of breaks and holidays..

who could have predicted that when i applied for 2 weeks leave then, the actual 2 weeks break would turn out so differently from planned/intended?
firstly, the 2 weeks was meant for overseas holiday.. in perth and melbourne. Aus trip put on hold cos Grandma just went for operation (at the grand age of 89...) to remove 1 big 2 small tumours, now comfirmed to be malignant. the most irritating thing is... now after the op, we're all like clueless as to what next... because we have no way of knowing if the cancer cells have spread, how long more etc (what a morbid thought..) so aside from the increased urgency of sharing the Gospel with Grandma, we're just taking it slow, and praying for as painless a recovery as possible...
Well, back to the topic of how plans change - i have no complains la. first week was spent mostly with shuen :) i'm glad for the quality time we had together... and wells.. a bit sad that it was prob my last sleepovers there since they're gonna sell the house. oh yes, a highlight was the 4 of us meeting up! our 'clique-less people clique'.... lol... entertaining to watch shuen and cheryl 'flirt', though i was so darn tired that night. haha.



and of cos, the finger-lickin good michelin standard dinners cooked by Ah Kor! Shu's aunt :) 1 a very sinful gong bak bao (i ate ALL the fats k... haha) and another healthy popiah session. YUM!






then there was shopping with dot on sat... oh man.. hahahaha 2 aunties lugging stuff around singapore...

oh and, clique outing on thurs.. but jojo didnt come :( SAD! watched The Lovely Bones, made me wanna re-read the book... oh and many thanks to 2 lovely girls for helping me with my prom shopping... u know who u are! :P

a relaxing and heart warming Sunday spent with my baobao after church, our first prayer and fasting session, and C.E.T class. silly LENAS... of all times to have their internet fail, it had to be then! GRRRRRR. Thank God for M.O.F upstairs.. tho we wasted precious time and $ and caused much frustration to baobao... (i wonder tho, if i hadnt tried to find another location, what would he have done? heh)

and this week... its already thurs!!! time FLIES man. been slacking at home with occasional outings. and also, all the Prom stuff to settle, of cos. quite exciting. tho unfortunately, my last min nature shows again... haha...

wanna give thanks to Jesus for my results :) this whole 3-year journey... would never have made it through without Him, and lots of support and encouragement from beloved folks of s8 and s11!

a lil ambivalent about upcoming tasks.. may God's name be glorified through me, come what may :)

met my baobao and his navy friends for dinner at Tamp Mall last night.. what a jovial bunch! that darren... wah... so 'irritating' now they all know how loud i can be... whooops!

re-connected with Xin xin too... so so nice playing with her on tues! she's SUCH a darling... so precocious.. so obedient... so adorable... so sweet... so well-behaved and well-mannered... no wonder jing min said "if only she was ours....".... muahahhaa! looking forward to seeing her more often... hopefully later today! :)





dinner at pastamania on tues with the girls... walked from PS to Bugis for mango dessert with Shuling! oh man... walked there with all the barang i had, darn heavy... lol. good exercise though. haha. and yummy desserts at 记得吃!will definitely go back for more... so many more flavours to try :)










alright, i'm STARVING. lunch time for me!
