Random thoughts
Time really whooshed by for the last two months. While classes have been really enjoyable (have to give it to Seed institute for their creative modules and passionate teachers) I am getting burnt out with classes every other day. When there is no class, I will have project meetings that run for hours every week. I am EXHAUSTED! My two short trips in July are just fuzzy memories now and I badly BADLY need another break. Doesn’t help when I spent whatever free time oogling over the lastest trip photos of my fav bloggers. Sigh, with my grueling class schedules, I can only dream about travelling till maybe…… Xmas?
I have not been exercising much and since jogging is out, at least for now, I am trying out swimming (finally utilizing the facilities we have been paying blindly for) and it is getting off to a really slow start. Realized it is so much easier to put off swimming as compared to jogging: sheer logistics of putting on the bathing suit, constant battling of self-esteem (sucking in tummy no longer effective to tuck in tummy :P), too cold, too hot, too many noisy kids at the pool, etc etc.. Sigh, need to get my momentum up soon!
One of my friend wittily concluded the PE results: TT supporters – Pap supporters, TCB supporters – moderate/on the fence voters, TJS – opposition supporters and TKL – ticked wrongly. :P Anyway, I am quite disappointed with the results because of the large % of moderate voters. These fence sitters disagree with the idea of someone so closely linked to PAP to do the check and balance on the reserve but yet cannot agree with the more “aggressive” approach of TJS. (aggressive defined by Singaporeans as dared to ask questions on reserve while none of the other candidates did; But how else can we know about our reserve unless we open our mouth and ask? Anyway) Singaporeans want friendly oppositions. But oh… the irony of that… lagi sigh…
Celebrated Dad's birthday over the weekend. As usual, he refused any sort of celebratios and I made do with an Ang bao and a simple birthday cake. At least I got macho him to blow off the candle this time. Flor Patisserie cakes rock!!
