"These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth."

Childhood dream part deux
Yup there is still something in me that wants to act. After watching Whose Line is it Anyway?, and reading up a little on Improv comedy, I yearn for the opportunity to try. But I don't think that will happen in Singapore. :(
One of my favourite Narrate game, by two of my favourite improvisers. :) They almost seamlessly improvised each others' parts. Enjoy.
One more day to Felicia's wedding! Tomorrow will be helping out with the church decor, then on Saturday itself it's one whole day gone. Haha. Not much time left to study. But, hey, not everyday you'll see a wedding. (I realise I use many null subjects while writing blog posts. Haha!) One more day to the wedding and I'm popping pimples. -.- But, what the hey! It's not my wedding, and I'm not the highlight. Hahaha!
I'm going to school everyday to study. Little help, 'cause I still daydream my hours away, but at least that's better than staying at home. I'll youtube my hours away at home. -.- I'm so busy I don't even have time to talk to my bro after he came back from Cambodia, or look at those pics. Must be great, mission trips. I WANT TO GO TOO!!!! CGC, WHEN ARE WE GONNA GO TO CEBU AGAIN?????
Quite a number of my girl friends are married/going to marry/with kids/going to have kids. As I read some of their blogs, it strikes me how they are so 幸福小女人. And I realize how I try to distance myself from being like that. I am not a feminist, but this whole idea of going ga-ga over having a baby, having a husband, or even getting married makes me shiver. (Do NOT get me wrong! I don't despise my girlfriends' lifestyle at all! I admire them and and am happy for them totally. I'm talking about my issue with myself.) I'm not sure if this whole marriage thing is for me really. I can't imagine having my own children, seeing how terrible many children around me are. Even Christian children. It's enough to deter me from having a family. But I'm not a feminist! I don't know what am I. Maybe I just prefer a life of being free from this sort of burden.
A sidenote: I finished the whole of my morphology and syntax essay (at least my part) with "Ben" playing over and over. Haha. Nice song. By MJ, back when he was black, normal, and a kid. Quite meaningful lyrics. Don't know about the movie, but the song is very nice. Look for the original MJ one, it's the nicest of all other renditions.
In the event that this is true, it is a great shame for Christians. Why do we feel ashame of our stand? It's worse to make a double statement than to be bashed by gay right activists for supporting prop 8. Now he has both gay right activists and prop 8 supporters' scorn.
Thoughts that pop up as I drag myself through this day
1) It's not that I don't want to contribute to the report, I am just not smart enough to do right such that it will save you from editing and editing.
2) I'm having a headache and it's all my fault. I really want to change my lifestyle. :(
3) Some friends are graduating. I will miss them! :(
4) Bro is going to Cambodia. So during weekdays it's gonna be an empty house again. Wonder why did I bother upgrading the broadband. No one uses it. And I want to visit a mission station too!
5) Am not looking forward to the exams. Am looking forward to the holidays. Can't leap across time though.
6) It feels horrible to be not smart enough / lazy.
7) I miss hanging out with friends. I miss freely joking and bantering with friends. I miss relaxing without worrying what unfinished work there is to do.
8) Eating dinner tonight with family to celebrate daddy's birthday early. Since Z will be in Cambodia on daddy's birthday.
9) The uncertainties of the Canada trip sucks.
10) If I'm going to Ottawa, I can see Colin Mochrie and Brad Sherwood perform!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOTZ!
