finally i attended Sunday service after i arrived.
Thanks Terence and Eli's info. But seems those church are not near to my living place or working place. i tried to searched from the internet.... found a Church called International City Church at Fortitude Valley. I think it should be near to my working place, so that i can attend the service then go to work after that.
but just like what i mentioned yesterday, the buses are not as convience as HK.... the first 204 bus started at 8:21am... but it takes time to get there.... should be later than 9am... and i still don't know how to get there after i got off the bus.
i tried to ask the bus driver, but he got no idea too... he juz could tell me where's that street and should be go which way.... u know, Ann Street is a super long street.... 977, Ann street..... normally it takes abt 10 mins to get there..... but since i don't know where it is.... so i kept on walking walking walking..... asked somebody else, but she's got no idea too.... saw a trinity church, but the sunday service starts at 10am.... and then i saw Emporium.... the place that Andrew bought me to have a drink last week... it's 1000, Ann Street.... 1000!? OMG, i missed it already.... but where's it? everywhere are some Car's showroom.... Ford, Toyota.....
i asked God... Do u want me to come before u?! then i saw the Church, juz opposite to that street...
and i saw someone are late also.... when i came in, i told the receptionist i'm first time, she led me to the first few row at the middle, beside an old couple. they were worshiping, singing some songs, even i didn't hear those songs b4.... i tried to follow.... but i'm hardly sing since tears already running out.... i think it's God's mercy, so that i could find that church and join their sunday services.... when in praying time, i heard ppl spoke in tongue....
when greeting times, i chatted with the couple.... Sharon and Peter...
then a lady brought a basket of Chocolate, and asked who should get this chocolate.... Peter went out and said "Minnie over there, she found our church from the internet." and then he given me a chocolate bar..... so warm isn't it?!
the sermon was quite long.... like the BSF (bible study fellowship) i attended b4.... one senstence came to my mind.... "how i carried you on eagles' wings and bought you to myself".......... it became the blessing for today....
but i coudn't stay for the whole service, i left at 10:50am, and given myself 10 mins to walk back to chinatown.... b4 i left, i got the flyers abt their Easter programme.... there's a Good Friday drama at night.... i wonder if i should attend that or join some other church...
after that 10 mins walk, i juz got there on time....
OMG, crowded and crowded of customers.... then i worked for 5 hrs non-stop.....
at the last hours.... other waiters off duty.... remaining me and few ppl...... wendy said, "u know how low pay u are, u can work longer.... they can off.... " oh, do i need to thanks her given me more offer? but one ppl serve the whole restaurant.... take the orders, reset the tables, serve food, refilling the tableware..... but i saw other ppl at the back enjoying their dim sum at the back........ when i off-duty, all the food are gone.... Dan saw that and told me "Wendy is crazy, how can she treats me like that?"... even no food leaving for me... he tried to seek some remaining food for me.... he successfully got me some red bean puff, fried chicken... and asked me if i want some water.... he's another angel that God sent me.... i cried secretly while eating the food.... my nose was running.... i don't know if Dan and Wendy saw it.... i don't care....
when i went to bus-stop, i missed the bus.... need to wait for 50mins.... so i got a bus to city and change another bus.... while i was waiting the bus at city, a man came to me, he said "are u going to caridale?" yes, i am".... i thought he just want to make sure he got the right bus..... but he said, "i've got a weekly ticket, will be expired today.... i can give it to u, coz i bought the new one already....." oh, great! i can save money.... it saved abt $3 .... when i thought i have to spend more $ to interchange the bus at city... God sent me one more Angel and made me save $.i want to cry again....
the man who given me the ticket got the seat far away from me to wait the bus... but after we got on the bus, he sat beside me.... we hi again and chatted the whole travel time.... he lives at Camp Hill.... i can't figure out how old he is.... i think 4X-5X?? he said he works at city, BTW, he called Ken.
Terence finally arrived and given me a call.... he said i should tried to go back to the Singapore restaurant, since i got the TFN already.... yea, i should try.... i think the salary must be higher...
or i should start job hunting....
