There are times when I feel like I should shut down this blog already, considering maintenance work is performed only once every two weeks or so, but then again all my memories are contained in this place, however small they are. So I guess it's not the end for Think Thank Thunk yet!

However if you're interested, I blog HERE EVERY SINGLE DAY. *wipes sweat off forehead*

Anyways, to summarize my past two weeks, work hasn't exactly been a bed of roses, but there are some pretty exciting times too. Like the times when I get paid to eat (Muahaha. Interested? Come intern with me too ;p)

It is incredibly tiring however, staring at a computer screen for 9 hours straight (1 hour break in between but still), and then to rush home for a rushed dinner only to rush off again to Andrew's place/church. But it's only for 2 months so I'm going to hang in there.

I used to want to rush home after work when I first started. And then I discovered how therapeutic it is to just take a slow(er) drive and enjoy the orangey/purpley/dark bluey sky in the evening on the federal highway with Late Night Alumni playing on my mp3 (before rushing off again. Sigh). It's the time when I unwind and just let my thoughts swim aimlessly. And I've come to enjoy it immensely. There are twilights when I wish the Federal Highway would just go on and on (the non-jam stretches mind you!)

I hate hate hate driving to work in the late mornings though. That's when the sun scorches my arms, turning them into an abnormal shade of burnt sugar compared to other parts of my body. I damn tak puas. I'm gonna start wearing one of my mom's aunty long shirts just so that my arms won't burn anymore. Harhar.

I haven't had time for much else since work started. The old newspapers are piling up, and I haven't watched the telly/a movie since. But then I guess that's mainly because of Camporama worrrrrkkkk laaaaaa... I hope working life isn't actually this busifying. Cause if two weeks is already so tiring, how am I gonna manage a lifetime?!! O.o But I'll find something else chillax to do la. Maybe open a dive centre in Mauritius or something.

Anyway, I'm glad I'm gonna be meeting up with friends and cousin this week. Yay! Hopefully this coming week will have more surprises in store too (more food reviews, launches...) weeeheeee.

Also, been wanting to share this video since I found it. So Happifying! If only we have stuff like that here. (Randomacts doesn't count cos the stuff they do aren't as fun as this!)

The Super Saturday

My friend and I were talking while watching a bunch of guys clown around with this super tall ladder at church. They were trying to hang up balloons for the kids rally later, thus the super tall ladder.

"Sometimes I wonder what it's like to to be a man," I mused to her. She lighted up suddenly. "Hey! I think that too! But they cannot sit like you la of course. It'll be so uncomfortable." *grins*

I looked down. I was on the floor, leaning against a monitor with both my legs stretched out in front of me and crossed at the ankles.

"Oh ya hoh. Hhahahahahhaha."

She proceeds, "But if er, small then can la. But then you see people like N-- A---- (hahahhaha Bawanie try guessing who ;p), he never sits like that wan."

"Why? Cos big ah? hahahahahahhahahhahahahhaha"

Her husband comes along and sits beside us. And he stretches his legs out and crosses them at the ankles. Just like me.

My friend and I look at each other, and giggle. Well she giggles la. I burst out laughing.

"So what does that say about him? Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahhahahhaahhahahahahahahhahahahhahahhahhahah"

Husband: "Oh you teaching her how to see izit. Don't teach her wrong things ah."

"Hahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahahahhaha"

Another tip from the friend: Smart guys are smaller, cos all the nutrients go to their brains. Stupider men, on the other hand, mmm.

She picked a super smart guy yknow. Hee.

There is nothing quite like playing the drums for a kids rally for a full body workout. I tell youuu... I came back with arms, legs and neck all aching-ish and feeling one kind. I've played many times for youth service, but the kids rally, i tell you the kids rally is the bomb lah. Damn kau fast songs. Damn chun. Damn adrenaline rush.

*****

So after playing for the rally I went up for prayer meeting. The rally was still going on and they were playing a music complilation thingy for their skit. And then while praying I suddenly heard the all too familiar soundtrack that I practically lived with the whole of October last year.

Thriller-MJ!!

Duuddeeeee. For a kids easter rally in church. Hahah. I almost wanted to get up and do the zombie dance. (Except I forgot all the steps after the butt shaking part). And I almost laughed out loud in the middle of prayer.

*****

Church is so happening these days. Hehe. And I serve an Awesome, amazing God. There is nothing in the world that beats that.

Wooott....

Click!!

I wonder if em donuts will still be there on Monday. hehe. I'm actually really excited and I have a good feeling about this. I've been asking God what I should do if both the wunnerful companies got back to me. And then I came up with a simple solution. Just pick the first one that calls la kan? Sometimes you just have to leave it up to providence/luck/fate/fortune/whateveryouwannacallit which, in my opinion, is just God at work, making life easier for you and working His magic in simple, subtle ways.

I like everything about it... the people, place, parking, pay and positivity. Heh the Ps weren't intentional (except the positivity). Monday, here I come!!

I didn't realize Tracy Chapman was so nice to listen to. She's one of those artistes that just grows on you. I was pleasantly surprised when I played her again. Er, ok that doesn't sound quite right but whatever.

Off to construct a primitive shelter out of wood and wire netting laterrr. Ta.
