:: pain in obedience ::

that's basically what i learnt during service today.

ok let me start from thurs. went to Kbox with my cell pple. it was fun la, but i didn't really enjoy myself. felt like we're not allowed to sing chinese songs, cuz joshua kept shouting "eject (the song)!" whenever it's a chi song. the rest of them were just laughing along la, like they dun mind it.

fri
i was so clumsy i spilled the packet of tea i bought for breakfast. ended up mobilising my colleagues to clean up with me, since my boss was not around. haha. cuz my indian colleague always complain abt the dust in office tt makes her sick, n she kept saying "one day we should clean up the office", so y not make it today. heh. swept n mopped the floor.

then i started eating my breakfast. since i had late breakfast i decided to skip lunch. got hungry around 4+pm, but wondered if i shld go n buy some food. it was going to be dinner time soon lor. then i called my dad n he drove me to hougang for dinner. bought a top there for $9 (i wore it on sunday) =P also bought the primary sch shoes tt was in trend a while ago. will design something on it when i have time haha.

watched the Sinking of Japan. crappy. there was so much volcanic activity tt there was dust n ashes falling from the sky n yet the pple, the Japanese of all pple, didn't wear masks or try to cover their noses n mouths! so much volcanic activity tt the air shld have been very very acidic! think the pple's skin shld burn man! not v realistic lor.

sat
had breakfast with my mom. went back n started making the Psalmist ministry leaders' appreciation notes. didn't manage to finish them but i had to go for lunch with my cell grp already. i left some materials at home - argh.

skipped lunch cuz i had a late breakfast again. then we had a time of sharing n prayer. felt tt all of us are struggling, n since reading the email abt persecution in Turkey, i prayed tt we will not pray for no struggles, but that thru struggles we will come out stronger.

played Boggle for games n then some Wet Head thing. had a discussion for cell evangelistic event. i hope to invite ting, judy, swee yi, amanda...to get to know my cell grp friends. they're part of my life as u guys are, so y not get to know the pple i've been blogging abt?

after tt went to find wenzheng n a few others to compile the leaders' appreciation notes. i thought i was the last one to finish it, but phew i wasn't! hee.. we were at SAJS canteen, but it was getting dark n we had no access to the lights so we moved to Mac's.

after we finished it i went to the coffeeshop opp indian temple with guorong n vincent. we started talking abt work, n then worship conference, n guorong shared what he had felt abt WC last yr. i guess it was a bad experience for both of us. there was supposedly no high expectations of the projection thingy, but actually there was. we agreed tt it had sapped a lot of our energy. n i declared tt i'm not going to do any video editing anymore.

sun
in a bad mood. was thinking abt the birthday celebration thing early in the morning n i really felt like cancelling the whole thing. just dun feel like celebrating anymore.

got to church late for the 9am teaching. went in halfway n Zane was sharing abt Mary as a woman, wife, mother. n yup the main lesson is, there's pain in obedience.

terry led worship. lotsa new songs to me. halfway thru one of the songs i started tearing, cuz i felt very upset. was thinking abt the morning greeting. u know when the chairperson announces, "let's greet one another..." anyway. i know it's human nature to be biased towards certain pple, but it's certainly human nature to feel upset to see pple being biased to other pple in front of u. at first my reaction to it was "?", but when i kept thinking abt it i felt more n more terrible.

offertory item was a very grand tamborine, streamers, flags dance. they're gonna do it for Global Day Of Prayer (GDOP). =)

after service i had a short discussion on tj balai trip with suzanne, elena n gail. really need a lot of wisdom.

also talked to faith abt bday celebration thingy. actually though i wanted to cancel it, the thing is, my focus shld be treating my cell grp to a party for being with me for so many yrs. not cancelling it just because i think i'm not worth celebrating for. argh. think i'm still going ahead with it n i'll go ahead with chocolate cake.

went for lunch with cell grp at the chicken rice stall again.. still in a bad mood but my cell grp doesn't deserve me throwing tantrums at them la.

went to boon keng to meet gail again, to join her discussion with her friend abt her Tibet mission trip. learn quite a lot abt planning. prayer is really really impt. i need to revive my prayer life. really guilty for not praying abt my cell grp evangelistic event. i was very sleepy during the discussion but good thing is i'm just sitting in.

then i went to gail's hse to chill out for a while before going to dhoby ghaut to find my dad for dinner.

this is only the start of the new week, i really shldn't feel so defeated! i think it's just PMS la. =(

:: happening weekend ::

haha yeah let me continue from monday. after work i rushed to Novena cuz my dad was going to pick me up to go for Canon Benson's farewell dinner. i was quite sian cuz my mom was there - i mean my dad drives a motorbike. so it's either her or me. i saw Agape pple at burger king so i thought i have company, and i told my parents i would join them, they could go ahead. but dunno y they very antisocial leh. just ignored me. only vincent bothered to talk to me - for a while. =(

at the dinner i was still very sian, cuz i was sitting with my parents and their cell grp. felt very very very awkward - n bored. i wished i was at the bbq instead. my parents cell grp got a doctor, who would tell them tt they're getting old, not suppposed to eat too much of this or that... but pple r just naughty la. the more u dun allow them to eat something they just want to. quite amused by tt la. the food was good. but there was a dish with just deep fried oil. =x

almost near the end of the dinner i had to go, with ruth, clifton, noah, hannah n huiting, to MCG bbq at ECP. it was quiet, not like the fun n noisy bbq i'm used to. at first i was worried tt they couldn't finish the food, but when we reached, the portion left was ok. sarah warmed and cooked the food for us.. =) the food was actually ordered online n delivery requested. so impressive!

after eating sarah gave out some stuff and asked if we're interested in doing a study on missions. so exciting! this stuff is taken from www.dci.org.uk, it's called All the School of Missions Lessons. there are 6 topics on missions, which i suppose covers all theory aspects of it. it's like attending YWAM courses, but free! totally free for download and encourages pple to pass it on.

after tt persis, gail n i had a discussion on tj balai. then some of them went home. left 6 of us - elisa, hannah, persis, sarah, naomi n me. i went to the beach while hannah and sarah went to shower, persis n naomi went to wash up. elisa joined me. had a good time getting to know her better. =)

around 2am we decided to go to sleep. at first i couldn't fall asleep cuz of the hard ground, which shouldn't have been a problem. *shrugs* then around 6am elisa shook me up n shouted, "go! go! go inside the tent!" then i realise it had started raining!! haha.. so all 6 of us squeezed inside. it poured very heavily. and it got quite stuffy inside the tent. n i wanted to pee. =x then someone came up with the suggestion of moving to elisa's car and go to Mac's. there were 2 umbrellas, so we took turns to fetch things and pple to the car.

we had breakfast at mac. i really v long nv eat at Mac's already. they have this new Bagel with omelette. comes with onions and tomato! =( other than that it was just ok only. after tt i got a lift from elisa to suntec, where i took bus 133 to church. was about an hour early, so i thought of taking a nap. chris came and asked if i want to go to the office. although i was tired i couldn't fall asleep leh. then shirley came and showed me her 99 baht CK sunglasses. woohoo~

then we moved off to the main hall to pack the stuff, including the chord sheets. woah. i hadn't expected that. thought it would be like last time kind of QD. i got a bad back ache from packing the stuff. mainly removing the contents from the Glimpse of Heaven goodie bags and rearranging chordsheets. after tt we went to Kovan for lunch. went to the HK cha chan teng. i was complaining abt the price. instant noodles.... at $6.90, i can cook them myself! iced milk tea for $2.90?! in the end the money was more worth it when we got to move indoors to the aircon and cushioned seats. haha

after lunch we walked around Heartland Mall. i wasn't in a shopping mood. not when i haven't been home and haven't bathed for more than 24 hrs, having a back ache and still carrying a heavy bag. i was actually wishing the guys would help me with it. hee.

talking abt shopping, suddenly i remembered i missed out on sunday's lunch and shopping with my cell grp. so i'll slot this in here. we went to Marina Sq. had lunch at the food court and then shop around. my sis had asked for a charm bracelet so i thought of getting it for her since i'll be seeing her soon. got a good buy. =) then diana actually wanted to get birthday presents for her friends. so i shun bian look around also lor. i really can't stand clothes tt cost 3-digits man. esp those tt i feel i can even make them myself!!!! ... then we went to the bowling alley to find the guys. i didn't bowl. was too sleepy.

ok back to yesterday. after walking around heartland mall i decided to go home. cuz i just realise i was supposed to be at jueru's bday party at 5pm! n it was going to 3pm already. when i got home i charged my phone, set alarm clocks n took a nap. then when my phone was charged i switched it on n jueru called! oops! late! took a quick shower n went out. went to sengkang to shop for a present for her. took quite long at that. then when i reached her place it was 7.30pm already. she had cut her cake already. i was quite blur to see new faces. i only recognise amanda, n her family. her nephew, half ang-moh is so cute!! he calls jueru "yi-yi".

after eating a bit i went into her room with amanda to chill out n catch up with each other. there was another pretty girl with us. then i left with the pretty girl at around 9+pm. haiya, i always start to feel insecure around girls who dress up, or watch a beauty pageant, etc. i would feel like i need to buck up. but i know very well tt i'm called to NOT be like them. my money is not to be spent on clothes, cosmetics, bags, shoes... which many girls go after. ahhh... sometimes when i spend long enough time with girls like tt i tend to feel tempted to be like them.

very tiring long weekend.

today back at work my client called and complained to me abt my colleague again. from her perspective i can see tt my colleague is a very irresponsible person, especially with words. what he typed in an email to her actually got to her GM, and careless words could very easily get her into trouble! but after i told juliana abt this, she made me see things from another perspective. perhaps he was acting under instructions of my boss. i dun want to say anymore.
