Whenever i'm free/bored, i always find it interesting & insightful (for me) to read back on my past blog entries. It lets me have a clearer picture of how i was in the past, how i reacted to certain stuffs, & refreshed my memory on issues that had happened. & sometimes i just cldn't seem to stop once i started reading!

& yea this greatly motivates me to write things that have happened to me, be it writing them down or posting pics up.. all the way til now.

So this blog's more for myself to recap memories then for my friends to read it? Not so too. Frenz who know me know i love to share of my life.. & so this serves as one of the means too. =)

Ok so haven been blogging much abt my life lately. Let's start!

Feel like blogging abt last sat (17/06/06) events. Ok i'm supposed to wake up early in the morning at 7.15am to go for my compulsory Time Management training 9am-5pm at the URA Centre @ Maxwell. In the end due to the late night out @ Suntec & Esplanade the previous night resulted in me sleeping at almost 4am. (celebrating Shaun's bdae & subsequent chatting w some remaining grls whom like me dun wish to go back home so early =p)

So now you understand why the deafening alarm ringing of my h/p didn't seem to have any effect on me at 715am then. Woke up startled at around 7.55am, rushed like mad, and managed to reach URA @ 9.20am with a pretty outfit, done make-up, and nice hairdo. (hey i'm gd!!)

Yuan & Roxanne were unable to hold a seat for me with them (macham like church! hha), so i reluctantly settled for one seat at a sparsely unpopulated table (training was in seminar style, not lecture style), which at one glance, i know why was that particular table so unpopular. *thou shall not be mean here! =p*

Did a group discussion & activity, looking at how laidback my grpmates were, i took the intiative to start the ball rolling to facilitate discussion, as well as writing our points down on this large piece of white paper. Thereafter i was "unanimously saboed voted" to go upfront to do a presentation on the outcome of our grp discussion. Tell me the difference between having a group and not! -_-"

Presented my piece, trainer was super pleased, and since then he started to use my name multiple times for citing examples or asking for opinions as he continued on his training throughout the day. -_-"

Reminded me of the parable of the lamp tt cannot be hidden under a table. How true!

Thank God break came and i had a relief from my hideous grp mates. Was persuaded by Guodong & Joanne to join their grp instead coz they still have one more seat available on their side. More than happy! *shucks i'm being mean again* So after the break, i happily changed & settled down in another table full of familiar and friendlier faces for the rest of my day. =)

Overall the training was surprisingly gd. Useful.
Before that i was dragging my feet there due to 4 reasons:
1) It was a Saturday for God's sake!
2) It was 9-5pm.
3) Pulau Ubin outing with cell group was forfeited.
4) The skeptical view towards the course title. Time management.
*as in we actually get an external trainer to tell us how to manage our time???*

And towards the end of the training, i was actually glad that i came for it. =)
Oh & the lunch buffet they provided was gd! hahahaha.. I live to eat.

===============================================================
Off to meet dinner w shuang & thomas in town. Thomas introduced his new gf to me - Zoeline. Wat a special name hor.. And the thing was we hit off super well! Was talking non-stop together 10mins shortly after the intro.. Our chemistry shocked shuang & thomas as they were left behind with each other while we 2 walked infront, yapping away non-stop! =p Yeah i love making new friends! & wats more she lives near me too! Happy~

& there's more. When i was about to go meet Violet at PS, i saw Caline! One of my closer frenz back in Uni whom we stopped contacting one another ever since a minsunderstanding during the final yr. So happy to see her again.. Still as pretty & sporty as b4 lah! We went & settled at BK to catch up on each other's lives (after i excused myself frm Violet's discussion with her CCA member, with apologies)

We talked so much.. abt work.. abt church.. abt zac.. abt our love lives.. Glad to hear tt she's attending church fervently now. Can really see how God has changed her and her life.. Makes me feel God's so amazing & unpredictable. Changed 2 grls so much b4 He let them meet again. =)

We are so gonna keep back in contact! At least i've found back a gd fren who's as interested as me in learning diving! Yea~ =p

After that day, i wondered is God starting to answer my prayers now.. My prayers that i wan true frenz in my life. Really true frenz who will stand by one another, whom i won't feel uncomfortable or condemned when i talk with.. One who i can really call my "best friend". Thank God for putting new ppl in my life now.. Potential ones that friendships can really grow beyond limit ..

& thank God for w328. My heart actually skipped a beat when gershon revealed something to a few of us yest'd after service. Part of me wants it, but part of me dun want it as well. Guess i really have to start learning to see things in a bigger way..

& yeap.. I'm excited about wat future is instored for all of us. =)
