Sermon today was boring... 'Christianity and Divorce'. Mad topic... The majority of the people attending 2nd service were around my age. More than half aren't married. I didn't like the sermon at all... I don't like that fact that even if you 'play by the rules' you get 'cheated' and you still 'lose'... Heheheh, I'm just being sore now.

She came to church. Think its funny how they were queueing up just to talk to her. Its kind of disgusting if you think about it. I'm not gonna waste my time on her. I'm not gonna to encourage her in this by giving her attention. She doesn't fit my requirements. No, I'm not being proud and I don't think I'm setting too high a standard. I drew up a list of 'requirements' that a person has to fulfill before I consider that person as a partner. It seems that she's stopped fulfilling those requirements. Its just too bad... I asked Lynette whether I was asking for too much because there didn't seem to be anyone fulfilling the important parts of my requirements. She encouraged me by saying, "You still have the rest of your one year. Why you worry? God could be preparing someone right now."

I returned Eileen's stuff to her... Feel better now... She didn't look too pleased to have to lug around that plastic bag but I don't care. I've been putting it off for too long. Feel freer now. Still think that this relationship could have been real though. I guess its just too bad either way...

Went for lunch at Bedok with my parents, sister and brother-in-law... Had Ban Mian... Came home and bummed around till 6 plus. Went down to play soccer with some guys from my estate. Gosh, it felt good!! Its been quite a while since I've played fast paced soccer... I feel that I did quite well. Scored 4 goals. Hee... took my mind off things... Quite disappointed right now. I must not let this affect me.
