Day 43 of OBO... Selamat Hari Raya Adilfitri

Today's a public holiday... It's Hari Raya Puasa... And it also happens to be 妹妹's birthday... Well, it was also a rather rainy day... Rained from 1100hrs onwards... It did stop in between... But it just poured... Think the monsoon's early this year... Or there's a real drastic change in the climate... The average temperature range everyday now is much higher than it was in the past... So I'm thinking it's probably the effects of global warming...

Well, I woke up at 0805hrs... That's because you called... Don't get me wrong... I'm not complaining... I always see it as a blessing when you call... 'Cause that means you're safe... We spoke until about 0825hrs when the line got cut off... Sigh... Well, I went back to nap for about another 30minutes or so before I went to take my shower... I changed and left the house at about 1000hrs to go for the 1100hrs novena session with Jillian...

That girl really knows how to get on my nerves... She lost her phone on Wednesday evening, and that made her uncontactable... Prior to today, I told her to meet me at Toa Payoh MRT Station platform at door 17... And I reminded her again when she called me this morning... She said OK and all that... I caught the train to Toa Payoh, only to find that she was not there... And we were already running late... I waited for her until 1055hrs and got fed-up and decided to leave without her... So I got on to the next train and went to Novena Station, only to find her waiting there!!!! So irritating... Don't even know how to follow simple instructions!!!!! Grrrrrr... And it didn't help that it was pouring outside and she didn't have an umbrella! She just never learns her lesson!!!

Anyway, the session had just started when we reached... So we didn't miss anything... But that's not the point... I just hate to be late for anything... Anyway, novena ended at about 1145hrs... Then Jillian and I met my family and we went to an old family friend's place for Hari Raya lunch... According to my mum, we've been going to their place for the past 18years... Well this friend used to be our part time helper... And she saw me grow up... So ya... Well we stayed there till about 1600hrs before Jillian, Nat (my sister) and I went to church while the rest of them went home... Went for choir and then for mass... And after mass, Nat and I caught the bus home... Well that's when you called... But we hardly spoke 'cause I reminded you about the Citibank charges and you insisted on calling them there and then... And you said you'd call me back later... But until now, I'm still waiting for that call... Oh well... I guess you'll probably call me at about 0300hrs again...

Well, we reached home at about 2030hrs... Had dinner... I had sayor lodeh with serundeng (it's the vegetable bit of Lontong with the coconut topping, if that's what it's called)... Dad, Mum, Nat and I were also discussing about what to name our kids and all that over dinner... Quite fun... Mum gave me a suspicious look... Dad didn't bother... Or maybe he just didn't think so far... LOL... Anyway, after dinner, I went to wash up and came online to submit the confirmation form and passport details for my mission and then after that, came here to blog... The usual stuff...

Anyway, I've got to get down to the Drum Cussac recruitment essay now... So I'm hoping to get it done and sent out by tomorrow before lunch... And tomorrow's going to be another packed day for me... I'll be going for auditions for the Christmas Musical being put up by the choir in the afternoon and then in the evening, I'll be meeting 妹妹, Andy, 姐姐, Kevin and their family and Mother and Father at the usual vegetarian restaurant to celebrate Father's birthday... So ya... Anyway, I love you darling... I miss you lots!!!! 9 more weeks before you come home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for that...
