Milestone
Past few days have been good. Karaoke with half-insane fellas felt liberating, the mic couldn't handle our voices. Met up with Shawn and had the usual whines of our mundane lives. Didn't find a place to babe watch, so we proceeded to random supper at some chicken rice place and that was a day well spent. Church on Saturday reminded me of.. well, Church. Nothing much has changed, but I pray much will be changed. Family gathering over dimsum fulfills our carnal desire and the send-off and welcome. One more day back to camp, and I somehow want to go back already. Maybe it's the ties, or the strangeness of having so much time. Whichever, I am thankful. Long week ahead, and possibly long month too. Grateful that the past month went by in a whiff - the painful and mosquito-infested outfield, the endless servicings and maintenances, the fulfilling and eye-opening and possibly delightful trip to Deutschland, the excruciating five stitches, the splurging of euros, and the hectic rehearsals and turn-outs. Maybe - just maybe - I may look at this eight months later and wish I were reliving it again. The letter i wrote to myself in 2007 reminded me that relationships, and not circumstances, stay constant. Afterall, I am no stranger to transition.
The last third, already.
