WARNING: may contain spiritual message(may only)

ok will start with saturday; after i got to eddy's place in the mornin(like 1 or 2 am) i just watched the guys play their leauge and since i brought my classical to lend ec while im at bmt i showed nic how to play smoke on the water and gave timmy a crash course with Kelly Clarkson's Behind These Hazel Eyes(the song that got me to commit to learning the guitar; thanks becky!) so now nic is keen on learning the guitar too.

other than that just sat around waiting for mel to vacate the bed in that room so i could crash(was really tired, and think my late nights have taken their toll, the back of my hands were pale, like yellow) n slept for a good enough 6 hrs(give or take) then woke up at 10 in time for our planned breakfast, but the rest only were ready to leave at 11 so we missed mac's hotcakes. but lucky when we got there they still had 2 left(but no hashbrowns) so mel took one and i got the other(thanks nic) n then had shaker fries indian style(since nic didnt upsize it for me it came with a small fries n i didnt want to use the bag thing casue quite leh chey, so just poured out the fries n mixed it with my fingers)

*im running out of tea so this may or may not get to sunday, probably not*

then after that i went off to get the posters and post cards done up for sunday's publicity drive for Overtime(speaking of, every catholic youth that reads this please come down on the 23rd of June for Overtime, its in the attic of the Church of Christ the King at 230pm till about 6pm. there will be ice breakers, praise and worship, teaching and fellowship after. so please do come down. there will be a registration on the 17th of June in church) and walked all over AMK(from the HUB to courts) before i found a printing place that would do coloured posters and the people there were really nice about it. (there was some complication with printing A3 size posters casue they were not sure how to change the paper size on the printer program on the com so they asked me to fiddle with it and were quite happy when i figured it out) and it was cheaper than the place jo had printed the last posters from.

then i went back to bishan to the photo development place where i inteded to get the postcards made at, but the woman wasnt very nice about it and was very reluctant to do it. all in all VERY unhelpful. so i was a little disheartered and went back to eddy's to drop off the posters and just happend to be when the worship team were doin their last practice for the day which was more or less a worship session, so i could 'sit' in with them during it and the first song was Holy Is The Lord and the line 'we stand and lift up our hands, for the joy of the lord is our strenght' casue i had been running around for the past 3hrs, almost non-stop and i was really stoned in the morning, but was pretty alert the whole day despite running on consecutive nights with lack of sleep.

and after that talked over the options with jo and ben and decided we would just go back to the printing shop i had done the posters at and try our luck(casue origianaly they said they dont do postcards) and in the end they gave us exactly what we wanted in the begining. and they were really good quality and plus they didnt charge us for the extra work they had to do and on top of that they gave us like 4 extras casue we wanted 100 cards but they had to be printed in sets of 8, so we got 4 cards free. and on top of that they even cut it nicely and professionally for us.

and our original idea was to just print it on paper n paste it to vanguard but the printing shop had thicker paper n we just printed it staight on. and the lady said since they used toner it gives a nicer finish and doesnt smuge even when wet(which was proven when amanda wet one of them, not sure how though) and it was all done for about $5 more than i originaly thought it would cost, but turned out to be worth it. what makes it that much more amazing is that we were the last customers. like as we were paying for the cards they were closing shop and their business card said the closed at 5 and it was like 510 or so. and they were very sweet, casue when it came out the 2 designs were right next to each other and the lady was sayin that it may not be perfect and we may lose some of the info so she suggested cutting with a border around the black design to be safe and it turned out to look really nice.

then me n ben stopped by prime mart to pick up some Ramlee burgers for everyone back at eddy's n i had to rush off soon after to be at 47 for the farewell dinner, which i managed to drag felicia along to, and she got a bit of a shock that eventough we were 'late'(dinner was at 7 we got there at like 8ish) there was still food coming out and being served. n got to eat quite a bit of love cake, plus it was fairly mushy, just the way i like it! haha. n everyone was goin on about my hair and how its the last time in a long while it will be spiked up.

all in all a good day. and now my pot of tea is empty and so i sleep!
