My last thursday post was on 27 december, during block leave. it's been 2 months and a bit since then, but it feels way longer.
anyway, like i mentioned before, i'm home today because i have to go to east coast park early tomorrow morning for some soccer thing. i guess that it's no secret that i'm not particularly fond of soccer. so...i suppose i'll be rotting around somewhere while the rest are playing. maybe i can use that time to meditate and reflect.
on the way home from camp just now, my dad was telling me a story about property prices, profitability and such. long story short, he wants to sell the house i'm living in now while the market's good. then, when the market cools down a few years later, he's going to use the same amount of money to buy a condo, or another HDB flat (which will leave us with some excess money). it sounds like a good plan theoretically, and i do trust my dad's judgement. but somehow, a part of me is uncomfortable with the idea. it's probably because i've grown up here, and believe it or not, i've never moved house before. resistance to change i guess. but seriously, i like where i'm living. it's close to my friends (those that matter, anyway), and travelling to almost anywhere is really convenient. oh well. we'll have to see how this unfolds.
i've been waking up at ungodly hours these past few days in camp. things like 2:30am, 3:15am, and 4:35am. luckily, i can fall asleep again easily after that, though it's pretty pointless since my alarm wakes me up at 5:20. while on a sleep-related issue, i've also been having some funny dreams, like one involving someone and the number 08-188 (or something like that; memory's fuzzy). odd stuff. maybe it'll make sense someday.
tomorrow looks kind of busy! east coast in the morning, some personal stuff in the afternoon, meeting an old friend for dinner, and maybe helping another friend to move house in the night. i'll probably update again when it's all over.
