it was a nice weekend, and i'm just melting with happiness.
firstly, fop was good! i enjoyed every minute of it.. dont know, perhaps even the walking from kallang mrt to the indoor stadium. i mean, isnt it part of the whole experience? =) and the singing, the dancing, the presence of God filling the whole place.. it was just good. what more can words say? even though supper turned out to be a fiasco, but well, its the fellowship that mattered i guess. i wouldnt trade in walking under the (barely!) starlit sky with stef listening to my ipod and singing all kinds of songs, on or off key, for anything. haha it was just simple, comfortable fun that we had, and i like it. =)
martin smith's voice was absolutely droolworthy. i just cant place in words what i felt just listening to it. it could practically melt my inner being and well, i could stay up all night just reveling in that voice that God blessed him with. that lucky guy. heh.
saturday's w n i was good too! adrian was, like xiang said before, a good worship leader. one of the better ones we have in ym. and of course, haha esmond's first try at leading! that was good too! despite what you say, esmond, you did great! =P
answers in genesis, however, turned out to be quite disappointing. as dengzhi put in, there are
way too many commercial breaks.
cell group on sunday, today, was conducted as usual.. sharing and stuff. said some things which i regret saying, and i wish i could take back my words. dunno la. sigh. i didnt even know that i was feeling that horrid, till second service when darren asked me quietly if i was ok. admittedly, i was disconcerted by his astute perception, and my thoughts went sprawling but, well, what could i say, really.
left service early to go down to serangoon gardens to join bj and his church friends for lunch. ate fish and chips! super nice. then went to amanda's house and had ag there. (their ag is our cg) and so.. i realized many things when i joined in their worship and bible study discussion. just good la, though i wish marvin could have been much less difficult.
and i wish i had the kind of relationship that amanda has with her mother. its so obvious that they are so close, and can behave as sisters with each other. and her mum takes such a keen interest in her friends, and sigh. dunno la. i just wish my mum was more like her. anyway, amanda's mom baked this super delicious carrot cake and i was such a greedy pig, i polished off my plate, wanting more. even after sharing another slice with bj, i was still left rather unsatisfied but good manners held me back from asking for more. heh. its really SUPERB la. better than any carrot cake bought outside. with the cream cheese slathered on top, its absolutely
delicious. and i'm not joking. arggggh.
came back home with bj after ag and he watched a little bit of naruto while i changed hammie's cage. i was super touched when he decided to accompany me all the way to bedok and then go back to bishan on his own as i had to be at aunty ivy's house for dinner. another reason why i said i'm melting with joy!
yeap, so that in all sums up my weekend and i wish it didnt have to close, but it already has. school will be resuming tomorrow and i look towards it with dread, a lump in my throat and with nothing you can call motivation. sigh.
every day is a new day ♥
