thurs was a bore. finished potter. ttz about it. no worship at night for me. disappointment. oh well.
friday was a different case i guess. by far.
early in the morning i woke up. and headed down to church. honestly i din know what was going on. or what i was supposed to be doing. followed zhixian marvin and jayne to chesire home. turned out that me and jayne were going to follow a pastor's family, a volunteer and a driver off for an outing to the seletar farmway animal resort and carrefour. quite fun i guess. wheeling about the disabled people around the farm. feedin the animals. rubbing the horse. seeing the food disappear from ur hand while the rabbits nibble at it. helping them feed the animals. all of them are so fun. some are more enthusiastic den others. but all brought warmth to the place. after that we headed down to suntec and to carrefour to do some shopping. i din do any shopping. and neither did my charge. but i spent a gd hour or so wheeling him around the top floor. he was juz contented to look at the stuff that the store were selling. he was not really interested in the tv and electronics side too. i could see his eyes sparkle at a couple of sections. i remember the baby section where they sell all the clothes. i pushed slower den. more time. only on that day. did i realize how big carrefour was. and how tiring it is juz to walk a couple of rounds! appreciating the simple things in life. after that on the way back to church. i tink the bus driver took a super long route. through mountbatten and all. seemed like a joy ride. =)

after reaching church i soon had to rush home to change. cuz i was going out for red later that night. honestly i din know what it was about. they told me that it was 20 bucks and that it was about diff types of music. and i was shocked. not at the start though. it only seemed like an ordinary concert. den came. the blues. hahaha. he was awesome man. not juz the lead. the whole band. i guess they're pro and all. but they GOOD=) all their solos so power. esp the bass. din know how slapping sounded like before then. and he certainly gave a brilliant example. it was lighthearted after that. there was a percussion band. woah. hand pain i tell u the way they hit. but the rhythm and the beat that they produced. beauuuutiful!! it ended kinda heavy with an alternative rock band. which were less den impressive. lyrics not v nice. but the guitar was gd. i only can remember two songs. their more meaningful ones i feel. teh first was the one that they had composed for the concert itself. awesome. the guitarist with the red guitar( dunno whether they intended the pun ) was so totally on that day. his guitar was superb. totally man. totally dumbfounded when i heard that song. hahah. the other one was the song they had composed during the gulf war ( they're old! ) more meaningful song lyrics. i tink. about freedom and stuff. yeah. that was red. depressed after that. the true proness of electric guitar finally struck me that night. and the beauty of music. even though it ended at 11. at nus cultural centre. its worth it.
everything paled in comparison over the weekend to the two occasions.

now im back in sch. gotta start doing some serious work man. and i dunno what im doing here 12.20 in the morning. hope i dun sleep in class tmr.

all i am for all u are
and what i need and what i believe.
are worlds apart.
