Pensive night - count your blessings

As I pen down my tots tonight, I thought I am a little sad. Not that I am being bullied but a lot of little and big things that happened lately and the bottled up feelings just get trapped inside…

I m still coping well at work, lots of free breaks in school, just that I am trying very hard to finish my stuff so that I wont need to bring home. But sadly, I think its not possible.

On a lighter note, I finished my series of lectures for Term 1! Finally ever since the start of school, I’ve been at the rostrum for weeks till I m really numbed. So glad that its over, I can get some rest before I start the next round after March holidays.

Been also running back home very often for the hot soup and familiar dishes and meeting up with frenz for dinner. The folks are also popping by quite often to help out with the chores and I do appreciate it deeply :) taking care of the husband (who is equally as moo as me i realise at times) and the house (which is like i cant rem whether my scongee is in master room or study room or dinning table or living room or master toilet or common toilet tt kind of extent...) is no small deal lor... not forgetting the waking up at 530 in the morn...

And esp this festive season, I find myself hosting guests after guests, wkends after wkends and the cleaning up before the visits and clearing up after the visits… and my visitor list is not done yet. So those of u guys who have been to the Ang Residence, u r considered lucky! And for those who are still waiting, ur turn will come eventually.

i bought wii. but i dun even have time to play it. i have a few magazines and i haven got the chance to sit down and read it. my GEM drama episodes r slowly accumulating and i hardly get to watch them consistently & regularly...

Some issues which I cannot reconcile with but have to give blessings because its my beloved friend’s happiness afterall. I respect the decision. :)

The daughter of someone closed to me just passed away lately. It brought a lot of pensive moments for me. I don’t need to be close to her in order to feel sad. I don’t need to know her well enough to know how she has impacted lives of people around her with her optimism.

As I sat in the church service today to bid her farewell, my heart stirred with emotions. My heart pained for the grieving mother whom I respect, I teared when I read the poems that the little girl wrote. Then suddenly flashbacks of that day @ church with him, the caring teachers around me, new challenges at work… my lovely husband, my loving yet naggy parents, my sweet and surprising quite hardworking students that motivates me, my grandfather… how I want people around me to remember me as? How much can I give?

My heart felt so heavy with all the random things… oh did I tell u tt I am a blue – did a character analysis in Jan and found out I am the super emo kind~ I think my hubby is a green – analytical coz he’s a physics guy… i think it's gonna take a while to connect to that emotional level, afterall we are from venus and mars...
i should count my blessings. :)
