too many "hes", not enough "shes"
argh! it's been 3 days.
THURSDAY: went to Farrer Park MRT station to eat AFRICAN food. funky stuff. i like their fried bananas, aka goreng pisang, african style. and rather unexpectedly, went to... draw blood.
then, rushed to JJC for contact work, which was good. haha. Bryan helped kick start it. Gilbert was the most interesting contact met. he's interested in Bible Study in JJC and goes to CHC. cool =D
then, went home, played Sanitarium (cool game about a person trying to regain his sanity. my life story =p). popped. oops. slept realyl early today... 9.30pm, while doing QT =( that's why i didn't blog
FRIDAY: Dental, still got 1 1/2 months to go till the braces go. then met MF to explore Far East Square. SUPER COOL PLACE! SO MUCH GOOD FOOD! =) best was Mr Teh's teh. no kidding. got the cool picture of the cup to prove it =p had really good mushroom soup/rosemary chicekn sandwich at La Avie. then went to holland V for pasta and tiramisu. then had work
crazy shift! but super fun, and fulfilling. almost full house at settlers, and we worked till 11.30pm =p 2 groups wanted to buy games. "Cranium" and "Betrayal on the House on the Hill". yay ;) came home... to a house with a blackout. had to shower in the dark. and, unfortunately, i didn't have the power to emit electriity from my palms and pulsate electrical discharges... which means i couldn't blog =p
SATURADAY: went to CCK to see... a cool farm? Bollywood, which had "poison Ivy bistro". more good food! like, it's food made from igredients gorwn on the farm itself. like "fig tea", carrot cake... ya. then, bought jeans, came home, did some long needed blogging. gonna go for 1986 dinner later.

evil code: K H M O A
it's been a long night... blogging at 1am ain't easy... but what kept me going? well, cool stuff =) *yawn*
didn't go to the farm with MF, as planned, cuz we too tired. but when we woke up, i said bad stuff that got us to the wrong stuff, and we ended up at adam road food centre to eat the "best nasi lemak in singapore", and argued a little. then we went to "Island Creamery". cool place, cuz they have ice cream in funky flavours. we tried "teh tarik" and "horlicks". the "horlicks" one was really really good. will definitely go back to try that flavour again.
then, took a long 174 bus ride... in the WRONG direction. so, ya, coudln't join Bryan for campus e. in the end, went to see a park near Outram, walked around chinatown, went to YMCA to relax on the sun deck, then _______ then we took 174 back to Jurong point, talking a lot on the way back. at JP, bought bubble tea, couldn't find my jeans, saw a cool shop selling christian badges. we then walked for MF's favourite snack, at lakeside. the walk there was really good. friendly, good, clean...
the snack shop closed. third time. so we walked to chinese garden for dinner, then we parted ways, i went home to watch AMI and the amazing race. AMI... my top 4 has Nadia (sang a Nikki song. cool), Carrie, Anwar (about the only guy, other than Nikko, who I support) and Vonzell.
ok, i wasn't really concentrating on the amazing race 7. cuz i was chatting with Marcus (yay! finally got to talk to him. it's coincidental that i've seen him b4), roy, MF, yan... lots of ppl, basically. then Daniel. now it's 2am. really gotta go. the night chatting turned out really interesting, and complicated, but cool, cuz, ya, the Marcus was cool =) nightz.

a good side to Darren? no kidding???
actually, that ain't very true. it's just that, well... after knowing him as a "bad kid" for so long, i wa thrown off by how "nice" he was today.
MONDAY: spent the morning at settlers NC, then went home, slept, woke up up at 1.45pm, went to settlers HV (half an hour late =p oops). went home reeeaaaalll early... 8pm. cooked the chrysenthemum jelly from the recipe. turned out REALLY good.
SUNDAY: had a chat with "Roy", and a doctrinal debate with Brian =) then, lunch with MF at Jaan. waaaaaahhhhh... ex$$$$$$$ place, but it was nice... fine dining for the first, and prob the last time ever. like, c'mon, $35 for a set lunch? i'm sure $35 can be better spent elsewhere, not all on a single meal. but it was cool, nonetheless... with all the picture taking =D then we walked to chinatown for Ahboling. ya. self-made tang1 yuan2.
then rushed down to JJC for campus e. got 1 good response, 2 rubbish responses. well, gotta be more prepared tmrw for that... then went home, then, unexpectly, Darren messaged me, asking me out to woodlands library. i was half expecting a twist in events, where we would end up in a HDB block...
but such thing didn't happen. we went to the library, he went to borrow his books, i went to
almost buy my jeans... was $7 short. oops. Darren wanted to pay, but i already owe him so much, told him not to. then we went home.
in God's plan? a fruitless, super fast night out? does God have more planned? i only regret not being able to talk so much, cuz I was afraid I'd leak out things that i shouldn't be knowing to him and making him mad. some "friend of sinners" i am. sheesh. still haven't been a good friend to him. so i messaged him something like... "I've been a very lousy friend. Friendship should be based on honesty. I've been hiding lots of things from you. Sorry. hope things will change when we meet 7th April. see ya, chum".
haven't heard this song for very long. it's a really good song. when will Darren's "defining moment" be?
DEFINING MOMENTthere comes a time, in every heart a time of real decision
when we reach the point of choosin' how we would live our lives
all our hopes, all our dreams will rise up from that moment,
the moment we surrender, and choose to follow Christ
He's been waiting all our lives to hear us say,
I am your's Lord take my hand and lead the way
[Chorus]
When you believe He's all you need that will be your defining moment.
As you live your life walking in His light, trusting Him completely,
that will be, that will be, your defining moment.
All I have all I am, is resting in His promise,
The promise that He'll make me everything that I should be,
I will live, I will die for the cause He set before me,
to take this love inside my heart for all the world to see
Oh! All of heaven celebrates when they hear someone say, Yeah!
I am yours Lord, take my hand and lead the way!
Yeah, His amazing grace is such a mystery yeah
how in an instant it can make your life complete
oooohhhhhh

illnesses i caught: cough, mahjong fever
SUNDAY: went to church. another REALLY good evangelistic pulpit message. if i had known, I would've invited all my non-christian friends there.
basically, i went through work, had a staff evaluation session, nothing much else happened. throughout the whole time, i tried not to think about the whole horrible Man Fai experience... about how much he's changed... it's really hard to be faithful in times like this.
went home early, 8.30pm. went online and all... then Fizah called, said there'll be overnight gaming. so i reached settlers NC at 10.30pm, and... eh... i broke Fizah's heart, i guessed, cuz she said she wanted just the 2 of us to play war games, but i said we should play with more players. guess she got really mad. wouldn't talk to me. what a big change. no matter. she can be childish all she wants. if not for this experience, she wouldn't have learnt mahjong =p and... ya... playing mahjong with Evonne, Darren, Chin Siang and Wan Si is really fun =)
now i'm back at home. feel like accompolishing so many things. at the same time... i can't help feel unceasing sorrow... God have mercy!
God, i believe that you'll answer my prayer, and far exceed it
