M is the word...

Everyone is preparing for the big M in school. Teachers who will be performing for M, are quite anxious to get on stage which they did last Saturday's rehearsal. It went well and P liked it. She suggested that I could pump up the tempo a little more to jive up the atmosphere. I just nodded in response, knowing that the teachers are quite comfortable with the current tempo.

I just came back from Ikea...they are now having their annual clearance sale. I came across two metal colored pails which I quickly fell in love with the sound.

I dropped by at Rochor Centre just to buy the masks for stomptroopers. However, the shop was closed for the day.

Today, three fellas from 1n1 were caught smoking in public. Again, parents were informed of their children's misadventure. Two of them will be sent for caning and smoking cessation.

Today i went to Rochor centre yet again ..and this time round, I managed to get 18 coloured masks and 3 white/plain full masks. Hopefully, the stomptroopers will like the masks.

The day awaits and everyone is busy with the preparation of the M...

Till then, I will be posting pics of M's concert here...so stay tuned.

One more thing, maria will be performing her solo on stage. (making her dream come to past before she leaves the school)...thoughtful of me right??

Popular Pork Knuckles
Nicole caught sleeping with her mouth wide opened
We celebrated Dad's birthday at Brotzeit - vivo city. It is a German restaurant/pub, nice hippy pub ambience full of executives chilling out with a mug of beer with their friends/colleagues. Their favourite and most popular dish is the pork knuckle...you would have to be there earlier if u wanna eat this because the pork knuckles are limited. Another recommended dish would be the brawurst - sausage platter. Dad, Dennis and I ordered their house beer too. We were there till 11pm and Nicole was so tired that she fell asleep in the car.








Mum's birthday was celebrated at Hog's Breath- Vivo city. Set lunches served at reasonable prices.

Last Friday's fellowship cg was fun. We played games, shared our testimonies, and had yummy food bought from Botak Jones and Don Pie. There wasn't any preaching of the Word but I still enjoyed every moment of it, cos it's been such a long time since I attended my own cg on Friday (I had to attend lessons on Friday evenings). I got tired of posting pics here so Click on this link for more pictures. http://chrissygirl.multiply.com/photos/album/51

A time to pamper myself...

Till date, I have been to pedicures, manicures, rebonded my hair and did a full body massage. Haha...what is next? shopping at GGS? watching another midnight movie at cineleisure - pirates of the carribean? The word SALE is just too tempting...I have bought too many things over the past one month. A black dress from topshop, two pairs of charles & keith heels (both $19 a pair), mango bag, a floral top from Zara, and black tights from Zara. Now, I don't know what is left for me to buy again...

Feeling awkward...

Just felt awkward for having to be in a ceremony...appreciated yet forgotten. Perhaps I wasn't supposed to be there....they weren't expecting me... For all I know, I won't want to turn up again if there is such an event. I ain't jealous but felt neglected all of a sudden. My hardwork, time and effort were in vain. Someone actually wrote in the card that she worked and saw more of her rather than me. Well, maybe I should have listened to B about not volunteering since I wasn't paid. I was not told to do so likewise. What did I get eventually? nothing...I asked God, why should I be bothered by matters like this...but after that, I laughed it off, because they are just mindless kids.

3 Cheers to Choir

It's almost a month since the last time I posted. There were simply too many things, too little time. School work (tons of students' compositions waiting for me to mark, SYF choir, exams round the corner...so I would be expecting another pile of compositions to mark), studies (My exam paper is on 18 May and I have two assignments due this week - Sadly, I am still reading! I realised I only get down to reading the text and resources when I have to do assignments. Sigh...If only, I'd have the time to read those texts) Family - I haven't been able to spend quality time with Nicole and Dearie because of my studies. Perhaps on Labour Day, I will plan for another trip to the zoo or Sentosa or somewhere else.

What greatly impacted me was Rev Benny Hinn's Special Weekend services...I was greatly moved and touched by the power of God. It was so awesome to fall under the power of God. I didn't managed to attend Friday's service as I have to attend Humanities lesson. I went for Saturday's service instead. As expected, upon arriving at the SIS, I saw long snake queues already forming outside the stadium. Irene, my Taiwanese friend of 7 years, nicole, dearie and I joined the q. Just then, dark clouds were already forming above the sky, droplets of rain came down and before we could do anything, what was a drizzle became a downpour. I was thinking in my heart, "God, are you testing us?" I saw people starting to leave because they did not bring their brolly along with them and most of them were soaking like new born chicks. :p I was determined and told Irene that we should just stay on in the q to get in. I also realised that I just wanted to attend this service so badly because two years ago, when Rev Benny Hinn came down, I was heavily pregnant with Nicole. ( my mother forbid me to travel)

Next, I wanna give 3 cheers to Choir. They have attained a silver award for this year's SYF central judging competition. I was calm before and after the results were announced. I guess being a musician myself, I have already expected it when I heard them present their rendition of the 3 songs on stage. It's a pity that their nervousness got the better of them. The adjudicators merely wanted the youths to enjoy themselves. I remembered the times when I was a piano accompanist for St. Marg's choir. (I was helping my friend Hoon - the conductor of st marg's choir then) Missed those times we had together though - the thrice weekly practices, the trips to NY Girls' high school (venue of SYF back then). Haha! I also missed the money I earned as an accompanist - real good money!~

I'll be back for more updates (hopefully after the exam) ghee...I am counting down the days I could breathe the air of freedom - HDB balloting results are out in May.
