Usually I will complain of having Monday blues every start a brand new week. But today I didn't because... I don't have to go to school. It's great you know, being able to wake up at any time you want and spend the day in any way you like. This is FREEDOM! Anyway, last night, I went to sleep immediately after dinner (which is around 7.30pm) and did not wake up until this 8.30am this morning. Hmm...I think I slept for around 13 hours?! I felt so refreshed after all the late nights I have been having since the promos. I have not had such a nice and deep sleep since a long time ago. I watched some more VCDs today, one of which was the TVB 37th Anniversary celebrations.
After lunch, I typed out my speech for the oral presentation examination. It's coming nearer and nearer. In fact, it's only 2 pathetic days away! I'm so nervous and scared; I hope I will be able to do my best. My group is presenting to two groups from another class and I don't know a single one of them! It's already so scary to present and now I have to make eye-contact with some people who I don't even know. I really pray hard to God that I won't make any mistakes and that everything will go about smoothly.
Then on Thursday, Emmanuel has his annual performance for his kindergarten. We all came from the same kindergarten and they have this annual performance at the end of the year where each class has to put up a performance. Usually it's a dance or song item and everyone has to participate. I remember rather clearly that in my first year in kindergarten, my class put up a play on Snow White. Of course I didn't get any of the main roles like Snow White or the seven dwarfs; I didn't even get the role of the evil witch. I was...just a tree! I remember being clad in brown and green and smiling my largest smile at the audience while I swayed to the music. In my second year, I was the compere for my class. This year is Emmanuel's last year in the kindergarten, so he will be wearing the graduation robes and collecting his certificate during the performance. I think he really put in a lot of effort in practising for his item, hope everything goes well for him!
I really like the tune of this cantonese song. I didn't have the lyrics of the song last time. Thanks to Wei Zi , I have it now. Let me type it out.
《再生花》
怀念你 回忆却恨你 赐我这天地
陪着你 为等告别你 明年桃花飞
Chorus:
葬过花，红过心，忽远又近
我与你看遍烈月密云
你背影是我伤痕
我与你能爱得比风沙更狠
将今心 弥补他心爱 谁知有没有下文
一颗心，多少脚印
谁可证实结伴同行
指天发誓你我若有天可再生
祈求天意别要弄人
谁又会答应再生不爱别人
甜蜜过 而苦也炼过 那里有帮助
投入错 剧本却没错 谁能谈因果
（Repeat Chorus)
This song was sung by Kelly Chan and was used as the theme song for 《再生缘》. The tune is really nice and I think the lyrics are rather meaningful too.
By the way, I think I may not be able to go to Korea at the end of the year. There's a big problem coming up; my maid doesn't want to work for my family anymore. If my mum has to find and teach a new maid, I really don't think we have much time to go for a holiday anymore. Furthermore, my mum says it's not safe to leave a maid that is about to leave alone in the house when we go for holiday. I guess it must be the recent case whereby the maid chopped-up her friend while the employer was on holiday. It must have caused her to feel uneasy. I pray and hope that my maid will continue to stay and work for us for another year before she goes home. Everything will be fine then.
Well, I have to go somewhere later on. I shall lie down and relax for a while before I set out.
Goodbye!
