sleepless nights are on the rise.
with a 10-page script, 1 project report and 1 research report due next week, i need my time to be MULTIPLIED! not forgetting the quiz i am having 16 hours later which i have not even got down to revising.

i literary need to experience the resurrection power this Easter.
believe that it's gonna be a blast!!!

glad to have taken the time out today to meet some of my members up. fruitful time and great company! reminds me of how God always work in ways beyond me.

i'm loving my life more each day. the more grace and strength i need. the more love i have for Him. nothing more...

after reading some blogs yesterday, i felt that my blogging is getting a bit too "personal" and that i kinda stopped writing about what I have been hearing and the burdens that i've been carrying. probably a case of self-centredness at work.

note to self:
- blog more about your thoughts and what makes you tick.
- share your beliefs and principles.
- teach about what you feel needs growing in.

in the giving, the more we receive...

Sunday, February 21, 2010 MPV dream...

I want to own a car by august this year.

With it, I can do so much more...
To serve my leaders, members, family and friends.

With it, I can multiply and make better use of my time,
To give the bs that I want to give. To grow my income and businesses. To meet more people.

this is something that I'm sure that I really want. And I'm confessing it into reality. And I'm believing for it to happen. I'm sick of cabs. Really.

I want my car, and I want it this august.

But before that, I will get my license in may. Amen.

Wednesday, February 17, 2010 CNY Day 3

Been a day filled with toddlers and I love them loads - Jay and Raphie. Very very cute and adorable. Had a chat with Nic about raising kids. Should really learn about child development and start disciplining kids since young, breaking their spirit when there is a need to. Guess raising kids is also a growing up and learning process for parents too. :)

Hearing Jay talk just kept me motivated and intrigued by how they process all the linguistic information. Very interesting observations too! Looking forward to hear me babble and talk more. Really smart baby!

Caught up with Wei En after San's place over lunch and had a whale of a time at the arcade. Perhaps we are all indeed children at heart. :)

Should really learn to spend more time catching up with various friends soon! :D

Just went for Geraldine's mum's wake. Got caught by the grief that she was feeling deep within. I can't begin to imagine the loss that I would feel to lose my parents or grandparents one day. Praying that she'll be strong about it. It also reminds how lives can be touched and changed by crucial moments like these.

It kinda also hit on me that as I now grow older, my parents aren't exactly younger. Grandma is already 84, daddy 51 and mummy 45. And in a decade or two, daddy and mummy would be senior citizens already. And to think that grandparents on both sides are already great-grandparents, with the youngest at almost 7 months. Feel the need to inherit and master their skills and also to pull in the gaps between the generations. Furthermore, there isn't exactly a big that age gap.

Relationships precedes ministry and this was exactly what I saw in action today. Went over to have dinner w Pst, Wenling, Kelvin, Yating and Jaslyn. It is really inspiring to see Pst, Yating and Jaslyn at work together in the kitchen to cook for all of us. I saw the friendships that were present and how everyone served one another. Particularly touched by Pastor's time with Chyanne. Saw a different side of Pastor today. :)

Being the definitions person I am, I am thankful for a fresh start with a friend today. Letting bygones be bygones. :)

Tmr gonna be a great day! <3

I'm not the easiest person to love
I'm often the one who lets things go unresolved

Yet you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
Yet you choose to be on the side of me
On the side of me

I'm not too proud of some things
I've done in my life
The skeletons in my closet
Are too big for me to hide

Yet you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
Blessed Charity
You're on the side of me
On the side of me

'Cause everyone needs a friend to hold
When it's cold outside
And there's no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
All alone I cried
There was no place to go
I remember when nobody cared
But you

I'm not the easiest person to love
But you, you've opened your heart to show me what I'm worth

'Cause you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
What a mystery
You're on the side of me
On the side of me

'Cause everyone needs a friend to hold
When it's cold outside
And there's no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
All alone I cried
There was no place to go

I remember when nobody cared
I remember when nobody cared
Nobody cared
But you...

Yeah you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me

- On the side of me -
by Corrine May

this year's valentine has been the weirdest by far but yet one of the sweetest.

left the house at almost 1130pm, deciding that i needed the time and space to unwind, i went to catch valentine's day alone (my first movie alone, ever - mum wanted me to spend time with her but she ended up working most of the time and i went off after she slept). but still it was a rather unique experience to make comments about the show and tear over at the various parts with no one to share all of which with you. but something that i could live with i guess. so who says a person cannot catch Valentine's Day on Valentine's day?

liked the show and all the twists to it. encapsulated a lot of real-life instances within. and some of it were pretty touching. i liked the part about how one married to his best friend motivated the younger chap to do the same. and the part about them being on swings together and wine after illustrated the point about growing older together with shared memories. lovely. and the part that moved me to tears? captain mummy on 14 hour flight back home to love her little boy for a night. it kinda flashed across as how i would want to feel love from my parents and the kind of parent that i wanna be one day too.

the show really took my mind off things and made it a whole lot easier to prayer walk home from amk hub. and the part of walking, praying, praising and worshipping is really the sweetest part of my day. felt very lifted thereafter as i praised and pray. gave me greater clarity and release as i prayed. and reminds me that God loves me so much that He is there to see me through and protect me in every single situation, even the turmoils i feel rather often these days.

i somehow do feel myself growing up and a little older these , adding on to the fact that i'm actually turning twenty-one in another 4.5 months. it is the kind of paradox that i feel very much like a little girl and a grown-up at the same time, bearing all the responsibilities that i have taken up.

或许在这成长的阶段里人们都会变得沉默一些,多加与思考中。 对于自己的情感我必须再次勇敢地去面对。
