Some thoughts
The week had been a rather busy one. On Saturday, we did a community work with, you wont believe it, SINDA! Haha.... yup yup. Not Mendaki but Sinda. Well, we were assigned to distribute some school stuffs to the needy students. Nevertheless, the response wasnt that terrific and encouraging. Not many people turned up to get their free stuffs. Yes, these stuffs such as shoes, bags and diaries are free-of-charge and yet, these people didnt even bother to turn up! Talk about turning away from people who are most willing to help them out. Anyways, it was really a long, tiring and hot day. Much as I hate to admit, I was actually pretty glad that the community deed was over so that I can meet Mr Idaly. I am not mean, in fact, I dont mind spending my afternoons doing volunteer work. However, I felt quite useless since we spent most of the time sitting around as there werent many people who turned up.
Honestly, it is quite pitiful as SINDA does not have enough volunteers. Hell, they even 'borrowed' some of us to execute certain programs since they do not have sufficient people. How pathetic right? Rather than joining some useless dance competition on the Vasantham Central or taking part in the Miss Vasantham beauty pagent, I think it will be more enriching for the teenagers to concentrate their energies on helping the Indian community at large.
Enough of my dissatisfaction. These past few days have been awfully wet spells. Brrrrr.... so cold! When the weather gets too cold, you just dont feel like doing anything except to snuggle in bed with a good book under the blanket. I went to the library recently to grab some good novels for some blissful indulgence. Got myself some trashy mindless books- it has been ages since I last read such easy stuffs. And some classics by Jane Austen and Charles Dickens so as to feed the brain with great literature works. Im now a contented individual -smiles-
Okay.. I need to get off. Have to attend to some appointments today. Hopefully, the rain will stop. I seriously dont feel like walking around in my sweater with an umbrella, feeling all cold and alone. ΒΆ 1:48 AM
