Fulfilled cravings...

Ok, do NOT ever have chocolate cake, hot coffee and cold water at the same time. And if you do, do NOT take a one hour bus ride home immediately. The result of doing so is a very queasy stomach. No, I haven't vomited, but let's just say I'm not feeling very pleasant in the stomach now...

Well, today was a relatively pleasant day. I finally fulfilled my weekend cravings to eat cake! Nice chocolate cake! Dai Wei says I don't look like the type with a sweet tooth, oh, but trust me, I can love sweetness when I'm in the mood...

Today was one of those surreal days when I realised that the school's vision is right after all, that no one is here by chance. I never expected to have gone to Spain on a holiday last December, end up in the same tour group as a bunch of members from the Bible Church, 0f whom one of them is the JC's principal and another a current student councillor, to find myself, 8 months later, sitting in a Secret Recipe cafe eating cake with another Bible Church member, along with the said student councillor, myself now being a student of the JC and hence being under that principal, in the same class as two other Bible Church members. No one, I repeat, is here by chance...

Oh, and who could predict I'd end up a close friend of one of the Bible Church members in my class? Okay, so I complained about trekking all over Holland V for an hour plus in a futile attempt to find a cake shop, but I think at the end of the day, I enjoyed myself. To quote Benita's blog, "thanks, joel for peing me over sms. u're one of those pple who make school liveable." Well, I must say that the feeling is mutual.

At this juncture I feel the need to add a disclaimer. I feel very blessed to have God place such a good Christian sister in my life. Yes, all you nosey buggers out there, listen up: I view her as the sister I never had. I find it increasingly amusing that more and more people think we have something going on. Is it that hard to believe a guy and a girl can be good friends without going beyond the platonic level? Apparently not. People are too busy messing around with their love lives to enjoy close platonic friendship with the opposite sex. And don't I just LOVE arguing with women... They can be soo intellectually stimulating...

Argh... the GP seminar is coming up, and my group is WAY behind schedule for PW. Surveys! Surveys! Arghh...

Oh, in an irrelevant sidenote: I got new shoes! And a new book! And if I have my way (which I probably will not) I'll get a new bag soon! Hahahaha...
