What should I make...
I've been thinking to myself. What is the one thing that I like most abt myself? Not my looks and packs, not my pathetic sense of humour, not my athleticism, not my singing, acting or writing, but actually my creativity. Only my roomie is able to tell me the answer that I wanted to hear. That's supposed to be the one thing that differentiate me from other ppl. I haven't made many things with my hands, but everytime I make something, it is for someone special to me or for some special occasion. Of the things that I made, 2/3 of them were given away as gifts. Although some of the things look simple, all of them are carefully planned and measured to perfection. All the things that I made are unique and original. I still remember that in army, I taught my frens how to make the 'house' piggy bank. All of them took just 1 day to finish making it. Do u guys know I've actually spent 2 days to plan, and 1 full day to make it on my first try? I hope u guys appreciate my effort. Even though my mum always threaten to throw away the bulky CD rack that I made in secondary sch, she always help me out by supplying me with funny materials like coconut husk, satay sticks, styrofoam, hardboards etc. She knows that I like art and craft. Now when I come to think of it, I feel kinda guilty. I haven't made anything special for my mum yet. Okok, I shall make something special for her as her birthday present. I will. It's been a while since I've made anything. I've actually prepared the stuff in my room alr, but I dunno what to make. Dun really have the time to make anything also as it is the exam period. After the exams, I'm gg to make many things to decorate my room in the new hall. Right now, I need to start thinking of ideas. I've made name key chains, 'house' piggy banks, 'sail' handphone holder, toy helicopter and car, key holders, book stand, baskets, CD rack, cutlery holder, photo frame and toiletries holder... what's next?? Really need to get my hands on the ice cream sticks again as it can really occupy my time, get my mind off other things.
I never knew that I'll share so many similar views with my roomie. he said that I never fail to surprise him. Haha.. he never fail to impress me either. We only knew each other in army, but we ended up becoming gd frens. We were in the same company in BMT, same platoon in SISPEC, same section in ASLC, same shift in SBAB, den now we shared the same room and is in the same course in uni! Perhaps this is what u call fate. I must say I've learn quite a lot of things from him. I learnt to be more gracious, generous, and benefited from his insightful views and extensive knowledge. He is a great guy, but sometimes he is misunderstood. He may be outspoken, but he is definitely not loud and spoilt. Samuel, u have been a wonderful fren and an excellent roommate.
And so I fall into the open, singing out your name. And when I'm done, crashed and maimed, I hope that's where you'll find me... (quoted from the song Got none by Robert Post)
