Happy National Day! Singapore!

Woke up to a nice National Day! The day where Singapore enters into the 41th year of her existance. Just like israelites entering the promise land after 40 years in the desert, i believe that Singapore is entering into her promised destiny. The antioch of asia. how cool... i could feel the excitement in the spiritual realm. it's just so thick with God's presence.

It was missy krystal butler's birthday today! a big group of us went down to her house to surprise her and also to spend some time with her and her mum. it was so funny! jiahao and i arrived at 2pm and they were already getting ready some stuff to surprise krystal with. balloons were the norm and the flowers were a plus! each of us actually wrote something for her and tied it to a stalk of flower which we placed all over her house. it was such a nice and pleasant view. so sweet... she came home at about 3.30pm and we had a wild time surprising her. oh well... not so much a surprise but i'm sure she was glad that we were there. haha... food was fabulous! (especially the curry tao pok! and the ben & jerry's ice cream too!) it was a nice time. old memorises coming back...

happy birthday krystal!

other crazy times...



oh well the afternoon was spent in krystal's house. a group of us left for justin's house after that. we spent some time doing foosball and justin's taylor. it feels good. jiahao and i sent the girls to marina south (they were going for steamboat buffet with classmates but we wished them luck as by the time we got there, the place was packed with people. not a single sight of a empty table!) and headed home after that.

got home and decided not to play bassie out. (the story goes back to krystal's house where we talked about playing mahjong at the wongs residence.) took a long bus ride to toh yi. watched the ending of the national day parade, played mahjong and had a good zhi char dinner packed from the zhi char store at S11. stayed till 11.30 and caught the second last bus home with xiang.

so the big questions. what's so exciting about today? well, many of us are so caught up with programs that we totally forgot about time with friends isn't focused on the activity but more of the relationships that are being build through it. we always need to understand that although programs are the things that brings people together, we must know that the program is not always the most important. just like when we are young, playing with our own toys are always fun but when friends are included, it's always a memorable one. i get excited whenever i get to spend time with my close friends because those are really fun times! not just because of the things that we do or the program, but because we know that when we are together, there is nothing to hide. you can just be childish for all i care but i'll still love you the same! we all be kids when we are together. it's just so precious. so so so precious.

Quote Of The Day
how you spend your time with your friends determine the level of friendship you have with them.
