Far Out!

Wow this weekend was a blast. Christmas party with the PUNJers on Saturday @ Ruth's, followed by a nice carolling service on Sunday, and water polo @ S'pore Sports School with some of the PUNJers and the post-PUNJers, and had a nice dinner with Wenz at his place on Sunday night.

The party at Ruth's was pretty enjoyable. Kudos the guys that organised it. I couldn't recognise half the pple there cos a lot of them were newcomers! It was quite fun meeting the new pple. Lotsa food, good company, a nice little Christmas message by Lincoln, and gift exchange at the end.

Wld you believe I drove all the way to SAFTI from home on Sunday morning at 7 am, just so I could get my swimming trunks? Left them in office but I really didn't wanna miss out on water polo in the afternoon. Had to rush down to True Way after that to meet Chris for bible study. I really hope he's learning from it. Darryl overslept though! Dóh. Haha...will have to do a make up session with him.

Went for the 11am service, and there wasn't really a message. It was more of reading of scripture, a re-enactment of Joseph and Mary's journey, singing of Christmas carols, and even a little puppet show! The puppet show was put up by Hannah, Rachel, Vera and a few of the other youths. It was good to see the Sec sch guys getting in on the act as well. Miktham, BJ, Lance, were all playing shephard boys. Very funny. But more importantly, very encouraging.

After a very filling meal with Terence @ IKEA...

- 2 plates of Swedish Meatballs
- 1 Steak
- 6 pieces of chicken wings

Made my way down to Woodlands. The sports school is huge man. And the pool was covered by this huge hanger like ceiling, so can play during rain or shine. The water was really freezing though. Initially, we were swimming up and down chasing the ball, but after a while, everyone sorta tired out and just remained in their zones. Ha.

Afterwhich, went down to Wenzheng's at Bishan, after I found out that he was all alone (aww....) Ha! Alex had just gone to Hong Kong, and his folks and younger siblings were in Switzerland till the end of the month. Was good to see him la. His maid cooks up one wicked spaghetti, and i spent the evening watching Shrek with Wenz and his older sis.

All in all, a very fruitful weekend. Finally going out with Kailuo, Baotian and Wes this Wed. Can't wait man!
