24 Oct 09 was another major event for LB after Befriending Walk. Annual Appreciation Dinner, this is a day we appreciate our volunteers who worked so closely with us and sacrifice their precious time to serve lonely seniors without expecting any rewards in return. Coincidentally, it is held in OCC, where is like a second home to me.

The day just before the event, my right eye is swollen! Can you imagine how discouraged and panic I was? Goodness mine, my duty was on stage where everyone will be facing! At that moment, thoughts like "how embarrassing!", "How am I going to face anybody!?"

I prayed and went to see 2 doctors both said it will takes 3 days at least. Magically, My eye is healed the next day! the swell went away totally when the event is about to begin! THANKS GOD!

As most of you knows I am kinda addicted to make ups, of course, I won't let the chance to display my skills slip off through my fingers! Emily and I went to freshen up ourselves, I volunteered myself to doll her up. Luckily, I had my make ups all with me!

Than, 2 more colleagues became my models as well. Fantastic! Thinking back, I have not shop for makeups for quite a while! I feel like shopping for makeups and clothing again!

I need blender brush, shades of blue eye shadows, purple mascara... Clothing and more clothing!! Month end is here.. Someone, date me out for a spree please! Meng Hwee is busy with school now. How sad~

Finally! After months~

We gotta meet up with WEILI, the busy woman! After several months, we managed to catch up with her and dined at Ajisen lot 1. First, we updated each other on our current status.

Then, we recapped of how we behaved, what we did in secondary. This is when I realised we have all grown. Next year will be our 21st, thus we have got to be responsible for ourselves and what we do.

In SSG, there are ones who are attached, working, studying.. It is really hard to get the same time off together. It is unlike those days in Fajar where we get to see each other everyday.

There are things that I've regretted:

1. There are times that I did not cherish the times together with SSG. Fighting over trivial matters and distanced myself from the gang.

2. I did not give the basic trust to Meng Hwee. For months, we were in cold wars and I even suspected her of being cunning after hearing all the gossips from a third party.

But thanks God, after all these we are bonded closer together. It seems that God planned all these to put our friendship to a test. From these, we understand one another better and cherish this gang more than ever. Therefore I am proud to say..

WE PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS! Praise the Lord~

This is backdated to 10 October 2009.

I went for a 1 day trip to Malaysia Yong Peng with the volunteers at Mei Ling. We all gathered at 630am on a cooling Saturday. There were 16 of us excluding the 'Lions' from Lions Club.

Before the trip, the relationship between the volunteers and I is good. But after the trip, we are one stronger than before to the extend that I can address some by Grandpa and Godma.
