Yay! just shared gospel to my friend MEE LENG.
My secondary and ITE Classmate.
I'm surprised when she asked me " what does a christian do when ur family is a Buddhism?"
Starting i thought oh maybe helping the cousin to ask since she has a close cousin.
Becoz two of my christian friends wanted to share gospel with her 2 years ago.
But her heart seems harden.
Now mee leng has open up i think firstly is becoz two of our closest friend to her Cherylyn and Zhong yue are Christians. Secondly God has sent the Holy Spirit to work in her.

Mee leng went to both church but she was scared by Cherylyn's church. Caterlic!
I went Cherylyn's church once becoz of a friend who invited me to her church to see.
Zhong yue's church i think is a tradition church? ok not sure, shall fine out..

I shared the gosepl from beginning until donno where... but i did share about the creation and cross.
She responded positively and not offended by what i've told her. It is something to thank God for.
She did say that me, Zhong yue and cherylyn have shared with her are the same. So i just told her that is the truth. "This is the word of God!"

Anyway shall follow up with her in msn again.

Give Thanks

Had a wonderful fellowship today.
Time seems past fast again.
The fellowship today seems not enough to me. hahaha

Thank Tracy 老师's neighbour for preparing the marinated chickens and pineapple rice for us.
The neighbour indeed help Tracy 老师 alot. Tracy 老师 call her " 师父!"
Baby as well will 请教 the 师父 for help.

We had a wonderful sharing as well.
Thank sis Rene for preparing the song "Chu Ni Yi Wai" and "Give Thanks"

'Give Thanks'
This song we didn't sing for about half a year or more.
I told Jerry that we should bring out this song to sing during singspiration.
Surprisingly, most of them don't know the song 'Give Thanks'. Kuan 老师 was surprised as most of the them don't know the song. He even said "HUH? It's a famous song."
Before that when Kuan 老师 said "HEY! Lets Sing Give Thanks. Most of them responded "Oh the song so familiar or i don't know how to sing and even, what's song is that?."
Guess we focus too much on chinese christian songs and have neglected few good english songs.

Btw, we only sang that 2 songs out of 4 songs that sis Rene have choosen for singspiration.

'Chu Ni Yi Wai'
I can't imagine without God, what i will be like now.
Becoz of God the comforter and strength, in times of difficulties, He have carried me through. Really, Something to thank God for.
Ok! my randomness gonna start..
Now, I wanna sing 'His Able!" KAAAHAAAHAA!!!

This few months, I've learned to pray every morning on the bus on my way to work as well as giving thanks to God and reflecting on what God has done for me each week.
Ok suddenly thought of another song.. 'Did You Ever Talk To God Above?'. Random me.. Kaaaa! X)

Kuan 老师 taught us to pray for each and every brothers and sisters needs and problems. And he gave an example on how we should pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Anyway, I had a fruitful night today. :)
Hmm.. kinda miss my group members.
But no matter who will still be in the same group or not for next year,
pray that we will continue to come for fellowship to study the word of God and to worship the Lord together despite of our busy schedule.

Sorry! the photos quite blur as they move about here and there.

Yesterday went ps to spent my Christmas eve with a friend.
Usually will meet for occasions like Birthday and Christmas.
Woah we shop for 3 hours plus in Ps.. I wonder why time files so fast.
Yay! My friend bought me my fav game for christmas present.
Expensive present for $43.90, The Sims 2 game. SO HAPPY!
Got a shock when my friend paid up.

Every shop that i went in..
When i say oh~ i like this or that and even cute, the reply from my friend will say,"Buy La!"
I will sure reply back saying, " I got no money, next time when i got the money then buy."
After awhile when my friend kept telling me "Buy La!" i got to realise the meaning behind it was that my friend will pay for it.
When i hold some stuff on my hand, my friend will try to snatch or pretend to say "I hold for you." So i will pretend as well that i dont want the stuff and sneak out from my friend and quickly pay for the stuff i wanna buy.
Man! if not everything i hold will be my Christmas presents. haha!

Yay Today The Christmas Concert was good.
Thank God, everything went well and even better than before the rehearsal.
Yup! The Power of Prayer, that was what Kuan lao shi said.. that carry us through.
He even told us about having a pianist to play for the choir. Becoz of prayer, we have our pianist who is Trixie to play for us. He even said not all pianist would like to play piano especially for like concerts. Some will even give excuses like, no time, scare, not good at it... etc
But when Kuan Lao shi asked Trixie to help, Trixie agreed without hesitating to help out as pianist and like wise for Jasmine to click the power point slides.
So that's were the things we should thank God for.. :)

I didn't sleep well yesterday, kept waking up.

From morning 6:30am i woke up to prepare to go to church for my first day of attachment in toddlers class.
Not bad after all, it was fun. But i miss worshiping together with the rest at the main hall. Now can fully understood how Nicole felt when she told me sadly that she needs to play piano for the children's worship and couldn't sit through for the whole worship service.
Toddlers class, Jin Yan Yakim is a active boy. He can talk or imitate you when you talk as well. Quite Cute.
I'm quite impressed by Hao wen's Lord's supper recitation, he can memorize well.

After church went to Dr Yip's house to witness the baptism.
Congratulations to the 8 candidates who have confirmed to be baptised in the name of the Lord.

Yup! thank God once again that Imouto can drive now from her house to church.

After Dr Yip's house, went to Uncle Ah Mee's house for caroling and to witness David's 16 years of growth in maturity from a boy to men.

It was fun after all but tiring. Reached home at 10:04pm. Exhausted!!!
YOZ!

Went to church for choir practise yesterday.
After choir practise, me and mei ling rush out from the church office and head towards the bus stop to take a bus to my aunts house.
When we reach the bus stop, mei ling suddenly wanna go toilet.
So i asked mei ling to go in ITE balestier to use the toilet there since she's quite urgent and our ride takes us 1 hr and 30 minutes to reach. GAAA!

In the bus, suddenly me and mei ling took hilarious pictures and laugh among ourselves. Hee!
(guess mei ling's blog will put up our pictures)

Yay! got my chirstmas present with things that i wanted.
erm.. actually i bought the things i want myself and my aunties just pay for it. hahaha...

Lots of good food too. So Full.

Went shopping with James, Mei ling and Imouto..
Me and Imouto found this shirt at parco bugis junction level 2, and the bottom have layers of yellow, solid yellow to green in colour.
The shirt brightens my day when i saw it. So happy! but the shirt cost $24.

Went to bugis street after that..
Imouto bought a shirt that comes in two separate pieces for $13.
Can u believe it? $13.
Need me to say again? ONLY $13. Cheap!!!
The bargain was so successful once i told Imouto that the things sell in bugis street can bargain with the sales person. Happy!
Usual price was $15, but to bargain for much lower price for the shirt, is abit hard.
Guess in order to clear the clothing in the shop, the sales person dont mind lowering the price by $2.

ok la.. quite fun to shop today.

Yesterday, the childcare having their graduation cum annual concert at tampines cc.

Quite happy to know more children from other classes especially those in K2.

I started off by doing weird actions and i did chip munks voice. They simply just laugh like crazy and they were like trying to imitate me. Within few minutes, i got closer with K2 children.

Not bad, got to work backstage with the children by taking care of them, touch up their make up, gel their hair etc..

The best performance was done by K2 children, 'Tarzan And Jane'

Anyway i've taken few photos and i even have few videos recorded. But only can watch the videos from my hp.

On sat went out with Imouto and Gloria at Ps.
We did spent alot as usual for things that we need and to give away gifts.

Sunday choir practise was fun.
We sang from 1 plus to 3:30pm. Man our throat cant take it any more.
Couldnt speak properly as well.
We have fun singing in the end. So long never have this joy in singing.

After choir practise went to Bishan with James and Imouto.
Yup started spending my money again on food and a pen.

Man! more and more bruises on my hands.
My right hand got two blue blacks. One got it few days ago and the other was today.. wonder how i got those blue blacks on my hand.
My left wrist got a cut and my thump got a cut as well.

New boy called Yui Han came to the childcare today.
He so active that he cant sit for at least 5 minutes. Kept running around to disturb other children when the children are having their lessons. So distracting.
Thank goodness, the mother came early to fetch him home.
He only 10 months old yet he look so big in size.
So tiring and frustrating to take care of Amanda and Yui Han. Two new kids.
Amanda still can sit still if i put her on my lap or somethings get into her interest.

Abit busy in childcare lately for the annual concert on 16 dec and planning for Christmas party in Childcare on 24? . On 17 Dec, teachers will be going on a retreat donno where, maybe to malaysia?

Today, the children in the childcare having their rehearsal for the year concert in mid December.. I wonder, which date. :X

I saw talented kids who can dance to the beat and remember the steps as well. All round of applause to them. Good Job, well done!

Introducing, The Childcare that i work in...



The view of main entrance where ppl come in and out from that gate.





This is the classroom i'm always in..



the tables and chairs are meant for children to eat and to do their workbook.
So usually the teachers will set up the tables and chairs for lunch and tea break.


one of the deco's in our classroom notice board. Quite cool!


Home corner, where the children sometimes will stay here to play with toys.


Toilet... also the place where they bath.


the small toilet bowl. It seems dirty in this photo but actually quite clean.


A new gal came into our class just now.. She's quite smart, active and can talk very well only in english. Amanda Chua, 2 years old. The family background quite messy too. Poorthing.

Went out with Imouto, Mei Ling and James after church today.
Went to Isetan Japanese Market at Wheellock Orchard. It has been for months since me and Imouto went there to shop and to buy Jap food and snacks to party among ourselves.
After that we went to borders, kino at Taka and Art friend.
Bought alot of things today..
Spent about $30, but thanks to my Posb card as i have brought it along with me.
Quite happy to go out with few of them today. So long never go out together.

Man! i got a headache today.
When i woke up this morning, a bit dizzy and pain.
Felt so restless this morning again.

Today choir practise kept rubbing my forehead.
My head felt so tight and heavy.

After that went to my grandma's house for dinner.
My grandma was happy to see me today.
It's has been for months that i never go up to my uncle's house to see her.

I saw a bank saving toy that i wanted to buy last time at my uncle's house just now.
Kept playing with it.



Oh sadly to say that my lap top programme cant match with my printer.
That is why my printer always cannot print although i did install the driver to my lap top.
My uncle came to my house just now, trying to fix and see what was the problem.
Wire connection and everything was fine.. But just donno why it couldn't print.
So my uncle brought home the printer to try at his computer. And guess what? it can be printed. It works well at my uncle's computer.
My uncle said probably the the software problem in my laptop that occurs the problem.

Oh my lap top got error message appears every time i go into the window startup screen.
My uncle tells me to reformat if possible. So guess i need a Window Cd to reformat my lap top.
YAY! YAF WELCOME PARTY ENDED...
MAN, FELT SO RELIEVED AND HAPPY NOW.

Thank God, that everything when smoothly and well.
I did rehearse what i needed to say and do in my brian for the welcome party.
That's why i cant concentrate on other things recently.. Scare will missed out some parts that i need to do for the welcome party.
Stress? yeah quite stress...

Things to do and prepare...
I need to lead singspiration.
Plan for Bi Qing Lao Shi's and Jing Jing's birthday cake and prez.
Been thinking how to play the song game to make it fun. (It gives me a headache)
Just simply plan for the whole programme. (I'm the chairman of the day)
Sms brothers and sisters whether they could share during YAF sharing.
First time leading and planning for so many programmes within 2 hours plus.

A wonderful stressful experiences.


Gift i bought for brothers and sisters who will be joining YAF next year


Yeah.. i sms the gals on the left to come. Ran Ran sms Xian Mei and the rest, but they were not in the photo.
I didn't talk to Xian Mei today. sad! But she did disturb me as usual by calling my name and she did weird actions to make me laugh when i led singspiration.
Man! she is fun..

Like to thank my mum, early in the morning 7:40am went down to the photocopy shop around my house area to help me photocopy my song sheets as she needed to rush to somewhere else today.

Thank God for everything.... nothing is impossible with God.

In childcare today, i got a kissed on my cheek from Marilyned. Yay! so happy
Becoz i sang the Barney song "I love you, you love me, we are happy family with a great big hug and a kiss from me to you. Won't you say you love me too."
A bit shock when she ran towards me to hug and to kiss on my cheek.

so busy today in childcare.
I led children in writing Christmas Cards, during break time do abit of colouring for decos in childcare and sorting out CDs to put in CD cover. Busy killing cockroaches too.. killed 4 today too as the people spraying the insecticide around the HTB flat.
More and more things to do and prepare in Childcare as Christmas and New Year are coming.
Man so tired today.

Went down to The Comic Shop after work at whitesand shopping mall to buy 8 notebooks for new comers in YAF. Rush to church for prayer meeting after that. urgh...

On sat was my mum's 49th Birthday.
Bought Tiramisu cake for my mummy.
My family like the Tiramisu cake very much.. yummy!

Haha Wan Xin still under my care. I wonder if i'm not around in the childcare, who will be the next teacher to feed her.
Wan Xin really stick to me so close that if other children sit or rest their head on my lap, she will push them away. Sometimes she will stand beside me and to lean against me, but her emotions will hint me to carry her, if not she will cry.
Guess her jealousy rate quite high. Although Alvis will react this way too but he only needs attention from us.
The baby Wan Xin woah... can't tahan her. Just now i left her in the classroom with other children and teachers there as i brought Trisha to the toilet.
1 minute later, Wan Xin started crying.
Siti ask Cindy's daughter Hui Hui, "Why Wan Xin cry?" HuiHui said that Wan Xin wants teacher Shandy(that's me). So Siti carried Wan Xin to find me in the toilet. Siti even called me "GOD MA!" man... haha!
If i stretch out my hands to carry her, she will allow me to carry. Other teachers, she may not want them to carry. So she's quite fussy choosing people she likes and allowing them to feed and to carry.



Taking their nap.


Wan Xin, Sleepy Face.


She look fierce here..waha~


I MISS AH MING! MING MING, WHY YOU NEVER COME TO SCHOOL?
NOT FUN WITHOUT YOU IN CHILDCARE. (other teachers said the same thing too)
