I think this is a really jumbled up post..

Okay, it’s 12.46 AM and I’m still awake. I’ve been tossing and turning for almost 2 hours already. Do you know how IRRITATING that can be?! Argh… Matters don’t help when something triggered your sinus and you’re sniffing away like Snuffles in Sesame Street. Your nose is so blocked that you can barely smell anything. Yes, I just found out that mosquitoes are fond of me. They’ve been biting me almost every night. Currently, I have four bites on my left arm and two bites on my right leg. Great, I’ve just got kissed by mosquitoes. Just hearing that buzzing around my ears frustrates me. I’ve just made mosquitoes fatter…

I went tried to get my mom’s sympathy and complained like a little girl. Instead of sympathizing me, she started laughing at me. I’m like, “Mom, it’s not funny???” She starts laughing some more. *shakes head* aren’t moms the best? You try to get their sympathy but it backfires on you big time… She’ll give me this motherly hug and pats my arm and says, “Eh, you got a lot of flesh ar. So comfortable.” Am I enveloped by motherly love or what? *laughs*

Anyway, it’s quite hard to believe that it’s almost the end of the year. A brand new year is about to begin. Another chapter of my life unfolds itself… For the past few weeks or so, I find myself reflecting on God’s greatness.

Looking back, I have so much to thank for… I have a family that I can depend on. Sure, we had major and disagreements, but my family is definitely irreplaceable. I have friends… I can just be myself around them. That includes laughing and screaming and more laughing. This awesome church has been a tremendous blessing.

Struggles that came across my path made me a stronger person. God placed them there so that it would be character-building and I would depend on Him more than I depend on myself. I know I’m far from being a finicky person, but I managed to achieve certain goals this year, thanks to God’s grace.

God let golden opportunities come across my path, but it was not His will for me to seize them. He showed me that there are many good things but they are not the best. Many times we take snatch up the good things and overlook the best things that God has in plan for us. It seems so hard, so painful to actually let go of what may seem to be golden opportunities and trust that He has something better in mind. But when you obey Him, let go of your dreams and hold on to Him, you feel this sense of peace that the world can’t take away. You still wonder what God has in mind, but you will keep holding onto Him because He’s the only one worth holding onto.

God has definitely put a dream in my heart. My circumstances are forcing me to part from that dream. It seems beyond my grasp. It’s like I’m so near to grabbing the dream, but just when I’m about to grab it, it’s yanked away. It seems like my circumstances are taunting me, jeering at my will to keep holding on, forcing me to just give up. But I know that the dream is a God-given thing. I believe that God is opening a door that no man can shut for me.

Whoa… This whole post is so jumbled up. Well, sorry you had to read all my ramblings. Ooh, it’s raining!! And it's 1.26AM.. That’s my cue to hit the sack now. I pray that God will let His blessings be known to all of you. Goodnight!

Hugs and more hugs from me! *smiles*

It's 22 Dec 07.. She turns 16 today. =)

A really random post.. Haha


Oh my gosh.. He is SO good-looking!!! Josh Duhamel is the ONLY reason I watch las Vegas.

You've grown up a good bit, but you still have a way to go before you're emotionally mature.
You have the skills to control your emotions, you just have to use them.

Haha.. I'm still a kid? lol!

You Are a Werewolf

You're unpredictable, moody, and downright freaky.
You seem sweet and harmless, until you snap. Then you're a total monster.
Very few people can predict if you're going to be Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde.
But for you, all your transformations seem perfectly natural.

Your greatest power: Your ability to tap into nature

Your greatest weakness: Lack of self control

You play well with: Vampires

Haha!! A Werewolf?! So nonsense! Hahaha

You Are 16% Emo

You're the furthest thing from emo. Sensitivity is not something you exactly cultivate... and you can't imagine weeping over song lyrics.

I'm barely emo??

What Your Handwriting Says About You

You are a fairly energetic person. You know how do pace yourself, and you deal well with stress.

Your Outrageous Name is:

Jenna Talia

Priscilla is Jenna Talia? Ew..

You Are a Night Person

For you, there's nothing worse than having to get up and moving early.
In fact, you probably don't hit your peak until well after the sun has set.
So if your struggling to make it on a normal schedule, realize it's not your fault.
You just weren't meant to do anything during the day!

So true.. Lol

You Are 56% Happy

You're definitely a happy person, even though you have your down moments.
You tend to get the most out of life, though there's always some more happiness to be squeezed.

Camp was A-W-E-S-O-M-E.

The presence of God was so tangible, I tell you. There was one session where we broke off into respective forms and gender and there were a few non-Christians in my group that time. One of them said that she felt that there was some power that she’d never felt before. It was so awesome, I tell you. Is God great or what? His presence was so tangible till non-believers could feel that there was something different. God is beyond awesome.

I had rocking games group assistants.
-Thanks Galen and Mel! Thanks for being so willing to take over when I couldn’t make it! You people rock! =)

I had rocking games group members.

I had rocking dorm members.
-These girls laugh a lot more than me. And they woke up at SIX IN THE MORNING when we were supposed to wake up at SEVEN!!! I guess they were really desperate to watch the sunrise in Peacehaven. The girls kept telling me silly stories. Quite funny lor.

I had a fun time chasing after Ashton?
-That kid remembered Dalvin but forgot about me... ARGH!

I had a rocking time chatting with Elena and Mich Tew.
-Until SOMEONE fell asleep… *wink wink* Love you la, Elena.

I had a rocking time laughing and screaming at everyone.

I had a rocking time being part of a sabo plan.
-Until SOMEONE decided to backstab me and sabo-ed me instead!!! I shall not point fingers at anyone, Mich Tew?

I had a rocking pillow to hug at night.

I had a rocking friend like Sean to give me a rocking territory.
-Until he got brainwashed by David Leong!

I had a rocking time with the Puchong people there. =)

Basically, I had a great time.

God rocks.

I Want Go Back To Kulim!

Ah, home sweet home. It feels so good being able to hug my pillows again. Hehe.

Came back from the Kulim trip yesterday. Boy, did I enjoy myself… I met a couple of people and I learnt a lot from them. It all started out with the Youth Leadership thingy and she was in Terry’s group with Issac and I. She was one of the more responsive ones. I just wanted to thank her for being responsive and our conversation started off from there. She was worried about her youth group because she’ll be studying overseas next year. She fought so hard to get the youth group started and none of the youths in her group take the initiative to keep the group alive. She’s just afraid that the whole youth group would just crumble down. That went on about how she’s discriminated for not being pure Chinese and stuff. We talked for more than an hour. I really had a good conversation with her.

Do you know that Pastor Cameron (Alive Camp speaker) has a REALLY cute son?? He’s 2 years old and his name is Ashton. SO CUTE!!!!! Blonde hair and big brown eyes…SO CUTE!!!

The lame bug has been going around. It’s the 2 Josh-es fault. Josh Yong and Josh Yee are equally lame. They’ve been spreading the lame bug around… It’s HORRIBLE!! Even Darren got infected and started telling lame jokes. Gosh…

Terry : Eh, what’s the English term for ‘bomba’?
Dalvin : BOMBA MAN!

Aiyoooooooo… So nonsense.

Josh: Pris laugh so hard after she get laugh-mares!!

=.=’

Debs : Ashton is so cute, he’s definitely going to sweep girls off their feet.
Josh : So, he’s a broom?

So nonsense!!! HAHAHAHAHAH!!!

To Eunice,

Dear Eunice,

Happy 16th birthday! Happy belated birthday, rather.. *smiles*

I really thank God for having you as a friend. I still remember our first YC Camp in 2004. We ended up in the same games group. Who knew that little, fragile friendship would hang on until now? It's just fascinating that our friendship would hang this long.. Especially when we only meet once in 2 years? Despite not staying near each other, we were accountable to each other all these while. You read my long, naggy e-mails when you didn't have to. In fact, you replied and sent long, naggy e-mails too! =P You encouraged me not to give up when I was at the point of defeat.

Through you, I realized that I could be completely honest, knowing that you would not condemn me. Through you, I realized that there are youths who are really trying their best to serve God and giving Him their best. Through you, I realized that I took so many things for granted. I saw your zeal to serve God with your voice and guitar. I admired that zeal of yours and decided to serve God with the littlest things that I have. You used your writing skills to glorify His name. You never gave up on your situations. Instead, you prayed for a breakthrough. That faith of yours made miracles happen!

Just want to say that you are indeed a blessing in my life. And we both know that we are worried what would happen next. I pray that you will continue serving God with all your heart, and don't stop falling in love with Him for the rest of your life. Circumstances might seem as though everything's not going as planned. But be assured that God holds your future and He sees everything.

Thank you, Eunice. And God bless.

Love, Priscilla.

A Letter From a Friend

Dear (put your own name in),

Just want to let you know that you have definitely made a difference in my life. Even that little smile of yours cheers me up. No matter what kind of personality you have, whether you are nonsense, lame, logical, or whatever, you definitely spice up my life. If I had not thank you for being in my life, then I'm saying it now. Thank you. I thank God that I have you as a friend, that I can count on you. No matter how irritating or lovely you can be, you are definitely a great blessing. I pray that God will bless you in every aspect of your life.

From, Priscilla.

Goodbye KL and hello Kulim!

Currently with a very swollen eyelid and a very red eye. it's been like that since I woke up this morning. So irritating, I tell you.

and my computer is attacked by hordes of viruses so I'm actually using my mom's laptop. If not for the laptop, I'll be internet-less.

It would be nice to be rich. You can have endless shopping. Instead of going around, looking at clothes you'll be able to own them. You'll just keep staring at the clothes, just praying that one day, ONE DAY you'll own them. That one day would be in a thousand years time. Being rich for a day would be nice. Sighs. I want to stop being so pathetic by just st aring at those nice clothes, just wishing that you would own them. Just wishing and wishing and wishing. But not able to buy them. Now it's back to warehouse sales.

Worship in Children's Church was rocking, SURPRISINGLY. I had a great time there. Okay, the children were REALLY stoned at first but we got them grooving. We even got the teachers to participate and start moving around while the kids were really jumping their toes off! The band had a great time there too. Josh Yee strummed his guitar so hard till he broke one of his guitar strings. Maka's new strings went out of tune cause he played the guitar too hard. Debbie and I had a sorethroat after that. I really would want to sing there again!!!! =)

Let me just tell you what a good friend Maka can be.. let's just say you're an hour LATE (unintentionally!!!) for practice and the moment you step in, Maka announces your arrival. Then all heads turn and EVERYBODY know that you came in late. =.= So there you go.. that's Mr.Turtle Bear Wong for you.

He is so not going to like this when he reads it. Hehe.. I just had to write that. Hehe

Thursday, November 29, 2007

I'm currently in the church office.. There's nothing much for me to do here except start goofing around with Alison's laptop. Hehehehe.

I'm going to do this for the next one and a half hours. Sorry, Al. =)

**************************************************************************************

Joelle's back from Aussie. Can you believe she was my CG Leader when I was 13? Lol. It seemed as though it was ages ago. Okay, I'm running out of things to say. Really...

The Discernment Muscle by Mark Matlock

The dictionary defines discernment as “keen insight” or “good judgment.” The Bible usually uses the word when describing the ability to tell right from wrong or truth from lies. In Deuteronomy 32:28, an entire nation is described as being “without sense” because they don’t have the discernment to make good choices about right and wrong or good and evil.

People without discernment are the most likely to believe lies about the spiritual world. They’re the ones who either swallow every idea and experience that comes along or reject God because He can’t be experienced with their senses. You and I need discernment to figure out the truth about spiritual things.

Where do you get that kind of discernment? Well, we know from the Bible that God gives discernment, because He gave it to both David and his son Solomon (1 Kings 3:11-12; 2 Chronicles 2:12). So it makes sense to start by asking God to give you the discernment to tell truth from lies about spiritual things. That’s what David did (Psalm 119:125).

But discernment is kind of like athletic ability. If you don’t use it, you could lose it. If you let your discernment muscle get flabby, it won’t be there when you need it most. Job wrote that God can take away the discernment of those who once had it (Job 12:20). And a man of great discernment, Solomon, wrote that you have to work to hold on to it: “Preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight” (Proverbs 3:21).

But what can you do to build up that discernment muscle? How can you work out to become stronger in the area of discernment about spiritual things? You have to practice.

Discern Like the Bereans
During his travels, Paul found a group of people who were excellent at practicing discernment. Read what Acts 17:11-12 says about the Christians in the town of Berea: “Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. Many of the Jews believed, as did also a number of prominent Greek women and many Greek men.”

Did you catch the Bereans’ attitude toward new information? First, they were eager, or open-minded, to learn the truth. They weren’t closed to ideas they didn’t understand. They didn’t run from new experiences or concepts that were uncomfortable. They wanted to hear what Paul had to say about God; they wanted to grow in their knowledge of the spiritual.

From that, we learn that practicing discernment starts with listening and learning. What, exactly, does someone want you to believe about the spiritual? What are the details of what your friend experienced? What exactly is that TV show or scary movie suggesting about the world beyond our senses? If you had a strange experience, what can you say happened—for sure? Discernment starts with taking the time to get the facts straight.

Next, the Bereans were eager to learn the truth. They didn’t stop with the facts; they wanted to understand the meaning behind the facts so they could live their lives according to the truth. They didn’t settle for making big assumptions about what was being presented to them.

Finally, this muscular group of discerners didn’t simply take what Paul said at face value. They didn’t just flip around the TV dial of their day, drinking in every new idea and accepting it as truth. Instead, they compared everything Paul taught them with the truth of Scripture to make sure it was true. The Bereans understood that God’s Word was the standard for all truth. If an idea or experience contradicted Scripture, they threw it out as a lie.

That’s practicing discernment. Listen. Understand. Compare with Scripture. Every new bit of info about the spiritual world should go through that filter in your brain. Listen. Understand. Compare with Scripture. That’s the pattern of critical thinking for a Christian.

Not Listening
Let’s start with listening. You’d think that any of us could take the time to listen to what was being presented about the supernatural if we really wanted to discern the truth. But listening is often last on our lists of things to do.

For instance, someone who has already decided there’s no way any supernatural force could have been involved in the origin of the world might not take the time to listen to the evidence for an intelligent designer. That person might just tune out immediately when someone starts to talk about creation.

On the other side of the block, closed-minded Christians often miss opportunities to help clear up misunderstandings about the spiritual simply because they don’t take the time to listen to those who have questions.

But taking the time to listen gives us another chance to help someone (or ourselves) discern the truth about strange or unexplained experiences.

Another reason people don’t listen is fear. The spiritual world is just so scary for some folks that they don’t want to hear anything about it. Or they’re afraid that listening to someone talk about communication with the dead or other strange happenings will cause them to doubt their own beliefs.

But fear is a lousy reason for not practicing discernment about spiritual things. The Bible is clear that fear does not come from God (2 Timothy 1:7). God is not only big enough to protect us from the supernatural world, He’s big enough to handle any hard questions that come when we take the time to listen to what others are saying about spiritual things. If God is really God, hard questions aren’t going to shake Him—and they don’t need to keep us from listening.

Little siblings

Currently in Nic's house and using her computer. Poor girl. She's busy running around, taking care of her younger siblings and doing the housework. And worse still, she has me to entertain. Sighs. I feel so guilty......... Sorry...

But she has this cute 2 year old sister who's pretty active. Ariel's really cute and yeah, she keeps talking and talking and I don't understand a single sound that's coming out from her mouth. But I kinda miss having a little sister. I mean like my sister's already 10. She's pretty tall. Well, I definitely miss taking care of a little baby. I can't cuddle my sister anymore like how I can cuddle a little baby.

I remember I was a really scrawny 9 year old old that was definitely underweight and pretty much looked like a drug addict. And that fragile 9 year old was trying to carry a big fat 3 year old. You should see our pictures. Yup, it was definitely a sight.

Somehow, little Ariel reminds me of my sister when she was a lot younger. Too bad Ariel is Nic's sister, not mine. Hehe...

I guess I have this thing for little kids. They're just so adorable. Just looking at them scurrying around like rodents (as how Nic would put it) would just bring a smile to my face.

Be blessed, be loved, be lifted high

How many of us claim to have a relationship with our God when we give Him so little of our time?

Sometimes we don’t realize that we’re so busy doing things for Him till we forget to do things with Him. Sometimes we worry so much about things that we forget that He holds our future. Sometimes we do give Him our ‘very best’ but deep down we know that our ‘very best’ wasn’t our very best at all. Sometimes we claim that we’re His biggest fans but we don’t take the initiative to tell the world about Him. We sing ‘tell the world that Jesus lives’ but we’re only telling our church friends about it. We tell Him that we love Him but we put other things before Him.

Is camp the only time we can be close to Him?

How can God be far away when He’s always right by your side?

Don’t you think it’s time for us to get right with God? Don’t you think it’s time to give Him your best, as in ultimate best? Don’t you think we should be on fire for God till the day we die?

Knees To The Earth
by Watermark

Wonderful Savior
My heart belongs to Thee
I will remember always the blood You shed for me
Wonderful Savior
My heart will know Your worth

Chorus:
Be blessed, be loved, be lifted high
Be treasured here
Be glorified
I owe my life to You my Lord
Here I am....

Beautiful Jesus
How may I bless Your heart?
Knees to the earth I bow down to everything You are
Beautiful Jesus
You are my only worth
So let me embrace You always as I walk this earth

My holidays aren’t going to be just pigging out and rotting at home after all! Haha.

My mom decided that we should start cleaning up our house after living in this place for almost a decade. (Nine and a half years to be exact) Apparently, my mom doesn’t want me to rot at home. Oh well…

I opened my drawers and I was cleaning up nine and a half year’s worth of dust. Yuck. I didn’t realize that I actually kept a lot of junk. All the silly stuff like ‘Calling Cards’. Anyway, for those of you who don’t know what those are; they’re just like name cards, with stupid pictures on them. Only God knows how much money I spent on those junk. Yeesh… What a waste of good money.

Having a pretty bad flu and I sound like Donald Duck.

I felt an instant pang of guilt when I heard this,

“I can’t talk to Priscilla in church anymore. She’s always busy…”

I felt extremely guilty when my old friend said that. She didn’t say that behind my back and condemn me or whatsoever. She just said it innocently. She is a friend that I’ve stuck with in church for 5 years. Because of our friendship, our families met and eventually her dad who does not speak English or go to church is coming once a while. It’s like a dream come true for her.

This year, I had my obligations. (and enjoying them, by the way!) I didn’t realize that I did NOT talk to my old friends throughout the whole year. And she is one of them. Casual ‘hi’s and bye’s’ are not counted.

I so need a sleepover with the rest of my old friends. =(

I’m not saying that my friends now are lousy. In fact, they are terrific blessings in my life! Sometimes it’s just good to unwind your life a little…

The future?

It just scares me to think about the future. You don't know what is installed for you next. Anything might just happen to you one second from now. A hammer might just drop from the sky right on your head and you end up in the hospital. Someone might just whisper in your ear saying you rock his/her world. You might just get screamings for your parents for forgetting to lock the door. (As if any of these would happen)

Every tick of the clock indicates that the future is not too far away. Every tick she ticks scares me.

I'm waiting for something.

I'm waiting for the perfect (hopefully!) answer that would lead me to a whole new world.

Or not.

Oh, God, help.

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer

School was pretty fun - SURPRISINGLY.

Nic and I decided to goof around with the netball post by shooting netballs - and we were in our school uniforms. She can shoot, okay.. And she shoots so far till I have to run after the ball. =.= Hehe. =P

We were playing under the sun and now my nose looks pretty red. I feel like putting a bag, yes, a bag of ice on my nose.

This is the Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer signing out.

The smile of the baldie that captured my heart.

This is the boy that captured my heart..



He is so incredibly adorable... He smiles 24/7 and lets you carry him.. Oh gosh.. His smile just melts my heart.
That is also why I go downstairs for HF every Friday. Hehe

Time after time
I’ve been looking at myself
I say I wanna be more like You
I say I wanna follow Your ways

What I didn’t expect
Were the choices that I had to make

It wasn’t something that was so wrong
It seemed so right
It seemed as though it was Your will
It was an opportunity that not many could seize

I found out
That things doesn’t matter
To the love I have for You

Jesus, You are my God
I will follow Your ways
Teach me, dear God
To follow Your will

I said I would give up things for You
I said I would obey Your voice
Why does it seem so easy to say
But so hard to do?

I love You
More than the things in the world
More than the treasures I have

I love You
I would give up my life
Just to call on Your name
And to seek Your face

To obey You costs me everything
To love You with all my heart
That’s what I’ll do
Just to love You, my Lord

Sometimes I can’t comprehend
Why choices are hard
Sometimes I don’t understand
Why they hurt me so

But to love You, I know
Is to give up all of me
And that’s what I want to be
I just wanna let You know
You are my God
I just wanna let You know
You mean everything to me

I’ll pass that golden opportunity
And to obey Your call
Lord, please count my tears.

Opportunities come and go.. Do they?

Opportunities, and I mean golden opportunities are just coming in my way. They are the type that you’re the stupidest person just to let it go. You’re so hyped up about it, but due to circumstances you have to let it go.

How many times do you receive such golden opportunities anyway? To get this is very honourable. Only so few get that chance and you are to turn it down.

It just seems so right to go ahead and seize that opportunity. It isn’t something going against your beliefs; in fact, it’s a chance for you to practise what you believe in! To others, it seems like the right-est thing to do. It’s like you’re serving God with it!
But of course, there is such word called ‘priorities’.

Priorities are not meant to be compromised with. Priorities mean that you have to stick to it no matter what kind of golden or silver or jewelled opportunities come in your way.

There are things that I want to do so much. So much till I would just push my future away for it. I have been praying about it, and I do not like the answer I received. The only comfort that I have that I will not dwell and snatch up the good and overlook the best. (although the best is something that I cannot see)

I guess I am turning the opportunity down – with an extremely heavy heart. I’d better stop going against the God’s will. I’ll do what He wants me to do, even if it’s to give up this dream of mine.

Tuitions are fun. Kinda

Nic and I go for this BM tuition and the teacher is really good. He gives really good techniques but he’s too sure of himself, which can be REALLY annoying. But anyway, he was teaching us Malay metaphors for us to spice up our Malay essays. Like menuding jari, memekakkan telinga, menghirup udara kebebasan, membutakan hati, memejamkan mata and so on and so forth. He calls it ‘body language’.

We actually found a way to argue among ourselves using that technique. Jiunn Jye said something irritating…

Me : Oi, don’t menuding jari okay.
Nic : Let’s not bertikam lidah.
JJ : Baik aku membisukan mulut.
Teacher: Dan saya akan memejamkan mata.
Haha… The teacher was pretty amazed that we could actually argue using his techniques. Remember I said about menghirup udara kebebasan? The teacher pointed to his nose and told us to guess what kind of ‘body language’ it was. We knew it got to do with ‘menghirup’ and ‘hidung’. Yit Wai just shouted out ‘HIDUNG BERTIUP!’

Aiyo, so nonsense la. Just imagine your ‘hidung bertiup’.

I’m still laughing.

Haha

Back to Blogspot again...

Back to Blogspot again due to Nic and Hannah’s requests. *smiles widely*

And yes, EXAMS ARE FINALLY OVER! Gosh, I am indeed incredibly happy! That means NO MORE STUDYING! (Well, for the year, at least)

Somehow exams don’t seem so horrid when you’re best friend is sitting next to you. You’re able to make faces at each other or throw Panadol wrappers or your eraser dusts at each other. She wouldn’t condemn you if you heave LOUD sighs of frustrations because she’s sighing as loud as well. Or you both will just say a word that reminds you both of something really funny and you both end up stifling your laughter.

Nic and I had a great time after school. We walked all the way down to the shops near the mall just to eat mamak food. There is a mamak stall a minute walk from my place, but I guess we were desperate for good cheap food or we wanted to lose calories.

We had a deep conversation in the midst of the noisy mamak shop, breathing cigarette smoke from the smokers nearby and listening to the clanging from the construction site. Oh, I forgot to mention that we were occasionally distracted by the male waiters holding hands. Oh, yucks.
