heyyyy

woo~! One week hiatus from blogging gee..if you call that a hiatus. Hahaz..so here I am now, all ready to plonk my heavy arse on my new swivel chair to start on my verbal diarrhoea. Okay..I'm getting a lil rusty here..hmm..where should I start. Okay..lets start from the last sunday's service at church. Yes. The Combined Easter Sunday worship..(hey..i got no hidden agenda ya..**winks**). I was really looking forward to the baptism part, cause 2 of my friends were going to be baptised that day. Simple baptism that has so much significance attached to it, fond memories as well.

Well, my baptism was 3 yrs ago, and since at that time, the new church buliding was not up yet, so Esther and I were baptised at sea. Really nice experience, and funny moments as well. I remember the sea bed was not really even, so you may start wading in from the shallow end and then suddenly find yourself dipping in to a much deeper end. And so I was wearing thongs. As in slippers..now what were you thinking huh?! okay..i digressed..anyways, you will have to go under the water and come up, after the Pastor has said a prayer. Since the sea bed was pretty uneven, when I stood up, I lost my footing and dipped into the sea again..and i lost grip of one thong..So I was searching for them, and luckily it floated up some distance away..there..my beloved bright orange thong. It is the super cheapskate trail slippers, which used to be in rage amongst the lians and the bengs in the 19 hundreds..yep that kind. And it was really kind of ridiculous, cause I had to swim over in the baptism robe to get the orange thong..fond memories though. Really liked the place, serene..quiet..beside the sea =)

There were 7 people baptised into the church that day. Funny how it was only till last sunday did i truly learned how to appreciate the church choir. How they just sang in perfect harmony..listening to them always bring me goosepimples, and a very fuzzy feeling inside. There was the adult choir and the youth choir..it actually gave me this impetus to want to go and join the choir too. But on second thoughts..hmm..the choir can really do without a tone deaf crow. Seriously cant hold a tune. Like mother like daughter..hahaz..this sounds so disrespectful, but my mum cant sing either, but my dad sure can. Like my mum, we sing hymns like theres only one note in the whole song, either that if not we its like a total new song that we are singing, one that only both of us can musically understand. Outrageously off-key. tsk tsk..so its really at times so nice to just sit down, close your eyes, hear the choir sing. Appreciate the beauty, but better to not partake in it, lest shatter the beauty of it.

Hmm..so after indulging in my random musings, I haven actually gotten in the real topic. Hahaz..but anyways after the service, I was a happy person. Hmm..the service did me good, and..so did the unexpected ego boost! =) yeeaahh baby.. so it just left me grinning like a complete idiot, and the grin lasted one week? Hahaz..I must trust my gut instincts.

The rest of the week was pretty not bad. Surprisingly, I really grew to like my tuition kid a lot. She's really fun and cheeky, not the usually girly kind. Ya..though maybe she is really a bit tneh-ish when it comes to the time to give homework. There was this once she misplaced her house keys (she's very blur) and since her house is along the corridoor, she asked me to climb out of the window to go out. And last lesson I did that cause I was really running late. She's just different from the regular kids, mature for her age as well...she said that Singaporean kids are more naive, but more helpful than China kids..(coz she stayed in china for a few years, before coming to s'pore).I thought that was quite an observation coming from a ten year old. So although the pay isn't fantabulously stunning, I'm gonna hold on this tuition, simply because the she is really very loveable.

This week is thus just a sweet one..no pms-y bitching. Hmm..maybe a bit yesterday when my dear friend whom I talked to on msn commented on something that didn't some easy on my ears. And woo..the bitch in me came out, and grumbled a few less-than-kind words. Ya..hmm..apart from that..all's well.

I'm looking forward to the next church comm meeting..hmm..hahaz..and phew..luckily the report is done up, now just have some loose ends to tie, and I hope sunday's meeting will be goody! =)

Lots to smile about..life is beautiful! (but exams are not)...someone pass me the barf bag...please..haha
