Remorseful!

This shouldn't be how I feel towards the ending of 2007.. but guess what, I killed a lizard. It's like the common lizard at home, only it's black. It certainly does look creepy and I don't want it to come out of nowhere and frighten the hell out of me. Hence, I tried to cover it with a tupperware and then take it out of the house, so that it might live. However, it ran too fast, and I was frantically trying to cover it. I finally got it, but in the next second, I saw some blood and instantly I knew I had hurt it. I took it out of the house, but it think it wasn't moving when I left it beside the tree.. Oh, I feel so bad!!! The lizard looks a little like the picture below, only it's much smaller (probably 3 inches long). We are surrounded by greens ie park, trees, grass etc. So inevitably, some insects/reptiles will come into the house. Ohh... what should I do?

"I think I better take the picture of the lizard off before someone begins to have nightmare, if they keep looking at it (it's probably going to be me). Hehe =) "

Merry Christmas 2007!

BLESSED CHRISTMAS!

It's the time everyone's been waiting for. A time to be with loved ones, a time to give and receive, a time to share, a time of joy, peace and love. Although we don't have our families here, we are still very much taken care of by God and are very much part of our church and friends circle. Leading up to Christmas has been so busy, unlike last year. We had my in-laws to celebrate Christmas last year and we didn't partake in any church activities nor celebrated with friends. So it was a quiet, peaceful little Christmas.

This year was the total opposite, perhaps more for me. I have been running up and down, buying presents, food, going to and fro church for musical practice and driving everywhere for visiting. Phew, a really busy but merry little Christmas, this year.

Also, it's time to reveal the presents I got for Andrew. I woke up to my surprise this morning, and saw a present wrapped up nicely just for me on my way to the toilet. I was so thrilled, and then it hit me, that it's CHRISTMAS! Thank you my darling...

Here are pictures of our presents!

~ HERS~

P/S: Since he loves his cooking and especially steak, I thought I should get him a steak pan! And he on the other hand, had to ask a favour from his female colleagues to help him choose the bag for me. How sweet of him and so unexpected. =) Everything I tell him, he does take note and in this instance, I did tell him before that I don't really have a working handbag and I should get one. In addition, white is my favourite colour!

Christmas Space Odyssey First night!

It was an amazing evening. The show went well, everything was great. The choir, the dance, the actors, the lightings the slideshow.. you name it. Truly, God's presence was amongst us. He is to be glorified through all that we do, else everything we do is meaningless.

I'm still trying to upload the video for the dance, so bear with me. Here are some photos of our dance and rehearsal. Enjoy!

Obsessed with dancing

I'm loving lyrical dance, which is a combination of ballet and jazz..I hope I will be able to join dancing class next year... =) This duo dance is awesome and I love every move. The choreography is just so beautiful and sweet. This really motivates me to want to dance. I had better do something about my dreams before I get too old.
Dancing is something I truly love, the part I worry is the training. It is not easy. I am also worried that I am too old to start learning. I am quite petite in size and people tend to think I'm still young. So I'm going to use it to my advantage and use it while I can. Enjoy the video clip!



Just in case you would like to know the names of the dancers, they are Amanda Ocampo (7 yrs old) and Clarisse Chavez (17 yrs old).

Christmas Space Odyssey 2007

Christmas Space Odyssey is near. We only have about a week to practice. Because of time constraint, I'm only doing one dance, which is not so stressed for me. Somehow, I find myself a bit too old to even remember some of the steps.. I feel like fulfilling my own dreams to dance again. Anyway, here's the promo for the musical by our church. Although I am a little worried for the whole production, our pastor seems to be so enthusiastic and confident that it will be a real good musical. I guess that's how our faith differs. I guess I should have more faith in God to make all these turn out well.
