A Good End of the Week
This is gonna be wat someone once called "laundry list" blog :) Hey, my "phantom" blog reader out there?
Attended the Da Vinci Code talk organised by Campus Crusade on Thu. Dr. Lockhart was the speaker. Very impressive, Sir! He joked that I was the "distinguished alumni" :) Now I understand better how to approach the novel. Definitely, it has sparked interest on my part to research more on church history.
It was also a great time of bonding with the VCF and other peeps. Talked a lot to Eunice and sat with her, Shu Huang and Robert behind Dr. Lockhart to give him moral support. Robert ah, said he would call me to give me his hp number during convo, but only called me that night lor! Tsk tsk. Felt especially happy; it was as though I was back in NUS again. Shared with them a little abt working exp. Was just thinking how valuable it is to share our experiences from a Christian perspective so as to help ease this potentially traumatic journey into the working life. If only I was wise enough to join such activities like Crossroads back then. But I am blessed to be in the Marketplace Christian Network and am still learning a lot. Hopefully there will be a chance for me to contribute in the near future.
Had a lovely little picnic on Fri morning with Pearl at Botanic Garden.
Spent the weekend in JB with Pearl, Shizhi & Hong Xian. Almost everybody I told warned me abt the high crime rate in JB, making me a bit worried. Raine had to add fuel to fire by msging me:"If it happens, it happens." before the trip, referring to being robbed. Tsk tsk. Such lack of concern for your 11-year old fren xia :( But by the grace of God, we came back in 1 piece, despite having moments where your heart simply palpitate, like crossing the road via a secluded overhead bridge where anything could have happened to you up there.
Went to Jusco, a huge shopping centre that reminded me a lot of the shopping centres in Jakarta. Experimented with taking bus ride there. Realised that knowing Malay is quite useful for getting around there. The guys had some uber scandalous photos taken of themselves, which I promised to show to their wives or work associates when they bec successful, whichever ones come first :p Hiaks. Also sang some ktv, which was fun as usual. Nice, relaxing holiday. Slept like a log when I reached home.
