today's easter!!

this year's easter has been a lot more meaningful to me, because i've been going to extra church services and charimatic praise & worship sessions, and so this whole lent has been an extension of a period of personal growth and reflection for me. spiritually, i feel that i'm a lot more mature and focused now than i've ever been before. and that, in part, is what's kept me stable and given me strength when everything seems to be going wrong. i guess that probably doesn't sound like much to you, but the past few months have been really rough ones for me, and so this spiritual experience is something that i'm really grateful and thankful for.

on an unrelated note: raj got voted off the apprentice! :( i liked raj! i thought he was the quirky little oddball that added that dash of colour to the eps. trump is a stupid man. everybody likes raj! he shouldn't have fired him. i mean, he could have gotten rid of that bitch ivanna and the whole world would have been happy, but no, he goes and screws raj, who's really the most personable one around and the one everybody likes to listen to. or even jennifer, the two-faced politiking fako with the lips that scream 'botched-job-collagen!' would have been a better choice. why why why! i hope nobody watches his show anymore and he goes bankrupt... because he shouldn't have fired raj!!!

oh, yesterday we finally managed to have a team lunch for debate, which was only possible since kitson is back in singapore for easter holidays. apparently he's taller and bigger, but whatever. it's like most of the world is taller and bigger than me anyway and i've grown a bit immune to it after all these years. anyway we were eating at NYDC and making quite a bit of noise, and we got this really dirty look from the woman sitting opposite us as she got up and left after her meal. i'm sure the guys didn't notice, but me and rui did. perhaps it's some inbuilt bitch radar thing. in any case, it was nice hanging out as a team again, plus, you can always trust food to be the uniting factor. oh and we discovered kitson's appetite is still recognisable- unrepressed and unapologetic. after finishing his own pasta dish, he proceeded to eat rui's salad and pick on other random stuff from everybody else's plate. and then the most horrible part was when he and jon ganged up and tried to prevent me from eating my cheesecake, by constantly repeating how my "belt is looking a bit tight" and other permutations of how evil cheesecake calories are and how they'll add a few million kilos to me or something. for the record, the brownie-infused-cheesecake wasn't all that great yesterday, but i didn't think that the two of them needed any extra feeding, seeing how they'd already had a mudpie and weren't like some poor starving ethiopian kids or something. tsk. how ungentlemanly, don't you think!
