I get there at like 10ish and pick a no. (2028) and they are like serving no. 2016 and i swear that place has like one, at most two people working there, THEY ARE SO SO SO SO SO SLOW! and the instructions are NO EXISTANT! like people take a no. Go in and see the people and then come out again in like 3 mins and the people tell them to take a form and fill it out, in that time another person comes in and does the same thing, THUS HOLDING UP THE LINE! so in effect it takes 15-20 mins per person( they could be so much more efficient, they are the police after all!) Anyway its like been 3 people and i have already finished watching the episode of america's funniest home videos on the little TV set they have in the place to keep people entertained and am now watching Golden Girls, when i realise ,after observing the people walk in and out of the SMALL OFFICE, that i should perhaps fill up the form first, so i take the paper and read it and... SHOOT ME! i didn't bring passport photos or my passport so i effectively went there to watch tv...SHEESH! haha And now i have to go back there tmr and wake up even earlier tmr in an attempt to miss the crowd! Sigh i guess its a lesson learnt!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that whole annoying incident, i went to pick up iain and we went to pick up my sis at Laselle(she's teaching there) and then to cathay Billy Bombers to eat YAY! nice food, after which we droped my sis back at Laselle and then headed off to Ikea to do some shopping, i like ikea its fun there, came home with iain and played with ginger and brie(so cute!) Yup i guess thats about it&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ciao for now!&lt;br /&gt;ooxxoOxXOo! (NACHOOOOOO!)hahahahhahaha&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6724848-117017078684619055?l=melindameansgratitude.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6724848/posts/default/117017078684619055'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6724848/posts/default/117017078684619055'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://melindameansgratitude.blogspot.com/2007_01_30_archive.html#117017078684619055' title=''/><author><name>min</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13070989732262670594</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6724848.post-116893693300363179</id><published>2007-01-16T16:26:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2007-01-16T16:42:13.016+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>i swear this is the last one!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/2667/378/1600/274236/DSC01201.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block;

I think i can safely say this for every ex-SC girl: getting together with SC people really makes you feel darn nostalgic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gosh i really miss SC i knew i would miss it but really not this much, there are so many things i miss:&lt;br /&gt;1) The being around with just girls-ok guys are fun and all but sometimes they really deserve to be BASHED!!! *WHACK*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) The company of really good friends without having anything interfereing with a good-ole friendship!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) The conversations in an all girls school, all that crap we talked about that really can't be said in a co-ed system ahha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) The teachers, ok so i admit being in the system and all sometimes we get irritated with our teachers, but at the end of the day i still miss them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) The carefreeness of the secondary school days. Although during that time they didn't seem that carefree, they do now, so that is what counts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) CHOIR! oh my gosh i seriously miss choir, the singing and the performing...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well i think thats it for now but i have a feeling that in years from now i'll have a much LONGER list of things i miss. I suppose this is all part of growing up haha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To my DG people and SC choir people: Thanks for making everything so memoriable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly i leave you with is thought:&lt;br /&gt;you never really know what you miss till its gone.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6724848-113241540354232904?l=melindameansgratitude.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6724848/posts/default/113241540354232904'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6724848/posts/default/113241540354232904'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://melindameansgratitude.blogspot.com/2005_11_19_archive.html#113241540354232904' title=''/><author><name>min</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13070989732262670594</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6724848.post-113172513524191808</id><published>2005-11-11T23:56:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2005-11-12T00:05:35.253+08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2667/378/1600/PICT0012.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2667/378/320/PICT0012.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;                          Being dumb in GP got bored...Sugi muct die!

I mean the Lord did all this for me..and YOU! he loved us soooo much...his love is uncountable, unmeasurable, unimaginable! On good friday Jesus Christ was nailed on the cross for us, he took all our sins of the world upon himself! B4 he was nailed to the cross he was lashed 39 times... the capitol punishment was 40 times... the whip was strips of leather with metal pieces at the end, so each time he was whipped the metal piece would cut and pull out his fles...i noe this is a gorey pic i am painting but its the truth...passion  means suffering, Jesus suffered for us... Who killed him? WE DID! he died...attoned for OUR sins! I am in awe of how much he loves us! LOVE IS NOT JUST A WORD... it comes attached, we may go around saying I love u! but u don't fully noe wat love is until u haf experienced the Great love of Our Lord jesus Christ... I love him with all my heart and am extremely grateful for what he did on the cross for me! My parents named me Melinda, they want ed me to be grateful for what i have... i was never really a grateful person until i re-dedicated my life to the Lord now i'm born again and i understand now to a much grater extent gratitude!
