Finally its the start of our very first e-learning week at NIE. Having had two whole days of fun-filled activities, i'm lazing around at the comfort of my own home, sleeping in and enjoying some well deserved time with my dog. It's not often that i get to laze at home, enjoy the nice weather and sleep in. Seriously, i got to do this more often. Too much running about is putting a strain on my health, both mentally and emotionally. I would have to say the past two days was well spent though. Not forgetting to mention that the past two days were spent with my precious as well.
1st September 2007 My busiest weekend eversince i started school. Kicked off the day with Kbox at Marina Square. My last ever meet up session with Zhenyuan and Huiling before they leave for China. Nevertheless, we had an enjoyable time. I'm really glad we managed to meet up even though we've all been busy.
After singing, Baby and i headed to the Esplanade to catch our very first performance at the esplanade, Burn the Floor - Floor Play! Was it amazing to see those scantily clad dancers strut their moves! Seated at the first row, i was practically drooling away. Luckily darling was beside me to distract me from ogling at those really good looking guys! All in all, it was a fun afternoon and am i looking forward to my ballroom dancing class with darling if that ever happens! Ballroom dancing will never be the same again!
Caught 1408 to sum up the hectic yet enjoyable afternoon. Wasn't really a nice movie though i was shocked to death for the first part of the movie. John Cusack is a really good actor but apparently, the movie lacked depth and it all ended off too abruptly leaving me clueless about certain stuff. Hotel rooms truly are a scary place. I've heard many stories about it. Perhaps i should stay away from hotel rooms as much as possible. Room 1408, anyone?
Soccer was another boring affair for me. This time, i truly slept throughout the match and i didn't even wake when Man U scored the goal against Sunderland! I guess i was really tired to start with and soccer really isn't my thing. I still have to thank my baby for accompanying me the whole day. Thank you sweetheart. I love you to bits.
2nd September 2007 Sunday wasn't as bad as Saturday for i slacked the day away. Had a rather nice dinner at granny's house. We celebrated her 81st birthday. Imagine that! She's a healthy 81 years old! Many thoughts ran through my mind upon leaving her house mainly, life and death. I see my aunties and uncles gathering around my granny just to spend a few more moments with her on her birthday. A rare sight i would say because i dare say this is the first time i've ever witnessed such a touching sight. The whole family gathered together as one, sharing about their life and behaving like they really are a closely knitted family. Why all these hypocrisy? Why all this talk of filial piety when you all know that the end is near? Why start to cherish only when you know you haven't got much time left? I want to be happy when my loved ones leave this place and not crying and wailing that i haven't got enough time for them. I don't want to be cherishing them only when their end is near. I don't want to follow in my relatives' footsteps. I want to be different. I want to cherish every little thing i have of now.

Sweet, sweet sweet!! Cookies from the Cookie Musuem. A teacher's day present from darling to me.
