blessed Christmas

so much to thank God for...the past few days have been hectic but well-spent : ) been able to spend time with ppl i love...and cherish.

24th dec
spent the whole day writing cards, wrapping presents, doing some packing at home (cos it's in a horrible mess) and met up with eve to buy presents. really thank God everything was settled on time again this year! haa...told myself tt next year, i shall start shopping for Christmas presents in june! : )

went for Christmas eve service at church and carolling on our roof gdn. tot the countdown was pretty cool. at 12 midnite, uncle john sounded our church bell, loud enough to announce to the whole neighbourhood tt it's Christmas day! after everything ended, quite a no. of ppl came over to my place for the usual Christmas stayover : ) who came over this year: dear, joanne, fiona, jaime, eve, mag, ric, alvin, nelson, the 2 davids & ss. thank God for a really wonderful time spent with them : )


25th dec

we watched anor vcd (windstruck) when we woke up and they left when my family & i had to go over to my uncle's place for my cousin's birthday celebration. was a pretty packed day. went over to khinmun's home & was glad to have met up with my sec sch friends : )

eve, mag & i went down to breko, hv. shortly after joshua joined us, i had to leave for family dinner and thank God, it was also in hv! haa...and i actually met up with jemuel : ) couldn't recognise him cos the last time i saw him, we weren't even in poly yet! anyway, jemuel & i ended up chilling with eve, mag, jeremy, joel & his fren at breko till 12 plus...was real glad jemuel drove & gave us a lift home...thanks jemuel!


26th dec

went to church in the morning for our last youth service of the year. was really disappointed when i was only told in the morning tt dad was flying off in the afternoon. but anyway, i had lunch with dear, fiona, mag, eve & surprisingly, joshua & joel : )


i spent the whole afternoon at the police stn. this lorry almost crashed into us and even threatened us to watch out when we were on our way to see dad off at the airport...well, long story so i shall not puke it all out here. but i just wanna thank God everything's settled now. i guess this whole saga wasn't a bad thing actually cos kor & i talked today.

met dear, mag and joel at a ktv and for the first time, i met paul who was there too! haa...i've heard so much abt this guy from ppl arnd me and well, i've finally seen him in person. pretty friendly guy, with a God-given talent. indeed God has really blessed with him with a wonderful voice : )


m glad i made it to grandma's home anyway : ) i used to tink we should either eat out or have the whole family come over for dinner so grandma wouldn't hafta cook. after a conversation with one of my aunties, i've changed this lil perspective of mine. grandma prolly finds it a joy to cook for all her children & grandchildren, esp when she sees them enjoying her cooking : ) besides...it's not forever tt we'd get to eat her cooking...m really so thankful to God for grandma...i really am.


anyway, thank God tt dad has safely arrived in vietnam. can't wait for chinese new year...a.k.a. his next trip back.
