Entry: Lourdes! 2005.07.11



So me is back from France. It was fun ^_____^

We woke up at 5am on Friday morning (actually I woke up at 4) and went to the airport at 6.30am.. Took us an hour to reach there, but my sis booked the taxi wrongly so we had hours to spare XP Oh well, better early than late!

The first day was fine.. It was an hour and a half's flight to Lourdes, and it was quite a nice flight cos the plane was only half full and there was no fixed seating, so we could sit window seat >=3 Nyehehehe... It's nice to see the Grotto where St. Bernadette saw the Immaculate Conception! (if you don't understand, msg me on MSN and I'd be happy to evangelise to you :P) It's so pretty.....

All the days were pretty much the same... shopping, mass, shopping, collecting the spring water, shopping, drinking the water, lighting candles, praying, eating, taking 5 hour naps... XP But it was fun!!! Hehehe... we also did a Stations of the Cross there and it was SO beautiful! They did the statues properly, even right down to the expressions on Jesus's face!! And at the 14th Station, they even had a small cave to symbolise the tomb... And at the 15th Station, they even had a large round stone carved!!! Very very pretty..

Last night, we went for the torchlit procession too... It was nice! It was basically a procession where they carry a large statue of the Virgin Mary and we follow the procession while praying the Rosary and holding a lit candle and singing 'Ave ave ave Maria' once in a while XD *has the song stuck in head*

Today, we flew back and everything's been ok... There was a rumor about a bomb behind the house just now... Apparently, there was a parked taxi there and someone called the police to say there was a bomb in it.. o_O so the police went there to check on it.... ^^;; and just so happens that all the windows in the house face that side... Hahahaha.... o_o *miao*

I just had a riot of emotions just now.. Right before I signed in.. I was reading something and almost immediately, i felt disgusted and irritated then suddenly I felt so much anger I nearly screamed at the com screen.... o_O a sure sign my period's coming! There are still alot of things I want to say but I don't want to say them here... Also I want to talk to Liss ^_____^ Long time no talk to her!!! *can't wait can't wait*

Hehee... Anyway me go first la.... Baibai....

Liss> etto.. it's ok if you cut the belt, but please don't use it.. it's one of the newest yukata... if you see any yukata I've never shown you before, please return it to my brother... Cos it's all new... Thankies..
