Zouking

Life is about simple pleasures.

Sitting at the desk, peering through the window secretly admiring the rain, sipping sweet tea and reminising these all too familiar feeling of freedom. Exams, projects and school work all behind me now. Nothing is more important right now than to indulge in my life's most prize possessions - simple pleasures. I thank God for them.

This exact moment is all too good to be true. The chilling breeze caressing my bare skin, the warm feeling in my stomach from the hot tea, the smell of the mixture of rain and soil, sitting at the computer hitting off the keyboard, the freedom I enjoy within. I wouldn't want to exchange it to be anywhere in the world. Not even Aussie. Not really anyway. You know what I mean...

After being through these past few tormenting weeks of studying and being trapped at home, this new-found freedom is really a bonus for me before I begin my routine of work-eat-sleep. Work is starting next wednesday. So technically speaking, I have (counting) 6 days before that. Hooray!

Yesterday unOfficially marks to end of my studying life in poly. Therefore me and the rest of them can't wait to put on our dancing shoes and go Zouking! (me, crystal, yilin, YQ, cassandra, her bf; joe, mais, avril, gary, phyllis) Man, that is THE club. Or rather mambo night. Really suspected that I was born in the wrong era. How can anyone miss out growing up in the mid 60s&70's? The music, fashion, cultural and beliefs are all overwhelmingly rich. I would love to be part of all that culture revolution! And stepping into Zouk last night was like a blast to the past. The music, the hand signal movement/dance, spotting a pseudo Elvis Presley (yeah we really saw him with the exaggerated hairdo) is so rich for me. Soaking into the atmosphere. Maisie and Avril was semi-drunk and saying silly things, swaying from side to side. Haha.. its a classic man! A pity that yilin and crystal gotta run but promise to post up some pictures of yesterday when I got it.

So for today, enjoy the weather, stop and smell the roses. It might just lift the gloomy spirit within you!

Today is the day that the Lord has made, so let us be glad and rejoice with it.
