Hi:) I'm sure alot of eyes are popping now. When does Kaixian ever blogs?? Maybe I'm trying to be more normal. Actually I wanted to write something. After all I haven't attended any gatherings since jan.
oh, about the senior-junior class gathering, there will not be one anytime soon. kuixi smsed me to say the response to the beach outing this sat, from the senior class, is so-so. some find it wierd to go so I don't think the seniors will go.
As many of you will know I didn't work. No, I'm not slacking (I prefer to say that I am relaxing:)). I'm helping out with the housework, enjoying myself, eating and reading. Thank goodness I haven't gained any weight. I actually lost weight. Probably because I am kind of exercising every day (I have no excuse not to). Skipping, to be exact. For some reason or another, my mom actually thinks that if I skip now, there is a shimmer of hope that I will grow taller, so I'm skipping to stop her from nagging at me, not that I think it works. If any of you are thinking of getting a book, do pick up books by Jodi Picoult. She is a brilliant writer and the topics she chooses are rather unconventional but thought-provoking.
The only exciting event so far is the health scare I had in April/May. Some of you will know that I had a surgery in early may to remove this lump in my breast. Thank goodness it is benign:) To all the girls, do do remember to do self-examination. My gynae says that males can get breast cancer too, so do go for regular check-ups:)
The days before and after the operation was ironically, one of the happiest moments in my life. many people often think that happiness is dependent on external factors, but it isn't. What I discovered through this scare was that happiness caused by external factors is temporary and impermanent; only happiness caused by internal factors like attitude towards life is permanent and true happiness. Some times, I think life is fair. Nobody can ever have everything he/she wants. If you have A you will not have B or only part of it. So just appreciate what you have and don't lament about what you haven't.
I really apologise for making this so philosophical but I wanted to share with everybody this experience. To 3!, I really apologise for only informing all of you after the surgery but i wasn't in the mood to talk about it.
For the girls, uni is starting soon and for the guys, training continues. Do take care:) Hope to see everyone soon!
