Because it's fun we always look forward to!

Despite my on-and-off-and-on again mode of blogging, I very much enjoy cataloging the important highlights of my life on other platforms in the social media world.

Of course, Facebook will be my most updated channel what with being a project manager for applications on all most-things Facebook. Followed by Instagram and Twitter.

I enjoy Instagram for its photo-centric updates because I enjoy taking photos very much. However, I am only at 512 Instagram entries as at the time I wrote this because I only joined the platform after my 10 months sabbatical from all-things smartphones in order to focus more on what matters in my life.

Twitter isn't my thing at the moment really, unless perhaps my boss requires us to share or like a post by clients supported by other overseas teams. For me, Twitter is just a rant tool. To be honest even though I have been on it since 2007, I haven't really found the use for it.

Here to update my recent June happenings highlight (quite a few firsts actually)

Amanda's hen's night with #ihubbers and ex-ihubbers girlfriends
It was an awesome night and every girls are hyped to party, except for moi.
I have yet to finish packing up for my upcoming trip, so I had to bid goodbye to them girls. What a wet-blanket I was. Just so glad that I even came to the hotel for some drinks and truth-or-dare games!





First 2nd cousins who came to Singapore and stayed with us for 2 nights
Did i mention that I have a lot of cousins? This cousin of my is also my god-sister because our mums are our baptism God-mother and very good cousins and friends. It's such a waste I didn't get to catch up much with Zhala and her boyfriend, Carlo because of my really busy schedule over the weekend. I'm really thankful to my parents for making their stay wonderful and they really took care of them so well, too!

Zhala's Thank You post for the weekend stay =)

First Holy Concert catching Hillsong United at the Singapore Indoor Stadium
I felt weird at first, to be honest. I don't know how I should actually connect to God when it's a concert setting. I have been co-leading the worship session at Church since March this year, and I can't imagine doing it on stage. The whole entire secularism of concerts really eggs me on. I just couldn't put my focus on the right place. I decided to go in the end anyway because I wanted to experience what it feels like to attend a Christian concert. I attended with Jeremy, Wilson and wife, Mary, along with the couple's friends. 

It was exhilarating after awhile when they started singing songs that makes me mellow down and descend to my innermost being, where He resides within. Thereafter, I was able to have fun with the Lord but nearing to the end. 

First Wedding in my #DIAMONDS group
Nothing else to say really. She's tied down, hooked and so ready for commitment. She is now a wife to a guy we, her girlfriends, thought isn't good for her. But as it turned out, only a couple would truly know if they are meant for each other on their own. No amount of perception could paint the lives of lovers and it's at this moment of time that the couple learn to stand firm and be part of one another, in one communal bond that will go through a lot of tests in due time. We, their friends, will have to rough it out with them and be objective when they need help for thoughts and opinions. I continue to pray for them, that they may learn to keep the love alive - to be one in heart and soul. Amen.

First trip together to the Philippines as a complete family
I think i was still a young girl when all of us went back together as one. Most of the times since I started working, we always travel separate or don't find the need to really go together. But because our relationships with one another have greatly improved over the years, we do more things together as a family, or shall I say, I am responsive with their offers of doing things together. Prayers to our Lady for restoration of relationship truly works and my family is a testimony of it. (Will write more about this story next time)

Arranged for Baptism for Sean Isid on 22nd June, Sunday 12pm
I'm Godmother! Officially able to attend such a ceremony

I think I updated more than I actually initially wanted. Enjoy, and here's hoping for more post! =)

God bless you all <3
