Well, when you stop to think about it, life is good. Or, if you're the other kind of person, when you stop thinking about it, life is good. Of course, it helps if you're in my situation. I've been prodded to write some more mundane, daily life sort of posts. So here's a quick rundown of the highs and lows that have stuck in my brain during the past week or so, just as a kind of snapshot of a typical week I suppose.
Highlights
-I wore pants...AND it wasn't raining when I did. weird.
-realizing (for the not the first time in my life) that friends come from the most unusual sources
-the look on my students face as she proudly told me her english test score
-finding the time to finish a good computer game (Mass Effect)
-while playing said game, remembering why, in my opinion, video games are such a powerful and potent medium
-seeing how far my balance has come
-eating cheap, delicious food (have I ever mentioned that before?)
-the hilarity of Josh and Cat trying to awkwardly flirt with each other in 2/3 English, 1/3 Chinese
-getting my ass kicked (every Saturday) by someone who has some gray hairs
-after getting ass kicked, a relaxing lunch of shui jiao while discussing the intricacies of women
-having lessons cancelled
-finding the time to finally finish a song that had been in my 'To-Finish' queue for too long and being happy with the outcome
-making decisions regarding the future a bit more concrete
-eating cheap, delicious food
-experiencing the energy of another Go Chic show
-a plethora of good games coming out this week
Unfortunately, it's not always sunshine and sugar plums.
The Lows
-no one wanting to sit next me on the MRT (next to that weird foreigner?? last resort only)
-waking up in the morning because I was dreaming that the waffles were ready (just plain cruel)
-trying to remember what hugs are
-having lessons cancelled ( -$$)
-listening to previously-mentioned song the next day on the MRT and realizing that it's pretty awful
-having to make another new hole in my belt (why are things bigger now...)
-realizing my time here is coming to a close
-wanting to make an employee's day a little bit brighter but lacking the communication skills to do so
-a plethora of good games coming out, thus threatening my wallet into further depression
Well, those are the ones that I've managed to skim off the top of my brain.
Till next time...endure, enhance, enjoy.
A trash heap of updates, ramblings, and general nonsense on the projects of Pengy Poo Productions and the life of Scott
Thanks, Buddy, I know you posted that for me. I enjoyed it. Did you need to make that belt bigger or smaller? Can't imagine you're gaining weight there, except for the pure muscle variety.
