The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood,
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

the day started off slowly. drearily. seems like its always the case for 'fridays'. pw in the morn. she was valiantly trying to be friendly. sad to say, i dont think she was very successful. i love my pw group! haha... i think we rawk lah...

n so the day dragged on.

went back for guides today. went to collect year book. flipping through, looking at photos of everyone. funny how 6 mths change ppl so fast. n u see faces u haven seen for awhile. like guo tong.. mrs koh...

oh mr lim! i popped by ur nursery!

took a peek into the eco garden. before i reached the nursery there came this slow, comfortable hum of the machine.. its the sprinkler sending out a gentle mist over the plants. first thing that struck me was how clean and neat it was. gone were the scattered pots of soil littered on the floor of the nursery. there werent that many plants, but what was there looked healthy. and happy!

yeah. it looks good, it looks promising. it looks pro! (:

urban hike today. was it just ytd cherie liling n i were standing in front of the guide at the void deck telling them abt safety precautions etc. rmb wheelock, borders, starbucks? rmb the three of us. close my eyes n ill see my sec 4s, gina, brenda, danwei, divya, hannah, melissa, etc etc etc etc all up in front giving out their debriefs one by one.

and i realize today how much i still love guides. and also how much im not in touch with my sec 1s... and the new recruits! i hardly know them at all... rmb what one of the ya said.. there r somethings u do just because you want to do it. not for anything else. thank you. thank you for having taught me so much. for having been always my pillar of support. wonder if i cld ever b one for them...

...

got my first birthday present today. it is so 珍贵 that im afraid to accept it. its priceless and i really treasure it. ty krystal. (:

it was the last straw. reading it was the last straw... i dont deserve this. i dont. seen you since almost 4 yrs ago now. n hadnt always believed, hadnt always had hope, so i dont deserve what u say. but thank you. n this yr, hadnt been arnd much at all. hadnt been supporting u ppl all the way...

felt awed and felt so small...

ty for ur faith, ty for believing in me. n yes, uve grown so much... since a long time ago and every setback just brings u back on stronger.

cant imagine that my little actions have such an impact on other people. n so long ago they were...

"the nicest compliment is when someone sees in you the person they want to be". i rmb u gave it to me. n i see it almost everyday.. cause it on top of my switch for the lights...

and guess what?! its 7 more days to nats! so exciting! haha. no really, its super exciting.

dream.

wads life w/o a dream?

rmb that dream. rmb what u said. work hard. and in the end no matter the result its the process that matters most. the process is the cake and the results the icing on top.

of course itll b great if we cld all get the cake N the icing.
