time slows.




...and suddenly the world slows down.








every sunday night i would unfailingly ask my mom whether i could skip school the next day.
her answer is always no and yet i keep asking.

you ask me how i felt about today and i would say all of this:
A BIG HO HUM.
as dull as dishwater,
as flat as pancakes
and basically dreary in comparison to the great and hectic weekend that i had.

keep reminding myself i must remain 'uplifting'.
lOls.
so far i guess it has worked a wheeny bitty bit.

yesterday's tribe meeting was filled with boisterous cheering and merry making.
it was good to see everyone once more.
we played several field games,1 and 1/4 of which i took part in.
why 1/4..?
cause my team never manage to pass the ball far enough to me and for that game i just stood there with the wind blowing about me and laughing at narash silly antics.
ALTHOUGH we came in last (yah,even with me in it..lol),i had lots of fun and was laughing for most of the time.
particularly uplifting moment was when i watched 10 people tried walking simultaneously together(in my group's case,the guys did more TO-ing and hopping than walking) to the finish line.
they all so looked so hilarious-in a good way.

the end soon came...

the winning team slunged their hands over each other shoulders and kicked their legs out while humming a song(forgotten which is it) and we hummed along with them.

it was one of those moments i would not forget.
everything seemed OKAY at that moment.
i felt like my life could be sorted out and that God would give me a new beginning.
to feel OKAY is all that i ask for.
to be able to laugh like that again,seemingly without worries.
that's what i'd strive for.
