so today was Assumption.. haha. i thought i'd missed it. mass was good. oh and there's an article on Francis in the catholic news! heh got nice pic somemore! coolness. there was another article in the cat news that i thought was rather erm... helpful. lemmie just quote..

"at mass today, Jesus invites us to come to the feast not because our lives are perfect but because we have freely embraced his gift of mercy... all he asks is that we hold on to our confidence that he will never abandon us."

later met up with sh, gerald, benedict to go see fireworks. was not worth the crowd i tell ya! for a mere few mins of colorful stuff in the air. but yeah it was a pretty sight.

and since today is Assumption...

my soul glorifies the Lord
my spirit rejoices in God, my Saviour
He looks upon his servant in her lowliness
henceforth all ages will call me blessed

the Almighty works marvels for me
holy his name!
His mercy is from age to age
on those who fear him

He puts forth his arm in strenght
and scatters the proud-hearted
He casts the mighty from their thrones
and raises the lowly

He fills the starving with good things,
sends the rich away empty

He protects Israel, his servant,
remembering his mercy
the mercy promised to our fathers
to Abraham and his sons forever

i think i miss Legion....
