Wah so many things happened in the past few days, and all bloggable material to boot, that I don't know where to begin.... They include two very very ultra super funny incidents that happened (which I don't think I can write about in one post =Pp)

This post is quite long, so be patient =) Sorry I know it may be hard to read

1. I shifted room to my previous room which I shared with my brother when I was in lower secondary (until I couldn't stand his sleeping with a nightlight, and he couldn't stand my rather spooky talking in my sleep), cos my aunt and grandmother are moving back to their flat in bedok (where I spent a lot of my pre-primary school life =D).... So I had a window, and a proper bed haha...

In moving my stuff, I also unearthed a lot of old clothes....

My scout uniform, which I lovingly prepared every pre-CCA night from P3 onwards... Plus, of course, all the badges which, for a cadet scout, were our pride and joy haha... On the left sleeve, the Bronze Arrow (I was about get silver when the syllabus changed or something), on the right, the crime prevention and swimming badges, and on the left chest, the yellow Assistant Sixer badge (I got promoted to Sixer in P6 and then my six was immediately disbanded cos the teacher then decided to split us as levels blahhhh)... Hoho such memories.... And what a tiny person I used to be too!

A history of AHS PE shirts... Pity my sec. 1 one has been thrown away already =( The one which looked like a cleaner's shirt, except the right collar had a red embroidered eagle)... Then there was the dark green one which didn't fade which I wore in sec. 3, the dark green which faded like siao which I wore in sec. 2 (it looks bigger than the sec. 3 one in the photo, don't know why =/) and the button-less striped one which I'm still using occasionally haha...

Heard they changed the PE shirt AGAIN! This time there's less green and more white or something...

But anyway at the end of the day, my grandmother came back to stay, so I'm back in my old room, which actually I don't mind aha...

2. Christmas Party at cell group! It was a success, a decent number of people came, the food was good as were the games haha.... "Chng Chng Chng" nearly killed us all cos it was so funny!!

Shawn trying to pass a highly distorted message to Chee Kit, who is looking quite confused (and I don't blame him ahaha!)

The testimonies were good (especially Yen Chin's, which was aimed at Dezhi and I, as it was about his life in NS) as was the worship (always a pleasure to sing carols!) and of course, we got to meet new people... Hopefully the group will expand haha

3. Class outing after church on sunday after our Christmas service (or as near as it came to that)... It was not as disastrous as I feared it would be *phew* went to eat at New York New York.... I ate fish and chips, which is a relatively and stereotypically weird dish to be eating at an american place haha... Then we had candy floss hoho... Literally eat sugar and air... Then various people had to rush off, so since Enjie, Alon, Keefe (who later broke off) and I had nothing to do, we decided to go to Liling's gospel service thing at her church at Ang Mo Kio.

As it happened, the train at City Hall was so packed that by the time the automated "Doors closing" came on, the 5 of us hadn't got on yet, so Liling and I ran along the length of the train and leapt into the adjacent door, even as the thing went "beepbeepbeepbeepbeep" and the door just missed my leg =D so we were calling Enjie they all to meet us at Somerset (cos we had spent a significant amount of time catching our breaths and laughing heheh)

So we alighted at Somerset, waved to Stella and Christl and waited... And lo! the next train came with the usual fanfare of "mind the platform gap" and there was this lady with five little kids who were trying to get in at the same time before the passengers could alight (as my HSVed classmate said, "typical singaporeans") so there was a mini jam at the door, and we were being so entertained that it apparently slipped our minds to go to another door... So by the time I stuck my big head in, the door was already closing... And much as I didn't look forward to NS, I didn't want to be decapitated either, so I had to withdraw my cranium and both of us watched the train whizz off.

The funny side struck us at the same time and we laughed until we neared (or for me lar =Pp) asphyxiation ahaha! I've never seen two bunches of people miss the MRT consecutively before! I mean, it only happens once in a lifetime or something! Man.... Sigh... anyway we caught them up at AMK in the end...

The church service was nice.... Sang "And Can it Be" among some others... The message was followable also... Interesting to talk to the other members of the church, who were very friendly also... It reminded me of my old church actually, or what I can remember about it... Hmm maybe all churches with the "bethesda" in the name are all somewhat like that?

Yup so anyway that was it for Sunday...

4. Christmas Day itself passed nicely... Spent a bit of the day with classmates, both present and past, and a lot of fun conversations, learned a lot about NS from Mursjid, and went to watch Curse of the Golden Flower with family, which is a really weird show... Some unanswered questions =/

Well, so that its for now then! Fencing camp next on the list!
