MERRY CHRISTMAS PEOPLE!

christmas, for more than 2000 years, has been the most celebrated festival of the year. it's the season of giving, regardless of religion and age, people buy presents to blessed their loved ones, to see their precious smile. This christmas, i must say, has been the most memorable one that i've ever celebrated. I've received more xmas gifts and cards from friends that i didnt expect. Thank you all for the love!

We had our Christmas celebration as Chui's house. We started the cell group with JINGLE BELLS and FELIZ NAVIDAD. it's really fun and heartwarming to greet the others with christmas greetings and see their priceless smile on their faces. how i wish i could owe a camera! ok. that'll be one of my resolutions next year. And after the songs, all of us shared of how God has been tremendously faithful and graceful towards us this year. i couldnt help but cry as i was sharing my walk with god this year. He has been faithful when i was tired and faith-less. He's given me strength and faith during my A levels. He's given friends to encourage me. Most importantly, i could finally forgive somebody who has hurt my family and i deeply. i thank god for teaching me to have a bigger heart. "forgive and forget" may be cliche, it takes seconds to say it, but years to learn it. i've learnt to release the hurt to god, rather than holding on to the bitterness.

god is good.

AND, we counted down to Christmas using.......... TELETEXT. okay, faints. hahahaha. that was definitely my first time counting down with it! and we were back to our games. "guess who" is a witty game. i'll always get confused with the yes and no questions. and i'll remember surina and nan and wei wei for laughing at me. RARRR. well, we did other stuffs before sleeping, and i think i fell sick that night. hope i didnt pass any flu bug to my friends!

today.
finally had dinner with some friends that i havent met up for longg longg time! but i was quite upset that some of them actually invited other friends for the dinner. i dont like it. i have said it before and i will say it again. when people invite you to go for dinner or gathering, dont bring other friends that we dont know without telling us can. firstly, i'll not feel appreciated and secondly, they'll feel left out and start complaining. Anyway, they were smart enough to leave early.

so we could finally talk seriously, and i realised alot of things that happened in their lives. unglorious stuff. i was glad that i was there to encourage them instead of condemning them. then, i remembered that Jesus came to save us and not to condemn people. i got to experience it today. Benny told us about his broken relationship with his girlfriend, it was bad. but instead of pounding "wah laus and you should have done this done that" into his ears, we started to empathise and cheer him up.
thank god we chose the latter. otherwise, we would have worsened his already rotten mood. he felt better after the whole thing. C:

it has been a long day today. oh, i cut my hair! haha, and i kinda liked the hairdresser's cologne. OOPS.

Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't know what to respond when i saw your message. The only thing i could do was to delete the message and act blur. I'm comfortable with how things are now that we would just message each other and call once in a while. I treasure this friendship and i hope that you do too,nothing more nothing less. Or maybe, this is just one sided view of mine, maybe, you talk the same to your friends as well, maybe, im just thinking too much. ARRRG. WHY DO GUYS THINK SO MUCH!

Went to chui's house to chill with jin. i especially liked the atmosphere today because there wasnt a need to fill the emptiness with weather talks. i dont like to weather talk, i find it so superficial, and at the end of the day, the latter will just forget the company and the conversation- whats the point right.

i find that for myself, imo, i need to give a 100% attention when i'm talking to somebody.. i'm beginning to realise that it's not an easy task for our friends to open up their hearts and share with us issues that they have been facing, and bottling up in them. sure takes a great deal of courage and trust to be able to open up and share the woes with our friends. even i personally find it so. so my beloved friends, give full attention to others who are talking to you, speak words of love, encouragement, and affirmations because these are the elements that are so devoid in the world we live today. it makes a very big difference.

freely u sow, freely u reap.
