pretty calories

went to carpenter and cook for the first time today with gisella :) was quite shocked that we were actually going out because we haven't spoken much to each other before, except over twitter and some casual talk irl. despite that we talked for 3 hours non stop!! without any instances or awkward silence or anything :))))) hehehe i like gis she's nice to talk to and funny yay :> 

anyway about the food : the meringue tart is sooooo good omg ok maybe just because i like meringues and like tarts but yes it was a great combi and the tart looks pretty!! actually carpenter and cook is very pretty in general hahaha. plates and table all very nice. the chocolate tart was not bad too, tasted a bit like salted daim which i like hehe. carrot cake was not bad too!! we took the last piece hehe. so yeah we just talked and talked and went over to alfero for pistachio gelato and talked again hehe. the 3 hours flew by i'm still amazed at how we met up for the first time and could just comfortably talk :) 

anyway had to leave for dinner and sean's baptism. dtf hahaha omg today was such a good food day!! but more importantly, i'm so proud of my brother and thankful that he finally has a proper relationship with God. he may not look it but i can sense that he is quite close to God. he even signed up for baptism alone without any of his friends going. i remember how long i hesitated to go for my baptism because i was scared of this scared of that. but he just went ahead with it and when i asked if anyone else was going with him, he even said that baptism is his own decision and he will not let his friends affect his decision :') i used to always worry that he'd grow up going to church but not knowing God. common problems of second (or rather, 4th) generation christians. more often than not they end up leaving by the time they grow old enough to make a decision for themselves because God has always been the God of their parents but not God of themselves. i'm glad this isn't the case for my family, for i can quite safely say that we all have our own relationship with God now :) hope sean keeps growing and seeking God :))))) 

hehehe half excited but half dreading tomorrow. dreading because i have to lead cell and i haven't done so for like what, a year?! horribly rusty plus expectations are so much higher now and kit's shoes are too big for small me to fill. figuratively and literally ahhaha. but ilene is coming for service and i miss her!!! haven't seen her for an entire week hahaha seems short but it feels very long :(
