昨晚,感觉到风的温和. 究竟是留恋或流恋?
All of last week, I was sitting for the mid year exams, so
called. Before the start of every paper, I always make the
sign of the cross and pray for God's grace and guidance.
Doing so, I felt guilty because I was self-conscious. It wasn't
that way before because being in a mission school all my life
till now, where one was not restricted to express oneself in
faith, no one would give anyone a questioning look. It's so absurd,
I can't wear my cross round my neck which I have been doing so
since I was 11. And even at the start of an exam, when I say a
prayer for comfort and assurance, I get expressions as if they
have seen something extraordinary. Narrow-mindedness?
Or assumptions? Apparently they banned all these because
over the years, there were cases of evangelisation. As quoted
"You don't have to wear anything if you have faith" Who is
anyone to question the depth of this profound understanding?
By that, I emphasise the means of no puns and direction or for
anything, I apologise.
That aside, yesterday I went for HI's musical. It was
kinda fun meeting up ex-classmates and teachers. To
me, it was like some sort of reunion for class of 2007.
Okay, not really. More than half of 4 Humility'07 were
there. We got the first row at the theatre and Jianyong
suggested that we sit on the floor with our backs leaning
against the chair. It was comfortable at first, munching
chips, barefooted and stretching your legs out catching
'Wanted'. After some time, I experienced numbness.
I bet Janice, Guanling and Jianyong did too. Hahaha, I
still remember that randomness at the first few scenes
when Jy and I laughed out loud. Good use for the laser
man!
A pen and paper, was all he was about.
It was pretty senseless to me that night, really.
Didn't they know? Why then, do they keep bringing up the lost?
Then again, it was my lack of humour.
Raising eyebrows, conflicting hearts, contradicting minds,
communing eyes and hands that entwine.
