The Amazing Race
Took part in a church event today. Had to bring my kids to Changi Airport for a Race/Treasure HUnt. Despite my scheming ways and blatent cheating(hope none of my kids or their parents see this or I'll be impeached faster than you can say cigar...lol), we lost.......dammit......must be God trying to tell me that the dark side doesn't always win.....like how Arse-Anal beat the valiant Devils in the FA Cup Final on penalties.....those no good scums....but why is the better half of manchester nicknamed tt of the devils....shouldn't it be angel.....the "red angels"...hmmm, sounds wussy.
But retrospectively speaking, its probably for the better that Team Poa which goes by the alias Galilee 3 didnt win today. Mustn't expose the poor kids to all the harsh realities of this world.....must let them think that good will triumph over evil.....like how we were ousted by this team that played honestly(maybe its because the dumb klutz of teacher didnt realise that there was an additional teachers clue pack that came with the envelopes that were passed to us at the start.) No matter, am not a sore loser.......fucky, i lost....bargghhh! Am going to escape theme park with the kids next week for cohesion day. Am the ultimate coolest teacher in sunday school I tell u. I really like being with these kids, whom whilst on the brink of adolescence and the angst and darkness that comes with it, they maintain this child-like innocence which is a real inspiration for ol' me. Sometimes I wonder if it is really me who is the teacher....well, proven today that the bad guys don't always win aint it? Maybe doing things the right way will somehow or someway work out with the grace of God.
Went for a church bbq yesterday, xinyi brought a pretty friend along, from canada. A real breath of fresh air from the mundane s'pore girls......oops....mustn't be so superficial....must be nice. What I really meant was urm.....nice down to earth s'pore girls? yah, that sounds nice.....what a pity she's leaving for Canada soon. = ( Hope Xinyi tells her good things abt me.....otherwise she can stop being my sister's music teacher. I know u're reading this oxy. =)
Am going to watch Revenge of the Sith next week. Am reading the book now so I can spot all the subtle nuances in the show like when Anakin falls to the Dark Side. A real embodiment of a flawed hero Anakin is.....fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate , hate leads to suffering.(all in a yodalish tone) OOOmmm.....am being philosophical here.(*pause for a moment of silence)
Recieved feedback that my entries are getting a tad lengthy, will try to keep it short from now onwards, mustn't spent all my genius so soon, might get writer's block like JK Rowling and produce a long if sub-standard book like in order of the phoneix. Gd nite folks and in case I don't see ya, gd morning, gd afternoon and gd evening as well. POA signing off.
