today is a goodie day. i bought my official 1st MP3 player (the old one lasted for a mth before going k-a-poot) and yay yay no more noisy lonely bus rides to school n everywhere else. i really do Live on buses - the amt of time i spend on that vehicle is outrageous. at least now i can download hillsong-ish and planetshaker-ish (code words code words, h-o-m-e alert) songs.

i know His hand is on my life - cos slow-poke is not that slow anymore and the emotional n the cerebral agree with each other and like lydia, i say 'rebuke the demons!' .

Galatians 6:9 says that we should not be weary in doing good. and it is 'better to give than to receive'. i stand on that, i will not count losses nor gains.

On a Conversation in the School Lift on the way to class

Girl A and Boy A happens to be in the lift with me. As the door closes, they happen to see a friend (specifically Boy A's friend- who happens to be a girl)

Girl: eh, your friend' s very pretty you know.
Boy: [shifting his glance, looking uncomfortable,trying to dismiss the subject] ...erhh...ya...
Girl: then why didnt you go for her? she's not bad-looking what, very pretty somemore!
Boy: [perhaps encouraged by her seemingly enthusiastic reception of his friend] ...eh, ya, now then i realize..how come i didnt go for her? i know she's not that bad. very pretty also.

at this point, i think i felt an icy silence rebounding off the walls of the lift. the alarm started ringing - not that of the lift's but the one in my head - Hell hath no fury like a Woman scorned (pardon the hell-ish expression). and yes, she glared at him. at this point, i knew they were more than just friends but not in a relationship,yet.

Girl: yah, so why you never go for her? you know her before me what, longer somemore.

at this point, when a woman asks a question twice over, trouble's brewin'.

Boy: [trying level best to salvage situation]... i know...but i don't go after so many at once.

at this point of time, he's trying to placate her and im trying to steer away from them. it's amusing, yet painful at the same time. such foolishness, such greed. i hope ill never be in her situation nor come across people who treat women like desserts to be tried and tasted [tested].
