The Opera Populaire

Quite exhausted from e last few days of running abt and exercising. Finally had my retreat yesterday! Though it wasn't like enlightenment, but I did feel so comforted and more able to handle wat has been happening to me with a Godly peace. Think God was telling me that He will carry me thru my trials and tribulations. I then sat watching kids playing by the beach, owners walking their dogs and couples walking tog with that dreamy look they have. The sky was extremely clear in a nice sort of way...God made it not rain like I asked Him to. Peace.

Then I made my way to Parkway Parade, where I haven't been to in like donkey years. Think it has been renovated...e outside at least, looks nicer than I remembered. Hehe...was thinking maybe I shd ask Kevin or Samantha out, since if I'm not wrong they live nearby. But had to go for Appreciation Dinner by my VCF Thu CG, so I left. Dear Florence's house, at Water Place apartment in Kallang, is beautiful, but so inconvenient! There is one 1 service to her house and it's every 15 min!

But we all had so much fun catching up. I miss being in Godly fellowship. Pamela shared with me how she was healed from her illness and I was so encouraged by it. And I found out from Eunice that apparently she got e news that I got 2nd Lower from Jebro, who heard it from dunno who lah! Wa lau....gossip, gossip xia! There is like no secret in our Hon class one! But at least it's not something I mind ppl knowing.

E food was so good! A bit too much potatoes but who cares! I am glad that I bought 2 more bottles of drinks, cos it was just nice! Hhaha...reminds me of how God gave e Israelites manna..."those who collected much din have too much, and those who gathered little din have too little". How apt! Hhahaha. Adeline makes e nicest brownies, tho I dun usually like brownies. Prefer cheesecake. And Cheryl made a cool bread pudding, which looked like Christmas pudding!

I talked with Melissa and Ailing, e 2 newest additions to my CG this sem. So full of crap! They both feel that they won't live beyond 30 yrs old! But this is not some morbid thoughts la...think more than that, I am glad that their faith is so strong as to believe that they will be by God's side then, so they have no fear of dying. But! The main thing is that we turned it into some kind of joke. Jenn's revolutionary rotating coffin. For those couples who had promised tian chang ti jiu to each other....if u both had always wanted to die on e same day, same month and same year, this is just wat u need! A coffin that allows both of u to be in e same coffin! It rotates to show ur family and frens both of u! Saves space, saves money! If both of u dun die on e same day, month and year, no worries! We have e best preservation services! Ok ok this is beginning to sound morbid! But e actual intention is to show that Jenn got some entrepreneurial spirit! Hahahaha...

Yay...how exciting! Tmr and on Sun is Shaoyun's wedding! I really wished them many marital bliss!
