Oct 6, freedom...that is the first word i told myself when i finally threw my essay into the essay box at 8am this morning! what a relief! well, as a matter of fact, the feelings of uncertainties and doubts still linger in my heart now. questions like, did i really answer the question? paul says to focus on sources...did i do enough of that? oh no...what if i didn't meet his requirements! well, i'm still worrying for the assignment, can you believe it? the stress i'm currently facing now is, it's worth 50%. if i flung this, i'll be dead-seriously dead man! hmmm....what shall i do to get rid of these lingering uncertainties? *i wonder...*

oh well, actually i came in today, now...because i have been wanting to write this down since saturday but i never get a chance to! had a wonderful saturday spent at church last week, simply unforgetable! first smile of the day happened when i was able to talk to the little ones when i first arrived at church! this was the first time i felt close to them! i prepared my children lesson study last-minute cos' i've been tied down with so much work last week. and i thought i'll be seriously bullied by those kids...but it turned out to be the best lesson i have ever done with them! kay-kay was asking questions, as in really proper questions; sandra, kien ann, kim yin and ashley participated when i told them about the bible story of how Jacob met Rachel. andrew came along and he was grinning when i gave him his belated birthday gift! and of course, when it was time for memory verse, they were at first reluctant. but eventually we recited it together and they each got their stickers! haha~ so cool!

second joy that came that day was to witness the baptism of vincent and alex. it was a great experience to listen to their testimonies...to laugh over how alex drags on and on about his stories...and to see how their testimonies have moved the hearts of some people. and when ps. foo appealed to ask who wants to be baptised in the near future, caroline and grace stood up. that very moment, tears of joy flowed. just overjoyed! i can't describe what goes on down in my heart; i just feel touched. it's great to see that they are making that decision! and i remembered how i made my decision years ago. just great!

third joy was the mooncake night! stayed around in church and helped out Uncle Euan to prepare for the night's program. what surprises me is that catharine and andrew (Euan's children) actually plays around with me! coollll! it's great to talk to these kids! makes me feel much younger! heehee. and it was great catching up with Henry too! whoh! it's been so long since i last met him...10 months since i last met him in Singapore?! yeah, great to know that he's doing well...and he told me a little secret too! that his mom made the mooncakes for that night! oh man!!! i'm so thrilled!! and yes, the night was spent talking to ps tsu, who reminds me of my ye-ye (grandfather!)...and also with alex, phil, joyce, jing and some others. great to know that i belong here. =p and of course, the night ended with delicious mooncakes! thank you, aunty! it was really really good! yummm....great! at least i didn't miss mooncakes this year! =p

it was a great saturday!
