Celebrated Vesak Day with my Dharma class at a P*U lecturer's house. I think it was the 1st time I really celebrated this special day so elaborately. We chanted together, cleaned the Buddha sculpture with spoonfuls of water, and had a special skit performance too. The skit performance really was not easy as I was somehow arrow-ed to be the main lead so have to memorise script, and whatever else. Loved the songs which one of the seniors, Ivonne, composed to fit into the skit. They are like inside my head permanently already. :P Will post pictures as soon as I got them from other people as my camera ran out of battery. :(

It so happened to be Mother's Day also. As our shifu and the lecturer (female, a mother too) spoke with regards to this special day and the 2 occasions, I was deeply shaken. I suddenly missed my mummy very much and wished I was back in S*pore to wish her Happy Mother's Day. I fought hard to control tears that welled up in my eyes. I really have no idea what is wrong with me. I seem to have become more teary easily whenever Buddhism comes into the picture now. Do not really like me behaving this way. Maybe it is just the spirit of the religion that touches me, and not me being weak and emotional. Anyway, I feel that my faith is getting stronger. :)
