Jeremiah 17:7-8
Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
And whose hope is the LORD.
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
Which spreads out its roots by the river,
And will not fear when heat comes;
But its leaf will be green,
And will not be anxious in the year of drought,
Nor will cease from yielding fruit.

Yawns. Just reached home. Tired.
I had to help out at my boss' farewell dinner which was at Bukit Batok Civil Service Club.
Me, Victor, Terry, Zheng Yang, Steven and Jia Jin were helping out with the reception and holding area for the guests before the dinner began.
Sighs. I'm really going to miss my boss a lot. He is a great guy - a wise leader, a caring and friendly mentor, a loving husband and a protective father. How I wish he would not retire so fast. Oh wells. He certainly cared a lot for the people around him and has lots of friends all around Mindef.
The video played during the dinner was nicely done. It was quite humorous and entertaining. Heh. It even had a 20secs speech by me as my last words for my boss. Though it was a short 20secs, I sure did attract a lot of attention. Heh.
The setting - My boss' office and I was sitting on his chair.
Here's what I said - " Sir, your chair very nice to seat leh. I like it very much. *laughs* Joking only lar =D I'm just using your computer to do some work! I just want to wish you all the best in your career ... "
Hah. Hope that my New boss don't kill me tmr!
The dinner started promptly at 7.30pm and ended at 10.15pm. Thank God for Maj Lee EF aka MAMA who brought us fish and chicken burgers from KFC. She brought like 15 to 20 of those small burgers even though there were like less than 10 of us Nsfs helping out. Heh. Very typical of a mother who tends to over-provide. The dinner was held only for regulars and external guests such as HJL and AME colleagues. Think there were around 150 guests who turned out for the dinner. Thank God for Terry who stayed behind with me till the end of the dinner and sent me home. Heh.
I pray that my boss will have a great time in his new career - Vice Principal of RJC - and that God will use him greatly and mightily to impact the lives of others!
Here's a pic of me and my boss taken during our camp's anniversary dinner last year!
Too bad I couldn't catch hold of him just now to take a pic with him again. Sob ;(
Okies, time to sleep. But i think i'm a bit hungry. Heh.
Nights people!
