This Christmas

~He's the reason for this season~

Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Let us remember why we celebrate Christmas each year.
Not for the presents,
The lovely holidays,
Nor for the fellowship this season brings.
But for without Him we are nothing.

As Christmas draw nearer....

Thought of the day

It's hard to shine beside another brighter star


But you're a flower, not a star....
Swaying with the breeze
Fleeting like a dandelion
Shrinking like a Touch-me-not

The elites were playing last night.


Grow at your own pace, child....
Rain or shine, seeds flies.

Not every instance of criticism is pejorative.

The battle between good and evil is doomed!!!!
Whahahahahahahaha!!!!!


My delight is
in a child, growing up so fast.
Laughing along to Mr. Bean's antics.
Wanting my company.
I adore her even more now for finally leaving the phase of hating me.
Haha!!

My delight is
in a room, all to myself.
in the bed I sleep in.
it's home to me.
I wonder how I will get used to a room a third it's size now.
Haha!!


Blessed Christmas to all!!!

Thought of the day

~~~~It's total bliss to fall asleep at night after a late night out with good friends where laughter rings out boisterously, with the knowledge that the blessings in your life are very much alive and back.....and a pleasant surprise waiting for you in the morning.~~~~

I can't believe this week leading up to Christmas is as good as ever!!

I can't wait for those coming back to Penang on Christmas Eve!!!! 5 more days to go!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh................!!!!

Blessed Christmas, everyone!!!

Beautiful weekend ending on a rainy note

My weekends keep getting better and better this Christmas season!

Spent Saturday morning painting 'One Way' signboards for the KCP.
I think this year's KCP is so much better, with lesson sessions with the kids.
The youth of GROW really made a great job entertaining them with the games and the mime show.....
Haha!
I missed lunch and there was so many nuggets left over that I gobbled some up.
Right after that....
Went to A. Amelia's house for their Christmas party cum Celebration of Hope project.
It was sooooooooooo good to see Yi Ling there.
And Mel and Legs came back from KL just that afternoon itself!
It sure was fun whacking Kong Kong's head after such a long time!
Hahahahaha!!!
Too bad Mi had to go back to Singapore so early and we just missed her by a few days!!! :(
And Chor Kong's MIA in UK....
Else ar.....
I really hope one day all of us will be able to gather for a 'family' photo. But so far the max we have gathered is 4 people each time. Always got people MIA.
*sigh*

BUT......
I now have a very good reason to go down KL again middle next year!!!
Mel and Legs getting married! Congratulations, Ama!! Kong Kong!!
(*okay enough...i'm suppose to keep that news low-profile)

Yippee for my trip!!! Hahahaha, sounds so selfish! But really....it's such good timing.
This year was February and July..., May would make it 9 months in between...good good timing to get another bag!!!
And I managed to secure a place to crash in KL for the next couple of years...... *wicked grin*
Hahahahahahaha!!!!

I love the warm fuzzy feeling I get when I meet up with old friends. Especially those that has been really a blessing to me. And at A. Amelia's.....it's just
*bliss*
Yeah, too bad I lose my appetite. I'm not sure it's from the happiness or the unnecessary worry of what happened this year will happen again flashed into my mind the moment the wedding date was announced....
I think I've made a promise that I might regret..... The problem is I can't remember the exact words I said when the promise was demanded of me. *sigh*
A lot of things can happen in the next 5 months however.....and besides I have alternative options this time around. So, someone please slap me out of my worry filled imaginative mind on what's going to happen and leave it to God!!! Pray pray....

Sunday morning, A. Joanna showed us her trip to Israel. It was really amazing that she had the opportunity to go to Israel. After all, in Malaysian passport it is written except Israel. And they built churches wherever events happened. Many of them had mosaic paintings on their walls, symbolizing the miracles or event that happened there. After service I grabbed her little kid and swing her round and round and round.
Hahahahaha!!!
I thank God she didn't cry and wanna find daddy! Instead she retaliate abit and wanna hit me back. Haha! Last time, squeezing her cute cheeks abit would have brought on an outburst, which scares the wits out of me! As if I tormented her!

Last night, was at Fort Cornwallis, catching the Celebration of Joy. It was interesting to watch the crows there gliding each time before they land because it was so close to the seaside the wind helped in their aerodynamics. Too bad it rained so heavy before I get to watch Antenna dance!!!! There was a good song where they integrated 'Joy to the World' with 'Joy! To the world', I thought that was really really cool.
Getting wet was nice in small quantities, but having my shoes flooded up and leaving black ink all over my feet is a no-no!! I especially hate it when people walking past me really near splash all that mud water INTO my shoes. That's the yuckiest!!! What more I had to wear sandals to the office this morning!

All the ink marks showing.
I am plagued by back ache this morning. Standing and sitting straight for long hours can do a lot of harm, to someone not used to it.
I'm in pain yet grinning.
Hahahahahaha! I'm obviously in so much pain delirious laughter occurs!

KCP Rehearsal

Heheheheheheeeeee!

I had a miracle night. No long lecture on 'driving back all the way to BM just for church...etc etc'

Heheheheheheeeeee!

I guess it's true, when you choose to honor God, honor your parents.....things can turn out smoothly. I keep telling people I was going to sneak into BM and sneak back out without my dad's knowledge, but the more I thought about it.... the more guilty I felt. It's not lying, but omission of the truth.....is a scandal of it's own. I figure this long lecture about church....won't be as bad as IF anything were to happen to me driving across the bridge so late at night coming back to Penang and being exposed at that point.

I thank God he was getting ready for work when I called to say I'm coming back. Haha, he didn't have time to say much and I just crushingly reminded him not to lock the door when he gets back after work. I thank God his car didn't see my car driving back. Haha, that has happened a few times and provoke a few unnecessary comments. I really really really thank God that he was all quiet when I got back at 11pm. Because by the time 10pm came in church, and we were still having rehearsal and gift packing my heart was growing colder and colder......in anticipation of the dreaded long lecture. The power of prayer can do wonders.

And I did laughed. Whole heartedly, belly out laughs.
We have the craziest kid's praise song to play!!! And I'm making alien spaceship sounds from the keyboard!!! It's a kid's party, so we CAN go crazy!!! I tell you some true colors are only seen this month of the year! Heheheheheheeeeee!
And thank God I didn't bite on my teeth. You know sometimes when you laugh too hard, you might accidentally close your mouth shut just a little too hard when trying to control your laughter.......

Waking up at 6am this morning, despite having bloodshot eyes right now, it was worth it for the night I had. The fellowship in preparation for Christmas.....Hahaha! Besides, I manage to go to my favorite breakfast van this morning, and they just on the lights at the same moment i stop my car in front of them. Ting! Like a fairy wand work!

Heheheheheheeeeee!
