i had a lovely time just now with Clydie at Fosters! it is our annual christmas ritual isn't it? the place is just so pretty... the sofas are soooooooo comfy... devonshire cream as delicious as ever...the candles casting dreamy glow to the setting... we chose to sit further in this time near the signature rose oil painting and the pictures we took looked really different from the previous year. the present ones were richer & darker in terms of the colour... hues of burgundy & red with the candle glowing while last year's one was much brighter... i loved that we were able to capture the distinction... the rose is gorgeous.
Clydie, i'm so happy we found this place together and started our devonshire cream ritual. i am so happy for you.. where you are now... from the conversation about our future and 'the one' at starbucks to God's amazing love and sovereignty in leading you to where you are now... so happy for you. indeed trust in Him and rest in Him. thank you dear for bringing my attention to the passage. i pray for us both that we can truly discover the loveliness and power of submission. love you sweetie.

helped out at Xiaoxi's farm on thurs & friday and wheeee i felt like a superwoman after that... conducted a tour and managed to catch the frogs... hold them in my hands singlehandedly! they were huge! Bullfrogs! i was scared at first... the tadpoles and little frogs i could handle but the big ones i was still scared up to the point when i had to demonstrate to the tour group the differences between a male and female frog. i asked for 2 volunteers.. and the cutest little boy in front raised his hand,"Me me me!" haha that means i had to muster up the courage and catch those frogs! which i did! and it wasn't as scary as i thought! i was so excited that i caught them! i even conquered the fear of handling dead skinned frogs and packed them into packets for a walk in customer! so yup my first breakthrough! hearing my experiences with the frogs.. the boy was so amused and shocked.. he asked me not to touch him after i touched so many frogs. =) oh the common corny question posed to me over the 2 days at the farm by customers was : is there any frog here that turns into a prince? *faint*
On thurs, i sat on a motorbike for the 1st time! i was scared at first. But Ying was so sweet to come down to the farm to give me a lift so we can go have a nice dinner after her paper. i hopped on and we travelled for a solid 40 mins. it wasn't as scary as i thought. in fact it was pretty fun. i must add that it does not mean i'm not scared of sitting on motorbikes in the future. i think i will only sit on Ying's bike. i trust Ying. and she made me feel safe for the entire ride. the other bikes i saw were scary. they were going so fast. so yeah.. that's why i felt like a superwoman for the 2 days.. and yes Ying is a superwoman! she can drive, ride a bike, and fly a plane. How cool is that. Ying dearie.... i'm here no matter what k. keeping you & ur family in prayers. love ya. hugs.
The wedding at trinity theological college is beautiful. Once again, like aaron & shirley's wedding a year ago... the heart melts.. especially when lichuan serenaded Huiling with 2 songs. hehe loretta and i teared up. ooh and the swordbearers lining the aisle was such a nice touch. i want swordbearers too! too bad Jordan's not an army guy and that's the last thing he will be. evangeline and jeremy were at the wedding and they look so sweet and compatible. they should marry soon! haha i'm looking forward to the weddings of many many peeps. Mili! i'm eagerly anticipating yours!

Sunday was nice and cozy. sermon on the meaning of Christmas. It's all about You Lord. =) followed by lunch at the boy's place. Yummy porridge. watched HK dramas with the boy's mum and took a nap. then it was yummp fish steamboat at AMK S11. had an unforgetteble conversation over the phone with him. the connection was bad.. his words were so muffled and he ended up speaking to me in mandarin (coz the chinese words are more distinct) and it was hilarious. he can speak really well it's just so weird to hear him speak in mandarin while i was responding in english. it was great. thanks for bringing me so much laughter. i haven laughed so hard in a long time. How has the boy been doing so far in Toronto? he's been having a blast... now it's his time for essays and exams. i think he looks adorable in the fall clothing and the preppy look. e halloween getup is cute too. Please eat more and put on weight!
