Happy Birthday Singapore

Well, yesterday was National Day. Wonder if its just me, or is it really that this year, things were a lot more low-key. I mean, they had their fair share of fanfare I suppose. Only on sunday, I was with my cell group at the Esplanade, where we all squeezed like a moronic bunch of sardines for 2 hrs, just to catch a 5 min glimpse of the fireworks which occur every sunday for 4 weeks in a row. Yet the parade itself seemed to lack any real significance, esp in light of the fact that this is Goh Chok Tong's last ever National Day as PM. Ah well. Mebbe its only cos I stayed home all day. But I do belong to the grp that is gonna miss Goh Chok Tong. Think he was really quite something. Guess he ain't no LKY, but he held his own, and did pretty ok.

Been re-reading Kundera's Immortality, only cos I wanted to finish the book, but had already more or less forgotten everything that was in it. Ah well. Am enjoying my second read tho. Picking up lotsa stuff that I either didn't know, or forgot that I picked up. Been having this really bad stomach that trouble me no ends since sunday itself, when I had to lead worship last-minute cos John pulled out for health reasons. Sigh. I was utterly unintelligible on stage, absolutly focused more on where my stomach was going than on what God was saying. Hehz...

Paul's coming out tmr, (and yes Nut, he's in Queenstown Remand.) but I'll have to be trying to0 pull of a stunt, bidding for my modules while being there to receive him. Ah well. Guess I could always rely on someone to help me bid, and call me if anything screws up. =)

Quit from Joseph's office already, but I guess I owe him at least a completed write-up on his website. Will need to get working on that ASAP.

I keep having a lot to say when I'm outside, thoughts that I wanted to pen down. But whenever I stare at this god-forsaken screen, I can't seem to recall anything. Aaaarrgghh. THink I'm going mad. Really mad.

Think I actually miss Paul. A few times I picked up my phone to msg him before I stopped myself. Hahaha... I need to get a real girl man. Now if only there were any in my own social context. Bloody cell grp kepy making overtures abt Annie to me and her all through sunday. Bloody embarrassing for me and her la. Well... at least, for me...

And no, NUT... keep climbing Paul's ladder... stay off my turf. I have my own 15 yr old to deal with. Muahahahaha... Ruth's absolutely hilarious man. I think one day I shd arrange for me and Paul to let you two meet.

*Waits for Paul to digest last statement*

Grins. Welcome home, buddy.
