ytd went out with russ,marc,jx, and wh for dinner. lols. was pretty fun eyhs. "guys" talk. what happened in the conversation shall be kept as a secret then.
the strangest thing that happened to me today:
i was heading to my brother's new home when a man in his forties approached me. he was on a wheelchair and asked me for his help. Of course i obliged. He was very friendly and amicable. he talked alot to me and he taught me how to safely push him across the platform from the mrt and vice versa. i did pretty badly when i pushed him back to the platform-the front wheels got stuck in the gap. to his amazement, he also stopped at tiong bahru(my destination too). he talked about good karma being reciprocated usually i don't receive back. at least i did a good deed today. Its strange though that i encounter these people in life. it is not my first time. maybe, it is a sign. i felt extremely weird because instead of exiting MRT door A, i exited door B at raffles place. then i stood waiting for the MRT when the handicapped guy arrived. haha i really can't explain the strange phenomenon but i guess i meant to be at the right place at the right time.
my brother's place is nice. pretty creative house i love his tap. DAMN cool. instead of those normal tap, his tap is of similar resemblance of those in CK tangs hotel restrooms. maybe i can draw it out on paper.=)
during dinner, my bro talk about reading palms. and he told us if your ring finger is longer than ur index finger, you are suppose to be talented in sports. after looking at my fingers, i smiled to myself. i think my sports skills aren't pretty bad eyhs. i look at floorball, soccer, tennis, volleyball(the recent games i just played).. really i should have joined a sports cca in secondary school. But a pity my secondary school has no niche sports cca. i prefer team sports. individual?---chess maybe. i was once a national player. but that was pretty long ago, lost my skills. Uniform groups and ODAC are more disciplined and i guess the lessons i learn from there will ultimately benefit for time to come. though i wish to learn music so i can soothe an angry man.
Life is full of possiblities and choices. We choose our own path. We can only think of what would happen if we took another path, but we should learn to enjoy our decisions and bear the pain that comes with it. That is what life is about. I don't regret any decisions yet. But alll i know if i don't study well, i will certainly regret it. My hope of becoming a philantrophist will be dashed. (today's guest of honour talked about legacy, and wonder am i on the right path). often i want to have a legacy for life like Nobel prize? haha i don't know, i 'll just try my best and see where i land. the important thing is to try.
