Keeping the dream alive.

Started my first lesson in Sunday School yesterday and it was really cool and fun..
Worship was REALLY different..almost all the songs were hyper and required ALOT of actions and bopping up and down.
heh.
'tis fun.

the kids were quite disciplined and all..they'll automatically arrange the chairs in rows before worship..and stack them up again after that...and they're only pri 1- 3 mind you..

and don't get me started on the way funky OHP...it's SO compact!
everything fits into this carryable thingamajig.
-amazed-

i've got the primary twos..and evan's dad is teaching them!
aunty kwok was saying..that's mr gong..and /lightbulb moment.. ohhhh..evan's dad ar?
heh
:D

learnt about trust in class..
trust is...i believe in you...faith...etc.
trust and respect cannot be demanded..it has to be earned.
and how do you know a person is trustworthy?
if your friend wants to borrow a pencil..then you lend him a pencil..and if he returns you after a while...you begin to build trust in him..
hurhur.
that's bringing the whole trust issue to the most basic level.
-grins-

and according to aunty kwok..i'm supposed to teach when september ends..which is..approx 2 weeks time!
-runs around like a headless chicken-

and there are so much more girls than guys in my class...counted only about 6 guys...about 1/3 of the class are boys..
i was assigned to sit with the girls..
who are quite interesting..
when it was time to do the worksheets and all..
this girl handed me a pencil with a grin..cuz i'm pencil-less..
pitiful i know..
and...
after a while..like 1 min or so..
she realised that i wasn't writing anything..
so..she promptly gave me the answers for the exercise...which was something along the lines of rearrange the pictures in order or something..
and i was like..
o.O
am i supposed to be insulted?
hurhur.

and they've got cute little notebooks..ok lar..not really cute..it's the usual book notebook that we use in primary school :D
the notebooks are meant to be used to write down the memory verse..and when you write that down...you get to choose a sticker.
heh.
and they're so excited over that!
you would have thought that they were only there for the stickers!
o.o

and as i was looking at them while sitted on my kiddie-sized chair..a thought struck me..
How many of them would still be in church by the time they're 20?
Me hopes that it'll be all of them..by then..they ought to be in YF i reckon..
(:

and on the way home..while waiting for my bus after a bout of coffee with a friend..
i saw this boy..prolly only pri 1 or 2?
he was wiggling his butt and dancing his head off to the music that the Equal roadshow was blasting nearby..
'tis was funny..and while i was silently laughing..his mum caught be stifling a laugh...and she ended up laughing with me..
he was really funny...butt wiggling and all..
/thumbs up
and that's when i realised that...i kinda really like kids..
heh.

i felt the earth tremble under my feet.
the blinds in my office swayed.
and there were 3 sets mind you..
all swaying.
the walls seemed to vibrate just a little as well.
the walls are lousy..made of plywood or something..hollowish.

so freaky.

and im such as dodo..
i just sat there..jaw aslack.
should i run or not?

by the time i decided.

all was calm again.

-shrugs-

it was mightily cool.

seriously.

I went to work this morning thinking about a few issues..
to which i know the answers to..
but..
i'm not really quite sure of the verses that say so..

1) homosexuality.
2) abortion.

only had time to read up on the homosexuality issue before work started..
didn't had time to read on abortion tho..

i'm quite disturbed by the whole homosexuality..disease..i would think..that's really common in society nowadays..
i mean...starbucks girl likes girls..
and i thought i was fine with it..
but looking back...there should be so much things that wasn't fine.
anyway...i digress..but starbucks girl quitted on us last month..she's now at another company.
and the reason..
she broke up with her ex-girl.
and..
a week before she left..she hooked up with another girl.
within 1 meeting.
they went out to meet for the first time.
they got together.
it was THAT fast.

and i'm quite irked.

i mean..starbucks girl is a friend.
she's cool and all..
but..
darn..
after reading up and stuff..
i have to make a firm stand on this homosexuality issue i reckon.
it's a definite no-no..
it's stated in the Bible..
black on white.

and if our God hates homosexuality..
then..we should too..because we're His people.

so..
i hate homosexuality.
but..
not the people.

i hate the act of it..
but..
not the people.

-shrugs-

Clara shared a brilliant movie at Sunday School Sunday today.

and I strongly suspect that there's something in there...may be making some changes in my life..

we'll see how things go.

Watch the "Teddy Stallard Movie"

Your EQ is 113

50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick!51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese.71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely.91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that.111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt.131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin.150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.

today's super funny!
movie kaki and i were talking about the neighbour's replies and all lar..
then...
being chemistry majors..

J: I want to be like Potassium.
D: very reactive? and on fire for GOd ah?
J: displacement reaction... sacrificial protection...i sacrifice myself so that other metals won't corrode
D: ooh. Christ is the potassium. imagine that without him we are freaking going to hell
J: oh..quite true..after potassium is what ar? we be sodium ok?
D: hahaha..we try...we can only try..hahaha
J: as long as we don't end up as platinum
D: haha. yeah. that would be really sad.. inert. unpassionate. unwilling.
J: i mean..at least silver is better than platinum..

note: you need to have basic knowledge on the displacement reaction or the reactivity series to understand what this two geeks are talking about..secondary school chemistry is sufficient tho..
nothing too chim
:)

lalalalala...happy day.
i'm so sleepy.

I remember the days in nus where twin will joke about this vcf guy who lives near me..
she actually intro-ed us..but i sorta kinda forgot his name..anyway..we always refer to him as 'hao nan ren'...
and it's simply because...she thinks that he's a 'hao nan ren' and she keeps promoting him in front of me la...
sheese.

but i digress.

this entry is about my darling, beloved, neighbour!
HE IS A HAO NAN REN!
O___o

we're talking about the same guy who was SOOOOO irritating in sec 2!
cuz that's when i know him mar..

then he became a christian in poly...and it's a 180 deg change!
O__o
-impressed-

anyway...what happened today was...
i was on my way home from work..and i heard this piece of disturbing news on the radio.
1) some guy kenna hacked at telok blangah blk 63..which pertained to us..cuz our area mar..
2) some idiot threw a dog down from his flat in sembawang.

obviously i'm more concerned and disturbed over news 2..since the guy in news 1 was fine..just in hospital..and they caught the hacker..apparently some family dispute.

so...i msged him..
Me: Neighbour! Telok Blangah Blk 63 got someone kenna hack! den sembawang got some idiot threw a dog down frm a flat! My blood is boiling sia..i want to scold someone!
Him: You can scold me lor..
Me: wahahaha..but it's not your fault! Silly cow..heh..
Him: Cuz you wanna scold somemore.
Me: I'm very very impressed by you leh!! Your answer is like o.O you rock!! Cuz i'll never think of offering myself to kenna a scolding that I don't deserve..heh
Him: Haha. I love you as my friend..
Me: Pwoah. I so need to learn how to be more self-sacrificial. -impressed-

so...

/thumbs up

I heart heart heart viv!
she who entertains me at work with random nonsense on facebook.
like...licking me...and throwing ketchup at me...and other random nonsense!
hahaha.

i'm a facebooker lar.

heh.

ohhhh..
i'm like doing some random rubbish like trying to get movie kaki to buy me a bag/pouch to put my life app bible, wallet, and phone...and pens!
heh.
i realised that my bags are ALWAYS filled with unnecessary stuff..
they weigh a ton.
EVEN if all i have to do is to pop out to buy something in town etc.

so..
im still trying to hint at him to get me a pouch.
but...the smart bugger's like...trying to get me to go sks to buy present for a mutual friend..
thing is..
i have NO idea where SKS is!
O___o
i only know that it's at tiong bahru.
fullstop.

._.

i'm lousy..i know.

ohhhhhh
movie kaki's like...
can i just buy you a normal pouch?

-claps gleefully-

heh..at first..he was like...is your bday round the corner??
and im like..no..
but you can give me for random reasons like...
i'm your FRIEND...i'm your churchmate...i'm your senior in school.. etc.
-beams-

lalalalala.

/edit..i feel quite bad pressuring the poor guy to buy me a pouch when i'm the one who's working..heh..
it's the thought that counts!
:D
i'll go pouch shopping soon... :D

I got groped onboard 143!
in bright daylight!
by a total stranger!
and it was O.o

you see the hand coming towards you..
and you inch backwards..
BUT..
for every cm you move backwards..
the hand goes 2cm forwards..
and then..it makes contact.
and i'm like.
o.o

-in shock-

luckily the groper's a 10 month old baby girl called Gabrielle.
So cute i tell you..
with her 4 front teeth and pudgy hands.
so cute.

i mean..i can't scream and slap her right?
so...i was feeling super awkward i tell you.
anyway..
i even got to carry her twice!
once was because the maid wanted to close the pram..
the pram was in the way of everyone boarding the bus..
so i tried to help close it..
but it's super hard.so..
she handed the baby to me..
and she tried closing it..
in the end..she gave up..and took the baby back..
then after like a while..she was like...can you help carry her? i'll push it to the side..

i'm MORE then willing to help!
Gabrielle's SOOOO cute...
she has big eyes and she smiled at me..
and i melted..like a puddle of goo at her pudgy feet.
sighh.

and then...climax..
then she came back...
carried the baby and told me "God bless you.."
and i was bug-eyed..
i mean...to date...no stranger has told me that before!
i mean..WOW.
i was just expecting a Thank you...
or something along that lines..
but Wow.

i like.

Niceee.

oh...and after carrying the baby for like..a min or so..
i realise that she's super heavy!
Baby Gwen pales in comparison.
No fight.
and Baby Gwen's as heavy as a sack of rice!

Off to bed.
Gotta work tmr.

So exciting....not.
