Christmas activities!

Finally, i've got more than enough reasons to blog again! So, for the past a week, life has been pretty much exciting and interesting. Oh yes, did i forget to say that i just came back from genting? Anyway, i'll elaborate on that if i have the time and energy to do it.

As you all know, 25th is Christmas day! And if i haven't greeted you MERRY CHRISTMAS, here's one going out to all of you! MERRY CHRISTMAS! And to Jesus, definitely this day is His day, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I shall continue with the many events that have occured. Ever since 21, which is a Wednesday if i'm not wrong, we had a house party organised by my cell group, which was themed "All i want for christmas is..." It's the usual practice that the cell groups organised christmas home parties. And i thank God all of my friends came for it! Thank you people! Hope you all had fun, because i did had fun though.

And then following the 23rd, well nothing too glamorous about, but was at black. It was fun too! Thanks Cal! And ever since that night, my body clock's screwed up until now! I reached home at about 7 in the morning?

And then the next day, which was the 24th, Christmas eve, i woke up at about 4 o'clock and before i knew it, i had to get dressed up and rushed down to church for carolling! I must admit that this year's carolling's really good and exciting! I had lot's of fun! I just love carolling! We sang and took many many pictures. I'll be putting up some of the pictures of my blog, so you can have a look at them!

And carolling totally stole the limelight away from the "fun" at orchard. Was pretty much disappointing to see how would some people celebrate Christmas with the least meaning of just arming themselves with spray cans on each hand, blindly and annoyingly spraying at any random passerby. Town didnt even look like town for a moment, it looked as if a grenade war had just begun and there were empty shells lying all over the streets. I felt pretty much apprehensive and at the same time annoyed, because the last thing that i would like to see myself in is to be filled with foam all over from head to toe, feeling all so sticky, when you've actually took so much time and effort just to dress up for the occasion. So being already so turned off, within half an hour, i left for nick's house.

It was pretty fun over at nick's house. I felt a sense of relieved because we managed to escape from the street of chaos as so we perceived. We went for supper with his bro at some old coffee shop, somewhere near tanjong pagar and then left for nick's house. We didn't really sleep until at about 6 in the morning?

So it was another day that i didnt get good sleep, because i had to wake up at 9 which was 2 hours away, and then i had to rush home. To get changed for christmas service and i had to pack my stuff, to get ready for the genting trip which i'd be leaving for on that night. After christmas service, although i was hit with extreme fatigue, i felt happy giving away some of the presents i bought for my church mates! I'm sorry if i didnt get you any gifts, because a hole is really burning in the pocket! Forgive me yeah! There's one more thing that actually kept me surviving which was the lunch reception after christmas service, the one and only thing that got enticed and caught my attention, it could be none other than the the "Chocolate fountain!" It was this machine that creates a fountain of chocolate sauce and you're suppose to dip fruits or mashmallows into them and after that take a bite...SENSATIONAL! Love chocolates! It was really good!

Still, i didnt sleep at all. After everything ended, i left for my aunt's place for more christmas celebrations. By the time i reached my aunt's place, i couldnt stand the lethargy and thought of going to sleep, but my dad said that he wanted to go down to queenstown and of course i was tempted by it and i relented, i followed him. It was a wrong choice, because my head felt super heavy, i thought it could almost spin and if at any point of time i'd to close my eyes, i would fall into a very deep sleep.

At about 10 in the night, still on the 25th, i left for genting with my school mates. By that time, i couldn't stand it anymore, i knew i needed to sleep, so immediately after all the administrating issues were settles and the bus arrived, i threw my bag into the bus, and raced to the designated seat and fell asleep.

Madness, i tell you! I was exhausted from all the activities! But even then, i couldn't have sleep that was non-interrupted because i had to pass through the customs and settle all the immigration issues. So my sleep was pretty much interrupted here and then.

And when we reached genting at about 6 in the morning? That's the worst timing you could ever reach genting. Because we couldn't check into our hotels any time soon until 1230 and that will be 6 and a half hours away! Tired! I declared tired and i went to the nearest starbucks, bought a drink and doze off to sleep until about 11.

Ah i wish i could blog even further about the activities that happened for the past few days, but i'm getting tired...So i shall continue tomorrow then! Goodnights everyone!

God bless!

the trouble with life

............Situation 1....................
Person A: Hey! There's an event i'd like you to go for, would you be free?
Person B: Alright then!

and then a few days later...

Person A: Hello again, today's the event, so you're going right?
Person B: Erm..I'm sorry...but..i don't think i'll be able to make it..So sorry!
Person A: But i thought you could make it?
Person B: Sorry!
Person A: .....okay then.

...................Situation 2..................
Person A: Hey could i borrow your discount card from you?
Person B: Yeah sure. When do you need it?
Person A: Pretty soon, so when can i get it from you?
Person B: Anytime!
Person A: Great! See you!

And then a couple of days later...

Person A: Hey can i meet you tomorrow or the day after to get the card from you?
Person B: Erm..i'm really sorry, i can't meet you tomorrow or the day after.
Person A: Oh why?
Person B: Well, i've already got plans for the day.
Person A: ....Okay..so when can i get from you the card again?
Person B: Oh shit, i'm really sorry, i just lend the card to another friend! I'm really sorry!
Person A: ...Sigh..alright..


Familiar isn't it? Daily occurences.. Nowadays, it's hard to please others, yet it's hard to please yourself with others. When somebody turns you down, should you get angry? Should you just be understanding? Both sides aren't good anyway.

If you get angry with the other party, they might evade and avoid you. While if you be nice, somehow, one day, they might even take it for granted and conveniently climb over your head. And you'd think to yourself, what did i get at the end of all this? And nothing comes to your mind, except disappointment and frustration. And then the more you think about it, still nothing.

Yes, the answer is nothing. You dont gain anything out of being nice nor being firm.

The bloody trouble with life. And i can still believe people could really say, 'relax'. Don't you think to yourself sometimes, what's the use of saying sorry, if everything's just going to be undone and nobody gives a shit, because 'sorry' is just a word of escapism and at the end enthrone themselves into oblivion?

Bitterness you can say about me right now. But seriously, three words, one phrase, I HAD ENOUGH.

rui en!

Did you see rui en on television last night!! Shit, she threw me off my seat the moment the camera flashed and paused at her and when i even had knowledge about her clinching an award for herself, she made me flipped off the seat and i could hardly make any noise, because the bloody camera was FOCUSED on her! She's damn pretty! =)

But somehow she doesnt seem very happy, i feel that she's not happy about something, others say that she's arrogant. What do you think?

p.s but i still think she's pretty.
