somewhat sille, that's me!

found out from her daddy's FB stat that my god daughter Angel started kindergarten this year yesterday (obviously i'm a very good godma lol)! has it been 4 years already? wow..

this is angel with her two lovely godmas on the day she was born (19-jul-06)!
aww.. so adorable ^__^ yeah, the baby too! ;)

i rber the time PS & SP and i making the effort to come together every other week to share, study & pray. we first met at secret recipe, but then moved on to meeting at our homes. i rber the rotation of meeting venues, from my place in sri petaling, to serdang, to cheras..

i rber the prayer book that we kept and so excitedly tick off as we see our prayers being answered.. we prayed for our jobs and subsequent career moves, for our families, for our spiritual walk and church life..

i rber preparing for PS' wedding.. the huge card that we made for her.. i rber suet's story about meeting this guy at a friend's dinner, the same guy who is now her hubby..

i rber the list of "things to do before we turn 30" that we made when we were 26 (i think list in stuck between the pages of rick warren's purpose driven life book which we were going thru together (but never finished! :P)). i rber checking the list at 30.. and having yet to fulfil half that list, among others to bake a cake and to finish the bible from cover to cover.. and some of the things that came thru, like visiting one ASEAN country/year and having a new car (i actually listed 2nd hand, but PTL for a new one ^__^)

i rber noticing that life was getting ahead of us. family, church, business, work.. and we began to meet less.. from every week, to once a month, to during festive seasons, and now, i can't rber when was the last time i saw them -- and PS is already 8 month preggers! i called her today, and she said we must meet again before she delivers. haha, yeah we should.


on the same subject of old friends..

i received a rather unexpected call today (yeah, it's been a good day!) from a friend whom i've not been in contact for a while now. just before christmas, i thought of (it's the thought that counts! =) writing him email but i never finished it -- and now that he got to me 1st, he somehow thinks that gave him the bragging rights -__-". hahaha..

for someone i met on a mission trip once back in my varsity years and then maybe 3 times again after (incl the hi-bye during his wedding), this long-distance friendship has somehow survived the 8 years of email correspondence [ok, maybe 3-4 years of actual writing, the remaining being the gaps. oh, i think email weren't a big thing yet then. yeahh, there was a time when not everyone has an email. yeahh, i am that old. :(]

we chatted for a long while, updating each other on the major stuff ongoing in our lives, trading thoughts and advice, briefly revisiting the past and peering into the future. i'd a blast.


it's nice to have friends whom i rarely talk to but yet could still connect to as if we just did yesterday. :)
