Of kayaking, dinner, and inter-racial marriages


[THURSDAY]
Went kayaking-fishing at Pasir Ris Park! The weather was insanely hot, but we didn't bring sunblock, so we decided to just 'man' it. Caught nothing except the strange animal featured in one of the pictures. We can't seem to find where it's brain is located. Anyway, even though we didn't manage to fish anything despite our high-quality baits (we immerse the prawns in XO sauce :D), it was still fantastic! It's been such a long time since I have kayaked already. Hopefully I can get a kayak with a spray cover and go on a expedition sometime in the near future!

[FRIDAY]
Exciting discussion with the people working on N.E.mation IV and brainstormed for some catchy names for next year's competition :D Met Sophia, Yu Yiing and Ge for AYC discussions and realised how WORKAHOLIC the Big Bosses (Sophia/YY) are. haha maybe I should organize some happening outing to let them relax a bit and have moer fun xD

[SATURDAY]
Checked out NUS Law with Royce before heading down to Dhoby Ghaut for dinner with HouseD. haha I really enjoy the random gatherings we always seem to be having! In fact, we meet up quite often now that I think of it. At least once a week? But this dinner has been my favourite one so far! It's been a really long time since I last find myself shocked to discover how fast time flies, and when we realised that it was already 10pm, I really didn't feel the minutes slip by at all. <3 BBHouseD!

[SUNDAY]
SOCCER!!! It's been a million years since we last played together, and it was really fantastic :D Really missed the old times where we used to play on a weekly basis. Met Mrs Ng and caught up with her a little. She's having a second baby! Quite exciting, and she's supposedly giving birth to him on the 9th September 2009! I was asking Vishwa what he thought about inter-racial marriages and I realized something: There are many things we have read about, but it is only when someone we know relates to the topic through personal accounts and experiences that the topic feels more relevant.

ANYWAY, I REALLY HATE APPLICATIONS. They are screwing up my plans and making me somehow feel like I'm living on borrowed time, injecting a sense of urgency into my otherwise wonderful life. I want to complete the AYC website, wrap up my company project and START WRITING MY BOOK!!! But I can't, because applications have deadlines. Yet, I have been procrastinating. SIAN. Every night when I think about writing those essays, it totally spoils my mood no matter how enjoyable the day has been.

A kaleidoscope of emotions. I wish some things were less complicated.
