christmas and a resolution-less new year

christmas was great.. well, as usual, lotsa singing cos' of caroling n stuff.. but i love doin it..
anyways, christmas family nite was ok..thr were more people in the church last year.. and surprisingly, i still run all around the church for the items n i was the pianist..so yeah..
it finished earlier than i thought..haha so, after dat, we hung out for a while..
caroling was fun.. although abit shaky in the beginning.. hehe anyways, good job fernyi..
we've got about 20 houses to sing..(approximately) and 2 hotels..so its quite tiring.. and we started at 5pm n ended around 12 everyday for 3 days straight.. we went 2 meiyi's house on chrstmas eve after caroling.. for the countdown.. so before dat.. we occupy ourselves with black jack and 'mah-jong'...HAHAHAHA
we're not playng wit cash of course..its just for fun.. =) *i seriously need to learn how 2 play 'mah jong' *
Went for morning service the next day in church..with dark circles around my eyes, as usual..
the service was ok..although i tot it should be more lively.. *apparently nobody was playin the drums* =.=
anyway, the choir was great n the after-service-brunch was great too.. haha
i tot i could relax a little cos its christmas day..but not yet.
i still have musician practice after brunch n my frens r comin over to my place..at 3pm
i finished prac at 2pm, rushed to tesco 2 buy stuff and started cooking at 2.35pm.. i was rushing like mad.. it was a great gathering anyway.. thanx for comin' guys!

after they left at about 6pm.. i was so freakin tired, i fell asleep online-ing until about 9+, almost 10pm. it doesnt end here..
i woke up the next day having terrible sore throat.. n guess what? im goin karaoke wit vimal n keong then later at nite, BARBECUE in church.. im so dead..
but thank god it didnt got worse..im still having a mild sore throat btw..but at least a mild 1..haha

anyway, its hard to blieve that we're saying goodbye to 2009 already.. it happend too fast..
thr r many things that i regret doin it and thr r things dat r worth remembering..
all my life, i only have 2 regrets dat trouble me the most.. i was such an idiot n still is..haha
*sigh* anyways, i still count my blessings n thank God everyday for them..
so, for 2010 i plan not to make any resolutions cos i will nvr fulfill it..so better not make any and feel disappointed when i cant fulfill it..haha just go with the flow.. =)

anyways, i wish u guys a blessed Christmas and a Blessed new year.

p/s: u may notice dat i spell christmas in full and not "xmas" cos its CHRISTmas.. we're celebrating the birth of jesus christ..of course i dun wanna represent God's name with an "X"

Christmas Part 1

well, Christmas family night was a blast!
i was involved in almost every programme in the list..
plus, i was one of the back up singers..
so after every song, i had to run front and back for the next item..
the first one was the BM presentation about the birth of Jesus Christ..
after dat, i had to rush back 2 the mic for more singing..then thr's this young adult presentation
by Linda, Ying Wen and Kim Heng and i was the pianist n Li Wern played the acoustic guitar and Ern wei played the Bass and Song Hui was hitting the drums..we sang the song "People Need The Lord" which is very meaningful and also evangelistic..
after dat thr's more singing n then thr's this presentation of a CG. They sung a chinese song..
and after dat, thr's this little girl who sings so sweetly n cute that my tears almost rolled down my cheeks..well, almost..
then the MYFers did a mime..it was great..and they of course did really well..
then we sang the song "Give Them All" by the young adults..
after dat was the peak of the nite..
which is the candlewalk..so i had to run all the way to the back after the singing..so 14 people came in with our candles n place it on the altar..
well, Raymond got the honour of bringing in the Christ candle..
we walked in with the song "Light of The World" n there were children dancing with ribbons...n they are so cute..haha
later, we lit the 'light' to all the congregation while 8 of us were dancing to a song called "Shadowfeet" by Brooke Fraser. i love the song..and also the dance..haha
later, pastor end the service with the benediction n prayer..
n of course we sang Feliz Navidad and We Wish you a Merry Christmas.
we took lots and lotsa pictures..so go 2 my facebook if u guys wanna c it..
anyway, after the nite was over, WE had to clean up everthing, vacuum the church's carpet..etc2.. of course the night did not end like dat...
we went for supper at the lake gardens..cos every1's starving..
went home around midnite n both my brothers are back for the holidays..
thank God they brought back Dunkin' Donuts..i missed those very2 much..Lol
