Fast or Feast???

Now now, before I make way for the fluffy clouds in my dreams, I have to blog about today.
As of today (yes... a little late now, but as of FRIDAY) I'll be taking part with an NTU's Crusader's event - ENGAGE!

So for the next 2 weeks, we will be fasting (there are diff. types of fasts). I chose the 'one-meal' fast and the lifestyle fast (no TV).
As it goes in the booklet, Engage is about:
"to disengage with the activities and distractions of the world, and to engage with the LORD!"

Truth be told, it would be my first time fasting and devoting myself to the Lord. I really pray hard that my devotion will grow even stronger after the two weeks of fasting. I need to get back on track with my Saviour! Gwyn mentioned that it will be tough since the devil will be tempting me. But with Christian brothers and sisters as supporters, I know I can make it through!

But one funny thing happened earlier today. Apparently we had a feast at noon time. Lunch was so filling, and still we had tea and 'takopachi' balls after that. It hit the high-point when I realized I was munching through till 6.30pm and I was like "oops! Cannot eat already!"

All in all, despite the near miss of fasting, I had a great time with Gwyn. Here's what we did for today:
1. Met at 2.15pm and ate Korean food: I had Bibimpap... YUM YUM
2. Ard 2.45pm we had dessert: SO FULL!
2. Went walking around, stopped by Daiso: deadliest place for trying to refuse snacking urges
3. Pet Safari: Saw a freshly-groomed dog pee on itself again... haiyah...
4. Went to Kopitiam for tea: and the 'poison' to calorie counting from Daiso - Takopachi balls, glistening with oil
5. 6.30: Realization of dinner time and quit eating and start fasting!

Hai.. I knew I made a little boo-boo with the timing and fasting, but I was glad that God answered my prayers by allowing me a heartfelt time with a long-time friend.
