Troubles?

[Start: 12.13 am, 30/10]

Rainy

What has been on my mind?

Nothing much, I must say. It's just that I never thought about the things I did to people so seriously before.

Especially not before today.

Recap--

I went out with Mr U. again.
However, today, the person who was late was me.
I ate my lunch a little too late, thus delaying the time I left for our meeting place.
Coincidentally, We met at 'Somerset', the station after 'Orchard' on the Red line.

Well, anyway, I was so late that instead of arrivin at 4.30pm, I got there at almost 5.
[Note to self- I seriously need to be more time conscious.... sigh...]

So, I got a whole lot of scoldings from him, and in the end I had to apologise to him again and again...

After the whole lot of apologising, we went to the nearest "Mac/Apple" shop to go take a look at the products. It was quite interesting looking at all the iPods and iMacs...

We had stayed there for about half an hour. As I was feeling bored of staying at the same place, I told my friend that we should leave the shop. Thus, we walked out of the "Cine-leisure" Shopping Centre {Where the [Mac] Shop was}, and went over to "Heeren/HMV", to do some more shopping...

It was sort of interesting to have this shopping spree with my friend, as I usually did it by my friend. Thus, it can be said to be quite enjoyable and dun to have someone to talk to and just like see clothes and all that.

Soon,I started to hear my stomach growling, so we decided to grab a bite. We went over to this 'sort of' outdoor food outlet, called "Kopitiam" [Essentially, it means "Coffee Shop" in the Hockien Dialect].

We found a seat, ordered our food, and were starting to eat, when my friend realised something. He had forgot to mention to the chef that he didn't want chilli added to his food. He ended up needing to get a drink from the drinks stall nearby.

Halfway thru our [windy] meal, I started feeling tiny droplets of water falling onto my hands and body. I realised that it was starting to drizzle. The instant it dawned on me, I quickened my eating speed, and finished my food in no time.

My friend, however, couldn't catch up with my speed, due to the fact that he was eating a chilli laced food, and he wasn't used to eating things that spicy. As the rain steadily got bigger, we had no choice but to shift places. By that time, I had opened up my umbrella, but my friend didn't have one, so he rushed to the nearest shelter, which was something of a sheltered platform.

While my friend found a seat to eat at, I watched this group of youths practicing a dance routine... It was interesting, as I never really had the chance to really see people dance and all that.

Very soon, my friend finished his food, and we decided to leave that sheltered platform to go to somewhere more "cooling" [lol]. So, we went over to Cine-leisure [again], and went up to the [Mac] shop {again! lol}

We stayed there for quite a while, as me and my friend went around like learning how to use the iMacs by ourselves... As I had iTunes in my Laptop, it was a much easier job for me familiarise myself with the controls... However, it still felt weird as I was not used to the Mac OS.

My friend too had learnt something. He learnt that he could use the internet on Mac OS via Safari. It was quite interesting, as neither of us used the Mac OS.

As all things must come to an end, we soon had to leave the [Mac] Shop, as it was closing time!
[Sigh..]

My friend and I parted ways soon after, as I had to take a bus, while he, took the train home.

Thus here I am, now typing away, at the middle of the night.

Just before I leave, I've been thinking about something...

I've just had this online conversation with this other friend of mine, and I just suddenly thought about the topic of BGR [Boy-Girl Relationships]

Well, the thing is, I never really put much thought into this topic before, as dating was a thing that I never really like concerned myself to anyway. In my opinion, I think that it's just not really appropriate for us to find a "partner", or something like that, while we are still studying.

I'd very much rather devote my time onto studies, or more importantly, spend more time with God.

I feel that at times, I just feel as though I have lost touch with the world or something.. Thus like making me feel sort of alone... I don't know..

Many a times, I may just get bouts of sadness, and feel as tho there are things troubling me, as though my heart is just filled with unanswered questions, and all that.

Perhaps I just have avoided my problems and questions for too long.

Perhaps the best option, and most effective solution to my problems, is this::

That is, to FACE my problems HEAD ON. And also, [more importantly] to PRAY for God's help, in giving me the strength to face whatever obstacles that may lie ahead of me.

May this last sentence that I just said be a reminder and prayer for us all...

Peace Out,
