less grummy

maybe because i've settle what i've settled and accepted the things that will happen. and also because God took this day in His hands for me. not me on my own. gosh...imagine how long i've been starting my day without Him and what a big difference it makes.

had this night free to attend a wake...and come home to not think about work (not urgent lo). and do things like this.

read a ex-colleague's blog about school days...
"it was kinda nostalgic and touching looking at all our sec sch and jc pictures....we were so young and innocent then..life was carefree and we had no worries, except to pass the dreaded exams and live life to the fullest! sports days, english days, PE sessions, carmee lim and the singapore work out...doing duty in class and taking silly photos all around school....eclipse day and bon jovi concerts....all these memories will always be etched in my mind forever cuz they were the best days of my life. it also made me realise that these girls have really seen me through the best ups and worst downs of my life, thru bad dress sense and even worse hair-dos - overalls, checked shirts, boots and pageboy hair styles?? what WERE we thinking?!?! we have laughed our lungs out until our cheeks ached, and held hands together while waiting for our 'O' results to come out, cried on each other's shoulders at our first heartbreaks. even though we all went our separate ways after JC, we've remained close through the years and i know we will always be there for each other. here's to many more years of coffee sessions, dinners, high teas, boxing day parties, laughter, friendship and more."

i enjoyed my sec school & jc time of my life...it really is the carefree days of my life..in a way that u just worry about exams and when holidays come, it's really pure holidays (ok...even tho we had like eca, project work, holiday homework) but it's still a holiday! i love my friends whom we went through thick and thin together, stupid and funny times, sad and disappointed times. so i have my close sec sch friends who r my 1981 batch..and my jc friends whom we meet up now and then. but really, i understand why the older ppl say to cherish your schooling days. tho as interesting and nostalgic as the good ol' days are, i don't think i would want to relive it again tho i will still want to remember them.

there is a time for everything
