Don't know why, but I'm just so tired. Guess that's the throat infection kicking in. Bowling friendly in about 12 hours ... first competition since who knows when and I hope I can live up to my own expectations and not drag the rest down. Team 1 leh! Need to believe in myself more. PI is still half done, luckily dad's fetching me to school later. Parents brought alot of weird food home from the middle east, like pistachio butter?! o_O And a really pretty chess board, though no one ever plays chess. The people in Jordan and Syria are really friendly, apparently. The two countries are nowhere as conservative as Iran, 20% of the Syrian population are Christians and some of the people actually have blonde hair/blue eyes. And the food there isn't spicy! It'd be great to go to the Middle East someday ... experience a totally different culture and landscape.

Apparently Bukit Timah flooded yesterday? Wow.
