i'm reading a book that i think i should've picked up a long time ago. but then of course it's never too late. To kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. Lives up to it's reputation and outdoes so many others for sheer simplicity of thought and yet such a powerful satire of our outlook and perspective on life as humans. Amazingly heartwarming, probably the best feature of it is the fact that Lee has managed to capture life and growing up in such a way that never once seems remotely monotonous but rather the beautiful gift of learning and maturing that God has given us. oddly the main character of the story, jean louise finch.. or scout.. this super cute little girl reminds me of someone i know. hehe.. so yeah. all in all, a solid read!!

Anyways, saturday night was mabel's concert. the whole bunch of us.. umm let's see.. RUTH, tab, sheryl chong, brian, nicole, jan, and sarah and pastor chris and family went to support mae who was doing her final performance with the MPYO for this semester. As far as the music was concerned i ws pretty disappointed with the winds last night but could tell that the poor guys were tired out.. they were just not there. but still i'm so proud of you mabel though!!! you did so well.. :) here's some pics..

MUST put the one of ruth first.. hehe..
here's the STAR of the evening.. our violinist doink.. heheh.. ;p check out tab in the background
and nicole.. :)

anyways as for amazing RACE.. it was awesome.. if not for the fact that BARRY.. yes BARRY... i hope you're reading this.. gave our team the wrong route number which sent us all over the place.. which really didn't matter cos we still had fun.. minus the getting wet and the enormous bruise on my left knee (julia you wait!! "mind my step ehh.. "). but a big thank you to all the organisers and we appreciate your hard work.. :)
