Matriculation tomorrow and school starts on wednesday!
even better, im moving out of my room tomorrow.hee.shall spare the details as this is a sensitive topic. but yes, i hope it will be a good thing.
the last few days were my most happening days in Glasgow.
alfred and chris brought us to the Cathedral and Necropolis on saturday. then we went to town.Town is Huge.. and beautiful.we went to the french fair, walked in the posh alleys, tried the fattening fried mars bars. haha. But it was good time spent. Glasgow isnt that dirty and KL-like as people say it is? It has a pretty city centre with lotsa good shops (i havent bought anything yet!)and the people are nice=)We're in for the 2014 Commonwealth games bid, hope we'd get it! iT'd be so fun! oh.. been seeing Germany 2005 World Cup posters everywhere. think id be so cool if i could fly over next year and soak in the world cup fever. expecting lotsa riots though!
been out with seniors a lot!i see them everyday!
went to Findlay Christian Church, at St Georges Cross, on Sunday. It was a combined service, very much like BMC 830. its also called Glasgow Chinese Christian Church, as it is chinese populated. they have combined every last sunday of the month,a nd the rest is youth! i cant wait for next week. Yinru sais its pretty much like FL. hmmm....
novel stuff (to me) included:
1)dedication of a newborn,ester, to the Lord. so heart-warming!
2)Holy communion-i couldn take as i haven been baptised. hee.
3)worshipping in cantonese and english simultaneously! tt was cool.
im gonna join a cell group definitely, just not sure which one yet. prob will be allocated one. cant wait!
oh yeah...seniors. hilarious people. esp the non-singaporeans.
dinner last night with all come singaporean churchies. tt was like 15? cool right?more to come...=)this morning, kemmy, alfred, carol,kenneth and i went jogging. first time jogging in a cold country..boy, it wasn easy esp, when we were running with guys who do half marathons! ahh! but it was nice, perspiring yet not feeling it in the cold.
went to mich's place to play "pictionary" with vong, alf, yinru, puiyi,jean,carol.
i love their place! im gonna get a flat next year too! and i cant wait to set up my own home... with my own room, kitchen, livign room! and all the IKEA furniture=)shall go falt hunting next easter for good deals. yeay.
its funny, i feel like a hosuewife, managging everything myself. grocery shopping, cooking, laundry,finances,electricals.. wow. quite a feat. but i think id be good training.
on a more personal note, finally, my own space.
i think i do miss home, but i wanna be strong and not dwell on it. I dun want to cry. thats my first resolution in Glasgow. crying brings back bad memories. on the other hand, my family has been so sweet to me, emailing me heart-warming and wrenching letters. mei mei said "i will always have you in my heart, if u really love someone, u will always have that person in you heart.." i melted as flashes of the years gone by appeared in my mind. -a dull ache creeps into my heart-
ideals i once held on to so dearly.i still believe in them now, but their significance in my life is slowly diminishing. all that is left is an empty shell, with bits of frozen ice.
stubborn in the things i believe?
