today's singapore's 40th birthday.. hmm, 19 more years before i hit that age as well.. but i ain't gonna blog about national day but rather the happenings today instead..
overslept and woke up at almost 9am.. went down late for music ministry retreat at changi village area.. erm, before i go on, let me explain things here.. i'm not serving in music ministry.. well, i did some years ago for a short period of time but just felt that, that may not be where He wanted me to be.. but i actually went down to meet wangping, qihui, florence & timothy for dance practice, which didn't take place till about 12nn, thus i was late for my next appointment..
but i sat through the sharing of the music ministry people and guessed, maybe that's what He wanted me to do too.. if there were any outstanding themes, they had to be about 'being still before Him' and 'to seek Him in everything'... and of which, both which i have not done for a very long time to come and maybe been goodness knows how long.. it just felt so painful and so empty, that it actually hurts.. hmm, i don't exactly know how to say it here.. i just need my solitude time again.. really, desperately.. away from the computer, television, mp3 & music.. just Him and me alone.. and had a short but great time of praise and worship too.. followed by dance practice..
oh wells, and definitely am late for my next appointment at holland village.. guess who i met?? met up with devin, shirleen & uncle bernard!!! nenek couldn't make it but later we learnt that she actually went home before going out again.. missed her just like that.. it was so great meeting up and talking like those days back in nias.. exposing each other's 'dirty trade secrets and habits'... *laughs*... i really miss those days and it seemed so long ago.. almost coming to 2 months since we came back from nias.. lunch was katong laksa... think wilbe pan was actually in singapore and was eating at the exact same stall as us.. coz there were like 2 van-load of fans tailing behind him.. shirleen was more interested in taking photos of the fans' facial expressions than wilbe pan himself..
this was followed by 4 muddy mud pies from coffee club.. well, uncle bernard could not resist temptation.. and all of us just felt so bloated after we were done.. but i finished my mud pie!!! woohoo!! uncle bernard made a call to debbie, who's in china.. and the 3 of us were just waiting for that priceless smile on his face but hicks, didn't get to see it this time.. and he told debbie that he was stuck with 3 noisy kids... goodness!!! afterwhich, devin, shirleen & me actually just stood outside cold storage and talked for almost 2 hours.. goodness gracious!!
met up with some of my german class people for dinner.. and as usual, i'm late but i didn't eat coz was still bloated from the muddy mud pie.. but i was eating off desserts at cafe cartel and weiyao's & khim nyang's fries.. stole views of the fireworks at the esplanade and padang from our window seats.. and goodness gracious, the crowd was horrible!!! it literally came to a standstill and there were people everywhere... argh!!! help help!!! the queue to the city hall mrt station was endless.. it finally cleared approximately an hour after ndp ended.. yup yupz, auf wiedersehen folks.. till i next see you all in school!! =)
on a sidenote: i better start on my letters else they will never be done by thursday!! goodness gracious.. and just heard the promotion ad on tv for snow.wolf. lake.. ARGH!!!
