25.01.2010, Monday

Taking a break from work to gym and run is very relaxing. After that, I went to bowl before heading home. Bowling was a little different because the lights were switched off by the national team training there. I had some difficulties adapting to the conditions, but it was definitely a good challenge.

I will be starting work in a new department tomorrow. I hope that the job will be interesting.

Expressway crossing, forest bashing, and long distance trekking was what Daryl and I did the whole morning. We walked a total distance of about 20km. Sounds crazy? Certainly not. At first, I was hesitant to go because it did not sound very safe and neither was it fun. Anyway, I have no regrets. Walking along the expressways with the cars zooming pass you at high speeds sounds dangerous, but the challenge and thrill was there. More to come next time.

I went home to pack my room before going to church for worship at night.

Church, church, church.

Shopping at Tampines in the afternoon followed by family dinner at my grandma’s house.

I knelt to pray but not for long,
For I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work,
For bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done,
My soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time,
To spread a word of cheer.
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They would laugh at me I would fear.
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry.
No time to give to souls in need,
At last came the time, the time to die.

I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood, with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book,
It was the book of life.
God looked into his book and said,
Your name I cannot find.
I was once going to write it down,
But never found the time.

Work, work, work.

For dinner, my family and I went to Crystal Jade at Holland Village. The traffic was congested and it was quite difficult to get a parking lot. After waiting for some time, we got one and hurried over to order our food. Sumptuous dinner.

After work, I went for dinner with my family to eat the famous prawn noodles at Serangoon. Great food, but the coffee shop was pretty dirty. Cake cutting at home to end off the day.

21.01.2010, Thursday

I took leave from work to gym and run with my friends at school. After that, I headed to East Coast to run with Daryl for the second time before having lunch. Afternoon till evening was spent in town walking around.

Work, work, work.

23.01.2010, Saturday

I filed my documents in the morning before going for lunch with my parents. We had traditional charcoal porridge and it was one of the best porridge I have ever eaten. After that, my mother brought me and my sister to shop at Suntec City. To my surprise, my mother bought me a lap top for my birthday present. I really appreciate it. We also went to buy some clothes before going home for dinner.

My sister and I went to meet up with our friends for supper. We managed to catch up with them and talked about a lot of stuff. I really miss the times we had together.

24.01.2010, Sunday

Church, church, church.

For lunch, I went to Grand Shanghai with my family. The food was very expensive and it was only average in taste for the price we paid. After that, I went to shop with my friends before going home.

Time flies. It feels like I have just celebrated my 21st birthday, and now, someone is celebrating his 22nd.

This year has been a really wonderful year for me. God has been good and gracious all the time. Now that I have graduated from polytechnic, I will be looking forward to National Service. One year and ten months it will be. Nevertheless, I believe that God will see me through all the difficulties that stand in my way.

The day would not be perfect without my family and friends. I just want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their birthday wishes, presents, and surprises. From the bottom of my heart, I really appreciate whatever you did, whether big or small.

I received more birthday wishes than I could ever imagine.

Surprise, surprise, surprise.

I took leave from work, but I will be working tomorrow.

I went to gym and run in the morning before heading home. In the evening, I went cable ski-ing with my friends. This is my first time doing it and I can say that it was a bad experience. Of the five times I tried, I fell into the water without even really getting started. Maybe I should it try again next time.

Dinner was great. I had barbequed food at the 360 restaurant. I spent the whole night talking to my friends and catching up with them.

16.01.2010, Saturday

NTU Parent’s Day event in the morning. After that, I headed to IMM to walk around with my father and sister before being dropped off at Republic of Singapore Yacht Club. I had to teach sailing there with my friend. We had students aged 7 and 8 and they were really cute.

Supper was all about fabulous food.

17.01.2010, Sunday

Church service was great.

In the afternoon, Chester and I watched Daybreakers before shopping for clothes. I had family dinner at my grandma’s house after that.

Do not promise when you are in joy.
Do not reply when you are sad.
Do not take decisions when you are angry.

Think twice. Act wise.

I worked for half a day. After that, I went to bowl, gym, and run. My bowling average improved but there is still room for improvement. In the evening, I drove to the chalet my parents booked for a barbeque dinner. I did not stay over but drove home instead

09.01.2010, Saturday

I spent the morning watching a movie before going for lunch with Daryl at Jalan Tua Kong. On the way home, I fetched my cousins to my house before going down to the chalet. The sea breeze was very refreshing when we arrived. We decided to take a walk along the beach and had a drink at the coffee shop nearby after that.

Buffet dinner for everyone in the evening. We ended off the night by drinking champagne as it was my grandparent’s 50th wedding anniversary.

10.01.2010, Sunday

Church, church, church.

In the evening, I had family dinner at Yan Palace Restaurant to celebrate my grandparent’s 50th wedding anniversary.

Worship puts God at the center of our vision. It is vitally important because it is only when God is at the center of our vision that we see things as they really are.

Work for half a day.

I went to church to have dinner with my friends and we had overnight prayer meeting till the wee hours of the morning. I got home around three plus and was really sleepy, but I only slept for four hours.

Happy New Year to everyone.

First day of the year and I already lack sleep. Nevertheless, I am still out of my bed early as usual. The whole morning was spent at the photo studio taking photos with my relatives. It was a long and tiring process because we were made to stand still for quite some time. At least the photo taking session ended off with a good lunch.

I went shopping with my sister in the evening at Marina Square. Sales are going on everywhere and everything seems so irresistible to buy. I ended up buying one shirt from Zara.

02.01.2010, Saturday

Started running again with Daryl in the morning. This is a good start for the year.

In the afternoon, I went to my cousin’s house warming session. We had Italian food and dim sum for lunch. The house was very nice and had a quiet atmosphere. After that, I followed my father to test drive the car that he might want to buy.

Dinner was the best part of the day. I met up with my cell group members and drove down to Seletar Airport for dinner. On the way there, I took a wrong turn and we got lost. Thank goodness we still managed to make our way there safely. The food there was good and we talked about a lot of stuff. It was a night full of enjoyment and laughter.
