Hello God, its me Charlene.

Have you ever had that feeling like you needed to talk to someone, so you pick up the phone, but you pause and think... who should I call? You look through your phonebook and you realised that you have quite a few friends, but none of which you actually call and just talk on the phone. In the end, you just chuck your phone aside because you just don't really have anyone to call?

That happened to me just now. I'm the kind of person that hates to trouble people. Talking about my troubles is troubling people. So even though I have friends I can talk to, I don't want to talk to them about my troubles. Its just troublesome and depressing. I can't remember when was the last time I called my friend and told them that something is bothering me.

Its times like these that I really appreciate that God is always there to hear everything that's bothering me. It would be horrid if I didn't have Him to share my burdens with.

My BBQ

Wei quan is the sweetest boyfriend ever!

Last saturday, I asked WQ if he wanted to meet the next evening. I told him I didn't want to stay at home and suggested we have a BBQ. It was a off the cuff thing so I wasn't really expecting it to happen. Sunday afternoon at 4.30, he calls me and asks if I was serious about the BBQ. I asked him to decide and he said sure!

So at 6.30pm I went over to his house. Apperently he got everything prepared within 1 hour!! When I reached, he was ready to go. We packed and went to the sembawang dam near his house. He set up this make shift BBQ and because of his fab scouts skills, he built a kick ass fire. As I was unpacking the stuff, i realised... we didn't have a thong for the charcol, we didn't have extra plates for the food.... AND here's the best one... we didn't have ANY utensils except a butter knife! Yes, no fork, no spoons, no satay stick! haha.. we ended up using the knife for everything! haha.. it was really funny!

It was such a lovely evening. I had such a wonderful time! He makes me so happy. Jealous not? hehehe...

The hardcore scout building that kick ass fire. He had to keep sprinkling water on it because it was too strong.

Our one and only utensil, the butter knife.
