had morn yoga cls today. overslept n was in a horrid rush. oso had a bad bad breakfast - cold ham n egg pie. ewww.. chiller section somemore. thank god i got no stomach ache. no time to pre-heat ma. but the sweetest thing happened tt really made my day.
the beggar. ok, i shall not call him tt coz he playes the
pipa while basking for money. he was so nice to me. ever since i found out tt bri donates $1 everytime he walks past tt guy, me n trix decided to follow suit. i mean, a pri 5 boy can show human compassion for tt old man even though his pkt money is practically non-existant, i'm sure we can afford to be equally if not more generous.
so everyday when i go for cls, i'll drop money into his small box. tis is the only "beggar" (i'm sorry but i dunno wats the correct wrd to use.) i hv ever seen who smiles n thanks u profusely for such a simple act. anyway, today i discovered to my utmost horror, i had run out of coins. when i walked past, he called out a cheery "hello". i guess he recognised me by now.
me: (sheepishly) sorry uncle, today i got no coins.
him: huh. no, i'm not asking u for money. i juz wanted to wish u pleasant n safe day.
me: oh. thank you. i'll donate tmr. i promise.
him: no, its really ok if u dun hv money. do u hv money for lunch? i can give u. (reaching into his box.)
of course, i didn't take his money. but he was so nice. i bet he dun make much a day. but he can still be so thoughtful n sincere in wanting to help others. sometimes, i really ought to be ashamed of my selfish behavior.
anyway, had 2 classes today. 2nd one wif mommy. while waiting for mommy to come, i sat at the lounge n eavesdropped on an
i-weekly interview. they were at
true yoga interviewing members on yoga in general. there were so many cameras n flashlights. but so sucky. no one asked me. there goes my 15-sec of fame. =(
aft tt alisa called to say she forgot to bring hse keys n she got club team training at ssc n she nv bring tennis racket. so i couldn't hv a leisurely lunch but instead, hafta rush all the way hm frm raffles place to open tt damn door for her. last time, rush back frm mj during lunch to open door for trix. now, hist repeats itself. haiz. am i the only one who always bring keys????
cooked dinner which they all said was not bad leh. hehe. but i had to wash up too. tts so unfair. i can't wait to start sch then i dun hafta do so much wrk... oops. selfish thinking again. *guilt-ridden*
tt time of the mth is here. no yoga for the nxt few days. i feel fat. i am fat. =(
