Long Weekend

Yay! It's almost the long weekend =) I don't think I've had a day off work (apart from weekends of course) since Queen's Birthday and a day or so when I got sick. Am really looking forward to December when I'll have a couple of weeks off!

Unfortunately I won't have enough of a break to really relax AND clear up a big chunk of my "to do" list... not really sure why or how I'm seemingly so busy... possibly because I lack discipline and do a lot of unplanned things...

Well, lately work has been quite busy (yes, that word again), which has been a blessing in a way... it has helped me to focus more, and be more productive... and the days have passed quicker. For those that don't know... I have been struggling to be faithful in my work, lacking motivation to do what I view as a very boring job. It's not what I'd view as ideal, but I'm thankful that God has helped me get through a lot of the frustration I was feeling with my life in general. I've even been surprisingly joyful the last few weeks.

Last Saturday I was a backup singer for the first time, during our youth group session. It was a lot of fun, and a joy to practice and sing with a few others. Through this, and the church choir, I've been able to get a taste of the camaraderie musicians experience playing together. It would be nice to be able to play a musical instrument, but I certainly am not able to commit as much time as is required to learn.

Son has hit 70kg!!! hahaha... never thought it would happen. In uni I fluctuated between 59 and 63kg. I went up a few kg when I started working full-time, and the last few months have picked up a few more. About 75kg would be about right I think. The only problem is that part of my weight is probably due to unhealthiness. When/if I ever get into shape, I wonder if I will lose some of my weight? hehe... my mum has spent so many years telling me that I need to gain weight... and when I told her that I'm 69kg (several weeks ago I think) she warned me not to gain too much!

Well, time to pack. I'm making a trip to Sydney with some Canberran friends for the first time (normally visit Sydney to meet up with friends). Will be good to have company the entire time.

Take care, and I hope you have a restful and enjoyable long weekend (if you live somewhere celebrating Labour Day that is).

gained weight eh?
last i remember you were about twice my height! i was 75kg about 4 months ago too. but for me, that was really bad. i know how you feel about your mum asking you to gain weight and then telling you not to gain too much. my mum kept telling me i was fat, and then at dinner time (yes i still have dinner at home), she tells me to finish everything that's on the table (that's with the chinese way of eating where everyone's food is on the table, and we usually only eat half of it!).
you shouldn't look too bad at 75kg should you?

haha, I meant that I WANT to be 75kg... but only a fit 75kg... no use being heavier and unfit.
