You called me yours forever.
(♥)

Graaaar, a question I have asked myself is:

" What have you done this whole holidays? "

I can easily tell you my schedule on my "off" days. Which means no church or cell group outings or whatsoever.

Wakes up: 2-3pm
Plays until: 7-8pm
Eats dinner: For about half an hour
Continues playing until: 4am.

Yeah, I am such a bum. And so, thinking about the 31st of december. Why did I even choose to organize it. It all started out with Leaders' Appreciation, not Cellgroup Thanksgiving. To think that I could actually do something like this. Well maybe I could, but I've procastinated too much. Well that's what I do best right? Procastinate. Ahh, whatever.

And YOU, keep leaving me stranded right there. Pick me up, and just throw me away when you're done. It's not helping to anything, if you haven't noticed. I don't know if it was coincidental or not, but when I did my quiet time and asked God to speak to me through His word, I randomly flipped and got to the passage where Nehemiah was building the wall.

Nehemiah 6:1-16.

I'm afraid of doing what is told, but really should I? Is it even what God wants me to do. I believe I'm so unspiritual that I can't even discern right from wrong.

And these are only two of the problems I'm facing right now. Seriously, God I need help.

OKAY. FINALLY UPDATING ONCE AGAIN. What day is it, saturday? Anywho, christmas services on wednesday and thursday.

It was awesooooome. The drama team just put so much effort into it, and they really deserve a big applause. It was named OPERATION: SAVE THE WORLD. A drama production on how the angels were assigned to this mission to bring Jesus the saviour into Earth. Pictures at the bottom (:

On thursday I went to jurong west ( wednesday @ expo ) to try to help out a little in a sense. Same drama, same message, but the purpose is different. It really made me feel like I had something to do, rather than waste my time on the computer at home. Well, I still haven't got to be a counsellor ): Keep getting KS'd hahahah. It's okay, my time will come! Queued up for seats at like 2, when service starts at 3.30pm. Got floor seats ( which is kinda good ), and it was sooo pressurising cause the ushers were so buggy. Anywho, Ben and I gave up our seats for the new friends. Was supposed to seat infront to help build up the atmosphere but our seats got snatched away by peeps sooo yeah. Front row of the choir side taken, proceeded to second row of the middle section. It's like omg! It's just a row behind all the pastors. Was beginning to feel so privelledged to be able to sit there, but those seats got snatched too so yeah. Ended up seating in the front row of the stairs (: Lol. No regrets though, it felt good to serve :D

Okaaaaay and so yesterday was Kenneth's birthday! (26th december). Only managed to reach there at 10+ since I had to accompany my mum out. Played a few games of pool, and we left since it was like 11.50+? They managed to catch the last bus home but Ben and I were stuck in bugis >_> Took a bus which took us to holland v, and decided to just walk. But first, went to cold storage and bought stuff to accompany us on our journey :D
Embarked on a walk from Holland V to Clementi, which was pretty successful. I mean we reached clementi at like 3am? Sat at the bus stop until 5am, before deciding to go home.
I reached home and snacked a little cause I didn't eat lunch nor dinner ): Ended up falling asleep in my pile of snacks! That was like close to 6-6.30am? And suprisingly I woke up at 9. No idea what woke me up.. prolly my mum's shoutings lol. Anywho went back to sleep and woke up again at 2!

(Starting to get a little wordy :/)

Anyway today's service was an interview with Sun, Pastor Kong's wife! First time actually seeing her. What it really spoke to me throughout the whole interview was that even though Sun is a big hit, a celebrity and all. In person she too, just looks like a normal human being. Two arms, too legs, two eyes etc. If she can do such wonderful things in the world, why can't some of us too? I believe it is really just whether you start seeking your calling and whatnot.

Whatever negative words the newspaper used regarding Sun, which also brings about a bad impression to the non-city harvesters. All I can say is that you have to experience it to cast your perspective. Some people have this hatred against CHC just because of the rumours of Sun, and their narrow mindsets.

What she said today, about going out into the market place and shining as salt and light really impacted me. God created the entertainment world, the arts and media. Definitely he would want his people to shine in those industries too, and not be confined in being a preacher, evangelist etc.

Yes and so, I'm feeling really pumped up :D Ahhhhhhhhhhh the 31st of december CAN BE A SUCCESS.

w400!
Candle light!
w400 again~
Drama production :D this is when Jesus was already born.
Aaand Kenneth's birthday @ swensens.

Sooo, I am finally 16. I can watch NC16 shows with ease :D

Thanks guys for all the gifts and wishes, I seriously didn't expect so many people to even bother wishing me. But yes, I really want to thank MY MUM, Seb Tay and Zac for going that extra mile (: Not to mention Ben Tan, Kenneth, Jia Zheng, Shirlynn and Diana too. And thanks to everyone who has wished me happy birthday! Thankshouyyy.

Okay! So I was taken by suprise, when my mum gave me a red packet with a little note on it. It was very very very special to me. Ahhhh, I felt so touched :D Anyway yeah, met up with the band members. Faced a minor problem before the jamming session started, but it got solved pretty quickly :D Jamming wasn't as good as last week's, but the last part was nicee. Anywho, I really need more practice.

Sooo I felt really really tired after the session ( no idea why ), but yeah was better at starbucks after dinner. It's prolly the fragrance of coffee :D Yesss anyway, yesterday was an enjoyable day.

Once again, thank you guys for everything :D

Christmas service tomorrow! Woo!

Hello! Been to town again, to do a bit of christmas gift shopping for the new friends who are coming for the christmas services.

Anyway first things first. I forgot to mention something. It was so funny, at the foodcourt in Westmall, and everyone was watching The Little Nyonya. It's like even if they didn't have any food, they just sat there watching the TV. AND when it was 10pm, the show ended and EVERYONE got out of their seats and left the place, as if they had just finished watching a movie lolol.

Okay! So went to suntec/marina! Imma start buying those tees like in Topman :D Ahhh yeah time to go for budget new fashion sense heh. Then chilled at Starbucks for a couple of hours since we felt reaaaaaalllyy tired. Man, I've been out of the house so many days. And just last year I don't even step out of the house. Big improvement :D

Yupp, anyway candlelight service tomorrow! Gotta help out with the hostel friends. Busy busy!

Seriously, I think I'm becoming more and more like a gay in terms of body actions. Noooo, too much soyabean ):

Okay! Anyway went out with Ben Tan, Bush, Kenneth, Jia Zheng and Shirlynn. Did a bit of christmas shopping, and they got me my birthday gift :D Yay grey pair of skinnies. Dooood, we went into the shop and it's like "This is a girls shop?" and the lady said "Yes this is a girls shop but we have guy customers too." And suprisingly I went to try on that pair of jeans and it fit soooo nicely. AND AND AND it's soooo cheap. I couldn't believe it when I first heard the price. Woow, secret k.

Anyway yess, rather happy. I finally have "more clothes to add into my arsenal." as quoted by Ben Tan :D It's been forever since I have gotten any clothes for myself. Wew, I'm broker than broke >;
Went to BIBI&BABA to change the size of my long pants. Sadly, it is now baggy. Ahhhh, yeah okay I think we walked quite a bit around town. Saw many many churches stepping out to do performances in the middle of orchard road.

And yesss, I crave that red French Connection shirt which says FCUKVIOLENCE. Gonnagonna get it when I get money. Idk but I suddenly have this craze for t-shirts too :D Man, money no enough ok ):

Well whatever, kinda tired. Bye (:

Hello! Finally blogging after another long break. Okay this whole week has been pretty busy.

On sunday! Went for another jamming session, but this time I really improved a lot. Hoho so happy :D Played the song "The God I know", which is also the first song I played in the recording. Hehe.

Moving on to tuesday, headed to Diana's house to make Yujie's present. Had to do a painting with the name "Elisha" on it, and yup. Got it done, so we all went for prayer meeting at the Jurong West building, all 10 of us. Presence in this place was really different. Well it might have been Pastor Kong, and it also might have been all the people who were hungry for God that made the atmosphere. So it's really about getting back to the spirit, gotta extinguish all sense of tiredness and moodlessness this christmas. Let's hit 54,000 people! :D

Okay and wednesday! It was our AC Zone's christmas party! Photos on facebook, I'm too lazy to upload them. Besides, my hair was so messed up then )': It was fun, the food was great. Fellowship was better. And not to mention the shirts look great too (: Those people who didn't come really missed out on a lot. Haha.

Thursday (today) is finally my "offday". Wanna catch a well deserved break, after travelling to the east and west so many times!
Sunday: Home, Jurong West, Clarke Quay, Home.
Tuesday: Home, Kembangan, Jurong West, Home.
Wednesday: Home, Clementi, Suntec City, East Coast, Clementi, Home.

I'm soooo tired of travelling.

Tomorrow's shopping for christmas day? I gotta change my school pants too. But the next size is really baggy, so I gotta alter it more. Ahhh so much money T_T.

Okay! I think I've blogged enough hehe. Seeu!

Hello, haven't been blogging in awhile. Anyway I thought I should take ownership of this, and stop being lazy! It's been 5 days since I've last blogged.

Anywho, I can't say much has happened. Been for bible study (finally) this week, campus explosion training today, and well... there's a slow improvement in my current condition of unwillingness to everything.

Attempted to do my QT today, but didn't manage to grasp anything. Idk but I'm just faithless.

Did some charity work today, packed 5 bagpacks with fullset schooling stationary equipments.
Oh dear, my life seems so boring ): Financial crisis which supposedly is affecting me. Arise & Build, so many events coming up. Near-to-daily activities, birthdays, going out with friends, I can't even save enough money by eating only one meal a day. I lost so much weight. It's like a norm, I don't even feel as if I'm on a diet or whatsoever.

Ahh, christmas is coming, gotta buy stuff for gift exchange, jamming this sunday. Can't wait for school to reopen x_x.

Yay! I got my blogskin completed. Well more or less, it doesn't look that nice but it's still nice :D

I guess I'll be using this until christmas is over. Yup so I had to manually re-link everyone. If I miss you out please let me know and I'll fit you in okay? :D

Re-exams are now just part of my history, and it will stay that way. I no longer feel the pressure of failing, but it's growing into a fear right now ): Results will be released on thursday, and I am so uncertain of what is ahead of me.

But being myself, I can only look forward into the future and continue walking (:

It's also december already. I'd say it's my favourite month of the year :D It's truly the festive season and it's the month of my birthday (:
I better start making a wishlist hehe.

Anyway I feel like I've slackened off. A lot. I wonder what happened to that hunger.

ALSO, I'm starting to become anorexic. For a few days, I've only eaten dinner. Like nothing from the morning until the night. And I don't eat that much either. Well, since I'm too lazy to gym I might as well go on a diet.
Saturday was also the first time I have eaten lunch since Asia Conference :D

Last but not least, I need a haircut ):
