Weary update

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

In case you haven’t seen me recently I…curled my hair.
Yep.
This is the second time doing curls; my (tragically failed) attempt in Bangkok last year (I swear if I knew enough Thai I would go back and yell at the hairstylist for cheating me of my money) didn’t last more than three washes grr.

True to form, [...]

Dilemma

Monday, July 30th, 2007

My timetable is utter crap.
I have a completely empty day on Thursday and then lesson from 5.30pm to 7.30pm - but I have choir at 7.30pm.
Lesson on Fridays till 7.30pm, and I have cell group at 8pm (lucky this lesson only lasts till 10 Aug).
HOW?!
:(
I’m seriously considering if I should take another break from church [...]

‘One Evening’ by Feist

Monday, July 30th, 2007

Feist.
She’s got a voice like burnt toffee. Smoky and husky and brown and melty.
The evening was long, my guesses were true
You saw me see you
That something you said, the timing was right
The pleasure was mine
The time and the place, the look on your face
Sincerest of eyes
If you’re ready or not, the state of [...]

Lit Fest ‘07

Monday, July 30th, 2007

Went to see the Lit babies one last time at the Lit Fest debates at PLMG*SS.
We won two out three debates - I knew they’d be able to do it :) So proud of them and so pleased because they did really well, spoke clearly and gave damn good points in their debate; especially [...]

D’ome!

I watched The Simpsons!
Is awesome!
Germain warned me that I’d end up laughing at jokes that the rest of the audience wouldn’t get and he was right :P
There was this scene where they were jumping into the sandbox -
Bart: GERONIMO!
Lisa: SACAGAWEA!
Me: AHAHAHAHAAA!! HAHA! HA!
*embarrassed silence*
Me: Cough.
Guess I’m just about the only one in Singapore who [...]

One step at a time

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

I think the most important lesson that I keep telling myself is to listen to His voice - I keep telling myself that over and over again but I keep listening to myself in the end.
I don’t want to screw up my life anymore…I think it’s high time I really did grow up in my [...]

Photos oh I am so tired.

Photos, all of which are available at my Flickr page:
Birthday dinner with the TK girls. Been a long time since I had such a rip-roaringly funny dinner. Thanks darlings for the treat and for the lovely company.


Convocation photos.
It’s getting harder and harder to find time to actually touch my laptop for purposes other [...]

‘The Day We Find Love’ by 911

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Looking for the MP3 for this song :) Man, I love all these old music videos, they’re just hilarious. Check out his really earnest eyes and the two other band members singing along seriously behind him. :D

The man in the bowler hat, by A.S.J. Tessimond

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

This poem is silently terrifying. The Lit babies are doing this as part of a Literature Festival this Saturday; I helped them dissect and prac-crit it last week. It’s utterly disturbing and gut-wrenchingly sad.
The last stanza is especially arrow-through-the-heart.
I am the unnoticed, the unnoticeable man:
The man who sat on your right in the [...]
