Thankful...
Today has been such a wonderful day and a day which shows how evident God is and His faithfulness. I obtained a job interview for the position of a Junior PR Executive at a modelling/talent scouting company!! It's the job which I was aiming for (: I really need to be more well prepared this time but I believe that my angels and Holy Spirit will be there ((: Secondly, I got into choir ministry! I feel so glad that I can have another awesome platform to serve God in. I know with all of my heart that I'll end 2009 with a bang!! And 2010 will have even unimganiable breakthroughs and blessings!

A Random List of Occurances
Here I go again, blogging at work. I have just finished a task which my boss assigned and awhile later, I went, "err... now what??". Sigh... It's okay, I'm still believing for a fantastic career which I will have by Feb 2010!
1. In the area of my job hunting, I had an interview last Tuesday for the position of Marketing & Communications Coordinator at a very prominent Intellectual Property firm (whose name I shall not disclose). I was so excited when I received the call to head down for the interview. But when I got closer to the office building, I felt really intimidated and nervous. When I entered the building, then the office overlooking the breathtaking view of the CBD area, it dawned upon me that this it is; a REAL job! A jobscope which is one of my dream jobs. Before the interview, I had to do a test which consisted checking discrepancies, spotting spelling/format errors and summarising a letter into an internal memo. Within me I wanted to scream and run! But I knew that I wasn't alone in the room; that my Helper was there. By faith and relying on His wisdom, I completed it. I waited for about 10 or 15 mins for the interview with the Marketing Manager. It was probably the longest 10 mins in my life (well, so far). She was nice and all but quite demanding and did not seem to be impressed with me not asking her much questions. But I honestly did not have any question! Like geez! Haha. Oh well, yes, I could have done better and it was undeniably the most difficult interview I ever been to, however it was a great experience and now I know how an interview for a higher/executive level is. It is all up to God's perfect will whether will I get that job. Believing in His promise, I know that I will attain my dream job very, very soon! I can feel it! =D
2. What else... oh, I have been Christmas shopping and really, it is so much BETTER to give than to receive! This job has been a financial blessing to me (and I believe next year will be more!) so it feels amazing to be able to give gifts to my family and my close friends! It is really a feeling which I can't describe! I hope that they will like my gift ((: Speaking of giving, I felt such a sense of relief and joy when I gave my mom, for the first time, an amount to contribute into my education loan (: God has been good to me and He will be even better next year!
3. Candlelight service was beautiful as always ((: Pastor Kong preached a great message fill with many miraculous testimonies to show how real God is and those testimonies really built up my faith level in believing in the healing of my eczema and restoration of my dental problems. Indeed, if God can heal cancer and diseases which doctors give up hope on, my eczema, being such a minute skin problem, is indeed possible with my Jehovah Rapha ^^ When we lit up the candles, the auditorium was just so beautiful and you could just sense the peace of God overflowing. I was immensed in His presence especially when singing O Holy Night and Silent Night, Holy Night that I did not take a picture. Haha. I just did not want the feeling to discontinue.
4. Sunday's Christmas party between W480 and W452 was a blast!!!! I have to say, Cindy, Rou and Suryanto are great Game Masters and event planners! The forfeit was madness! The losing team (which I was in, sigh! We were leading initially!) had to be dunked plates of shaving cream. While defending our grounds on not to be dunked, Cindy just charged and smashed the plate on my face!!!! Oh man!!! That was uber unexpected!! I remember I kept screaming, "CINDY, I'M NOT A GUY!!!". Lols!! Because girls were supposed to be dunked at our shoulders. A few seconds later, a battlefield was formed and everyone ended up with shaving cream all over them. There goes all the girls' make-up and hairdos. The cleaning up part was horrible! The hotel room was in a mess! It looked like it had been vandalised! Thank goodness we managed to clean them off. After that, we brainstormed for our drama. We got an open theme. Initially we were happy but then we had so many ideas that we did not know which to choose. Suryanto helped us and we decided to do a parody of the Nativity Story =P HAHAHA. Oops... Seems liek no reverence for God =PP It was soo fun!! From nothing, all of us 'impromptued' and managed to act out a funny drama. The rest apparently liked it as they laughed at funny scenes and at me! I think I was just clowning around being a silly narrator xD I loved the part when Guo Lei went: "wo she ye shu!" HAHAHA. Unforgettable! The other teams were hilarious!! Not to mention, explicit as well! The fairy tales were like rated versions! Haha. Malcolm's team really outshone the rest! Their's was fantastic! It was really such a fun night and it ended with gift exchange. So funny, my gift received the highest bid of 14 votes kudos to my copywriting skills!! Wahahahahahaha... Oops, self-praise xP The most funny was I got Josh's gift! And it was a star lantern............................. o.O
5. In conclusion to this random list, I am soo looking forward to Christmas!! Woots! My brother has just arrived today. It has been a month since we last saw him. Can't wait to spend time with him (:
Well... Off to meet Dorothy in town now to do a bit more of Christmas shopping and help her to choose a fabulous Ed Hardy shirt!! =D

Tuesday, December 1, 2009
Oh gosh, it just hit me when I entered into my office that it is 1 Dec! It is officially the last month of 2009. November just seem to drift by like it has never even existed. Then again, I just feel that everything in my life is in fast forward mode ever since my exams ended. I guess it is due to the mundanity of going to work and doing things which I do not enjoy. It has been a great job while I was studying and I really do thank God for this opportunity and having such a flexible and understanding boss. But the jobscope is really not challenging and not of my interests. Now that I have had enough rest and play-time since the end of my semester, I am beginning to feel unproductive and unfruitful. I actually want to start writing essays and conduct research in the library o.O The workaholic in me is bursting in agony! I also feel that my brain seems to be melting away... Or what's left of it. Laughs... Oh well, I'm just going to endure and perservere on. I'm sure that there is a purpose for me in this company, and hope that I'll have more breakthroughs in it and receive a pay increment (:
Still pondering on the fact that there is only 30 and a half-day left to 2010, it just gets me thinking on my achievements and the goals that I set in the beginning of the year. There are still a few stuff that I haven't fulfill (yet, hopefully) but one thing which I am proud of is how much God has been evident in my life, how much my love for Him has grown and how much I have done for Him. I have grown a lot closer to my members, something which, looking back with a smirk on my face, was such an impossible struggle for me. But now, they are the people whom I look forward to weekly, people whom I can depend on; especially Rouxin. She has always been there for me throughout the year, imparting me and though some discipleship was hard (particularly on leading Praise =P), I know that it is out of the love she has for me for putting in so much effort. Indeed, she has been one of my blessings in 2009. Nonetheless, I have so, so, so much more to learn from her, especially in this trying time for W480. But fear not, we are people of faith and I am sure that the vision for W480 will come to pass, with the amount of prayers and fasts we have put.
For the rest of the year, I will definitely step up in my ministry, focus on growth, to go to work with a positive attitude and continue to pray for a breakthrough for my eczema, which I confess WILL heal by the second week of Dec 09 ((: It is one of my many dreams which I have written on my offering envelope during last week's impactful service led by Pastor Kong. I gave my biggest offering yet and I believe that it will release miracles and my Jehovah Rapha will grant me my dream.
Choir audition is tonight!! I finally gathered up the courage to go for it as I should serve more. May God's annointing be upon me... It will be another awesome ministry to be in (:

It's Pa's birthday today! He turns 57 this year... Hopefully he'll be wiser with age. Hahas. He has been improving and th changes in him are visible (after YEARS of prayer). Bought him a pair of shades and he really liked it and PTL, it suited him! It feels great to have the income so that I'm able to bless others, especially my parents (: It felt even more amazing when I gave my biggest amount of tithe this month and my offerings have increased! Can't wait to fulfill my building fund too!
Another thing to look forward to is my brother, who is finally coming back after what feels like ages~ It has been about two and a half months since he came back. Can't wait to catch up with him! And maybe have a movie with him. He's always my ultimate movie-buff-buddy (((:
So will have a good weekend with my family to anticipate. But it really saddens me that I can't attend cgm tonight ): Can't wait to spend more time with my cell soon after this agonising semester is over~! And not to mention the things to do in my connect group. Three more weeks to go! D= Oh man, I really ought to prep for my revisions; but I get so tired and brain-dead after work >< God, strengthen me!
Went to visit the doctor yesterday as my eczema flare up again due to the weather and shellfish T-T It's really a burden in my life and a suffering since I was... 16? ): However, I STILL have faith in my Jehovah Rapha and like what Pastor preached, there is ALWAYS a light at the end of the tunnel and I WILL walk out of this valley stronger and completely healed!
All in all........ I feel happy..... ^^ God knows why (:

I finally visited my blog site...
So much has happened since July. A new semester, a new job and growth in my spiritual life. Now in October, my semester is ending soon and I am confirmed as a staff with my company. Looking back, I did well for this semester and learnt alot in my workplace. But... It was such a struggle... Juggling work and school... I am so tired... I am now so worried about my assignments which are due extremely soon... My exams in November... As for work, I need more breakthroughs; I want to do beyond what I'm doing now. Spiritual life... I think I can do better... I can just hear Holy Spirit speaking to me about making more sacrifices. I used to be excited for morning prayer meetings, but now, yes, I am still very much excited but my flesh just cave in. Had to work for 12 hours for the past four days for my company's event. Now, I just feel so drained. I want to be swept away by God's presence again; I want that fresh touch; I desperately need God... I miss my cell group. Just when I'm given more opportunities to serve, my classes are in the way.
Just FOUR more weeks... Four more weeks and it's over!
In addition, one more trouble is on my mind... Insecurity begone~! And am I able to fulfill my 2009 resolutions....? =\

Wow, it's been more than a month since I last blogged!! June was a pretty hectic month for me with my exams going on. Thank God that it went smoothly and I was able to answer the questions. The results will be released on 17th July, so I'm hoping for the best and trusting in God. I'm having hols now and rotting at home! I feel so unproductive most of the time! Well, it'll be ending soon anyway as the new semester begins on 20th July, which is in a couple of weeks.
Obviously many things have happened for the past month; the good, the bad and the exciting. I am just extremely glad to see that my cell group has been in good progress! And in some ways there is growth and I can see that we are more bonded (: Plus, I am just overjoyed that Simin has rededicated her life back to Christ and has been attending service and even our prayer meeting despite her busy schedule. I'm just continuing to pray that she will feel so belonged to 480 and part of our family. This Saturday, Jaya is coming for service too!! Yayness! =D Furthermore, I feel so proud that Jianchao and Sam brought friends to the badminton tournament past Sunday, and Angela's friend, Heidi was really open and fun to talk to. Let's just continue to pray for a mightier harvest and that our vision shall come to pass!
What else... Oh yes, dearest Joshua's birthday certainly kept me busy in June. Thank God for increased capacity that in the midst of my revision I was able to plan his 21st birthday bash with Jeremy. Thankfully, Mr. High Expectations enjoyed the party and everything went smoothly! We all had fun and it was nice knowing his friends and people from SOT. Josh was really touched and appreciated Jeremy and I; he even gave me a really cute photo frame which is now proudly displayed in my room. It always feels good to be a blesser and serve others, especially friends whom I treasure. Speaking of which, the next party to help out at is Denise's, which is another opportunity to be a blesser and love people more. I guess all these party planning sets my foundation to be in the PR and events management field in the future! Haha!
As for the bad, despite going through a financial wilderness, I am continuing to believe that I will get out of the valley soon and live in abundance. Something which impacted me through the Songs of Solomon bible study series was loving God and trusting in Him even when we go through trials and wilderness. So yup, I will live by faith, prayer and fasting (something which I ought to improve on! Crucify my flesh!). Thank God that my mum's out of her financial wilderness as she quit her job approximately a month ago. Now she seems happier at her current job. However, I am just rather worried about her health as a few weeks ago the doctor diagnosed that she is showing symptoms of a mild stroke. Her headaches and numbness of her cheek and arm areas are reducing, but yeah, I just have to continue to pray for her healing. Praise God that she's been coming for service for almost two months now and next Friday will be her first cgm!!!! *applause*
In the topic of healing, my eczema condition is evidently improving!!!!! All thanks to my ultimate doctor in Heaven - my Jehovah Rapha and of course, my cell group members' prayers (it was one of my prayer request =P)! Indeed, this year WILL be the year that I receive my COMPLETE healing ((: Wahahs!
What else... Oh, the session with Rev. Dr. Bernard on leadership last night was extremely impactful and mind-blowing. Certainly God was speaking to the whole church through him. I can't wait for a more awesome service with him this weekend. Alright, with my attempt to meet my goal weight (argh), I'm going off to jog now. Man, I think I have to jog doubly hard to prepare to face all the intake of the calories during tomorrow's steamboat dinner xD I am soo looking forward to finally having dinner with Elyn after what feels like eons!!! Furthermore, we'll be heading back to where 331 had our first CNY steamboat dinner last year!! So nostalgic! Haha. Can't wait for cgm this Friday as well, especially after 6 weeks of BS and prayer meeting. Okay, enough typing, and start jogging!!! =P

Praise God! I'm healed! Pain, fever and diarrhea are now left behind! Now it is time to get back to work; to begin my revision and mugging; to focus and put faith into works; time to be urgent in building His kingdom and the lives of His people. Tuesday night's rendezvous was quite a wake up call, but changes are always good and we are all believing and running with Rou's vision! Facing changes, I need to stretch myself even further and increase my capacity. If it is not out of love, what other reasons are there...? Need to be a more effective love channel; to love and to care. Ultimately, it all boils down to basics. We can overcome this! Not to be a sack of potatoes but a flock of geese (Haha! Dearest Rouxin's analogy is so adorable ^^) It is time to put on the armour and implement PFF!!!
Be very strong and courageous, for I am with you wherever you go...

Recuperation...
It has been five days since my surgery... Been rotting at home and doing absolutely nothing! Had such a boring Sunday ): I was cooped up at home instead of joining the 480-ians for pool. Whine whine... Though thank God that my recovery has been speedy; I'm able to talk more, but still can't fully smile nor laugh, which is an agonising struggle for me! The painkiller is making me groggy and my stomach feeling a little funny >< I hate it when my body doesn't allow me to do more fruitful things. I have so many things to do! For one thing, I HAVE TO and MUST begin my revision as well as my final Journ assignment... I'm starting to feel on th edge about my upcoming exams now =S Ahh... I can't think much and I'm feeling a little feverish now =| God, let there not be any infection; make me well! I'm praying that I'll be much, much better so I can have fun with my spiritual family tonight! Mien's suggesting that we head down to Holland Village! Ramen~~ At least I can have that! Hahas. Yeah, the texture of my food is getting more solid. But still... I miss chocolate T-T And you know what I truly, truly miss the most? This surprises me as well... I miss praying! Especially in the Spirit! )):
I confess that I WILL RECOVER by tonight!!!! D=
Just a random thought which came into my mind... Should I go back to dance? =\ With all the commitments and rehersals... Will I be able to juggle?
Another random topic: Boy Meets Girl by Joshua Harris is a totally awesome book! I'm so blessed by the book and am glad that I bought it. It has completely altered my perception on the issue of relationship. One particular thing which impacted me the most was it is not about "this is the man that I want, but rather a man whom I can follow." Deepness...

Instead of being at Riverwalk right now, here I am, immersing myself in the virtual cyberspace. Man, I don't like to miss cgms ): Sadly, though my spirit is willing, my flesh is weak ):
I had my wisdom teeth surgery this morning. Gosh, it was agonising! It didn't hurt actually, I'm not in pain either (thank God for my high threshold for pain), it's just that it is so, so uncomfortable; I can still taste a little blood, I'm swollen like a pumpkin, I can hardly talk and I can't have any solid food. Argh.
The first step during the surgery was to of course to numb my mouth via aneasthesia. Geez, there were so many number jabs!!! Like four or five I think. And one particularly "struck" my nerve and that was absolutely unpleasant >< So a few minutes later, after the aneasthesia kicks in, she then extracted my top tooth. While she was using the forceps and applying force, I was seriously calling out to Jesus repeatedly xD The top one came out easily but the worst part was when she moved on to the bottom one which was verging on decay. It took her nearly an hour O.O My jaw hurt when she was using her might and strenght to pull it out. It wasn't good news as according to the dentist, my roots were attached to my bone. Yikes. Throughout the whole time, I kept praying like mad! I knew God was with me throughout the whole surgery (: I was so relieved when she finally stiched up the wound. It was my first stichting ever.
I was thinking to myself, if I can survive this, bring on the braces! Lols. Or will this be the beginning of my painful journey... Ahh... So daunting. But honestly, this is not that bad and quite painless even when the aneasthesia wore off. However... I want to eat!!!! I only had like a bowl of cold porridge today =.= Anyway, another thing which struck me was that my friends did care and texted me (: Want to thank all of them for their prayers too (: Well, I'm continuing to pray that the swell will subside so I'm able to go to service tomorrow. Lay hands~!

While she was using the forceps and applying force, I was seriously calling out to Jesus repeatedly xD The top one came out easily but the worst part was when she moved on to the bottom one which was verging on decay. It took her nearly an hour O.O My jaw hurt when she was using her might and strenght to pull it out. It wasn't good news as according to the dentist, my roots were attached to my bone. Yikes. Throughout the whole time, I kept praying like mad! I knew God was with me throughout the whole surgery (: I was so relieved when she finally stiched up the wound. It was my first stichting ever.
I was thinking to myself, if I can survive this, bring on the braces! Lols. Or will this be the beginning of my painful journey... Ahh... So daunting. But honestly, this is not that bad and quite painless even when the aneasthesia wore off. However... I want to eat!!!! I only had like a bowl of cold porridge today =.= Anyway, another thing which struck me was that my friends did care and texted me (: Want to thank all of them for their prayers too (: Well, I'm continuing to pray that the swell will subside so I'm able to go to service tomorrow. Lay hands~!

Indescribable
Just a quick one to show how God never fails to amaze me more... ((:
Today was my very, very first time giving bible study!!! =O And my dear guinea pig was Melissa!! Hahahas. She's a sweet gal ^^ We managed to get a quiet spot at Long John's located at Central, and it struck me that just approximately a year ago, that was the exact same location which I received bible study! Wow... It just amazes me at how much God has use me and how much Holy Spirit has helped me to grow. Indeed, I feel so honoured to serve Him and His people (: So initially I was extremely nervous! I could feel that my heart was pounding and my voice was quite shaky. It's not Mel who made me nervy, it's just me and my sometimes-perfectionist-inner-me. Hahas. Always wants everything to be smooth and perfect. Nevertheless, as I prayed for wisdom and my desire to impart, everything just flows =D It definitely wasn't me; it was totally Him in and through me (: So yeah, it was such a frutiful time... Thank God that His presence was felt and that I managed to impart with examples of how God changed me and my experiences. Additionally, without a teacher's guide, I used those extra verses and notes which I jotted down to teach further. Yay, being hardworking last year did pays off =PP Muahas. But truly, I can't emphasise enough that it wasn't my own ability but His (: Also thankful that I have more opportunity to bond with Mel more.
Afterwhich, it was cell group meeting! Something which I look forward to weekly (: I was extremely impacted. The sermon was in conjunction to my desire for healing of my long-suffering of my eczema. Man, I cried like a baby!! I did not cry like this for a super long time! I couldn't help it; when I feel God's presence, I cry xD Plus, with His overwhelming, tangible presence, I cried buckets! Uber thin-skin to God (Josh, I'm thin-skinned to all men too kay, not just certain men!! *humph* Lols =P). Then all the members prayed for my healing as well as for Josh's long-suffering back and neck problems. As they laid their hands upon me, I immediately felt the power of the Spirit and broke into tears again (geez.. haha). Yeah, I believe that this year will be THE year which I will finally say a big GOODBYE to evil-eczema, and hello pretty skirts and shorts. Amen and Hallelujah!!! =DD
It is God's divine will that I will be in good health so to be a more efficient vessel for Him (((: In Jesus's name! ^^ I LOVE YOU!!

Man... Time flies... It is about five more weeks to my exams, and then it is the end of this semester. I've got to say that this semester has not been a very smooth one; went through a few number of valleys. But I'm sure that from now till my exams, there will no longer be a valley; indeed, I will be out of it and I will succeed in my papers! ((: I will continue to believe in His promises. Greater is He that is in me (:
You know what, just a few seconds ago as I confessed the above statement, I checked my email and guess what, I scored a Distinction for my Media Law assignment!!! Wow!!! Praise God! I have been waiting for a good testimony to share, and yay, I've gotten one for this week! He indeed answers our prayers ^^ I feel so uplifted and encouraged now. All glory to Him =D Speaking of prayers, Dr. Cho's book entitled Praying with Jesus is simply awesome! Received sooo many revelations about Him and learned a lot about prayer life and praying effectively. A great and awe-inspiring book!
So yes, I've got to persevere on in my studies and strive to be a good finisher of excellence (: Fighting Sarah!!
Anyways, have some memories to journal about, along with photos! Finally, photos are filled here. Hahas. Haven't been cam-whoring recently.
My broher finally uploaded the photos we took at our KL trip in April. So yup, the one in pink is my Uncle Leo (: He was one of the most fun uncle whom I remembered most when I was in Penang as a toddler. Next to me is an uber mischievous cousin of mine. So cute!!
The one in white is Uncle Peter and his daughter, Ashley. That was the first time I met her! She's cute, only 11. Then I had a realisation... I'm exactly 10 years older... O.O *yikes*
The Carlos-es! Wahaha ^^ I've got to say the resemblances are rather obvious xD Aye, did not have a shot just me with Anastasia ):

The Carlos-es! Wahaha ^^ I've got to say the resemblances are rather obvious xD Aye, did not have a shot just me with Anastasia ):Another memorable thing occured on May Day aka Labour Day. Grace, my cell member, Grace, who is from Korea, invited her to her house for an authentic Korean feast! Her house was lovely, had a very warm and homey feeling to it. The food was heavenly!! I can't believe she cooked them! They were so so so good. We were like all chewing while sniffing away due to the spiciness. The higlight for me was the Spicy Ricecakes =D
It was super shiok~ On top of this, there were also Kimchi soup (delightful), Stir-fry Glass noodles (causes salivation just by the looks of it), beef and authentic Korean rice! The food made my day xD Felt so touched that she cooked for us. So motherly of her!
In addition to Korean food, I had an extremely delicious Japanese dessert with Dor and Ting at a cafe called Ministry of Food located at the newly renovated Sembawang Shopping Centre. It was soooo [orgasmically xP] good!
To end this post, let me qrite about Mother's Day (: This year's annual event is more meaningful because my lovely mom went to service with me! It was her fifth service; additionally, she has been really automatic about coming for service (: Every mom received a $10 Attributes voucher, so I bought a book for her, entitled "I Dare You" by Joyce Meyer. Since the voucher can only be used with a spending of $30, I bought another book for myself. I hope that I can learn more through the book. After service, had dinner at Billy Bomber's with my mom. The food was actually good; beyond what I expected.
Ignite that passion in your life mommy!
Really pray that this year will be the greatest year yet for my mom especially in her walk with God. Furthermore, just want to thank God for a wonderful mommy and that our mother-daughter relationship will improve everyday. Nonetheless, I LOVE MY MOM =DD

When Will I Ever Learn...
As the title of this post suggests, yes, I just ask myself that question yesterday. Well, I have finally completed my essay which is an assessment of Authorship and Writing. The module is notoriously known as a killer module, and I've got to admit that it definitely, unquestionably, without a doubt (too much use of synonyms?) is a KILLER! I have to confess that due to my procrastination, it led me to that question in the title. Again, a late submission... AGAIN! Sarah, Sarah, when will you ever learn? Well, i just have to receive the penalty then, which is being increased to a deduction of 5% T-T It is a consequence which I have to accept because of my actions ): It's too late for regrets now; as the saying goes, 'no point crying over spilled milk'. Though I can just kick myself in the a**!!!
I don't know what happened to me over the weekend. I was rather moody, so just laid aside my essay thinking that I can handle it. As it turns out... NO! So yeah, back to my weekend. I had no idea why I was moody; I shouldn't have because service was great, my mom attended it for the second time (an answer to my prayer), my brother was back for the weekend, and we had new friends during cell group meeting. So why? I hate it when my mood precedes me. Perhaps it's just one of those days... Or were my hormones in domination? =\
Yeah, we had new friends, but I have to confess, I have forgotten their names >< (how loving of me). I am just bad in remembering Chinese names... Jian something... =.= Anyways, it wasn't a normal cgm, instead we had potluck and watched X-Men Origins: Wolverin! Wahahaha... The power of piracy =P It was hilarious though, as it wasn't completely edited, so we could see the ropes attached to the actors when they had to perform stunts. And some graphics were still in draft form xD But it was interesting to see how the movie is before editing. All hail to professional editing! Hahas. In conjunction with my mood over the weekend, I felt distant and detached from my cell members and I absolutely detest that as being closer to them is one of my desires and prayers! What was wrong with me... God, please give me self-control... Speaking of God, I have that bad feel of monotony in my spiritual life, again... Draw me close to you Lord...
Argh... I shan't dwell in the past nor past mistakes, instead look forward! Postivity, Sarah, and optimism ((: I watched a movie in cable last night with my dad (gasps! he doesn't share much similar taste with me in popular culture), I enjoyed the moment with him and the movie entirely! I fell in love with the music and the plot. It is an Indie-film (in which I am a big fan of, as they are not mainstream, thus not Hollywoodised), set in Ireland. The title is Once; it is more than a simple boy-meets-girl scenario, the ending is not a happy one (no one died, just that they did not end up together which is appalling as their chemistry is great). It's about a musician so lots of music were involved. Man, the songs are awesome! Those kind of songs along the line of Damien Rice, which I adore! One of the song is "Falling Slowly", and I just can't seem to stop listening to it. The music and lyrics are beautiful ((: Here's the link of it

Falling Slowly
Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova
Once OST
I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

Yes! Back to blogging again! Finally. Hahas.
Banyak, banyak happenings (: Can't talk about each of them in detail; just too much to say, or rather, type! *such a hassle* =P So yeah, went to KL last weekend to visit my uncle. Thank God that he's much better now. It was a great time to finally meet my Uncle Peter after 21 years and Uncle Leo for almost 16 o.O They all like went: "Awww Sarah, all grown up! You were a tiny baby in my arms!" Aww... hahas. Reunions are always great. Plus, caught up with my cousins, especially Anastasia. She has grown alot prettier ^^ Also, did some shopping! Wahahaha. A necessary activity for me whenever I'm back to my hometown =P Also, am proud of my brother, he's doing really well in his studies as a steward; he's been scoring A's!
Was soooo happy that Jenny joined me and my cell for service and fellowship! Hope to integrate her into the cell very soon! Holy Spirit, help! Well, I was quite discouraged at first that I wasn't able to bring friends to this Easter season. But, like what Rouxin said, there's always time and season for everyone to encounter God. I was really blessed by our 30-minute phone call. We chatted many things beyond cg and God and it felt great! Not that I don't like my cg! Haha. Just yeah, I desire to grow my friendship with Rou too, other than serving her (: "Relationship preceeds ministry", something that I keep in mind and strive for. But, amazingly, my mom came to the Saturday service!!! Wow, that made it all worth it! So happy that she took the first step to come. She enjoyed it and felt God again. I pray that she'll continue to come week after week, integrate into a cell group and make friends whom she is able to have fun with! I'm just overjoyed and can't thank God and Holy Spirit enough for answering my prayer. One item that I can tick in my prayer book ((: Praise God!
Additionally, I got another tuition assignment! Yay! Thank God again! More open heaven and His blessings (:
What else, what else... Oh, leader prayer meeting was awesome! I was trememdously blessed. I felt God so strongly.. Suddenly got reminded of Pastor Phil's words: "when was the last time you got swept away by God's presence?" Yeah, that was the time; and more to come. May it never cease (: So yes, back to Easter, the drama was beyond great! Two-thumbs up indeed! They really outdone themselves! What else... Oh yes, just returned from dinner with W331-ians. It is always very fun when we gather together and share about things. It was great seeing Sam Chew and JH gor after what felt like ages! Miss their humour. Haha.
This week will be tedious... I've got two essays to complete... By His grace and strenght! By the way, this is one of the the few songs which has been stuck in my head and something which I've been listening to over and over. One is Love Story by Taylor Swift. It's cute and girly and catchy. Laughs. Another is by Miley Cyrus. I know she is not known for a great singer, but I really like the lyrics of the song; the words are meaningful and expressive.
The Climb
I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on
'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa

Revived!
Man... Did not realised that it's been a month since my last post. My blogging frequency has decreased by a mile! Well, here's a post to kick-start the revival of my blog. Hahas.
Definitely, many things had happened for the past month. The end of my internship (finally!), new semester begins (meaning assignments coming on my way), met a new friend (Jenny!), tutoring a P1 kid (who is absolutely adorable ^^) and many, many events!
I thought that I will be less busy after my internship ends. Rather, I spent more time surfing the net and updating my blog at the office! =PP So now, I hardly go online, thus update my blog and all. I have to keep it short because today, I just had a paroxysm (learnt a new word =D) of realisation that I have two assignments due very, very soon DD= *in desperate need of God's grace and wisdom ><* So am going to go through my notes (and it's 12am) and plan my essay. Will be a long day tomorrow as I'll will be tutoring in the morning, then head down to my third home, the National Library (oh joy) to research for more materials for my essay (which I aim to complete half of it), then rush down to cgm. Really, really, really am hoping and praying that Jenny will join me for cell tomorrow......
I've got to catch up on tons of wordy readings next week!!! Need to stretch my physical and mental capacity further!

Princess Turns 21
Yes, late entry, been busy with work.
Had a very memorable 21st party! All thanks to my family for all the planning, and my lovely friends for attending (: Oh man... 21 ><> 
Me, 21!!!!
Meet my dearest party planner! Love you gor and owe you big time. Being in PR/mar comm, I promised him that I'll be his wedding planner. Muaha!
The set designer! Aww... She gave me a bouqeut! Added to my royal day ^^
I like this pic with my dad (:
On my birthday night, we had a simple but yummy dinner at the Manhattan Fish Market.
I was surprised and extremely touched by Dor and Ting. They actually blessed me with such a big gift! Or rather, gifts. We went shopping a day before my birthday and got me a really, really pretty black dress, earrings from River Island and shoes (yay). Love them!!! The next morning, went to the beach and walked with my grandmother, then had lunch with her. It was nice (: Hardly spend time with her. When I returned, I was stunned at how pretty the place has turned! It was beyond my expectations.
How pretty is the background?!! Really want to thank my mum for being so generous in throwing me this party at quite a big scale (((:
Glad that my grandma enjoyed herself (: I was afraid that she'll be bored. According to many of my friends, she is adorable! Lol. She is, but can get on my nerves... Sometimes =P
CHC-ians!
480 and 452 ^^ Well, not all came down, but was happy to see these people who came all the way down from JW. So touched.
Love this pic that Josh took!! SO SO pretty!!! He was pretty much my official photographer and one of the person who help me to contact people (: Big thanks!
So funny!!! My family got me a Tweety Bird cake!! Oh man..! Hahaha.. Long story of my childhood xP
I LOVE W331!!!!! They gave me the gorgeous ZARA jacket which I had my eyes on. Yes, I screamed like an insane person. But come on, ZARA!!! xD I did not expect it AT ALL. I LOVE THEM TONS!!!
Received a sexy tube dress from 480!! It has Maple written all over it xD But, me like! But... Whoah.. I haven't try it on yet, but it looks... Tight =
Rouxin, PB, Fuzhi, Cindy and a few others got me a very awesome bag from Topshop!! Ahhhh!
CLASS 5-3!!! The memories...
Haha. WRS! And they are all CHC-ians too! Woohoo!
Josh brought along his Wii set, and guess what, my mum liked it!! She is now so tempted to buy!!! I hope she caves in to the temptation =P
Party scene.
Aiyo, more Wii-ing! Lol.
My mum booked a small chalet at Costa Sands Resort at Pasir Ris. It looked really plain and crampy on the first day, but the next day, when my brother and future sis-in-law decorated the place, it looked lovely and sooo ME! Hahaha. Yeah, I like pink =P However, black AND pink. So yes, that is the theme of moi's party (: Hehes. And I insisted being princessy and got a real tiny tiara hairband. Though was bimbotic but so what, it was my day! =D Ahaha.
Me, 21!!!!
Meet my dearest party planner! Love you gor and owe you big time. Being in PR/mar comm, I promised him that I'll be his wedding planner. Muaha! The set designer! Aww... She gave me a bouqeut! Added to my royal day ^^
I like this pic with my dad (:
On my birthday night, we had a simple but yummy dinner at the Manhattan Fish Market.I was surprised and extremely touched by Dor and Ting. They actually blessed me with such a big gift! Or rather, gifts. We went shopping a day before my birthday and got me a really, really pretty black dress, earrings from River Island and shoes (yay). Love them!!! The next morning, went to the beach and walked with my grandmother, then had lunch with her. It was nice (: Hardly spend time with her. When I returned, I was stunned at how pretty the place has turned! It was beyond my expectations.

Party scene.
Aiyo, more Wii-ing! Lol. After showering and cleaning up, few of us headed down to the beach. It was lovely! I love the beach at night; stargazed, listened to the soothing waves and seeing the tide slowly coming in. Just admiring God's wonderful creation ((: Of course, we had fun nonsense-ing around and just chat randomly. The next day, rushed down for service to Expo, and PTL, Jing Ying came to service with us and she said the sinner's prayer!!!! A great birthday gift to me (: I'm gonna continue to keep her in prayer. After service, fellowshipped with Cindy, Tong, Ying and Joel at Bedok. The food was goooood. Then, hanged out with Ying till about 4.30pm. Had lots of fun with her. She's just uber humourous. Love her!
Had an unforgettable birthday...
Suddenly feel Your peace; no hesitation in surrendering at all. Am amazed and impressed at myself. Perhaps this is what living in complete faith feels like. Thank You for being my source of peace, for taking my burdens and for Your love for the past 21 years. The next 70 years, my life is Yours; trusting You wholly. At least the next five years, I believe, migthy and great things will come; Your promise and vision for me will come to pass and I will do great things for You.

Miaculously, my company's network did not deny me from uploading the photos; usually it does. So yay, with access free time on my hands, I can blog about the fun things last week (: Firstly, went to MIND Cafe with my lovely budds from my school to have a farewell thing for Ana, plus celebrate Ponco's 21st. It was nice to see people I haven't seen for quite some time, though not everyone could make it, and Hammond had to leave really early. Still, we had a blast =D I couldn't believe that some of them never played Taboo before O.o They got addicted to it later xD I have to say, we rocked at it xPP A bunch of Commies playing word-related games.. Muahah. But, the way Ponco played was super funny! He even used bahasa xD Lmao.
21!! Man, his mom's present to him is a vacation to New Zealand = *stunned* My goodness! That's a beyond awesome gift! He's there now.. Enjoying *envious*
Look at our cluttered table xD What civilised people! Lol.
Look at the card for Ana =D I'm so glad that I managed to scrap through and did it quite well =D Hehes, you know, my "arty-crafty" skill isn't one of my best attritbutes. Aww... I miss her already ): I hope she's fine there and not too lost or overwhelm by any culture-shcok... So sad that I couldn't send her off ):
The annual Valentine's Day!! Another great sermon by Pastor. Looking forward to know points 4 and 5. Wahah! Yayie, we all got a flower (: A real nice gesture from Benny. I played a part too. I gave everyone chocolates! Haha.. Well, let me confess and believe that this is my last Valentine of being single! Or, second last. HAHA. Amen!
Gave Rou a heart-shaped lolli; shows my much appreciate lurve to her ((:
SAMMY! Yeah, back finally! ^^
I miss this sexy kitten here >< Hahaha.. Yeah, Chris lookin' hot!!
Had a short fellowship with these lovelies here. Though I wished it was longer and that more people were there ): Okay we'll make it a point to crash to Elyn's place asap!
Then watched Valkyrie with Sammy. A remarkable movie! It has so much depth to it, plus based on a true story. And I always have a thing for history; it really intrigues me. Tom Cruise outdone himself. Great for him, as he has been doing mindless movies which don't showcase his acting skills. Haha, I like the word "Singapore" in the background, what a nice touch and how appropriate! Hahahas.Am still waiting for Cindy to upload the photos we took after CGM... Hehehe... Yeah, such coincidence that her birthday falls a day before mine!! Awesome! So yesterday, she invited many of us plus the leaders for a dinner at Ma Maison, Central. Its ambience is really, really romantic and cosy. A great place for a date! Haha. We had a blast last night, and Dy Highness looked so sweet and royalty ^^ Funnily, we have the same concept in our parties! Wahah! Great minds think alike =PP Yeah, can't emphasise how much fun we had laughing, I think we literally brought the restaurant down with thunderously loud laughter xD Chris and Josh missed out so much )): Anyways will upload the photos soon and talk more! (:

Realised that it's been nearly two weeks since my last post. Well, been packed with many, many things. Hardly get any rest, but I feel that I've been fruitful (:
Really want to thank God for this internship with SAFRA. Yes, though sometimes I dread working, as being a student totally rocks more (haha), but it is an opportunity which many of my classmates long for. And I am extremely thankful for this. I received so many open doors and tasks which I am able to use the talents that God has given to; they definately have added value into my portfolio, which was pretty non-existent. Yeah, with these experiences I have on my belt, I can have greater influence in the marketplace and be more blessed financially! In turn, I can bless others more and increase my giving capacity to Heavenly Dad! Man, a year more and work will be permanent, and I'll be a full-fleged working adult =\ My parents expect me to find a stable job once I graduate, however, I really, really, REALLY hope that by God's grace I can enter SOT in 2010... I truly desire that the vision I had will come to pass. If finances doesn't allow, I have to wait till 2011 then. But, by faith... *nod* Can't believe that my internship is ending in two-weeks time, and I'll be TWENTY-ONE this Friday!!!!!! *giant gasp* Wow... the big two-one. A year older means a level up in wisdom and a new chapter of my life.... ((: Wonder what God has in store for me, but, I believe there is more and they will be greater, plus, I can be mightier for Him! (((:
Many wonderful things have happened for the past couple of weeks, all thanks to God for His blessings, His love and His assurance. Firstly, I am SOOO happy and proud that I've attended four sessions of prayer meetings!!! *applause* It is a breakthrough for me, because I used to only attend three or less sessions, and yeah, that week was great. Felt God totally, receieved revelations upon revelations, soaked myself in His love, communed with the Holy Spirit, built up my inner Spirit-man. For the past week, I had to reach office earlier (make that "earliest") and complete my work with such speed and accuracy in order for me to leave work at 5.30pm to catch the bus to Riverwalk. Seriously, my office is so annoyingly ulu! Very inconvenient as the bus takes ages to come ): *breathe... two more weeks* Hahas. But yeah, how I wish there can be prayer meetings everyday (: Received a confirmation on the vision I had from God on Tuesday's leaders meeting, and tears just began to pour. One of Pastor Kong's favourite phrase was from the movie, Spiderman - "with power comes great responsibility". Cheesy, I know xD But, it is true. And I totally agree... Sometimes, the responsibility can feel so heavy and burdened. Also, received some harsh discipling on one of the days. Yes, I admit I was troubled and affected by it, still, I know it was purely out of love and expectations on me. Regardless, I shall fight on and continue to serve Him (:
On Thursday, SAMMY IS FINALLY, FINALLY BACK HOME!!! *thunderous cheer* Disappointly, yet as expected, my parents disallowed me from going to pick him up at the airport, as it was too late. Anyways, called him and it was awesome to hear his voice. Hours later, we met up after morning prayer meeting (again, proud of myself that I woke up, though I was late >< still, I would have kicked myself if I miss that session, because Ps. Meng actually ministered to the congregation, and man, Holy Spirit's power was overwhelming). For a minute, I couldn't spot him in the auditorium, and once I did, just ciong-ed to him and gave him a big, giant, warm, full-of-love hug! Along with seeing his horrendous hair D: Man, it was BAD! Looked like a bowl xPP Glad that he cut it in the daytime before meeting the rest of his new cell members. I mean, his image would have been tarnished xD Lol. Yeah, he finally met Cindy in person, plus some others and fellowshipped over breakfast at Second Best. Yes, yes, I acted like a spoilt brat and wanted an atas breakfast at Mac. Aww.. I was so pampered. He treated me! Then fellowshipped till rather late and yeah, I dragged myself unwillingly to work afterwhich. I soo wanted to talk to him for hours and hours. But, there is always the next day (which, he was late, and we did not lunch together, and he had a cheeseburger on the bus on our way to church. Tsk tsk, he's loading himself up with fastfood). So yes, saw him on Sat in church, and felt... Weird! Haha.. It's been six months. But, Sunday's outing with half of W331-ians were whole lot of fun! Though all of them had plans and had to cut short the fellowship, it meant we could have our first movie together! Wahaha. Like we said, first of many to come. Akan datang! Hahahas. Suddenly got reminded by that funny moment when we bumped into Tong. Man... Embarrasing moment... Lol. Oh yeah, saw JH gor gor, wow, he was wearing a Ralph Lauren shirt. Waahhh... Uber atas xDD Everyone has changed.
I still have tons and tons to talk about!!!! So much to add on to my fellowship with Sammy; Ana's farewell party cum Ponco's 21st celebration at MIND cafe; Valentine's; my cell pre-celebrating my 21st... Plus, all the photos we took. Alright, I shall stop slacking here and get back to work >< Tonight, I shall upload all the pretty photos and talk more... That is, if I'm not too tired. But, I'm excited about our second official connect-group outing later! Yes, at MIND (you must be thinking I am crazy), but the rest, apart from Rou never been there. So yeah, will have fun later =DD

Had a great weekend of fun with my family and W480. On 31st Jan, it was my grandmother's 68th birthday! Two more years and it's time to make it a grand celebration for her (: Well, this year, as always, it was a simple one like she requested. But an occasion like such calls for good food which satisfy my tummy. So rushed down after an awesome service by Pastor Kong and joined my family. We went to a Thai-Chinese seafood place at Yishun. Nice and sinful, as always..
"We are ageing! ARGH!"
Preping the Yushen
More preping...
Again, huat ah!! Big money, big money xDD
It was fun celebrating with my still rather new cell. It is events like this that we can get to know each other more and grow closer. All thanks to Rou!! ((: After eating, we headed down to the bowling alley, and we saw three monitor screens with "RESERVED EMMA" and we laughed our heads off!!! Yes, Emma refers to Rouxin!! Lol. Sounded so bimbotic xDD We are a bunch a easily-amused people xD Hey, like me! =D
Guess what?? I had such a breakthrough!!! I actually scored 78 for my first game!!!! I used to score like 41 XD I have come a long way. Whaha! So proud of myself!
Oh, saw this super, duper, uber adorable little boy playing around at the bowling centre. He's so so so cute!!! Angela and I went crazy over how cute he was. His parents were nice too, allowed us to play with him. I couldn't resist but I had to take a photo with him. Angela did too! Lol.
Angela and Jiancong says he looks like my son!!! O.O Hahaha.. I don't mind my future son looking so cute =P
"We are ageing! ARGH!"
On Sunday, Rou planned a different cgm which is more fun and bonded us. She booked a treehouse-hut kind of thing at the Civil Service Clubhouse at Bukit Batok. I like the place alot! We were like surrounded by nature and God's beautiful creation. We 'laoed' Yushen, and it was the same Yushen that I had from Sakae Sushi. One blunder we made was sooo funny. We all commented with disappointment that it was too dry. After we are done, I helped to clear, then, lo and behold, I found the source of what caused the dryness of the yushen. There was another container of sauce!! Instead of two, we only poured one! Lol!!! A bunch of blur people xDD Besides Yushen, everyone played their part and brought food. Was so glad that Angela's friend, Mike joined us. He has become so open to church and has been very regular! Praise God for that!

CNY 2009
It is another round of CNY, ushering in the year of the Ox. How time flies... Well, as always, a SOP is to visit my Ah Po's house first. But this year is the first year since her death. So, it wasn't exactly a celebration, meaning no ang baos... Aww... It's an undeniable fact that receiving ang baos is one of the highlight of the festive season =P It is a privilege for us singles. So yes, cam-whored alot, as always...
Such a "far-away" picture. Haha. Took it by one of our young cousin. But it manage to show what us, the beauties were wearing =P
My gor gor and Lynn, the cousin whom we are the closest to in the Ow family.
She's bubbly, nice and very, very humourous. Haha.
Our photographer, Amanda. She was trying on oversized shoes. Lol.
Can't believe that my gor was emplyoed as an air-steward with Malaysia Airlines. Hahaha. God's grace xP No lar, he's a charmer, just ask my future sister-in-law.
Aww... My favourite photo!! This is Sarah Grace (Wahah, great women with the great name). She's the newest addition to the family, and the youngest of course. So, so, SO adorable. Just want to squeeze her cheeks. You are looking at a future gambling queen. Tsk tsk tsk =P
Finally, after many, many, many years, the Choo family has pt aside the family feud, and we met up. They are my Grandaunts and Granduncle; and the two young men on the left are apparently my Uncles o.O I know what you must be thinking... Uber young Uncles xD
Another of my Granduncle and Grandaunt; and yes, the one on the left is Uncle Kevin. Haha. He's got to be my favourite Uncle so far. He's really eloquent, witty, intelligent and funny. He'll be getting married in Jan 2010, yay, more weddings to attend to xD
Grandaunt Christina
Grandaunt Carol
Huat ah!! (Hahaha, learnt it from Sammy and Josh. Lol) I've got to comment, it was the best Yushen I've had so far. Of course, it is rather pricy, as it is from Sakae Sushi. But, it totally is worth the amount we paid for. Very, very yummy!
Steamboat ^^ Josh... I left the cover at your place =
Another wonderful thing this CNY was that we got to see the photos of my maternal Great-grandparents. This is my Great-grandfather. Good-looking (:
My Great-grandma... She was so beautiful... 
Him along with all my Granduncles and aunts. My Grandma is the one at the top left. A pretty young lady (:
