had intended to post

Hello!

you may have noticed i finally removed the cowboy game. Wanted to just change the game, but couldn't find one that i liked....

Anyway, I thought a layout change would be nice. Next I'll work on my side panel.

But today, I felt to add some Christmas cheer to my blog...that's because this year for me, it doesn't feel like Christmas at all...or more like no festive or holiday mood...

Unfortunately, it can be easily attributed to my work, and also by the fact -- just got no mood to get into it lor.

You know me lah,...I'll pick the cute stuff ...this one of the Santa and reindeer is so cute! hahaha...

Hope it brings some Christmas cheer to your heart toos...=)

Can't yak long, eyes are closing..so have to postpone...*yawn*...thanks for reading my blog!

Do they know it's christmas time?

(Note to my sister when she reads this--> this should bring back memories! Hee!..u must turn on your computer speakers!)

I heard this when i was only 5 years old and loved the song since. I look forward to the radio playing it during the christmas period. Indeed even though the message is sad, this is one of the songs that has survived over two decades (it was recorded and released in 1984) and remains one of the most played songs during christmas, whether on MTV or radio.

Thanks to youtube, i can enjoy it again. =)

For most of my friends, i do not think you would recognise the singers, but they were the 'biggies' back in the 80's and they look so young here..haha..people like U2 (leas singer Bono) Sting, George Michael, Phil Collins, Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Boy George,...i know them all thanks to my sisters who grew up in that era...=)

They re-did it in 2004 (new bunch of singers..) but man..it was bad...the orignal brings the best out of it! =)

You can watch it here.... I picked this version as it carries the reminder of the hungry out there...=)

Looking back at my weeks...

Friday was a pretty cool day. i got to go to work in berms and i got to play go-kart for the first time in my life.

How come? because a meeting i had to attend requested us to dress super casually. So i did so lor....besides, it was a good thing, as i didn't know the go kart racing was free!

HAHA...i went a few rounds...everyone said i was pretty slow...but i tell u..it feels super fast in there...especially the turns...the centrifugal force was so strong, my arms and shoulder back was aching on Saturday! hahaha...=)

I couldn't take a photo..and the photographer i designated didn't know how to use my mobile phone after the first shot. =) it's ok...it was pretty fun...but i think i would fare better with a proper track...this one was just cones and they were spaced widely apart. so there was risk of going in the wrong direction with the wrong turn..so it's scary...

Anyway free lah..so no complaints!...hee...will definitely try it again!

Weekend before last (17 to 18 Nov), Pst Phil was in town. For those of you who do not know, he's from a church in Australia. He's one of my pastor's 'mentors' and he's super talented, in music and the arts. his specialty being oil paintings that sell in galleries! Cool huh?

So he was here to paint as he preached. first time he's doing it elsewhere other than his own church! He painted the Last Supper and the Cross on the Saturday and Sunday service respectively. The paintings would be auctioned and proceeds to go to our church building fund! =)

I actually managed to catch him doing the touch up of the last supper at the back of the expo hall...but those were quite blur and blocking the pic...so i didn't post them up.

Last i heard the cross went for SGD60K...I wonder what the final one was..i will go ask around. hee...

After service, because i drove that weekend, i decided to bring 'what was left' of my cellgroup to somewhere different for lunch. We went to East Coast Park and decided to try out the new korean restuarant above the Burger King, which i heard was pretty good. It was Emy's first time eating korean! haha...I thought the plates displayed were cute and Anna's and Emy's coloured t-shirts too!

I ordered Soba fish (see the plate in front of me?)...yummy...i like certain fish...this one is one of them as it's nice and crispy, with a burnt taste. =)...hahaha...that's anna having a serious moment reading her hp sms...HAHAHAHA.. =P

Candid shot!
