12 more days to SOT....! It's such a mixed feeling... I definitely am so looking forward to it, and can't wait to be in the presence of God everyday (: To have encounter with Him, receive revelations. I have even listed down the things I want to achieve out of SOT and I'm sure that my visions shall come to pass. Though my finances may seem like it is impossible for me to pay the fees at all, but I confess that my God is my Jehovah Jireh and He shall supply all my needs! Indeed, He is a God who never fails, never disappoints. I can sense deep in my veins and soul and my breakthrough will come and that He will do a miracle for the $1.8k. I'm going to give to building fund next Saturday, and I know that as I sacrifice and give unto God's house out of love and obedience, going to choir practice week after week and serving in choir, He shall reward me and pour out such blessings that I can't contain them. Faith is the substance of things not seen, and without faith, it is impossible to please God. So yes, I am living by faith and not fear. All fears and worries, begone from me! You have no power over me! But God, He can do wondrous things. For He can do exceedingly abundantly in all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. And I believe that His grace is sufficient for me. Not forgetting that all things work together for good unto those who love Him and to those who are called according to His purpose.
Heavenly Father, you know that I love you and You are the reason that I'm laying aside my life for the next six months; it is all for your kingdom's cause. For it is Your will for me to go this year, and let all things work together for good.... (:
I love You no matter what, and I will be still and know You are God.

I'm 22!
It has been 4 days since I turned 22! As a 21-year-old, I did not feel much difference... But I have to admit that this year, I could feel some changes. I can sense that being 22 onwards, I will take on bigger responsibilities, especially this being the year that I will officially say goodbye to being a student and be a full-fledged working ADULT! I always jokingly, or rather, semi-seriously whine about growing older; however, now, I embrace that fact and I look forward to sclae to greater heights, overcome challenges and aim to accomplish the purposes God has already planned for my life... I am excited about being an adult! I am no longer a child, so got to leave my childish ways behind. Moreover, I'm sure God will mould me and reveal to me my destiny through SOT; I can't emphasised any further on how excited I am ((:
22: I will have double the annointing, double the happiness, blessings and be doubly pretty! =D
22: I will have double the annointing, double the happiness, blessings and be doubly pretty! =D

February is coming to an end in a week and a half's time! Looking back at the past month since the year began, and the goals I have set in the beginning of 2010, it was really a period of trial and me running away from God's calling.
Now that I decided to obey His calling and just go ahead to SOT by faith, I know deep down that it is the right thing no matter how impossible things may seem. But truly, God creates miracles and He makes the impossible, possible. My boss allows me to work on a half-day basis for six months! Furthermore, things are getting better; I am getting busier and even begin writing articles for his new internet marketing business. Indeed, not only I have an income while in SOT, I will have a job that I enjoy (: Those articles can even be part of my portfolio! I'm just so excited and I know in my heart that the next six months will be one of the best times in my life!
Yes, I will be stretched -- physically, mentally and emotionally. But it will be all worth it. I'm sure that when I graduate from SOT, I will emerge stronger and victorious. Through His strength and grace, I will be able to conquer both work and school, along with SOT. I keep visioning myself being such a testimony and a vessel for Him to showforth His glory (:
Tis the season of sowing [and reaping]! Building fund in a week's time! I am really looking forward to it (: Financial hindrances, go away!!!!! No matter what, I WILL and WANT to fulfill my vow! I will keep giving no matter what and I WILL reap a bountiful harvest in no time! I just sense in my heart that blessings after blessings will come. All the desires of my heart will come true and my dream job awaits in September 2010.
Turning 22 in 3 days time... Such a pivotal moment and a turning point... It shall be the beginning of a great destiny and journey (:
I lay down my life for You... One word, and I will follow.

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

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 (:
