Just take it easy
And celebrate the malleable reality
Nothing is ever as it seems
This life is but a dream

thanksgiving /10:38 AM

last night during cell, we were sharing 3 or more things that we'd thank God for, this 2007.

Here's a look into mine..

1) A uni course that i never thought i'd never like and that was too mainstreamed. Somehow, it grew on me and i'm starting to like and enjoy it.

2) New uni friends

3) Old friends whom's there to share my life's journey together (you know who you are ppl)

4) A simply great cell whom each and everyone has been very encouraging

5) Home Cell. Ditto =)

6) Mom

7) A laid back holiday which i can actually find time for myself to indulge in my reading & crafting hobbies

8) a cosy enough room where i can snuggle in for the whole day (albeit a rather messy state now. hee)

9) IKEA at tampines! (swedish meatballs!)

10) My tuition kid, the source of my pocket money.
11) Daryl's guitar, otherwise i wounldnt even be practicing

12) My Thailand trip with mom =)
13) Relatives. Aunts, uncles and cousins alike. All very caring and yes, funny.
14) Rain Camp, for getting to know the youth and having a closer walk with God =)

15) Joel, for simplying being the loving, caring bf

16) Everything and everyone. Somehow things will always fall in place in the end..

Yup! that's about it for now.

Christmas is just in a few days time and i'm so looking forward to it. I hoping to see miracles and many salvations this christmas season.

Just yesterday, Joel and I went for chrismas shopping and we ended up on a book spree at borders for ourselves amongst the other presents we got. Some of my fav books were on a 3 for the price of 2 sale, a good buy that i couldnt pass for. So after idling at the store for an hour or so, i bought 3 novels and Joel bought a Grisham book. Woot! That will keep me occupied for the coming weeks. I'm almost done with my nineteen minutes already people! Definitely a good read that i'd recommend.

My lil Christmas project...

Joel came over to help me add the final touches and eveloped them, ready to be given out later today and tomorrow =))

Alrightys, will be having a christmas gathering with the ODACians at robin's place in a couple of hours time! Better get going and prepare my stuffs. Adieus ppl!

And Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS! God Bless..

Got this from mong's blog. Enjoy.

the old people /8:29 PM

Hello once again good people.

This week has been practically spent on catching up with old friends, and basically reminiscing the old o'times. Met with with fred and fishy on wednesday, and then robyn and fred on thurs and karthi on friday and the class of s19 on saturday. It feels so good to be hanging around with these 'old' people again.

On wednesday..

At HMV looking for fred's heavy metal magazine. I'm so convinced it's sucidal. He insist otherwise.

-_-'

Us outside Paragon where like us, the whole throng of orchard people hoard the christmas tree for photo taking.

Fred and Fishy. Fred morphing into a gay!!

Fishy and I doing the bimbotic pose

You'll never catch fred without pictures like this.

Dont ask. We were supposed to be reindeers. Fred's idea. (...)

3 of us at Taka's Tree this time.

The streets of orchard you'll find fellas like this (i dont know what you call them) in still-mode. I dared fred to pose exactly like him. Hahaha.

At the streets of town when all the malls are closing, you've nothing much left to do except roam and take stupid photos.

Presenting you Mr Wilfredina the Ballerina!

On Thursday...

Dinner at Marche with Robyn and Fred

Me and Robyn

Robyn and Fred

3 of us

After dinner at Marche, we headed for hagen daz for ice cream. I felt hungry still and suggest CHILLI CHEESE FRIES at superdogs!! We ended up having a hotdog each as well.

At the end of it, I still had room enough for uhh desert and fred kept laughing in a way he can't believe it. you don't know how much a cow eats

On Friday...

Lunch with Karthi at the Village

You can barely see him in the dark.. HAHAHAHHA okay i'll stop

I forced him to take this. They actually had a playground at the backend of Village and we went to check it out. Ended up cam whoring. =x

And then he forced me to take this

Imitating the cow

He cant take still pictures!

Taking silly photos..

Baby Chairs!

On Saturday...

Dinner at swensens with the class of s19! =)

Fred the MONKEY now

Fred with his all sorts now.

EARL TAN trying to be uh... ultraman. seriously, the guys haven't changed... hahahs

All of us =))

Me and ShuYi

The guys.

And then the girls felt like chilling out and we ended up at my place, playing upwards in my small claustrophobic room. Hahahs. Zhi was the only guy cause the rest went to find their other half.

Huiping, ShuYi, Wency

Upwords, a game synonymous to scrabble, with the stacking. Its been forever since all of us played board games already

Deep in thought..

Shuyi, apparently the smartest player. Her English is like WOAH MAN...

random shot. having fun.

after 3 rounds and a speck of brain juice left, we decided on a round of singlish and anything but english. After alot of hokkien and what not, the end of the game looks pretty much like this. I wonder where JUON came from.. hahahahs. good fun that night.

This holiday has been the slackiest ever and I feel almost guilty for that. No agendas, no schoolwork to worry about, no work, I'm practically free to do almost anything i want; which is basically just relaxing, taking time for myself to have a good read for the hols, having a closer walk with the Lord, BHC-ing, feasting, meeting people and alot of naps. Which brings me to the point. I have days where my daily routines goes from eat. read. sleep. repeat. I feel so guilty for being such a bummer BUT it's been what i was hoping to do since school started so I'll take that as a treat! However, oddly enough, i tend to doze off after reading Nineteen Minutes after every few pages, i'm only halfway through. I'll probably take months to finish the book at this rate.

So anyway, Joel will be back on tuesday! Like FINALLY! I can't wait to hold him in my arms again.. He sent a letter back to his family and i had one too, with a polariod picture of him and his bunk mates. It made my day... x)

Rain Camp /12:27 PM

hello Good People.

The weekend for me has been great. Attended YPM 'Rain Camp'. Was apprehensive initially, about the gang not being there due to their various commitments, upcoming exams and all. But it was all good in the end and definitely an eye opener. God never fails and provided me with the wonderful companionship of 3 girls, Sophia, RuiWen, and Celest, throughout the camp and many lil kids in the cell to look over. Got to know more about the youth zone and i did this mental comparison with the young adult zone and realised how different it was in a way it was less formalized. It makes me feel old and young all at the same time. Old in a way i'm no longer classified as youth and in ways i find it cute how the girls talk about stuffs such as boys and bgr. i realised i used to have those same sort of parlance. Young in ways simply just by hanging with them.

Anyhow, the camp was all good. I realised how weak and how I'm pratically nothing without His love and grace. I had always knew it as if by theology but never actually felt it. Last night, i poured out my heart and felt it. Being someone who sometimes have an aversion of pouring out my feelings peferring to mask it over hoping it'd eventually die out, it definitely felt good last night. I've come to realised that sometimes i can get too lazy to even verbalised my real thoughts, preferring to keep it to just a minority of unjudgemental close friends. I wonder if it's just me.

His unlimited love, grace and extended friendship i now understand and truely feel.

Anyway, life of late, I've been torn between hanging out with certain cliques. Like-minded friends and friends whom well..., consider you as part of the group even though you guys have nothing much in common actually. And I've realised how 'drifting' away by not turning up for certain gatherings and opting out for your closer friends could actually signal the wrong meaning that you actually can't be borthered to maintain the friendship. I'm not quite sure what to do or what to say in ways it doesn't offend.. Just hope all would be well and none of this taken too seriously...

I'll bring You more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what You have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart

I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
All about You, Jesus
I'm sorry, Lord, for the things I've made it
When it's all about You
All about You, Jesus

Realise by Colbie Caillat /11:42 PM

Somehow this has became a earworm of late. I know how boring it gets when people are increasingly posting youtube videos on their blogs, BUT this is a special case because it's simply to nice to miss it. I love Colbie Caillat and how her songs are so simple yet fetching (not forgeting all time fav -bubbly). Makes me kinda mellow listening to it. So guys, listen it. Enjoy.
