just a short post before i'm off on hiatus for a while. :)

Christmas this year has been a very blessed one. :) received v practical presents from everyone. keep it up guys!! :) i do so love the song We Are The Reason by Avalon. but i can't seem to find any download links online! :(

i'm flying off tomorrow & there's lots that i haven't done yet! i need to change money, pack my bag, buy ziploc bags & eye drops. i hope i haven't left anything out.

sch's starting next week. 5 weeks sure flies by pretty fast! at least i got a 3 day week. i'm still debating if i should take electives though. but that means that my 3 day week will be gone. :( my biz law notes and readings are all up already?! the lecturers are fast! took a glance at the course outline & it seems pretty interesting. hope i'll enjoy it! :P only 1 day of sch next week. haha. i think i'll be going to SAV to check out the new sch. saw pictures of it online & i didn't really like it. it seems pretty cold somehow. i still prefer the welcoming atmosphere of SAJC at Malan Rd.

off to pack, pack & pack!

gosh... i'm super beat after Eucharistia! but all in all, it was super fun! due to the fact that quite a lot of my CG ppl couldn't make it, we ended up combining with TP's CG. there were 3 stations in all. It rained for a short while after the 1st station. but thank God that my grp happened to be under the shelter. :) i got to know the NTU peeps quite well during the whole event. most of them are really wacky!! haha. Anil was like totally crazy during the whole event. and he can't scream for nuts.. he'll 'zao sia'. hahah. we had to go swimming in the sea for the 2nd event. it was high tide then and so we took a longer time to swim out. we had to bring back cookies (dry ones) to the shore. the grp with the most number wins. after that, they made us send a rep from each grp to eat the cookies. i heard that 1 grp brought back like 9 cookies and out of that 9, more than half were wet. so it was like super duper salty! the penalty for the final game was damn funny. they had to cross their arms, pull their ears and say " There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ".. :P

we took lots of photos during the event.. will post them up once Amber sends them to me.. :)

most of us were like sooo tired after the event that we could barely stand up during the thanksgiving service after that. i like the 'bling bling' song... :) haha. ade ah.. u know the lyrics to it??? i forgot them already.

ohhhh... guess what? my team came in 3rd for the whole event!! :) NTU A rocks!!!! my CG ppl are like super fun to be with.. hahha. i <3 my CG!!!

off for 3rd service soon..... :)

Here Is Love

Here is love vast as the ocean
Loving kindness as the flood
When the Prince of Life,
Our ransom, shed for us
His precious blood
Who is love, will not remember
Who can cease to sing His praise?

He can never be forgotten
Throughout Heaven's eternal days
On the mount of crucifixion
Fountains opened deep and wide
Through the floodgates
Of God's mercy flowed a vast
And gracious tide.

Grace and love like mighty rivers
Poured incessant from above
And Heaven's peace
And perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love

Come kiss a guilty world in love

just got back from Oi! Sleeping Beauty

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

at the Drama Center. it was definitely a very entertaining play, one of the best that i've been to this year. There were lots of (expected) digs at Singapore. I especially loved the one whereby Singaporeans were seen as Singacorp robots. It's remicient of my JC lit text, Another Place.

"......an imposing creed
of perfection, the ruthless efficiency
of children become architects,engineers,
and planners whose eyes are trained
on visions of tomorrow,missing
these lowly ones who have weighed anchor
in the backwaters and will not stir.
The piling goes on upriver,hard fists
pummelling, ordering the future into shape."


Singaporeans are always rushing, working overtime, pushing and straining to earn more. But these are just ethereal. When it fades, there's a gaping void just begging to be plugged. We need to remember what was it that kept us going before. Not money, nor material objects, but rather, the love of something. Only when you do something you truly love will you be truly happy.

The 3 fairies were just hilarious! imagine 3 men cross dressing, what do u get? a barrel of laughs! I remember them singing some song about them being " happy & gay" (pun fully intended). there was lots of sly humour injected throughout the 2.5 hr show, some of them in Malay. Its too bad that I don't really understand the language though. The kids in the audience provided more laughs as well. This is because Oi! is a very interactive panto. The actors/actresses would ask the audience to join in periodically. In addition, the actors/actresses would come in from the side doors suddenly. I was sitting right beside the doors and i jumped in my seat each time they entered. Also, towards the end of the panto, half the actors/actresses were in the audience jumping and climbing over seats.

I was laughing so much till my sides ached. Special mention goes to Pam Oei,Selena Tan & the 3 fairies for being such entertaining entertainers. :P All in all, it was worth my $38. :) for those who haven't watched it, do go buy the tickets! you won't regret it!!

i really miss the stage sometimes.. esp after watching a play. all those memories just come flooding back. sec sch drama was the best!! i still remember the endless rehearsals we had in the LTs, walking out to buy pizza before rehearsals,irene's bear june (which was the butt of all our jokes),Victoria Theatre.. my very first stage performance, black lipstick(ewwww),makeup,dusty stage curtains,the dim backstage, gossiping together backstage in Victoria Theatre after our performance,waiting our turn in the wings,the memorising of lines,occasional performances on stage in school,the Maria Hertough Riots play,our props,dusty costumes,mimes,tableaux,scripts(writing & re-writing)........

CCHS(M)'s drama club was really like a family. a place where we would let our hair down on Fridays, esp after a long week in sch. I would go to macs with Jan,Toi Goon & Xin Ying after drama for a bite.. really miss those times... SA's drama club can never match up to the camaraderie that we had in CCHS(M)'s drama club.

i miss drama......

service was very good!! and my parents bought the new instrumental album released by my church called Still Waters. :) It's pretty good. haha. after service, i went to Marina Square's K-Box with Pam & Wai Shan. had a fun time there.. :) sang the 'sell house' song quite a few times. the food there was passable, but the only grouse i had was that they took a super long time to serve the food! :( the sound system was quite ok. and we got a plasma TV!!! :)

my thigh is like aching from bowling with Esther & Sean yesterday.. we played mahjong for abt 2 hrs and i got like 2 'zhi mo'! whee... hahaa. can't wait for HK. we are gonna have so much fun playing!!

and Pam & Samuel are gonna bring me on a shopping spree as a b-dae present. ;) i'll be nice and not spend too much. thanks so much!!! :)

i'm co-ordinating 03A31's gathering with becky... will send out the details to u guys soon. it'll probably be a potluck and it will be held at becky's place... errr.. but i'm not exactly sure where it is though.. haha.
