Hope EVRYONE had a blast!
I know I did!
Christmas Eve
Started off the morning with service with Shin, and then a mad rush after that. Lunched at BK, spent a ridiculous $130 (!!) on Christmas cards! Then frantically trying to finish writing the cards at Food Junction, which we didn't of course, before we rushed off to church to learn the sign language for the Covenant Service.
Mad rush after that to Shin's hostel to continue writing the cards. Caught a cab at 6.30pm (I know I was suppose to be at the dance room by then!), to prep for the Chirstmas Eve Watch-night service.
Service was great! The drama, Love Unreservedly, was used really well by God to minister to poeple! I had watched it for all 3 services, and I was still reminded of how God loved each once of us, even though we're sinners and so unworthy of His love, that He gave us His Son Jesus to take on all our sins on the cross! Even though He hated sin, He loved us, His people, enough to adopt us as His children!
We didn't trip on our skirts as we do our possesionals and recessionals! =) That was a good thing! We remembered our steps, and really managed to worship and praise our Lord Jesus on His birthday!
Was glad to see Jud in her beautiful sari and Xavier in that sharp blue-striped shirt!
Photo-taking after that with everyone else! =) People! If you're reading this, please do the following. I don't know whose cameras were used ah, but if you have my face in your camera, please email the photos to me okie? =) Thanks thanks!
Supper with Boon, Abi-boy, Joycee (see? I mentioned you in my blog ok? =P Love your green 50s dress!), Sue, Khen Wai, Michele, and a lot lot of church people at the other tables at the coffeeshop at Holland V till about 3.30 in the morning. I was suppose to be in church by 7.30am on Christmas Day!!
Christmas Day
Slept at 4.40am, after removing make-up, washing out the hair-spray and glitter in my hair, writing really last minute Christmas cards (most of which are still in my bag, because I didn't have time to give them out! Haha!). Woke up at 6 to give morning calls to Christabelle and Pearlyn.
Showered again, pulled on the leotard and tights, applied foundation, and off to church at 7am.
Usual make-up, helping the lil Sec 1 gals to get ready, costumes, ribbons, hair (think we all inhaled enough hair-spray to last us till next Christmas! =P), props, pray and we're on!
Pastor Joe, Li Huan and Siew Peng set up a Christmas lunch to thank those involved - the choir, ensemble, drama peeps, band and dancers. We had pizza from Santino, ham, durian log cake (YUMMY!!!), carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and mango mousse cake!
After that sinful lunch, which is SO not part of a dancers' diet (*wink*), coupled with the lack of sleep from the last night, I went home to concuss, not literally, I really meant sleep, till this morning!

Boxing Day
Woke up at 6am to go with Moo to send his mum and sis off. They're going to KL for his grand-dad's death anniversary.
Got a message this afternoon that yet another person has been called back home to the Lord last night.
We celebrated many unions this year... and also mourned for the loss of many loved ones as well.......
Like Boon said, life is unpredictable. That is why we should live each day of our lives as if it's our last..........
Daddy scooped a pregnant fish from our fish tank and attempted to be a fish gyne. He pried opened the fish's mouth and relased the baby fishes!
