Today
rocked. After school, me ming, sherlyn, javine, chay & pet went far east to
'walk-walk' (: And of course we took some neos. We went to the neon orange booth again, and cos there was three cameras to choose from, we kind of switched around and stuff. When we took the one closest to the ground, it was pretty cute! Everyone was screaming and shouting about, like "quick! get in the photo!!! Let me be seen! I can't see!!" that kind of thing. And the neos we took were pretty cool too. (: Bought
turkish ice-cream, and although ming said it tastes more goo-y than the norm, I couldn't tell! :x oh well..
And today was the first time I met like,
5 choir people at the same recess break! At first it was me and loon, and we were like "hiiii!" cos usually I don't see her at all. Then Sooni joined in. (: And after that I sat with Xiumin & saw Hongyi & XinZi! Today was great. ;) Oh! On my way home I met Lee yang & Zee Hui (rv friends)! At first I couldn't recognize them, than I remembered! They sure have grown! :D And I saw
clara and rachel ng [renng] too! At the same time.. Today rocked.
Tomorrow is Sports Day thing. Bishan Sports Complex at 12.30pm! Good! Waking up in the late morning is
f.u.n..
Hmm.. Maybe now I'll have the time to address certain issues. Where should I start...
Life. Lots of people don't know what their life is all about. Like,
what am I doing here. Why am I even here.
What is the purpose of my existence. etc. Stuff like that. I thought about it last year, questioning the purpose of everthing, especially my
mere existence. Initially I found that people have no purpose in this world, and now I think
some people see it that way too. Think about it. We work our socks off for what?
To get good grades.
And good grades for what?
To get a great, well-paying job. And after that?
To get a nice husband, live in some landed property, and get 3 children and 2 cars. And then? Just live
lah, than we can all grow old.
And
then?? When we get old enough, we'll
die eventually.
It's really
terribly bleak. It's sort of like,
living to die, if you look at it in that light, which totally doesn't click very well.
I think
I have found my purpose of existence, and everyone can find theirs too. People should have a
goal or vision (ok, now I'm sounding like a principal) to work for, then won't life be so much more
meaningful? Like for example, Mother Teresa. (Ok, now I'm sounding like a CME teacher.) She spent her life serving others who are in need, and she was
happy doing that. That was what she lived for, worked for,
breathed for. It's really cool isn't it? To work for the benefit and for
common good, not just "
for myself".
That's all I'm going to say, cos if I continue I'll really sound
teacher-ish! :x Oh, and I know what I'm living for!
No prizes for guessing.. I'm living for Jesus. (:
