Here at 7.45pm, i just completed a short jog around the queenstown neighbourhood. and as i sit here blogging, sweating profusely. ha..yes profusely is the word. never knew i could possibly sweat so much! as a young child, i was the only one in the family who wouldn't sweat. Could u believe it? My mum and sis sweat easily and i was the one who wouldnt sweat no matter what- even under the hottest weather. and u know abt the theory that if u dont sweat, it is unhealthy cos the salt in u cant get out. LOL. that was then. now i sweat. Ha..a jog is good! feel so fresh and awake now!Today is a beautiful day, a beautiful Sunday. I woke up early enough to go for the 9am service. Being in church on a Sunday really makes all the difference. It set the whole day in the right perspective. God's presence was so strong, sweet and comforting and soothing. I asked myself, where could anywhere else possibly be better than in God's house? No wonder King David had only 1 request he asked of God. He said in Psalms 27:4 ,"One thing I ask of the Lord,
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord
and to seek him in his temple."
truly, better is one day in the house of God than thousands elsewhere. truly, nowhere can be better than in God's presence. after church, i went Redhill market for breakfast and to find mummy. After that i went home, and wanted to take a short nap, wake up at 1pm and do some work. then.. i slept right through to 4.45pm, woken up by mummy's call! LOL. i was supposed to meet her for dinner. Then i washed up and went to meet mummy for dinner at Alexandra. But it was a good sleep. I felt more refreshed after the LONG nap. then after dinner, mummy suggested strolling along the newly built bridge structure. It was SOOO COOOL...very beautiful scenery. Should have brought my camera! Oh, the place we went to was called Hortpark. . then we walked from there to Telok Blangah Hill Park. The bridge structure is so COOL... u could really get a good view of the surrounding neighbourhood. There was no high rise buildings to block the view. U get the full view of the forest and greenery. In fact, there was quite a crowd of people using the bridge. U could use the bridge to get to Kent Ridge Park, Telok Blangah Park or Mount Faber! So exciting right! The Henderson Waves is also completed liao.. i wanted to go there but mummy decided not to walk further. nvm, next time! Anyway the bridge is so near my house! (",)It was a good walk with mummy. Initially mummy was so scared of the height that she held on to my arm. Then she slowly overcame her fear of heights and dared to look down, and walked alone! YEah! It was a good bonding session for me and mummy. She is so cute la. And i really should spend more time with Mummy. sometimes i'd wish i could give mummy a better life.. if only i earn more, i could give her more. if only i were smarter, then maybe i wouldnt make her worry so much. really feel that mummy deserves better after being through so much in life. so i sometimes wished i could give her a better life. but deep down i know i could give mummy lots of money and it wouldnt make her happier. but if i would spend more time with her, she would be!that's a mother heart isnt it? it is so simple. there is really no point earning lots of money and neglecting time with your family and loved ones. =)after the walk, we came home. and i decided to go jog! Mummy was against it cos she said quite late liao, but i insisted and told her will only be a short run. So i put on my sister's sports shoes (shhhh, dont tell her! but she reads my blog! oh..ha), cos mine is spoilt liao, and went to jog around the neighbourhood! It was a slow jog though, din want to risk killing myself. LOL. I think i jogged for about 15 minutes, then head home. Could have jogged further but decided not to cos getting dark. OH this is quite random, but did u read about the molest case in NUS? So scary rite? I cant remember if i've used that walkway before, looked familiar.. anyway, better dont risk it ya..even if its a shortcut. So....NO LATE nights home for me! Yes i m serious. I will be a cinderella that reaches home before 12am LATEST. LOL.This is my beautiful sunday. Jesus is my beautiful saviour.
