Vampire-ish

WooHoo!!
It was a good weekend break for me though it was a VERY bloody weekend!
Went to have my teeth cleaned on Friday at a polyclinic and realized that I have to have my Wisdom tooth extracted.
Because of a VERY bad experience at the clinic's dentist, I decided to heed my manager’s advise and go for a private one.
I wanted to do it there and then but cause of a wedding dinner, I decided against it.
Then decided, "Ok… Monday shall be it!" That’s about the earliest cause can’t take MC on Sat due to work.
However, because of the cleaning that was done, it start to hurt me real bad.
Ms Dentist told me that before the cleaning, it was like a dormant volcano.
After the cleaning, it has erupted.
Thanks for the Geography lesson! Haha!

I had a good time with the dentist actually.
Before that, I had a HARD time trying to stop the butterflies from flitting around in my stomach actually.
And I almost took up whatever courage that I have left to go through the pain of the two jabs.
Well, when I went in, I was greeted with a very young and friendly dentist.
Initially, I do doubt her capabilities… But then, my teeth is in her hands..
I have to exercise faith…!

Ms Dentist did a real good job in warming me up…
And we chatted for quite some time…
As we chatted, we found out that we both love God and we both love kids and are serving in the children’s church…
Hmmm…. The two jabs were real pain honestly. I could feel my muscles tensing and unknowingly, tears just trickle. Must have hit the Pain Nerve. Haha!
But I must say that her voice was really soothing.

What good I gained out of it?
Heee… Other than the wisdom tooth out, I got 10% discount too!
A real good blessing!!!
And the rest of the day, I had a bloody mouth and a shortage of wisdom!!Haha!
The joke came about from my colleague who said that when my wisdom tooth is out, I will be in lack of wisdom.
And my friend added on cause that day, I just seemed SO blur!
I can’t remember what I was saying and I forgot where I am going!?Is it lack of wisdom or is it just plain sotong?

Nonetheless, I rested well on Sat to be ready for Sunday HopeKids Live!
Gosh…It’s been 3 weeks that I wasn’t on duty and I do really miss those kids.
I was so amazed by HT who did a wonderful puppet show to introduce the host!
What really spoke to me was the simple word F.A.I.T.H.
Remember I was doubtful if the dentist could do a good job on my teeth?
Well, how would I know if I hadn’t let her touch my teeth?
Likewise, the message to the kids was "How would they know that the Incredibles VCD is REALLY Incredibles? Just because the label says so?"
Also "How would you know that this plane ticket will bring us to HongKong? Just because the plane ticket tells us so?"

Faith is about believing in something you do not see!
Wow! Simple truth yet SO powerful!!!
During the praise and worship session, I found myself really enjoying it.
The kids have GREAT capabilities worshipping God!
Oh man!When they sang "Give thanks", my heart melted!
They sang it so so so sooooooo beautifully…
Wished I had a video cam to record it down… :)
At the end, Ps Dinah encouraged all kids and teachers alike to clean up our bad habits.
Interestingly, when I went for the 2nd service, Pastor Ben spoke about washing up.
I didn’t stay throughout but what I caught was "San, is there anything you need to wash up?"

Yup yup yuP!
Is there anything I need to wash up?
Lots.

:)
