sail to nowhere

Chia V. texted me early in the morning 7plus with several messages which woke me up from my sleep.

V: gabbbyyyy u gg cruiseeeeeee?!?!
V: on the 24th??!?

V: wah
V: u and kenenth only ah

(now you know why i woke up)

tried to sleep again, then my mum started shouting away "girl ah, girl!! girl ah!"
"what?!" i was irritated. and mum said "happy boating"

as a defiant spoilt daughter i just rolled my eyes in my room (she can't see it cuz she's in the living room) and thought "HAPPY BOATING??!? is there such greeting?"

anyway, yes, today i'm going cruise with K and his family.

well.. if i can go overseas with K alone, guess cruise will be absolute zero in the list for first trips.

its not that i'm tired of taking cruise or what

in actual fact this is my first time sleeping in the cabin of a ship.

i remember taking a big ship to desaru before on a family trip where the cars were parked in the ship itself and probably last for a few hours there and back.. and the only memories back then was

i was playing arcade with my maternal side cousin (Jeraldine while the 3 naughty kids then wasn't even form)

that's all i remember about taking big ships.

so i shall consider this my virgin cruise... to nowhere.

cruise to nowhere sounds boring, i guess

because it doesn't stop and plop you on a pretty island to roam around and do some adventurous stuff.

its..yups, a more of a gambling boat.

BUT ITS FREE! so just take it. (rite dear? we love #freestuffs)

able to spend time with K somewhere else out of jurong is probably something to look forward to.

esp when both of us are those super nua couples. just wanna eat, slack and rest.

this will be a good getaway from our daily stressful environment at work and school.

=) bye land, hi sea.

LIfe is like a piano, it plays the melody of our life song.

Recently chanced upon this picture
and really like the quote in it.
the black keys make it tough to play a piano piece
at times, especially when there's many of them
but the music they produce is way nicer
than a normal C major tune.

a perspective to see sadness,
where in life's journey, it'll brings a tinge of sweetness
when we realized how we gone through that period.

and that experience was precious, was worth.
because you became stronger.
just like as you practice the piano piece
many frustrations, much pain, much effort
but the music gets only better, not worst.

when you get the next piano piece, it gets easier to practice
and the music remains beautiful.

Just like how God put us through our life's journey, filled with trials, pain, sadness
but when the joyous, sweet moments are put altogether in place,
our life song becomes melodious and beautiful .

so so tired.

i'm so tired. but i can't sleep!
so i decided to blog.

did 4 nights and had a sleeping day, slept for 7hrs, skipped lecture
and i couldn't sleep well at night because i've slept during the day. (jet lag!)
morning shift the very next day, pretty busy shift, only had 2 slices of bread in the day
then rush off to sch for 4 hours lecture in the evening, had a cheese burger only.
then today, lecture from 9-12pm, i didn't listen to the lecture at all.
was just browsing my emails, preparing for my inservice at work.

had lunch with wenya at PS then head back home, slept for an hour
met kenneth for dinner at his house, did my inservice ppt, not completed yet though..
got back home, showered, feeling exhausted but couldn't sleep.
sometimes i envy K, why can he fall asleep so early? and just sleep so easily...

wells,

i'm going to be so dead tmr. 9am-7pm in school
followed by 2 afternoon shifts the next day plus 1 morning shift on sunday.
my next rest day is only wednesday.

on a brighter note,
was watching last year's alpha camp's theme video.
really missed all those fun and laughters, fellowship and sharing in church.
but i still need some time to let go of the unhappiness and awkwardness that is keeping me away.
