favored first few days back home.

Yoz..
Went back home to Indo 2 days ago and still adjusting myself to the pollution, traffic, and definitely the LIFESTYLE. This is really freaky. The first time I met the people in school, they were like talking about this "blood-type diet"!! And it was reinforced by my mom that everything that I eat MUST be beneficial to my body. Like, she had this book that has every food listed out according to the blood types. Mine is type B, and shockingly ... I can't eat CHICKEN!! *sniffets*

Gosh! And yeahh.. all the PKs (principals' kids), including my brothers are all on this diet program. And yaaa.. I went to Bakmi Gajah Mada on the first day in Indo, and my mom ordered me a plain noodle. I was like, "Mom! Plain noodle is for Stesha and Justin!" I mean, hey, c'mon! Plain noodle is like ... only the NOODLES! No chicken, no veggies! I was quite shocked coz they're all INTO this diet thing! Oh well, I guess I'm coping up with them.

Today, after 3 months of not being in MSI church, I finally got to sing GOSPEL songs!!! Woohoo!!! 3 services and it's quite tiring, but exciting, esp. with that "Not Forgotten" song ... (Egyptian dance). =P
And for dinner, the PKs gathered again at Tony Roma's. And SHUCKS .. No baby backs for us girls. No porks. Good thing they have a new menu: Lamb Chop!
Which is very beneficial for us blood type B people! All the O's kept on eating those baby backs, which was definitely NOT beneficial for any blood types! Haha! They're breaking the rules, for now. =P
We chatted, laughed, joked, being insane again for 3 hours in Tony Roma's, then we all went to Senayan City coz Dabenhams had a midnight sale. We checked out stuff there and the moment we stepped in the store, it's MADNESS! The queue was like a total DISASTER! Line up for an hour?! Gawd! So we decided to forget about shopping there, besides, the price ain't chipping down.

First thing first when I landed, I'm already scheduled to play on the keys for services and MSA devotions, and stuff like singing here and there, help for the Christmas banquet, and WOoHoo! Jam-packed events coming up! So happy! =D

Here's one interesting thing that happened to me today. One of my mom's old friends called me.
Her: Hey Angel! It's very hard to reach you ya.
Me: Ow! Really? Whassup, tante?
Her: Ya. Tante wants to ask you, coz tante now is helping Oom Steven "Warna" finding a pretty girl for his music video. And tante was thinking if you want to be in the video?
Me: Oh wow! Really? When is the shooting?
Her: It's actually tomorrow at 3 pm near Bogor.
Me: Oh! 3 pm? Yikes ... I have to play keys at PriMe service tomorrow at 6 pm.
Her: Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh..
Me: Yaaa! So sorry!!!! I really wish to do it, but ...
Her: Well, it's okay ... next time.. there's still a next time.
Me: Yaa! So sorry yaa, tante! But thank you.

I was really sad, you know.. I mean, it is a once in a lifetime thing! But, I already committed myself to help in PriMe service, playing the keys for their Christmas service. After that call, I consulted my parents. I cried, really. Coz ... of course, that's every girl's dream, to become a "someone". But I really strongly felt that God wants to test where my heart is. Just like the sermon today. Abraham was tested, but by FAITH he did God's will. God's testing Abraham's heart. And because he did what pleases God, he was blessed! So, I was in a position like that just now. But then, I told God that it's fine if I didn't get the chance to be in that music video, I know by serving Him tomorrow, that's where my heart is. It's better to serve than to be self-centered. I'm sure God'll not stop there. I feel that God has the best in store for me. He's gonna bless me more and His favor upon me will be just like my forefathers. Hey, life's about FAVOR! I'm more than blessed, I'm favored! I believe that this year, my Christmas miracle is going to be greater than what I've ever imagined, apart from having my Jesus born. It's going to be a life-changing experience. I love my cool God! ;)
