The know-it-all-machine

11.26 am

It's still early. The bus wouldn't be here by 11.40 am, I thought so I went into South Common Mall...since it was quite cold and turned my way into the washroom.

There was this weighing machine by the washroom door. But then someone was at the sink so I went into one of the cubicles first.

Then I sneakily went out after I thought that that lady must had left (well not sneakily though, just an exaggeration) and conquered the weighing machine *evil laughs*

And happily I stood on that machine as it told me all the stuff it was supposed to tell with me a quarter.

For instance, lucky number..you can try if you think it will work...luck...*phifft*...I'll be happy enough if this machine can prevent me a heart attack when I check my bank account next time and realised half of my initial sum of money was drained...


This machine can even tell a fortune or so..


It shouldn't be called just weighing machine...it's also fortune telling and get-your-lucky-toto-numbers machine...



I'll tell you if my dreams ever come true...XD

Volunteer and charity

It always makes you feel nice, to reach out a helping hand. Volunteering and charity.

Last Sunday I had my first volunteer work in my church's St Jude's cupboard, where religious items are sold once a month. At first it felt awkward. Somehow you know how friendly Canadians are. I tried to imagine how I used to enter a shop and embraced by the smile of the storekeeper.

Okay, so I smiled almost all the time, and greeting almost everyone that passed by even though not everyone replied. Well, the smiles and greetings you got back just warmed your heart.

I helped twice, once after the 9.30 mass and another after the 10.30 one. In the end, I was pretty happy with myself. Then I went to Walmart for some things and just outside the store, there was a booth selling and raising funds for breast cancer.

I approached it and bought a keychain and a tac pin and donated the change to the society. The lady at the booth gave me a hug, as a token of appreciation I guess. It took me by surprise but somehow that felt nice.

And I thought to myself, it's two in a row for today =)

Well, that's good for a start. It's both self-satisfaction and lending a helping hand at the same time

guesses

Sometimes it's really hard to guess what a person is thinking.

Do you know what is in my mind now?

Sometimes you cannot just rely on your intuitions, they might not tell you what you are thinking of. Intuitions are sometimes due to biasness.

Mind reading.

Am I reading the wrong thing all the time?

I wish to know for most of the time, things are just plainly my assumptions.

Maybe I can turn myself into a vampire and read people's mind...hehe...too much vampire diaries

Just like what other people's guesses on what I am thinking, could mine also be wrong?

Maybe or maybe not.
