bits + pieces

thursday night was a riot! but i can't think how to blog about it! haha... suffice to say we dithered for v long about where to eat, and finally settled on the least favourable option which we didn't know was least favourable resulting in us having to restaurant hop to fill our bellies. bleah... thanks, gal - it was truly a ngiht to remember! =D hee...

this is a passage that i read two days ago, and it has been speaking a lot to me.

"Now, listen, you who say, 'Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city...' Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What if your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, 'If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that.' As it is, you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins." James 4:13-17

it's hard to balance waiting for God's will to be revealed and doing the 'good' we see waiting to be done.

please give me wisdom, Lord =)

ok, now i'm off to DRAGON BOATING with mel's young adults ministry. hee... my first time trying this out! and i can't swim! haha.. my boat better not capsize... i hope i get a good workout. heh heh =b

[ after a morning of boating and watching scoop in the afternoon ]

i'm EXHAUSTED!!! my right arm feels like lead, and my left arm is only slightly better. heh. but it was fun! =) we rowed for about 2 hours, at the end of which our three boats had a race... and we rowed like MAD, and MY BOAT WON!!! muahahaha... yay!!!

scoop was not bad. scarlett johansohn was her usual excellent self. i am a great fan of johansohn - i think her acting is fantastic =) and hugh jackman was a treat for the eyes too. hee... overall the story was a bit... different from the usual movies i watch though. in a sense it was not so exciting... and must think more. mel said it's probably the british humour (woody allen) which i haven't watched before.

just came home and going to rest my aching body now...
