I love taking care of my grandma, somehow I feel real mom-ish. Spent the first half of my day studying at her place. She kept feeding me with yakult, kit-kat and twisties! Guess I was dozing off ever so often so she thought those would boost me up but it just made me feel fat and lazy haha.

you tell me...
So after 9 months I finally got on the plane again. Only that this time, my parents weren't coming back with us. I was excited because I had this great plan, I thought it was so perfect! I only told 3 people which was a must to tell because of some situation about my arrival home.
I was told that the Naz youths were having a combine meeting with different BP churches the next day on Sat. I was going to surprise them big time! I was even thinking of how funny their looks would be when I suddenly pop out! There was no way I would fail in this mission.
There were no flight delays, we got our lugguage and got a warm welcome back to Singapore from the Chos. What a day it already had been. We drove in the morning from Mae Sai to Chiangrai. Then a flight to Bangkok and after waiting for hours, a flight home landing at 9:30pm. As we walked to the escalator to get the car from the carpark, I got the shock of my life!
Out of nowhere this crazy bunch of youths literally jumped out in front of me! SURPRISE! If I were any older I would have a heart attack, I should get some health insurance. Worst thing was everyone knew about it. Lois and even my parents back in Mae Sai! Can't exactly remember what went through my mind at that moment. I wanted to run but my legs were rooted to the ground, I wanted to cry but no tears flowed. All I could do was repeatedly say thank you... 2 words which had a million emotions in it. I was and still am lost for words.
Sadly, my plans were a big O failure. But there will always be a next time! Just you wait... I've still so many more great years with these wonderful friends, each a special gift to me. To mich, tan, kim, rhea, evan, tep, aaron, mick, daniel, zac, sam and gabs you guys are becoming way too sneaky! Better stop it arh give me a chance haha.
Went for supper. Some prata place at Bedok Simpang and as we ate it did not feel that 24hrs ago I was in a whole different world from them.

Please Pray...
Answers to prayer often come in unexpected ways. We pray, for instance, for a certain virtue; but God seldom delivers Christian virtues all wrapped in a package and ready for use. Rather He puts us in situations where by His help we can develop those virtues. -C. R. Findley
:: I'm suffering from a throat infection. Very swollen tonsils, thick jelly liquid coming off my nose. Being sick is no fun when there's so many things I need to get done. Let's hope I get better tomorrow.
:: Thank God there was one last seat left. Taking my GED (General Educational Development) back in Spore on 4th Sept. Time: 11:00am onwards. Needing good time management, continue to work hard and pray harder :)
:: 6th Sept as I speak to a youth group at Bukit Panjang Church for their mission week. May God hide me behind His cross, give me His words and just use me as He wills.
:: 11th Sept as I take one session to share on faith and fully trusting God at my home school conference in Melaka.
:: Got an email today to speak at MGS primary school during chapel time. I'm still thinking through it seeking the Lord, pray that He'll show me if I should take this on too.
:: For the Cho's grandmama, 1st stage cancer in the colon. Operation on 25th August. Pray for peace in her heart and full reliance on God as she awaits the day.

it bites n doesn't let go
Death of baby tuh-keh. The ultimate video! But if you're a reptile lover -don't watch! This would be our 5th kill. Kids, if you're watching this don't try it at home!
Just found out that these are the godzilla of the gecko world. Definately not to be messed with. They multiply by the day! Their eggs are like mothballs and their droppings are thumb size huge, smelly like anything. Why must they always hide in our bathrooms! Really freaks me out.
