My 9th June

Went shopping with P and C today at Marina Square to get cgl's birthday present.
Already did a short round of shopping yesterday but wasn't successful.

This time we went a few shops and finally went to City Chain. We saw this Nautica watch and 2 other possible Seiko watch. Then C saw another watch from CYMA. It looks great! But the price was too much over our budget. So the sales lady asked us if we want her to help see got other similar watches. So she helped us to find. Then found this Seiko one. It was light, unlike the others we saw. It was titanium material. The watch face was also made of sapphire (is this the word?) so that the watch surface would not be scratched. So in the end, we bought that cos it was a good choice near to our budget! :) Yeah, mission completed.

Went to Killiney Cafe to have ice jelly and french toast with maple syrup. :)

Went to get cake and card before travelling down to expo.

The walk to hall 1 was long long...!

Pastor shared about true rich Christians.
I want to be rich and have influence.
I want to build homes for children and be their blessings.

Recently I thought of the voluntary charity work I did last time.
Went to some homes to visit.
Went to paint some home or clean some home.
These things somehow made me happy though tiring...
I remember tht was a home where the kids pinched us... :P

I need to start doing more of these things. Think of other people more than myself.
Bring a smile to their faces, which in turn brings back a smile to myself.

I realised that I have lost my smile again. I feel tht it is so hard for me to smile. That was a period that I got back my smile, but I feel that it is gone all over again.

At cg, J shared that Happiness is a choice.
I need to choose to smile, I want to be happy.
The problem is how much do I want it!?!

We celebrate cgl's birthday after service. We wanted to sing loud loud for him, but he kept asking us to lower our volume. Haha! This was one of the occasion that we only listen to our cgl partially. Cos we sang softer but it was not very soft too. :P

I must say that I am very blessed by his ministry. He really have a big heart for us. Just this week, he took cg 4 times!!! 2 cg meetings as usual and 2 makeup cg sessions. He gave his time to us. :) J, thank you for sowing into our lives and believing in us!

After that I walked and talked to a SOT student in my cg. Oh yes, I am very happy to hear that they wanted to share in our cgl's present. They are all here on scholarship and do not have a lot of money, but they want to be a blessing. It really touches my heart. I want to bless them, but I do not know which is the best way I can touch their heart. Let me not just think good thoughts, but let me do something for me. Show me.

I took a cab from Bedok to Woodlands. $19.50. So expensive man!!!
I went there for a colleague's wedding. She was in the same dept as me for a few months, then she went to another dept. She looked really pretty. The void deck was nicely decorated too. Congratulations to Sha and Haleem! :)

Left with another J, H and K. The mushrooms girls. Haha!
Shared cab with them to The Cathay cos one of them was going there to watch movie with bf. I went with the other 2 gals to Macs at Plaza Sg. Ate the Seaweed shaker fries with tea, and chit chat a little. Then took mrt home.

H is going to leave the company. 28th is her last day, while she will clear 4 days of leave before that. I think I will miss her. She is passionate about what she does. She is good at her design, website skills, javascript. She has good thought processes. It is such a pity that we are losing this talent. It is actually quite sad to think about it. But as usual, I have to be happy for her as she has found a job with better remuneration and prospects.

I wonder if we are just colleagues or more than colleagues. Hope it is more than colleagues, and there are some friendship element in this relationship. :)

Focus on the good things in life.
