Busyness

Do you ever have the feeling that weekend is not really a break? I'm so exhausted and it's only a Saturday night. I was almost dreading the w/end on Friday... It's a lot to do with the struggle to fit all my social, personal and family events together - in a fashion that is pleasing to my parents. (Going out with friends is never a pleasing thing for them anyway...)

So today I got up at 7:30 like any other working day (*MAD*). Took mum to the country road basement sale in Richmond. (nearly ran a red light... *PRAISE GOD*)

We got there kinda early so we had to wait in the cold for a few minutes. I wasn't expecting it to be any good. I thought all the good stock would've been gone after the Friday sales. But to my surprise, i managed to find a casual jacket and a woolen knit wear. Such a good bargain for CR. ^_^

Mum was ecstatic (I was gonna say "went crazy".) that she found the pants that she wanted in the shops. They are like SUPER cheap compared to usual. (and i really mean *SUPER*) I'm glad she was happy. haha... guess we're both quite materialistic...

and then we went to IKEA to buy a drawer set that requires self pick-up *AND* self assembling. (and when we got home, we realised there was no assembling instruction booklet and apparently there's something wrong with one of the wooden piece) pretty difficult to manage a heavy box for 2 fragile females...

then drove back. this car ran a red light from the opposite direciton as i was about to turn right. lucky i didn't turn.... man.. all those crazy drivers out there....

After that I went straight to Monash Uni to participate in this psychology research. It was a 45 min session on memory work, requiring me to listen to a few letters and numbers and remember them... The researcher really appreciated our effort so she gave us a bag a chocolates and goods~

Then we went to maccas to grab some food. then played badminton with the rest of the cell members + friends. Originally we booked 1crt for2 hrs and 1crt for 1 hr. Somehow we managed to have 3 crts for 2 hrs... YAY. such a good turn out today - a lot more than we expected.

and yeh Happy Birthday To Joy~ we had a cake on the courts. ha ha..

And then rushed straight home for a quick shower and went to church to meet up with a friend that i invited. A bit late so we sat on the FRONT ROW on the right. was sitting with YA pastor for the first time and i felt so special that he remembered me and even my name "SEEMUN" on my email... ha ha... The service was good, very well presented, tailored for visitors~ amazing testimonies too.

Then i had to rush home for dinner coz everyone was waiting for me...

and did some ironing, packing up, calling up for the sofia dinner tmrw....

Now i haf some time to myself...... but it's yet another full day tmrw... >__< how i miss a relaxing weekend.

True, true.... Claytz has a habit of remembering people not by face, or name, but by email addresses.

The first time I got to know him, he goes, "Hey you're deepstuff right?"
"Err... yes."

Anyway, dun stress too much. And remember, you're never too busy not to pray!
