She's going to make it.

Not that I think anyone would have been bothered or too overly concerned, but the reason I've not been writing a lot these past few days is cos, I'm in love. HUH?

No, that's not the reason. It's cos I'm really tied with the project that I've been on since last term and that was also when my tummy starts to disagree with me ever so often. This library project is hazardous to my health.

It will be launched, hook or crook, this Friday.

The last lap here that I'm running (panting hard while at it) is how to launch it. Honestly, it's been a project that has been given too much attention. I mean, the attn it's receiving and the impact it's been expected to create is running non-parallel to its size and collection. Perhaps I got so lost in all this that I lost my clarity of thought, which is particularly important in this last lap.

Up till yesterday, I still didn't know what is going to happen and admit it, I'm not confident it will happen the way it should. I was not comfortable with the lack of in-depth discussion over it. I mean, duh! 1 CCA period and a 25 minutes walk to plan and organise an official opening, pooling ideals, expectations and reality together? If my team's effort had come this far, I really think this last lap deserved more real sitting down and real thinking, brainstorming and conceptualising.

Today, I sat down, put down my Iced Passion Tea, put up my hand and asked for help. From Bblics darling. I didn't think we would get far. I only wanted help in making balloons fly. That help didn't come, simply cos the physics of nature didn't allow it. But, what got brewed was an idea that made even more sense to me. A more brilliant idea. A more brilliant idea that spelled out exactly what I thought it should be done and how it can be done.

Truthfully, I'm surprised myself! How things fell into place over some really decent Garlic Prawn Pasta, Iced Passion Tea and Triple Chocolate Brownies at Coffee Club, Millenia Walk. The place has always been associated with positive thoughts, happy thoughts and fond remembering.

We went to Carrefour to buy cushions for the library. And all the jellies which would be used as door gifts. Then, to reward ourselves, rather, to reward her, we went for sushi.

Boss and small bosses may not like the idea. I may need to modify again. But, what the heck! When the focus is there, things will fall into place much easier. And, as far as I know, the focus is what you need to tell a convincing story that you are going to make it.

Friday. Make it or not, I'd be off to Bangkok by 1645h. heh. Will get a really nice visor for Bblics there, to thank her for her contribution. ^^
