Hello Everyone,I'm back.
Missed you guys, but right now, I really really miss Cebu.
I miss the food,
I miss my room, complete with A/C and Cable TV (!!!)
I miss the lazy afternoons watching MTV and Nick
I miss the gratification of a bath after getting all sticky from the whole day
I miss the long rides singing stupid songs together
I miss staying up late at night watching horror movies and shrieking
I miss falling asleep while watching TV on the bed
I miss ordering delivery under stupid names and laughing over it
I miss the kids singing their adorable tuneless songs at the daycare centre
I miss watching them dance
I miss the long tiring walks up the mountain, with the kids running ahead and pulling us along
I miss the children, and their big ready smiles when you call their names,
when you hug them,
when you carry them
I miss Kyle and giving her piggyback rides down the hill with her laughter ringing
Jessie Joy who doesn't stop sucking his thumb
Yuwan and Yuthu, and their adorable smiles,
And all the rest of them, I love you
I miss the humongous pizzas and watching the guys stuff their faces,
I miss the Om staff and teasing them,
I miss walking together with our arms linked,
I miss falling asleep on each other and in awkward positions,
laughing at the Australian channel,
and just the six of us doing the stupidest things
Tabi Daryl Slime Joshy Kenny!
I couldn't have asked for more.
I miss you, yes I do.
My heart is still back in Cebu

Happy Birthday Zhu-Er/Joey!
You've always been there encouraging me on in school and also my Christian walk, thank you so much! And you always bring joy and laughter with you, and you have this really beautiful, optimistic view and you always want to see the best in everyone, and yes you truly have a heart of Gold :) Thank you for all the times, I love you loads!
Met Jien at Vivo to pick up a present for Joe/ find her camp! We got her a pair of shades from F21 and ended up walking around. Ooooh I saw this amazing cupcake book, I've never seen such pretty cupcakes oh my gosh :O I'm so going to make them for Christmas! Yeah and lunched at Carls Jr, then camwhored at the waterpark hehe! Joe's camp near Keppel towers were a killer to find, but we did it! And yeah happy birthday my dear, so sorry it was kinda last minute and rushed. Hope the cake was good too!
Thanks Jien, I really enjoy spending time just talking to you and doing stupid things and people watching! (Haha the guy with the too-tight jeans, eeeep!)
Couple hours more and I'll be leaving for Cebu! I'm pretty excited, definitely looking forward to it :) Leaving behind all my problems here and just having a good time with the children and rediscovering myself.
Until next friday!

Friday at Sarah's!I seriously have to say I love Choir, like supercalifragilistically a lot. Its just pretty amazing how people of different backgrounds and personalities can come together with only one thing in common : Singing. Being together with you guys makes me forget everything out of choir and its so easy just to be yourself there.
Love you guysssss!
Hahaha guitar hero world tour (Which I admit I'm super bad at), hot CEOs (tsktsk Min-wei!), awesome food, cute boy! (Krispin hahaha, HE'S MINE SYL!) Our concert's going to be da bombz! :D (Ooooh got nice new clothes from Zara and Pullandbear, thank you mummy!)
Saturday
After Raymonds, went down to KAP to meet Jien! Had Ice-cream (again) and finished up our card for Rachel, made our way over the Ngee Ann poly and yeah we were lost there for the next half-an hour? Its so big omg! Yeah anyway we got there and Rachel's friends were all there, some were from Sc heh. yeah Shanice thought Jien and I were from St margs! Funny, we were like, noooo we're from your school hahaha. Yeah and Jien and I are awesome ok, we started the fires with our fanning! Yeah and yeah RACHEL TOH THE GENIUSSSS DECIDED TO BE VERY SMART HUHHHH. But seriously who knew Singapore was that small! And yeah it was super drama when her friend went missing and we all panicked thinking she was lost or like murdered or smth, but turns out she was emoing and had a dead phone. And we both got annoyed and two little girls, who forced us to get off the swings! Kids nowadays D: Yup but all in all, had nice talk time with Jien!
Church on Sunday!
It was practicum omg I was super nervous, but yes thank you for Yi Hui, I'm really glad we're together for this and thanks for eveything my dear! You were a real natural, like everyone says :) And you can do it for next week! And know you can, you don't need me there haha but I'll help you as much as I can now, don't worry! And for the worship team, awesome job you guys! Its your first time and I think it was good :D Haha I'm sorry about the glitch! I hope you guys didn't get in trouble because of it, really sorry!
10 minutes before worship, Jean asked me to sing and I was like, "Now? Sure!" and she's like, "No for the actual thing!" Haha yeah and thats how I got hauled in. But yeah it was pretty fun, except I wasn't familiar with half the songs, sorry guys!
Cebu Mt meeting, sorted out stuff and printed stuff haha. Ohhhh my gosh its like 3 more days to Cebu Mt! I'm excited :)
Monday
Jien came over and we baked Oreo Cheesecake together! Yummzz its good haha :D I'll pass you some soon, before I leave. And we ended up watching this super funny taiwanese show hahaha he found all the thingys in the end! Hahaha its quite hard to explain, but aren't all those programmes like that haha.

Went out with Slimezzz yesterday! At Wisma/ Taka heh. Haha super funny, we set out looking for stuff for the Cebu Mt but ended up doing a bunch of stupid things. I HAD ICE CREAM AGAIN OH NOOOO. Dairy Queen's Waffle cone! Slimey told me to try it but she didn't warn me it was like a mountain of ice cream luh! It was like, more than my lunch or smth. Haha stupid girl, we were like squeezing through some pillar thing when she turned around "Careful Char, You might not be able to squeeze through!" Thaaaaanks man. Anyway I couldn't finish the huge mound of ice cream and she finished it up (hohoho that was your plan rightttt) Went to Taka's kids department and laughed at the Barbies! Heh damn retarded luh, Pom Pom Diva Barbie! Haha the moving toys were so freaky yuckkkk, the baby doll can like move its mouth and pee and everything now :O Bought candy for the 96 girls from Marks and Spencer! Yum they'd better like it hahaha. Then we watched Madagascar at Lido, met Gilda (with her extensions) and Desiree. I still like the first show better! But it was still cute haha :DAhhhhh I finally finished preparing for Dg time! Phewww. I'm still kinda nervous but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me :)
I think this is sooooo funny haha
Ahhh shopping with Mommy and Choir meeting at Sarah's house laterrrr!

Ahhhh today was super fun!Left house at 10 to meet Rach and Syl at Bugis Mrt, Syl was late! But hahaha it was really funny, she sent a bunch of stupid smses to Rach like, "I'm at commonwealth now, where everyone is rich!" and "I'm at Queenstown, where the royalty lives." Wowwzzz Syl -.- Yeah anyway, we had lunch at The Soup Spoon, Rach kept bugging me on how I could just drink soup for lunch. Its a meal my dear girl, or else they wouldn't be in business rightttt. Haha Syl joined us later, and Rachel refused to finish her soup cos she was too full. I told her to think of the poor starving kids and she said, "Think of me growing sideways!" Yeahhhh hmmmm thats like, virtually impossible.
Yeah we went to Bugis street which had nice new stuff, I got a floral Tank top and Syl got a really cute pair of shoes (black with cupcakes and candy on it!) And Rach got this adorable tuxedo pattern pouch from Victoria Jomo and her Fred perry shirt. Then we began out super long walk to Haji lane, and Syl suddenly had an itchy nose and needed something cold to put on it haha, and she was like, "I need to buy a drink for my nose!" Hahaha it actually makes sense excapt it sounds quite nonsensical hahaha.
Haji lane was gorgeous! We went crazy over all the kitschy designed stores and amazing clothes/accesories! Omg I want to go backkkkk. And I got a pair of jeans from collage, Blue-grey skinnies, originally priced at $79 but at 70% off! Amazingggggg. Yeah and syl got this adorable sparkly bubble skirt for only $10 :O House of japan had some cute stuff, but we were kinda in a rush so yeah I didn't really look. And I saw a gorgeous dress at Soon lee! I want it for my Prommmmm. Its green and black and has a funky one-shoulder pattern. I LOVE ITTTT! Ohhh and then we had ice cream at Pluck! Yummmzz cookies and cream and chocolate :) I seriously have to stop pigging out on ice cream! I've been having Icecream everyday for the past 4 days or smth. Yeah and then I left to go to church, and Rach and Syl went to costume shop/ Stage image to get their dance stuffff.
Went for the Cebu Mt meeting, finished the Star thingy ahha! Slime and I braved the rain to go to evergreen and WCP to buy the plastic board thingys, ugh omg the rain was super freaky! But yeah there was this point we were walking on the road and it was pouring, I turned to Sarah and said, "If I die on this road, I love you Slimey! " And she was like, "I love you too!" Hahaha and we both started laughing stupidly and got even wetter heh. But yeah after it all I popped by the youth room and the guys (Kenny Jason Weifeng Joshy and the rest) were playing their blind mice game HAHAHAHA IT WAS REALLY AMUSING! Ok at first I wanted to play, but they were like no not safe! So I hugged this pillow in front of me and like tried to prepare myself (I honestly didn't know how to play it luh) and THEY TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS. Omg I freaked out and screamed hahaha and they turned it back on haha. Yeah but it was really funny! I ended up sitting it out with Ting, but still amusing nonetheless!
K Pictures from today!
Love you guyssss!

Aughhhhh I thought my holidays were here.Been pretty busy lately preparing for the Cebu Mission trip/ Youth camp/ Dgl training! Idk why but yeah time just seems to be slipping out of my fingersssss, there doesn't seem to be enough ever!
I can't believe Cebu Mt's next friday, it just seems amazingly fast (and unprepared-ish!) But yeah I'm excited and nervous. Went down to church with Slime and Kenny to do this huge star thing for the Cebu Mt, ughhh my hand was killing me from all the cutting haha! But yeah we more or less finished most of it, yay! Hahaha we were listening to 98.7, super amusing haha. Shan and Roz like, called up Steven Lim who apparently is advertising for a Girlfriend, and is paying her 5000bucks to be his girlfriend :O Hahaha Roz pretended to be Faith from Taiwan and made enquiries and everything, And Steven Lim was like, "You can apply on my website!" My gosh you have to pay a girl to actually be with you, still need application ah! Yeahhhh and Roz was like, "I have a nice set of .... tits." And we were all like HAHAHA OMG! Funny funny.
Went down to school today for Chem class ughhh, but yeah I think Mrs Choo's a really good Chem teacher! I want her to teach me next year manzzz. She's like super clear and is actually interesting luhh. After that, rushed home to shower/change to meet Mel at Far East. Met Munling on the bus and she joined us at Carl's Jr for a while. Yeah we talked and talked and it was really fun haha :) Then Munny had to go for her Piano class at Kembangan (!!) yeah so Mel and I went to get Ice-cream from this cute Turkish restaurant! Haha the guy was really funny! Yeah and we talked about everything we wanted to (i think?) , and walked around looking at clothes and stuff haha. Then Mel had training so I went home haha. Ok I was really sleepy, and I like set my alarm to wake up half-an-hour later cos I had to do Raymond's work, but apparently I slept right through it! Which is quite amazing cos its super loud and I put it next to my head. Hmmm! Yeah anyway I woke up with no time to do my homework, oh wellll. Yeah so I did it on the Journey there! Haha I always end up doing that, quite embarassing heh heh heh.
Ahhhh tomorrow will be funnnnn, Rachel Syl I will be going to Haji lane to eat shop Camwhoreee! Hahaha we're like Scrooooz cos Mayann's in NY, the lucky duckkkk. Then at 4 I have my Cebu Mt meeting! Yahhhhh.
I can't wait for next week so I can pack my luggage! I really like packing luggage haha I always look forward to it hohoho. Yeah I know its really strange haha but I find it really FUN :D

Omg I'm listening to the High School Musical Soundtrackkkk (Thanks Belle!), I think its so cute hahaha :D I heart Sharpayyyyy!Went for my (Final!) Immunisation thingy today, and my arm is still killing me ahhhh! I got to skip Amath today, hurhur. Reached school about 10plus and late for Lit lecture, so I snuck in through the backdoor and no one really noticed me! Haha but it was freaking boring and I slept most of it away. I thought no one noticed, but apparently Jien did hehheh. Moved next to Syl during SS, and then while the poor higher MT girls had more classes, the rest of the choir girls (Min-wei, Britt, Teri, Syl, Nat, Mayann, Jasmine and I) went to Novena for lunch haha :) And we ate at Mos burger cos that was probably the only thing Min-wei was sure she could eat, the poor girl's allergic to like half the types of food out there! :O Don't worry, there's gluten-free Chocolate out there! Yeah and I saw ______! Mayann agrees, he's sooooo cute! Rawrrawrrawrrrrr.
Thennn back to Choir, we learned our Syf set piece! Its slow and dull (so far) and I actually prefer huang pi ma to it, hahaha!
Talked to Jien and Veee while walking home (what little time that is D: ) And yeah thanks for listening you twoooo. Ahhh Vee's the best! Cos I was offering them my organic cashew nuts and raisins (its yummy okayyyyy), so just before she boarded the bus, Vera Toh Yi Huan turned and said REALLY LOUDLY, "Bye Char! Have Fun with your Nuts!" Yeah and there was this huge awkward silence around the bus stop, or maybe only I felt it. But yes, I have really embarassing friends.
Belle Slime Nette came over yesterday after church! We went to Bpp first to pick up ingredients, hahaha. (Omg and I saw _____ ! Why is singapore so small -.- ) We made tomato soup pasta with these really cute pasta in the shape of plane, trains and cars, super cute :D And then we made Honey joys! I'm pretty sure they'll stay fresh in the fridge until Saturday for the potluck thingy, at most i'll make more luhhh. And they called me like future housewife or smth the whole time, and predicted my future husband will be like some bum or smth, ohnoooooo D: Hahaha! Played truth or dare, which ended up to be some full-blown secret sharing session haha :) But it was really awesome taking time out to just spend time together and I really really loved it (Even if it means cleaning up all the dishes after you guys) Until next time, I love you guysssssss!
From Belle's blog:

I love you guys like crazy!
