went for an evangelistic event at my church today at night instead of merely just going to orchard road to "soak up the atmosphere". and you know what, methinks it's much much better than prancing around orchard road...
i think soaking up the atmosphere makes no sense if u don't even know the whole point of it.. so seriously amidst the glittering lights and fanciful bargains, I don't think there's much meaning... but somehow, the joy I felt at seeing family members of friends accepting Christ on this special day.. really touched my heart...
and to feel the real meaning of Christmas... the joy that God sent his only son to earth to save us from our sins.. something we cannot do either by our own merit or by our own thoughts... it's amazing lor.
i'm actually pretty sad that I nearly forgot about the whole meaning of christmas whilst frantically rushing through my essays... was even lamenting I had no chance to go orchard road and shop and all the crap... geez.
so people, know the true meaning of christmas? If not, come down to any of the churches on 25th, Christ's birthday to join in the celebrations and understand the true meaning of it all!
on an afterthought, Narnia was pretty decent, despite the incredibly cheesy moments during Peter's rite of passage into adulthood... i mean all the knightly stuff he was trying to do.. people were actually laughing at it... but overall, Tilda Swinton rocked man! acting like a complete dominatrix feminazi amazion warrior.. i know the idiot of a linken would start saying I'm living vicariously through such characters by screw him lor.
oh well... i just realised... MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
and i am gonna "kope" a picture from dan's blog... here's my "class" gathering @ marche yet again... haha.. the rest of the class is scattered round the world..
