when i need a carbo therapy, i shall consider the above with good company. Need i say that i spent the night talking our hearts out, scouring the shelves of market place, and having our nose taps switched on thanks to tom yam soup, sambal kang kong and pineapple fried rice. unfortunately i was a bit more drained than poor her.
a bit drained from the workings of today. ah well. i must stop talking.
says pretty much. I propose that i'm suffering from some identity crisis. I've been watching Mulan (yes, don't laugh) while i read my articles. Makes me laugh, and makes me want to feel determined to try harder.
so glad i saw damiri today in the library. Saved me from paper chase. :) everything is happening too fast that there's no room for breathing. ahaha. Run first, and I'll make things up as I go along?
i need friend-o-therapy. I need to spend more time in solitude.
I figure i tell myself every week to sleep earlier on Saturday nights, but i'm up at 3am again. While everyone is seriously fermenting on their journals, (not that i ain't) but there are so many other things pre-occupying my mind.
I like Chris Tomlin's latest CD. I remember that as a child i used to love the song Amazing grace. Why? hmm, i can't really tell you why, could be the words, could be the tune. Along the way of growing up, hymns gave way to Hillsongs and the like. Now, it's not the tune anymore, its the words, hymns or planetshakers alike.
Amazing grace How sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost, but now I'm found Was blind, but now I see' Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed My chains are gone I've been set free My God, my Savior has ransomed me And like a flood His mercy rains Unending love, Amazing grace The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures He will my shield and portion be As long as life endures The earth shall soon dissolve like snow The sun forbear to shine But God, Who called me here below Will be forever mine Will be forever mine You are forever mine
It's friday again. Why is it that the weeks past by so quickly? argh. haven't even fermented yet. how do you ferment when you have no depth. This morning, i learnt about being strong and courageous. Funny how it is that God knows that i'm feeling quite the opposite. Everyone has their own moccasins to walk in, no one will quite understand what each is going through. stresses that come in different forms, of all shapes and sizes.
Have been playing pet society. haha. or rather my sister is playing for me and it's great bonding time laughing at all the stuff that comes out of those mystery boxes and laughing at all my friend's pets.
went early to church today! like for once i'm early on fridays. :) The video we watched felt really real to me and yet surreal at the same time. Sometimes i think about next year and all the plans i'm making, then i pause to think if i even will live to see next year. The speaker of the video- Joel Rosenburg Just for your reference: http://www.joelrosenberg.com/ He wrote a couple of books, and well, things happened as how he narrated it to be. 911 etc. I shall continue updating my e-sword. it's cool (when i find out how to use it) and it's free!! cheapskate i am. i admit it.
Sarah got scolded for not blogging. lols. I got scolded for not wanting to eat lunch cause i had no money. Tsk.
Its wednesday already! :( But i spent a twinkly tuesday night with cheryl in my room prying through all my stuff. Not that there was anything to hide. Weird people exist. weird people with cash flowing out of their pockets are commonplace from what she describes. Why can't there be more nice people who tip hotel staff who work so hard to keep their rooms spick and span.
I wonder when we discover we (people) have more in common than they think they do. The society is always divided into groups. Even in smaller 'societies' we are also divided into groups. the atas and the non-atas, the better educated vs the supposedly 'non-educated'
was feeling quite irrate at the beginning of the week, with the added responsibilities and the crosses that i have to carry. I oft think about watch night service when we usually share about the year. I have thoughts about getting back at all of them high up. For making me go through all these, and not feeling at all appreciated. It takes gumption to use cognitive strategies to convince myself that my labour is not in vain.
devotional time every morning during breakfast really helps. Elizabeth Elliot really writes well. It always pierces the soul; makes me want to change the way i think. If these crosses i must carry, let me carry them without complaining or arguing. It could be just a case of sowing in tears.
sun-kissed. i'm not an orange. But i might as well look like one. At least my shoulders. hahaha. Sadistically speaking, it feels great to be sun-kissed, because it means that i'm under the sun doing something vigorous. :) it was great fun swimming with my classmates under the 12pm sun.
And happy birthday Jie Ru and Marilyn. :) We took a lot of photos at Jie Ru's party. ahahaha. The night was glittery and classy. She really put a lot of effort into organizing it! its great to have birthday parties with the whole family involved. One day if i every have a party, it'll be with Mom, Pops, sis and mo. hahaha. The night ended with us running for the pumpkin (aka bus)
2/5 left. and a wave of familiarity of the i'm-not-ready-for-the-week-ahead sweeps over me
Van complained that i haven't been updating. Which is true i suppose. My brain was toasted yesterday at the toastmaster's club meeting. That's after a long day at school and weeks of sleeping late. Right now, i think my brain is still toasted- which is pretty awful cause it's only 11am and there's a long day of school ahead. Can't wait for my date with XL. hahaha. Tho i shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch, i can't wait for it to materialize. So many many things to do, this week is udderly packed. Like there's something to stay back for almost everyday. Now, i just need the gumption to start on my work. All those hefty articles to read and some serious reports to ferment upon.

Although the fig tree shall not blossom
neither shall fruit be in the vines;
the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat;
the flock shall be cut off from the fold,
and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.
Habakkuk 3:17-18
This lullaby is only a few words
A simple run of chords
Quiet here in this spare room
But you can hear it, hear it
Wherever you may go
I will let you down
But this lullaby plays on
">
coffee delight
when i need a carbo therapy, i shall consider the above with good company.
