8:10 PM

I had such a happy day yesterday, that I'm positively beaming away at my laptop as I sit here typing. Even the momentary blues later in the night are outshined by my very productive day that I , like an excited 5 year old, am bursting full of news about it.
The Lord is back in my life, and I acknowledge his presence fully(:
I missed his calling for the cip trips almost thrice, first the India OCIP and then the Chiangrai, Cambodia and the recent jumbo trip that I missed, but there's no denying that I'm eagerly anticipating the Legion trip. I feel that God has personally used his mighty javelin and hurled this chance straight into my direction, and I must embrace it fully. Although I do feel quite guilty that Ma and Daddy aren't exactly the most affluent of parents, I am grateful for the fact that they are sponsoring me.
God has answered my prayers not just in this aspect of finding my purpose, but to live up to my confirmation name as well. And the more I think about it, the more I feel that I really enjoy bringing a smile to people's faces, by helping them in some way or another. Even in my misery, like a clown with a painted smile, I really find joy through service(:
Which is why I was so happy at yesterday's class CIP in the most ulu parts of Singapore's residency - Senja. Haha. We met at 9am (first T11-er there!) and I got free Milo from Sush's friend. Turnout from my class all girls (as you can see, the guys are super enthu) and we went to the blocks to collect newspaper, electronics, and old clothes. I think it's a Singaporean thing to be a. watching Kids Central or b. sleeping in on Saturday mornings. But the residents were really friendly ( we actually got onde onde from this Malay goreng pisang seller for free) and the children were really cute. And we saw a snow dog!(Siberian husky)
After lunch at KFC with Kathy HW and Seren, I left for tuition with Thrish on the MRT. We slept all the way. I actually covered quite a few chapters of GE on my ride, but I still don't get the part about the Pockets. The language is too cheem for my comprehension. I honestly have no idea why Pip would think in such complicated, witty and sarcastic ways as a child. Oh well.
And and I talked to Vidya last night(: Our online conversation lasted for 3 hours! Omg! Guess we had alot to update each other on. And I had a pleasant discovery last night too, because what I thought was a deadend was actually an invisible door with a neon pink doorknob.
I have learnt so much. In just a span of a week. Amenamen.
