Episode: back to work
Sunday, October 19, 2008

Got up, did my work. I know I have a lot to do. I have been slacking, but now I know what to do. While I was doing my work, my mom told me to refill the tarts, so I did. My brother and sister's friend is coming, thats why. While I was refilling the Tupperware, one of the tarts were molding. Only these few were molding, so I took them out throw them away.

Then, my parents called me up to help them carry something they bought from IKEA. It was a wardrobe or cupboard, I was not sure. But it has not been assembled yet, and it was very heavy. It weighs as heavy as myself I guess. With each other's help, we got the pieces of wood up to my parents room. I perspired a lot after that workout.

Soon, my brother came with his gal. I was very tired, and after a while, I fell asleep. During that time, my sister's friends came.

When I woke up, I ate dinner and got back to more work.

While I was doing my work, I was watching Star World. They were showing Miss Potter. I really liked the show. It was about this girl who grew up sketching and loves telling stories. Just before her 20th birthday, she decided be a single woman. Years past by, she introduced her sketches and stories to this publisher. Her 1st book was very successful. The publisher soon fell in love with her, and she became very important in her life and vice versa. He did proposed to her during Christmas, but she only said yes after confronting the publisher's sister. She never felt like this before. But, their love was forbidden by her parents, as she was of a rich blood, while the publisher is not. After negotiating with her parents, they came to an understanding. They were to get married after she and her family went away together for three months. Before she left, he gave her a kiss. They contacted by sending and replying each other's letter. Soon, she had no replies from the publisher. Instead, she got one from his sister. His sister says that he was ill. She rushed back, but was too late. The guy she loved, had past away and she did not even get to his funeral. She grieved, and she hardly sketch.

To know the rest of the story, you would have to watch it yourself. I find it very touching. Did she stay single all her life? Did she produce sketches anymore? Well, the movie is called Miss Potter, go check it out. It is truly one of the great love stories very told. Well, the lesson I get from it, is to cherish every moment with your loved ones. You would never know whether it would be the last.
