Memorable Memories

Below are some of the jolly good times I had with some of my friends from church. Many of them are my little girlies whom I 'look after' in my youth ministry. I love them lots! Not a single time when I was with them did I feel bored or sian..in fact being with them brings out the childlikeness in me and I am so grateful for everyone of them who loves me and also like spending their time with me! :) Looking from some of the pics, I realised most of my hang out times involved food! Friends who eat together stay together!!!!!

Lim Xi and Alysson enjoying their treat at Secrets Receipe. There was the Chocoloate Banana (SR's hot cake!) and Macademia Cheesecake.

I had the Carrot Cake! And look at Alysson - her expression says it all. Lim Xi on the other hand, was able to contain her satisfaction pretty well haha...but they both ravished their cakes! But me.....

I so could not finish my portion! The cake was huge can! And the creamy cheesy layer on top didn't whet my appetite much also! Think it will be the first and last time I eat the carrot cake from Secret Recipe. The gals and I have yet to complete our mission i.e. to try out every of the cakes available at Secret Recipes! So far we have done 6 ...not sure how many to go but after their 'O's, we sure to whack the cakes again!!! Here we come.....


This was JYC's 3rd anniversary (I think). Look at how young I was then. Believe I look younger now! Haha..Beside me are Joanne Chua and Alysson! They looked so kiddish then but they have since grown up and looking every bit a beautiful princess! Joanne is now serving as a leader at JYC and I am so proud of her. Alysson needs no introduction...:)

Miaofeng, Ying Nuo and Sam. Sam is also now a leader with JYC. These gals are a wonderful testimony of how God uses this ministry to not just touch & transform lives but in turn using them to be a catalyst for change in other people's lives as well. Looking at this picture really encourages me much!



The above 3 pictures show my running buddies. Uncle Kevin, Ben Soh and Sharon. I ran my first marathon with them and our friendship became solid as a rock through all our gruelling trainings. Ben is now doing his missionary course in Perth but whenever he returns for a visit, we never fail to meet up. We may not have ran marathons together again, but we will continue to run on in the race of life together, cheering one another on.


JYC's first Over-n-Out event where we had a feast of hotdog buns with homemade bolognaise sauce, freshly made nuggest and fries. Plus we had entertainment from the Transformers and then a night of Record Breaking games! The finale to the night before we hit the sack was a sweet sweet time of Ice-Cream party! Absolutely sinful but so delicious it was impossible to resist!

The JYC leaders. My very strong team. We look so happy together right? We are. Every one of them is a gift and working alongside with them to see lives change is a privilege and I would never want to trade that for anything else. We having missing people in the pic - Lionel who was at work at the point where we took the picture and dearest At. Licheng who is away in China. Who can forget about her? She's our fantastic role model and we all miss her much!

Wo(Man) of the hour

As I read the tribute to the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, I can't help but feel this profoundly deep admiration for this immensely brilliant forefather of Singapore. I was in awe of his contributions and how his influence is so pervasive in modern Singapore, yet so few actually heard and know of his legacy. The more I read on about what people remembered of him and his long list of accolades, the more proud I am to be a Singaporean. I never knew places of interests like our zoo, bird park and even Sentosa were his ideas! These are just a tiny fraction of his contributions. My gosh....it was just an incredible discovery and I was hooked to the Saturday's Special edition on 'Remember Dr Goh Keng Swee'. Strangely, my heart was pounding as I read and later reflected on this titan's life. Instinctively, a question came to mind i.e. will there be another titan like Dr Goh, Mr Lee KY, Mr Wee Kim Wee or the other members of the Old Guard in my generation? Will I get to see one em...

Day 3 & 4 - Halong Bay

HALONG BAY Cat Ba Island (2 days, 1 night) After 1 day of exploration of Hanoi city, we headed for Halong Bay via the junkboat. Our destination was on Cat Ba Island where we stayed for the night. It was also there that we ventured onto 'Monkey' Island - not to be deceived; there was only 4 monkeys sighted. The exhilirating part of this journey was the motorbike ride to the ferry terminal to board the boat to 'Monkey' Island. Felt like I was part of a short scene of a James Bond movie (pillion with Pierce Brosnan!). Will never forget the cold draft blowing against my face and just riding up and down the slopes! Cat Ba Island is a very quiet & tranquail place. Little activity especially at night. Wanted to catch the morning activities at the fishing wharf opposite our hotel but could not wake up in time. Nonetheless, managed to capture some snippets of what goes on at the bay. Waiting patiently to board the boat. Snapped this on board the boat. Not a vietnamese but fe...

Worthy 2 Quote

" There's no higher than The Most High." - Uncle Ed Pousson " Walking right doesn't make God-lovers. Walking right just makes it easier for Him to bless and use you." - Uncle Ross Patterson. 2 powered statements from 2 power servants of God in 2 power weeks. What more can I say? Let my words be few then.
