thk You God, i lost my HP and LEarnt a v.IMPt and Valuable lesson

I cannot take things for granted... IT IS REALLY TIME i WAKE, wake UP. I am no longer younger and can 'waste' time, effort and money in stuff. Whatever I am doing, it is to be WHOLEHEARTEDLY. Not by words, but by actions. And if God calls me to stay/ persevere, I must bite the bullet and learn the lesson- to Change /stay and endure.

Save. And also NOT be careless, to always keep my things in order. Remember to do it and work hard tis New year 2008.

I cannot be the same again. Carpe Diem !

try to decode tis - if i cant tink of whether Spore Hokkien Mee, Ipoh Hor Fun or watever, i take sushi =0) anyways...

something my fren shared after she returned fr. her trip...

Hokkaido is very nice. I just went there in Oct. A., do try the soya butter ramen @ sapporo's ramen yokocho and of cos the famous seafood. Uni (sea urchin) is so cheap compared to here. And you can try for free at the fish mkt. Can also try the sapporo/kirin brewery's bbq. I had free flow of snow crabs there. Also Honeydew is super sweet, you gotta try. Yum yum... I think you'll be able to catch the winter ice sculptures when you go. If you have more time to go around, do rent a car and drive to the nearby Noboribetsu (just 1 hr drive), can enjoy the famous hot spring and beautiful scenary. Lake Toya (near to noboribetsu) is also beautiful but i don't think the boat rides and fireworks are available in winter. Otaru (also 1 hr drive away) is very romantic. Sushi is famous there. You should definitely check out Otaru's day & night and make a music box while you are there Rem to get one of those famous raisins biscuits by rokkatei (http://www.rokkatei.co.jp/top.html) at airport as souvenirs, Japanese love them a lot. I was impressed by their GPS system. You can just enter the telephone number of the destination and the GPS will guide you there!

Operation 101207; etc etc.

I celebrated thy 12th yr anniversary tis Dec as a child of God and was really HaPPy.

Realz. Right-non-stop fr. end Nov till 09 Dec, i was rushing... managed to rush a couple of stuff at work (not tat i v. diligent hor... got backlog for the days i was lazing... yucks!), had my Dance ministry assessment (tho' i really didn't do excellently) -i enjoyed tremendously... , celebrated my 12th anniversary by resting at Rasa Sentosa (whoppeee!), ran the Std Chart 10km and went Ritz Carlton hotel haha - a fren's wedding, and helped in a fren's wedding - also did a little Chinese message preaching. WOW.
Siong. Bzbzbzz. ........

Now rested.

The little Op. i went for was a success. NO pain, NO fear, NO glitches. The nurses were great. The nurse in charge tat day - Ms Helen was so nice, she ministered to my needs and 'talked sense' with my mum - tat she shd let me play. Which I did, before the Op. Heheee (i went out for makan, Movie, shopping and chat w new frens).

When the Op. was over, i also realised HOW GREAT my mum is. She worked - and did all hsework by herself. Great mum. Virtuous lady. Powerful spirit within.
She shd rest.
I hv been resting.

Watched Cars, Ratatouille, Charlotte's WEb, The Bourne Ultimatum, High Sch Musical II, Happily Never After, etc. Me really had an overdose of cartoons and shows !

AND, The result is out - benign. And for the rrestttt i hv been having, i still 'complained' - shame on me. I was almst bored to tears yest. 14 DEC. But thk God, finally did some clearing of Office emails and talked to colleagues.

Also had been MSN-ing my new frens in church...
Wat else...

O yes, the luxury of resting after Op. includes two very relaxing-hairwash done by others. They call it Wash and Blow.
haha. =p

And, sneaked out of hse today based on the 'fact of need' for a Wash & Blow. Then, met two 19yrs old young ladies for chat, lunch and Word Study. Love seeing both of them... They are cheery... and helped me (i) buy lunch; (ii) carried my Christmas goodies. (God is gd; held the rain, and I managed to buy all the gifts which i wanted... required and sort of completed the 'list') !
We managed to share, and also feelllowship wif their fren Xinyi. =0) Thk God for them, so sweet, got me flowers ! AND yes, thk God for Christel, my super-nice and fren-cum-colleague who visited me at home yest. and bought me a fufilling-nutritious gift! THKS a lot !

SEE you all soon, ladies, frens and chums. =0)
Now, more resting and MSN... HMMM......mmm... definitely a time of Word and music in God's presence as well tis season. Victorious end to 2007 and welcoming 2008, my Sabbath already begun...

Cheers !

Wear warm and drink suff. water for those who are always on the GO !
Hohoho, Christmas is coming... =p

some pictures..... beautiful ladies.. haha and guys. Description is in next posting








Hi all.....
my frens on the trip !

Batam 2007

Batam trip with singlessss from the church.... hahahaa


Hi there....
if u are looking at my blog this time - u will be surprised. Coz I am gg to post some pics from my recent Batam trip.

Honestly, there were doWn down moments and Up up up moments (hehe, u can sense which is more - down or Up) !

Well, the pics tell little.

Throughout the week leading to the trip, I was excited. Excited somehow with peace, as I knew God had something gd in store. Not so much of bgr/romancing etc.etc. but somehow something GOOD.
Now I noe what it is. He had PLANNED to release me from all my past hurts (as in a closure), mindsets from past experience, Old ways of handling my emotions and Antique way of grooming and change in communication wif guys haha.

In short, I really appreciated God for sending me on this trip (tho' I was >gan cheong< - worried abt some stuff and being 'viewed as desperate' and being there among a group of boring pple hahahahaah dun tell them).

I felt refreshed, totally transformed in my mind, and a big breakthru' where I can care more for my sisters and appreciate ladies, AND being non-competitive :learning to encourage & provide sisters wif opportunities with the bros.

Hmm..... there's lotsa more I can share, but I reserve my secrets wif the Conversation wif God, the Maker of all Life and definitely the Maker of my Love Story to Come.

Well, for all of you who wish to noe if I met anybody special, well, I really wana say, I do meet a lot of special pple -guys, and ladies. AND more imptly...... I really found more security in myself, my worth, WHO I AM, my attributes, Talents.....(popping out slowly as pple affirm) AND..... learnt to listen more and speak less....yes, to be so; Lastly, need to pause & communicate properly.

I go there to be refreshed, and expecting quite little. I return being v. refreshed (not tat i slept a lot) and found that the process begun and accomplished this - a BIG breakthrough > so impt. for a lady and her heart.

Thk U pastors and all the organisers ! And the lovely sistas and brothers.

I am insufficient and weak, BUT God is good and rich and a God of all foresight and wisdom.
Cheers ! And i really wana say this " a thousand accomplishments begin with a single step "

Courage ladies !
I faced the fear of being single and growing older..... the 'dream' of marriage seems far away. HAHaaaaa LOL.
But..... God proved otherwise.

Through the downs, difficult moments, I finally stood firm and realised I needed to be alone -as in happily single and NOT rush into anything and BE happy.

I did tell Him all my frustrations, difficulties, fears and negative thots.

To be happily single - surrender is the 1st step of decision... and MORE IMPTLY, trust Him. HE WILL NOT PLAY WITH LIFE NOR HAPPINESS....esp. the happiness - future of a lady and her heart.

when the heart is not at rest...

I watched the movie "A WALK TO REMEMBER" last nite
the movie starring Mandy Moore and Shane West.

The show inspires me to live... and today, as i looked at my colleagues, i asked " what would I be doing ?"

God, how shd I save and work towards my dreams ?
Also, to plan or pray that everythg would 'link' together...

Monday, October 22

i still believe...

guess the transition from breaking to enduring to healing to recovery and faith's represents everything this yr....sooOoooo

Saturday, October 20

I received the 'revelation'

This morning, when I awoke, I hv this impression - don't cry for your past/ your wasted yrs/ your incapabilities. Instd look towards the future, smile and help others.


Indeed just last week, I was eating with three frens and I told them that I wished that I was twenty yrs old again. After going through some much 'mistake-pain-significance-finding-no confidence-then redemption' process, I know that is the year (period) which I started not living my life purposely and wisely. On the outside, I look good. I talk better, think faster, dress betta, eat better and danced in a ministry... Yet the hole in my heart was there, the gap in my mind was there. I was in a period of wilderness - lost from God and not knowing what to do, doing things wrong, having thoughts of depression and negativity.

If I cld live my life again, indeed I would want to be twenty yrs old and start afresh fr. then.

Haha, but that day when I told my three frens that, I realised it was quite positively shared. Indeed as I realised twenty yrs old was the point when I started going 'downhill', now I hv eight (oops?!) yrs of 'experience' to share with people whom God places in my life, that I was silly, unwise, indulgent in the wrong things and pursuely all my desires... leaving God out of the picture.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------At tis point in time, I wana share why people who used to know God don't know God now, OR don't seem to know God or want to know God...
'cos it is difficult, difficult in this world of 'visuals', fast life, money-centred societies and problems in personal relationships.
etc.etc.

Wasn't helpful if at the point of loss and lostness, there was nobody to support, pray with, and worst, a lot of pain within without an answer.

It was not easy for all of us, unless and until we know we can continuously run back to God, to 'press' Him for an answer, to ask Him why and how we should live.

Perseverance with faith is the ingredient that is birthed. No matter how 'ugly' we may feel or INSIGNIFICANT we feel abt ourselves being a silly/struggling christian, that is a true feeling of being transformed (*pause*) INSIDE-OUT.

2 Corinthians 4
and chapter 2 as well
[www.biblegateway.com]


Why ask God ?
Becoz when we first came to know Him, we know He has the particular answer for the/that particular area(s) in our lives, or simply we know He is God - He created and sustained everything.

The WORd of God reveals every matter in truth and evergreen wisdom plus realness in all times. Even when we though feel like it, it is truth that sets us free indeed...

Do NOT let the FEARS which come cripple you. THE fear of God is NOT a fear that cripples, it is not a Fear WITHOUT purpose, without understanding, that causes you to leave Him. How to explain ???
It is NOT a fear of things, of drawing near to Him, fear of a God of punishment...

Hmm... it is difficult for me to explain. Somewhat an illustration is this :
say you are BUYING a bowl of Noodles, the seller asked you to pay $3.00, you only have $2.80 (or even $2.70 - whatever), but you just want to eat... then you try ur 'luck' and asked. If the seller says ok, you are v. surprised; however, if the seller says no, you understand.

It may not be a good illustration, but WHat I am TRYING to say is this - God is God indeed, He judges (as He prevails the justice, forms the Laws of Right and Wrong) and He protects, He Leads, He Counsels, the 'battles of life' He fights for us; He is Love, etc.etc.

How can we know Him totally when we shun away becoz we dun get wat we want from Him ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


Ok, back to my silly, unwise living for the past eight yrs.
As I count my blessings this morning and regain my significance -self and identity as a child of God, I knw I can thank so many people besides God.

I thank my DAD
my MUM
my BROTHERS (they r my younger brothers) who help me to grow up and be more mature)
my AUNTS
my UNCLES
my FRENZzzzzz

the ones (my desires) whom I fell in 'love' with, the experience as frens with them taught me that I was un-loving, selfish, immature and socially inadequate.

THE LOVE WHICH GOD HAS FOR ME and HIS PEOPLE's CARE FOR ME in my life taught me to re-learn being a person -from being unable, insufficient and unloved, o yes - & being bitter, (with weaknesses) to one being friendly, more confident, MATURE, ENDURING, PATIENCE, more loving and gentle.

God changed my thought pattern from negative to a perspective and positivity AND emotional life into a healthy one.
I believe the etc.etc. will come.

I dare not talk too much now. But I am believing God for more, more to come for many yrs (He knows how many yrs). STEP by STEP, DAY by DAY.
He has tested me in many areas, dunoo for wat, but I guess it is going to be revealed day by day.

[o yes, He also taught me NOT to be Extreme - by thinking too much (PREDICTING too much), wanting to ACHIEVE A LOT overNIGHt... even caring too much & Not Knowing how to Rest... being slow at work etc.etc.]


I am NOT perfect, weak, YET His GRACE is SUFFICIENT for mE. He is a miracle worker. Haha, and my fren shared this > when I cannot SEE the HAND of GOD; I should TRUST HIS HEART.

I would like to speak to my father abt God's goodness...

I am not a good daughter, as in the kind my parents would like me to be...
They are very traditional Chinese parents.
I hope that they will come to know God personally as Lord and Saviour one day SOON !!!
=0)

They love me, I love them too... Hope dear dad opens his heart to Jesus !

misunderstanding... misunderstood

Dear diary,

I decided to blog abt one incident which happened tis yr.

In the midst of my fear - fear of gg out with a guy alone, I asked two frens out with me to meet him. Yet I was not able to express my fear. Instead, told them I wana meet up....... and before the guy came, told one of them that I wld like to introduce a new fren to her.
Hmm... she is probably happily attached now.

Not long ago, she started to speak less with me... we have drifted apart. Maybe she will never get to know the truth behind the incident.
But I blog this... hope it 'flies to her somehow' in her spirit/ dream, that it was a misunderstanding from the beginning and a mistake made by me to not tell her beforehand... Misunderstanding as I believe that it was the reason why she distanced from me, and also she misunderstood me that I 'made use' of her. No, I never had the intention too.

When the guy asked to watch a show, I also declined coz she needed to go home. Actually, what happened that nite was, he asked me out for a simple dinner, I asked two gal frens along. Since he was not sure of any feelings for me, better for me not to see him one-to-one so often...

But the other gal fren 'R' couldnt make it due to class, and I did not want to let fren gal misunderstd that I 'tua' her and not meet.

Anyways, all misunderstandings are in God's Hand... even though I do plan, He is in charge as well.

I do put my gal frens before guys. Ever since 5plus yrs ago when I did make a real bad error to 'diu bu qi' my good sista-fren S. then.

I noe gal frens shd come first, no matter wat, coz they hv also supported u thru' difficult times.

grOwing up ... ... ...

Ha I am at it again.
Today was a quite jia-lat day at work. Yups. Hv suffered under the 'tired body' and gastric flu... then went bck to work soon. On Wed (right after the 1-day MC), I dragged myself out of bed. And now, today, the 2nd day after MC and bck at work, I cld feel much resistance frm my body !

But still v. happie to be back at work. Thk God tat I hv strength to do the different tasks. Also thk God as I feel myself persevering more.

Indeed in the period of growing up, I hv much to contend with, becoz I am such a 'childish' person who is 28yrs old and yet to be one in reality. I was trapped for some yrs thinking tat pple are always criticising me, esp. my own parents. Of coz, I am really a gd person, seeking improvement always - but somewhat and somehow not mature; not humble.

Tonite is my 3rd nite at home, continously in a week. Tis is not usual ! Ha, and it has been my personal weakness to be out of home for a few nights, sometimes five nites in a week. It is probably the reason why I fell ill quite easily at times.

I do do housework, like cleaning, washing and cooking... but seldom becoz I am busy. LOL. Big excuse... =0) but it is true lah. I am too tired to do all of those. Basic washing yes, but washing and cooking less.

These few days, I had more time at home, did more washing and watched my mum cook. She and my dad really appreciate these moments of eating dinner together. My mum is very homely and fiercely loyal to the family and diligent in housework.

It's been a pleasure to be at home and talk to them more. I tink there is really a TIME FOR EVERYTHING. I appreciate the times now where I hv rest and moments of leisure. Not rushing abt outside, not tiringly going past people... my home is a shelter. LOL, I am learning to be more ladylike and feminine. Already got a mini advice and 'shock' from my father, yes, my own father. So, from today, his words matter even more. (Just two yrs ago, he did mention he was worried for me.) To take note of all advice, I am also more careful and gentler with my words.

And yes, I begin to think of my future home, my future family, my future partner.
I pray that the person whom God will bless me with will indeed come soon ! And he will love God, and both of us will build a strong and warm family together.

Really wana thk God !

I really thk God for the frens who showed concern.
And thank God for saving my life.

Literally fell asleep while driving... thk God that I did not get into an accident, nor harm anybody and the car was slightly damaged.
Jia lat is I got my brother and father and mother into worry and lost the $ to repair.

I was shocked, mentally & emotionally tired and physically v.tired.

Muz say NO to activities and extra stuff. Need to REST. SLEEp.R.E.S.T.

* no driving when tired
* no driving when in a mad rush
* no super-human behavior unnecessary
* no pleasing efforts to gain humans' approval or attention

wat else...

* yes to treasuring life
* yes to 'keeping my eyes closed' to politics and insincere frens
* yes to resting at home
* yes to 'pampering' myself with some foods, BUT not all the sweet stuff !

I hv gained weight so quickly recently, as u can see...
ha


Ciao. TTYL.

my dance, my work, myself ! =p

as you noe now.... ... i write a lot and share a lot. LOL.

keke

I am v.tired these days, really stretched at work and at home. And dance...haa

WORK is increasing in volume and everyday is a busy-busy mode. BUT it is good, finally I am growing up, learning to do work quietly and quicker. I hv to learn to deal with difficult customers and also manage my time to reply to emails (priority, priority), 'fight-fire' for some emergency work situations, meet tenants, negotiate-negotiate, do reports ... At home - Action SPEAKS LOUDER than WOrds... finally learning that. Yup, learnt it the HARD way, when I lost something impt., then I realised I lacked the love and perseverance to wait and pray, yes for my family, my parents.

AND, i learnt to accept my weaknesses, being slow and also get rid of stubbornness... learning to really listen and not rush.
Not rush to do stuff or try to find some way out. NOT hating the person i see in the mirror and not blaming others for the things gone wrong.
God justifies and does want me to forgive, incl. forgiving myself when I made the wrong decision.

God is really changing me becoz it is Time ! =0)

oya oya, my dance....... it is a ministry, and God used it to change me (becoz i really love dance, i persevered). He used dance to release me from stress and also through the dance ministry helped me to love and care for others.

AND, to learn NOT to be proud nor be ashamed of being slow (contradictory ? no, i felt the two feelings in a same period). Indeed, I am not perfect, and I no longer strive to please others nor do EVERYTHING possible FOR GAINING APPROVAL and ATTENTION. I have to say these as they are true feelings I had gone thru' and had to reconcile within myself. It was and is a BREAKthrougH. Whew I survived...yeah.....
Great....
(if you need a listening ear for issues, can try to tell me, i do hv a gift of counselling. I will say no if I cannot help or hv no time to do so - as God is teaching me to rest too)

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Good nite...

CopieD fr. a Fren.....Footprints

....The Sand
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the LORD.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it, "LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way.But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life,there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me."
The LORD replied, "My son, my precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you." - Mary Stevenson


----------------------------
Who can forget this classic story of God's unfailing love for us? Watching the sight of father and son walking hand-in-hand in the warm sunset, across the softest sand, towards the magnificent ocean just makes you stop to admire all of God's wondrous creations and to think of all the precious people in our lives who are always there behind us, supporting us in ways we might not see: our sweet Lord, loving family, quiet friends...

Etching the images of moments like these deep in our hearts and minds keeps us going strong in tough times and reminds us that life is too beautiful and dear to waste a single minute on frustration, sorrow, worry or anger. Instead, take that minute to bring yourself back to the precious moment you hold close to your heart that never fails to put a smile on your face. Return to that moment, remember the emotions, recharge your spirit.

So, what's your moment?
