hey people!
today's Sunday! woke up relatively late today. around 9 plus. then i went to stare at the computer and read about how to draw manga.
then i showered and left for church. wore a simple polo tee for top and jeans for bottom. reached church early and realised i had to go to church alone cause Bryan was having some in-house problems while Matthew was going to church in evening. but i sat beside Emilio's parents. Emilio is a ex-altar server by the way. mass went well, the homily was great. Father Ignatius preached about false prophets and prophets. how to differentiate them and stuff. after mass, while i was leaving, Emilio's mum turned around and told me that, "It's refreshing to hear young teenagers like you sing" i was quite heartened. my church's teens aren't very enthusiastic about church actually. which is kind of sad... even i find myself stuck between the secular world and my Christian faith. sigh~ God! please give us your strength and might! i need to put more faith and trust into the Lord. i am quite proud to be a Catholic.
so after mass was catechism class. somehow i feel that Clarissa's starting to be quite cold to me ... i really don't know what i did wrong this time. but i really hope i was just thinking too much.. did i do something wrong again? i seriously have no idea. but no matter what, i'm sorry for doing anything wrong to you. i just hope it's not another misunderstanding.
Catechism class ends very fast with Uncle David around =P he delivers lessons really well.
after class, i followed Matthew to Northpoint, i had to buy running shorts. so we went to look around and several sport shops. then finally we went to Cold Storage, and he bought drinks back home. his shuttle bus wasn't here yet, so he accompanied me to lunch, we chatted while i was eating. went to send him off, prepared to go home. missed the 812!! so i walked home.
for the next 2 hours, i stoned in front of TV. then i went to do some work. at night we went out for dinner. had so much food! BBQ wings, stingray, cuttlefish, some shellfish and duck! yummy!
and after that mom and i spent some quality time shopping together. we first went to get socks cause my socks were missing! somehow but i seriously don't know how they just vanished. then we went to John Little to get underneaths and then my running shorts!
on the way back, we had a nice long chat. then my mom, yes my MOM asked me what i wanted to try doing. don't know why she suddenly asked but. i replied, falling in love and going on a solo-backpack trip overseas. then she started talking to me about the solo-backpack trip thingie but not the first one! haha, i guess she'll talk about it soon. i want to fall in love, something real, not something generic. someone i could love with all my heart. when she gets hurt, i feel hurt. when she smiles, i would be glad. and i reflected upon that for two hours. and i realised that it might all again be just that. but i hope it's not. should i try harder or should we be just like that. i guess these questions are asked by responsible people. whether they have time for the other half of them. whether they are going to go all out just for them. now that is true love in its purest.
i love you mom, i might not understand your theories sometimes. but you do make me learn a lot from what you do and say. this goes to dad too.
shall stop here for now.
love,
~emma
forget me not.
