candy mix entry

because there's a lot of tiny bo-liao things to blog about

about sunday's service
- i was a lil peeved with the ppl sitting behind me who were making comments about the songs being slow (incl the choir song)...comments as valid as it is...i guess i was irritated because they continued to talk once the sermon started. so the mumbling didn't really stop..you know not just chat chat a bit...but on and on and on and on. gosh i wonder why they come at all...to fulfill a duty? God doesn't need us to fulfill duties. i wonder how many frogs will there be if God zapped every person into frogs, those who didn't come to service with the right motivations (me included). so we come to sunday service to worship God, to listen to His Word in reverence (even if it's super boring...that's worship as well on our part)...to show reverence and adoration to our God who loves us, as a community. hmm....

about missing friend
- the missing friend issue...is getting complicated. i knowing stuff frm her husband...but i still can't find her. not by email, not by hp. honestly..things are starting to unravel..and i'm wondering if it'll help me understand why my missing friend would want a divorce...and whether it's really valid or out of sheer anger. anyway...i'm still keeping this in prayer...God knows what will happen.

about June holidays
- june isn't any different for me...i'm still working..but there's YZ camp at Tioman (so gotta take 3 day leave...i don't have a fixed amount of leave la..but it really depends on my work..coz i can't easily transfer work to other ppl). and Ww & I are planning a short getaway somewhere for a lil holiday. we're still missing our melbourne honeymoon days and wish we can getaway to europe soon for our 2nd honeymoon...wish.

about the SG culture
- study, work, marry + buy flat, have kids, kid grow up, retire. that's quite a formula eh? ok...if you don't get married you skip the steps 3, 4, 5. i've heard of ppl who ROM to get their flats...and end up not being together and have to file for divorce. how weird. but oh whell...we get locked up in a cycle of debts...or spending money. i really understand how difficult it is for newly wed or going to wed couples who have to buy a new flat, do up at 30k reno, plan for a wedding all at the same time. gosh...that's spending +-400k within a year. and after being happily married you gotta service that 400k debt you've spent. phews. xiong. of cos there're cheaper ways to get married, cheaper ways to buy a flat & smart ways to do yr reno that's not over what you can afford. still...seems like it's the only way? and no matter what, you still gotta spend the money. whell...God provides in His time..and with the wisdom He gives us to make a smart decision regarding all these things..so i guess there's still hope. :)

about defending
- some things speak for themselves. so no need to defend oneself. so the more defending done, sometimes it reflects more things to cover up or maybe fear or maybe pride. i wonder why does one need to say so much to defend oneself? if lotsa ppl have been talking about something, then doesn't it hint about something? sometimes less is more. or it's more sense.

about sleep
- it's always good!
