New Experience, Complicated Feelings, New Goal
Yeah! Finally have the time to blog two posts in October. However, I'm going to get busy with my interim report that I need to submit during mid Nov. Still praying hard that I can complete the report before the deadline. Don't worry, I'll be following the deadline closely.
Happy 19th Birthday to Charmaine whoose birthday falls on the 21st Oct! Don't worry, you will get your birthday gift from me soon. I'm just finding time to get your present and taking time to get the best present for you. So wait patiently ok? I still remember you! Haha..
New experience, guess what? I went to hospital for overnight ALONE on 21st Oct! Haha.. Don't think that I'm crazy to actually do that without reasons. My grandma was admitted to hospital for an operation and that is why I dawn over the hospital to look after her without letting her know until the next morning. It's not scary to overnight in the hospital actually. It's pretty cool and calm knowing that Jesus is always with me.
On the 24th Oct, it's on Hari Raya Puasa holiday, a tuesday weekday again, a total of 9 of us celebrated ling's birthday earlier. Ling, Ling's bro, Yan, Jia, Ping, Derrick, Glenn, Royston, Willie & I meet up at Wild Wild Wet entrance during the mid-afternoon. It was raining quite heavily that afternoon and I prayed when I was on the cab to meet them. Thank God! It stopped raining when I reached Downtown East. God works miracle in our life when we pray to Him sincerely, faithfully & with a trusting heart in Jesus's name. Haha.. Managed to surprise Ling with the cake that all of us had shared and my personal present, a bouquet of roses, which I promised her during Ping's birthday celebration this year. Just to let her know that I still remember what I have promised you!
My Dearest Ling and me. With our 'engagement' flower. Haha...
Her Angie the Choice Oreo Cake. Nice?
Me, Yan, Ling, Ping & Jia. The usual five with strong bond!

Nice group pics at Wild Wild Wet, 24th Oct 2006.
After Ling's birthday celebration, I have been feeling weird and having complex feelings which I even can't comprehend it. Still searching for the feelings and I hope everything I'm doing now, I do it without regrets. I have been thinking and thinking even during my working hours and something big happened. Well, at least, it was a big matter to me. I twisted and broke my spectacles into two pieces. Oh no, in the middle of the day when it was on 3plus in the afternoon. No choice, I have to spend the rest of the time without spectacles and seeing everyone around me in blur mode. Anyway, I wasn't feeling so down that day cause I have my new goal found! I started learning knitting during my lunch time from my colleague, Venme. I just wanna thank her so much for helping me to get the necessary stuffs for knitting and willingly to teach me without any complaints. I'll remember this date, 25th Oct 2006. Cool!
Happy 19th Birthday to my dearest Ling whoose birthday falls on 26th Oct. Hope you have really enjoy yourself during the celebration day and on your birthday too! May the Lord bless you on your walk with Him and cling on to Him and the Cross!
After three days, I managed to collect my new spectacles at Toa Payoh, my usual optical shop since young, on last Saturday. I choose the geeky spectacles this time round. Determined to change my looks, to change my feelings, to revamp!

Quote of the day: 'As I close my eyes and think about the past memories that you have left me when you used to protect me and walk behind me along the quiet dim roadway, I smile and appreciate it with all my heart. But as I open my eyes and face the reality, the memories were gone and faded as tears start flowing out.'

Missing those times that we had...
I've been thinking alot during this month till now. Been missing the times when friends gathered and have fun together. Always carrying hopes and dreams ahead of me. So I won't lose hope and be pessimistic.
I finally signed up for driving lessons on 30th Sept after dad nagging for two years. Even before I turned 18. Everyone always feel that I'm so lucky to be able to learn driving at this age as my dad sponsoring for it. But behind this lies the real truth. I feel so scared to face the future, so afraid that the future is coming nearer, but no one will ever understand this complicated feelings. I want the freedom to choose my ideal career, to do the things I like without restriction, to go to church as and when I like, to have my ultimate freedom. However, all these seem to be so far away, seem to be like the cars on the road driving further and further away till they are out of sight. What should I do? Go against my dad's decision or remain quiet to bear with all these?
It has been long since I went to watch movie. Rob-B-Hood is a nice show so I decided to catch it with kio at the Cathay on 4th Oct. I have been laughing all the way throughout the movie.

5th Oct, one day before the mid-autumn festival, I met up with Ping and here we go, intending to shop for mooncakes after my attachment work. We ended up at Marina Square having appetizing dinner. Meals at MOF (Ministry of Food) My Izakaya. It's worth the money and we will be back there again. We ended up rushing to Hougang to get my last minute mooncakes for the celebration event the next day. Thanks dearest Ping for accompanying me & always hearing me out when I faced problems or feeling down.

That's me with my Japanese Cha Siew rice meal.

This year mid-autumn festival fell on 6th Oct and it was a friday. Although it was an ideal day, but we don't get to have the ideal weather. The smoky haze has made a lot of people feeling uncomfortable and yet, a lot of people still burn things to celebrate mid-autumn festival. Making the weather even more hazy. So ironical. Anyway, Ping, Ling, kio, Kenny, Ah Gu, Warric & me still make it a point to celebrate this day. Somehow, remembered the days when we were in secondary 2, celebrating mid-autumn festival together as well. We ended up at a garden near ling's place. It was a pity that I need to leave first with Warric. Thanks for accompanying me!
The strawberry mooncake that I have brought along.
Warric making of the mini rocket. Haha...
The hazy weather became worse the next day when my church was having the mid-autumn festival event on a saturday night. I went over to church earlier that morning to help in decorating the place. I felt so happy that I was able to bring my mum over to church and let her know that I enjoyed going to church although I was not ready to tell her that I became a Christian. I guess God will give me the right time to break the news to her. I know she will be able to accept it, but not sure for my dad. Christian peeps, pray for me ok? Overall, We had a fun time in church that night. Thanks God & everyone who were present that day!
That's my good friend in church. Wenling. I remember you.
Decorating the church in progress.
I made my first trip to Vivo City on 10th Oct with Cheryl. It is a new shopping centre at Harbour Front and a lot of shops were still not opened yet. Too bad that the shopping centre is only from B2- L3. Probably the soil over there is not strong enough to hold more levels. Haha..

Somehow, I felt so sad and troubled so I decided to have a haircut on a monday blues on 16th Oct. Have a nice haircut really felt less stress. Cool. Change my hair style. Have my fringe cut. I'll have more changes as days goes by.
I miss this look of mine. But I have to change myself for some reasons.
After the haircut. Do I look better and different?
On the 18th Oct, I met up with Yan, Jia & Ping to get Ling's birthday present. Hope she likes the present from us.
To a special someone. Ah kio! Thanks for being with me throughout these years. For being able to forgive me, to bear with my nonsense and to sacrifice so much for me although I have done so much wrongs to you. Half a decade don't come easy. 19thOct.
Kio & me.
Thanks for the webcam!
WOW, Wild on wheels, event has just ended on 20th Oct. Being the publicity rep for NP, it wasn't been an easy task. I have been calling, smsing & sending emails to a lot of people from the PEP group. However, I was glad to be called to do God's work. To evangelise so that more people will come to hear the gospels that God is Great! His Salvation plans for everyone who believes and trusted Him! 83 non-christians heard the gospels and 29 of them decided to know more about Him. 107 people participated in the game event. It was a nice experience. God's love will moved His people!
