Sunday, January 31, 2010?
I really had a great time during the weekend. My buddy jio me to Butter Factory in fact this is my 2nd time going to club since 2007! I am a home person la seldom go such places LOL. But after that night perhaps I might go more often depend on my finances status haha.

I really like Butter factory because of the environment both indoor and outdoor. It is opposite the IR and SG Flyer. After clubbing can take a stroll down along the river towards the Esplanade. My friend say St James and Rebel are good too lol... overall really enjoy myself with my buddies. =)

We open 1 bottle of Chivas
This is a killer. My friend sabo me. He bought for me this drink that need to put flame on top of it. I don't how to drink causing the straw to burn with fire LOL. Eventually I finish everything. I tot nth happen to me but after 20mins or so... my head start spinning and this is how my evening got started!


Another incident sabo by my friend. He told this Taiwanese girl that I too shy to take picture with her. Haha.. then she came over and surround her hand in my waist. I have no choice but to put my hand over her shoulder...
She is an interesting person. My friend wanted to take a picture with her and dance with her. So we went to look for her again. But to our surprise, in front of us was JJ Lin talking to her. With JJ Lin was the son of Jacky Chan. OMG... we all stunned! Who exactly is this Taiwanese girl? My friend gave up le because how to fight with JJ Lin? Hhaa. Anyway JJ was quite short la.. I am taller then him!


It was a good night! Enjoy the dance with the girls and you know in clubbing what guy will do la. Haha I better don't mention anything in my blog. Enjoy the fellowship with my buddy. Because almost all of them are either drunk or tired, they are all not fit to drive. I drink too but amount all I am the most alert. I am so afraid there will be road block. But eventually, I drove all of them back home safely! Thank God for that. But I will not try that again because it is really very dangerous.
I reach home around 5am. I bearly have 3hrs of sleep. Morning I woke up for Church service. I am so excited because Dr Niko is preaching. The last time I hear him preach was last year during leaders meeting when i was a SOT student. Their praise and worship, Indonesian style was so cool. The worship song immediately pull down the presence of God. I was pump up by the singing and the praying. After service, I went to the children church. As usual I went to look for Ethan and his 2 lovely sisters. I was asking Ethan about his trip to Honduras. He was telling me his experience in taking the plane over and what he did over there... haha. Then have some random chat with him. I am amazed he has grown up so fast over the years. I know Ethan for about 5 years already!!!
I was telling Erika the day I knew Ethan I don't know where are you. Haha because Erika ask Ethan to kick me so I say Ethan ur kor kor will not kick me because I know him way before you was around. Erika stare at me with a blank look wahaha. 1 thing that melt my heart is Erin attitude towards me. For a long period of time, Erin seldom talk to me. She will ask me to go away from her or don't talk to me at all. But recently she begin to be more open towards me. She starts to ask me some question and play with me. I really thank God for that. Every Sunday morning beside going for service, fellowship with the kids really make my day and prepare me for the week ahead. I enjoy a lot. =)
2 handsome young man. -)
I went for my friend wedding after service. I know Hakim for many years already. When I am Primary 5 after I move to woodlands I knew him through playing of basketball. And now he is married to a lovely lady. I wonder when is my turn? =(
I am so sleepy and tired now. Watching Australia Open final now between Roger Federer and Andy Murray. At night 12am still got Man Utd vs Arsenal.

THE IMAGES OF MOTHER

At 4 years old we say: "My Mummy can do anything!"
At 8 years old: "My Mum knows a lot! A whole lot!"
At 12 years old: "My Mother doesn't really know quite everything."
At 14 years old: "Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either."
At 16 years old: "Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned."
At 18 years old: "That old woman? She's way out of date!"
At 25 years old: "Well, she might know a little bit about it."
At 35 years old: "Before we decide, let's get Mum's opinion."
At 45 years old: "Wonder what Mum would have thought about it?"
At 65 years old: "I wish I could talk it over with Mum."

I am so tired. Thx God today came home early from camp. I am so busy with my room. The paint is up which is Grey in colour. 1 of my small little decor is up too. No picture to show you guys because it is not totally done. Still here and there. Hopefully everything can be ready for CNY.

This 2 weeks will be a tough week for me. I will have 2 guard duties to do and Exercise to support. After all this, it will be CNY. So praying for strength and God's grace.

Hehe looking forward to 6 Feb because something is coming! =)

This is my 1st blog post in 2010. Haha.

I was on my way back from Sunday Expo service and inside the train I saw 3 tourist from Taiwan (Based on their ascent). They were with maps in their hand discussing where to alight and how to travel to the place they want. They seem having difficulties pronouncing 'Tanah Merah' I was reminded what I had gone through when I travel to London alone from Paris. Map was my best friend and with my broken English I manage to communicate with the British people.

I was looking at various direction and I took the opposite direction from my hotel. My Crumpler bag and my luggage were killing me. I tried to reach the hotel fast and then rush down for service at Hillsong London. Initially was planning to go Emirate Stadium that evening hopping to have the chance to buy 'Arsenal vs Liverpool' match ticket from the black market haha. But sadly my plane from Paris was delay for 1 hr because of ice frozen in the wing of the plane. It was winter at that time and the weather was very bad. But not as bad as the current winter condition across Europe.

Travelling without any tour guide is a very good experience to explore around a new places that you never been before. Just like those Taiwanese guys I saw.



Inside their (MRT)

'Fine' board is everywhere in the train. Just like SG


Their MRT station is call Underground. London Underground system is undergo a major revamp. Thus not all station is operating everyday. It is to improve the train system in time for 2012 London Olympic games.

I had the luxury to take this express train from London Heathrow airport to City instead of taking the longer route via the normal train service which will take 1hr. The express train that I took was fast and took me 2omins only! What a big different. Of course the cost is different too!


Thumb up for British Airway!
Pastor always said that how you end 2009 is how you enter 2010. I ended 2009 with 2 voucher from a brother. I enter 2010 with another 2 voucher from my Dad. Haha now I have 4 different kinds of voucher. Haven use any yet. Especially the SG Flyer tixs, was initially planning to go on Christmas day but I have no date!
Mcdonalds ($12)

Sakura ($30)

Swensens

The best of all! A pair of SG Flyer tix!
Lets hope this year will be a better year!
