Goodbye Sept

Praying that you will take care of your health.
Praying that you will live a happier life.
Praying that you are just by my side.

Happy wkend~

I had a great weekend last week!

I was with my F4 gang - MM, JJ & SM on Friday @ waffletown and had the yummiEst fried chicken! Served hot & crispy, the meat is so nice & tender that I had 4 pieces of it, which is probably the most no. of pieces I ever ate in any one meal. Their waffles wasn't that fantastic as I find it's somewhat tasteless. Perhaps they should consider changing their name to chickytown instead.

Sat & Sunday was simply great too as I've got to spend some time with my dearest darling despite his busy work schedule. :MUacks:

We went to Ichi's hse for some briefing on his wedding, followed by dinner @ Uno Beef House which is located at a kopidiam in Toa Payoh Lorong 5. It's really good!! Definitely SO MUCH BEtter than Aston which I would strongly discouraged anybody to try.

Met up with darling on Sunday evening as well & we went for "Mamma Mia"! And if any of you whom have not watch this movie, ya better go catch the show before it goes offscreen!

The scenes which is on a small island of Greece is really captivating! And I really enjoyed the songs & dance in the show that I even sang along. Hopefully, I did not made deaf anybody's ears at the cinema! Anyway, I really envy her wedding - held in a chapel, the hanging lamps used at the dinner, the back lights which made the ambience very romantic & sweet! =X



Thank God for such a marvelous weekend! =)

Hooked.

It's raining elephants & hippos in Singapore and my neighborhood is sorta flooded by all the construction work going on.

I had my bit of fun slipper-walking through puddles of water today & I thought it would be great skipping around with rubber boots! Haha!

My huge umbrella didn't help cover much of me & my bag; I seemed to be more worried if my new purchase will be ruined.

I've got hooked to it since yesterday and I wished I had more energy to keep myself awake to finish reading the whole book. Now I can't wait to get my hands on the other but it's just bad luck for me that the store only has the last copy and its torn!

兴奋！

突然觉得很兴奋！可能是因为想到有重要的事要做，所以感觉如此。
虽然会有一点困难，但我知道自己一定会成功!

我祈求上帝能帮助我完成我的心愿! =)

911

Val's entry on 911 had triggered me to write this. So what was I doing during this terrible incident?

I was working with SIA(one of the dream company I want to be in) @ the HR department under the recruitment & selection for the IT department. Being someone with just an O' Lvl cert and of no relevant job experience, it seems like the impossible thingy, especially in the government sector. But I've got the chance of a temporary contract and was already on the to-be-converted to a permanent staff stage.

Unfortunately, all things changed because of 911 terrorist crash incident. This has affected the aviation industries quite badly. All available headcounts froze, and many even got retrenched. For me, my hopes with SIA vanished, just like WTC.

The lucky thingy that came outta this? I got employed with Keppel. And thank God for that. =)

Foul day

I dislike people scolding vulgarities. I find it rude & a form of disrespect. And foul language being scolded at you from a friend because he don't see eye to eye with you on something.

THAT'S EVEN WORST!

Epi-Lasik Update

You probably must be wondering why I said in my earlier entry that I'm having difficulty reading in low-light areas.

Unfortunately to say, I'm still left with a +100 astigmatism on my right eye. And the next is to wait for 3 months to ensure that it's stabilize before I go for an enhancement.

Frankly speaking, I'm not so afraid of having another surgery but more hoping that they do it soonest! But my guess that the earliest 'eyesight perfection' will only be Christmas!

Ahh! I really must pray on this one...

Size does matters!

I bought myself another Bible today and carefully stick the index tabs for easy-referencing(it took me about an hour).

The reason for this new purchase is that I'm having difficulty reading in low-light areas and at early hours in the morning like between 4AM - 7AM. And since my other Bible is small & compact for most handbags, you can probably figure how small the fonts are!

Big Bowl

What's with the size of the bowl? I have never been to Japan but do they really use such huge eating utensils? Furthermore, it's actually kinda tiring eating with the chopsticks that is also too short!

Nevertheless, I had a great lunch with Elle last week. =)

Shoot me dead.

I deserve to be shot dead for the blog entry before this. For I had let lousy emotions affected me rather than believing wholeheartedly that God is doing good in/for me. I failed to understand on the Word; the very first which I 'memorized' & put in heart in my Christ walk.

Ecclesiastes 9:11 - I have seen something else under the sun, the race is not to the swift, or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.

It's time I do something about it, else just shoot me dead!

I hope this isn't just a big joke!

Was my life ruined by my own hands? My stubbornness or rebellious self?

What happens if I had been following the path my parents had wanted me to take? Would things be different now?

Since younger days, there were so many things which I had done well & could have achieve better, such as academic & sports , but I did not. I took another route which lead me to today.

OMG! I think I'm going mad or something.

I came to know or rather found out a few things recently which made me feel belittled & lacking of confidence. I just feel ugly, stupid & dumb & should be non-existence on earth.

And I try to ask & seek for an answer from God, why am I here for? WHY? :(

I'm not a robot...

I'm still human & not made of steel/metal/bronze ok, and not as great as everybody finds me to be. I still feel some sort of frustration & sadness sometimes when I can't get to meet you each day or when some things don't get in my way. But I'll learn that it's not my way, it is God's way - for me to be patient and understanding.

Colossians 1:16
For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.

My heart says...

All the while, I have not thought much ahead till recent happenings to myself. A big decision which I had made, not only for myself but ‘for whatever the matter’ is too. While I always thought I could do it; when come to the actual situation, I could not. And this was the biggest guilt in my mind...

Having thoughts into the future because of the above (but this has been in my mind even before any of you might have know me). Simplicity - that's all I ever wanted. And if you want to talk about marriage; I want a happy marriage & marriage vows to be exchanged in a church with the one I love and love me. These vows are significant and meaningful that it overwrites anything! I have never thought of wanting a wedding ceremony neither nor to live in a big house. I want no celebration, no decorations, no buffet, etc. Perhaps these were things which someone else might have wished for, but these are certainly not what I want!!!

You also mentioned that you feel it’s only right to provide and had/gonna spent lotsa time trying to build this. Much as I understand your well-planned intentions, but during this process if we had neglected each others’ feelings, causing our feelings to fade or simple cease in time to come. No matter how much money one earns, we can never buy back the time loss and the feelings we had for each other.

Planning is always one thingy, striking a balance is another. I know it’s never easy for anybody to do so, but we just got to try & never give up.

As much as I hope that I can spent more time with you each day and that each weekend will be longer, I know this is not possible. But I still try my very best...

Somewhat my heart has not rested since the day we got together (sounds stupid, if my heart rest, it probably meant that I’m dead). No doubt, I want to shout out loud that I love you, and wanting more in our relationship; I am afraid I might fall badly and never to get up again. There are many fears in my heart and one of them which you already had mentioned, but I know God will give me strength, dispels all fears and always be my pillar.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons which lead me so close to God; there is no other whom I converse so much each day of my daily life.

There is so much that I want to help you with, in every aspect of your life but I know there are limitations to what I could do, except to pray – for patience & strength, for our healing and that we will grow further in this relationship, together with God.

Your horoscope for today.

You may have a hard time relating to people in social situations, Linda. Perhaps you are frustrated by hearing the same shallow conversations over and over again. While you stand there mingling with dozens of different people, all you can think of is how nice it would be if you could just be home alone on your own couch in front of the TV. Your best plan of attack is to simply avoid situations that you know you won't enjoy. There is no sense in torturing yourself.

Hah! The above has gotta be the best to describe my day. But I still went to meet my ex-colleagues + a 4 mth old baby today as they had been complaining that I had vanished.

Time & Chance Happens to them all

When's mine? *Sobz*

Things Happen for a Good Reason.

So many things happened recently; not only to myself, and also to other friends, till I do not know what I should be feeling now but just wanting to pray.

I understand that things happen for a good reason, however such trials of life isn't very fun and can hurt badly. It would be good if I'm made of metal but I'm not. My heart do aches.

And I pray... Please, my dear Lord. Help me! Keep me away from these...

Money No Enough 2

I went to watch 'Money No Enough 2' last night and it's been a long time since I laughed so much. Especially the part when the mother kept asking, "Ah Hui, you have come home ah? Have you eaten?" It was supposed to be a sad scene, but it was the way the question was being asked repeatedly and responded by Ah Hui which kept me laughing till I teared.

Other than this, the show does portray on the lives of Singaporeans these days. I applause Jack Neo's ideas of removing the ERPs gantries & making them into sculptures instead. Hah!

Abbreviations ...

Just got to know some new ppl recently and they tend to use abbreviations in their sms or conversations. Somehow or rather, I've got influence a little so I kept using it aso =X

The list of common ones which you'll see/seen me using would be:
PTL = Praise the Lord (Dun ask me y yday PTL x infinity, tat's a little secret.)
GBU = God Bless You

Others I used (but on GOP only bcos there are a few bo liao/emo/stubborn/attention seeking/very extra/irritating goonz around) <==agreed by two & more. Hahahahaha!:
DL = Dulan
VB = Vomit blood
GBW = Go bang wall

So all of you better get use to it okie? If I come up with new ones, will probably post here again. =P

PTL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

X infinity!!! =)

Trust...

Someone wrote in the forum about trusting your other half.

To be frank, be it my other half or anybody, I will try not to put so much trust on them. Even if I say I do trust KC; how about the people around him/us, whatsoever.

I agree when people say, if you keep hanging out with those 'pls fill in your own blanks', you will somehow get influenced too. An e.g., my colleagues always goes for branded goods, if I keep following them during lunch as they visit boutiques almost everyday, sooner or later, I MIGHT get tempted and fall into this little indulgence with them. And that's why I chose not to join them for lunch that often, else I will just go off after lunch.

Ahh...such desires... just one word = sad.

Another thingy is that we meet all sorts of people each day, be it good or evil, this is something we cannot control. Perhaps each of these people are sent down by God to test on your faith...

And only, we, individually can choose either to allow the good to do good or the evil to plant evil in your life. And the only way to guard yourself, is to keep remembering & following on His Word and I can't agree more when Frank wrote on, "Be wise in your dealing with strangers. And remember the Gospel."

The only one whom I can trust 101% now is God. For He is immutable & will always be there for me. He will not succumb to temptations and will always be the only righteous one. He provides and only want the best for me. And I will follow in this path which He has set out for me. =)
