Happy Birthday Jesus!
and Merry Christmas Everyone! =)

I feel so blessed today because God gave me an amazing christmas present in addition to his Son, Jesus.

I met sharon today for a christmas date. We wanted to avoid the crowd so we didn't go to town but went to railway mall instead. We had lunch at this place Ramen Ramen where the food and service was pretty good, walked around there and after that we headed to Beauty World plaza. The day was going well, we were planning to go to sharon's friend's condo for swimming/tennis when I realised that I couldn't find my phone and began frantically searching my bag to see it wasn't a mistake.

oh gosh! It was really gone. I felt my mind go blank and in shock, suddenly i questioned myself why I didn't feel weird that my hands were empty. Sharon tried calling my phone to see if it was with me and I had put my hp in silent but couldn't feel any vibration. Panic. Searching my bag again and again but still couldn't find it. Tried to remember where I last touched my HP but couldn't rem when. I prayed for God to help me.

We retraced our steps, going back to the shops we went to previously. Nothing. So, its either at railway mall or I dropped it on the bus we took from railway to beautyworld.
Called chen to help check the smrt lost and found number but when we called, being christmas, the lines were closed. We went back to railway mall and retraced our steps too but nothing.
Sharon kept calling my phone to see if anyone would pick up and I think it was a good sign that the phone kept ringing. It probably meant no one had picked it yet. At this point, I was starting to recall the last time I saw my phone and I rem that I had it on the bus with me and after I alighted my hands were empty. 80% sure I left it on the bus. So, we took the same bus to the terminal which was at Yishun.

there, when Sharon tried calling my phone again, she got cut off. At that time, I was losing hope already, if I really left it on the bus, if it was on the seat, someone would have taken it. If it dropped on the floor, I'm sure ppl can hear it moving when the bus move. Just when I was starting to believe I would never see my phone again and freaking out, Sharon got a call back.
And it was the bus driver! telling us to pick my phone at Yishun bus interchange.
I was Stunned, 'ban xing ban yi' and wanting the bus to go faster and reach asap.
Reached, and went straight to the office. I was expecting to see my pink hp pouch but it was wrapped in paper, so I couldn't make sure. Then the person took it out and I was like Thank God! It really is my phone and its not gone.

The personnel had to make sure it really was my phone. Used the office phone to call my phone and of course check passed because its really mine. I felt so thankful when I felt the phone in my hands. We asked the person how they got the phone and surprisingly, no one picked it up, the bus driver found it.

God truly does answer prayers and I feel i deserve this lesson because I've been getting too forgetful and careless lately. I love my phone! so glad to have it back. It seems like a bad dream when I think of it now.
I'm so thankful too for Sharon, my hao jie mei for comforting me and all her efforts in helping me.
BLESSED! Thank You God for today.
