My Holidays have BEGUN!
and they've been off to a flying start... hahaha.. this morning had an exhausting time trying to wake up from my bed at 7am... the weather is just so cold and so shiok to just lie underneath my comforter and sleep... but I had to go for service... so got changed, woke up alex and winston and then we went to pick and david and gavin... apparantly when we got to their place, david was still in the bathroom and gavin hadn't woken up yet!!! so they made us late.. hahaha.. no lah late only to meet melissa... then today's service was awesome... Wayne shared on the 3 most famous words of the hour.. "IT IS FINISHED!!" yes the work of Jesus was finished, is finished, and will always be finished!!! We are redeemed by His death!! woohoO!!!
then one whole big grp of us went for brunch at Fat Boys where they have the $4 breakfast... toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, tomatoes... =) then we headed home for a while, cos we were all still pretty full to have lunch... after hanging around a while, melissa suggested going down to the gold coast! =) winston was off at his friend's place for some 'dry swimming' (refer to Benson's terminology if you do not understand), so alex, me, david and mel went.. drove mel's new car... its a delightful small little package.. but the brakes are way too soft!! had to remind myself to step harder a few times... hehehe...
the air temperature was cold man, so we went for a run before getting into the water... then it wasn't so bad... had some wave crashing in the ocean.. then a freak shower came along and we had to hide out in one of the buildings on the beachfront... talk about suay man... but we did catch an awesome rainbow.. it was so beautiful...
anyways headed home after that to wash up then went to david's house for dinner, DOMINO'S AGAIN!!! hahahaha.. we brought rockmelon though!! hehehe... but it was all good.. had some fun on his PSOne playing KOF99 and Winning Eleven... and watching the Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas on tv before coming back home... its been a long day...
well tell u about tom!! I'm going ROCK CLIMBING!!! yep going to Kangaroo Point where there's a natural cliff face.. going with the Rock Climbing Life Group from church... they've got all the equipment and stuff, and it's free!!! good for exercise too.. hehehe =) picking ppl up at 7am man!!! then after that, come home, grab lunch, then its jamming and Easter service at Internationals!! We're following the American tradition this year, with smart casual attire and FOOD!! hahahaha...
