I cherish this time of the year the most. It's weird, I think it's a fact that Christmas is the happiest time of the year for most people. Generally, Christmas has evolved around time, from a time to remember the birth of Christ to a time of the year when shopping malls are filled with colourful decoration and shopping malls having great bargains throughout the month of December. Many people taken this opportunity to give their love ones the best gift, guys take this opportunity to give their admirer a gift without any awkwardness because it's Christmas! A time of giving, sharing and spending time with our love ones. Parents scouting around for gifts which were asked by their children's request, friends going out to buy gifts for another group of friends.
Well, but what happened to the true meaning of Christmas? Wasn't Christmas supposed to be a time when we remember the birth of Christ? Something with carries such significance forgotten but been made into a season which puts gifts and presents as a priority. Oh well, nothing wrong with all the hype about buying gifts but if the presents and gifts overshadows the meaning of Christmas, what's the point? Anyway on the other hand, I have quite a few dislikes about Christmas season
Here goes,
1) Money begins to drain
2) Shopping malls are packed
3) Scouting for gifts are stressful
4) Wrapping gifts
5) Food, which makes me grow horizontally
tee hee, anyway that's all for now, so much for the sake of blogging. haha.

Not exactly my day...isn't exactly not my day.
You know, looking at my blog, it makes me think through my life and wonder, is there anything in life so interesting to blog about? I had a few thing I wanted to blog but i just didn't really feel like logging into blogger to blog about it. Well, now I'm here and as you people know, I'm still a thoughtful person, I decided to blog because I know that some have been patiently waiting for a new post to be reveal. So yeah, the post is about my day today. Which as you see in the title, you should know that it hasn't been a very pleasing day to me, maybe pleasing is not the right word to use. You could say that my day was shitty.
Woke up in the morning, went to play futsal, didn't even score a goal.Okayla (Maybe this one no effect). Then went home, slept until 4.50 when I was supposed to be in church at 4.30 for practice. Got quite frustrated ler, as my back was giving me problems, and it still is. I feel like i'm having period, not that i know how period feels but I feel so moody about everything. When to church, cough cough cough non-stop, when to the toilet and vomited, a sign that i was not feeling well.
Later, had some logistics problem. That also got a bit of me lah, stupid jam in the LDP was frustrating as well. So never mind, logistics got sorted out, headed to CURVE, missed the parking entrance of cineleisure and found out that I had exams tomorrow when a friend sent me a text message, did a stupid U-turn for God knows why, end up needing to make a big turn. We, supposedly needing to be at Cineleisure at 6.30 was already quite late lor, almost 7. So going to Cineleisure through the back way, Kena accident man! honestly, that really destroyed my day. SIgh
But then again, looking at the bright side.
When i was having a bad cough and bad throat, God provided me with esther who supplied me with strepsils. Thanks Esther. When I was in a hurry to the curve, and got into the accident, I didn't really feel the effect of it until later, I was so focused on the caroling and I was really singing whole heartedly, Found out that I still need loads of experience to lead the choir, good exposure though. In conclusion, it's true that God won't allow something to harsh to happen to us, he will not let us go through something which we can't. In the end, I can say that God provides in ways which we don't understand sometimes. I love you Lord. =)

Blessed
It's been exactly a week since i last blogged, indeed much has happen since then. I have been truly blessed by people around me. There was a time, when I thought that I was carrying a heavy burden. But as I look at the people around me, there are some which has a heavier load to carry and yet they persevere without a single sigh.
It's really an eye opener how some can step out of their comfort zone to do mighty things. The pass week has been the busiest week for me, with about 2 hours of sleep in over 40 hours, and i still had the strength to carry on, i think it was his strength that kept me going.
Anyway, camp is in a matter of hours, and it's currently 3.20 a.m. in the morning. I'm sure you'll be thinking who in the right mind would still be up at this time when i should be getting my rest. Well, the truth is, I just finished packing my stuff for camp. My body is aching, but I can feel his presence with me.
Well, I am really excited for camp, with so much effort put into the camp, I hope all our works won't be in vain. This year, my spiritual walk has been on a roller coaster currently being at a low level, because I feel drained.
What I would like to achieve from camp:
1) I want to be refreshed spiritually
2) Get to know the younger youths better
3) A start to a new commitment.
Till then..see you in a few days!
