Photography workshop was fun fun fun! Yes the sun was terribly unforgiving but the company was good. It was fun having 7 other people walk together who were equally if not more engrossed in capturing little snippets of the neighbourhood :)
There was this place where there were many pigeons sitting/walking (do they walk?) around. So we all got ready our cameras at a distance, and at a count of 3, Alvin ran into the birds. So we get....
Cool eh? We walked about in the open for about 2 hours, and finally retreated into a bubble tea shop where we brought good business to the otherwise quiet bubble tea shop (I suppose it'll be crowded on school days...)
Anyways I uploaded the photos onto the google photo album. Still waiting for the rest to send me pics so that I can upload all the workshop pics. There were a lot of pretty pictures taken that day. Well, light was good. I wish it were that easy to get a nice sharp picture in the lt though :(
Went for my first ever pedicure with Belbel today. Speaking of that girl, she was uber cute. The other day she msged me:"Is madmad still my friend??" Apparently she had a nightmare that I was mad at her over something she said to Choechoe. And Mikey was in that dream too. Like.... -_-" Yeah. So pedicure. Ok la. I refused to get my nails painted because I don't have the habit of colouring anything (Except my hair). It was ticklish when the person got to the bottom of my foot. Ugggh. Fun, but not a luxury I'd go for on a regular basis.
Ah well. I feel like going back to Adam actually. Oh wait, I think I'm going back Adam for a while, not for service though. Kinda want to see the Adam worship peeps, yet I don't feel like going back. Weird eh? It's the thing about going to where I belong la. PL is ultimately my home now (plus it's so much more convenient!) Guess I'll have to make do with seeing the Adam people when they come over then. That is, if I'm actually around when they come over. IF. Yeah.
Holidays are nearly 2/3 over *shudders* I don't wanna go back to school. It'll be another 2 semesters of chionging. Speaking of school, I'll need to go down to the campus soon to submit my application form. Sheesh. Hate the distance. But I shall make full use of my hols and sleep.
I have been trying very hard to be a good friend these few days. I hope that while trying hard I have not forgotten to be a leader as well. Sometimes the balance is easily forgotten. I forget about that a lot especially when I'm with the kids. It's fun to play with them. But not so fun when I'm trying to be serious. With others my age, I've been trying hard to be "friendlier" so to speak. Not to say that I talk more or share more, but to be more accomodating I guess. It's tough when you realise that beneath the outgoing surface of some people lies a very guarded heart. I might be worse actually. But while trying to foster deeper friendships with people, these barriers are a must to break through. Then I ask myself: Am I worthy of such trust in the first place? When I don't give that level of trust to anyone at all? Perhaps not. I can continue trying, but sometimes, it's just easier to stick to what the surface has to offer you.
