sorry for the lack of updates.. been too busy and lazy to blog.. besides, i was in bangkok for a week with no internet access.. sheesh.. but i survived.. no internet, no ipod and no mobile phone for a whole week.. thank goodness for shopping whivh distracted me.. my mum and i were insane.. we'd shop from morning to night.. we would be sooooo exhausted by the time we went to bed.. only to hvae to wake up and start all over again the next day.. but it was gooooooooood :) bought lots of stuff.. yay! so.. lots has happened since i've been back.. i'm really glad to be back.. i love the fact that i can call abbie anytime i want.. haha..

thanks to ivan, i just realised i've got 12 more days till standard chartered.. i know i'm only running 10km.. but i've totally not been preparing for it la.. im sooooo screwed.. think i better start running again.. haha.. i think i havent run in over a month.. oh dear oh dear oh dear.. im in sooo much trouble.. haha.. 2 weeks to prepare.. God pls help me!!!

been preparing for the mission trip to Cambodia.. i wanted God to stretch me and take me out of my comfort zones and before we've even left thats already happening.. my role in this trip is prayer i/c.. it may seem like an easy thing to do, but for me, it'll be a lot easier to be treasurer or in charge of logistics.. but it's good.. it's teaching me to rely on Him more and more and not to lean on my own understanding.. :) i'm really excited about this trip.. i can't wait to go.. i feel like packing my bag now, but i know it's way too soon.. patience emma, patience.. haha..

i wanna have a house party.. michell and i agreed we both wanna have a themed party.. anyone else up for it? haha.. who's house should we use? how about chris' place? haha.. i havent even asked him yet.. lol.. chris, can we crash your place? there, now i've asked.. haha..

went for mambo the first week i got back.. it was insanely crowded.. and the music was pretty bad at first.. we almost left at 2 am la.. but then we met friends and ended up staying till 5am.. by the time we got home it was 5.30.. and we were supposed to be up at 7 to go for the walk-a-thon thingy.. which we didnt wake up for.. besides, it was raining... but apparently the rain stopped and they still walked.. haha..

ok.. i suppose that's about it for now.. warning, it's a picture heavy post.. haha..
