a dream last night

i met her in my dream last night, it was a rainy day, the sky was dark..we were walking on the streets...i was carrying an umbrella and so was she with someone else beside her...i saw a tattoo on her leg, or maybe it was just a drawing, but it seemed so vivid, with a heart shape and her initials..so i asked her if she already have someone else in mind, if she already liked someone else..that's why she decided to go that school, and she replied shyly, "yes!"..so maybe that was the reality that the dream wanted to communicate to me..

yesterday i went to the youth olympics village and on the way, shuo qian, veronica and I met the swedish triple jump athlete champion. she was with her coach and there were only 5 of us on the bus, it was uber cool and we chatted with them and took pictures with them..

at the village, i went to visit xin hui, and talked to her a while in her office where she was printing cert for the victorious athletes and after which the three of us hanged around, visited some of the athletes and then the booths =) i met the taiwanese athletes while veronica managed to chat with the colombians..we also caught a glimpse of Guo Jing Jing the china dive queen..then i made a peg and won a bookmark from the korean booth...

after that i decide to go back to bishan for my second shift of the day with athletics..on the way, it was pouring...the bus drove by innovation centre of NTU and i was reminded of the day when we went out alone together, on your birthday...i remembered we were wet, my umbrella was spoilt and you lent me your spare umbrella..we got our feet wet and the wait at the medical centre..i was reminded of you again..maybe that's why i dreamt of you last night..

i thought i can be strong and forget about you already but guess i still need some time...but i know that while volunteering, i have made many good friends and the time spent at YOG volunteering allowed me to concentrate on life and not think about you...

i really like my fellow colleagues at Bishan because they are all so friendly and we can feel the sense of teamwork and warmth of the friendship that we have established in this short two weeks..i guess i will miss the volunteering when i return to taiwan to study next monday..

time flies, and i will have to leave soon, leave singapore, a place where i have stayed for 15 years..maybe the taiwanese reporter is right..he told me i would not adapt to taiwan's way of life when i return but i guess i will just have to adapt..i was so frustrated by the stupid school website but my mum just tell me to get used to it..so i hope i will...i will miss my friends in singapore, whether friends i have known for so long since pri school or those that i have just made maybe like only last week...

nevertheless i know i am heading for new challenges in life...i will face it bravely and i know in taiwan i can meet fantastic people and find good friendship as well =) hopefully everything will go fine when i return next monday..wish me luck =)

p.s. today i went to shoot some hoops at the community centre and i was crowded out of the court by a bunch of uncle..they seemed fitter than me and some even have tattoo so i can't complain...well respecting the elderly is what we should all do right? haha
