KL trip
m so glad to be home. i really thank God for bringing me home safely. believe it or not...i missed home. and the ppl around me. anyway, m not gonna go into great details abt my trip...but here's just some stuff worth remembering, or rather, simply those tt i remembered.

arrived in KL around 3+ in the afternoon. checked into ancasa hotel. was really impressed by lydia's ability to lead the whole grp of us (melissa, jiahui, yenting, sally, kherwei, darryl, zacky, fabian, aaron) from golden mile complex, singapore, all the way to our hotel in malaysia. without her, we'd prolly have been lost. thank God for lydia : ) had bak kut teh for dinner with the whole grp, and if m not wrong, tt was prolly the first and last time we sat together as a group for a meal. celebrated jiahui & zacky's birthday. was sitting on the floor of yenting's hotel room and felt the hotel swaying. kept asking melissa to stop shaking the bed cos i was leaning against it. but realised it wasn't her. fabian came into the room and as he stood there, i saw him swaying. darryl said tt tmr's headlines would prolly be about some earthquake somewhere, but we didn't have to wait till tmr. i saw it on the news when i was back in my room. just felt really protected by God...

God prolly put me on a trip with these 4 guys from school to make me realise how i've been taking the church guys i've grown up with for granted, and most imptly, how gentlemanly my church guy friends are. suddenly, i really missed them a lot and wanted so much to tell them how much i thank God for putting them into my life.
anyway, had a really good breakfast. lydia brought melissa, jiahui, sally & i to a nice place for tim sum. finally met up with jielin for the first time since we arrived in KL.

woke up early to walk over to the nearby Macs with melissa & jiahui for breakfast. boy, the milkshake was horrible. anyway, we did lots of shopping. really a lot. i was really tired. was a lil bored becos m really not the kind who can stand staying in a shop for too long. but yeah...thank God the shopping's all over and m happily sitting at my com typing away... :D
anor incident just made me miss my church guy friends even more...anyway, i spoilt kor's canon ixus 500 when my bag dropped on the toilet floor. was really mad cos it wouldn't have happened if the hooks in their toilets weren't so lousy (it was spoilt! argh!). was asking God desperately why He allowed such a thing to happen to me. finally calmed down and asked tt something good was gonna come out of it. it sure did. kor said it's okay (and when i got home, he didn't give me the scolding i so deserved). in short, i saw the compassionate & forgiving side of my older bro. thank God for tt.
anyway, jielin, sally & i went to the eatery beside our hotel to get ramly burgers for a few of us. it was yummy. also tried 'luk luk' at a roadside stall beside the hotel...boy, it was great : )

the bus had some problems and we were stuck in yong peng - this food centre or some rest stop in malaysia, really far from JB - and spent almost 2 hours waiting on the bus. 1 bus driver offered to drive us back to singapore on the condition tt we paid anor 3 ringgit. no way, i was asking him why should we bear the consequences of a problem we didn't create. prayed abt it, and thank God, we got to get onto a bus tt was willing to take us back to singpapore. felt real sian tt we had to take such a lousy bus when we paid for a good one, but eventually realised tt i should be grateful i even got to get on to anor bus instead of waiting for anor few hours there.
i really thank God for bringing me home...i really am. i wouldn't say tt this has been a great trip, but i thank God for the wonderful time i spent with melissa, jiahui, sally, lydia & jielin. and of cos, i thank God for the many lessons learnt on this trip.
