a Grin from ear to ear

i had actually hoped for this entry to be on friday or at latest saturday, cuz it just goes to show how quickly my opinon can change. My previous post seemed to make me sound a little hollow, a little empty, just not in place, yet in the short span of 2 days i felt like it just turned around and i felt no reason to be empty at all...

Thursday was great, the highlight of the day being Ms Daisy Irani. She was everything i expected an more. "She made it seem so possible" to quote a certain someone. And true enough, she was such a real person. I stood out. It can't be helped, 1) i was the only guy there, 2) i'm not exactly a doormouse when it comes to volume and 3) not when it comes to size either. Even so, i manajed to get a compliment out of her, and she was even nice enough to share with the "class" the number to her casting manager. who knows i may just take her up on her offer :)

then i occupied myself the rest of teh day preparing for open house, getting some council stuff settled, but no great shakes.

Then Friday came, i think that was the climax of the weak. the most exhausting, but the most fun day i had in quite a while. Kicking off the day with inter-CG games. It was like a walk down memory lane... all the games i used to play as a kid, Pepsi-Cola (or as the old timers call it Green Spot), Blind Mice, hopskotch, just to name a few. But moreso, it was not just the games, but the people playing. all 6 guys participted one way or another. Bob completely dominated the board games, while the rest of the guys played in the outdoor games. Joining us were of course our ever lovely ladies, Bernice, Grace and Magdalene. So with such a crew, how could i not have fun! To top it off, it was great that our class won, it kinda gave me a good start to the day!

Then off i went to prepare for the emceeing for Open House. Possibly one of the most tiring emceeing i have ever done (4 full hours!!!) but possibly most rewarding. I can't say much, cuz i don't know how to say it, but it was great fun emceeing with wendy, partially because we were sesame street characters, partially because we are good friends. funny eh, the start of last year we oculd not stand each other, and now at the end of 2 years, i can count on her to emcee with me (even if it was also for her to skip her tennis meeting >.<)

Somehow, when i put it in words, it doesn't sound all so great, but like how an accumulation of little things pile up to a great mountain, the little bubbles of happiness just built up, and i felt good.

Im no longer feeling the hollowness of things, because i have filled them up with holiday projects and people in my life. I can only Grin from ear to ear, and go on with what i have set out to do. =D
