soon. very soon.
Academic year ended 2009 is ending soon! Less than 48 hours and it’ll be freedom. It’ll be party time. (Ok, I know I’ve already been partying, but its different knowing I don’t have a 20 page report & 20min presentation nagging me at the back of my head.)
It’ll also mean JAPAN. (Skips around happily, and impatiently.)
Although I wish the world were smaller, so that I can just pop to another country in a matter of minutes, and costlessly, its impossible. Whilst the internet has flattened the world so, it still has its many inabilities. But be happy as a clam at what I have got in my hand already, shall remember lessons to self.
My lovely girls are home! I had Jinping & Shermaine back a few weeks ago. Then Friday brought Jiaying home. And today it was Michelle. (: Happy happy! And happy friends make me happy too! Like my Mayjean getting her dreams spot. YAY!
The gang, Mich, Brynner & Jeremy, – short of Jason, plus Kieren, and Vick later on – was damn fun. (: Ivin’s then itouch around the kitchen table whilst Jeremy & I rushed out our project. Then playing wii – Raving Rabbids TV Party – awesome.
just abc.
And I go, ‘Enough of this bullshit already.’
Because I know it doesn’t mean anything.
But I think I hear, but am not listening.
be as happy as a clam.
We imagine that we could have got so much. And then when we do get a certain substantial, but not the full amount, we get unhappy and disappointed.
Do we look back and realize that its better than nothing?
Or is it just how we view fairness. Is it fair that we are getting less than we can, but isn’t it fair enough to get more than our original position.
I’ll always remember what Haruki Murakami mentioned in a novel, that we want to apply fairness to everything, even though it probably only holds true in limited situations.
I think I should stay happy, and not reduce my happiness of thinking of whatifs, whynots.
baby steps.
Yesterday, I practically didn’t have lunch. So all through Japanese class, I was watching the time tick by, dreaming of supper at Chomp-chomp later that night with the gang. I was so hungry, that I think I almost had the urge to kill Jeremy & Jeremy’s brother when they were going to be late picking me up – I sat at Macs waiting, and pretending I couldn’t smell fries. I was dreaming of hokkien mee, sting ray, pasta, carrot cake. We had the first two items, plus a wonton mee. I was so gluttony! But it was so good.
So there was Mich, Vick, Jeremy, Brynner, Keiren and me, and we were just talking about all sorts of things, focusing on Brynner and his scandalousness, amongst other things. We already had about a third of our conversation on MSN that afternoon, but it was so much funnier in real life.
And then, Mich, Vick & I took our first baby steps into business. I AM SO EXCITED.
Today, Mich & I have taken our second step. And the next step is for me to book my plane ticket.
A plane ticket that will mean so much, in so many ways.
