last night while sayin goodnite to me fren online, i said lets pray for a bright good fulfilling day ahead...and we did...but lil did i know that our prayers would be answered in God's own ways..


well the day definitly started out as bright- the sun was blazing its rays unbiasely to everybody who embraced it...

lecture was goood we din hv to listen to d lecturer istead people had to come up and talk bout themselves, and lil did i realise that many of my classmates were goin thru some hard times in life, but they were mostly pretty positive bout it.. its amazing how everybody has a story to tell if u care to listen to them...something which i havent been really good at and this lecture helped me realise even more that we really cant judge the book from its cover.

after class i was visualising myself on reaching home and taking a nice long nap, Yas dropped me off near d ktm station and as i was crossing the bridge under the blazing scorching sun, i saw an old lady in front of me carrying bags of grocery shopping... my heart went out to her, i walked next to her hoping she woulnt mistake me for someone trying to hurt her, and offered to take some of her bags... i could sense it was a start of a great conversation!
i spoke in chinese with her most of the time and we talked from hiked-up prices of things, to our families, and her giving me advice on choosing a partner in life.
she was such a charatcer! her front teeth were gone, though she was old and had some injuries, she still travelled from Shah Alam to Seri Setia just to do marketting and going to diff places to get the best groceries... says a lot bout her love to her family! she was such a sweet lady.. bought me a bottle of water and even gave me ang pau! totally unexpected!
it has been such a long time since i spoke so much mandarin in that short span of time... so need to do some brushing up.. but im glad we could connect :) a truely fulfilling day indeed!
