My Mother's Baptism Day

yeahs today went to my mothers Water Baptism ceremony
was quite a sight lol. simple yet orderly.
anyways before we go to the church we had lunch

heres the nice deal..... - i order kway chap normal set. $3.50.. -
ok i took out 10 bucks from my wallet ..
gave the auntie. she gave me back $46.50 0_0
i was like stunned... then i go back seat down.
think think think . ok return ba. no hesitation liao
was that lilltle tempted but was glad i had the moral courage to return honestly =)
the auntie also looked stunned when i returned her the extra $40..

anyways we proceeded to the church. A lot of ppl!
the ceremony v fast. my mum go into the water. about chest high.
as she proceeded. the pastor went on to say the holy words in the name of God.
there she goes~ like a new born baby.
like someone celebrating a birthday. .
like someone embraced into a new life . . .

we then went on to have dinner at Coffee Club at Funan IT Mall
had Carbonara (yes again =x) and Iced-Tiramisu-Latte
the latte was nice !!! got a bit of alchol content too. but whats alcohol? haha
it was great to have everyone around + my mums close frens.

Reflecting on today. think this is a Holy day for everyone.
My mum is sorta "reborn"and im happy for her ^^

hmmm.... and for me nehs? i think so too.
not so much in terms of christianity but rather in thinking
when temptation came, even if its a small amount, i could resist.
i could have "diam diam" all the way and kept it for myself

my first thot was : "is this a Gift or a Test from God..??"

well, its a gift as well as a test. and i passed it
but somehow or rather the decision is one i made myself - to return

And i believe my 3 sisters will be that little bit more proud of their dear Brother.
hope this enduring quality remains in me throughout and not fizzle out.
i believe an environment changes a person over time
i could be the worse possible nightmare if it was so.....
definitely, hey its Me leh! your frenly neighbourhood Sebestian~
and thats why i am definitely stronger.
