;19:01"Consciousness is a light directed outwards, it lights up the way ahead of us so that we don't stumble. It's like the headlights on the front of a locomotive - turn them inward and you'd crash." //Boris Pasternak; Dr Zhivago
my family on my dad's side is kinda obsessed with having dim sum! we've been having dim sum lunches for 3 weeks straight already, cant keep count of the no. of char siew baos I've had keke. this time, went to fei mao at chinatown point. had lots of dim sum but only managed to take pics of 3 durian balls before everything was eaten up la. apparently, the kimchi here is super nice cos my sisters kept eating kimchi cucumbers instead of proper food.
and the coconut dessert is pretty special cos they have some sort of pudding with ice-cream mixed with the coconut flesh inside. my sister kept trying to entice me to eat but urghh not my kind of sweet haha, I'd rather have thick, warm chocolate brownies!
a good three hours later - the savage aftermath!
and our only male cousin, calebeee! he's darn adorable cos he can speak now but it's super hard to catch him smiling in a photo cos babies move so fast!
and us camwhoring, trying out the 4 snapshot functions thingie on my sister's camera haha. but the quality sucks cos it moves between 4 frames super fast, its damn hard to capture the expressions!
more or less, things have been settled. I think the good thing out of it all is that I learnt that my actions have repercussions on other people, whether I mean it or not. so even now, I regret a little what I've been feeling and the result it's led to. I know that it was fortunate that the small flames were put out before they burned down everything, but in the process of firefighting, people have still been hurt and stressed and now I'm worried about other stuff. love can be hard as sticks and stones sometimes, we just have to ride the rough patch out.
let God provide, I know, I will remind myself of that.
