hey!
guess what? i took half-day leave today because there was NOTHING for me to do! i spent the whole morning cooped up in the library, reading newspapers and books. basically, getting paid for doing nothing. not that i mind, really. but i felt quite bad for slacking outrightly (haha RIGHT) so i decided to go home! my paycheck this month is gonna be disappointing. taking more half-day leaves this week to go for the interviews. plus i missed two days of work last week! on the bright side i have extra income from tuition. so it's not too bad :p
oh yeah, i just received a msg from alicia that i have a bnj interview on 25th! hope it could take place after work. if not i've to take yet another half-day leave. saddd. so anyway, hope i'll get to join ali! and hope edmund gets in too. haha. thing is i don't know when i can leave KW..if by the time i join bnj edmund's gotta enlist then it's quite dumb. lol.
i think i should make it a habit to exercise every weekend. i got a bit of a shock when i read off e weighing scale ytd. i think i'm edging closer to the dreaded 50 range..not quite there, but approaching. be careful of what you wish for. these words of caution have been more apt! lol. i'm not exaggerating okay..my h&m jeans were still q loose-fitting when i tried it in hk..now it feels rather tight :/ goodness me.
this is a christian song by Corrinne May, i thought it's very meaningful even though i'm not a follower of Christ..
Beautiful Seed
I can fill the darkness with just one flash of light
Break the the silence with just one word
Warm the fire-started revolution
One that can save the world
On the steps of Washington sprinkled like confetti
Thousands of people sing "We shall overcome"
The preacher shouts: "Let freedom ring"
He gave his life for what he believed
Chorus
You can be a witness You can be a prophet
You can make the whole world believe
Break the strongest fortress Change the way the world thinks
You can build a bridge where foes can meet
Hope for the future
Shout it, don't whisper dreams are what make them to be
There is hope in every heartbeat
Tiny as it seems
You're a beautiful seed
She's a pastor's daughter
She's only 16
But her heart and her belly are breaking at the seams
Her boyfriend blames her
He want to pay for the doctor to wash it away
As she lays in the hospital
A Christmas choir is singing
About a child in a manger fragile and small "Unto us is born a Savior"
She looks at her baby and cries as she sings him a lullaby
(Chorus)
Every hope, every power lies in the heart of a seed that flowers
Intertwined all across the land
We're all seeds in the maker's hand
