Darn Phone.....

I almost didn't want to wake up this morning.

Was having this long and nice dream. This dream was actually composed of 3 scenes: 1st scene I am in a clinic; 2nd scene I am on a tour bus, and the 3rd scene I am having this Japanese steamboat with my frens.

Wat really made this dream nice is the 2nd scene, which featured a long lost fren of mine (yes, female fren. Why else will it be so very nice?). Exchanged contacts and had a few words. Also featured in the scene was a super sloppy ex-colleague of mine, who was sitting next to my fren and having evil design on her. Hey, isn't this my dream? So why ain't I holding a club and clobbering this sloth of a guy to death?

Was happily in the 3rd scene when my hp rang. It's my sis asking me for some little help. So with this call, I woke up to another boring day (but the sky was gray and it rained cats and dogs, so it's still fine).

Cold, Wet and Happy

It rained today and that makes it a good day. The sky had been cloudy since morning and I was hoping it will not be like yesterday, which for better half of the day the sky was cloudy and then it cleared up in the evening. So when it starting raining, I am so gald.

I like it when it rains, especially those heavy rain. I missed those time where I am stuck in the heavy rain, cold and wet and doing whatever I was doing. It has always been exciting, and the shower afterwards was always so satisfying and comforting (I prefer a cold water shower over a warm water shower. It jus makkes me feel so alive).

It was raining especially heavily around 6 o'clock jus now, thunder and lightning and all. I feel so like going out for a run in the rain. But my dad was home and dinner was almost ready. Maybe next time then.

Friday, Saturday, Sunday

Had a nice weekend. Met up with 3 groups of frens on Fri, Sat and Sun.

The first group of frens I met was my sis's pri sch classmates (yes, we go a long way back... used to hang ard with them tog with my sis, who is a yr older than me). It was to celebrate the birthday of one of them. My sis and I met them at this coffee shop in Geylang. Talked until late into the night about life at large... and more.

Then on late Sat afternoon, I went to ECP for the canoeing camp and met up with Andrew, Melissa, and the rest of the current com of Canoeing Sub-Club. The turn-out for the camp was great. 30 participants in all, and all of them were sporty and sporting, even the gals (no girly types, yeah....). After the participants went to rest, I joined Andrew and Co for a ride back to NUS, then coffee at McCafe when we went back to ECP at 2am. The catching up was great, but I was there for the kayaking. So after 4 hrs of sleep, I joined the participants on their way back to kallang in the morning. The water was too calm.....

I reached home in the afternoon on Sunday. Had one hour of sleep before I met with with my JC track and field mates in the evening. Was supposed to meet at this prata shop behind SR, but it was no longer there. Settled for another prata shop beside Superbowl. I found the gathering a bit too quiet, although HY was providing all the jokes as usual by making fun of MW who was whiney as usual. Nontheless, it was a nice gathering. Really hope we can do it again soon.

After a boring and uneventful week, it is so good to have such a nice weekend where I get to catch up with so many dear frens of mine. With all of us being busy either with work or studies, it is getting more and more difficult to meet up. I wonder when will I meet them again.....

The Big Shift

And so this is it. Welcome to my new blog and you're reading my first official post here. As you all might/might not know (or gather) by now, I had a blog in another universe. But that is another story (since it is in another universe anyway), and you all jus have to start with this post if you wanna know what's going on in my life.

So, to round off this post, I'm jus going to allude to why I decided to leave my previous blog and start this new one by quoting a scene from episode 16, season 2 of House:

(Here's the background: Wilson found out his wife is having an affair, and moved out to stay with House. House then did everything he can to made Wilson's stay as miserable as possible, and tried to prevent Wilson from leaving.)

House to Wilson about staying at his place: "Decided I wanted you to stay."
Wilson: You're miserable, and you're lonely, and you're going to trap me here to keep me every bit as miserable and lonely too!
House: Yeah, and you're happy happy happy.
Wilson: Ok, hey, I'm obviously going through a rough patch here. Your wife leaves, tends to bum somebody out....
House: So what? What did I do to you? I scammed you into doing the dishes, made you sit on the steps. I didn't kill your puppy. I did not make you miserable.
Wilson: Oh, so this is therapy?
House: No... just makes me smile.
Wilson: All right, I'm finding a new place tomorrow.
House: Right, but not tonight.
Wilson: Well I figure you wanna shave my eyebrows while I'm asleep I wouldn't want to deprive you of that last smile.
House: You're not going anywhere. You're going to sit on my couch, and depress us both because you just can't admit that it's over with your wife.
Wilson: That's right, I'm here on vacation.
House: You gotten a lawyer yet?
Wilson: That's— that's— not—
House: You even called one? As long as you're here, it's just a fight. As soon as you get a place, then it's a divorce. Everything sucks. Might as well find something to smile about."
