'Curiosity kills the cat' they say. And I'm an ENORMOUS one.
It's been a while since I seriously blog. And this blog I must write.
Just did something which is out of my comfort zone and normal practice.
Woke up at 10 this morning and started getting ready for an appointment which I agreed to last night. I agreed to attend a CHC service and Easter Drama event. An invitation from non other but my 'Bro', J.
I think I mentioned in one of my previous blog that I embrace all religion. I even attended a christian kindergarten when I was young, say the daily morning prayer at the beginning of every school day, sang kiddy christian songs like 'Jesus Loves Me Yes I Know' (and it's still my favourite.) amidst all the rhymes. I was learning Speech and Drama under a dear Sister, Sister Josephine, for years after that and recite prayers on a weekly basis.
However, I just don't like CH. They came across as very materialist. (No offence to the believers.) And It appears to be a very dark group when I was in Secondary school. Little did I expect that my dearest 'Bro' would be eventually be one of them as well. But well, life is always full of surprises.
My first actual encounter with CH is on my 'Bro's' wedding. It was the first church wedding I had attended and I knew I had to for him. CH came across as very modern and all the followers really look very 'Atas'. That further reminded me of the 'material' factor. But their songs are very 'hip' and sounded more like a pop song than a prayer.

And so I went. Because and because I had made my promise and I'm a Big Enormous Cat who just can't wait to get killed. I'm just so curious about what happens at the actual service and so I went.
The drama was good and the stage setting and probs were impressive. An for a normal Mass, it looks more like a rock concert with all the rainbow lightings and seats setting. I guess I'm 99% correct at the purpose of the whole believe. First time I see a service so fanciful. And they actually have an envelope for donations on every seat and the pastor actually reminded the people at the service about it. But I hope the contribution really goes forth to the needies and not just another NKF.
They sang the nice songs and I have to say the lead singers really have great voices. Their teaching is also quite positive and convincing. It's all about forgiving. Take away the Christianity parts of it and it's just like a Buddhist teaching which my mum always tells me about. Inspiring. The drama satisfied my curiosity about how Easter day came about in detail. And this cat remains unscathed.
And I managed to spend 1 full day with J and his wife. We even went to watch Horton.
Horton is a must watch. It's really cute and funny. And I totaly fell in love with Katie! A small cute yellow fluff.
In my world, Everyone is a pony. They eat rainbows and poop butterflies!
