Passed!
finally on my 6th attempt i passed my advanced theory test. Praise the Lord! the phobia of clicking the 'YES' button after the whole test really tested me. i actuali closed my eyes when clicking the 'YES' button and then. . . . . i saw 'PASSED'. tears roll down my cheeks as i start grinning to myself. . . . no la. just kidding. i only smiled to myself with a hugh relief. WAHAHAHAHAHA. paid 90 bucks for mok test and e-learning I BETTER PASS MAN. so next step is to book practical lessons! WOOHOO! ^^ hopefully by end december can starting driving.
anyway yesterday when to watch Just my Luck! with joel, eugene, hendra and joyce. i would rate the show 2 out of 5 stars? ok don't get me wrong. the show is sweet just that with a very predictable plot it's just ok. well, i wana catch two shows! Almost love (Korean movie) and Click (acted bt Adam Sandler). HEHEHEHE. seems like both are good shows!
by the way, now u guys will see me lesser on stage. because someone told me that infact to sing every week is not good for me and i think its really true. New singers and more singers! Praise the Lord, singing and choir ministry are growing!! Thanks team!!

Joseph the Dreamer - The colour coat.a musical i did it when i was in my secondary sch days. such memorable. yesterday i saw the whole play again during philippino ss. other than the sound system, everything was good. the choir, the dancers, the singers. powerful voices. the most powerful scene is during tha altar call. when pj asked who wanted to know Jesus and invite him into their hearts, the no. of response was .......................... AWESOME. it was indeed such a beautiful sight! hearts were touched, eyes were filled with tears, souls were won back. Jesus is indeed victorious!
even my maid wanted to know Jesus as her friend! Hallelujah! follow up may be tough as she is a muslim but i trust in God like how i have no idea why God wanted me to bring her along for the play. i did and i shared and i see her going down the altar call. true that now she is still making the decision whether to continue her religion or either start this new friendship. hope she makes the right decision. =)
learning from last night sermon, dreaming big for God is knowing that it disregards human limitation. this point reali poke me so hard in my heart. until now. alot of times i dream alot but i admit that my dream are way too small. it's insulting God. now i shall think thru my dream again and make a dream that is glorifying and not self-centered. opposition will come but hey, come la! bring it on man! no body will be able to stop me from dreaming big for God. after last night i fear no more. i may be inadequate in alot of areas but i got a BIG God who still want to use me to fulfill His plan! i am so honoured!
vocal training, saxphone training, concert night, musical plays, having a human jukebox to widen my christian music world, doing all these because of one reason.
Jesus.
like in high sch days, CHIONG AR!!!!! :D

Being joyful in the midst of disappointment.God is faithful. SO FAITHFUL. He really bless my ministry so much. with people stepping out from uni and poly, i really see great singers. the times when i complained, i get frustrated, i don't feel like planning the roster, seeing my singers have to sing twice a month (especially the guys), finally i see someting!!! HALLELUJAH. =)
so true when you know that you are not alone in everything u do.
disappointed in my own vocals. it's good that now i can take breaks and not singing every week. must find back that joy in singing! must and realli a must to go for training!!! gonna train both in vocals and my saxophone.
DETERMINED.
God, i really want a vocal that is strong and impactful. yeah tml gonna watch musical play done by the philippino ss! Joseph the dreamer - the colour coat. gonna watch with joyce and wanqi!!! =) so honoured when Levee ask me. WAHAHAHAHA.

Pour-outs.
this sudden pinch and sadness in my heart make me realise how horrible i have become as a leader. making the toughest decisions, doing things that seems to have no future, i really feel like crying so much even as i am typing. where is the love i once had for people? what on earth is my passion doing to the ministry? if this is really my calling, what am i doing.
lack of knowledge, not able to communicate well, delegating jobs that needs double covering, ministry growing at a slow pace, i really feel like i doing things alone.
this battle i really need to fight well.
though i am feeling so sucky about myself, i learnt something from wam vision night, something that struck me,
"Whatever you do, work it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men."
Col 3:23
Yes. emotions may be running high now but this verse i will hold on tightly to it. even same to my future. my future seems like bottomless pit. i really can't see what's ahead and have no idea whether i am walking the right path. doubts, questions and fustration bothered me for 3 years!!! *bang head* but well, i am not as fortunate to study my interest so gotta take this path and see what God has in store for me ahead.
seems like a bad time i am having now but just that. . . . . . . . .
i want to be God-focus.
sounds dumb? right. then i shall be an idiot for God.
an idiot who wants to love more, an idiot who wants to trust that God has the best plan for her, an idiot who can't talk well but still lead with faith, an idiot who believes her ministry will soar, an idiot who will be a strong woman of God.
this idiot, i want to be.

You are who you are.i like myself. i am myself. i won't push myself to change to become someone i don't know but i will change to become better. =) i was reading this book that mention that good leadership doesn't determine on having good character.
just that good character in a leader leaves behind a legacy. - powerful? i think so.
anyway there were some things that had happen this week which to some, it was shocking. but to some, it was nothing. i like this person's nick, "you think you've left us behind. infact it's you leaving yourself behind." how true. so true. ^^ wellz, now looking for part time jobs and having rehearsals for dance. aim to stay fit and lose weight!! HAHAHA. tt's when my shep take the opportunity to ask me to go gym. -.-" (reason, i HATE gym.)
to all i love --> keep ya walk with God strong! be grateful to God for the grace. =)

"The leader who accomplishes great things will not always be the most talented or the best educated -- it will be the leader who refuses to put brackets on his thinking. It will be the leader who refuses to limit himself by what others have done or failed to do."yeah i want this courage to dream things that no one dared to do. my ministry will be something new to the ss. fun yet is a group of godly people.

Anje. - this is a short form name of a girl.
it was her that open my love for kids.
the fear to make a fool out of myself infront of kids, i overcome it finally because of this wonderful gift from God.
my life is so greatly blessed, because knowing of her story that is so heart breaking.
her simple choice of wanting to knw God and wanting Him to be her bestest fren touch my heart deep inside.
if i can, i would want to compose a song about her. =) but i knw i am limited.
well today had a great day with hannah! went out with cady and shirley n shirley's niece too! great to have such outing man~ get to play with the hopetods thanks to hannah! the fav "aunty" to all the kids. BWAHAHAHAHHA. *oops* a long day but learnt such a valuable lesson about unconditional love. no matter how naughty or irritating we are, God still loves us for who we are. imagine God loves us for what we do, life is gonna be so miserable man. death rates will increase man! no longer one snap of the fingers = one death but two deaths. the quick depletion of humans on earth. anyway just to let you guys know that Twam girls are growing strong! yahh! i am proud to be a Twam girl. ^^
