I enjoyed my weekend. Saturday was something I'd looked forward to for so long. The soccer 'match' with Agape Methodist Church. It wasn't really a match because we had all mixed together and formed 2 groups. Really missed playing soccer on a field. There's nothing like it. The exhileration of running down the field at full speed with a ball at your feet is incredible. The thought of giving a penetrating pass or cross which would result in a goal sends shivers down my spine everytime I think about it. Soccer will always draw people. Its a universal game which anyone can play. If you can run and you can kick, you can play. Simple yet beautiful at the highest level.
So there was Joe who's been joining us more often in cell and church activities. There's Daniel, one of Dale's old pals from army. There was Issac, Derick's friend I think. The Agape youth were good sports too although they weren't used to our agressive style of soccer. But there were 2 or 3 of them who managed fine though. The Agape youth wanted to play them versus us in the 2nd half so we lent them 4 players. Unfortunately 2 of them got hurt. :/
Had practice after church. Only 2 songs because of seeker service next week. It felt good to play the drums for worship after more than a month hiatus. Had fun jamming with Xiong & Joe after the practice too. Went to suntec for 15 minutes before taking a cab down to 85 for dinner. Didn't feel like eating much. Too tired.

Temporary rush of pleasure
Forgotten, gone in an instant
Creations of desire
Filling the silky sky
Perhaps the end is here
Slowly the memory ebbs away
The pain is plastered
With the softest laughter
Forgive me if I distance myself
Promises broken and lies kept
Rebuild, Restructure
Life begun from the bottom rung
The reality of it rains down
Wave after wave of dreams destroyed
The fragments cut deep
Like attrition, it whits you away
Staring past you, the forbidden
Unable to meet your eyes
Like pools, pure and deep
An invitation to fall in
Traces of hope with every smile
Every glance, stolen like prized jewels
But in the end happiness reigns
For patient proximity is enough for me
