New computer, got SF salary, KTV with SF and LAN with Bk n gang!

What a hectic weekend! Will just blog a summary of events since last Friday evening!

5 Dec - buying the new parts for the computer and installing them.. until almost 12 am in the morning!

6 Dec - pay day for Strike Force - $1750 in total, gave $100 to SF fund, spent $1600 for the 5 day cruise during CNY in Jan 2009, and kept a miserable $50 to myself. oh well, i guess i have really got to sacrifice n save up a bit more.. Joan got $1200 i think, which she is saving up for her studies for next year. Anyway after getting our pay n our presents (2 CDs, 1 DVD and 1 pair of sticks!) from Boon, Joan n i went to meet my parent n my aunt n cousin for lunch at chinatown area, after booking the 5 day cruise. Joan wasn't too sure about it, n honestly i'm not exactly keen on going to cruise doing CNY n spending so much money on it also, but my parents really want to spend time with me, so i felt as their son i had to make an effort to spend time with them too. my mum was just complaining i have so many church activities n don't really spend time with the family anymore, so i guess i need to spend more time with them, while they're still fit n healthy.

Oh, Joan brought me to this cool shop at chinatown point, which sells all the dragon stuff n cosplay things. we'll prob have a few of those things on display in our house next time!

at night we went over to my cousin rebecca's 21st birthday at her house, n man it was so cramped with her friends n relatives, there was hardly place to stand n eat! the food was good, all home-cooked, but the cake was really horrible. looked nice, tasted yucky. i mean compared to Joan's birthday cake, i'm sorry to say the cream cake for rebecca's birthday tasted bad. hahaha.. but anyway we didn't have much to do there except watch AVP, n then went home to catch Thank You For Smoking, a really good movie.

I really appreciate Joan for spending so much time with me this weekend, despite the fact that her exam is today and she has 3 exam papers.. thinking back, perhaps i should have let her go home to study on saturday night, or on sunday night after MTT.. sigh, but whats done is done, n she says she has confidence for the exams, so i believe her. i just hope to God that she's really done her studying n is really ready for the exams, which begins in exactly 1 hours from the time i'm typing this..

7 Dec - Svc w dr john avazini, MTT and KTV at chinatown kbox until 4 am on monday morning! pics will be up on facebook soon! adventures of SF at the supermarket! the screaming singers of SF, annoyed with the $35 bill! hahaha.. we had a lot of fun, but we were really exhuasted after singing until about 3.30 am, and had to take cab home in the rain.

8 Dec - woke up at about 12.30 pm, so basically about half the day was gone. spent the afternoon fixing up the com n installing programs with daryl n my brother's help, then had to WALK down 13 storeys because the lift was under maintenance! i was really annoyed, n the stairs were quite dark too. eventually met up with bowen n BK for lan at park lane, played a bit of BF2 and Left 4 Dead until 11.30 pm, n went for supper at the tau hway stall. Thanks to BK for sending all of us home, although he was really very tired as well! he's going into NS on friday, really hope the experience will make him a better man in Christ!

actually wanted to go visit Joan n surprise her with something, but i guess i'll save the money for her Christmas present, anyway its just mock exams n nothing major, so i guess its not really very important.. although honestly i feel bad for not visiting her, when she always visits me before my exam starts, no matter how late or how tired she is.. i still remember she came to encourage me with a balloon in 2007, when i was taking my final law exams in NUS, cos i was really very stressed n worried about my studies. i was so touched, i think i cried whenever i saw the balloon, n felt so blessed n loved by this wonderful girlfriend.

Don't worry Joan, i will definitely visit you more when u're nearing your actual exams, i will constantly encourage u, n will try not to say anything discouraging or negative. I know u read my blog almost everyday, in fact, i keep this blog only for God and you, a very few friends whom i trust n thats it.

Last thing i did last night n first thing i did this morning was to pray for your exams, n that you will do well, n be calm n confident, n you'll be able to glorify God in your studies. I love you so much, I really do. =)
