as the dawn of weekend approaches...

Today is A Friday. Hooray! I made it to provide an update within two days of my previous entry.

Before I forget, let me shout out a birthday wish to Ben (13th) and Alan (14th).

I’m sitting in my mom’s office entering this post after a spending half a day helping her to run her school concert. Finally after days of preparation, sweat and much stress, everything fell into place by the grace of God. True, there’s much room for improvement, but I do feel that everybody involved put in their best for today. There was marked improvement exhibited by every performing group. And these are primary school kids who have invested much time and effort into putting up a grand show for today!

The major bonus is of course, to be able to forge new friendship, and bonds with those I worked with for this project. Naturally speaking my brother Leon was part of this project too. My mom sure activated all the resources that she had!

After having hung around a school environment for days, I’ve realised I do miss my school days: The days of innocence, where everything begun and ended with the signalling of a bell, and we went gaga over simple things like the Pilot pen, erasers of every country we would buy (not to use, but to play with) and the talks of hanging out at the nearest shopping centre after school. Then, Thomson Shopping Centre and Junction 8 were the coolest places in our little world.

Then as we grew up, we learnt more about friendship, politics, fell in and out with ourselves, and learnt to be more careful with choices. We learnt about relationships I still can’t believe I had my first experience at Primary 5. Predictably, it didn’t last. We chose to end the relationship because, uhm, we ended up in different secondary schools. Right.

The most memorable relationship I had was in Sec 2. I tried so hard to chase this girl, got her at last (with a little help from my friends of course) and then broke up over some silly issue. We fought and quarrelled a lot, but we knew that this relationship was one to remember with sweetness. Almost ten years later, we’re still in contact. I dare say we’ve really made our marks on one another.

Ah, puppy love.

I feel really old to be turning another year older in a couple of days. It really rocks knowing that you can’t even earn yourself a green note for change when you tender red notes.

As I approach this magical age I’m looking forward to be blessed with a partner. Not for the sake of status, but one that I can grow and mature with, and experience things together. Above all Id like to know what it is really like to love somebody.

Funny post? Yep, attribute that to a really tired me. But hey, I mean every word I say here!

“Attention, its time to dance”
