Haven't actually written anything that made sense in a while. Why? Cos I've been too busy to think. Life has somewhat returned to normal. (based on what I remember 'normal' to be)
I guess this is how things are supposed to be? When responsibilities override emotions. So that you have no time to feel... And when you do have time, you don't know where to start.

She's gone so far, I don't see her anymore... But thats a choice she's made and I cannot do anything about it. As much as I would like her to be around, this is not my decision. There's a feeling of dread...
Imagine being on a train leaving a platform and you see a few people that you care about still on the platform. Some are running for the train still contemplating whether to jump on. Some are standing there looking forlorn thinking that they aren't able to come along. Some are laughing at me thinking I've made the wrong choice. And there she is... Holding on to her baggage which she wants to bring along. The same baggage which prevents her from getting on.
So I turn away and try to look forward but its a struggle between whats ahead and whats behind... And I feel that if either side doesn't win soon, I'll have neither...

Accompanied Xiong the most of saturday morning in his car following those who went for night cycling. I didn't cycle cos I was sick. Was out till 8-ish in the morning. Supposed to go for street E that afternoon but I felt really sick when I woke up.
Seeker service on sunday was good. A few minor problems with the sound but it was a really good production. After the message, 4 people came forward to receive Christ. A little kid, a teenager, a young adult and an old man. All ages and sizes!
Bought Story of the Year's album from HMV yesterday... Its quite good. Their style is quite varied. So its not boring. Went for a travel fair with Gan, Liwei, Nathan and Xiong. They're going to bintan next week. I won't be going. Need to save money!
