what a busy weekend!

had a super busy n tiring weekend, i'm so exhuasted now i can't get through the day without dozing off man! i really need to find something to wake me up. i can't take anymore caffeine cos i'm allergic to it, n besides, i don't like hot coffee.

actually to be completely honest, i wanted to call in sick n sleep away the whole morning, the weather is so nice n cooling n rainy days are always perfect for sleeping in! i'm just so freaking tired i keep falling asleep at the com every 5 mins, its a struggle to stay awake! i have to resort to SMSing, emailing n biting my tongue n facebooking n blogging n going toilet or something, just to keep me awake enough to reach lunch time!!

anyway after fri cg, we had some ktv session, then went with william to TPY for supper, then sat morning woke up late for SF prac, but as usual, everyone was also late, i took a cab n it costs me like, $15 for the trip! ridiculously expensive, used to be only $10 plus i think.

after practicing crossing over for like half an hour or so, we went to astons for lunch, they got the orders a little wrong, as usual, the food was quite nice, but a little slow that day. rohan n christine's fish esp!

after that we took the LONGG ride home on bus 76 from marine parade to my house, took about 45 min i think, joan was a bit sick by the time we reached home! then prepared the birthday card n gift for mindice, then prepare for her party, then after makaning at the function room, we to vivocity to meet the rest of the SF pple to go sentosa for the gig at 9 pm.

oh man, we waiting so long for the gig! it started at about midnight, n we played the usual flightphesy n FHW, but due to the overly enthu audience, we played the space jam beats sequence, as well as hot summer, and ended with crazy army. quite fun n energetic through out e performance, a bit funny as well, SF pple blinded by the smoke n lights n colliding into each other. haha!

we played for a full 20+ mins, with hot summer, nana, crazy army, etc, everything except budm! the crowd was half drunk probably, but super responsive n excited, i think i heard a comment that we were even better than the fireworks. haha. i think overall it was a great performance, thank God i remembered the crazy army parts, mostly at least! smoked my way through some parts before looking at what Ian was playing to remember what to play! hahaha..

after that we went to Mac at harbour front for supper n debriefing, until about 3 am before we finally left. got paid on the spot, so yeah, thank God for the blessing, which i in turn was able to bless Joan w money for food n transport.

sunday had a quarrel w Joan over several issues on the way to church, i was pretty grumpy cos she was late n there was a miscom, n we ended up reaching expo close to 11, just before the announcements. but it was worth the trip rushing for service, Ed silvoso was really the kind of preacher businessman that i like to listen to, a totally marketplace, cultural mandate kind of message, encouraging, inspiring n interesting. took a bit of time to get used to his super thick accent, but i enjoyed service a lot. the 4 levels of christian living in the marketplace, quite sad, i think i'm currently at the bottom rung of the 4 levels! got to break thru in this..

went for lunch w some SF guys at changi airport n then went for some dog show before going for asia conf prac at 4 pm. oh man, we played games n chatted n slacked before we could finally practice at 8 pm! we waited 4 hours just for a 15 min practice. i think mariah was so pissed off she left before we even went up to stage to practice. =p honestly, i felt it was quite a waste of time also, but the fellowshipping was great, so no complaints there. haha.

had dinner with joan at BK at city hall, where we talked about several issues.. i guess we're still quite different in the way we see things n we need to communicate more, rather than jumping to conclusions. but its good, at the end of the day, we were the loving couple again. haha! by the time i reach home n took a bath, it was almost midnight.. time really flies so fast on a weekend n drags so painfully slowly on weekdays, esp monday morning!

i want to take my leave n just chill out n relax for the asia conf weekend!! spend some quality time with Joan, catch up with non-church friends, etc. or just "nua" away, slack n watch tv n laze around at home, or chil out at some coffee place, sipping a drink n relaxing. the fast pace of life is really getting to me.. need to slow down. be still n know that He is God, no wonder even God has to command us to stop all the activities once in a while, be quiet n still, n know Him better.
