That day's outing was really fun. Not only fun but unique. First time i saw fireworks that did not take place on a new yrs day or chinese new yr or even national day. First time the train that i was in overshot and missed somerset station altogether. First time (although it was my friend who experienced it) that i heard that someone vomited on the train on a total stranger. what are the chances that all these will happen in one night? haha we even tried to make a wish while the fireworks were still on going.

I just created my facebook account. right not i feel really noob like an exposed naked chicken cos everyone else alr has facebook. I'm prob the only lag person who hasnt gotten a facebook account.On the more serious side, sometimes i think facebook is a beautiful yet hideous tool. Beautiful cos it makes it so much easier to connect people together. It makes catching up easy and yet fun. Hideous in the sense that somepeople use it to make fun of others. yes it might not be intentional, but i just dont think its right? i mean after that you shld say you're joking or somethin.this is just how i feel sometimes.

it is quite freaky to see the bathtub sewage (wadever you call that)clogged with hair every time you bathe. I've been dropping a lot of hair recently and it got me quite scared. Even my auntie noticed it. I actually thought of going to bee choo hair treatment centre because i heard it was quite good at treating hair loss. But i went to flowerpod and checked and someone actually complained that bee choo was using fake chinese herbs! my brother laughed at me and kept looking at my head (he thought i was balding, cos he thought bee choo hair centre was something like beijing 101). I still have a lot of hair, yes, but the amount of hair that drop off my head is still O.o

today went chinese new year shopping, but it was not fruitful at all. I ended up buying a dress on impulse. and i spent 42.70 out of my own savings. i need a job fast. A JOB. A REAL JOB. so i can earn money so that i wont need to ask my parents for money.

i wanted to do something meaningful. i realised all my previous cip were directed at children. This time round i wanted to do something different which i thought was meaningful too. I wanted to volunteer at HCA hospice. i mean the dying also shld have the right to be cared for and live their remaining days happily. If i would be able to make their days slightly less painful, slightly happier, even if it were to be a wee bit, that would be great. i actually nvr linked this to my religion. All i had in my mind was to, from the bottom of my heart, really interact with these old people and understand their pain and their plight. But my parents warned me today to not be like some christians who preach to people to convert to christianity before they pass away and put stress onto these patients. I never had the intention to do this. I guess only the christians will understand that all they want to do is help, but it may be a bit too extreme. I must say i understand where non-believers like my parents are coming from and they have reason for saying this. I think all these misunderstandings about christianity all arise from different points of view and a few bad eggs in the basket. But i know these things cant be forced upon. It is entirely up to the person to choose his own path of life and religion. Right now, all i'm actually concentrating on is having the opportunity to care for the patients and help them in any way i can. I believe that religion does not have to come in in interaction between two people. It is the connection that counts.
