The One & Only

I got baptised yesterday. *big wild clapping of hands plus whistling* :D


After 16 entire years of life. I have finally come to the point where I've decided to give my all to the glory of God, to serve Him and to love Him with all my heart, soul and mind.


FYI, if you didn't know what is baptism.. It's basically an event where a person publicly confesses his or her faith in the Lord Jesus and is later pushed into or baptise with water. Yes, I did get wet. & yes, I did get a gulp or two of the water. I breathed the wrong way. I was actually supposed to breath out because you're in water (duhh..) but no, I was too clever. I breathed in. And that's how I got the sort of sore throat that's I'm having now. But I have no complains. If I could, I would do it all over again. It's fun. Especially being the only one to get baptised. 


The star of the night. Cheh.. ;]


My mom invited her whole gang of friends from our ex-church. All the aunties and uncles I grew up to know. It was amazing, the feeling, to be with all the people you know who loves you. 


I was all smiles that night. Too many "Congratulations" to reply to with a "Thank You". Pictures to be taken. Hugs to be received. I felt blessed. 


Although one thing that made me disappointed was that, not many youths came for this event. The teachers came but not the students. But oh wells, maybe they had things on. (Y)


Dad gave me a book on "The Secrets to a Happy Life". I asked him what was the reason he gave me the book. Was it because I wasn't happy enough? He said no, but it was because I did not really understand what happiness truly is. After a moment of processed thoughts, I figured it was the same meaning after all, but put in nicer words. Hah.. 


Mom gave me a book too. About "Making Decisions". I make wrong decisions all the time. xP


My younger brother gave me a hand-me-down book. A picture book, a present from my mom to him. And now, him to me. *laughs* The title is.. 


"Because I Love You". 

From this Moment - Shania Twain
The song we'll be singing for Yueen San's wedding.
