| Over the weekend |
Life has never been more hectic, and i am never more sleepy as now. Why do people like to meet early in the morning. I am so not a morning person.
Anyway, over the wkend I met up with some of my secondary classmates and seeing them again, really reminded me of the past. Among the 7 that met, I am the only one thats still studying, 2 are mothers and the rest working. While reminiscing about the past, I realised that there was so things that happened in the past that I do not know of, n my gosh, wasnt i soo shocked.
However, I really take my hat off at 1 particular classmate of mine. I am so impressed with her determination despite all that she has to go through. She got married at 18 and soon 2 kids came along. While expecting her 2nd kid, she and her hubby went thru some glitches in their marriage thus resulting in her suffering from pre and pro-natal blues. While she n her hubby ironed out their differences and decided to try to make things work out, someting happened to her 2nd kid. He has a hole-in-the heart, and after a few bouts of lung infection, he went into coma and woke up with his brain being damaged. My friend now has to devote all her time looking after him. She can no longer hold a regular job and has to look after the kid's every need as he cannot walk,talk or sit. She said that her biggest wish is for his recovery and deep down, thats my wish too. Seeing how she and her hubby toils daily for their kids, and constantly worry abt medical bills, I feel lucky yet ignorant. While we started at the same point, we chose very different paths. While she faces real problems and heavy responsiblities, I am wondering where should my next holiday be and hiding under my parents' umbrella. I really applaude her determination and positive attitude. Just want her to know that no matter what, I will always be rooting for her, cheering her on. =)
okies on a happier note.................. not so happy after all..... I missed my Desaru trip!!!! All thanks to the unreliable information on the booking website. We missed our ferry and did not want to wait for the next one as it will be 5pm! Only found out upon arrival at Changi Ferry Terminal. Rujin's dad dropped us at Tenah Merah Ferry Terminal as he asked us to go Batam instead, but we decided to go to Changi Beach Club for our mini getaway! Didnt do anyting much but just rot. I slept alot as i was lacking slp. hahahaha.. pay $ to slp, can do it at home rite. I was also attacked by mosquitos during our walks to Changi village to makan. We did a mental calculation and realised that in 1.5 days, we walked abt 5km. Not too bad... not too bad.
On Monday, I did something for the 1st time.
I went FISHING!
Changi Beach Club! Lots of kids on sunday as they have swimming lessons. Some were wearing luminous colored flippers, soo cute.
Me hard at work.... I'm cutting fish! We bought sotong too but they dun seems to be very well-received by the fish.
Found the easiest way to wait.
Sleep
However, we didnt managed to catch any fish. Guess I do not have any luck or patience for fishing. U have no idea how badly i was begging for some stupid fish to bite the bait.
But guess i will give it a go again, just to prove that i have fish-luck.
What a wkend. Time to start work again. Depressing. |
