Well, I had my wisdom tooth taken out. (: I'm so proud of myself for being the queen of pain endurance (at least in my own eyes). Haha! Well honestly, I was trembling and whatnot as my dentist shared with me about the procedures and stuff. But he was really a great help man. I could tell that he was trying hard to distract me from my anxiety by chatting with my empty shell. Haha. Kidding. But one thing he said is very true. "The fear of the unknown..." (And my mind went off to somewhere else) I seriously called out for God in my mind man. Wanted to escape or change my mind last min. Oh well, it wasn't as scary as I thought. The drilling and stitching was quite fun in fact. I'm sorry for being sucha sadist. ):

When we feel stretched or like everything's just against us, perhaps it isn't just an endurance test. It's an indication for us to respond to God by simply giving it all to Him.

I was watching this show on how to deal w rebellious kids and gained a tip or two. Muahaha. After being at PRAISE, I really salute people working at student/child cares and all the noble mums! I have really learnt so much. And hopefully I will be toughened and not be so soft-hearted when it comes to disciplining the children. It's really a toughie and I take back my word that I'm ready for motherhood! Haha! But I gotta say the kids were quite well-behaved today. There's just this progress that I see, or imagined. Well, time will prove.

Just recalling what happened recently..

Xiaoxian's birthday! I've finally gotten a chance to celebrate with her. Just feels like I cldn't make it for the past few years. And it's been more than one year since I've seen her I think! I'm not exaggerating. It's so ouch. But I'm glad that she's doing fine. (: And we had much fun at pitstop cafe, one of those games cafe. And steamboat with the girls. Xx and I kept dropping our chopsticks somehow. Okay random fact. (:

Marcus' choir concert yesterday! It's so weird because I'm like going there to support my cell boy. First time for me. In the past it was to support Joyce's never-ending no of handbell and er-hu concerts. (: I think I went partly because it's cat high and that means the standard is still there. I tried closing my eyes and the sop boys still sounded like girls. No doubt, I had the same chills when I heard them few years ago in an exchange program. (:

Hello (: I had a pretty good week.

Some slow tv updates
Unplanned 'bonding' with family over A Moment of Truth. This tv show that asks really crazy questions. Like really 'ouch' questions. And they have several levels and a lie detector to pass the contestant. The contestants have to answer questions related to their family members; things which they would have never revealed. Oh man I won't want to earn that money. At the end I would probably end up with tons of money and a strained relationship.
Oh and I finally found out the name of the girl whose voice I was so mesmerised with during the American Idol Hollywood Week: Didi Benami. When she sang Terrified, my heart melted. It was so nice. Everyone should check it out.
And the cowboys were awesome at Amazing Race. Can't wake up in the morning so I watched the midnight episode. But it's so worth the wait. (:

Met up with Jas, Sam and Hz yesterday! Like finally. It's been so long and I really really enjoyed being with them. Like Samuel who is still as nonsensical as ever. These are friends whom I really can go crazy with. (: God has really blessed me with many great wonderful friends in my life. We went to the helix bridge which was really quite a sight. Im actually quite amazed by how little lights can actually make the place bright. (now that sounds interesting) And our hungry stomaches brought us to the flyer but there's like no food there. Popeyes 5.90 promotion really works. There was still a long queue at 9+pm. So we walked to Marina SQ for dinner but by that time shops were closing. Btw, hotpot culture sounds like a nice and affordable place to dine in. What a long day of walking. Conclusion? I've exercised. (:

Stacia's wedding was really nice! (: It's sucha joy to see people getting married. And I hope one day I'd understand how people can make a love commitment to "be faithful to each other till death do us part"? I think it's really lovely.
