It's been a rough going week for me. Somehow, negativity & doubts weighed heavily in my heart. But it set me praying more and seeking God desperately. During one such afternoon I opened the bible and read James. "Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of different kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

This May is probably most packed with celebrations! After helping out at SOLEAD graduation, I chiohed my bro, cousins n aunt for movie n dinner, to celebrate my bro's n cousin's birthdays. I was coughing throughout sigh but really thought it was a gd time of being together since we were busy with our own stuff most of the time. After the long 3hr show, we brought hungry Aaron to Makan Sutra n later ice cream at Hagen Daz.. Then comes Lee Huan's birthday party! Itz the first time I organised a birthday party. And it being a 21st birthday I really hoped it will be special for her. It was fun but at times stretching. Lee Huan really looked pretty in her retro style make up n hair do. She shared her thanks to Mum n family members, friends and to God too:)
