0500 : The alarm at the car park next to my block went off! It was unbearably loud...Lord, I've to wake up at seven...why???...Took my small pillow and cover my head. The sound was much lesser. Went back to sleep...it has to be Him that I even slept back.
0730 : "The water pipe broke, you have to go collect the water next to the stairs...", was what my landlord told me at the start of the day. 'Thanks'
0820 : I took my blouse to iron to realised that the iron's not working too!
Still keeping my cool...feeling a little grumpy already. Telling myself I already burn my last weekend for the music workshop and now I've to go for another one??...ok..I should thank God for opportunities to learn. After all, our emotions & feelings follows our thoughts. So I'll keep my joy and all will be well.
0930 : Reached Dhoby Ghaut. The rest had left earlier afraid that they'll be late. Boss told me it's in Fort Canning so I thought it wasn't that difficult to find. Maybe just give a buzz to them. Standing at the entrance of the Park, I suddenly felt loss in the midst of the 'jungle'. To turn left? to turn right? to climb up?...I called my fren and her directions were like...go up the stairs..you see the white building?...I see so many stairs??and white buildings? During such moments, I think love, joy and peace seem like the last things I would think of. I finally got there with a sour face =) not knowing my boss was around the corner, she walk passed me and smiled. Opps ;)
We went into the room, still curious as to why we were there. By now, it doesn't seem like a workshop anymore with only 15 of us. There were cameras, head lights and props all around. I know they had a filming sessions a few days back with the kids...I thought then we were there to help out. My principal than told us they are filming us to produce a DVD that's going international! and our names will be on it. Wow. Sounds fun. But going on stage or any sort of presentation has never been my cup of tea. Better still, it's a music and dance cd. I can't even talk steadily in front of a class. Maybe that's why my boss didn't tell us in advance. A nice surprise haha
I can't imagine myself seeing a filming session come to live! "Scene 10, take 2". Cool =D Even a second repeat of the same scene cause us to whine a little. That's when we knew a little how actors truly felt. As tired as we were, we still pretended to be happy and energetic =D after all we are in an act. Haha
Benefits : Sandwiches and Dome Coffee for tea break. A few large packets of chips to take home(Joy happen to approach me in arrow, so I gave her the whole stack. Ashley & Dillon must be smilling now=)). A free cd with our names on it. A musical play, "We will rock you" worth $152 dollars =)
As we were about to leave, my boss asked me if she could give me a lift to where I was going. I end up persuading her to fetch me to Suntec to shop! Haha...A free ride for Arrow service and be on time for a meeting =)
I'm now into the third month of my job and I am already seeing so much of His fingerprint in it. So many blessings I never felt before in my life in just a short time. There's so much life in everything. I see myself thanking Him everyday because it's really too 'much' by the grace of God. Shirmane whom I introduced to the centre, smiles and thank God for me and this place so very often. I do that to her too =) Bring Grace into your work - Undeserve blessings!
Even when you think that things are going against you, Rejoice...He is setting you up for a greater blessing! Hahaha..
Follow the life where He's leading you. Keep the life in you. It will resurrect every area where there is death and bring to life those that are dormant .
This IS a year of manifested blessings! Grace IS with us!
