Ladies and Gentlemen Night :D

Image
After the branded sale event , We then headed to Zanne's house to doll up for the event of the night " Ladies and Gentleman Night " Actually it was super jam because ( obviously ) we're stuck @ the Golden Triangle... so it's natural for us to worry that we might not make it to the event on time... Thank God my intuition was somewhat good that day...Just had this feeling to ask them to turn using a small road and VOILA !! we saved about 1 hour ( coz it's a short cut / back alley ) and we arrived @ Zanne's house..... still kinda late ( around 6pm...we need to be at church around 7pm to meet up with Wen Qi coz he knew the direction ) Somehow , midway , we decided that we're too late , so we'll use google maps instead... lols                                                        Claudia and Sin Ling in their outfit for the night :D ...

Of Wanting more and expectations...

Expectations are good....but sometimes...too much will leave you "paralyzed ".... * Paralyzed = mental stress / burden / negative anticipation... Last Sunday , I went to my ex-church...and the sermon from the guest speaker really hit me...like God's telling me something.. I've been living on people's expectations since young...erm that doesn't mean that my parents give me tons of stress in my studies...but other people like my relatives...expect more from the outside...especially my body weight ( like what i've said many times before... ) I'm the product of expectations...it resulted in several improvement yet "defects " in me...no doubt. In history , men never fails to stop climbing for success and wanting more and more ( e.g : getting a diploma -> degree -> masters -> pH.D ) But in Ecclesiates 1 : 1-11 somehow says that most of the things we chase in life is utterly meaningless... Everything Is Meaningless 1 The wor...

My Religious beliefs ( the " Challenge " post )

Christianity is my religion...But Christian doesn't just mean religion...It also means " A way of life " hence , Christianity have to be my way of life... Being a very logical person , Since young , I question alot out of curiosity and even asked my sunday school teacher " Where is God's home ( heaven lol ! ) " " is it above the clouds ? " " is it out of the world " and when I was 10 , I even asked my sunday school teacher " Before God , what is the colour that existed...if nothing is NOthing...then what is a nothing ? is it a white colour huge space ? but God haven't create any white space yet...so how does it exist ? " I still question a lot till before I went for my water baptism....On the first day of class , I actually knew many things that I don't know...and it kinda leaves me doubting my faith and belief in general... Later , after much research and explanation from friend , I managed to get my beliefs righ...
Thank God that in my disturbed and worried mind , i'm slowly finding peace =) All glory and honour to him =)

Easter day 2009 was seriously a blast @ CCC !! We had worship practice and Me , Jess and Cass's baptism =D Started our day worshiping GOD @ Youth Hall !! We got hyper that day !! Matthew asked everyone to dance and etc.....xD Well...I kinda danced a little xD During CG lesson , one think that strikes me the most is about how we are gonna say / react / answer when people asked us what is Christianity We gave various answers that day : GOD is my friend . GOD is my saviour , GOD is my redeemer , GOD is my answer , etc...... Then , Beatrice said....GOD is love =D ( the best answer that is ) then she used me as an example...and it became Chermaine is love ...lol everyone laughed @ that remark.... honestly , i was kinda stunned xD Later , we were seperated into groups of 4.... every group is given a task which is to translate what you understand by each verses given.......and construct a sentence there xD Actually , we kinda found the answer ourselves in the end xD ...
