FOOD AND STRENGTH

FOOD AND STRENGTH


On Friday night, DH and I were at PH's house baking. And it was at her house where I saw the very bottle of shower gel which I nearly commited suicide with! Tsk! Talk about memories!

Anyway, because there was a 2hours time of refrigeration, we ended up teaching DH some basic guitar strummings. Somehow (though I have no idea how), we gradually
"promoted" to the piano that's in the living room. In the end, we had a sort of a skills trading exchange. PH and I taught DH guitar, while DH taught us the piano.

It's quite a weird and daunting feeling playing
the piano. The only experience I've had is from the uber-short period in Primary 3; when I joined the school ensemble. Even then, my CCA (known as ECA back then) attendance was terribly miserable. I can't even remember what I learnt! Anyway, back then, I was in the pianica section. Really basic, really. At least, with the pianica, there are only 2 octaves to deal with. And the instrument is small and light; it can be easily placed on the laps and blown through a wind pipe. The piano's totally different.

Anyway, after baking, I lugged home 2kg of chicken drumsticks, 2 1.5L bottles of Coca-Cola, a guitar, and my bag. Assuming the density of water, the bottles of Coke alone weighed 3kg. In total, I lugged 5kg of stuffs home; excluding the guitar and my bag! All of a sudden, I was reminded of The Master. He would have been glad - gleeful, even - to take a dig at this. For once, someone is carrying more bags than Doro! Haha...

ZA came to my abode this morning. He really looks every part a chief. Anyway, the kids were happy to see the new visitor. Serene was so polite; she kept calling him "Kor Kor". Grace was surprisingly friendly, too. The moment she saw him, she smiled. Following which, she "hugged" his legs, and started toying with the hems of his 3quarts pants. Poor ZA looked so paralyzed. He looked as though he dare not move. After being done with laughing, I carried Grace away from him. That's just so funny.



I caught him unaware. He was cooking so earnestly! Can you feel the love?! Hohoho!

Gotcha!

Anyway, it's really an indescribable feeling to see things taking shape and tackling things down one by one.

I've received the matriculation card and student Portal account! What a relief!


In addition, I need not take any Content Upgrading Modules for Chemistry!
Woot!

AND!!!
I am offered a place in Residence Hall 10! Now, accepting it or rejecting it... well... I've not decided yet; and a decision is required urgently. Arrrghhh!


The bad news is, only an hour ago when I got back home, there sits on my desk a letter from CPF. It's a reminder for the upcoming repayments of the CPF Education Scheme, as well as a Giro Application Letter to authorize the deductions in the near future. Oh, crap.

Anyway, like what CXW says, "Happiness is a choice".

I shall be happy.



Ta!
