I'm going to be a Godmother again!

Got a call from Shu Yuh this morning telling me that her baby is going to be a boy! Woohoo that means I'm going to be a Godmother again! hehe I was telling her that if it's a girl then Olivia can be the godmother since I've oledi got a goddaughter. I'm pretty excited now. Can't wait for my godson to be born!

My Christmas Blog

Christmas day has come and gone. Usually during christmas time I would be in a really joyous mood and probably be like a jumping bean, jumping here & there, setting up christmas tree...decorating my house or my room...buying presents...organising christmas dinner...going to Living Quarters and looking at thier christmas decorations wishing I have the money to buy all of it and going for christmas parties. Somehow this year it feels different. This year I didn't attend any christmas party. Didn't even decorate my room. Didn't put up any chrsitmas decorations. Didn't go to Living Quarters. Didn't even bother to go for christmas shopping. Ok...maybe I did make christmas dinner on christmas eve but it was a last minute decision and I only invited Yuen Theng & Raymond over for dinner with my family (I didn't cook much...only beef stew, baked pumpkin, seafood pasta and onion soup) I dunno. Maybe I'm getting old. Just dun feel like celebrating in a big way. Just wanted to spend some time alone at home...maybe with some frens or with my sister, Moh Cheng.

Strangely enuff.....the last christmas I ever felt the same way was a couple of years back when I was working in singapore. Same feeling, dun feel like celebrating in a big way. Then a couple of days later my sister called me up to tell me that my dad has suffered a heart attack and was hospitalise. When I mentioned to my sister about this, she laughed and said maybe I have 6th sense..... haha yeah right..then I' would be rich by now! haha... But seriously I just pray that it's nothing and anyway my dad is still ok now. Maybe I'm just feeling tired. Or maybe it's God 's way of telling me that Christmas is just really about the birth of Jesus. We dun need to conform to the commercialisation of christmas. We dun need christmas trees or nice decorations or presents to celebrate. We dun need to wear red, green or white. We dun need to eat turkey (it's an american thingy anyway) We dun need to sing Jingle Bells. What do we need? One word. JESUS

I'm back!

After weeks of not blogging I finally succumb to it and decided to start a new one. And also becoz Sivin was urging me to blog again so he could update the links on his blog. hehe....ok hmmm what should I write about? ok here goes

I think I'll officially declare this week as the "Last Minute" week! Why? Becoz we are rushing out BLC's newsletter "Mustard Seed" edition out by christmas. Becoz my LG have a christmas party today which was a last minute decision and I couldn't go as today is "Kor Tung" and I have to go home for dinner. Becoz Shereen called me this morning and ask me if I could go for an orphanage visitation this sunday so we could perform a puppet show for the kids which she assume that I knew about it all along becoz her LG have been talking about it (I have no clue what is going on). Becoz James called me yesterday and asked me if I could do a slide show presentation for christmas service this saturday which I told him I don't have the time to do it. There....I've presented my case for declaring this week a "LAST MINUTE" week.

Maybe I should start a last minute club but hey why do it now.... wait until the last minute lah... :)
