Today was a pretty mentally tiring day. To tell the truth, I'm a little tired to recall the events of the day, they do not seem to be able to stay in my memory. I seriously suspect that I have a problem: a short-term memory loss problem.

Anyway, this morning, I woke up feeling rather lazy. As usual. Had a fruit cake, then I ventured on to one slice of bread, followed by jelly, followed by bread again and finally, finishing the entire tub of jelly. Thereafter, I went to run. ok. Fine. I didn't want to risk appendicitis. Before I ran, I went to bid for my modules. Hope that half an hour or so could allow some of the jelly and bread to be digested.(OK. I know that food takes at least an hour or so to digest, bah, whatever).

Anyway, thank God that I managed to access the CORS website. It was kind of strange to be accessing the website on my own and doing the bidding alone this time round. I remember just a few months back, I had all my peers around while I was bidding, together with trusty seniors to help. Well. Anyway, I bidded for two GEMs- The Science of Music and the Nature of Language. I was thinking of taking Intro to Film Art and some other totally non-science related modules. Yes. I want to re-discover my "arty-farty" side. And One must always be daring when deciding to take the road less travelled. Yes. I didn't bother looking for anyone to do the same mods with me. Now let me find a word for this brave act of mine- sheer independence and bravery. Fancy venturing into the gigantic arts fac alone. On the other extreme, the other side of me would call it utter naiviety and folly and probably, an anti-social act. Oh God, please tell me that I'm doing the right thing.

Anyways, I met up with min min today. Oh my. I really do not know what in the world was wrong with her today! Thank God for granting me the patience to deal with her. I really wanted to help her out but seeing that she kept being so negative the whole time, I was seriously contemplating just going back home or meeting sheryl for gym. But on second thought, she had been with me when I was on that kindda state too. Shouldn't leave her in the lurch at this crucial time. But seriously, this kind of attitude is really no good. I've been through it. It only makes you feel worse. And it affects others too. In fact, it really disturbs and frustrates and hurts them. So friends, NEVER NEVER EVER leave youself wallowing in the depths of pessimism. Do not EVER think that the whole world is against you because the Bible said: " If God is for me, who can be against me?" . God is your source of moral support. Turn to Him. Focus on Him. Instead of thinking: " WHy us everything going against me?!", think " How can I overcome this problem?" THink of solutions! Why else has God has given us a brain for? ;P

Anyway, at the end of the day, I am glad that she cheered up. Dear pal, if you look around you, help is all around. Be it in your studies, or in your ministry in CM. You have me, your paul kor kor, your piano teacher, your dear cell leader, and most importantly, you have your Daddy in heaven. Hope that you are reading this and you are not being voyeuristic, because this post was meant for you. ;)
