a little Xtra

Can't believe the hols have passed. GROAN. so many things i wanted to do, so little i have accomplished. But nonetheless, it was a good break. Was in teh temple the whole day today. Morning till evening.. normally, i'll be itching to go back home at about 3pm coz my work beckons.. but these days, there's smth that's keeping me there ...

Yeah.. you've guessed it.. it's music.

GOod cause and conditions have allowed me to find pple with similar interest at teh temple. Today we were practising for Buddha day. SO COOL!!!! Damn we sound good. ok. mebbe i'm biased. But i feel really honoured to be able to lias with all these ppl. My gosh. Flute, guitar, keyboard, music students.. fantasic vocalists.. composers.. you name it, we have it. But above all, it's the music and our love for the Dharma that really binds us together. Even little Chantel was there :)

So funny, SQ and I were screaming.. " JEFFERY> WO MEN YONG YUAN ZI CHI NI!!!" ( in falsettos) but seriously, Jeff did a very convincing pop star rendition of the Stars and CLouds.. haha.. oh no.. hopefully we won't frighten him away.. we soooo need him.


Watched a documentary on Master Xing Yun. Awesome fella. In such a short time, he helped spread Buddhism so widely!!! Well.. documentary was punctuated by loud balloon pops from the balloon team.. :) they 're getting pretty good! i also wanna learn, but i suck at this kinda thing.. sadly. so i'm stikcing to sand bottle making :) mebbe i should try candy floss making. BUt the thot of walking around covered in pink candy floss from a mishap doesn't sound appealing.

don't wanna go back to school. sigh. want .. more .. holidays.
