went out with jas ytd to watch changeling. we wanted to watch benjamin buttons but =( no show timings. and teppan yaki! and then went for the law-med debates. lolz so sia suay the debate round was the tiebreaker for the law-med games. and medicine won -.- but still damn impressive la. the flair, the poise, the wit... ahhh. it's what i'm starting to realize - i have a problem with communication =( verbal especially. written is not that bad. but verbal is just. ugh. faintZ.
i said smth last night during bible sharing that kindof persuaded even myself. lolz if i didn't really believe it then how did i say it in the first place i wonder. anyway just wanted to put it here for e record.
i think sometimes, we gotta believe that the things we do are for more than just our own satisfaction. like praying. and worshiping. even tho we don't get the high and certain rituals have lost their meaning and we've become so jaded that it seems like we are simply going through the motions, we still do it anyway. because the things we do are more than just about us.
today morning went to tavistock to play frisbee. with swee, joan, jes, jess, soo, liver and mark. i didn't really wanna go... don't really like frisbee. would have wanted to do more stuff. considering that got so little time already. blog, dota, personal stuffZ and all that. and then there would be the waiting... time wasted. basically more efficient use of my time if i didn't go. but then... sometimes it's not all abt being utilitarian, as my bro would often chastise me. sometimes, we gotta do things because of something more than personal gain. something more than self-fulfillment. even tho sometimes it feels fake, it feels arbitrary, it feels phony... because it's not who you are underneath, but what you do that defines you. in the minds of others. and contrary to popular perception, that identity that lives in the minds of others is as real and as true as the image that we have of ourselves. theatricality. as derogatory a connotation that word might have, theatricality is of undoubted importance.
totally~ the things you learn from batman. laughZ.
but in any case i enjoyed myself la. didn't regret going. it's been so long since i played a physical game with a group. badminton is very... it's like a ballroom dance while these kinds are like a mass line dance. different sort of feel u know? it felt really good to just run around in an open field in barefoot... joyful perspiration. lolz so bathetic. ok la not really. quite a nice image actually. running in the sun in an open field in barefoot and playing frisbee~
