Thanksgiving

Thank God that my first paper went quite well yesterday =) It is impossible without Him. Like what Pastor Kong says, as I do my best, He WILL do the rest. I have two more to go... Psychology's tmr... Sigh. That's my least confident module =( God, I need You. Holy Spirit, I need Your annointing, Your strength. Give me the ability to focus and concentrate... All to glorify You and shine for You in the marketplace.

This old worship song has been in my mind:
Refiner's fire
My heart's one desire is to be Holy
Set apart for You Lord
I choose to be Holy
Set apart for You my Master
Ready to do Your will...

Wonderful Day (:

My secondary school classmates and I took the opportunity of a public holiday on Monday and finally hanged out after what felt like eons! I was so glad that even though I have a paper the next day (oops...) but I decided to go for this outing. I really miss their craziness and wackiness. We went for lunch at Seoul Garden and had tons of fun reminiscing our odd "psychotic club" (where I suppose I developed my likings for gore from xD). Followed by lunch, we watched The Coffin! Wahahahaa. Many of us thought it would be scary. It is soooo scary... NOT! Haha. I was disappointed. Thought would be in for a scare-fest. Lol. There were some shocking parts here and there, but I laughed at its attempt to scare us. Filzah and I actually yawned twice during a horror movie! Geez. I think I'm immuned to horror movies since Shutter (which was undeniably freaky!) Oh, one guy in the theatre actually screamed at one part, and I laughed! Ahahaha. Aren't I a meanie =P So yes, we totally cam-whored!! Muahahaha!

My peeps! =D Guess who's behind the camera?

Camera-woman back in the frame xD


Aww... My Spiritual sister ((= Her one invitation to a cgm a year ago changed my life :) Love ya lots Dor! Breakthrough for her: she threaded her eyebrows!!! *applause*

How true...

Stumbled upon this image while googling xD But it really is so true...

Wow... Another convinction...

Happy 56th Birthday

Yeap, it was my dad's 56th birthday on Thursday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA! We had dinner at a simple Thai restaurant which he mentioned that he liked the food. Yes, the food were REALLY good. The whole meal cost less than $70, and the portions were more than generous. A breakthrough: I bought my dad's cake with my hard-earned-blood-and-sweat-money! It feels great to be a blesser ((=



Somehow, the cheesecake looks small in this pic xD

I Believe You're My Healer

Still having fever and runny nose, and developed a cough... Great! *roll eyes* Did not go to work again. It's been two days and my senior and boss doesn't seem happy about it. Felt groggy and cold when I woke up. Supposed to revise for my exams.. But my imperfect body doesn't allow me to. Once I lied on the bed, I just dozed off for a couple of hours; along with my notes and textbooks above my head =/ Argh, my flesh is weak! By faith, I believe I'll be healed by tomorrow morning, and will go to work and study and go for BS!!! By His Spirit and Power! Fighting~~~~

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me ~Phil 4:13

The Cross You're Carrying

This email really spoke to me and got me thinking =)











We often complain about the cross we bear but don't realize it is preparing us for the dip in the road that God can see and we can't.

Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,there will always be sunshine, after the rain....Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall;But God's always ready, to answer your call....

He knows every heartache, sees every tear,a word from His lips, can calm every fear...Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night. But suddenly vanish, dawn's early light...

The Savior is waiting, somewhere above,to give you His grace, and send you His love...

God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.

A Month of Contemplating

My blog posting frequency is really decreasing... I did not go to work today. I NEED rest, as suddenly I caught a runny nose and slight fever. But by His stripes and grace, I will be healed =)

Well, October has been a month of contemplation. Everything in my life has been great and I'm thankful for God's blessings. But, so many things just makes me wonder and bugging God: "what am I good at??? What do You want me to do in this earth???" Work is getting stagnent.. I know that I can do more than what I am doing now. I had to wear a costume which made me feel like a brainless object and some people really treated us disrespectfully. I saw the real side of this fallen world. As for schoolwork, no matter how hard I tried, I just get Pass or Credit. Am I not trying hard enough. Shot To Fame was pretty much a disaster xD Got rejected of course. Ahahaha. But on the positive side, I had TONNES of fun with Sam and Khoon Fai while practicising, and got to know more people in church. Perhaps we had TOO much fun goofing around instead of practising... We weren't that serious anyway. Heh. But big big CONGRATS to TheFocus!! Woohoo!! They were awesome! And Jason, their lead vocalist received Christ becuase of this event. Praise God! I hope they win!!! But the other two bands who got in are super good too.. To the extend of being professionals. This got me thinking though.... Seriously, what am I good at??? What are the talents that I have been given which can make me the salt of the earth, light of the world and a history maker? God...?? Talk to me... Your voice and calling seem so far away sometimes... I want to be so close to You Dad.

A week of facing stress in the marketplace makes me appreciate W331 and CHC even more. I look forward to see my dearest people every week. Without God's touch and their friendship, I really can't persevere. Edge night and service rocked! Abba Father definately spoked to everyone of us. He ensured me that I am precious in His eyes. Thanks for this wonderful honour.
Exams are coming up... So I really need to concentrate and get down to studying hard! Though demoralised, I trust in Him that He'll do the rest :)



StillBrainstormin' and TheFocus. Muahahaha. Potae, Jason, Stany and Eugene rocked the house man!

I will not give up. Give me the anointing so I can be just as creative as You, my Elohim. I will forever cling on to the cross and endure the hardships in this race and set my eyes on the pearly gates, my crown, my palace and finally seeing You and bowing down at Your throne (=

This Is A Blog Entry... Tadaaa!

Okay, this blog hasn’t been updated for a really, really, really LONG time! I’ve been really occupied with many things. I’m juggling with church, school and work. SOOOO many events and things has happened in the past few weeks, wonderful and great things of course! =D

Things at work have been rather good, am getting busier, and more familiarised with my job scope and the company as well. My boss is really nice and thank God that she has really been treating me so well, God’s favour is indeed very strong. Well, now that I’m working and studying at the same time, I feel that I’m being more fruitful; more motivation to do my assignments earlier before the deadline. And all these are not my own ability, but His ability in me :)

Been serving in children’s church for a few times and really had fun serving God =D The kids were of course super cute! But there are some who are....... *shake head and sigh* Hahaha.. Well, kids will be kids. But yeah, probably this is God’s ministry for me bah (=
Church has been AWESOME!! This is the season of Arise and Build, so Pastor Kong’s sermons are even more impactful and powerful than ever! God’s presence is always extremely strong and tangible in His house, aka the audi. He answered my prayer beyond my expectations! Last week, I wrote down what are the blessings that I want Him to give me, the moment I wrote that ‘full-stop’, I immediately started to weep so hard. Tears kept on rolling as I heard Holy Spirit spoke to me that yes, my prayers will be answered. And indeed, PRAISE the Lord, they are. My pay is beyond my expectations! And am very happy with the amount =D Thank you Abba Father. You NEVER fail me ^^

My cell group are the lovely people whom I look forward to meeting with every week. I LOVE, LOVE all of them!! They are great Godly people. So here are some of the beautiful pics of us beautiful God-men. Wahahahahaha.


Aww... W331!! This is the current wallpaper for my Creative Zen ^^





Like stupid fringe... get away! xD We went to Minds Cafe and we had TONS of fun!!



Chris's ridiculously huge pair of specs!! She is one of those few people in this planet who can carry this specs off well! Hahah! This was taken after CHC's first ever youth service *cheer* *clap* - The Edge!


Geez... I look all pinched up xD Was trying to control my laughter.

Oh, oh, I managed to drag Sam [Chew] to be my guitarist at a competition called A Shot To Fame organized by CHC (rules). So yay, we formed a band! Our name is quite lame and really silly but I think it’s the best name we thought at that short time-span. Since we were brainstorming for a name, I had an epiphany: why not call ourselves Brainstormin’?? Sam thought it was funny and that it fits us well and agreed. But later he added “still”, so yes, officially, we and a new band member – Kun Fai – another guitarist are called…….. StillBrainstormin’!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Funnay, I know! But isn’t it cute xD xD

So as a vocalist, I had my first training. I was dumbfounded when we had to sing! When it was my turn, my left hand literally was trembling and while holding the lyrics sheet, it was shaking. Laughs. I was really nervous. But thank God the trainer commented that it was good and I have good dynamics =) But need to work a few emphasises to add in more emotion… Well, hope that by God’s grace, StillBrainstormin’ can get through the auditions and into the finals. To really glorify Him with the talents that He has given unto us :)

Come support if…. Ahem, be positive… I mean, WHEN we make it!! Lol. Okay?? =D
