our garage had a great week! first off, we got a pool table today! wow, so heavy! another gift from craigslist. =) it needs some work to be done, since it sat in the rain a few times. but according to friends, it could be sold at least $1000 just as it is right now. good thing we had some help from some of the guys we met in the Singles for Christ sessions. took us more than 2hours to move it.
how about some drums? my sister's boss gave them to her, since her boss's son doesn't use them anymore. we're still missing a couch, and a tv/entertainment system, but i'm already looking forward to having friends over to our place when we get to arrange our garage. =)
jumping on to another bit, i watched the movie "In America" this afternoon. it's a story of a family migrating to the United States, constantly struggling to survive, but also spending happy moments with one another. the father had some problems connecting with his emotions, so his wife tells him to just make-believe he is happy. she actually said (or maybe someone else in the movie) that life IS make-believe => if you believe in it, it will happen, or is already happening. as i read some comments written about the movie, i stumbled upon a post that said our current situation or disposition affects the way we perceive the various things in our lives. and so i wonder why i like this movie so much? hehe.
to write down something else i also noticed: i haven't been able to remember my dreams these past few weeks. usually a dream or two would linger in my mind, making me wonder how it connects to my reality. but now, even if i wake up fine (meaning i am less sleepy and/or grumpy than usual when i get out of bed), i simply forget.
with all these mixed up stories, it just goes to show that my brain is slowly getting its old rhythm back. all the thoughts waiting (for so long) to buzz into life are flowing again. huh, typical. just when i said i haven't been thinking much these past months, here comes this rush.
