Creative Thinking and some moments.
I didn't take this class under prof K.S., but I think he has that impression. Jia lat... (i.e. oh no...)
Anyway, right now I am in the middle of Week 14 class watching the presentations. I should be concentrating, but some of the projects after the first two were quite dull. And there are about 8 to 10 of them to go through, with no break in sight. Sigh.
One of the freshmen resembles this guy I've been trying to scratch off my list. Different surnames, but the resemblance is uncanny. I dare not ask, lest he actually knows the guy and he rats on me, hence throwing off every single effort I've made to avoid him altogether.
But so far so good. I am trying to get my slides for my afternoon presentation to work. I forgot to bring my tea candles again, and I took the chance to try on the pair of white pants my friend had lent me to wear for the presentation. Chances.
So ok, last Thursday was the live recording of the Christmas program the church was doing with the TV network, that will be airing on Christmas Eve, Channel 5 at 8pm. I think it's well done. The problem is I came out feeling really empty about the whole thing, while everyone else was just really happy all around. The work was good, because I've learnt some things that goes on in the process of filming for a recorded show. But honestly, in retrospect, I don't think I would've missed much if I wasn't in it. I feel like I've given so much of myself to it, but there's not really much of "happy" to speak of. I don't know if I'll be watching the thing itself on TV. I've never been a fan of these programmes anyway.
Still feeling very empty from the whole thing. Maybe a little bitter. I haven't been able to share the "moment" with anyone, really. My parents aren't into that sort of thing, so obviously they're not it. Everyone else is in their own cliques, so that's not it either. There's no genuine joy to speak of.
Makes me wonder what's the whole point of it all.
