130604 - The Perfect Kind of Day
Today is the perfect day. Everything today is perfect.
Sunday is the day we all go to church to meet God and have fellowship with our brothers and sisters in Christ. And well, that's exactly what happened today. I woke up at 7am sharp despite having slept at 3am plus the night b4 talking on the phone. I admit it was quite hard to get up...i was really really tired. But somehow i managed to get up, walk over to the bathroom and switch on the water heater. Not long after that my brother went to bathe first. Then he left early for a rehearsal in church. And why today is different from other days is cuz i ate breakfast! Well, yes i did! I had slices of bread with canned tuna mayo, and a cuppa coffee. Well, it was a simple breakfast but it was good. So we left for church after that, and then yes, went for YF and all that. Worship was really good in YF today...one song struck out particularly (What a Friend We Have in Jesus) and yeah it tells us that in any time of difficulty, just turn to Jesus! Anyway, YF ended earlier than usual (9:55am) so we ended up hanging around in church and just walked around talking and joking around. Then went up for service...Pastor spoke quite a powerful message today about the "gray" areas in life, the areas which the Bible did not specify whether it was black or white but gray. I learned that it does not really matter, as long as what you do does not stumble your brother who may be weaker in faith. Pretty straightforward actually. After service we went for lunch around potong pasir. Had chicken rice. Returned to church shortly after lunch to attend some briefing for a musical by the church. It was quite boring i have to admit, but it was useful. That lasted about slightly more than an hour i guess? Then after that 8 of us (Me, Aaron, Andrew, Kev Mong, Caleb, Angel, Anna and Cheryl) went to PS to walk walk...we ended up eating cakes at Secret Recipe before heading to the basement to shop. I got me a pair of sunglasses..Oakley imitations but what the hey, they look good and cost much less! Yeah..then took a bus home.
Dinner - My friends at Amici msg me just now while i was at PS asking me to come hang out with them once they knocked off from work. Wasn't confident bout my parents letting me go out..cuz they know by the time i get home it'll be around after midnite? So anyway, persuaded my parents to bring our family to dine at my workplace Hahaha..crafty rite?? Got outerior motive. But it wasn't exactly an easy decision too...throughout the whole time at the restaurant i was a lil scared that my mom or my bros will screw up or embarass me. But no, again i misjudged them (notty me). Things went just fine. Was so so surprised to see the flowers and the balloon at our reserved table..i was like (uh-oh i hope no bday song) haha..what did we eat? Well we had Bruschetta, Fritto Misto Mare, and i had linguine vongole. Aaron had linguine veg, Andrew had spag boscaiola, Dad had fett smoked salmon, and mom had chicken primavera (my fav)...and yep..we ate. Was told later on that they wanted to give me a heart-shaped tiramisu on the house but since i was so impatient and ordered one, they decided to charge it to my bill LOLx!!! So far i'm very VERY grateful for all my friends who were there and who planned the surprise. I was really REALLY surprised after dinner when my parents left, cuz we went to PGP and they again surprised me with tiramisu that they baked!!! Haha u guys rawk! We had banana flavoured tiramisu, strawberry, and choc and raisins. All were good believe me, and i enjoyed them very very much~ Then we had red wine LOL...now i'm no drinker okay. Just cuz i had lotsa white wine to drink that time doesn't mean i'm a good drinker, cuz i'm not. We had red wine today and it was...well hard??? I dunno how to describe it, but it was really too strong for my liking haha..or maybe i'm just not used to it yet? Maybe once i drink more haha. Ate tiramisu, then played tai tee. Haha..we were all acting drunk (tho we weren't) and like laughing and joking and having the time of our lives. Yeah..and all of us dared each other to drink down one shot red wine, which we all did and well..haha i wish we did this earlier, cuz we realised it tasted much better than just letting the wine linger in ur mouth! Haha..but all in all i had a very very good time guys, and i really really appreciate what u guys did for me.
You know this kinda reminds me a lot of my life in Melb last time. I had a bunch of very very good friends, and we did everything together, as well as crazy crazy dares..and yeah, very similar characteristics, but no, none of those guys will ever be forgotten or replaced, just like the few of u whom i've met at Amici. Let's hope our friendship lasts at least till many many MANY years later! In fact, let's try to let it last 4EVA!!! Hahaha...
