the man who can't be moved.
been a rather eventful week, those most of the past few days were spend with both my parents overseas. it also meant missing breakfast on most of the days either cause i overslept or simply am too lazy to fix something. out of the few changes there were one was the most significant, the onus was on me to account for my sister's well-being and safety. so imagine my horror when she phoned me and said, "eh i was robbed." oh yes, she was staying at my grandma's for the time-being.
okay i myself aint too sure about the actual details, as most of our subsequent telephone conversations was about me telling her i would go take her to make a police report with her pleading not too as she was too afraid. apparently she either dropped her wallet and some young guy behind her picked it up and ran off, or he might have picked it out of her pocket after bumping into her. yes that isn't robbery, thank God.
and she scared the living daylights out of me when she went uncontactable for a good 5 and a half hours, even my grandma wasnt at home to pick up her phone. plus it was the darn the heaven's cried and it was flooded everywhere. it was so so hard to focus on shepherd's meet while her phone kept going into voicemail. haha funny thing was she actually coaxed my grandma to take her home to get some stuff and "while we are here might as well" help her pack her room.
yeah and went for kim's 21st birthday party yesterday. yes incase you all bought in to whatever she said about samuel and i being so willing and volunteered to perform, and to "climb mountains" for her, let us first establish that she successfully conned both of us to do so some 7 days ago. "fine, i wont mind if samuel agrees." and "okay sure if shawn agrees.", actually turned out to me "samuel agrees." and "shawn agrees" to her lol. so that was how she successfully conned us into agreeing by telling us that the other had already agreed. okay if u are still following that is.
we did "how six songs collide", a medley made out of the 'collision of six songs'(duh) my norwegian recycling. the other items put up was awesome though. her dunman high cg did some cover of michael jackon's billy jean which really quite set the bar. haha that guy, wadeva his name is, can really sing. and then her friend(sheesh i forgot her name!) played the guitar and sang some song, and gosh she sings so awesomely! haha no seriously im wasnt smittened into a poor objective judgement but she seriously was good!! has that style and swagger in her voice, very much suited for the genre of the song. qianjin did 'the man who can't be moved' by the script, which i thought was a considerable effort for such a hard song, though just a tad too fast.
well anyway, quite a fun and memorable party overall i must say? got to meet up with some of the youth peeps whom i havent seen in a while, like finally hearing qianjin sing after like almost 2 yrs. haha back then it was almost every week during ministry time. yeah i guess its true you know. like what kim said, parties no doubt a chore to organise actually is a good time to be used to catch up with one another and foster old/new friendships. oh well. we'll see how i would wanna have my 21st then.
anyway, keith woo came by my place just hours ago to try out the threadless shirt sizes. he wants to order them but dont really know whether the sizes fits. haha yeah i know so yesterday right? lol anyway threadless is having some 2 day free-shipping sale so u might wanna check it out. haha after some deliberation and erm, much nervous moments i decided, that since both my parents were out, and the traffic is minimum at night, and i'm just so tempted and still way too young to die, i took my parents car out for a spin. haha first time driving an auto-car. i was actually quite surprised it moves by itself, yes i know lah that's what it means right. oh man the thrill of driving out onto the main road, without so much as even a triangle plate. haha i duno if it was nervousness, the adrenaline, the fear of getting caught behind the wheel of a mobile without a license, or a mixed emotion of anxiety and thrill that kept us laughing quite abit. and taking the route on the main road was really quite, erm an experience.
anyway, in case you're wondering my driving test is on the nov 26. hope i pass then and finally, OFFICIALLY get licensed. and guys.. 8 more days till 'ALTER THE ENDING'!!!
