Choices

Continuing on the idea of the abundance of bread. 😀

I realize that’s like life’s choices as well.

So if I hadn’t buy so much bread beforehand, (thinking that I can have it for breakfast and dinner), I could have make the actual decision of what I want for dinner at approaching dinner time.

The advance making of choices now, disables the decision making later.

But what if I want something else at the exact time of decision.

If I decide for later, now, I lose my privilege for decision making later.

What if, there were more or better choices later on?

Hmm…

While it borders between the line of being prepared beforehand and being decisive, I guess different situations caters for different level of prepared-ness.

Throwing away stress

The other day I went to a shopping mall a distance away to look for some stuff.
There was this bakery called Bread Life.
It’s a new bakery to me, dont exactly remember if I have had bought anything from there.

I love bread, and being a new bakery to me, I was so excited with the array of bread.. I kinda spend $8 on buying bread alone.

No no, I wanted it for breakfast that day and let it roll over into dinner, I’ll have a proper meal for lunch.
Or so I thought.

As you guessed, it didn’t happen… I’ve plenty of bread left to roll over the next day.

It didn’t help that I’m leaving the country in the evening the next day.
I didn’t want to leave it in the fridge because I wanted to defrost my fridge while I’m away.

I have the breads, whatever that was left of the groceries from the whole of the week, and the cookies that I’ve baked to bring home in sg.

Oh… So stressed I was.

I spent the whole morning reading and being distracted, “how… What am I going to do about the breads… How… I know I can also pack the veg as salad back to sg, but the bread how… The carrot how… The few ladies finger how…”

Went on to do a major cleanup of the apartment since I’ll be away. “How… the bread… I don’t want to eat for lunch lei.. I got marinated fish le.. How.. The carrot… Wah Kao… How?”

I got fed up.

*toot* why the hell is it so stressful?
It is just some freaking bread, somemore with what blue berry jam, not like it’s some meat. Why on earth am I so bothered about it.

Enough is enough, I brought up the dustbin, dump the remaining 2 breads, carrot and ladies finger away. Boy was I relieved.

I’m surprised, the drop in stress level, that weight off the shoulder, that relieved..
It’s so easy to just let it go.

If only life’s pressure or worries can be that easily dropped?

That Queer Feeling

babies

I woke up this morning and in a state of semi-consciousness, I got reminded of a kid… one of the students I taught in the first class I took in JKT. Those really smart kids.

Shes the one that led a cake-in-a-cup activity during Home Economics CCA, shes also the one that got it bad from me bcos of a April Fool’s prank. She apologize immediately after the class-lecture about the trick.

April Fool’s day, perhaps kids will put stuff on the chair, behind the door whatever whatever.
If its something minor thats fine.
But this team..
