.: The Unpredictability of Life :.
There are two parts in this entry today, a happy one and a sad one.
First off, the happy one. Went out with Weining and Xiaowei yesterday to shop for Christmas presents for my friends and also, for them to get me my birthday present as they wanted to. Orchard on a Sunday is horrendously crowded, and really 人山人海. No doubt that after my first hour there walking, I wanted to immediately take the train and go to somewhere quieter and less crowded. Tourists and Singaporean alike were filling up the pathways and even though it rained for a while, it didn’t help make the traffic at the open areas better at all. Worse, the traffic within the malls got worse and there came to a point where there was a human jam. However, there is nobody to blame because its afterall, a Sunday and all families and friends will be out shopping, looking at the Christmas lightings in Orchard Road (which in my opinion is only ‘so-so’) and to just have fun! Orchard Road, is afterall, the buzz of this nation. I got my Christmas presents for my friends in the end and Weining and Xiaowei both got me a Nike Bag. That’s the unpredictable part of today. The bag was not cheap, not too expensive and was to be given as a Birthday-cum-Christmas present. At least I have a new school bag for the new school term! THANK YOU WEINING! THANK YOU XIAOWEI! To be close friends after so long and having to be distant from one another is really a blessing to treasure! I really want to thank you guys deeply!
Next, the sad story. I received a call this morning from my form teacher to hear only bad news. Life to me is so unpredictable. One day you see this, the next day you don’t. Nothing stays stagnant in life. One seemingly happy person may have so much misery and sorrow hidden behind that false smile. One seemingly sad person might just be putting on a façade for all to see. So, when can we actually know what’s true and what’s not. Somebody so healthy at times may just fall sick and be diagnosed with a medical problem the next moment. Miracles do happen but more often then not, the instruments of darkness will also strike on the unfortunate. The unpredictability of life can never be known to oneself. Probably that’s what we call fate?
Those who know about my classmate, please do help and just to reiterate whatever’s been told to you, I will be in school from 9am to 5pm this Thursday (27/12/07) to ‘receive your help’ so please do call me when your there and I will go outside school to find you! :) thank you!
Ending this post off in a happy note, here am I wishing all of you readers: a
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
HOHOHO!
