When the time strikes 11:11.. somebody is thinking of you..
Heard of this from a Korean drama.. Haha..

Well.. that's a lil random..
Something more random before i start talking about where have i been to today. My blog has been the site to record my outings, so many that i sometimes forget the details =p
I concocted my own drink ---banana oreo milkshake and it really rocks!! lols..
So sweet~ Don't need to add additional sweeteners or sugar.
Cos banana, oreo with chocolate cream & fresh milk are naturally sweet.
So when i took the first sip of the drink after putting them together in the food blender, it was awww... awfully but not too overwhelmingly sweet~


This afternoon, i attended an Easter church service with Fiona.
First time going to a church, but that church isn't the ordinary church that we usually see.
It's in Singpost Paya lebar building, never knew it's existence.. Haha.. The church is in the auditorium which is accessible by lifts behind a gate.
Today's a youth service, so there's only young people there. Makes me feel kinda old already. Lol. There's pool, foos ball, air hockey tables at the side of the auditorium and karaoke room upstairs with a food booth outdoors (like balcony)
Went earlier and sat with Fiona's friends in the karaoke room, where people are welcomed to dedicate songs to their friends & sing it in front of everyone else. There's this guy who's quite a pro in singing, picked Jay chou's song 牛仔很忙and sang & danced throughout the song. Many people clapped along~ It looks like he's holding a concert & he's certainly enjoying every moment of it =p

The service starts with the worship band singing a couple of songs, it's been a long time since i'd last listened to christian songs. Back in my sec sch days, we often had singing sessions during weekly assemblys as AHS is a missionary school. The crowd/congregation of young people is very spontaneous & enthu about it. Jumping up & down such that one can feel the floor shaking~ Oohs.

The pastor, quite young also lor..
Talked about Peace.
People around me started taking out notebooks & started copying notes, woots, so hardworking.. like studying in sch..
I came across this saying which was put up in one of the slides
'To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.' --Theodore Roosevelt (American President & winner of Nobel Prize)

4 areas of peace.. Peace with the WORLD.. Peace with PEOPLE.. Peace with MYSELF.. and of course Peace with God..
The pastor's a charismatic speaker and injects a right dose of humour every now and then to effectively catch the attention of the young audience. After speaking for sometime on the topic of peace, he said something like 'give you a verse from the Bible, to show that this is a church'
Lol.. Cos many people who first came to this church won't believe it's a church. He said 'they will go.. oh where's the cross? For your info, it's on the stage, when u come up on stage u can see it'

There's a water baptism event at the end of the service at another level.. which is like open-air plaza kinda thing in the Singpost building. Wow! It's so windy there. Fiona said it looks like an ideal venue to hold 签唱会.. yeah agree! First time witnessing water baptism... literally submerge people in water as part of a ceremony.
Interesting~
