4th of feb is sucha happy day..
started out last night when jane cldnt sleep. went out with her to ralph to get some sleeping pills and after that we started goofing around.. hahah in the middle of the night in ralphs... haha...
we didnt feel like gg back home (despite my class which starts at 8am)... started driving around santa monica area to look for homeless people. Eversince Ive started my internship with LA homeless services coalition, i've been so inspired to initiate giving. cause I realise that what I give will enrich my life and comes back to me many times over. so anw, where was I? ok.. so we both started pointing out at people wanderng around (it was alr abt 2am) cause we wanted to find homeless people and drop them some food....
thn we saw this homeless guy sleeping outside seven-eleven. he was covered with his filthy jacket and lied there motionless.. so, we decided to make him our first lucky friend. but we got scared somehow... and jane didnt dare to get off the car to drp him the food. I ended up doing all the food dropping. I places the bag of food next to him and realized it was probably too far frm him and afraid that someone else might take those food away. so i went back and put the bag closer to him... who knows! the BAGUETTE frm the bag dropped out and hit his head!!!! THE MOMENT HE WOKE UP, JANE SCREAMT... I RAN OFFFFFF!!
he was so hungry he didnt bother abt me (thank god!) he just opended the bag and started devouring those food.ahhhh.... what a sight..
then we both continued with the drive.. and there was this bridge that has about 5 to 6 homeless there. ALL SO SCARYYY.. we didnt dare to drop them food.. anw, went back home and off to bed at around 4 in the morning. was supposed to wake up at 7 to go to school.. and guess whattt...
LATE! ahahaha nt exactly late. but when the alarm sounded at 7am, i thought to myself that it was a saturday and that there wasnt any need for me to wake up that early. so i reset my alarm at 7.30 and went back to bed. GOD must be playing w me.. when i woke up at 7.30, I realized tht i was gonna be late for school! jam starts to get really bad frm 7.20 and I normally leave home at 7.15 in order to reach class on time. I woke up at 7.30.. imagine how fast i get out of the house.
and I rannnnn all the way to class the moment i parked my car. no stamina.. haha stopped a couple of times on the way to class.. but I managed to reach class just nice at 8 on the dot.
class ended at 12 and I had to rush off for my internship at 1. Internship is not fun anymore.. Its suchaa relazing environment but then I have to do countless research.. Im so tireddd... then again, doing all these give me a great sense of satisfaction. I wasso scared of screwing the whole project. but as soon as I was done, my supervisor kept praising me. HAHAH! even the guy whom I sent out the project to, told me that I did a great job! nothing beats that... getting praised for the hard work that i've done....
so anw, after internship ends, send jane off to airport and had dinner with ferry and silvi and of course with jane herself....
the things that I have done in these 24hrs time period, makes me feel so human again. by that I mean, I feel so glad I havent lose myself despite all the temptations I've had in life.
enough of tht... its gonna be chinese new year soon! my tuition teacher in spore was so sweet. she queued for 2 hours to buy me some bah kwa only to realise that the US custom are not allowing those bak kwa to enter US... the thought itself is more than enough. thank you!!!
