All that is Found and Felt on a Sunday

For me, it has been a week like no other. I haven't decided if writing about it will add to or take away from what I've experienced. It's all been about personal spiritual and relational growth. There have been other times when I wanted to do something like this, but never really did. This time, the catalyst midweek and the fact that it was Holy Week made it entirely appropriate. I think I come out a better person. I've finished Lenting my computer, and I find I am perfectly able to survive without all the time-consuming activities that the web offers. This week has been filled with activities of the spirit, and I think I've come up with some things to fill up my time with of different, yet constructive, natures.

The problem with setting strange standards for myself when I blog means that sometimes I hesitate to post if what I'm gonna write is not something I think is worth reading again. I've been more reflective than I've ever been, perhaps even more enigmatic because of it. Still, the promise I made myself all those years ago not to abandon this habit is something I will try to keep until the day computers decide to turn on their human inventors a la Terminator and I can no longer keep this up.

I shall still document the stuff I did just for memory's sake. This Wednesday was a test of nerves, and though I've only ever experienced one other professional interview, it was of an equally immense calibre. Saturday's one was different, and I think my view of these things is kinda jaded, and hence found it oddly care-free. I met some really nice ppl in that interview room as well, which is always a good thing. Thursday night was spent at the Night Safari with the ip04 ppl, Louisa, Colin, Mer, Maricelle and Joel. I hope my long phone call just before the Creatures of the Night show didn't distract. Friday was the long-awaited 4/11 outing which Xin Quan and I, with Ron's help, had been tirelessly putting together since a week before, and after numerous texts later, the 3 of us met Elendrus, Jit Wei, Sean, Chang Yun, Yew Jin, Daniel, Stuart, Justin and Mervyn at Marina Square, first for lunch at Kenny Rogers, then Pool, then a film (Knowing), dinner and finally hopping over to the Esplanade to take in an acappella performance (SPH's anniversary performances at the waterfront stage) and a chocolate high at Max Brenner's. To follow the trend, (classes from 05-07), I met Song Yeong, Nic, Elliot, Gerald, Patrick, Chun Wui and Lex on Saturday, primarily to shop for army stuff for those who haven't gone in, then for a film (Fast and Furious 4), and dinner/dessert. So to Joel, Justin, Elliot and Gerald, along with Jake, and Gareth and Guo Nian who went in on Saturday, you have my warmest regards over the next 2 weeks or so. See you on the other side of confinement!
