ive learnt...that however quiet this christmas seems to be,
with super little of all those sweet caroling,
with only a tweeny no. of christmas gifts
with the missing appearances of the christmas trees
without the whole atmosphere of jolly fellowship and goodness...
Christmas is in my heart when i remember the true meaning of it.
for ive learnt...
that christmas is more than all those superficial festive fun,
not about santa and reindeers,
not about christmas parties,
not about christmas decorations and presents,
not about wishes coming true...
it is just about the birth of my glorious king, who came in a super humble manner, to seek and save the lost.
it is just about this, all about this and nothing more...
MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!
may Christmas not only just be fun and laughter, but kept in your heart with internal joy from the Lord:)

ive just came back from my 8 days trip to yunnan, china. was quite a good trip of relaxing and enjoying God's marvelous creation of mountains, gorges, waterfalls, caves to the people n just the place. nice experiencing winter, something which u don't get in singapore. tempt range was about 10 degees n below (maybe slightly above that, my rough estimation) and sometimes even minus. first time talking with mist coming out of my mouth! i had church camp before that, was quite good too, pretty fun:) im super lazy in giving a whole account, what more doing my school homework which i haven even started. i went to east coast yesterday, n did abit of skating. first time really learning n skating, hees! was the last training of the year. n i almost forgot about twilight when i was in china, until i was on the plane back. i wanna watch, counting that i din finish the book. so i wanna know wats it about, counting that most people, not everybody i know, likes it. ive got my stuff from diva already (especially my smiley necklace which will make me smile) n TO TANYA, youve got to get from me your christmas present! im chatting with abigail now...ahs, all the stuff are leaking out!

imaginations, wishes, dreams, thoughts, feelings.
its a part of me and im sure for many of you too.
all these are closely related, closely knitted together,
forming the personal, inner being of me.
it brings about my 'fantasy' world,
what i wish would happen, how i dream things could come by.
sometimes i believe in it too much,
i trust in it too deeply.
i could just stare into the world and be deep in thought,
you may think im stone-ing, but honestly im not.
i will think about my dreams and then fall to bed,
for its all this beauty i hold on, to bring about my joy, happiness.
but when im back to reality, sometimes it really is painful.
i get paranoid and sometimes i feel on my own (besides for God, i'll always rmb).
cause thats my life,
my wishes have yet to come true.
however, sometimes the reality's good, yupps its good,
and i'll always remind myself to stay that way and be positive.
for then life will be perfect,
and everyone will be merry.
but whatever it is,
i'll still go back to my
imaginations, wishes, dreams, thoughts, feelings.

hellos! ahs, i finally went out with abigail after so many weeks of 'procrastination'. hahas! we actually decided on bugis but we ended up with orchard today. it was a great time.
First, as always, it starts of with wisma. hahas, ohs this the super funny part! on our way there, there were this group of somewhat-thoses-working-people-who goes-round-asking-people-to do surveys/maybe-promote-their-product. yas, so one approached abigail at first n she was a little lost at wat to do. so i help her say 'no thanks' quite a few times to the person n we got off safely. then slightly further down, we met another guy who was supposely doing the same thing. we said another 'no thanks' n we got off! so yups we went to wisma n saw hula n co, forever 21. we were stuck at cotton on cause there was a bag n shorts we both like. but we decided to come back later if we really wanted. i just realised something, abi is like me, she gets really happy when she sees or thinks about something shes like. n then she starts smiling to herself or making 'noices', hahas, super funny!
then we headed off to far east cause i wanted to get some accessories. so we walked out wisma n 2 things happened. firstly, OMG! the second salesman guy was there again. n he ask us again, we declined again, n abi said when we left he said he would 'see us again later'. i was think in your dreams! ahs n secondly, we went the wrong direction! my second time! i'll rmb its turn left next time. so we walked super long again to get back to far east.
we got a few stuff there together and when we got out, it started to pour heavily! so, second time, we went the wrong direction again, as we wanted to head to taka for lunch. this time it was even worse, we got wet in the rain while walking, up and down, crossing there, crossing back...but finally we were back at orchard mrt!(super tired). we realised we made a whole big round! n guess wat, we met the saleman again! OMG! i was laughing away/ walking away! n abi said tat he said ''you know tat 2 girls. i saw them 3 times in a role''. hahas! so qiao!
so finally we stopped at taka n had jap noodles n prawn/ham n cheese balls. but we threw away 2 balls cause we were super full! we wanted to take neoprints at first but we were wet n tired after walking in the rain, so we din.
but we went back to cotton on to get the stuff we wanted:) abi bought boxers instead n i got my stuff too:)
the end. pretty cool day! walking here to there, there to here!
n tanyas back!:) welcome home girl, u love singapore!

one day i would travel round the world,
from paris to spain.
one day i would go to new york,
and shop till i go insane.
one day i would become a fashion designer,
and ill present my collections in fashion weeks.
one day i would be a top runner,
running at incredible speeds.
one day i would stand on a cliff,
and face the vast oceans.
one day i would watch the sun,
setting on the beautiful horizon.
one day i would meet curtis,
and i'll get him to cook for me.
one day i would get married,
and live very happily.
one day i would return to Philippines,
to meet the children once more.
one day i would go to africa,
to help the hungry, thirsty and sore.
but what if one day...
i was walking...
and a car came and banged me down.
in the next split seconds...
all these 'one-day-i-would'' would just
fade away,
disappear,
become unimportant.
it would not be 'one-day-i-would',
but 'what-about-now'.
and then it ends here, its over.
thats how fragile life is.
