~ 9th Apr 2006 Sunday
I remembered I only managed to sleep for roughly 5 hours..then I was waken up by mama…hmn….today going to be a busy day…hmn…morning going to the 2nd day of Encountering Weekend…then during the lunch break I will be going off…to Parkway Parade…to attend my last 2 SOL1 lesson @ TC….hmn…going to be a busy & tired day!! Haha….
Opps!! I remembered I had not finish drawing the booklets…so immediately after I bathed & changed…I settled down to draw..however…only managed to finish one…that’s for mama…as the times went by…all I can do was to bring the blank booklets to the encounterin room to draw….
Mama went to open office, will join us @ the venue later…so I went with aunt…
We arrived quite early…the chairs were not even arranged….but some of the leaders were already there to do some preparation….well…since the time still early…& I haven’t finish drawing my little booklets…so I make use of the time to draw finish…hmn…well I have to draw at least 6-7 booklets…8 pages each…
Drew half-way, I helped to arranged the chairs…& put my bag @ the row next to the pillar…I need to reserve one for the old granny…& one for mama…so I sat down on my seat to draw…then the old granny came..& I asked her to sit down there can or not? She asked mi where’s my mama…I told her that she will be here after she opened the office..hmn…cos the worship going to start soon…so I went to the next room (where there’s the toilets…& chairs for small cellgp gathering) I sat on one of the chair whereby there’s a small moveable board….tat can act as table…so I started drawing down there…while the worship continued at the next room...hmn…quite paiseh actually…becos everybody going toilet will walk by…& they will like peep & see wat am I doing…heehee…& mama also passed by mi…but she seems abit unpleased..becos I m supposed to be here to help with the ministry.yet I am sittin @ the next door to draw these booklets…
Then there’s this aunt…she’s abit slow…suddenly approached mi…asked mi if I drew all these…& yes I answered her…then awhile later…she came back with the little booklet…& asked mi to draw some of th snoopies on hers….then she told mi she duno how to write…so I asked her wat she had learnt in this 2 days…so I helped her to write…after she left…I continued to draw…then awhile later…Mary came in to prepare herself for the next lesson….before doing wat she intended to do..she prayed for Amy…& then after they finished their praying…Amy went back to next door….& Mary sat next to mi to do her preparation…while I continued to draw…hmn…hands so tired…hahah…rushing for time…have to finish before lunch break…
Then finally finished drawing the one for Mary…so once I am done…I immediately gave it to her…& so glad that she liked it….Then I continued to draw the rest…hmn…left about 3 more booklets to go…must hurry…Awhile later..she’s done with her preparation..& left the room….
Then mama suddenly came in & asked mi to go out to help in ministry…hmn…I can sense that she already not pleased…so I immediately packed my stuffs & then went in to help out…
After ministry, it’s tea break time…so I faster went back to the next room to make used of the time to finish my last drawings…..
Yupeee….finally done…I am going to gave Amy, Pauline, Veron, Theresa, Jessica, Sook Kuan & Fengying aunt…hmn…actually wanted to draw one for Pastor HT…but I m worried that she will find it too childish…hahhaa…so I didn’t prepare hers….
I went back to the room…& sat back @ my seat…Amy was sitting juz on my right side…& mama on my left side…while the old granny was on mama left side…I then passed the booklet to Amy..hmn…actually I had attended all the lessons for quite many times…so I didn’t pay much attention to wat the speaker was saying…halfway thru…mama left for work…in the end left the old granny sittin down there…Amy then told mi that she envied my relationship with my mama….she told mi she dun have a chance to have this kind of relationship with her mother, as she’s in Malaysia…I then told her..she not yet seen us quarrel …she was surprised that we do quarrel..hahhaa….yes indeed we do…but she continued saying that at least I still can quarrel…unlike her…too far to quarrel …I then told her…call her to quarrel lor..hahha…mi full of bad idea..heeehee…..then I told her tat afterwards I wanna took a photo wif her….she tot took her only…then I said no lah….both ofus…together….then while Dorothy aunt continued talking on the lesson, Amy told mi to go to the room next door….to take photos…so we sneaked out of the room…& took 2 photos there…hehehe…quite nice…becos Amy pretty mah..hahaha….
Hmn…Amy was really sweet….after mama left..she asked later if I m having lunch with any ppl? If not I can join her…oh….so sweet of her….i was so touched…really touched..I told her my aunt was there….but I still thank her for her thoughfulness…..heehee….soon the lesson ended…& aunt fengying came to tell mi that the booklet I gave her…she showed it to Pastor HT…& she wanna used it as a sample…but tat booklet I gave aunt feng ying…had her name on it…so in the end, I decided to draw one on the spot for Pastor HT..before I set off to Parkway Parade for my lesson…..
Well then Feng ying aunt managed to find a few pieces of paper for mi to draw…..in the end I choose the yellow & the pink one….cos Lay Yan also want one….but before I drew for them..i went to give out the booklets to the rest of them…I managed to pass to Pauline…& then I told aunt tat I not having lunch with her…so she had lunch with Feng Ying aunt & the new member Xia Fei….I then passed the orange booklet to Jessica…very lucky..she likes orange color…hahhaa….i didn’t know tat..but I juz had the idea tat orange suit her….
Hmn…since the english service had not yet end…so I waited outside..but later I saw the old granny inside…so I went in to accompany her…while waiting for Veron & Theresa ….Finally they ended with some worship songs…I passed the black booklet to Theresa…then I passed the purple booklet to Veron….she’s so touched that she gave mi a hug…she even told her other members tat I was a fan of hers..hhaha….heehee….then I cant seems to find Sook Kuan…but lucky, there was this helpful lady…she brought mi to the hawker centre & managed to find her there…so I handed the blue booklet to her…
After giving out all the booklets…I immediately went back to the chinese service room to draw for both Pastor HT & Lay Yan….then I happened to find that Pastor HT never go for her lunch..instead she was reading some materials @ one corner…
I went to the other room…& started to draw the booklets…in my fastest speed…cos before 1.30pm..I had to leave…else I will be late for my lesson….& now the time was already 1.10pm…so I settled down @ one corner…while listening to my mp3 songs…I concentrated on my drawings….drew & drew….finally I managed to finished drawing ard 1.40pm…so I immediately passed the yellow booklet to Pastor HT & then I passed the pink one to Lay Yan….then I hinted to Feng Ying aunt tat I m going off to attend the lesson liao…
I took my bag & bided goodbye to Amy…& left from the back door…
I hurried crossed the overhead bridge…oh….my bus was coming…so I hurried down the stairs…but just a few steps…the bus left right infront of mi…oh man…now I will hav to wait for quite some time before the next bus arrived….Lucky mi…another bus..196 came…hmn..single deck…but no choice…I m going to be late liao…so no matter wat…I muz board tis bus…however…I regretted once I boarded the bus….it was so stuffy…& warm…like no aircon…oh man…how am I going to survive on this bus…I need to travel a very long journey…so I alighted at the next stop…hmn…no choice…but to wait for the other bus….
Lucky I waited for not very long…bus 197 arrived…it’s double-deck..yuppee…..once I boarded the bus….i fell asleep very soon…so tired….erm..should be really very tired…as the journey went on & on…I woke up in daze…looked around..oh my god…did I miss my stop? Too long never take this bus for quite some times….hmn…wonder if I reaching soon or over liao….but lucky …I managed to recognize the bridge…there’s 2 bridges one with shelter one without shelter…so I alighted the bus…hurried walked to the TC church…
Well….as expected…I was late…very late…by the time I reached it’s already 3pm…hee….so I immediately went into the class…signed in, took the notes…& found a seat in the 2nd front row…so strange..i tot I m late..i will be able to sit somewhere behind..but who knows..both front rows were empty…as for the back…all fully occupied…hahha…so no choice but to sit @ the 2nd row…well…actually I guess the lesson juz started not long ago only…then we realized there’s only odd pages in the lecture notes…so in the end Pastor KM hav to ask someone to go photocopy the notes for most of us…
Then Pastor KM asked those not feeling well to come to the front…& asked those who were leaders to come & pray for them…erm..since I m a small leader....but still a leader..so I went up…& approached 1 of them..the aunt I approached told mi tat her hands always felt numb…so I did a short prayer for her…& awhile later she laid down…the spiritual working on her….soon she got up…& told mi her hand no longer numb..but her head abit numb…I told her.dun worry..slowly all the numbness will be gone…juz believe..
Actually this the 1st time I prayed for ppl till they laid down..hmn..guess after attending lessons & being more passion & devoted to God..really improve my spiritual learning….Thanks God!
Then the lesson went on….maybe I m too tired & becos both the front row was empty except mi…so the air-con was extremely strong…I was shivering in cold, lucky I brought my sweater along…then soon I fell asleep…heee…can u imagine I m seating right infront..yet I fell asleep…hmn…but Pastor KM didn’t say anything…(opps..wat a bad example of mi)..but very strange..i still know wat he’s talking about…hahha….he then asked us to stand & find a partner & pray for each other for the coming almighty harvest event….I turned back, wanted to find the aunt behind mi to pray…but she juz walked to the back…in the end all of them found their partners, yet I am alone..so I juz stood there intending to pray alone..but Pasor KM approached mi & said… “come, let mi pray for u”…then after his prayer…he said “now..you pray for mi.” Erm…wow..this is the 1st time I am praying for pastor…so I was abit nervous..but still managed to say a short prayer for him…then after our praying…he then asked I rushed over from the encountering weekend huh…heheee…cos he saw mi @ the encountering weekend yesterday…so he knew I muz be too tired tat I fell asleep…heee….
Hmn…sooo……cold…..even though I m wearing the sweater…the cold still managed to get thru my skin…oh man….this the first time I felt so cold during this lesson…usually..mama & aunt attending with mi…but today ..I was alone…so well…maybe tat’s one of the reason….hahhaa…..
Imagine how tired I was…even when singing the worship songs while standing, my eyes were closed…hahha…lucky I knew the lyrics by heart…hahha….
Finally the lesson ended…yuppee!!! I completed my SOL 1…left 2 more SOL 2 & SOL3…I will complete the whole course…hehehe…..due to the coldness..i sat down there..while all the rest of them left…then Pastor KM was attending to some of the students..and I saw little gorilla came looking for her dad (Pastor KM)…I called her…she was so surprised to see mi here…happily came over to sit beside mi….I then grabbed her hands for some warmth….*phew* tat was great…her hands were so warm…she didn’t expect mi to be here…cos she thought I was @ the Encountering weekend…and she’s waiting outside for half an hour for the lesson to end…if she knew I was here…she would have come in & join mi…she then told mi that she went library & popular to buy file…markers, etc…
I was so happy to see her here today…cos every week I will meet her @ the church…thinking tat I will be at the encountering in the morning & she will be attending the church service..so cant meet at all..then afternoon I will be attending lesson..and duno where she will go…so really didn’t expect to see her this week..but thank God…I am really glad to see her….she brightened up my day…so I grabbed her to take a photo together with my hp..hahaha…
After Pastor KM was done, I took a photo of him so as to set as a caller ID…then we left together…Pastor KM offered to send mi home…since it’s on the way as he’s going to fetch Pastor HT at the encountering weekend…so I agreed with his offer….
So Pastor KM leaded us to his car..while little gorilla & I followed him behind…we chatted as we walked…we walked quite a distance then reached the car…I then sat at the back seat…hmn..1st time taking a ride from Pastor KM…during the journey..there was a moment of silence…(cos dunno wat to say)..but Pastor KM broke the silence…he asked mi abt my studies…how’s my exam preparation?…when graduating? Wat course I am taking? Wat modules are there? etc…..then little gorilla was making funny face infront..haha…quite interesting journey….
Well…I was actually quite paiseh to let Pastor KM sent mi home…so I told him to drop mi somewhere whereby he’s convenient….then I asked him to stop at the traffic light just before the overhead bridge next to Suntec…then I thanks him & bided goodbye to both of them then I alighted…little gorilla was still worried…how can I alight here….(such a small girl know how to care for ppl…hmn…see that’s why I really dote on her…)..but I insisted it’s alright…& they left…
Since I am here..i might as well go into Suntec….hee…to pop by the CD/VCD shops…to see if there’s any new dramas/movies on the shelves…..I went into one of the shop…oh…I spotted 2 new dramas… “The Sweety Spy [달콤한 스파이 (Dal-kkom-han Seu-pa-i)] & “To Marry a Millionaire”[백만장자와 결혼하기 (Baek-man-jang-ja-wa Gyeol-hoon-ha-gi)]…so without much hesitation…I bought the 2 set of vcds…hehehe..
Hmn..i then went into another shop…& bought another drama series...wow…so cheap the drama.."My Name is Kim Sam-soon" [내 이름은 김삼순 (Nae Il-eum-eun Kim Sam-soon)]...hhaha..but only in Korean..no chinese language..however, there’s chinese subtitles…hehehe..so it’s alright…cos I usually watched the Korean dramas with the original language…even when watching Japanese dramas..or even Hong Kong dramas…I will watch with the original language….then you can feel the emotion of the dramas…
Hmn…then back home…so tired…after ironing..& bathing…I dun think I can do much revision..so in the end I choose to copy out the documents Bernice sent mi the other day..instead of printing out..hehhee….aunt & mama still not back home…so quiet…hmn..anyway used to liao lah…so it’s nothing special..haha….
Finally..tomolo is Monday…yuppee….can sleep abit longer….
