today's been one delightfully random day!

went to the gym and felt like running which i haven't done in a long time coz of some weird pain i've been feeling in my heel. so i got back on the treadmill today and just ran and ran. felt really good.

then i turned on my laptop to charge the bro's ipod and had this string of emails abt my poverty proj meeting...and had to keep negotiating for time changes coz of all tt's going on in church this wkend...and i began to compromise on my sabbath commitment without quite being aware of it and God reminded abt tt during qt today when i read Exodus 16 (think that was the first time the sabbath was mentioned?) and so i prayed and asked God to work smt else out since i cldn't meet my grp on fri nite...and He did! so tt was cool. (actually i nearly double booked myself for sun too but thankfully He worked tt out too!)

and then while checking my email, i got a msg on friendster frm a primary school friend! and he said he had been looking for me for a really long time and asked if i remembered him. coz apparently he said i was the girl who grilled him about what Abraham's name was before God changed his name and asked him all sorts of questions from the Bible after he proudly told me he had one. haha i totally forgot about that. never knew i was so weird! and so we get in touch and start chatting online and realize that after a decade of not seeing each other, he's come to Christ, gotten really involved in church, has his calling in youth min, and is leading cg! and he says he has always remembered me as the girl who'd ask him about the Bible and who told him my name's in the Bible. and guess what? he's no longer called wei jie...he's now gideon! hahaha i think it's hilarious.

and then of course, walk into dr ngiam's office again w/o appointment and find him busy but as he always, he says "no no don't worry, there's always time for you two (mils and i)" heh so discussed some new ideas and i've found a new way to shape my thesis that allows me to cut down on the number of interviewees i need so i'm realllly thankful for that!

oh and bumped into aunty yee pin in the lib before that and she asked how research was coming along and all and she offered to link me up with the MSW head of KKH. heh cool stuff.

and then had family dinner which we havent had in a looong while and heard the funniest things from my parents. most of it shdn't/can't be repeated here unfortunately. heh

sigh...so it's been a good day. spent most of the time running round in the lib...finding more journal articles, going thru theses, printing a ton of notes, bumping into pple....jan, amu, aunty yee pin, candice....i like randomness. like tellerman. haha ok work work. it's 10pm already?!?!?!
