Today has been supremely good day. It was a good time of recharging during our last cg of the semester, a good time of worshipping led by Nicole and me, followed by a treat by our fantastic CGL again in Nicole at Munchie Monkeys which sells delicious vanilla ice-cream and hot chocolate fudge cakes and chicken primevera spaghetti. Dawn, Lai Peng, Joy Clement and I were around. Nearly full attendance minus Michelle only. : ) Had a good time of sharings and writing blessings for each other. I feel absolutely loved, and I think they feel that too. My evil twin Joy revealed that when she first saw me, she was wondering who is this noisy guy and she thought she don’t want to be friends with me; but now she thanks God everytime for me. : ) Glad that among my heavy suaning, I must be doing something right during those times when I’m supposed to be serious at least. : )

Got something from GK too! It was this tagboard type of thing that was very sweetly done. My cg people were so curious about it! They thought it was from a “special one”. But I have to admit GK has been a blessing in many ways this year, and I’m really blessed to have seen more than others and be encouraged by the few people I really considered to be nearly there already, or at least on the right path – true women and men of God. So thanks GK for your friendship. : )

I saw Weiting today too. She finally passed me a card that she wrote for me the week before, which I didn’t get it because I wasn’t punctual enough. It was one of the most articulate, genuine and moving letters that I’ve received in my life. It has been long since somebody tells me I’ve been his or her answered prayer for a friend. And if you want me, of course I want you la! Lol! Jokes aside, I’m glad that the ways I’ve treated friendships have brought glory to the Lord, and I hope that I can continue to learn and grow with the friends, new and old around me.

Ended the day with a long talk with Yiwen in Becky’s room after CG. Saw my Totoro Card hanging above her desk! *grin. Was doing my tutorial as I waited for Yiwen, Sarah and Becky (who is the epitome of coolness with her guitar skills: potential suitors can either go brush up their guitar skills or demonstrate other talents. Becky is a smart girl too! So beware!) practicing for the worship session for Fellowship Teachings (FTs) tomorrow at Science. Becky went off to meet her friends at supersnacks while Sarah went back to her room with Becks. Had a long sharing with Yiwen about some issues that are close to my heart and hear her back in return. We talked for so long that Becky had enough time to come back and joined us for the latter part of our conversation. The 3 of us ended the conversations by quieting our hearts and prayed while I was touched to close for us. I got to learn again on a higher level what does it mean to share in weal and woe with my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.

I shall end with this verse that Joy wrote in my blessing card: “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.”Isaiah 54:2.
