haha.. k.. today is the 31st church anniversary for the church i m currently attending.. invited a few friends for the event at suntec.. haha.. n jy n dan turned up today.. haha.. really happy tt they can turn up.. haha.. even if jus one turn up, i'll b happy le.. though they r non-believers, yet they r still willing to come..thanks alot!.. though tis morning it was raining... nice weather to slp in.. n 10am at suntec means u guys hv to wake up early on sun too.. thanks for coming.. n dan, thanks for cabbing down.. really happy.. haha.. n i m glad tt u guys enjoyed urself tis morning.. haha.. it's really nice n sweet of u guys n to hear tt u did nt regret coming.. haha.. n noe wat? u guys coming actually was a gd companion to me! haha.. oops.. if nt hor, i'll b like a lost person in e huge place.. haha.. i only noe 2 of e songs.. haha.. sang 'Complete' again.. haha.. e lyrics was in one of my previous post.. haha.. nice song.. haha.. if u hv tym, n wanna noe e lyrics, can go find.. if nt, youtube it.. haha.

but there's smth i need to clear.. smth heard today during e service.. it may sounds misleading... n many ppl perceive it wrongly.. so i think i wanna clear it here.. when one ask God for physical healing for illness, it's not 100% guarantee tt u will b healed even if u accept Christ. n nt bcos God dun hv e power to heal u or dun wan to heal u.. it's jus tt He has His own plans for His glory. He listens to prayer.. but e ans to e prayer may b yes, no or wait. so i dun really like it when ppl jus emphasize on them coming to accept Christ and their illness r healed.. yup, it's true.. n God can heal, cos He's God n He is in control.. but it's misleading at times.. ppl may b misleaded n approach God bcos they wan to b healed physically, n when they dun, they'll doubt e existence n trueness of God. ya.. tt's all i wanna clear.. haha..

i like e guitar performance by Benny Prasad. it's v cool.. how did he play his guitar in tt way? makes me wanna touch my guitar again.. but nope.. i did nt get e chance to do it today.. mayb some other days bah.. my passion in it is fading.. cos of stagnation in skills n limited songs tt i can play.. hai.. hope one day, i can learn it proper.. ya.. i like e sharing by professer freddy n datuk edward ong n benny prasad.. benny's teacher told him tt no one is useless.. cos even if u r useless, u can still b used as a negative example.. lol! teachers, pls dun say these of ur students in future.. but i mus say tt e teacher is quite creative to think of saying things in such a way.. haha..

after service, met lyn n christel.. haha.. had lunch den went mac.. left soon after cos i need to go home to rush tut.. i hv 2 tut tml n i still haven complete e work.. lol.. haha.. tis weekend i hv nt done much studies.. :( haha.. so i m back in my hostel now.. cos i need to do my work.. i cant concentrate at home.. cos my parents r watching e tv.. n trying to converse w me.. haha.. mum was sweet.. haha.. cook dinner.. w soup.. haha.. she seldom make soup on sundays in e past.. haha.. it has been bout 2 wks since i ate her cooking.. haha.. n she 'forced' me to eat e honeydew she bought.. haha.. she made barley for me too.. n a bottle to bring back to hostel.. yum.. haha.. barley is nice.. haha.. homemade one.. haha..

waited v long for bus at my home there to go to boon lay.. den e bus was so packed.. hai.. den after tt, realised there was another bus behind mine.. haha.. which is quite empty.. haha.. reached back hostel.. found a lizard shit on e floor.. zzz. haha.. told it nt to anyhow shit le.. haha.. mus toilet train it.. lol.. i m mad le.. haha..

i m oso thankful for God's grace n mercy for me.. haha.. for helping me keep a friendship.. :)

anyway, here is smth tt i came up w ytd.. but didnt blog it ytd.. haha..

Friendships
Friendships are like gems
Close friends are like precious gems
They are rare and hard to find
You're blessed if you found one

Sometimes the gem may be scratched
These scratches are caused by many things
Words said and unsaid
Actions done and undone

Often, these scratches are not on purpose
But scratches can never be removed
Scratches are like scars that stay
and the gem is no longer perfect

Will you still want this gem?
Will you leave this gem in search of another 'perfect' one?
A perfectionist will not keep an imperfect gem
The scratches have made it ugly

But i'll still want this gem
Cause it's hard to come by
Cause it's a gem that is dug out with sweat and tears
Cause relationships can never be perfect

Sometimes, it's these scratches
that make the gem more priceless
That give it a new meaning
That makes it a stronger gem

It's not easy to keep a gem by our side
If not handled with care, it will be lost
Treasure your gems and keep them safe
Don't regret after losing it


btw, i realise tt it's quite sweet.. how we treasure some relationships.. sometimes, when we r bored after eating n start 'playing' w food, forming words.. wat we write out is wat it's in our mind.. it's nice to noe tt others hv Barker in mind too.. :) wanted to upload a pic of it.. but dunno y cnt upload here.. haha... n i m happy cos i noe at least 4 ppl from barker r using e wallpaper tt i made.. haha.. :)

ok.. tym to go rush my 2 tut.. haha..
