today was a pretty cool day (since when have i degraded to inane posts of my daily activities? never mind). the highlight was volunteering to be part of the magic show put up by my senior pastor and making a fool out of myself in front of a few thousand people in the suntec convention hall. but it was good fun and he even gave me a bent metal spoon as a souvenir (the spoon was part of a magic trick). really thrilling cos it's like johnny depp giving me his coffee cup or something. i felt like a starry-eyed groupie.

and oh, got a new bag. shopping whore i am. hoho

after watching the last episode of the jap ER drama, i realise that my previous post was totally idiotic. what happened to my brains when i was typing it? you see, the last episode was about two-thirds of the ER staff falling sick with gastroenteritis, leaving a few doctors and nurses to man the place, which was packed with victims of a devastating earthquake in tokyo. each of them had to work 22 hour shifts and yet they pushed on relentlessly without giving up hope... blah blah you know the works. as cliche as it sounds, it didn't fail to inspire me yet again to be more dedicated towards my future career. like, be more self-sacrificing and treasure this opportunity to serve others in need.

o wells, shopping isn't everything right. as long as i shop once a year in bangkok is enough. the rest of the year i'll just work my ass off eh. work so much can lose weight also.

they should show more of such dramas on sunday nights. then people can watch and be inspired, and be ready to face the new week ahead. now they're gonna show i've got a date with a vampire and i've no idea how that can possibly inspire anyone. bah
