This week is so far the most happening of the year!
On Monday, I went to Saujana Villa. P&J had a branch there though it's only one class, catered specially for the residence of the condo. There were a few japanese kids, 1 autistic boy. Yohan, one of the obedient ones had really fair skin, freckles and bright blond hair. Interesting bunch. I managed to get this shy japanese girl to warm up to me (well, became more like STUCK) by conversing to her in japanese. Whatever words I picked up by watching anime. Wasn't I super fascinated with myself. haha.
Tuesday was the day when I knew I was going out with Fel, Abi and Ai Vee having no idea of the occasion or any details. Turns out Abi and I were bought our birthday presents; Haagen Dazz's Fondue. FONDUE. Oh...that was just. Awesome. Chocolate. Warm chocolate dip, 4 types of ice-cream...and other sides (cake, fruit, cookie) to be dipped into the WARM MELTED chocolate. That was just the bomb. Then we spent a looong time there talking and talking while Abi and I constantly took small dips of melted chocolate to fulfill our satisfaction. thumbs up!!!!
When we finally decided to stop, we walked around searching and deciding our stop for dinner. Being girls, it took ages to decide but we ended up at Chili's. Burgers and lamb steaks. Yumyum. And of course.......more talking. We chatted until the shops were closing and when people started smoking in there. Not cool.
We did think about going to dessert but since it was getting late, Ai Vee parked her car outside Fel's place and we TALKED SOME MORE. Hilarious subjects were discussed and I'm sure that if anyone were to walk by, they would've heard our loud laughter. All of us had a story to tell and exchanging them was just...the funniest conversation ever! Especially in the car at the eleventh hour.
Oh what an outing we had. This was how I spent my Wesak Day this year.
Wednesday came. James turned 2 decades!!!! (Good job for waiting to open his present, somewhat). Mayuri planned a small birthday dinner as a surprise. And as always, he tries to keep his 'cool' or a poker face which isn't very convincing. (If you're reading this, oh well). I made a Hot pink shirt!!! Lousy he wasn't being a good sport to carry out the task given (=p).
Anyway, I got back just on time for contemp class. Went home to pick my fees, and mum said to drive instead because of the storm outside.
WHO KNEW I would be stuck right outside my housing area, and not even 1 min away from my dance studio....waiting and begging the procession on the road to pass by quickly for a few mins. Sigh. It was such a big deal. People were walking the streets with umbrellas all soaking wet since the rain was really bad. If only caroling during Christmas would be as awesome as that was. If only 'Easter' would be just as happening on the streets of Malaysia. =)
I missed 15mins of class but thankfully not the hardest parts. Wednesday's class was just crazy. The types of falls we had to do was really tough. Times like this reminded me of netball training in highschool; being stretched to my limits. I never thought of needing my arms to do so much other than help my family carry heavy bags of groceries and luggage when we travel. Never thought of using them to catch myself when I fall (literally). Today was the first time I had so much doubts of myself to even try the move. After doing it a handful of times and falling terribly, I gave up, promised to try on my bed at home. I hope I'll get right it by next week. But again, great workout, great time sweating it out. And, I met Kim! God is amazing. First, the girl I shared political science class with, then met her in church during Sat service one day to only find out that she started attending not too long ago and now, dance class. Haha.
Thursday, I managed to rest a lil'. At kindi, I helped out with waterplay for the first time. Darting away from water splashes wasn't fun. After, I helped the children change into their uniforms. Tough job when all they do is stand and not help by letting their waist swing along when I'm trying to pull their pants/skirts up. Gah. Worked with the 5 year olds once again (missed my lil babies upstairs). Another new bunch of children. Fun bunch. I sat through their lesson and laughed along as they gave silly answers innocently. Teacher also pening kepala.
Friday morning was a busy busy morning. Having stayed up late to pack (half) and type up my portfolio for CF, I woke up a lil' later and rushed rushed rushed. Late for class. Ooops. Had a good time of class, committee changeover during CF and rushed once again back home to continue packing for ghm getaway. The beach!!
What a week! Thank you God for events in my life!
And oh! Daddy's birthday is todayyy!!!! Sadly he won't be coming back just yet. God please help him. I cringe at the thought of knowing that ANYTHING can just go "poof!" and efforts would have gone to waste. Matt 6:34. Amen.
