March hols - almost over?



Spent almost the entire Dec school break in California, so i've been looking forward to just lazing around in sg. Finally march hols are here... told myself i must not must not must not waste it. So far it’s been a pretty good one.

back-track a lil to last saturday. took the kids to the airport, and it's really at play times like these that we see the many facets of them... Bossy ones who grabbed onto the clues and refused to work with the rest of the team, the small ones with their tiny feet who were exhausted by the walk, and after the whole thing, their favourite part was the ice-cream treat at the end. and one who cried coz kids from other teams got to have an ice-cream cone each, whereas her team got nuggets and fries. hehe. kids.

munch hp n i then went for angie's surprise party. first time at her new place. nice. suits them. nice view. loved the table-with-drinks-cooler-sink, and of coz the wine collection.

Sunday- church. still late. agh. =( Dunno what's wrong with me really. I personally can't accept that it's sheer physical exhaustion. can't be. k, if i'm still late this week, i'll fine myself a dollar per minute.
Went shopping in the afternoon, and grandma's bdae dinner in the evening.

Monday- had make-up lessons with 4e4 and 4e3. i usually enjoy lessons with them, but I had booked a 2hours slot with 4e4, and that is too much even for me. they're still a little behind e3 and e5 though.
Another game of badminton in the afternoon with munch. Lost, as usual. 15-3, 15-3, 15-4. But i think i improved. the scores don't show it, but i really think i did. Really! coz this time, munch didn't give as many chances as he did last week, i completed 3 rounds instead of 2, plus i didn't get a new blister. so, yeah. Congratz to me.

IHAD-ed in the evening, n caleb sent me home on his bike. =)

Tuesday- Sec 3 camp till afternoon, bought new running shoes FINALLY. the old Adidas pair REALLY fell apart. like really. into many pieces of rubber. So now i have brand new Asics running shoes! Yay! my fave! loved my last pair of Asics, it just feels better. But i have been settling for Nike, then Adidas coz i was being cheap-skate and bought whatever was on sale at Queensway. got a new bag as well...oh...wait,to be more accurate, i didn't really buy them. munch bought them for me. =) He’s been paying for almost everything. I know in the end it doesn’t make a difference who pays since we pool everything, but it’s just a nice feeling. =) but I’ve got to be careful I dun take everything for granted and become one of those who drag a boyfriend/husband on shopping sprees just to have them pay and hold shopping bags.

Had Kidz exco meeting at LY's at night. Think this tumultuous period has been a refining and pruning time for us and the team. i know what God was saying to me thru the Gideon thingy, i know i shouldn't have abdicated what should've been mine, i know we need to get the whole team united and do this together, in one spirit. so much to be done. but ok la... God is bigger than all these. ke yi de.

Then went to st james. Powerhouse was closed for some private function. Some underaged parties. So, being an over-aged folk, we went for some adult entertainment. No la… just that when we were at movida, we saw some tai-tais with young men. Y'know, young, well-groomed, nifty dancers....o.O' but they're good to watch. i mean their dancing. =P
Later, Munch asked if I weren’t a Christian and married, would I go get a toy-boy when I’m old and and lonely and rich? Hmmm… I suppose when you remove absolute values, there’s nothing wrong with anything. Then it would simply be a matter of using whatever resources you have to try to meet some felt needs. Hmmm… food for thot, will ponder over this next time. I mean the issues behind it, not whether or not I should get one for myself. I won’t, dearie. Dun worry. Coz I’m Christian and married. ;)


Wednesday - today. Nua-ed till now. gotta go to campsite again soon. staying over tonight. Reminds me of ODAC camps/ Ha.V.O.C days … the night hikes, mud baths, solo walk. Fun yeah, should have one for teachers as well. But the others will kill me if I ever suggested it!!
