being on medical leave today feels like being able to take a breath after swimming a 4x50 breaststroke without any breaths in between. each day in the past week has been a flurry of actvities and commitments, and i've been so set on completing them all that it has prolly taken yet another toll on my health, and also taken the enjoyment outta some of them cuz of all the rushing. but looking back im real glad that i've survived all that, altho i've missed out on some of the other things that i've been unable to attend/do but all in all its been a smooth journey with gd experiences and awesome friendship.
it'll prolly be an understatement to say that "its been a long week", but here are some of the stuff i've been up to:
Dragonboating event @ Kallang!
twas an event organized by my cell group for the rest of the youth groups, and it was as physically challenging as it was mentally. waking up at 7+ to go to church was one of them :p we had games, songs, and new friends for the event, and also 3 dragonboat coaches from SDBA (singapore dragon boat association) to conduct the activity.
a me-moment with ernest's hat
it was a pretty successful event, yay to its organizers (im not one of them). however, we had a gd taste of the kallang river water (literally) and its ill-contents, what with the screaming of commands and laughing and open-mouthed moments that provided adequate containments for paddle-splash residue.
unintentional artistry, i like.
Dinner + KBox
mac&i met up with melvin, victor & SY for dinner @ manhatten fish in a pre-celebration for mac's birthday, cuz melvin was flying off the next day. that was followed by a customary kbox session where songs were massacred, and old english MTVs with blonde retro women strutting around in swimsuits were goosebump-ed at. i actually tried singing "fire" for the fun of it, the deng li jun version, and gave up halfway because i was getting waves of goosebumps at both the arrangement and the image on the screen. but the guys didnt seem to have a problem with the slaughtering of guns&roses, bonjovi, switchfoot etc.
Wedding @ jizeng's
yet another wedding where the quartet got together to play, except this time it was at jizeng's place - his brother conducted his ROM at their house, which was beautiful, majestic, and homely all in one. we provided background "garden-music", my first outdoor playing experience, which was tons harder than playing in any room because we simply couldnt hear each other, plus our space was shared with a few friendly garden bugs and also mr humidity, which made our violins alil cranky. after dinner we moved indoors where it became tons better, but what saved the day was the nice big fat angpao after dinner, which i opened with a few squeals of delight during reso practice straight after the wedding.
