i'll figure this out in a bit

Went for my review at Dr Melinda's today. She said I am on the right track, and expects me to be flawless in Dec. Damn, I've just spent another big bulk of kachings which sums up to 1k already. It better be good. Haha.

So abs accompanied me to spend some time, before joining Yau, Pete and Ham for brekky. Dad came to pick me up and told me that he's just settled a deal with CYC's parents. I was so excited,  cuz CYC is such a niceeeee lad! This brings mr back to the fond memories I have from high school, from J3. 

During the first week of school, I was being my usual self laughing like a mad woman, and getting hyped up with my friends like SK, Celine, Nic Tan, ah Heng maybe?, Leong and CYC. I asked, "What do u want to do in the future?" "做警察吧。。" "这样就要好好读书!" and I think I said something that goes along, "做警察就要保护我” “你要好好读书,要做警察保护我ah,不是meh?" That's how sparks flew LOL. I sat with him once, and I'll always rmb his demeanor. He always has his left hand supporting his head that he often tilts downwards, and his eyes would swing around and occasionally left, to check someone out. Haha. And I rmb sitting really close to the edge of the table cuz he was just sooo close to me. Haha. And whenever my stationery fell to the floor, he'd be the first to reach for them, and quickly returned them to me. Haha. Once in a while, I'd pick them up and he would too, and there'd be accidental skinship, LOL (hahahah), and then I would cringe and go backwards, and I'd be like "OK, wo lai na zhe ge, ok?"and then he'd be ''ah, ok, ok."hahahaha.

Another one that makes it through to my memory bank, was the time he decided to tell me how he felt about someone. So, me being the usual loud and weird me, was weirding my day away. Throughtout the day, slowly news came to my ears saying, "Hey, did you know that he's plannig to tell you today?" I was like "Ö.O, WHOA."He usually reaches school really early in the morning, whereas I, later. And I saw him sitting in one of the chairs, having one of his arm crossing over his chest and another supporting his hand which creasing his forehead all day long. Haha, it was really evident. So initially I didn't know, but slowly news spread I guess, and more and more people came to tell me about it - but I don't think he realised cuz he was too engrossed in his ''plan". And so the bell came close to rinigng signalling school's end, and I remember seeing him standing somewhere around the classroom, (  i think it was next to the whiteboard, close to the door - pls excuse such random position if you think it is, cuz my class was so rowdy, everyone's just everywhere, most of the time') with the same position (hand rubbing his forehead), and my heart palpitated quickly. I usually laze around and take my sweetest time while packing my books, and usually leave only around 3.45 or later, just when most of everyone has left, then I leave the classroom slowly, strolling my way through. That day, I remember shoving most of my textbooks quickly into the blue Adidas bag Anna got me (from her forum trip in Lahad Datu), and then he started going, "Christabelle!" And I went "Sylvia!" So it was like "Christabelle!""Sylvia!""Christabelle! Christabelle!""Sylvia! Sylvia! Sylvia!"and then I ran away quickly and left him in the class room.

Sylvia reprimanded me for not allowing him to do it, because I heard he's been very stressed about it, and thought about it for a veryyy long time. And that he was smoking his stress away, dayem, I felt so bad. Then a few days later during Moral Class, while I was frolicking my way through to the teacher's desk to hand in some work, as I turned around, he was in front of my face with his ears all red and his head down. Then he rubbed his right ear and said, "Christabelle ah, 我其实想要跟你讲一样东西了很久“ I decided to hear him out, feeling all nervous inside. Then I was like, "Ah, 讲啦讲啦" "其实我已经喜欢你了很久,不过我希望我们还可以继续做好朋友啦" Then I think I said, "Oh, dang ran dang ran."And then I think I said thank you and shook his hand and walked away to, supposedly to my girlfriends. Haha. And from what I've heard, vaguely, I think even though it didn't work out, but he was happy and relieved that he did it. =D

This reminds me of sometimes (if I'm not mistaken) if I skip recesses and decide to stay in class, he'd stay back too from his group of bros to accompany me, I think la. Haha. And once when we were doing this project on Geography or something, while deciding the group member's list, there was only one spot left open. And Lelong and him were pushing it to one another, "OH you can have it" "Oh you can have it, cuz I've spent enough time with her on **something else** or cuz I've been in the same group with her on another project ady. HAHA. :P ANd this also happened once where we went to watch a movie in Growball with Celine, Sylvia them all, and Celine shoved me to be in between em both, but I ended up sitting in between the girls, also because I can't hear if I sit on the left, so I felt it would've been awkward if I couldn't hear whichever of em were talking to me. Haha. I rmb CYC's gaze each time he talks to me, he pays full attention haha, he's such a nice chap.

He's got this natural sense of humour, and he's always got the nicest stories to tell. I rmb him telling me and Sylvia how he spends time with his cat, and he sleeps with it, and sometimes the cat pees at home or on his bed, and he ought to clean it. and how his cat scratched him. and how his car almost flew out of the car, and he tried to save it. Not sure to believe it or not, but it sent me and SK cracking up like madness. And also, since CYC is so chinese, hahah there was once I should be explaining where my sister was studying, it's Goldcoast abut he said 'huang jin hai an' instead, and i couldn't understand him nor could he understand me. It was till a third party came in and joined our convo baru told me that they're the same =.=

I remember feeling odd and a lil sad inside cuz he seemed to stop talking to me and ignored me during PMR or UEC time. However, a year later, I still hear people saying that he still has a crush on me, but I thought it was barely plausible since he doesn't even talk to me. I rmb on Valentine's Day 2012, I foundt his box of Belgian Seashell Chocolates in my desk. I looked around, wondered who it belonged to or who it was from since there was no note. I rmb being extra cautious, because previously I found smth really creepy in my desk - smth with a note attached which told me to follow what it says or smth creepy like a bomb will happen or smth. Anywho, I was just really generous and gave it all away and finished it that period itself. It was only till this year's V'Day when me, Nat, Alvin and Roland were otw to Chee Ren's open house, that I realised from Alvin it's from him. After 2 years of mystery XDXD haha

I know it's not the best idea that I'm feeling excited while chatting with you. And that I continously wear that smile whenever my phone vibrates. But I'm so glad I got to know you better this time. :) cheers

company of a wise man pt.2

I really appreciate the meeting we had through dinner last night. I really, really do. I was really excited about it, and I had a really good vibe about it, (speaking of good vibe, this is the real good vibe) and I was really excited to meet Ps Yoong. I knew that he was gonna minister to me, but I just really didn't know till what degree as to what I was going to expect. His sermon on Friday night was so true. I was really engrossed and had my head fixated to the screen/front most of the time, and every word he said went straight into my head, hopefully my heart too. I was even a lil bothered when I noticed my friends fiddling around, not paying full attention, - like yeah, till that extent lol. :P

Ps Yoong started his sharing by saying that everyone is different and special in their own way. First I thought, that was just an opener of his sermon, by first encouraging others and so on. He went on and gave the example of a girl who failed to continue her studies due to a medical condition, and hence felt worthless - but that's not true. He gave another testimony of an individualistic kid with no friends, and how nobody thought he was worth much and was simply undertaken by everyone, except for his parents. Because the only people who can see with the eyes of love, are his parents - those who really see the good in him. But because he was clustered by all the negative thoughts, nobody else could really see him at all. Ps then decided to stick his neck out to find him a girl as he thought, what he needs, is a woman who'd nurture this man back to life. And 10 days after being arranged to drive the girl to school everyday, they got married 4 months later and are a lovely, young couple.

He shared the essence of the feminine touch that every woman ought to have, and never lose. Men are born to be egoistic, and women are born to be submissive to the husband. When you rear a goldfish, if you don't feed it regularly because you think you're too busy already with kids and work, it'd be illogical to expect a fat happy swimming goldfish a week later. So, remember to feed your goldfish.

Also, he mentioned the likeness of the older generation, to always scold their kids about how the kids are ungrateful, that they have never lived the life they did before with only 10 cents in their pocket, how tough their lives was. The idea was that parents should not scold their kids like that because their kids will never be able to fit into their shoes, no matter how much they are being told of the same story. People will never completely understand what it's like to be a parent, until you are a parent yourself. When you hear it, you only know in part, but then 10 years down the road, you begin to know fully.

It's interesting and odd at the same time how I can barely remember what Ps had shared on Friday night, because I was really listening by heart but I can't seem to recall the points he shared. >.<

-

So we had dinner last night at Xia Zhong Xia at Hilltop. Dad came to pick me up after going to see sunset with Ps, and I was running to the car like usual, a lil frivolously, forgetting that someone else was in the car. We exchanged some casual greetings, like saying how we've never met throughout his 12 years of visiting our church, and also where I study etc, before going to pick mum and then skedaddle to dinner. Upon sitting down at the dinner table, Ps asked me if I were confident with my results, I said no while explaining how I am quite poor in Econs, but oh well. He replied with, "You're different," or  rather you're different from others.

*I then shared about my worries and also my unanswered questions all along - whether Taylor's is the way to go, if Law is the degree to take, disappointments from scholarship rejections (the ass-kicking processes), how I often get disappointed from scholarship rejections, and thoughts that'd cross my mind once in a while is why did somebody else seems to get it so effortlessly, whereas it is not the same for me. And also how I am terrible with making decisions - I prefer being thrown a task, rather than having the option to choose because I know that I would be able to learn from whichever option I choose, how asking 10 people don't really make the difference I needed but instead added more confusion, confusion that freedom of choice brings (full of alternatives), how Anna's such a go-getter, and how her advice based on such driven personality affects my decisions.... just like that lo.

He then said, "that's why I said you're different. You are different. I felt in my heart from the beginning to tell you that. You're different from your sister, and don't compare yourself to her. Don't make her the yardstick you have to measure up to. And also, don't let the world's standard define you." At that moment, I felt pretty astounded. Because though it's cliché (lol, because it's true *rolls eyes*), and though I saw it coming, but I could feel him speaking to my life, and instantly peace came, the baggage was shed-off midway, and I felt special again.

He then pointed out the example of the girl with no degree from the night before, and also that career's not an easy thing to decide, that nobody ever knows best, and I just gotta decide based on what I know at the moment, at my age, my current understanding. Today, he told my dad, "you gotta talk to her about what she understands right now at her age". Then, my mum began sharing how I was a miracle child - due to my ability to heal without sophisticated medical treatments from the Kawasaki disease when I was 4 years of age. That was a testimony that mum shared a few months back in church, and that was how mum was introduced to church and began to know God more and more.

Also, we chatted about which church I attend in KL, and he said that Acts church is a good place to be. About how the people there are very simple people, how they are straightforward, how the church is not too sophisticated. I told him that CH was pretty intimidating since I didn't have close friends, but that I love Acts cuz it's so warm and I actually grow there.  He said that's good.

At some point of dinner, dad was saying how he felt like God's timing seemed really uncannily aligned. And my dad isn't usually overly spiritual, so this coming out needs taking note of, lol. He shared about how our lives would never have been the same if it weren't from knowing Christ. When I was due in a few weeks time, it was around December and hence they just decided the date to be Christmas and named me, "Christabelle". And I was born, and then slowly led my parents to church after being invited by Abs. At some point, Ps also shared about maybe God knows that I'm currently in a dilemma, and he sent someone to talk to me about it. Amen.

At another point, he said that I am a sensitive persons. And I was agreeing with full attention and said, "You know I sometimes call myself a 'Bottle of Emotions' (secretly hoping that I didn't sound lame lol), because I have a lot of feelings. Even the smallest things move me. And since I have a lot of thoughts, and it's not like I can really tell someone about it, so I blog about it just to make sure I don't forget anything."

He thinks I'm a very relational person, a people person.

I also told him how I really like to make friends, and I enjoyed it very much during my time in high school. And that my ultimate intention is to really, just help people in the future.

Putting these thoughts into words, is something I never thought would materialize. Especially not in front of my parents, because they would have objected for me to have doubts, since they can't understand where I'm coming from. And I can't blame them for that, because I myself can't even understand where it's all coming from. All these unanswered questions, I never knew how I'd be able to get the perfect answer, and also constantly worrying if the path I'm going is the right path at all. From asking people to people, what I get is only opinions after advices, I'd never be able to discern which is right, and which is not, or rather which is right for me or not. And that's what I've been struggling with for a very long time. Meeting Ps Yoong felt really important. And after dinner last night, it felt like God sent someone from heaven to give me answers - real proper, Godly answers. I feel so much at ease.

I used to feel ashamed when I wasn't able to perform as well in sports, public speaking, singing or anything that expects me to measure up to jie's standards. I'm never good in drawing, singing and for other things, I'm usually average? or a lil above, but never something that people would identify as, boom, TALENT, I never felt worthless though I haven't figured out my talents/what I'm good at, because I know that God has a plan for me. But, I just never knew what it is, and it felt like there'd always be this void, unfulfilled.   But after dinner last night, I feel like I'm an extraordinary person God set aside for a very special purpose, and it's got to do with reaching out to people. I feel like I am going to achieve great things, and great things for God alone.

*
Today, Ps Yoong shared about how sometimes God uses the simplest thing into a blessing. Simple things that bring in the reality of God. (how he texted a guy from Singapore to say that "I am with you", and it was at the precise moment where he was desperately seeking God, due to stressing to complete a project 100%).

He also mentioned something about outer beauty vs. inner beauty. When someone has a beautiful dog, no matter how beautiful it is, when it bites you, you won't want to keep the dog anymore. Everything goes back to the heart.

God uses the simplest ways to bless.
WISDOM is essential.
The inner beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit
*The feminine touch
Nobody's life is outside of God's hand
Too often we know the Bible but not the author
All marriages are hard work. You need to complete the house before you can enjoy it.



thank you for blessing me.

for reminding me of what I'm worth.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She is a very human person.

As my dad told him stories about me 'counselling' my friends, he said,

I can see that she has no expectations when she helps people, she doesn't expect to get any returns.

Christabelle thinks that what you said were exactly right about her.

I hope she doesn't think that you've spoken to me about her before, and hence she thought I said correctly.

Of course not, she knows.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Christabelle, it is my pleasure to meet up with you and family. Everything is done in God's timing. I really felt God's loving heart towards you and I have no shadow of doubt that He is more than well pleased with who you are. If I can say this--you are a real person who mean what you say and there is no pretense or exaggeration in you. God has His plan for you that is totally different from what the world call success. You will be successful in His eyes. You are a very relational person and you will be successful with people. Peace be to you. He will reveal more in future. People will want to gather around you. Take care.

company of a wise man pt.1

You're different.

- Is there anything else that you want to share with me?
(when walking to the car after dinner)

 I can see your heart. I can see that you are a people person, very relational. It's very interesting. 

'gotsa good heart', maybe?

It's okay if you don't have high achievements/recognitions, but you will have a high achievement in doing God's will.

Anna's very gifted with intelligence, whereas you are gifted with your heart.

You are a nurturer.

You don't want shallow relationships, you want deep meaningful relationships.

You are very sensitive.

You think very deep.

I can see that you are very different from your sister. You're very relational.

Just wait and let God's surprises take you. You will do well for God.

You want deep, meaningful relationships.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- My results are coming out on the 12th.

Are you confident?

- Nah, I sorta struggled with Economics.

You're different. Like I shared last night, everyone is special in their own way, so you are different too, and are special in your own way. Just like the girl who failed to continue her studies due to a medical condition and felt worthless due to a lack of certificate.

Like I said from the very beginning, you're different. I just had to tell you that. You're different from your sister, and do not let the world's standard define you. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You don't really want recognition.

This truth in this struck me dumbfounded for a second, and I then continued by explaining how when people ask me what would I want to specialise in the future, whether I want to venture into criminal law and go to court, I'd say that truth be told, I'd prefer to be the mediator and let the problems come to a rest, instead of taking sides and finding loopholes in law just to knock somebody else down.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Even though you're walking the path of God, but it may not be a straight line, you know"

"I'm saying the truth, I'm not just saying this to make you happy"

I felt bad cuz we seemed really hyped up, and when we got there, it seemed like we were the only one talking, really loudly. I was just excited cuz i met my boobs. Ooh and Daphne drove with my one hand on the brakes. hahaha, exciting much, it was my first, and her first time driving out by herself mabeh? haha

Zack shared about having clicks in life, and how important friends are, to shape and mould your personality. It was fun cheesying up with derp, HAHA. and then I met Wilfen! He said he went to see liang moi in church, and that I should be an actor instead of a lawyer cuz my nerves have gone wrong. >.< Bobo said I looked so good oh, which was rather odd. :)

Tuesday

Went out with these people today. Bana was late for 2 hours LOL, =.= and then had a quarrel in the car because she's a newbie driver who couldn't gather her focus and confidence in driving after being idle from it for just a few months, a couple maybe? We dropped by school, bumped into Ah Wei and Mr Lee, and Moral Cikgu :) It was nice to go back to my once wonderland~ Went to Chef Tan's but it was closed and bumped into Zack, Queenie and Yau and the twins at October Cafe. While I was saying hi to gor, these bewbies ditched me and said they didn't wanna go. Oh and we had lunch at erm, oh! The Peak Market.... Carbonara was... okay... :) Bana's gear sounded like it had a hard time while we were driving uphill The Peak, which we then realised was because Bana forgot to release her brakes after leaving STTSS XDXDXD Joke-of-eternity. And she mistaken a building for a ship, and got me and willie wondering how on earth can the ship land there, was it the size of the ship or was it the sea? :/ turns out it's just bananie going bananas. We went to YOYO Lintas afterwards, and we chatted about MY haters, and they both were so nice in comforting me by saying they've got haters too :D which was each other -.- how great. Then, we went for dinner LOL. Wojamama was great, cuz the train was appetizing. Current was cut off for a while, and bananie decided to ditch us back into our cribs.

Toodlicious~

Everyone's got a story to tell...


Herrow world, so I just finished watching the ever long series of YongSeo's WGM. Wow, it consisted of 51 long episodes, which certainly was enjoyable to the very bit, but the downside was that it was too time-consuming, and when I get hooked, it's so difficult for me to focus my attention to anything else cuz my heart just gets so heavy by the thought of it. It is honestly, bad. But I really enjoyed watching this couple.

~

[Photo of diary]

Watching this reminds me of the time I first watched in back in end of 2011 - 2012, and I remember how Seohyun inspired me just at the very first episode. I love her ethics, her manners, character and personality. I remember starting this lovely diary I've got from Typo, pasted a photo of Seohyun, and also listed down my resolutions, and areas of improvement [I'd like to go back to that].
 It blew my mind how her inspiration was Ban Ki Moon, rather than the conventional prediction by the norm to be other rockstars and entertainers. She was the inspiration behind buying Sophie's World, and she inspired me to carry my bag filled with the little things which seem trivial, but are significant - water bottle, diary, book and necessities of other sort. I really like how she has her own mentality towards things, and her own principle of behaviours towards events. She takes her own stand, she stands firm. But at the same time, she is still very humble, and always goes around with an open heart - always willing to learn something from everything she does. She is just so humble and truthful - and that really moves me, to be more like that. Lower myself, with an open expectation. Pride is not of essence.

Alrighty, that's the part about Seohyun. A reason why I really enjoy YongSeo is because from my perspective, their relationship centres around honesty and respect. Seohyun's introduced as an occasionally awkward person especially when it comes to social relationship with men, and also she has never dated, and the whole idea of engaging into a boy-girl relationship. She is fresh, pure and young. She actually shot a question asking Yonghwa on the first episode, "What's the difference between liking and loving someone?" On the other hand, Yonghwa's character seems to be really goofy and witty. He's definitely a player when it comes to playing, and a hard worker when it comes to work. Even though he's considered more knowledgeable in this area, and also more experienced, he never took advantage of the girl, or attempted to taint the girl's purity. They started a relationship just like a fresh, young sprout, and just lets nature take its own course, without forcing any sort of presumed social norm into catalyzing the relationship. The moment they first held hands was so magical! :D haha.

And this really speaks to me, because I feel like I can relate to the girl. I haven't dated anyone yet, and this seems to be my ideal type of relationship. Why of course, this relationship won't completely resemble a future one I'd most definitely have, but it's good to 'explore my options'. Having said all this though, there's constantly a hot debate as to whether Yongseo was ever real, and there'll always be biases which support them, or detest them. Whichever, I've decided to just trust my own judgment cuz honestly, nobody knows at all. Their on-screen chemistry is just too much for me to bear, I can't help but melt into a puddle even at very trivial scenes of affection, so I'd like to believe real sparks were there. But then, when you are dating someone with cameras all around, it fishes the artificiality, and with all the scrutiny around, it raises doubts as to how genuine what we see actually is. Anywho, I just really hope that some day in the future, be it announced or unannounced, they seem like a perfect pair to me and I really hope they'd get the chance to blossom. I'd really like to believe it's real. (:

~




On a sidenote, these people are so talented and dedicated!!!!! Seohyun included. Wow. I'm just so mesmerized by Yonghwa's talents of songwriting, singing with his husky lead vocals as well as performing. He's very charismatic and so innovative. I love how his songs such as Banmal Song and I'm Sorry have varying lyrics for the first chorus and the last chorus, and also different verses for first and second parts of the songs. [woots, sorry I don't speak musical] I'm really captivated by songs like these cuz I feel they suggest more depth into conveying the message behind the song rather than just similar choruses throughout the song. I love how much improved the final Banmal Song came out to be, the intro started with a light and pleasing beat, which intrigues me to hop along to the beat of this carefree music - what a tune!!! :D :P And I'm Sorry is great as well, so catchy!!! Love it. As well as the I'm A Loner. I haven't got to hear more of their other songs, but I'm pretty much convinced that they sound as terrific (: Meanwhile, Jonghyun's got a mesmerizing baritone voice topped with such great looks, and Minhyuk seems down to earth and cute, as well as Jungshin who seems approachable and humble.

Honestly speaking, of course there'd be days where I sometimes wish I had talents like singing, dancing, or playing instruments and sometimes I'd really dream to be in Seohyun's shoes, or even born in America, but I've gotta keep in mind to keep my feet grounded and be grateful for all I've got. I mean, who doesn't want gorgeous houses, dazzling wardrobes, lotsa money. But I suppose I've gotta learn that life is so much more than just these abundant supply of basic necessities, and whatever beyond is so much more meaningful.

Thanks for teaching me humility and hard work.

gorge. goddess.

Here's some kickass videos to share with you guys (:

Happiness is my middle name :D

Today's been a great great day!!!

groupie < 3

Went to Pulau Sapi this morning with the girls. Initially the girls worried if we'd be able to make it due to the heavy downpour last night. I had trouble waking up this morning, which is so rare, but then when my mind gathered consciousness and my thoughts were carried to the beautiful island sights, whoa, excitement filled me and I woke up instantly :D I tried to do the same to infect Abs so that she'd wake up too. She had a flu >. < ommo

Anywho, Fiona Jayne and Chloe came over to my crib while waiting for me to get ready as well as Abs. haha I'll never forget the very amusing sight where the unzipped bag revealed a half-full bag that halfly consisted of a toilet roll XD Weather seemed clear, and we 浩浩荡荡 地出发了. :D We had some egg-mayo sandwich that Kakak prepared, thankfully, cuz it was supposed to me be, haha, but then kakak added some mangoes inside which made the sandwiches all the mightier. :D :D :D so yumz. We met Claire and Sher at the jetty, and waited for Able and Aaron to come. I bumped into gorgie Lowa with her friends like Liza and ChristieAnne and we exchanged a convo :D [USA - engineering - architecture] Just like Van, I wish we had more time spent together, cuz I know it'd be so epic!

first spot!

Arriving at the island, we settled at the other side first cuz of the crowd, but then switched back to the main beach when we realised it was indeed more interesting, lol. Played some volleyball, swam a bit, fed the fishies - and were told off by the workers around. Went to ride the World's Longest Island-to-Island Zipliner which lasted for 13 seconds, but the wait took at least 1.5 hours. Gosh, so time-consuming. The view was gorgeous though, so beautiful - all green and clear! Went back to meet the rest of the group. Took some photos, played with water, lost a snorkel then went back to the jetty.

the long wait...
waited for... this. worthwhile, u think?

Claire and the boys left early, and the rest of us went around town looking for San Nyuk Mian. As we found a beautiful parking, and were roaming around like tourists in our super casual outfit - top over bikini kind, aw man, san nyuk mian finished selling :( so we detoured to Cititel then to Derpina's crib before parking at Lintas for the all time almighty San Nyuk Mian :D Got a cake from Lady Bon Bon (?) then returned to my crib for a quick shower then off we went to youth together. Abigail almost knocked me dead D: Isaac was the sole witness, who simply stared, just fyi.

All our eyes were so heavy, and it was obvious through our eyebags #fascinatedbythecourseofnature :D Sharon shared about being big people or small people as well as her life story. I saw so many familiar faces, but then couldn't connect the dots from church to these faces and then when I realised they were my juniors from high school, I was so excited!! :D :D :D ngeheh. Furthermore, I saw Sean and Hau Ket and boom, I was like fireworks blasting everywhere. I met Alexx Yap, Kennie Mau and Mickey, Iannn Ho from high school. Oh, and Jeremyz too! Our convo went like, "yer, why didnt you say hi?!"   "walao, i didn't see you, i'd definitely say hi if i did!!!" and they took a groupie without me :( anywho, then I conversed with Hau Ket and he's so funny and witty, drama queen. It was really entertaining :D And Sean was there too. Chatted with my future hsemate and sighed "Why is my life like this?" while acknowledging him as my future housemate. All jokes :D Yep. I suppose that's it, it was good enough to make me go ballistic lol.

Then I played with Chloe i think. Don't know what I did but I laughed like a mad woman. And it was just all good all good. All smiles. Oh! Throughout dinner, I caught up with Alfred and managed to get a better hold of what Van's been doing. It was nice. And I chatted with Ricky before too, and found out that he's going to a theological school in Dallas to study music :) how lovely. Michelle sent me home after and we had a good chat about life :)

that's all. toodlicious~
