Mood:happy Happiness event of the day: called home. Event of the week: Attending a Destiny's Child concert this coming Sunday. I twisted my ankle!!! ggggrrr.... it's quite funny, considering the fact I came back from the hiking trip fine. [though the ankle was weakened from the trip, of course.] I was talking extra care to walk properly and look out for potential out-to-trip-cindy rocks, stones, uneven ground, stairs. And I still managed to trip. In my own house. On my way to my room. Arrrgghh...the heavens are against me.
But it's ok. I refuse to allow a small injury like this to affect my mood. It's sometimes quite funny, cos Li's injured as well, and she's on clutches. While I'm just limping. Just now, while we were walking down the corridor together after a class, an acquaintance came by, and asked, "Did you guys go skiing over springbreak or something?" HAhahahhaha...it was so funny. Of course, I didn't tell her that actually I acquired the injury in civilisation, in my own house. Heh.
I cannot explain why I'm in such a good mood now, since nothing really special happened. I think it's a combination of many things. One, I've finally put my foot down [haha, corny] and decided that I want to go back to singapore for the whole summer break. I guess something was just hanging over my mind when my plans are not confirmed. and since now they are, I feel better. And somehow, there's a lot of nice emails for me these days. From friends in singapore, mostly. From Po, Ming, random people. Even my brother sent me an email, which is quite rare. And significantly longer than his usual 3-liners. He was concerned about why I've not called home for so long, and offered to help me if I had romantic problems. HAhhaa....my brother cracks me up.
The weather's beautiful today too. Maybe because I walk so much slower now with a limp, the sun feels warmer, the sky looks clearer and all these wonderful feelings get magnified so much more. Ah, one of the advantages of being temporarily handicapped. Man, I can even find a silver lining out of my painful ankle, something has to be wrong. Heh. Just now, I was getting coffee from the break room in the engineering building. A girl spilled my coffee accidentally, and my clothes got stained. She was so apologetic, but I must have looked really weird, cos I was smiling the whole time, and didn't seem to care. Man, if this happened to me a few weeks back, I might have snapped. I mean, not at her, but I would probably have whined about it here. But not today. I probably will forget about this incident soon. Brain notes: do not remember unimportant glitches.
I think I should go grab lunch now, and not only will I be a happy person, I'll be a really happy person. Cos I'm actually hungry now.
