet skies and sea when we were cycling back to return our bikes. my favourite kind of sky color! and red skies.and skies chockfull of cumulus clouds. i just like to see expanses of skies:D
we talked about prom night a bit, i reflected on it quite a lot and apart from dressing up to the max in the regal, extravagant,pageant sense there is no other draw factor and hence i think i will not go because i hate taking photos and i'd rather dress up more times for other random occassions because i love dressing up but i don't love prom.
if only deciding to study was so clear cutX(
**all is quiet now the groom must have succeeded in breaking into his bride's house and heart**
CANDICE! â¥
