Went for tennis practice with CH's team this morning. Won the 1st set easily partnering Xiao Lu. However, midway through the 2nd set, I felt very weak and couldn't concentrate. Not sure what it is but after the game, was walking out from the court when I felt nauseous. When I reached home, felt weak and just want to sleep. However, sleep did not happen as my eyes won't shut. So, back to the computer to do some work and then went to cook kiam chye thng and fried chicken for lunch. Had lunch watching an episode of Desperate Housewives. The plot's getting more and more interesting.
Went to fetch Sam from school and then she said she doesn't want to go for bowling lessons coz her arm muscles are still hurting due to her swimming at PE. So, she called Ty to cancel. I was more than happy to stay home coz I was so tired, I just want to sleep. Ed is saying that the feeling of lethargy I am experiencing is just the body's way of shutting down the "system" as I have overworked it. I think he has a point. So, I am going to go to bed early tonight so that I get enough rest for my match at 12.30pm tomorrow. Hope I can play my best.
Just want to share with you Sam's poem that got published:
WHEN YOU LEARN
When you learn that Death is waiting around every corner
Waiting to embrace life with his bony fingers;
When you learn that Love is the only thing
That hurts and heals at the same time;
When you learn that Life is unfair
And that it'll trip you up every chance it gets;
When you learn that sometimes friends aren't friends
And that it's wise to keep your enemies close;
When you learn that sometimes you have to hurt loved ones
Just for them to become better people;
When you learn that you can't save everyone
And that Life forces Change whether you like it or not;
When you learn that Faith takes you a long way in life
And that Trust joins it hand in hand;
When you learn that you have to pick yourself up
Especially when you've fallen from a great height
When you learn that you need your family and friends
And you learn that you need God to be in control;
When you, like me, learn that you're still learning
Then you, my dear brother, are on your way to growing up.
Isn't it just beautiful? I love it so much.....

Hi Vivien. Would love to have that nasi lemak now. Can't tell you how much I've missed Malaysian food. Sometimes I do hallucinate about koay kak or hokkien mee which are 2 of my favorite hawker's food. But, can only lau nuah in the end, hahaha.
Thanks for following our blog posts. I just write whatever comes to mind and that is good coz it helps keep in touch with all our friends and families. Sam's really improved in her bowling. Yr dad will be so proud of her as she has won many scholarship awards. Her average has shot up to about 210 now and on bad days, it hovers around high 180's to 190's. I hope she will continue in her good form and do keep in touch. If you need to contact us, write me at edchrisam@gmail.com. Till then, love to your mom and say hi to your dad for me won't you? Take care ok... Missed you all too.
