Quite a busy weekend i had this week... BBQ yesterday, out for quite abit today, and i need to do laundry >.<~

Enjoyed myself quite a bit at the bbq yesterday! all the footprints were constantly poking fun at joyce for reasons withheld... lol... lets just say the impossible came true... yup... the food wasn't too great, but i still stuffed myself with... bee hoon lol... not much of bbqing was done on my part... cept for starting the fire... yep... there was otah, hot dogs (can't live without em), bee hoon, fried rice, chicken wings (unremovable from list of bbq food)... meanwhile... we were chatting quite a bit, with the sec 4 ijtp girls constantly bugging a few select people to buy tickets (russell inclusive). Russell being the quick-thinking person he is, told them he'd buy from them at the end of the bbq... but of course... they had sold all their tix already... kershia was high as usual, along with hector and gideon, dancing to music, cracking lame jokes etc... hector came armed with a camera and he used it like some covert ops agent, snapping candid shots everywhere. Did i mention that the band played some great music there? loud music thumping, food, company... blissful? heh...

And then came today... fp was abt the eucharist and blahblah... pretty insightful... and then there came the lecturing... for showing no initiative as youth leaders during the bbq and other occasions... not following instructions even though they told us nicely... hmm.. well... i dunno... but i think it's precisely bcos they told us nicely that we procrastinated abt going about the tasks... as for the bbq... imo, we went with a mood to play and help, not work... thats why we didn't follow what they wanted us to do i guess... or maybe just bcos we were too indulged in chat and fun that we didn't want to move around... oh well... wat's done is done... every experience is a lesson to be learnt... anyway... after that went for mass, and then we sojourned to ijtp! for the funfair of cos... lets see... 1st task was to find the aforementioned joyce... who was supposed to be the source of our free tix... but nooo she was low -_- anyway she told us her cute little sister received free tix, free food etc... so we thought of milking the cow for all its worth... but we didn't get the chance T_T haha... saw some familiar faces from cj there.. met the 2-5 bunch... and well... $$$ was spent on fishballs and ice cream... haha... just take it we supported the sec 4 joyce's stall... speaking of which... she was struggling with the ice cream scoop lol... the 1st cone i had came back without anything on top, and well... the next time it did it was melting all over =\ haha... anyway we walked abt lookin ard... den out of somewhere, this cup of chinchow came flying at sean... surprise was undoubtedly there... eyes looked in our general direction... sean remained calm though... and i applaud him for that... well we didn't let that affect us and we continued whiling our time away XD... after squandering the last remnants of our tix, me and russell proceeded to thomson area to meet up with leon and guo ming... haven't seen them in some time... so it was nice to see them all right (except for a minor oil control problem)... and we played till bout 6.30... playing cs then wolfenstein enemy territory then ut2k3... pretty fun... heh... and well... my skills at fps games have become non-existent haha.... main point was seeing leon and guo ming again tho... yup... so after that we parted ways... with me going back to bishan with leon to catch the mrt... we were both paupers lol... left with but a pittance to survive... and leon was going to marche. wow. i wonder how he survived, if at all... haha... and the stories of the legendary history dept at cj just keep coming... lol... spearheaded by jean yeow it's no laughing matter... =x

Back to school after tmr... YAWN~~ gonna be soooo bored... again... oh well... yep so i leave with a song by michelle tumes... probably unheard of... but go d/l it... rather spiritual...

Lovely - Michelle Tumes

You're the sweet dreams that soothe me
When I can't fall asleep
You're the field in the middle of the city
When I'm rushing by at the speed of light
You're the strong resolution when I find no peace
You're the church bells ringing in the evening
When all is quiet You whisper comfort
That lifts my heart
I get so weak

Chorus:
Ooh You're lovely, lovely
You're the center of my universe
A thousand times I look around me and I find
Ooh You're lovely, lovely
You're the center of my universe
A million ways could not explain
You're lovely

You're the soft words that touch me
When I just can't speak
You're the breeze on the ocean in the morning
Reminding me to greet the day
You're the flowers I remember seeing in Italy
Colors through a golden haze
Bright and radiant, soft and fragrant
In the noon day sun, it makes me sing

Chorus

I understand there may be grief
And there may be pain
But I'm aware You blind the darkness
With Who You are

Because...

Chorus
