Christmas Idol

On Christmas Eve, i helped the church to host a event. Zero rehearsals cos of work commitments, last min preparation, i managed to pull it off.... I tink. The audience was quite spontaneous and i tink it was quite a success, well except for a few boos boos. I forgot to intro the judges, forgot to announce some stuff hai~~~. We had a great time, and great food too. Rhoda, Peiting and Joanna looked stunning in their dresses. Not to forget me oso....haha

On the Christmas Day itself, i went to the poolside dinner with the adults. It had a nice ambience and was kinda different from other youth dinners. It was at a club and the six youths including me brought the house down. It was fun and a gastronomical pleasure. Qingying won a bag n a dvd player. So good~~~~

Ahha~~ i almost forgot, b4 christmas eve which is on the 23rd, my colleagues pulled me into Double O, which is a club at Muhamed Sultan. My goodness, we drank and danced until we could not walk properly hahahaha. The music there was Wow!! Man!! Got USHER, eminem and Alicia Keys. i danced and danced until the club closed at 3.haha

Apart from the 23rd, the 24 and the 25th was a nice refreshing change from my other Christmases. In the past, 24th was be the perfect time to drink and go hustle with the crowd for the countdown, after the countdown I would drink myself silly with my friends. This Christmas is the one tat is truly memorable. I did something which i never imagined and saw myself doing which is stand in front of 40 odd people and make merry with them. Christmas is not only the day that we make merry and party and also remember that it is the birth of Christ and the new era of salvation.

Well after 3 days of partying and merrying, i came down wif flu the nxt day and did not make it to the Sunday cum Christmas service :P. Well Cya guys and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Working Life

Recently i started on a part time job, its at Ang Mo kio and i work for motorola. I work in the shipping department and i work 12 hrs a day. Because of the long hours i dun haf time to blog much, i just reach home and sleep, and wake up go work. Luckily its just temporary, or else i die of exhaustion.

In my workplace, there are a lot of Ah Bengs with tattoos and stuff like that, but they are actually nice people when u get to know them. I like the "talk cock" sessions with them. I remember 1 of the sessions we touched on studying and the future, suddenly their faces turned serious. I asked one of them whether he want to go study again because he was locked up b4 he could finish his studies. He said he was afraid of studying again because he is scared of failure. For him, it have been 4 years since he touched a book. I asked him that is he going to remain like that forever, do odd jobs all his life and he said no. But then he said he will see how the future goes lor.

Like anyone else, i want to succeed in life, of cos i am not saying that if u study well u will confirm do well in life. I dun believe in that kind of crap. In work, u will have to handle things that will be never taught in school. U will have to face that stupid boss who is looking for creative ways to complain about you. I believe if u strive to do your bery best in your phases in life, u will succeed. Studying is a phase, working is a phase and even national service is a phase. I admit lar i do eat "snake" , but i am human after all. Even robots can break down during long hours of work. I always believe that in life there is no guarantees. Life is too short to be depressed and feel down all the time. I dun want my "final chapter" in my life to be a sad ending, i want it to be a very happy one, leaving behind precious and happy memories to people around me. How i die is not important, its how i live my life that is bestowed upon me is the most important thing.
