This is the second week I'm not going to church, and I'm definitely feeling guilty. I mean, it's definitely my own fault that I slept very very late on both Saturdays and couldn't wake up in time for church. Not doing quiet time regularly either. This has to change. And I will go to church next Sunday. That's a promise.
It's only the first week and yet, it's already so overwhelming. I feel I'm barely coping with stuff and frankly, I feel like I'm driving myself crazy. Luckily, I've friends here who can cheer me up and help me out, who can brighten my days and make me laugh (really really laugh) when I do need them. Without them, I'm quite sure life here would be miserable. So thanks to you guys (you know who you are).
Highlight of the week: Playing munchkins and bridge till 4am on Friday night/Saturday morning with jessica, xinghao, jiaqi, mingwei and aaron. It was really crazy, but I had a lot of fun. We should do that sometime again next time! And the 4 guys did a lot of Russell Peters spoofs. Oh man it was so so funny; couldn't stop laughing haha.
I guess it's moments like these that I will always remember and cherish. You go to school to gain knowledge and stuff, but you aren't gonna remember what you've studied for long. Once studied, mostly forgotten. But it is times spent with friends, those laughters, jokes, things you did with them or talked to them about - these are the times that you're gonna remember more and cherish them and store them as memories, beautiful memories. And yes, if you ask me 4 years down the road, after I've graduated, what I remember most about my uni life, I'll probably answer the friends I've made and the good times I've had with them. Sure, I may also sing praises about the courses I've taken, the profs, the school campus, etc, but the friends I've made are what I'll remember most. And on this note, I hope that we can remain as friends, as close as we are now, for next year (cos we're not sure yet where we'll be living next year..) and the years after, even after we go our separate ways and lead our own lives after uni.
