On the field today, it occurred to me that I am turning into a Weekend warrior. Since I quit the soccer team, the only time I kick a ball is on Sunday. I was huffing and puffing after taking the ball down the line, going pass 2 uncles in their late 30s. That worries me. I should start exercising more during the weekdays.

Ant Madeline from the USA, whom I always cross debating swords with over US foreign policy and George Bush(she's a die-hard Republican) has come to visit.I expect some fireworks.

Riding my bike back home and turning left after the Paya Lebar exit, a random thought came to my mind. I used to regard Shuying as Kaori's best friend, but lately the tag has fallen away and I have come to see her on her own terms, as Shuying. She's really sunny and infectious. I find myself worrying that life and growing up may cause her to lose her idealism and optimism. Some people say it's inevitable, the practicalities of life dictate it.But I hope she never loses her sense of wonder.
