Thursday, December 21, 2006: happydays.
mm today was a pretty good day (: did the things i had to which made me feel more relieved, and also did the things i didnt want to. like walking the whole of orchard! which was, might i add, a mighty big task to accomplish since i'm a very lazy person, but i did it! :D hurray for me. we walked until my legs were sore and sore and sore until they wanted to drop off. lol. it was not a pretty sight. and the floor was wet. butohwells. (: shant complain when i'm getting excercise.
mmm, saw michelle saram in orchard today, she is STICK thin. and she was walking VERY fast. i was trailing behind her, and i was (as usual, like i always do to anyone) observing her and how people around her act. some actually pointed and went "look, michelle saram" so loudly i bet she heard it too, some just stared. some didnt even see anything and just walked past blindly. i was just thinking, its pretty sad to be an actress. you dont really get your own privacy. you cant go places, for fear people recognise you and point you out. especially when you're an actress who, most of the time, get the bad woman, third party roles. it is Not Very Good at all. i was thinking, on the way up on the escalator, how on earth do they live their lifestyles? what happens when they need something? do they ask their butler, hey i need you to buy me a bar of soap from the supermarket? i want XXX brand. do they even have butlers? what do they do at home all day? how about their kids, IF they have kids? hahaha, now you must be thinking, why kristi think until so far? siao leh she. hahaha, oh well. thats what i like to do. think. especially random things (:
today was pretty cool though. (: prash, ken lee, and i went out and spent alot of time at taka. we walked through almost the whole of the building! first was the toy shop on the art friend floor. we spent a heck load of time playing those stupid puzzles that you had to solve, like the metal things where you had to undo them and put them back together again. (i bet you dont know what i'm talking about.) and then we went to the toy section of the dept store, and looked at more toys again. i tell you! today was like some get-the-toy-for-christmas expedition! so many toys! hahah, but it was a fun day with kelin and prash. (: they keep me young. haha, i'm growing old!
saw random people today too!! haha, like mikey and rae. (: and tashy-san (topandasani) came from indo to here for a day (a day!!!! i know!!!!) and she's going home tommorrow morning. i'm like. !!!! ahhh, and i didnt get to meet her. ): boo.
i like christmas. (: i especially like the story, and the spirit of it all.
first the story: God sent Jesus down to earth to bless us all with the greatest gift, salvation. and perhaps this has been the most retold story of all, and repetition means the meaning might be lost among the commercialisation (or is it -ism?), but i still think its very special. (: you know, if God didnt send Jesus down we wouldnt all be saved by his blood 33 years after that. the whole "nativity story" tells us about how Jesus was born in a manger, and yet He was the King of all kings! Jesus was humbled, so that we can be saved. how amazing God's purpose is!
the spirit: i love it how people get all excited about christmas. how the spirit of giving is stirred. how everyone learns finally to share, to give (although sometimes unwillingly), but basically there's cheer all around. (: i feel happy for christmas. i feel glad that i have the chance to celebrate christmas. i feel thankful for everyone around me. i feel pleased that i've got the greatest One to watch over me. i feel cheerful, because i know i can be, and i can share the happiness all around. (: i love christmas. fullstop.
life can be so weird at times cant it? i just need to remember to look up, and turn back to God, and to talk to Him about its ups and downs, so that i will never lose sight of the one who holds me safely in His hands, and has the plans that are better than the ones i make for my life (:
a shout of praise.
