"if i were to leave the world anytime soon, today would be a perfect day."
i just suddenly had this somewhat emo, depressed thought came running in my mind at some point of the day.
not that something unpleasant, depressing or discouraging had happened to me and neither was i feeling extremely depressed.
basically i have two reasons why i felt this way.
1) i had a 2.4 km run practice today and i clocked 15 plus mins which was a huge improvement from my usual 17 plus mins timing. (i had accomplished something quite astonishing to me = no regrets anymore)
2) i seemed to have seen and/or talked to almost every single person whom i know and treasure in my entire life through various forms of interactions.
>>>
verbal: long vs short conversations, face-to-face vs over-the-phone, hi-s and byes
>>>
written: self-initiated vs received sms-es, replied vs unreplied sms-es, msn
>>>
physical contact: a pat on the shoulder vs poking at the side of the ribs
>>>
visual: eye power
this is what happens when you are left all alone to reflect on the day.
such thoughts full of gratefulness and emo-ness are what you get.

Childish Indulgence Gives Me Happiness (CIGMH)-with the courtesy of The "Hot" One x)
i like this phrase alot.
it was actually a passing comment made by The "Hot" One.
but i seemed to have such fond attachment to it that i immediately wrote it down somewhere in my lecture notes.
even the act of jotting it down and giving it abbreviations already gave me a quirky sense of happiness.
childish indulgence, that's what we do to get by each dreadful day in school and to give our dull mundane life a little jolt of amusement.
like dribbling and drawing incessantly onto our notes throughout lectures, fighting over our imaginary lover, watching the uncle wash the floor with great fascination, trying to do CPR in attempt to revive a dying flower...
how to survive the stressful JC life?
CIGMH is the answer.

in a wink of an eye, it is already the last day of chinese new year.
=no more ang baos :(
today was a pretty good day i would say.
some of the guitar members had an unusual mission today.
haha we were to play the songs which the people had dedicated to their friends or classmates as part of the friendship day celebrations.
my group, which consists of shurlene, pauline and myself, performed for two dedications.
played 'dui mian de nv hai kan guo lai' at 9.45am and 'hey there delilah' at 12.45pm.
it was unexpectedly fun and enjoyable!
hugely because the two classes which we performed to were rather enthu and very encouraging. :D (despite the apparent mistakes and screw-ups we made eg. forgetting the lyrics, uncoordinated singing and playing and forgetting the notes/chords..)
but it was also these flaws that made the entire process alot more funny and lighthearted.
i couldn't help smiling in embarrassment and amusement for the next 30 mins or so esp after the 'dui mian de nv hai kan guo lai' performance. haha!
oh man, i dun mind playing for this kind of song dedications every week cos it makes me feel really happy. :)
but sadly, this activity only lasts for two days.
and i have no more business tmr. :(
haha this shall become a pleasant piece of memory in my life.:)
speaking of friendship day, i received a very touching and meaningful msg from evonne last night.
it says:
有一天，天爱上了海，可是空气阻隔了他们，
他们无法相爱，天哭了，
泪水落在海里，
即使不能相爱，
天也要把灵魂托给海，
从此海比天蓝。。。
当所有人在关心你飞得高不高时，
只有少数人在关心你飞得累不累，
这就是朋友。
爱+爱 =非常爱
爱-爱 =从头爱
爱*爱 =无限爱
爱/爱 =唯一爱
spread the love
today everyday!
:D
