I'm proud of my workmanship collection! XD

shall jot down this day to remember in days, weeks, months, years to come.

started this morning doing TAWG in a different way than my usual 15min-instant devotion. I started listening to gospel music and let it speak to me. wasnt intentional, just wanted to rid my mind of secular music just before i pick up 'Our Daily Bread', heard "This is My Desire" and my spirit sang with it, and somehow i just ended up sitting on my bed listening to 15-20min of gospel songs, where i slowly become more in tuned to God, making my TAWG today more enjoyable than my touch-and-go, 10-15min devotion.

Somehow dint read from 'Our Daily Bread' as usual. Rather, randomly opened the book at Psalm, and twice, I'm back at Psalm 103. Read it. It was a good reminder. Composed a simple song from the verses that spoke to me.

Bless the Lord O My Soul

Bless the Lord O My Soul, Bless the Lord

Let all that's within me bless His name

Bless the Lord O My Soul, Bless the Lord
Let all that's within me bless His name

My soul, do not forget, His benefits

Who forgives all your iniquities

Who redeems your life from destruction

Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies

The Lord is merciful and gracious

Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy

As far as the east is from the west

So far has He removed our transgressions from us

Bless the Lord O My Soul, Bless the Lord
Let all that's within me bless His name

Bless the Lord O My Soul, Bless the Lord
Let all that's within me bless His name

Would have loved to extend the time even further, although i already extended by extra 15min, but gotta go meet pri sch mates for brunch.

1 fried carrot cake, 4 person shared, while waiting for the 5th person to come. haha. in the end, this 4 of us shared 1 plate fried carrot cake & 8 ju kueh, plus iced milo each except for 1 who went for plain hot water... in total for brunch. the 5th one bought a plate of fried carrot cake for herself. haha. i like this pic. quite nice. =)

then afternoon talking quite with fern.

evening.. went down to Changi Airport for section gathering (church, zone 2, gals cum guys). Glad the first person i met isnt someone who's not so familiar, which happened to be Andrew and then met Chloe not too long later.

Then very very fun!! Brought chloe go see the woodblock print, got her, and some others in the section excited. In the end, i end up being excited and seeing some creative strangers at work, felt motivated.... and TADA!!!

My masterpiece of which i'm proud of.

My section, all squeezed into that BIG lift in Terminal 3!! erm.. all i think 22 of us. yup yup.

had a great time wif them, quite. in the beginning worried i might go into one of those 'modes' again. but i guess bringing taboo was a good idea. It was the main ice-breaker for me, helping me break out solo-ist mode, which i nearly fell into. But i guess i shouldnt had worried. With this group, it's kinda hard. XD

sigh. but tonight also brings back lots of memories. Whether it's the woodblock print, whether it was popeye where we ate, whether it was the viewing gallery at T3, and lots of other factors i shall not mention as not to give myself away... It brought back quite a number of nice but nostalgic memories, memories of friendships i'll miss, memories of good times i will dearly miss. It especially reminded me of a particular someone. But sometimes keeping friends is not only for us to decide. There's a limit of the effort we can put into friendships i guess.I'll miss that friend, and i have a bad feeling that T3 will keep reminding me of that friend of mine. oh well, the airport there's the arrival hall and the departure hall. In life, there's the arrival of people into your life, and the departure of others. :)

Bracelets!!! =D

Tis the bracelet i did yesterday
Tis the bracelet my sis and i did ytd
Tis the bracelet i did last sat.

I'm really enjoying myself, learning something new. And it does look nice. Something i can be proud of myself. One of the very very few things i can be proud of. =)

NEW HOBBY!!! old PALS GET-TOGETHER!!!

Whew. what an eventful day today. start off early meeting couz, Yuy. at Outram at 11am, to buy materials needed for BRACELETS!!! yeah! a hobby which i've been wanting to have sience she taught us way back when i was still in pri school.

haha. we had a great time of fellowship and fun, shopping for beads/accessories/tools needed, of which i'm quite sure she spent about $50 to start us of, of which she strongly insist, refusing us to pay for them ourselves, and dun let us treat her lunch either... and learning how to make, and making a bracelet and a ring for ourselves - Me and my sis.

My Creation:

Yuy. (couz.) made for me

My sis & I... success!!!


then i rushed down to CHOMP CHOMP!! AGAIN!! haha. for DINNER!!!! with my pri school friends (lou,jol,kl,sh). we had a good time. different atmosphere from ytd's dinner. maybe also becoz ytd i was quite tired, and still not really feeling well & recovered yet, and although i was quite okay lah, comefortable with the group ytd, i'm much closer to today's group, so had a more fun and yummy, enjoyable dinner!

we bought stingray, rojak, chicken wings, carrot cake, satay, popiah, and we shared them, rounding off with ice kachang (which i dint eat becoz i got sugar cane liao) and jol,sh bought McFlurry. YUM! YUM! haha.

Well, had a very very fruitful day together, having fellowship with 2 great group - family & pri sch friends; learnt how to make bracelet, a hobby i long wanted to have.

Hope to see you people + m.earn next week. Cya!
