25 Mar

Woke up 6am this morning. Couldn't sleep. Dun know why. This morning have a seminar to attend at St John St Margaret at 9am. Den meeting some of the youths at 7.45am at Simei MRT platform. Ding Yi and Xin Ling came over at abt 7.10am to my house to put their barang barang as there's a stayover tonight at my place. Den being the hospitable me, I make them breakfast. After breakfast, left for Simei MRT. Then took us about an hour to reach Dover MRT station. Suppose to meet Darren, Yvon and Jamie at that time but they were late. Hmmmm. Ai yoh! Then told the rest to go first while i wait for them. By the time reach SJSM, was like 9.10am. Late and worship had started. And only managed to get back seats. Anyway i haven't say what seminar i'm attending. Attending this seminar "10 keys to choosing life partner'' by Pastor Benny Ho. I must say he is indeed a very good speaker. The way he carry his message was humorous but yet straight to the point. Just a quick run thru of the 10 keys.

1) The Wisdom of Seeking Counsel
2) The Principle of Equally Yoked
3) The beauty of Purity
4) The Principle of Shared Inheritance
5) The Presence of Willingness
6) The Key of Prayer
7) The Important value of Kindness
8) The need for Family Blessing
9) The Principle of Timing
10) The Principle of Well

I guess the last 2 points really kept me thinking. Timing. I believe that in God's timing, all things will fall into place. And I believe that God will give the best to me. But many a times, I just simply sit there and wait for God's timing. Is tat good? No in fact it's so wrong not so much in waiting upon God but in that I'm so engrossed in focusing on the timing that i do nothing but just day and night, waiting anxiously. How foolish! And also the principle of well which actually talks abt many characters in the bible found their partners near the well. Well symbolishes community gathering and for us our well is the church. Stay around the 'well' and the right one may appear rite before your eyes. Hmmmm! haha! Well after the seminar went back to Simei, had lunch at KFC and went to church. Was a bit rush for me becoz i agreed to help to lead worship for the English Patient Svc. It is like at 3.15pm and i got back to church at abt 2.30pm. Den after the svc, i'm leading worship at the youths. Den after the worship, there's a meeting with senior pastor. I left half way becoz i was simply too tired. Since 6am i woke up and my mind was dying away. So after that went to NTUC bought some food to cook dinner. Some of the youths staying over. Watch soccer, play majong, talk some rubbish, den before you know it, it was nearly 1am. Lights off. Lionel and Ariz slept in my room. Darren fitted just nice in my living room sofa. Xin Ling, Wen Yuan, Yvon and Joanne squeezed in my parent's bed. I and Ding Yi slept on mattress in the dining room. Yawnnn!

26 Mar

Woke up at 7am. Saw a figure sitting down in the living room. (not wearing spects) so was wondering who it was. It was Xin Ling. Apparently she got jostled out of the bed at around 4am den end up sitting and sleeping on one of the single seat sofa. SO poor thing. Den quickly got up, woke the rest up and prepare breakfast. Scrambled egg and picnic chicken with bread and milo. Suppose to leave home by 7.50am. End up leaving at around 8.05am. As usual someone taking HER own sweet time. Haiz. Dun know wat to say. The perfect Melancholy in me was getting impatient but den the Peaceful Phlegmatic side of me is telling me to be erhhhh.... be peaceful. haha! So reached church at abt 8.20am den some of us Joanne, Wen Yuan, Darren and Yvon joined some of the adults in the morning prayer. So glad they join in becoz this morning prayer is very important. It is kinda like the spiritual foundation of the Sunday's svc. Really hope they will come to pray more often.
After svc, waited for William and Lydia to go for lunch. Went to Sakura to eat. Then chit-chat a bit and shared about my life and wat was going on. Haha! Then rush to AHS for the Street Soccer tournament. Darren, daniel, james, colin, jason and me playing. Our first match will be the tournament 5th match. However after 3rd match, rained den stop playing for a while. Den resume match and our turn, we went in with style. The first thing the opponents commented was, "Woah! They all so big sized one!" Haha! Not too sure if he meant it big-tough or big-flabby. Hmmm! Then next we had some pre-shooting. First shot, i make a diving saved. Trying to pyschologically affect the opponents. Den next Daniel took a blistering shot at me. I tried to parry the ball with both hands but it was so strong, it pierce thru my parry and smack right into my face. Kinda twisted my right wrist. Den next Darren rammed a shot at me while i was not looking. Hit right into my left shoulder. Power man! I think by then, the opponents were pyschologically affected. Then we started the match. We were doing fine, having good possession and a few attempt. They had a few fair chance. One shot parried by me and thkfully, it hit the pole and rolled away from the line. But never did we know, a quick attack on the right by the opponents and a bit of luck, they squeezed the ball pass me at the near pole at a tight angle. We were a bit taken a back but we weren't going to give up. We fought stonger and increased our fire power. Finally, Jason got his chance and sliced the ball pass the keeper at the far pole. Beautiful. And minutes later, Jason added his No.2 with a volley. Superb. And the game ended. 2-1. Brillant. Haha! Then after the nextt match, the rain started to pour again and the match was postponed to 9 Apr. And guess what , i can't play. Church got AGM and definitely AGM is more important. Pity i have to say but i'm sure the team will still do pretty fine without me. Den another bad news. Uncle Bryan say the 5pm soccer, cancelled. So xian. Haiz. So they ferried us to Tanah Merah MRT and went to TM to eat dinner. Everybody was stoning. Haha! So after dinner, all went home. Reached home at abt 6pm den sleep until 9.30pm. Haha. WHat a day! And dad and mum is coming home tmr. Hehe! Quite fun to be home alone but den also realised a lot of housework to do.
