Finally settled my wedding gown, outdoor gown and evening gown for my photoshoot! It was tiring! One word of advice to the ladies out there who have yet to get married:
Go with your girlfriends for the selection! Your hubby to be will not contribute any except the black face!
I actually selected the gowns last week but was very very unhappy with the outdoor gown (which i selected under duress after seeing BC's black face) that I request to go down and reselect the outdoor gown again. This time round, I'm smarter, I found 2 girlfriends to go down with me and it was more enjoyable!
Finally found it! Happy!
Shall give a preview of my wedding gown........ the train ONLY! Haha.
Sometimes when there are signs in front of me, I wonder what it means? Should I think it to be what I think it is or should I be skeptical and think further to think if I think too much? These few days, me and BC have been bumping into people whom we lose touch for sometimes and somehow or another, we still meet them again and again with no prior arrangements........ I wonder what is God trying to tell us...........
I was so nervous this morning when I was preparing to church for my confirmation ceremony. As the Archbishop will be anointing us, somehow I felt quite nervous. I was supposed to reach the church by 11am and I was still trying to get a cab at that time. I was so scare that I'm unable to register in time and won't get to be confirmed today. Luckily, I made it in time at abt 1110am (but was the last few). I kept rehearsing in my head what are the sentences that the Archbishop will say and my response. The feeling I had during the ceremony is no difference to how I felt during my baptism ceremony...... anticipation.......... and more anticipation.
Work this week is just hectic. The quarter-end forecasting exercise is driving me nuts. Not only did the forecasted numbers not come in on time for our review, the numbers are way above the budget which makes our review all the more difficult. Hiaz....... work is getting tough now liao......

I still remember watching an episode of a TV serial "Touched by An Angel" called "Psalm 151" during my retreat last year when I was preparing for my baptism. The episode talks about a sick and dying young boy who has a list of things that he would like to do before he dies. One of the task he would like to complete is to hear the song that his mother has started when she was expecting him but has yet to complete as she was extremely sad to know her son is very sickly and became angry with God. The angels came and together with his best friend and neighbours, they managed to help him fulfil one task by one task, except for the uncomplete song. Eventually, his mum still managed to complete the song and praising Lord as she would like to tell the world about her son's love for life in this world. She named this song "Psalm 151" and sang the song to her son in their garden together with their neighbours with the ending that the boy dies with a smile on his face and the angels bring him up the Heaven.
It was an extremely touching show that 99% of us who watched the show were tearing like nobody's business. Father Richards posted us this question, "What are the things that you would like to do before you die?". To date, I have not found any answer to this question.
Anyway, I really like the song that the mother sang in the show and it's actually called "Testify To Love".........
All the colours of the rainbow All the voices of the wind Every dream that reaches out That reaches out to find where love begins Every word of every story Every star in every sky Every corner of creation Lives to testify For as long as I shall lives I will testify to love I'll be a witness in the silences When words are not enough With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above For as long as I shall lives I will testify to love From the mountains to the valleys From the rivers to the seas Every hand that reaches out Every hand that reaches out to offer peace Every simple act of mercy Every step to kingdom come All the hope in every heart will Speak what love has done For as long as I shall lives I will testify to love I'll be a witness in the silences When words are not enough With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above For as long as I shall lives I will testify to love
Another excellent. excellent movie that I enjoyed myself very much for this weekend. It was so many years ago when I saw Transformer cartoon. Seeing the Transformers changed from / to trucks and cars in 2D cartoon is really nothing like watching the 'real' thing (created by computer graphics) on the big screen. We bought tickets to the digital version of the movie and the colour and sound effect was really great. Everything seems brighter in terms of colour and clearer in terms of sound.
Optimus Prime, the leader of Autobots was really cool!!!!! The big blue and red truck is just so cool looking. And the voice is sexily LOW........ (hahahahahah!)
The evil looking Megatron, leader of the Decepticons looks like an evil spirit with the red eyes and sharp teeth. You sure you are a robot????? Hahahaha.
