Thank God I survived the camp. :) It was rather slow paced and in a way relaxing cause we rarely rushed for anything. Made lots of new friends and one reason why I'm glad that I went for the camp was because i did had thoughts of doing of a double major and CNM was one of the choices. During the camp, i had the opportunity to converse with many lecturers as well as seniors which caused me to reconsider if this is the course that i want. It's very different from what read in the books, or what the websites portray the course to be. Well, it's not that it's not interesting. It just wasn't what i had in mind and also not something that I am very passionate about. For example, when they learn about multimedia design, it is not the visual arts route of learning and so i feel that that will not enhance my appreciation for installation works. Completely different genre. :) Nevertheless, I may still consider taking it up as a minor??
The day after i returned from camp, met Sara in the morning for a run. We jogged all the way to East Coast. Praise God for good weather because i overslept and we set off only at about 8.15am which usually means the sun would be scorching you with its rays. According to her, we ran 4.8km or more so 3 cheers to us. Pity gera is across the universe now. :( On our way back, we spent the entire journey talking about Uni, ministry in school, yfc, stupid army jokes, our future, philosophy and lifestyles. Yes, we practically talked about everything and anything under the sun!! After I got home, i took time to thank God for such opportunity to share with someone my life, so that we can encourage and edify one another. Truly, I ran home excited with a heart beating with excitement and joy!!
Headed down to NUS and i feel real bad because everytime i go down i will have to ask my walking directory-PATRICK! hahaha. I resolve to learn how to read maps and find my way around by the the end of the year. Sounds reasonable right? Afternoon was a great deal of fun cause I finally met up with Lynette. One hot topic was on relationship!!! Many revolved around short-lived relationships and self-centredness whereby both parties want things to work out just by the snap of a finger and the certain unwillingness to work it out together, much less to say the way the relationship started off. I remember a year back or so, I did consider going into one but thanks to firm, and at times sarcastic and brutual honesty from a friend, I didn't! It is one of those incidents whereby when you look back and you go THANK GOD for like-minded friends who will correct and rebuke you when need be!
Currently i am considering joining filmmaking club. :D Wanted to go for their camp but i missed their application deadline. :( Rusy would know my disappointment. If i do join their society, i'm going to smuggle CLD and monster in. wahah. Been suffering from a little sniffles and headache the past few days so i cancelled dinner appointment with black nails and mike. Oh dear. Decided to stay at home and rest until CLD messaged me and i decided to drop by at SR to help out in some photography. Believe it or not but for a split second i had no inkling which bus goes to school even though i took the bus for a good one a half years?? Went round US to photograph an auntie and at the second last pit stop, whereby i tried to photograph the auntie buying otah, the uncle started scolding me real loudly and because he was scolding in hokkien/teochew/or some other dialect, i actually turned around and see who made that man so mad! hahaha. My heart leaped when i realized that it was me that he was scolding and he went absolutley ballistic when he realized there wasn't just ONE photographer, but TWO!! But i applaud this girl for being so brave.
On a random note, i think fruit stalls make beautiful photos. It's amazing.
After calling it a day, we went HK cafe to generate ideas for the kids. :) I love to think about such things, it tingles me up. AND OH DEAR. I just recall that we left 3 umbrellas at the cafe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh dear.
Really thank God for such an eventful week.
Lunch with my pw mates tomorrow. I'm OVVVVEEEERRRR the moon!!! Rusy is actually going to take urgent leave so that she can meet us. I'm beyond excited.. maybe i won't be able to sleep tonight. haha.
