A fine day for me. CCA open house. I love angklung
Went home running / walking. It took 50 mins, longer than I expected. My exercise consisted of about 15 mins running and 35 mins walking slowly, and was ended by savouring 6 otah fish balls and banana chips.
*not really an exercise!!! Oh no*
12 January
Angklung again. We played in the canteen during the recess. However, noone was interested to join. Boo hoo. During the first recess, we came down late due to problem in the snare drum. During the second recess, people are busy eating. :S Normal day for me. Felt so sleepy most of the time starting today!

Missed aerobic exercise (again!). Went to airport to send Ka Budi n Ka Lidya off. Threw a bomb to the school. There were lots of thinking involved. Not sure on what will I do next. I’m glad that I have lots of support from Qq & friends.
14 January
CCA again. I love coming to angklung practice. Today I got to know lots of them better, trying to memorised their names.
In one of the days, inspired by angkung practice, I thought of opening music school biz in Singapore. I really hope we can someday!! Music could heal one’s soul and playing it also has therapeutic effect.

One of my major thinking in one of these days – Why do people want children? Was discussing it with Andrew during breakfast. Good thing I was not really convinced by his argument on not to have kids at all. Although through him I also realise that many reasons that people give to have children are really selfish (even those religious reason such as : to fulfill MY calling to be a mother/father). Discussed it with qq in the afternoon (and he was bored because I kept asking the question that he claimed to have answer while I found the answer not satisfactory hehehe).
Decided that having a children is not something that we should or should not pursue, and we come up with this analogy. It’s like wanting something, e.g. a new gadget). We would think that having it would be fun and will be helpful for us. However, it’s not really true. We would try and try to work hard to save money to buy it. Maybe the price keeps increasing that we take a long time to get enough money. Maybe it’s so cheap that we could get it right away. We put our effort, we also ask from the Lord to give us blessing to have this particular gadget. Some of us could buy this gadget – some of us will have one, some will have more than one. Some will not be able to purchase it at all. However, there are 2 ending to the story. One, we love our gadget and live happily ever after. Two, we regret having it and think that pursuing to have it is such a waste of time.
In the end, we agreed that having children is a blessing. We could want something, but to get it or not to get it, is beyond our power – it’s up to God, we human could only ask and try our best.
Still in topic of having baby n stuff, though it does not really fit to the context, I remember one particular scene from FRIENDS season 1, when Ross was going to have Ben. He said something like this : “I was so busy thinking about that I was going to have a baby that I forget the fact that the baby is going to have me!”

It was a fun day! Went to Pulau Ubin for the first time with Henry n Ririn. We cycled for about 3 hours okay!
However I had a terrible experience with my butt. It’s still aching till now.

The trip was closed with eating seafood at the opposite restaurant, which has a yummy cod fish fusion dish (which cost 32 dollars for just 400gr of it!). Went to KKM with much pushing from Qq. Sometimes I felt out of place there. REALLY.
17 January
A fine day too. At church one thing that I learned is about RESPECT. We have to respect people regardless of who they are, what position they hold (still a bit sensitive on this issue hehe). Because when we respect someone, it’ll be easier to love them.
Qq played football and we ended up eating Alif again (I can’t remember when but one of those days we ate alif too)
. Met Benny n Sianty there.

5 things I’m grateful of :
- courage – to quit whatever I am doing now
- Qq’s job
due to reason no 1
- lots of exercises I managed to do this week
- the friends I have in school
- Angklung CCA
2 things that need prayer :
- Commitment to read Bible
- What I’m going to do next?!?!?! (i have 3 choices on my hand now)
