Early gifts!

Hey hey, to our surprise, we received some early gifts for baby already! Thank God, thank God!

1) From UK, Miss Joelle Cheng presenting...

Baby blanket wrap for baby when she goes home after birth.. *sweet*


I love these 2 sets. Cheeky wordings.. keke..




Thanks Joelle, you never fail to care for the baby.... :)


2) From US, Junming & Xiaofang....


Look at the box, and the 'ribbon'! so sweet... i almost didnt want to open it becos its too sweet to unwrap! Aw....


Ralph Lauren dress...


A praying doll! Press on her body and she will say a little prayer for your baby... *double Aw*
Can put this beside her cot and someone will say a little prayer for my girl every nite before she zzz... keke...


And finally, a book that will come in handy, i believe. Infact i am more than halfway reading thru it alrdy! :)



Ming and fang, what can i say... its beyond words... :)

Oh, its growing! :P

Ok, many have been asking me for pictures and some updates abt my pregnancy process. Actually, including me, i know of another 7-8 frens/relatives who are also pregnant like me! Wow....All beri productive wor.. haha..

Anw, i was telling one of my frens who is also pregnant that i think being pregnant is kinda FUN. Yes, you didnt see wrongly, i wrote FUN. Keke. Seeing how your body changes week by week, seeing how the embryo becomes a foetus and then become a small little being in you.. and finally now, she can be called a baby... all this changes and its process are FUN!

Everytime i see the baby thru the Ultrascan, i feel like crying, becos you are literally seeing your own baby wor. You see her little body, and her little hands and legs, you hear how fast her heart beats (really very fast.. pongpongpongpongpong..), you feel like tearing whenever she moves her hand and leg. You know that its real. There is a life in you right now!

Ai yo, but becos my gynea is always very busy and thus whenever its my turn, i have no time to be EMO. I need to quickly listen to what he has to say for me and the baby development and then thats it, i am outside waiting for my turn to get medicine and to fix the next appt le. So, even if i wanna get a little emo, also cant la... keke.. but i personally feel that its good to tear a little here and there during ultrascan, afterall i am a human ma. Who wouldnt get emotional when looking at their own child?

Anyhow, this was what i have been thru thus far in my pregnancy process:
(as far as i can rem..)

5th week : Shocked and a little surprised! :)
6-13th week : Super giddy, super nauseous with NO appettite at all. Just the thought of food makes me want to vomit. REALLY. :(
15-25th week(now) : Increased in appettite. Crave for sweet stuff! For those of you that know me, i dont really like chocolates, cakes and ice-cream, but after i am preggy, wow.. i am always thinking of sweet food. Til date i think i have eaten up 5 boxes of Sarah Lee's Chocolate Swirl Cake! *GRIN*

Anw, one of my concerns now is my weight gain. I have gained a total of 5.5kgs. not a lot BUT i also dont it to be a lot... if not its gonna be hard for me to shed them off after birth! So i am kinda controlling the amt of food i eat per day. But but but... i still feast like once every 2 weeks. keke..
My target is not to go beyond 57kgs all in all. Hm.

Ok 3 pictures for you all to see la. :) i realised that i haven been taking pictures during my pregnancy, so my preg pics are very limited! haha...

5th month...

5.5th month...
Ok, i know my 5.5 mth look a bit small.. look like 4.5 mth... hee...

6th Month...



More to come in the next 1 - 2 mths (if i can rem to take pictures and post it up here! hee..)

<蜀绣> by 李宇春

芙蓉城三月雨纷纷 四月绣花针
羽毛扇遥指千军阵 锦缎裁几寸
看铁马踏冰河 丝线缝韶华 红尘千帐灯
山水一程风雪再一程

红烛枕五月花叶深 六月杏花村
红酥手青丝万千根 姻缘多一分
等残阳照孤影 牡丹染铜樽 满城牧笛声
伊人倚门望君踏归程


君可见刺绣每一针 有人为你疼
君可见牡丹开一生 有人为你等
江河入海奔 万物为谁春
明月照不 尽离别人

君可见刺绣又一针 有人为你疼
君可见夏雨秋风 有人为你等
翠竹泣墨痕 锦书画不成
情针意线绣不尽 鸳鸯枕


此生笑傲风月瘦如刀 催人老
来世与君暮暮又朝朝 多逍遥

绕指柔破锦千万针 杜鹃啼血声
芙蓉花蜀国尽缤纷 转眼尘归尘
战歌送离人 行人欲断魂
浓情蜜意此话当真

Where I Belong.

20 years for City Harvest Church (CHC)....

We started with just 20 young people.

Their pockets were empty, but their hearts were FULL. Full of passion for God. They held the Fire of God. Like Olympic, that FIRE continued until now....

I 'accidentally' came to CHC in 1995. Came for 2 reasons: 1) I wanted to see how a church is like but yet didnt want my parents to find out that i had tried attending a church, so i purposely chose one that's far from where i stayed - Paya Lebar. 2) I came because the guy that i had secretly admire then was in this church! haha...

But my accidentally became purposely. God had set me up (and i am glad that He did that! :) ) I got saved, intergrated and before i know, CHC has become my HOME.

Of course, it was in CHC where many things happened (for good of cos). They contribute to my growth and once again, i think its another set up by God. Ha. :)

This is a place where i know who were my frens, a place where i know who were not my frens, a place where i found him, a place where i found & formed my own family, a place where i realised my destiny and potential for God, a place where my character was moulded and formed to be more Godly, a place where i call HOME.

A place where i was taught 'teachability', 'accountability', 'responsbility', 'maturity' in God, 'balance' of life, 'faith', 'place of agreement is the place of power', and many many more.....

Remembered the times where we queued up under hot sun on a typical Sunday afternoon, just to have good seats, with all our full make up melting, sweating in our 'formal attire' (wow), wearing high heal shoes somemore. hm, those were the days.

Remembered the times where due to space contraints, at times, we could only hold our leaders admin meeting, seating on the steps outside the main audi.

Remembered the times where we used to meet our new frens at Paya Lebar MRT and walk them to Hollywood. Those times where we used to frequent Mac and KFC because we need a place for BS. *GRIN*. Oh not forgetting Lion City Hotel. we held some meetings there too.

Year 2000 - Sun's crossover project
Year 2001 - 2004 - Media report on our church, on Pst Kong, Sun.
Not forgetting our own Building Fund Campaigns...

From 20 to hundreds, to thousands, to ten thousands, until now... more than 27,ooo CHC-ers. :) God is good, so faithful.

Time flies of cos... when i just came, i would never expect that i will stay and make this my HOME. But i stayed and 14 years have passed. I thank God that he led me to this church. I wouldnt know where i will be or what i will be doing if i have never attend CH before.

If someone were to ask me "Do you think you will ever leave your church?" My reply, "No, becos i am "stuck" here alrdy, and there will be no turning back for me whatsoever."

Happy 20th Birthday, City Harvest...
