I think I'll look back next time at these very funny, strange, 
but rather wonderful two years with my class.


Oh and, 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOMMY.


 生曰快乐,
I love you (:

And there's huge blister on my foot.

Three little ducks that I once knew, fat ones skinny ones two by two.

Really tired. ._. 
It's Saturday.

Anyway, random photos from a while back.

But the one little duck with the feather on his back, he ruled the others with a quack quack quack.

Auf Wiedersehen.

One day, King Solomon decided to teach a lesson to humble his most trusted minister, Benaiah ben Yehoyada.

He said to Benaiah, "Benaiah, there is a certain ring that I want you to bring to me. I wish to wear it for Sukkot which gives you six months to find it."

"If it exists anywhere on earth, your majesty," replied Benaiah, "I will find it and bring it to you, but what makes the ring so special?"

"It has magic powers," answered the king. "If a happy man looks at it, he becomes sad, and if a sad man looks at it, he becomes happy." Solomon knew that no such ring existed in the world, but he wished to give his minister a little taste of humility.

Spring passed and then summer, and still Benaiah had no idea where he could find the ring. On the night before Sukkot, he decided to take a walk in one of the poorest quarters of Jerusalem. He passed by a merchant who had begun to set out the day's wares on a shabby carpet. "Have you by any chance heard of a magic ring that makes a happy wearer forget his joy and the broken-hearted wearer forget his sorrows?" asked Benaiah.

He watched the grandfather take a plain gold ring from his carpet and engrave something on it. When Benaiah read the words on the ring, his face broke out in a wide smile.

That night the entire city welcomed in the holiday of Sukkot with great festivity. "Well, my friend," said Solomon, "have you found what I sent you after?" All the ministers laughed and Solomon himself smiled.

To everyone's surprise, Benaiah held up a small gold ring and declared, "Here it is, Your Majesty!" As soon as Solomon read the inscription, the smile vanished from his face. The jeweller had written three Hebrew letters on the gold band: _gimel, zayin, yud_, which began the words "_Gam zeh ya'avor_" -- "This too shall pass."

As he read, the king's sorrows turned to joy, and his joys to sorrow, and then both gave way to peace. The king was reminded in that moment that all his riches and glory were impermanent, and all his sorrows would pass away as the seasons and the years.



Indeed. And this, too, shall pass.

The message on Sunday really spoke to me, and roughed out some uncertainties that were rather unsettling. What a reminder, to be in the world but not of the world. That said, we do need to fulfil the duties and responsibilities that we have. But what remains more important is to keep our vision focused on the larger picture of Life - an eternity with Him.

An eternal YF camp! How's that! (:

Sorry for hurting You.

Pretty Big Shoes to put myself into.
I think I'd never comprehend.

People need the Lord.

Feeling so... frustrated now. All the reports of Japan's quakes keep pouring in. People missing, people dying, people's homes destroyed, lives destroyed... Sitting here right now feeling pretty anguish and frustrated that I can't seem to be able to do anything. At all.

In another part of the world, people are staging protests and violent demonstrations. Killings are going on, governments are being overthrown, places burnt down, smashed and destroyed...

What a world we live in, don't you think so?

Today's YF was a really meaningful time when all the small groups could come together and pray for different parts of the world. And for each other. Prayer... is so small, yet so great. It's like the littlest of things, but the difference one prayer can make could really mean the world.
Steve Green - People need the Lord
Everyday they pass me by,
I can see it in their eyes.
Empty people filled with care,
Headed who knows where?

On they go through private pain,
Living fear to fear.
Laughter hides their silent cries,
Only Jesus hears.

People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize, people need the Lord?

We are called to take His light
To a world where wrong seems right.
What could be too great a cost
For sharing Life with one who's lost?

Through His love our hearts can feel
All the grief they bear.
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share.

People need the Lord, people need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize that we must give our lives,
For peo-ple need the Lord.

People need the Lord.
Now how shall we go on living our lives? ):
It's so heart-wrenching to think of all the destruction and turmoil going on. Sigh.

How much have we sinned... Sigh.
Lord, help us to keep our eyes focused on Your light and glory and grace. Only You can heal.

My favourite people (:

I love you, little baby Kath and Mama (:

I pray - every night - for you, little one, 
that you will grow up healthy and happy in Him, 
and that one day you too will come to know Him as your personal Lord; 
and Mama, 
that your heart will be opened to Christ's salvation and security one day.

Bluefin tuna & the Atlantic.

And So I Number My Points Again.

  1. I've come to realise that how good or bad my day is is directly correlated to the timetable for the day, and the amount of sleep I get the night before.
  2. Tuesdays are officially declared The Worst Day of the Five-day Work Week. Lessons are madness!
  3. I didn't fall asleep in Econs lecture today! Was soooooooo tempted to.
  4. OH OH OH. I TELL YOU. HAHAHAHAHA! :D (Refer to next point.)
  5. Yknow, recently there's this trend of people getting all plugged in on their MP3s and iPods in public places and on public transport right? (Refer to next point.)
  6. (Wah seriously. Everywhere, everyone is just zooked into their own little world.) (Refer to next point.)
  7. Guess what's the trend that's newer than that? (Refer to next point.)
  8. People SINGING in public while they're on their MP3s. 
  9. (Y)
  10. Wah seriously!!! I've been encountering more and more of them everywhere! And they sing real loudly! And it usually... okay shall just quote Randy, "a lil' pitchy, dawg." (Read: Off-key, bad singing.)
  11. People being plugged in are just so sucked in their own little world! It's so sad, they don't get to hear the sounds and soak in the atmosphere/people-watch/car-watch. I'm awesome at people-watching/car-watching! Character trait of being an only child, hah. 8)
  12. Training was good today! 
  13. Wednesday timetables are awesome!
  14. So are Thursdays'! 
  15. Okay whatever. It's 12:20. I'm off to bed. :D
  16. Oh! (: I didn't eat seaweed chicken today! Hahahaha! I had two pieces of french toast!
  17. Oh. One more thing. I need to spend less money on food. ._. Seriously.
Kay chow. Off to bed. :D Wednesday is already brimming with positiveness and happiness and All Things Bubbly. There's gonna be a firedrill! Exciting :D
