After evening service at Acts Church on Sunday, a huge bunch of us went decided to throw Charlene a farewell dinner. Yeah, it’s another one cause most of the people present that night didn’t join in on the 1st one.
and so, we all went to...
-

the place looked so cun! and because we were sure that a LOT of us would be coming, we decided to get the 'special' platform place, enough to fit around 40-45 ppl
-
it even had its own shoe compartments!
-Kensing doing a great job telling us abt the various sets of food available!

"PRAY! Charlene, pray!
Charlene, "okok, let's pray! everyone *fluttering her hands* close ur eyes"
*some of us starts gigling at the statement*
Charlene, "Lord, i wanna thank you for this day, this farewell dinner you have prepared for us. i wanna pray for the food that you may bless it. i wanna thank you for bringing everyone here safely, i pray that uhhh... uhhhh... umm... i pray that... ummmm.... ummmm.... that... uhh... ummmm"

haha! my table kept asking for more and more egg rolls and anchovies!
we love them stuff! they even ran out and we had to wait a while for them to come lol!
momo 'shoots' Dorin, "NO NO NO! u CAN'T have the last piece of egg roll or u'll be as heavy as the church pulpit!"
