One cold and frosty night ( I know I everyday cold.. wish I had a hoodie..) Asher prayed as he told the Lord about all his troubles and concerns. He heard in his tiny heart that in a relationship, he should listen more. Who does not want their partner to hear and lend then a shoulder? , to talk to them and listen so that they feel better? God told Asher that very night to be still and He is always by his side. He prayed a solemn prayer, and asked graciously to wake him up in the morning to see a shooting star. As he sat down on his bed consisting of just a mattress and a wide, while floor, he heard a voice that called out his name that sent his senses feeling so mediocre that there was something so powerful and overwhelming that just the voice was enough to shake him and cause him to feel teary because he was such a small insignificant dust created to be loved by the Almighty. He closed his eyes tight and finished his prayer with an Amen and slowly slouched into slumber as the dark corners of the room began to fade and his sight became fuzzy, he soon fell to sleep.
At 4.44 am, he awoke jumping from his bed and opened the window wide and poke his head out of the window to gaze upon a sight that he once saw when he was a kid. He could point out Orions Belt and the many constellations that consisted in that night sky. Clouds shrouded the sky but he could still see shimmering starts which were so breath taking and how he missed the sight of the night sky filled with little diamonds tinkling and shimmering with hope and beauty such that none could compare. As he gazed upon the night sky, he spotted a light suddenly emerging from the dark corner of space and as it grew brighter and stronger. In a flash of a second the light split across the sky leaving a tail of light and as soon as it came, it disappeared back into space. Asher stood there still blur eyed and puzzle. He felt his sensory and receptive neurons pass information to his brain through waves into his nervous system. He could feel the little charges moving from his eyes to his brain but in slow motion and felt his brain process what he had just saw. A few moments passed by as he stared blankly into the never-ending world when he finally realized that what had just passed him was a shooting star! He quickly clasped his hands together and made a wish. A wish if granted would be so meaningful and so thankful about. Asher felt his sense sharpen and as though they were reviving from a winter’s slumber. He soon became sensitive to his surroundings and he tried twisting his head up wards so he could see if there were any more shooting stars. Being a very nice brother, he wanted to tell his sister which was just somewhere further than 1 foot. Not wanting to miss out any opportunity to spot another screeching star he saw at 4.46, he used his bolster to poke his sister and called her to wake up and see. After continuous poking, his sister got irritated a gave a loud ‘URRGHHH!’ which made Asher stop immediately and grabbed the window grill so he wouldn’t fall 14 stories to his death. He tried peeking through further but his neck was killing him. The twisting and turning to balance out the aching pain was enough to tear his shoulders. So at 5am, he had no strength left and went back to sleep.
At 7.25, Asher was abruptedly awoken by his father and was rushed because dad didn’t want Asher to be late. But Dad continuously underestimates his elder son and in 8 minutes flat, Asher was packed, clean and ready to go. He was even faster than his father who thought less of his capabilities. During primary 6, Asher had been trained to bathe no longer than 3minutes in a 5day4night camp. If 3 minutes were up, they would be all summoned to fall in regardless what they are doing. As he recalled, some ran out with a towel, some with their underwear, some were not as bright but still improvised by scrubbing their hair and using the foam to cover the sensitive parts. (HAHAHHAHA!!!) after which, we went to school and did his regular routine and received a really sweet message from his girl friend which made him motivated and even more strong willed to find her birthday present. So he spent the whole morning searching for the present. He looked at web pages from google and spent time reading every page. All 23 by 50 results were carefully examined and those that were promising, he took down to prepare to find later in the afternoon. You might think after countless searching from Malaysia, city square to raffles place, to Chinatown, to city hall, to Sembawang centre, to causeway point he would give up. But Asher was not a person who would give up so easily for someone he cares so much. He searched relentlessly look up sites and even finding blog shops and E-Bay to find the present. After much research and digging he found a place, Chinatown square. He quickly opened 3 tabs and inserted the addresses in each tab. He looked through the pages to check if it was credible. On the first page it was shown the shops and retail tenants in Chinatown point. The second page showed the merchandise and some other interesting things and on the third one, it depicted where It was and when it was last updated as well as a contact us note. He quickly took snapshots of what he wanted and sent them an email to enquire and to advise on his visit later that afternoon. He jot down notes and downloaded the site map into his phone for reference and went on to study Micro cell biology. It wasn’t so hard but there were a few fumbles here and there.
Straight after school, he skillfully and hastily packed his things and darted out of the class and charged down the stair case. Using his ultra super powers, he stretched his long legs and began striding to causeway point. While walking down the long ramp, he felt rain drops and prayed that God would hold the rain just abit more till he reached causeway point. Striding on the field, he felt strong heavy rain drops beating on his back but still his front remained dry. It was as though he could skip in front and the rain would not affect him. Still undeterred he went on to text jh on his arrival about 4.30. they agreed t meet at raffles but somewhere at raffles place asher decided to change the venue to Chinatown as it was pouring. ( where ever I go the rain will follow -_- ) we walked around the place just to find that Chinatown point was just up the escalator and proceeded to find the shop #02-09. We felt so unsure about what to expect and if the store had been abolished. This is getting boring…. Wadever :DDD

Found a lot of interesting things like naruto and stuff..it was cool to find some interesting crap but the best was I found the wallet :D . the personel was very nice and gave a lot of nice suggestions and something caught my eye ;) . then we bought what we had to spending a part of my hong kong trip which I willingly forsaken for this event.
