Ups and downs

So these few days, I had bit too much anger in me. Stuff happened in school that made me want to shout at some students and I had all these strong punchlines to deliver...

When i finally got down to doing it, I didn't shout or scream. But i felt more disappointment than anything... But after hearing them speak, I felt bit of hope. And I dont think anyone can blame me for still being sceptical about how much they can change or achieve..because seriously..after being disappointed for so long...

Anyway, Im relieved that my club is on the road to recovering. lets hope that they can stick to that path... if they do, then they are on the verge of improving. And i will finally see them in the golden age.

On other news, Ive become fitter now. been doing lots more physical fitness so slowly toning up and losing just that annoying bit of weight. bit more zumba, stair climbing, swimming etc. I can do this shit!!! Gotta thank the colleagues and Saad for the support hahaha Oh rock climbing too!

I've recently also made new friends. 2 chinese sound guys who have been helping at our school events. No they are not from china. They are just normal singaporean guys who talk a lot of nonsense and basically have fun. Think they sensed that I wasn't too happy and invited me down to have some dessert.

Also recently reunited with an old poly friend. Julian. Amazing indian guy who never grows old! still looks like how he was but w a goatee hahahaha

And recently, I finally learnt how to cycle!!! WWWOoooooo! FINALLY!!!
Did 1 lap of East Coast from start to end. Was good even though I was soon ready to swear at pedestrians. LOL

So in essence, life is good! Life goals and achievements are being ticked off :)

I remember why I dont watch movies anymore...

When people ask me about my fav past-time, I realise that there isn't much I can say and I dont even watch much movies.
Watched a movie recently and was reminded why...
Because I always end up really liking the male lead...
Of course a lot of woman get bowled over by the charms and chivalry of the male lead. And that exactly what I dnt like..about myself.
I get sold on that character and that idea very easily...
That guy from Divergent who looks a lot like Marlon Brando (Who also looks bloody good), The guy who acted as Star Lord In Guardians of the Galaxy and more...
Maybe just being single means you fall into that trap easily. That you start dreaming of a person like that who would fulfil those crazy fantasies.
And thats why I find it irritating and annoying when I find myself in these situations...
Its obviously human to end up dreaming of these crazily chiseled and mysterious "heroes" in ur dreams... unfortunately I might be one of them sad females i guess...

Whilst I know that the thoughts and character of a person is so imp, i hate to admit that looks do play a part, physique does play a part...

Maybe Im just a weak female after all...

Realization

Maybe its just one of those times that makes me just that bit more emotional... *shrugs

Anyway I was reminded today that as an officer, we can never and will never "belong" to any club. because we have to many of them. Which might be sad but it has to be so..I guess.
We have to be impartial, objective and hence its probe not a good idea to be too gummy to them, especially if you;re anything like me.

Anyway today is the wedding of two of the ISC alumni. Yes they are married to each other. :) I get bit excited to see the alumni, especially those who have come together, gotten married with each other etc. Today was like a double celebration..seeing them get married, and a mini unofficial ISC alumni gathering.

Admitedly, yesterday's headache left me dazed and almost unwilling to turn up. but knowing that the groom had personally asked me to turn up, I did...walking them walk down that aisle together did make me tear.

Catching up with some alumni who had disappeared for such a long timing resurfaced for this occasion, was a pleasant surprise.

But when one of them exclaimed and said " you are from ISC meh" twice, I gotta admit that my emotions and maybe even pride got the better of me. SIGH..

Truly I am not. :) I didn't sign up for it, never went through camp and interviews with them etc. Didi none of that with them and as such, if thats what it takes to be in ISC, no Im not from ISC.

This goes to show one thing though..I have spent too much time with my "kids" and forgotten how to live my own life. And now that such a reminder has been said, I can't help but tell myself " well...you sorta deserved that" "you weren't entirely there for them when they needed it and yet you were with them too much to remember that you had your own life. So essentially, its a lose lose situation. *shrugs*

do i feel hurt? yeah probably so. But hurt is as much a part of life as is happiness and anger. And such one just needs to learn from it. Where do I go from here? I guess Im reminded to step back bit more again. Which is a lot easier considering that I am no longer the officer of this club.

The members will always have their memories and feel their ownership of the club. But the officer will never have that sense of belonging. :) because the officer will always be seen as an officer.

God Bless

ramblings....

Graduation Ceremony is happening...
I didn't have many graduating students but those I had, I was happy and proud of them. :)
To see them grow within their years in SP is an amazing thing.
Some of them I know will conquer life because of their tenacity. Some I want to see enter the army and become men instead of just boys.

And then to those whom have become men and come back to visit, I always end up being amazed by how mature they've become. And I also wonder what Ive done to enjoy such privilege of their visitation....What have I done in my life?
Am I really a good officer? Or just someone whom the kids liked or felt was cool?

I guess no matter what it is, I dont want to take it for granted. I want to be a better officer..always.

And in the midst of that, i want to be a better person...

Maybe it seems almost desperate of me. Which I hope not..
But I guess sometimes I wonder what other girls have that I dont..maybe I'm just not feminine enough. LOL. dont have them X factor hahahaha
But honestly, whilst it makes me feel down sometimes...I mostly just want a person whom makes me laugh and makes me feel comfortable in my own skin. Is that not what everybody wants?
What if there comes a day where the media corrupts people's minds to the point that people just can't accept the "normal" type of person in the real world. i.e: the non sexy, non provocative kinds haha
What if they are educated to think that the base line of a girl they like would be one with the moves and the makeup? That would be the saddest thing in the world..

Anyway... it almost feels like that is happening..

Just want someone who makes me laugh heartily... who has real thoughts, can be mature yet almost child-like at times, knows how to look after themselves and others. someone whom i can speak to for hours and not wonder if this person is actually listening or faking it?

The child in me...

Felt the need to be a kid at some point today. Some times its tiring to seem like you are in control or that you are mature all he time.. always thinking about all aspects of each matter.

Sometimes I just dont want to care about anything for a day...curl up in a chair and sip on milo, fall asleep in it, whine abit and have someone go " awww there there"

Am I the only weird one? Do we all at some point feel the need to be childish, to say silly things?

Or do we all do so well at being mature that it never occurred for us to just let it go?

In fact, I felt guilty feeling the need to be silly to a select few people whom I can trust to be silly to..

There are truly only a select few whom I feel I can bare my soul to..although I guess Im constantly worried about being judged and being viewed as weak and emotional.
I dont need to be judged or assessed. I just need to be loved, to be heard , and to be understood.

There are a bunch of people whom I can't bring myself to appear weak...

I guess Im really just waiting for the person, the One..to come, make me laugh make me feel that its okay to be myself in front of him. Like..really be myself. It's emotional, crazy, nonsensical, chatty, quiet, cuddly, nonchalant person..
To appreciate my contradictions without feeling the need to ask why until I take too long to tell him.
Someone who will sit by me, ask me how I am and wait patiently for me to conjure up the right words to say it...

God Bless
