8 Ways to Lighten Your Schoolbag

1. Throw all your schoolbooks out.
2. Get an inaccurate weight measuring scale.
3. Get rollers on your bag.
4. Put in magazines you read (it feels lighter)
5. cut off one strap and carry it like a sling bag.
6. Bring a pillow instead.
7. Ask someone to carry it for you.
8. Throw away your schoolbag, carry a girl you like punya schoolbag, it is wayyyyy lighter than you come to expect.

Went to this play last Friday, about the education system and how most of it seems to be in conflict with some of the things we are trying to achieve as a nation. It is a good perspective (a humorous one) and angle the director took to let us view what our schools are sometimes doing to our kids and of course it interacts with whatever goes on at home too, how our conservative thinking sometimes gets in the way of progress.

All in all, i thought it was a good solid play, interesting direction, interesting setup, interesting positions of actors and actresses alike and accurate timing for puns and one liners.

It was very enjoyable, this is nothing like After Our's, but too bad today was the last day, glad i caught it. I guess living here in this coutnry with so many races just ain't easy. What with all the differences, and how generations of prejudice and biasness seeps through our minds unknowingly. (For alternative reviews, see Tien Ming's Blog entry.)

But as today's sermon puts it, we are all made in the image of God, and we were knitted in our mother's womb by the Almighty Creator, and His ways are perfect, so everyone do have a purpose, everyone has something to be appreciated of, and many a times our differences are the ones that make us complete one way or another, compliment us and supplement us.

I feel today's sermon was good and tied in with many happenings this week.

Speaking of today's sermon, it was super fun and interesting, this elderly couple shared the sermon, and gave it together, somewhat they just seem to connect so well, with many jokes and things that just seems funny yet true. They talked about marriage, and how initial attractions becomes an irritation when you marry, and how to convert those irritations into something that complements you and supplements you. Very very interesting, i wouldn't know or experience any of it, but at least it was something fun to listen to.


Yesterday was also Shannon's 21st birthday celebration, though his birthday comes later in the week. Party was awesome no thanks to party planner.

Ok kididng, party planner is cool, don't kill me please.

Had to ffk Asian Beacon dinner, but totally worth it, haven't had fun in a party for quite awhile now!

It's great to meet people who influenced your life or was part of it, great to catch up with peeps who were MIA in my life hohoho.

And not to mention eye candies, and food!!

All in all, it was a good party, with plenty of chats and meet ups and food, and games of Mafia, which i totally got killed every 2nd or 3rd rounds.

Interesting to know that most people's lives just going into a different direction than yours, but when you were clad in high school uniforms, everyone just seem the same, guess we all are growing up one way or another, and i am glad we all are different. =)

Happy Birthday Shannon!! Glad to have known you, brother.

Many more to come!
