post for the day

Hi. I was trying to start doing my Econs. Maybe i shall blog a bit.

Came back from Vinci's farewell party. Its not really a party actually, and it din feel like farewell either. Everyone had their food which was 10 dollar subsidised, chatted, took photos, and left. Probably one need to wait till someone is going to be gone or already gone before feeling his/her absence.

I don't think le0 allows the whole class to skip morning assembly to see vinci off, but some of us will most probably do it anyway. Im sure we will miss vinci's presence in the class when he is gone. papa is extremely sad that he is leaving, as like any other member of the 'animal gang' i suppose. He is more than just a classmate to papa.

Went to the arcade at dhoby xchange with zhiyun waikuan nengjie jaryll and austin. Played daytona, the basketball game, bishi bashi, shooting game and the spot the difference in the photo game. Then we took mrt home.

Din have time to do my homework this weekend because had to go out on both days. Yesterday went for coach's wedding, watched him in his cream white suit together with his beautiful bride. watched him nervously trying to unveil the bride's veil. watched him struggling to make his vows in english. The christian wedding sort of scared most of us because of the repeated mentioning of god. I really pray and hope that the Christians get to see Him with such sincere praying. =/

The priest's talk (accompanied with impromptu chinese translation) was insightful. Made me ponder about marriage. To have love that lasts forever. not just 'marriage that last forever'. how sure are you that your love for each other will not diminish as time passes? to be committed, to be in love with each other, for better or worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do us apart~

I am imagining the day when it will be my turn to say the vow, and to accomplish it.

My hamsters are doing fine. Their life is extremely enriching, because they get to run around in a 2ft tank and run the wheel and eat and drink and sleep and scratch themselves. But they are indeed troubling me with so much worries. Worried that they fight, that they get sick, that the food don't fit them, that they hurt themselves when they fall down from the wheel, that the tank is smelly, that they do not have enough to eat. They shit alot too, and can be really mischievous and frustrating at times.

I am afraid one day i will find it a chore to take care of them.

But for now, I am really in love with them. Their funny antics and hyperactive-mode is fun to watch and always put a smile on my face. I am just hoping that they will be less afraid of me and let me feel them more, instead of running away like I am gonna take them to make ham or hamburgers.

Gonna go and shop for more toys and stuffs for them soon. The wheel seems to be too big and it hurts to see them flying off the oversized wheel. And I need a toilet to toilet train them. Get a cute food tray and some toys for them too. Although the tank is big, I feel guilty that their life appears to be going to be spent running the wheel, run one round, and running the wheel again. Its fun to experiment and pamper them with new toys and treats.

But its draining my pocket money as well. My brother gonna sponsor for these new stuffs, but i already spent 70 on the first investment. Some may feel that i am just wasting money despite having 'financial problems' already. *nothing to say*

And going out so often, with endless outings these days that equate to compulsory money-spending, and class funds etc etc, urgh...

i feel so lousy that while i achieved one of my resolution getting some stuff that i want to buy, i had also made another one harder to attain.



sometimes i really wish my family was richer
