OOhh!!! Last sunday was one of the most unforgetable experience. I attended a birthday dinner for Father Chua just outside Blessed Sacrament Church. It was okay until ........ wait, let me describe it in my kind of 'poetic' style =D (its not that good though)
As my dad drove me to church,
I saw pure white canopies,
and as i walked in, an old couple walked past only to smile at me.
The day was breezyy,
There were uncles,aunties and a whole lotta young people,
their hands were all tied up,
making sure everything goes well that special evening.
Indeed, i assure you,it was 'special'. :)
As time draws near to 7.30 pm,
more and more people came.
There were singers,
all the way from singapore and kl to perform.
Laughters and 'happy people' filled the air and seats.
'Ladies and gentlemen,.........' said the amcee.(whatever thats spelt)

One dish after another was being served,
I saw people 'fan-ing' themselves,
complaining it was stuffy and warm.
moments later, there was wind, blowing stronger,
and stronger.
Then, i heard droplets of rain fall to the ground,
Before i know it, it was raining heavily.
Altogether with lightnings and thunders.
My mind was caught with the rain.
When i finally came to my senses,
Little children and babies were crying,
what a chaotic situation it was.
As the wind blew stronger,
the canopies were almost blown off.
Uncles, husbands,brothers and even grandfathers hold on to the pillars for support.
Suddenly i heard people shouting,
'Lets move! we can't stay! Go now! ...'
Everyone ran into the church for shelter.
Everyone was freezing and soaking wet.
Everyone panicked.
Yet, all that didn't matter as Father Chua gave a short speech.
Looking at the bright side amisdt all that.
Thinking back, the whole situation actually made us all come together. sung His songs of praise together.
A bucket of blessings from heaven.
~guess thats all i could think of to describe the situation that evening.~
It was great talking to Gerry (local christian singer from PJ) and getting some useful advices on singing old classic songs to making it 'alive' again.
