choir anniversay

the angelus choir 25th anniversary

lost

been thinking to take a break from project j for a while or so... i guess its the age that is catching up with me and i don't feel right into it lately. its seems like i have nothing much to contribute and i no longer have to drive for anything anymore. guess i need to find myself again...

the angelus choir

here's something i wrote on 15 aug 2005 with regards to angelus choir anniversary...

"today marks the 23rd anniversary of the angelus choir. founded in 1982 by the late Fr Fortier, the choir comprised cousins, two sisters and friends, if memory serves me right. william joined in '86, and myself in '87, the same year as tony and aaron. the same people who practically dragged me to joined the choir and so i did at the age of 18. the choir was like 30 strong singing our lungs out at the old church at sembawang. the half-pass-six choir we were called and practises were very much the same as now. we started at 4pm, had mass at 6.30pm (hence the name, the ½ pass six choir) n continued prac till as late as 10pm. we had no mics and of course, there wasn't aircon at all. we had a small choir loft on the second floor of the church but for a very short time, the rest of time of my years there, we were upfront facing the altar. we had to battle mosquitoes and all kind of insects who intruded our practises. getting mosquitoes bites everytime was the norm, until we decided to close all the windows and leave the side door open only. christmas was like the thing we look forward every year. there was one year that i bet all of us will remember for a very long time, it was after mass and everybody was like hugging each other at the church porch. then the girls were happily hugging everybody until they realised that they were also hugging some foreign workers who decided to get into action, it was so funny. the girls freaked out and hit behind some of the choir guys. there was this other time when i wasnt in the choir yet but my sis was. i saw william outside my door step with a baseball bat with my sis. apparently someone was following my sis, and she called william who came down with a baseball bat and william called gerard who also came down with a baseball bat. at that time, i didnt really knew the both yet, but looking back now, its a good laugh.


the choir shifted to yishun in '92, reduced to ten to fifteen people and through the years the numbers declined slowly. mass was at six-ten pm, hence we were without a proper name for a year or so. at one point we had only five to seven people. we actually did a wedding mass accapella once with the help of Fr J.J. (he was a brother back then). without having a name, we had no identity so maria and cynthia approached Fr. Fortier and he chose 'The Angelus'. Hence, the angelus was born. the choir was back in full swing again when hatsuee, anne marie, sarah n joanne joined us in 95; mel, mark, jeremy and others joined soon after. and the rest like the say is history. i've been in the choir now for 18 years and its been a hell of a ride. i have learnt a lot of things and gained loads of friends. at the same time, this is where i learnt to be a soundman, thanks to david who showed me the ropes and got me interested. who in turn i taught melvin and mark. mel helps out whenever and mark have left the choir and current he is a soundman for some joint now. so all the best to him. i have a young padawan now n she is catching up fast; and she is none other than david niece's pat! kinda cool isn't it, how things come around.


well, the choir has lots of history behind it, we have a priest, a nun, a ceo and lots more. all of them at one point were like teenagers in this choir. my eldest sis, the nun, is in london. leon came back to singapore recently to celebrate his first mass as a priest but i am not sure where he is now. and the ceo is none other than the guy with the baseball bat, william. hahahaha...funny how things come around yeah! to everyone from the angelus past and present, love you guys lots. "

Case of the baby who announced return of Christ

Case of the baby who announced return of Christ

Jesus is coming back!

Dear All,

Just got this touching and uplifting mail. It is a must read.
Remain blessed.



In the public hospital of Itaguaí (RJ) last weekend
was born a girl with hands joined together, like one
who's praying.

The doctors told the parents that they would operate
the hands of that girl, and that they would give her
antistatic. The operation was easy because it seemed
like the hands were simply glued together one membrane (skin) layer apart.

When they opened up the hand of that child, you can't
imagine what was written...

JESUS IS COMING BACK... The doctors started weeping and all that were in the hospital.

The suburb of Itaguaí is undergoing a movement
now, People that have withdrawn from church are going back and others are receiving Jesus Christ as the only
savior.
God sent that child simply to convey that message.
After a few hours she died: JESUS IS COMING
BACK

I have received now I'm passing on!!!

The Lord of Lords is coming back.
"Seek you the LORD while HE may be found, call you
upon Him while He is near:" Isaiah 55:6

Beryl's son

Introducing my grand nephew, Anthony Christopher Bells, born on 10 July 2007. This pic was taken when he was two days old. He would be my late fathers' late brother's great-grand-child. The mother of the child, Beryl (my niece or 2nd cousin) lives in Queens, New York and hopefully i would be able to travel down to see all of them again!!

mental block

realised that i do not blog as much as i used to in 2005 or club as much as i use to. guess in 2005, i had so much time on my hand and life was a lot more simpler. but now everything is moving so fast that i find myself losing track of time. its 2007 and i've realised that i've been bloggin' abt two years but its always the same shit, diff day. i guess i have lost my flare for bloggin where the my mind wld just flow faster that i could type. now i have a mental block.. not sure what to write next... so i'll be back to my norm self again and keep ya entertained!

2nd anniversary

it's been two years since i've known the gal but things have changed. she's now attached and i'm still coming into terms with it. she wanted us to meet up ytd but i declined.. don't think i'm ready to meet her bf yet. yea, it does hurt knowing that i'm not always on her mind like i use to be.. or so i think. the calls and sms has been infrequent and the feelings are slowly dying... hopefully one day, i'll forget her n she'll do the same.

well, happy 2nd 'anniversary' to us!!

on a brighter note, issac & belle are getting married!!

The Bottom Line
Someone's act of altruism will inspire you to follow in their footsteps today.

In Detail
Someone's act of altruism will inspire you to follow in their footsteps today. It might be a simple gesture, like someone holding a door for you -- or it might be a major gift, like a stranger in the car ahead of you who pays for your toll. Nevertheless, the unnecessary kindness someone shows you will not go unnoticed by you. Appreciate the special effort, no matter how small it was, and tell yourself how easy it is to be a little bit kinder yourself
