Note: I wanna apologise first, for the second half of my post.
I can get quite incoherent with my thoughts.
[Which is why someone mentioned before
that she really wants to know what's going on in my head.]
Okay.. Here goes take two...[
I've calmed down significantly]
[
I forgive you, Blogger.]
[
Just saying.]
*cough*Regarding the Japan trip,
I'm currently waiting for someone to pass me the last batch of photos/videos,
so that I can collate them/have better material to work with.
I might even make a short video if I can. :)
[
MAYBE.]
So we shall shelf the trip for now.When I got back,
my sister dragged me out at noon for a gel manicure.
[
It sounds like an okay time, but I slept at 5am because of the flight.]
[
So it was insane for me.]
Now, I don't wanna sound crazy girly and stuff,
but man, gel manicures are something else.
My nails look like the glass heart necklace this Italian dude gave to me at Venice,
[
It's not what you think it was]
except instead of being infused with silver, it now looks like it's infused with
bronze.
Pretty. :)So if you ever get a Groupon voucher for it/promotion package,
you should totally do it.
On
Friday,
I went to meet a friend at Starbucks,
but it became quite a misadventure.
You see,
when I was at the train station,
I realised that I did not bring my wallet with me.
So I went back.
[
Which is totally fine because it happened due to my stupidity.]
BUT.When I reached the train station a second time,
both of my sandals
snapped.
So I had no choice but to dump it into a bin and walk home
barefooted.
And mind you,
I live on a hill.It was one of those 'you can't be serious' moments turned into JFL moments in hindsight,
but people were staring at me like I was a country bumpkin/barbarian.
Or at least, trying to be one.
So it's not funny.
[Still not, actually. -__-]
And if that wasn't bad enough,
On Monday,
I was at a park scouting for an upcoming event this Saturday.
And once again, my sandal's string snapped.
[Only one, this time round. But still.]
So yeah.
Srsly.
I don't understand why my shoes are always like that. :/
*frustrates*
Moving on,
Sunday.
I attended my cousin's wedding in the evening.
It was ok.
Cause to be honest, I only see them once a year,
so I didn't know her name for the past 20 years of my life,
until I saw it on the wedding placard thingy.
[Bad, I know. But once a year, okay?]
Warning: This is where I get contemplative.
Stop now if you don't wanna get into my head.
I warned you.
Imagine my expected dismay,
to be seated at a table full of strangers.
[Who are my relatives]
And two courses into the dinner,
[when I was sufficiently fed]
I started making contact with them..
Because I wanted to.
[Haha looking back, making contact sounds like I'm collecting intel from them.]
Which came as a huge shock.
Because six months ago,
my reaction would be:
Oy, Imma eat ma food, and you there, be quiet.
No disturbin', you hear?!
And here I am, being genuinely interested in their lives.
Which made me think hard.
I've changed.
Which made me think harder.
God sure works in unseen ways!
He is so amazing. :D
Well,
I told you guys that I was at the park on Monday.
[Sudden change in topic]
It's for an event to help connect our youths to their contacts.
Get to know them better and stuff like that.
So there'll be ultimate frisbee, touch rugby etc...
To tell you the truth,
nothing really eventful happened recently.
[ANOTHER sudden change in topic, see what I mean?]
It's just that on Monday, Tuesday and today,
I've been thinking a lot about the Japan trip
[When I've got nothing to do]
and what I would be doing if I were still there.
My perspective's changed.
My actions might not say it yet,
but it all starts on the inside, right?
I guess I'll elaborate more in the future.
But now, a job offer's popped up,
a social worker sort of work.
Should I take it? Or not?
*contemplation*
And two people stopped me at different times,
to take two different surveys at the same place. -____-
[It's like I've got 'SURVEY ME PLS' written in bold on my forehead.]
[You could say it's a change in topic]
And both were about my future and stuff like that.
And I realised that I don't really plan for my future.
But I'm happy being like that.
Maybe it's because I'm not lacking in essential things,
like worrying about paying the bills...
But I also feel that,
as long as God's with me,
I'm fine letting Him do the planning.
[Easier said than done, tho]
And marriage and family's been popping up a lot recently.
[Trust me, I'm not even seeing anyone yet.]
ARGH!
[Abrupt end]
A thank you grateful [You'll know in the future] note to everyone:
I'm sorry, guys.
I don't like to dish out emo stuff,
but sometimes, writing it out helps a little,
in sorting out my thoughts.
Be my spongebob for a day, okay? :)
Okay, I don't really sound thankful.
I was more apologetic.
Lemme change that.
... [See top.]
There, better. Right? :)
