Today I managed to reach home by 9pm. It's an achievement for me. Hahaha. I finally met the owner of the house where I stayed in. Me, Ci Yaya, Frank, and the landlady's son played Xbox - bowling together. Very fun! Hahaha.
I told Dennyz that my plan was to do my laundry, mop the floor, post on the blog, and continue reading the book on Temple Grandin. At the end, I only fulfilled number 1 and 3. Hahaha. Ohhh.. but I managed to wipe my climbing shoes. Hehehe.
There's a difference between arriving at home late + sleeping late and arriving at home early + sleeping late. I think arriving home late really absorbed my energy. I'm still happy staying here and I do think that commuting in Singapore is comfortable, so even though I do feel tired of arriving at home quite late, I do not regret it.
I feel that God has put me in this place for a certain reason. I learned a lot from Ci Yaya, my current roommate. One thing that struck me from our conversation last week was her conviction to be housewife, to sacrifice and serve the family. I can imagine some people might be skeptical. She studied language in Germany for one year and she graduated with an architecture degree in Indonesia. However, she already decided that she'll be housewife because in Germany, if she still insists to work, who will take care of her children? I really admire her for this. I think she's very brave.
As time goes by, I start asking myself, "Where am I now?" Perhaps the exact question is, "Where am I going?" Remember I told you that I'm thinking of taking up classes to 'keep my brain working'? Sometimes I think I'm just craving for 'doing-something'. Hmmphh! Anyway, I shouldn't rush. It's good to learn something new with the right intention, but I won't let myself do something for the sake of 'just having something to do'.
