What would be a sanguine week ahead was utterly vanquished by the unmistakable beep on my handphone, from Beverly. OH, she is a pretty ordinary Chinese girl who speaks with an unavoidable Malayan accent and looks like an innocent little lamb. But as with snow-white little lambs, they like to slack all day and go babaaa black sheep. Did i mention she was one? (didnt mean to)
I was to contact Miss Sim(a quintessential geography teacher) as soon as possible. Now, i would like to pause as i recount my first experience of encountering the uncouth, boorish, ungenteel, elegant Miss Sim, whose Doppelgänger would invariably feel the same way. If they should meet, it would be a real uncanny sight, i ascertain.(probably cant recognise each other, too snobbish i guess) Oops,forgive me for the sidetrack, let me continue with the thouroughfare of events that took place.
The conversation was far from pleasant(overtly pleasant, with exchanges of pleasantry). Yet being mild mannered and courteous as I am, i readily acceded her request of taking charge of a green' booth in Suntec City. [Ahh, here goes my daily rest and peace...] With the culmination of Project Work, life should be a breeze, but always something unexpected has to crop up. I must comment it was through gritted teeth that i accepted her offer, and of course i could sense the exasperation in her voice that as a gentleman i simply cannot leave her to canker much like a damsel in distress.
More details of the booth will be showcased on later dates, meanwhile, i would like to dedicate this little section of my blog to thank God for the wonderful service this morning and the intriguing, behind the scenes PETRA core group meeting. It was really a time well spent as we planned our future plans for the growth of the ministry and of course the upcoming Christmas gathering. Thanks guys for the warm welcome; Justin, Doreen, Ee Ling, Estella, Tai Wei, Isaac.
God bless y'all with a fruitful week ahead.
P.S. Miss Sim, should you venture to read this puny blog of mine, please do not succumb to the whims of rage as you would have possibly gleaned, it was written in the measure of pure fun, and i am in no way trying to discredit you whatsoever. However, i hope that should you read this blog, you could possibly see through the lenses of how your potential students may view you. I must say that you are quite a jolly-well person, with perhaps a stern demeanour that might stagger faint hearted students like me :o RElax.

I agree with that... lol... But isnt it fun doin all thee GTD stuffs? Its like... Oooo... In Heaven.... Oh ya! 1 more thing.. Shes a nice teacher... I believe the J2s will agree too...
Hmm, Mr Incognito i see that you are well versed with the PW terminology, which i am afraid i have completely forgotten, it being obsolete to me. Anyway you would have to explicitly state what you mean by heaven, as certainly your heaven seems like a perilous one.
As perilous as it can get.. It is obviusly better than hell...
