I honestly think that my face looks very kissy.So all of you should kiss me.
(But wipe your mouths first.)
THREADLESS TEE SHIRTS ARE HEREEEEE :D
So hey ho!
Photos at the top are from yesterday night at our churchies party at Gerald's house!
The food was simply fantastic and yeah, Lynette Sim is hilarious.
Gerald: "Eh Lyn, you going?"
Lyn: "Do I look like I have a choice?!" *turns around and does finger-circling-her-face action*
Belle and I were like WO-AAAAAAH. Now we know how cool Lyn can get!
So Char CAMEEEEEE and told us something really funny like, "I want to watch the sea."
(Inside joke, it's not funny if someone says she wants to watch the sea so get to my level already- just joking OK, bu yao sheng qi)
We were laughing like a bunch of crazy women at our own private table.
Then we went upstairs *trots off* to take jump shots at the balcony with LING'S CAMERAH.
There's one in which Belle looks like a freaking pontianak.
I zoomed in and Cara and I were like *shivers*.
So apart from that, we also got to indulge in melted marshmallow madness, clean-Ling's-shirt-maid-business, unglam picture taking, playing with Cara's massive camera, posing for Rachel, playing Ryan's electric guitar, watching John and Jer battle each other against Taboo, watching The Little Nyonya and getting very angry at annoying/evil characters, going for Watch Night service at church and storming off from Barker all the way to Serene Centre. Like, literally walking all the way.
Yeah about that, I wanted to blame someone for not letting us take a bus or a cab, or for even promising a lift home (it being not so late) but in the end, I guess I only had myself to blame. No I didn't blow up, I just walked straight on because I needed to think and cool off. I was worrying. "Shoot what if I get home super late and I'm still this sweaty! I won't even dare to bathe when no one is awake with me.."
And, God really does turn things around. My dad came to Serene Centre to pick me up at 2 in the morning and even waited for me to finish my shower.
In the shower I was crying when I realised what my Dad just did.
Like, some parents' kids don't even call or bother about their existence.
All because of my foolishness, he actually kind of made a small sacrifice (his left eye isn't working so well and for his age, he should be getting sufficient sleep and not waking up to pick a fool like myself up) and when I was sitting up in bed last night before climbing in, the Holy Spirit reminded me, "If your earthly father can love you this much, how much more does God!"
I thanked God so much for my dad and at the same time, my Mom.
So I sent them both SMSes, telling them I loved them very much and that I was sorry for hurting them.
I heard the SMS being sent to my dad's phone in the next room and I slept well last night.
At Watch Night service, I knew God wanted to tell me something.
"We only see the problem, and we tend to forget that He is behind the problem, that He is the provision (that means he provides for us)."
It really proved to me last night that I was so blinded by the problem. But guess what, He opened my eyes to tell me, "Hey Ling, I'm here for you in 2009, I was there for you all 15 years of your life and I'll be with you forever."
I'm glad that I went for Watch Night to start off the year with God on my side instead of some crazy club or wild party with the World. I saw the multitude of people (especially our BRMC youth) there and I was really glad I went. Because, probably for once, I took God seriously.
I'd be nothing for You, Lord. Nothing. I surrender.
I'd be brought low for You, I'd be labeled as a "crazy christian" for You.
I'm a fool for You, and I've never felt any smarter :) :)
Have an awesome New Year, guys!
Note of the day: The greater the challenge, the greater the provision. GO JESUSSSS!
