I Try So Hard

I’m counting down to the very last day of work, what does that make me?  I did enjoy my work, and I am still enjoying it.

I’m trying to write a blog post here but a prospective student’s father is chatting with me.  WHERE DID MY LIFE GO?

He was walking down the aisle.  Not disturbed by the perturbed glances thrown by students eyeing the cheese bun he is chewing nonchalantly.  From afar he makes out the shape of the lady whom he despises.  She walks towards him swiftly, raises her eyebrows, and asks “when are you leaving.”  The man, being polite, replied to her, “the seventh.”  Upon hearing his response, the lady pulls an agitated face.

I could have just said, “it’s none of your business” or just walked away without saying anything.  She thinks I’m arrogant and snobbish, but I haven’t the slightest clue what wrong I did to her.  I hope she _________________

spinning in my head

It's Saturday night/Sunday morning. I should be asleep right now but weekends only happen on weekends. This Sabbath was quite interesting. The church pastor will be talking about Sabbath-keeping throughout the Sabbaths of this month. He mentioned the necessity of saying "No!" to requests. That's a skill I have yet to master. Another point he brought up was that the Sabbath is meant for communion with friends, family, and God. Well, some people will have to take that seriously. A few updates for this week, I think you know that I have rearranged the room, and I am on the verge of buying some traditional-Thai looking furniture/items to fill the room up. Don't ask me why I'm buying these things when I'm close to leaving. Yes, I've started using this traditional face wash and cream. Many of my friends are using it and it has proven worth trying.

BAREFOOTERS love DUMPLINGS

Yes, that’s the name of the singing group I’m in.  Me and a bunch of friends started singing a couple of years back.  Members have gone and come… gosh don’t get me started I WANT TO CRY…sobs. Here are some pictures of practices we have.  We believe in having food and fun during practice time.  You know how vocalists emphasize the activeness of bridge between our eyes during singing and vocalization/warm-ups. We, instead of looking silly with crazy eyes while singing, opt for another type of stimulant… DONE prior to practice.  DUMPLINGS!!!! I’m so going to miss these beautiful people.
