Friday

Arrg, so tired of the week's activity.. So xian!! Always disturbed by phone calls. [yes luke i know u are feeling better liao -- no need to disturb me mar]!! =S

Anyway, my brains can't connect.. I think carmen knows it well. I kept thinking that she is leaving on the 4th june or 4th july .. .and whatever nots. Well, it's actually 12th july. Gosh!!

Then I wanted to date JB out to Ubin to hike.. and I realise 2hrs later that he is in taiwan. Then 2 days later, I wanted to ask JB out to watch Sherk 2 -- Yeah clearly, my brains are just not working...

Reallie tired by all the travelling. ME just KOREA CRAZY!! i reallie thing that I'm driven crazy by Korea and Korea and Korea. YEAH!! GOSH... I think I would account this werid movement due to the HOT weather that is totally cooking my brains. I need a cooler place to cool off and chill! -- maybe an ASIAN COUNTRY to fly away too -- which brings back to the topic on KOREA. Yeah!!

That's quite like life now. Just composes a new song... [the one tt made carmen sleepy] ... and dunno what to name it as yet. Hummmmmmmmmp!! Xian. I'm neck is a little swollen. I think my pillow is a little too flat -- my neck is aching. All I can think of is winter...


[sandra] come back soon!!

Hello hello...

this evening, I joined my parents at the St Joseph's church at Queen St. Every 13th of the month, starting at 6pm, they have mass, rosary and procession and the Benediction.

The last time I went for this was perhaps more than a year ago and at that time, perhaps not many people knew about it yet. Today, I was stunned at the size of the crowd. Many people had to stand at the back and the side of the church. So comforting to know that so many people still place their trust and hopes in Mary, even when many times, life's demanding challenges really could easily steal away our faith in God and Mary.

I wanna share with you what struck me in the surmon given by Fr Edmund Chung. He shared about why Mary chose the 13th to appear to the 3 children at Fatima. Why is it always the 13th out of the many days in a month? He couldnt find the answer in books or seminars and talks. When he was searching for the answer and was meditating on it, it occurred to him that 1 = 1 God, 3 = God is made up of 3 persons. And this number is the very number satan has used to smear God with. Nowadays, it's common to hear pple saying that "ee... friday the 13th is unlucky day". Everything that's got to do with 13 is unlucky, not good. But this was the very date that Mary, full of grace, had chosen to appear to bring pple to God, and to undo the smear of satan using this number.

i thought i shared this with you bcos i too was always having this impression that 13 is not a good number, and is unlucky. So perhaps this could change your impression too if you do think the same way as i do.

alrite... take care and continue to place your faith in Mary cos as what father said, Mary intercession will bring the power of God (to work miracles).
