I prayed for good weather, a weather that will be sunny, hot, and without rain. I thank God for this, it was great! However, I realised that God's blessing was overwhelming, so much that the brightness of the sun limit my view to only 'left-right-down' and the hellish heat made me ooze droplets of sweat out of every pore on the surface of my skin. As I squinted my eyes against the sunlight, I thought, "this is what I want, man". I was so wrong. The sand, I felt like stepping on a pile of burning charcoal. Together with its sharpness, my sole experienced the path of fiery needles. I stood on the beach volleyball court, with my black slippers waiting for the other team to serve the ball. Reluctant to move out of my spot, I allowed Chong wei to do most of the receiving. Every move I made was torturing, within seconds, I must return to my comfortable spot. This restricted us from making better plays. so today's volleyball session was not that good. 'Waterpolo-captain's ball'? It was a nice idea. Almost everyone was involved and it was fun to play. I get to cool my over heated body in the cool salt water. All these events of games and tanning contributed to the fun today, but these are not suppose to be the main highlight of the day. What was important was Si Ying's birthday! A surprise was organised for her. After the shower, We all met up and celebrated her birthday. I hope that would be memorable for her. |
