Time of Post: London- 7.20pm
Singapore- 3.20am

Yea... It's Christmas in London.
Well, doesn't really have the christmas mood here. Well, not the area of my hotel.
Today is officially the longest Christmas I have.
9 hrs in Singapore + 13.5 hrs in flight + 9.5 hrs in London = 32 hrs of Christmas!

Singapore Airline Flight 308 took off from Changi Airport at 9am(Singapore Time)...
Reach London 2.36pm(London Time)...
Because its Christmas Day, all public transportation including the Tube(London's MRT) and buses, all shut down. So got a cab.
Reach our hotel, Lord Jim Hotel (only 2 stars... sianz), at around 4pm...
At around 4.30pm... London is dark already! and cold
Cab ride to Hotel

It's dark already!


Our rooms are super small and kind of lousy. But still quite cosy.
After check-in. We went to walk-walk.
We wanted to see a Singapore restaurant called Bugis Street at Glouceister Road.
So we asked for directions and headed there. It was about a 1.2 km walk.
We were disappointed to find it close. Oh well, another day then.
Then went to eat Fish & Chips for dinner except for Ah-Ma who ate Chicken Burger instead because she hates Cod Fish.
After, went back to hotel.

Tomorrow we gonna meet my bro, Benjamin, then see changing of guards at Buckingham Palace.
Tired now, gonna sleep.
Nitez... Chocolate Dreamz... zZz...

Here are photos I took today!:

Christmas Prezzies
This year I gave 23 christmas prezzies!
I think it was less than last year.
Sorry to those I never give, especially those who gave me.


This year recieve many prezzies from many people.
Got the usual candies, haha-Thats what I always give to people.
Then got 2 pairs of Socks, One from Loke Peen, the other I forgot liaoz. Both Espirit brand.
Got a head phone recoiler from Michelle.
A cool stylish Unbrella from Chee Kong and Sherry
Then my favourite prezzie of all!!!-
The Fruit and Vegetables Chips from Pang!!!
Lolz, very long never eat liaoz... So so happy to have the joy of eating this again... Wahaha

Thanks for all the Prezzies.

Then Shauna gave me this "whistling" Chinese instrument that she bought from Shanghai.

F.Y.I. Yes, the thing on the right is the instrument!

It came with the instruction guide but obviously I still don't know how to play it.
And since its an chinese instrument, I don't really care whether I know how to play it.
Wahaha!!! Sorry :(
Shauna, hope you like the prezzie I gave you.

London Trip

Ever wonder what Percussionists do before going on stage.
We were the last band so we had to wait from like 7pm(after dinner) to 8.30pm?
Thats long, so we came up with this. Well, only Me, Xing Yao and Arifah... Haha


Wahaha

What a great song!!!
What a sad story :(

The Christmas Shoe
It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran outI knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me just what Christmas is all about

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Yoz.... Very tired liaoz...
so gonna describe today's (or rather yesterday's) Band Tune-in in few short lines.

Band tune-in was fun!
But only 5 sec 4s came, of whom 3 are our DSA(Direct School Admission) students
Haha, but later got 3 appeal students came and 2 of them sat down with us too for band tune-in.
Dr Lee, our conductor, didn't come today, I think he thought pointless to come with so few came for tune-in, which I can agree with him.
But we really had fun with the sec 4s, I hope they too, and think really bonded with them.
And guess what, Louis didn't came <------ Wahaha!!!

Finally, Sunday can get a chance to play the new DW drumset in the Promise. *Drooling*

FYI, yeah... I'm going holiday this year.
To London with Dad, Mom, and Grandma. Going there visit bro.
My holiday from 25dec- 2Jan... Hope got internet connection there...

Yea Man!
Casting Crown was great last sunday.
Played the songs Lifesong and Praise You In This Storm and also Who Am I during the altar call.
Pastor Mark Hall preaching was good too. Loved the way he uses actions which he asked we'll to do to bring the word across. It's a good way to help us remember what he has preached.

Can't wait for their concert this Thursday and Friday!
