HAPPY SUNDAY!

Well, I wrote about my morning, but today is definitely one of the happiest day of my life!!

I have no idea why. I woke up today with nature in my mind, I walked with nature, then spent my whole evening with nature. The following are the details:

So, after spending the whole afternoon reading the Sunday newspaper (and enjoying my chicken biryani lunch), my housemate Esther came out of her room and sat beside me. She prepared to do some reading for her assignment, while I got up and looked out from the balcony. I took a deep breath of fresh after-rain air. Oooh, it felt SO good. Suddenly I exclaimed loudly, "I'm so happy!"

"Wei, you saw your boyfriend izzit??" asked a surprised Esther
"Ha-ha, no la, I just feel so happy!" I answered.
"Why leh?" she asked.
"Dunno... I guess it doesn't take much for me to feel happy," I said with much content.

Well, it is true, really. Some people need material gifts to be happy, some people link success to happiness. Me? I just stare at trees on a beautiful day and feel so happy. (No, I'm not a Martian. A normal Earthling, if you please.) The weather today was just right, the sun was bright but cool, the air was fresh, the skies were blue, the clouds were white, the trees were green(lots and lots of trees...whee!) and the highway was quiet.

Esther joined me. We both looked out to the vast greenery that laid before us, our eyes gleefully lapping up the unending beauty of God's work of art. We had a fun chat too, over a cup off coffee. Its bitterness(I have a dislike for coffee) was somewhat sweetened by my sugary feelings (Okay, so now I am beginning to doubt my origins... Mars isn't that bad, is it?)

"I want to settle down in America," Esther said, somewhere in the middle of the conversation.
"Hey, I want to settle down in Canada! You come to Canada also la!"
"Ha-ha! Ya lo, ya lo! 20 years later then I call you to come for yam cha! Then we discuss lo, my children so big, your children also so big oredi, all go to university oredi."
"Ya, ya! then we also sit in the balcony!"
"Ha-ha! then discuss about 20 years ago, how we sit in the balcony and chit chat chit chat! Wow, so nice la!"

Wow, it would. Indeed, it would. We talked alot more, and then some. Gosh, what a beautiful day [its a beautiful day~~~by U2. good song]

Now I'm writing this blog with the beetles songs playing in the background. (~~oh bla-di, oh bla-da, life goes on oh! la-la-la-la life goes on~~)

PERFECT.

Right, my assignment is due Tuesday... Gosh, the smell of Cintan noodles is so good... perhaps I'll boil some...

Hmmm Mars...
