As usual, i spent my friday night at cell group meeting, man was that a really sad moment for us as bernice, our good ole cell group leader. My current cell group, e488, was created about five years ago by bernice! since then, i have been always under her. Oh actually, before e488, there were the w351 days #OLDBIRDSFTW when we were all under Jer Blinn and during that time, bernice was a connect group leader! wow can you imagine the great change? 

so finally, after having been through crazy times, fun times, awesome sing along sessions like these...

oh and not forgetting THESE

these videos are like super old school man, this one was taken with a 2MP phone?? like yeah say hi to the 360p videos. this was a long time ago, when the cell group was barely one year old? that time, nicole was still around :/ darn darn sigh i really miss my good friend!! >.< our clique used to have loads of fun together, but now that everyone has gone to pursue further education/work, we end up being apart.

okay okay okay that's friday. initially, i wanted to write it out like a list, like so..

friday:

saturday:

sunday:

but NOPE as usual, i strayed off course. kinda retarded right? 

but anyway, getting back, i found myself extremely busy on a saturday! like since when am i ever NOT busy on a saturday anyway? somehow, every week i will have something to do. sheesh and btw, i'm actually trying to compile all my songs, like really do up a good and comprehensive music library. but that seems to be crawling as i have nerf projects to do, yeah nerf guns. hmm extra random errands to do, and for this weekend, it was church! instead of the conventional sunday services that we had, this week it was EMERGE weekend! so it becomes two fun filled services catered towards the teenagers and young adults age group. EMERGE is an awesome start up by the leaders of my church, City Harvest Church, and it's all about empowering the youths to reach out to the masses! since Jesus, and His disciples did likewise when they were our age then. and its been working well, bringing revival to the students in various schools! hmmm yeah saturday was spent like that! oh i was in church, from 12pm to about 5..? 

Then after that there was Pacific Rim HOOOOo

that movie is soooo good! 

*movie spoiler*

the trailer had this part whereby they grabbed the container ship, YEAH THATS BOSS. there is some build up about that in the movie too. i'm such a spoiler! you should totally watch it man. (yes i'm damn slow cuz im busy) but hey! i totally love the concept that something is so big to handle that you actually require two brains instead of one. however....i found the movie focusing too much on the protagonists. aaaand there wasnt so much of a build up of story, like how the veyagas improved from mk1 to mk5.. its like just boom, say hi to mk1, and to your right, *camera pans* mk5! wohoo! nah not exactly my cuppa tea but oh well, the action in the movie, especially the connecting of brains made up for the lost in story build up! that was really interesting and it wasn't like pure action and somehow, just somehow, the carnage didnt seem as 'bad' as Superman. lmao. something's wrong with me xD okay that's pretty much how i spent saturday. OH and i spent a reeeeeally long time thinking on what to buy for Jerome's baptism present. it was kinda hard to think about what to buy, and after finally settling on a book, wow there were so many to choose from T.T 

oh then sunday was spent....Jerome's Baptism! WOHOOOO congrats jerome!! 

*Imaginary spamming photos but unable to do so cuz im blogging in camp*

yeah imma so proud of ya that you reached a new milestone in your Christian walk! :D im soooo gonna spam photos and edit this portion once i have the time to.

but after that, i had to rush from one end of singapore to town! coincidentally, i watched pacific rim at the Cathay on saturday and on sunday, i watched Despicable me2! hahaha that movie was realy funny man, i actually thought that the movie would not be as impressing since this whole minions thing have been going on for some time and like the 'shock factor' was already present in the first movie. but it was really funny! :D best of all, i got to watch it with jolyn!!

I had a really really awesome time being able to chat with her and i really learnt a lot during that time! hah we used to be classmates in Pioneer Junior College, but back then, we didnt talk as much! as in yes we did talk, but not heart to heart stuff. get what i mean? just simple on-the-surface talking. Whereas this time round, we are able to share with each other our christian values, what our pastors teach us in our churches, then we can teach each other on what we took away from various experiences. I really enjoy learning about other people's perspectives, like how they actually view their lives! we chatted for like 5 hours?! time really flew when we were chatting man, in fact, i think time was flying in a fighter jet. *YEAH I'M THAT LAME* cant believe im proud to be this lame, but hey, that's Ming Yang for ya! :D Thank God that when i am feeling down, He suddenly used a classmate of mine to speak words of affirmation and encouragement into my soul. :D EXTREMELY thankful for that!!! We just sat at starbucks, had a wonderful slice of cheese cake. HEHE just found out that we both LOVE cheesecake!! Then we tried that new white pudding thingy drinks from starbuks. those felt really so milk tea-ish since they are the ones usually coming up with such stuffs! So we sat on the high stools, arms on the tall table (or whatever nonsense you call it) and just looked at people walk past Plaza Singapura as we happily chatted and discussed about issues!

Ahhhhh and sooner than i expected, we soon had to part ways, and i had to book in. SIGH PIE. woes of an army personnel. You actually have to book in, so you cant hang out too late on a sunday night :/ but oh well! i had combat shoot on the following day, which was yesterday. man, did i make new friends! Gonna blog about in a separate post, in the mean time, i gotta go now and do some signals work!
