this is no joke. badminton, basketball and frisbee all in a night is crazy. My knees are so gone. My right arm is barely able to control the mouse on the lappie. Didn't help that I played tennis last night too.. this weekend will be a good weekend of rest. Am hoping to go to the gym with the SH on Saturday though.
I performed a good deed by offering to send A home because she had 3 stacks of papers to bring home and it was raining. In doing that good deed, I did not go to Lot 1 to look for my 4 yolk mooncakesssssssssss, saved myself 1200 calories. But I was hungry after the workout. So got a roll of oreo and ate 4 biscuits!!! :)
Had dinner with K at Longhouse before badminton. SHe had the $6 big prawn noodle. It looked yummy! I had the $3 Ban mian and had a craving for butter-kaya toast, so I got 2 slices of that too. Wah! Good that I worked all of that out! The turnout was incredible! 16 people in total. We were occupying half the basketball court and the whole multi - purpose hall. Got to know 3 new friends.
As you can tell, a good workout makes me all perky! How to sleep? I have another stack of marking I hope to finish tonight but I think it's unlikely.. yawn.. nighty!

sigh..
I have been Aunt Agony of sorts in the past few months. Maybe it's my calling in life. I don't think so though. While I am happy attending to others, I've come to learn how dark the human heart is. I had been disappointed again and again because of my expectations of people; while I can suspect something about the character of someone, I choose to think the best of every person and every situation. Ah well, I am prolly also disappointing someone somewhere somehow sometimes..
Someone said you can't preach grace if you have never preached sin. Yeh. The world is so in need of God. We won't know how much till we see the darkness.

a thought during my PE class..
the children then shared a ball to play
the children now have a ball each to play
the children then share a book to read
the children now have their own personal laptops
Skills enhanced, learning advanced, to whose benefit?
Records broken, higher education, at what cost?
is there any wonder why children are who they are today?
is there no wonder why children are what they are today?
we teach values (and some people ask if values can be taught)
we really do
