taking me higher


for some reason i need to document all my Sundays cos they are so vivid and striking and beautiful.
so it started normal.
the after church, and lunch, Hannah, Shawna, Toby, James and I took the bus home. For some reason that made me happy. Floaty and unreal, like i was in a movie.
and i was especially pleased when we stopped off at da paolo and got a chocolate chip scone (today i went there too, nostalgic and craving for the taste of a CCS BUT they were all sold out so i had to content myself with a buttery croissant, which, though warm and delicious, could never match up to a CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONE)
After getting home, i played with Christy and Sarah on the trampoline,a nd i think the sudden rush of exercise after something of a famine from the stuff gave me such a nice adrenaline buzz. and of course the feeling of sailing through the air up and down and up and down.
Then we went upstairs for a brief respite, and i devoted my time to making Jan Hai laugh.
Downstairs again and james and tim came on the trampoline with us and James bounced me really high but i had to be careful because the higher one bounces the less control they have and i had to concentrate on not crashing into James or squashing tim.
The we went to Pastor Pullman's birthday dinner. On the way there i had a most interesting conversation with James. i let slip about how i was thinking of going to an SJI carnival to get feedback on the carnival so as to decide whether or not to go, and he said
James: SJI boys aren't...good
Me: You mean they're bad?
James: No, they just aren't good...They don't slay dragons...they aren't chivalrous...
Me: Do you slay dragons
James: YES
What does that even mean? Anyway i can;t go because i have a choir concert on that day, though i would be so fun to reunite with my primary school buddies....
after the party, we sang our way home, and that was a beautiful ending to a beautiful day.
closure.
