Sunday. I don’t go to Church.
January 21st, 2007 -- Posted in deep | 4 Comments »... because I never do, and because I’m a buddhist.
But I’m waking up as early as 9am (not that early but earlier than workdays). Figured that I want to enjoy a morning of a nice cup of coffee and some sun (while it’s available) by the balcony.
Am I wasting time doing this? In the ‘uber-modern’ standard of Singapore lifestyle, I might be wasting precious time since I work 5 days a week, 14 hours a day. I should be doing something like getting my driving license and cleaning up the house… or something more ‘constructive’.
Not in my standard. While I’m in my early 30’s, before the kids come along, this is my idea of ‘constructive sunday morning’ when I do a bit of documenting of thoughts onto a blog.
During the days when I haven’t been catching up on blogging, I figured that there are so much thoughts in my head that I get so disorganized and hard to hear myself think clear enough without deleting a while chunk after I’m done. There are also days when I just have no thought I can put into words.
Perhaps I should just try to narrate?..
Sunsun and I went to a TCM doc yesterday for an alternative opinion. Not so traditional, but the doc is a certified physician and acupuncturist. Sunsun got some chinese medicine and an instruction to monitor her vitals to understand her hormones. I got myself a 20-minutes acupuncture session and some cordyceps-based supplement to help improve motility.
Spent the next few hours doing some shopping in Orchard Road. The vehicle and human traffic was horrendous. Thought it was because of the rain, but funny that there are more people shopping during rainy days.
After (some long boring hours of) shopping, we headed over to dad’s house to view a few paintings that Becky’s gallery friend has left for us to see. Nice paintings but our top choice seemed to be too large even for the large living room. I guess we’d need a big gallery-style house to enjoy such a masterpiece.
And that was that for a Saturday. Many things done but I don’t feel I’ve accomplished anything. Nothing unusual, actually.
Anyway, I’m looking forward for catching up with old friends and a sibbling who are back in town for the coming CNY.
