Ecclesiastes 3:11

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

My Wonderful Christmas

"Have a holly jolly Christmas

It's the best time of the year

Well I don't know if there'll be snow

But have a cup of cheer"

Merry Christmas everybody!!!!

Happiest month of the year, everybody is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. Family gather together with joy and laughter. Happy!

This year I spent my Christmas eve at IFGF Arcadia Church. I missed to attend church on Christmas eve before, so here I am at the church for Christmas this year... Love the atmosphere, the decorations and warm greetings. Lots better than my last year Christmas eve's dinner in Miami. Huh..I had to spend $30 for 3 little shrimps... -.-"

We started with praise and worship, short n powerful sermon delivered by Pst. Danny. Then there are performances. Luve it!

:: Song Skid from the youth... "What faith can do" ::

After the service, we had fellowship and dinner. We were trying to plan for tomorrow. There'll be no restaurant open on Christmas day and nothing to do here in LA. So after long discussion til 2 am, we decided to go to Seaworld! yay! I love Seaworld. I love fish. I love Shamu~

December 25th, 2010 - 7 am. 5 people in a car with gloomy weather heading San Diego. My friend drove pretty fast that we get to San Diego in like 1 hour n half.

Our 1st stop is the USS Midway Navy Museum. Well, we only take pictures with the statue "Unconditional Surrender". A 25-foot, 6,000 pound statue by world-renowned artist J. Seward Johnson commemorating a famous World War II. Unconditional Surrender is a three-dimensional interpretation of a photo taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt of a Sailor kissing a nurse in Times Square, New York City on Aug. 14, 1945, following the announcement of V-J Day. Check out the links for more info.

Seaworld close earlier on Christmas Day. So we have a packed schedule of show to watch. We watched all the shows, of course started from Shamu "Believe", Pets Rule Christmas Special, Blue Horizon, Sea Lion Live Christmas Special and Shamu's Christmas.

6 pm the crowd started to walk to the exit. We drove back to LA and on the half way, rain started to drop...Thank God it's not raining while we were in the Seaworld. Another high speed ride to LA~

On this Christmas weekend, we were also celebrating one of our friend's baby 1 month old. Her name is Zoe, which means life. Lovely baby~

Simi Valley is a very nice small city, view of hills, no traffic, very clean, just like u own a holiday villa if you live there. Still full from the lunch, we have to drive to Arcadia for the next party which is an early christmas party at our Senior Pastor's house. Very nice decorated house, full of Christmas ornaments, candies, chocolates, pretzels, cookies and many more... Sugar high time..haahaha...

After the yummy dinner, we had xmas quiz...oh gosh, got only 6 correct answers out of 25 christmas questions. That's bad...But it's ok, anyway now I know d exact story when Jesus came to this earth.

Move on to the last stop of the nite, it was a company party of my friend. It's an entertainment company which deals with Top chef, Project Runway, etc. The party was held in the owner's residence in Hollywood. The house isn't that big but can hold to almost 500 people in it... Free flow finger foods, sushi and drinks. That was my 1st time have raw sushi, it's a salmon roll. I don't eat raw before,but few days ago somehow I wanna try it and here I saw sushi in the party... So I gave it a try. Oh gosh....it's so chewy and juicy!!! Will try more sashimi from now on...hahahaha...
