I single-handedly messed up my Hongkong vacation trip(to go mission trip, no less), and now everyone is messing up their plans with me as if to get back at me.

But hey, the disruption wasn't intentional okay.

The college day thing didn't work out, no basketball and I didn't even felt like going back to school. Nothing to look forward to and I really didn't care if I got the award or not. Then didn't manage to catch Over The Hedge because nobody wants to watch it with me. Even my p6 kids snubbed the show. 'Huh, we DON'T WANT to watch CARTOON!'

Then the canoe polo training was cancelled due to unknown reason. I was like looking forward to it sooo much and it didn't happen. Great. And there was suppose to be a trip to Sentosa today. Cancelled too. I waited like an idiot there, thinking if the meeting is still on. But apparently some people decided that the weather was too bad and they had more important things to do then to trot down to the sunny island.

The weather is so fine today. I am going for a swim later. Later because if I go now, I will most probably get sun-burnt.

So I wasted a lot of time and effort waiting and anticipating and in the end, it all had to be unfulfilled. Splendid, splendid. The only damage control today was my p6 cell group. Cell outing was really great, it seems to be the only thing that didn't got cancelled. And those who promised to turn up kept their word.

Isn't it amazing that I always get so much out of these kids? Sometimes I wonder whether I am giving them as much as I am receiving from them. They are always bundles of joy and they never ever will play you out. Although there are times when the boys will drive me crazy, they always make it up with their endless sincerity. Even if you call them childish, I call them treasures.

And they get happy easily. A bag of potato chips will do the job. If you should see the glow in their eyes when you bring a bag of chips for them, you will understand why the p6 cell leaders held on to them even though it is not always easy. When I am around them, I never get disappointment, sadness or doubts. Well anger comes up sometimes but it is usually quickly forgotten. They are really my damage control.

Kids are really easier to please.

Was suppose to meet chit and lp in town but decided not to because of the travelling. I guess they will never understand how far it is for me to go back home from town. Add in the fatigue and bad mood, going town really doesn't seem appealing to me at all. But whatever, nobody ask you to live in hougang what. Hahah. This whole series of messed up plans is going to make me a very lazy person, I tell you.

Grrrr. You should just smile and be happy you know.
