magic

Welcome to Kepong Gospel Chapel Sunday School Prize Giving Day :)




First up, presentations from the children..

Std 1 and 2 (the cutest!)

And Moses crosses the red sea
while the Egyptians get swallowed up by the waters :)
Here comes Uncle Colin Wong playing a game of "guess where the water went?"


oppss... ?? where did it go?

Next up, let's make the sheep "disappear"


After the volunteer shepherd easily found the sheep (which was just thrown to the stage), Uncle Colin then speaks about the Good Shepherd who went His way to find the lost sheep.
Once we, the wandering sheep, are found, our hearts are restored and we find our home in the Shepherd's arms of love.




The End

rain

now watching the rain fall from outside my office window. I'm very blessed to have a wall that's completely "window". And it's the kind of rain that's not too heavy (i.e. dark thunderstorm kind like last evening) nor sunny.

Nice and gloomy :)

appeals to my melancholic side. I love watching raindrops on window panes / glass. Some can say it's romantic i guess, but what's so romantic about it i'm not sure. Maybe it's cause it's usually cold / chilly when it rains so the expectation is that one is to cuddle to be warm? hmm.. anyway, just a theory.. this is assuming that there is SOMEONE to cuddle with. haha! if not, just hug yourself i guess :P

Also the power and terror of a thunderstorm is pretty amazing. The swaying trees, the loud smashing sounds as the drops hit the road / roof / car / whatever. It's nice to stay indoors and listen and watch nature play out. And be amazed by it. And feeling thankful for shelter. Like yesterday evening, it was pouring and though my shoes and skirt was all wet by the time i got home, it was a nice experience nonetheless to walk in the rain. Colin walked in the rain too - without an umbrella :-/ completely soaked.

again, it's pretty romantic to walk in the rain right? or kiss in the rain or dance in the rain. haha! too many romantic movies. We wouldn't be thinking that if we've never seen a kiss in the rain scene on tv / movie. Right? ahhh.. so molded by the fantasy world of movies.

I remember the 1990's song by Nelson (the duo of twin brothers with beautiful long blond hair) called "After the Rain". I always remember the lyrics of the chorus:

After the rain, washes away the tears and all the pain,
Only after the rain, can you find true love againnnnnn


oh, rain's stopped. Back to work.
