We had a fabulous time over at Kelvin and Wendy's place yesterday.. they are really one of the best hosts of all time (next to Michelle, Aiting and Ronghui..hee..) .. basically it's just another nua-ing session.. I reached there abt 2pm.. way out of the intended 9plus in the morning.. ha. thnks to the lazy side of me.. and sorry to Patrick for not taking the lift I requested.. tui bu qi..

but ya..it was a good time.. we played Saboteur.. trying hard to spot the miners and the saboteurs and teaming up to beat the other team.. so much so for the 'Miners of the world unite!' and 'Saboteurs of the world unite!'.. we're a little distracted playing Citadel though.. cos after Saboteur, our brain juice are depleted.. and who else but Wendy won Citadel..

Dinner was superb!! Linda's black peppar crabs were superlicious!! Whoever's her boyfriend will be a blessed guy indeed.. she's unassuming, pretty, sweet, crabby, diligent, cranky at times.. (any takers?? ha..).. and ya.. of cos the pizza, pasta, KFC.. thank you hosts..

oh.. not forgetting the recorded version of 'So you think you can dance' .. wow.. the way they spin and jump and groove and execute the choreographies.. man.. wonder if I will ever be like them.. but ya enjoyed myself just watching..

so ya.. wonderful time we had.. i love being around my fav people.. :D looking forward to more time as such... next time I'll host my own party.. in my own home.. next time..hehs..

A kindergarten teacher has decided to let her class play a game. The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a few potatoes. Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child hates, so the number of potatoes that a child will put in his/her plastic bag will depend on the number of people he/she hates.

So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes with the name of the people he/she hated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3 while some up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry with them the potatoes in the plastic bag wherever they go (even to the toilet) for 1 week.

Days after days passed by,and the children started to complain due to the unpleasant smell let out by the rotten potatoes. Besides, those having 5 potatoes also had to carry heavier bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because the game had finally ended....The teacher asked: "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for 1 week?". The children let out their frustrations and started complaining of the trouble that they had to go through having to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they go.

Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the game. The teacher said: "This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred for somebody inside your heart. The stench of hatred will contaminate your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot tolerate the smell of rotten potatoes for just 1 week, can you imagine what is it like to have the stench of hatred in your heart for your lifetime???"

Moral of the story:Throw away any hatred for anyone from your heart so that youwill not carry sins for a lifetime. Forgiving others is the best attitudeto take! Love others even if you don't like them

True love is not loving a perfect person but loving an imperfect person perfectly


I find this story so true.. it actually takes a lot to hate someone.. one has to gather all his/her energy to always be reminded that they hate someone.. and they get so suck up into the world of hatred that they miss all the beautiful things around them... isn't it so true?? The world will be a better place with a little less hatred and a lot (a lot a lot) more love

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
'Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work:
If one falls down,his friend can help him up.
But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!
Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?

Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.'
