♥ 11:42 AM

okay quick update abt the past wk:

friday caught angels & demons w zong and tiff at westmall cos im so bored and needed to get out. lols. well the movie was captivating and sure it had a nice twist towards the end, thou i think having a lil background abt the catholic history wld be so much more helpful and useful in understanding the story and the significance of some details here and there. in a sense tht im sure i wld have enjoyed the movie much more.

last sat was playmax dry run. hmmm kinda fell short of wht i expected, bt maybe cos not everything is up yet, and extreme max isnt up! bt i really enjoyed the err..the one played indoors like the mind games kind. forgot wht max is tht o.O but yeah i think its still worth the time. gna ask my friends along (: so guys if yall are interested, check this out: http://www.playmax.sg/. 12 & 13 june, SAC, 9-5pm. i'll prolly be gg on the 13th, saturday. so anyone interested just gimme a ring on my mobile or smth. then went church w the rest and joined in for screwtape. i personally find it interesting. and yes another reminder to me NOT to worry abt the future, which im alr constantly being reminded of thru -. - feels like a god sent guardian angel to constantly remind me of things which i should/ should not be doing. then rushed down SP for sports day! badminton then basketball. sure it was tiring but yes fulfilling, running ard like a kid again - like how i used to a few yrs back (:

last sunday had lunch with some deacons at american club. yes the food is marvellous. at first it felt like some very serious lunch or smth cos it was like smth kinda out of the blue - lunch for the A lvl grads with the deacons, sounds kinda scary right at the thought of it. plus no children under 12 are allowed into the dining area, plus no using of hp at the dining table. gosh! yes bt it turned out to be smth kinda informal la, just a casual talk over lunch kinda thing, with the deacons sharing their wise experiences and words of wisdom. maybe the motive was to like aid us in making decision of which course the take and like future prospects and how reality might be like probably cos we're the 1st ever largest batch of 19 yr-olds with so many A lvl grads? i dno. just my guess. then after dance went the esther's place for xue'er's farewell. yeah its really sad tht she's leaving cos she's one the teachers which i really had utmost respect for. and yes i've really learnt a lot from her, not really so much of the content and factual stuff, bt more of her attitude and love for god, her desire for god's words and her unswerving faith in God, which made me realise how inadequate and unequipped i am. well i dont dare to aim to be like her, bt i just want to know enough, to be be well-equipped enough to fend for my own religion. maybe i shld go read up on apologetics. but i believe she will be a blessing to the people there and be blessed in return just as much.

and the sat tht just passed, caught fireproof at DLCC. its a really good movie which clearly depicts how God changes lives. its abt how the power of love frm God changed the male lead and in turn salvaged a dying marriage. well many might say its just another movie, but really, just try it, experience it, and you know how wonderful the love of God is, and how miraculous HE is.
sometimes it just beats me, if only it happened to us, how different things wld have been now. this just further reminds me the imptance of finding a partner who loves the lord just as much, cos the basis and foundation of the relationship wld then be built upon God's love. sometimes you just cant deny it is a sign/reminder obvious enough frm God cos the sermon on sunday was on this very same topic. bt sometimes i just wonder, how do you know if it is ever god's plan for you to bring your partner before HIM? and your partner may accept christ lets say like just the last 10 yrs of his/her life since some ppl are just left for US to save. but we will nv know right, if we just shut all the non-believers outta our list of possible candidates. guess the most probable answer wld be only to pray and wait. hmmm guess i shld ask xue'er abt it before she leaves.

HC dance night after fireproof. met zong and jt before gg in, so we all sat tgt. rachew was there too. and thks peanuts for saving seats for us! (: think the dance was quite gd overall. i dno, bt im just easily amazed by the sheer abstract beauty of it, maybe cos i can nv dance like tht. maybe i cant say tht i know how to appreciate the art of it, but im sure i did enjoy the performance (: had a great time catching up with 'em at KAP. im sure these lovely ppl will be with me for the rest of my lives (:

had bu dao bu meeting on sunday. YES our very FIRST bu dao bu meeting. haha. cos we have bu dao hui in july, so better start planning early since its our very FIRST bu dao hui too! *excited* wna know wht you're in for? keep yourselves free on july 11, saturday, 3-6! hahaha (:

3 more wks to church retreat! yayness! then another wk aft tht to end of work! thou its not tht i have a contract or smth tht expires by july, just tht i intend to quit work by end june (: so in july i'll prolly be busy gg for camps, gg on trips with 2d/4h, PACKING my room (yes i promised my mon i'll pack it in july), clearing my table from A LEVEL stuff, YES A LEVELS, and packing my wardrobe - cos apparently its so cramp tht i cant put anymore clothes in, plus since i'll most prolly be revamping (well nt exaclty revamp) my wardrobe, bt gt new clothes ready for sch frm GSS! yeah so which means i'll have to throw old ones away, or those which i kp thinking and saying i'd wear cos it still looks decent so i cant bare to dump them, bt actually deep down inside i know i'll nv wear it ever again, so i dno why am i still kping those clothes for. or i'll nv find space to stuff my new clothes. haha.

so this wk's gna be the norm - work, tuition. then sat catching darwin movie abt evolution or smth. then sunday is GDOP - global day of prayer. yes which means i'll be missing dance ): okay bt yeah i chose to go for GDOP and chose to give dance a miss. i mean GDOP only once a yr mah, and since dance they decided to do recap + cleaning up nxt wk for the halo dance. so nt tht bad, bt maybe i just gotta prac on my own at home or smth lo.

oh the ham and sausages which my company ordered are gna be delivered tdy! yayness! its frm this wholesale factory which supplies to like cold storage and most of the renown hotels in singapore. yeah so quality is kinda guaranteed and its at a cheaper price! some cheaper by as much as like near 50% frm retail price at cold storage. check it out if you want: http://www.rudis.com.sg/customers.php. maybe jiateng you can go there buy since you live relatively near there. haha. if nt delivery charge of 20bucks aye! only waive if order above $200 excluding GST (YES theres GST)

okay so it seems the quick update aint really THAT quick afterall =x

Taylor Swift - You Belong With Me

You're on the phone with your girlfriend
shes upset.
Shes going off about something that you said
'Cuz she doesn't, get your humor like I do...
I'm in the room
It's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
and she'll never know your story like i do

But she wears short skirts
I wear T-shirts
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up
And find what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
been here all along so why can't you see, you
You belong with me
You belong with me

Walkin' the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine
I know you better then that
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that

She wears high heels
I wear sneakers
Shes cheer captain and
I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
all this time how could you not know
Baby....
You belong with me
You belong with me

Oh
I remember you drivin' to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're about to cry
And i know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
Think I know where you belong
Think I know it's with me...

just hang around a lil while more;

the voice of truth
tells me a different story
the voice of truth says
'do not be afraid'
