refuge

I sing a love song to You Lord
every day, every night
tell of Your goodness and mercy
tell the world how You rescued me
picked me up from sin and shame
Your breath gives me new life

Where can i go from Your presence
under Your wings, i take refuge
Your spirit lives within my heart
i know, we'll never be apart

every day, i draw closer to You Lord
i long to see Your face, and hide in Your embrace
and all my life, dwelling in Your holy place
my heart o Lord You've changed
i'll never be the same..




a nice weekend that ended up with some deep thoughts and reflections
things do not always go our way, but we should never lose hope in ourselves.
especially not in our wonderful awesome God

"Never underestimate my Jesus.
You're telling me that there's no hope.
I'm telling you your wrong.

Never underestimate my Jesus
When the world around you crumbles
He will be strong, He will be strong"

yes, i do believe in Him.
and i also believe in you.
dont give up on yourself

tale as old as time

loads of kisses and misses


to the good ole times ((:


looks familiar?




the wonders of clearing up and classifying pictures into categorized memories
i even found leon's long-lost pictures from CCAAB camp!!
seokk! does he still want em? hahaha ooopps~

as we go on, we remember
all the times we, had together..

badminton!

hahaha~ yes, we just threw away whatever image we had of prim&proper
amazing how ONE chair in the video room can be so much fun hahaha
the gurls came over for badminton today! ((: details in huishi's blog (since i was running around alot)
but it was great fun, and great exercise haha hopefully all the running will rid the fats from all the FOODFOODFOOD i've been eating!!


this is me. on video effect from the webcam from my com. haha
yes i was bored in the morning while waiting for driving
i like it how its really like this expression -____-

ok its rly hard to blog n talk on the phone @ d same time..
so i shall end about here!
bye~

you'll be in my heart ((:

many reasons to smile, and many reasons to be happy today ((:
especially after.. DAILY SCOOP!!
with mac ((:
i realized i havent been to daily scoop for a really really long time. too long.
the slow walk into the hidden wonders of sunset way conjured up manymany memories
from the first time sarah and i walked almost the whole of clementi in search for the shop, calling up random people whom we recalled having icecream there before, and then finally savoring the sweetness of our relentless search
to the frequent visits, clad in school uniform, after school with joshua, before tuition with mac, and whenever i can((:
yes, in fact i spent most of my depressed moments there. because icecream does wonders. not to mention GOOD icecream + brownies hehehe~

term break in 2 more days! ((: but since i have no classes tmr, so effectively its just 3 more hours of classes more!

spastic and unglam photos in the central library ((:
the people who made uni life so colorful! :D




You put the blue back in the sky
You put the rainbow in my eyes
A silver lining in my prayers
And now there's color everywhere

coming home to You

And He said:
"You're never far
I will be where you are
and when you come to me
You can bet I will open my arms"

every day is a new day for God to shower His blessings
and every day is a day for me to love You and you even more ((:

-

kenneth: hey!! how're you doing in the states?? im goodgood ((: getting kinda busy but still going strong haha. blog more about the US!!

huishi: hahaha dont worry girl i think cow's meat is still nicer hahaha. i just bite to irritate him =p but fret not! i wont bite youuu!! (hopefully hehehe~)

i'm lovin' it

im feeling a little bored. when i havent actually started studying at all.
here i am, at west mall macs, with none other than mac himself. wahaha. (who just met matthew downstairs)
we're here on another attempt mission to study. key word here: attempt.

here's evidence!

okay, so i did give a successful hour of tuition to my tuition kid.
poor girl's having prelims tomorrow. that was so yesterday to me, but nonetheless, i feel her pain

anyway. here's one of the manymany reasons i absolutely love celine tan shi jie




she's always willing to share her pulu-ness (read: fat) with regi and i ((: hahaha.
so here's some australian "pulu" - krispy kremes!!!!
shiokshiokshiok ((:
i miss you gurl!! i really really doooo!!! come back here will you? :(

sigh. weekends are almost over :( argh. seems all too fast.
but next week's even week!! hahaha. slacking week, before another free week of mid-term break! ((:
this weekends have been spent in sloth hehehe~
rainy weathers and warm blankets and bearhugs go preetee well together.
i went for deepan's OCS social night too ((: rather interesting, and much less formal than joshua's OCS ball
surprisingly there's a huge population of AC people in that wing. so it felt like prom all over again lol

i watched another chick flick over this weekend ((:
"john tucker must die"
its quite a funny show. somewhat like the devil wears prada, but this time with a cute guy in it haha
but typical "ugly-duckling-turned-princess-after-losing-her-identity-and-then-finding-it" plot

during sunday school, we had a counselor come among us to conduct a relaxation workshop
we were asked to write down what stresses us within a shape we drew to represent ourselves, and then write down who we turn to when we're feeling down
i wrote down three names. or three entities.
and one of the names belong to this owner:




hahaha~ we were bored at mac's.

anyway. today's a very very very important day.
because it's the first time i've participated in service as part of the congregation in like, 3 years((:
its the first time for a looong loong while that im not playing the keyboard with the praise band.
and it feels really good to be praising God and worshipping Him and just letting the songs fill me
guess there're many small and simple ways for you to feel God's loving touch and love ((:



Come to the Father, though your gift is small
broken hearts broken lives, He will take them all
the power of the word, the power of His love
and everything was done, so you would come ((:

midnight rendezvous

ok first things first. i've been getting prank calls from a guy with a private number at unearthly hours these few weeks
just ytd night, i received a call at 6:25am, and the previous nights at 3-4am
so whoever you are, if you read my blog, may i extend my most courteous and polite invitation for you to FUCK OFF
because if you dont, i'm going to call the police and track you down

-

ok with that settled. aside from annoying harrassing anonymous callers, ytd night was pretty fun ((:
mac and i had a mini midnight rendezvous @ esplanade, complete with yummy hawker food at gluttons bay, and then chilling by the esplanade river
talking till 4am in the morning in the cool night breeze ((:
its actually pretty cold at night in singapore. but the cooler the better hehe~
i really like how the streets are soo empty late at night. the stark contrast btwn night and day is rather fascinating lol
also makes us feel like kings and queens walking on the road like nobody's business

check out the scene at cineleisure at about 1230am. pretty darn eerie haha.
but fascinating nonetheless.


driving today was pretty good too ((: one more month till the test.
im actually quite nervous about it, seeing the number of failures that occured just this month
even those who took auto failed very badly. sighh.
owell. we'll see how it goes ((:
if all goes well we just might have THREE new drivers by the end of october hehe~
funny how the 3 of us have test dates consecutively 3 days apart from each other =p

alright. looking forward to island creamery with the girls later! :D
icecream icecream icecream!!

on an ending note, from an email my dad sent me:
have you been THIS tired??

tickled

teaching tuition is fun (in a way) because sometimes when you enter a class thinking you're gonna teach, you leave realizing that you've been taught
sometimes, theres just way more to learn than just mathematical formulae or english synonyms
maybe a few facts of life, and a little spices to add to it..
but heres food for thought:
"The fact of life is that there are little facts of life"

its tuesday already. doesnt seem to bad for an odd week that i was dreading ((:
maybe because theres tons to look forward to, plus tons of new beginnings.
today on the bus, i heard an all too familiar song that made me press repeat over and over again

"in my loneliness, You were there
to reveal Your righteousness in my despair
Jesus i long for You
there is no one else, no one like You..

when i'm far away, You were there
to draw me back again, into Your care
Jesus, i long for You
there is no one else, no one like You.."

really reminded me of how blessed i am in so many ways
how things always seem to work themselves out, like some magical knots untying by itself
of how loved i am by Him, that He provides for everything that i need ((:
what more can i ask.

yayy cant wait for double dosage of icecream escapade that's coming my wayyy!!
cravings are meant to be satisfied irregardless of waist size :P
ohoh and today i had good food again. yes, i just have to blog about food because thats pretty much all i'm thinking of these days. sighh.
i had lunch with junlei at gecko's! ((:
both of us had roast chix with black pepper sauce, except he took rice n i took mashed potato
and it was finger-liciously satisfying mmhmmm! ((:
best of all.. ok broke-girl(s) listen for this part..it was CHEAP!!!!!! :D:D
yesyes, free advertisement for gecko's (i think thats it name) at forum central woots
our low-income-substitution for munchie monkey's haha
yaayyy ((:

ok anyway. i realized my dogs have funny/weird styles of sleeping
take for example, this:


okay. so it doesnt look too bad. but check out the close up shot.


crikey. i have no idea why her tongue has to stick out when she sleeps.

then theres ginger:

who has a thousand and one places to sleep in the house, but she chooses to sleep underneath my eeyore's big smiley face

ok i shall end off with quotable quotes. or laughable laughs. or whatever.
during CNM lecture today:
"the most illegal thing i've ever done is jay-walking"

-

huishi: sigh no more shopping till further notice!! :(

celine: haha yeah girl i got your email! hahaha i'll reply you tmr! haha lotsa time tmr especially since theres IT class. and sometimes we conveniently "forget" to pay attention hahaha

elaine: YEAH! island creamery! cant wait woots! im having icecream craving real bad now!!

p.s all quotes are obtained from sources from NUS.
so pls dont sue me for plagarizing

new laptop!

here's presenting my new baby ((:
yeah, its literally a baby, because its a baby acer, compared to my huge acer before i got this pretty baby..
its only like 1.5kg, so no need to strain all my arm muscles carrying it to and fro in sch anymore woots! :D





and credit goes to denis for giving me such a HUGEEE hand in collecting my laptop @ sch today
from coming down all the way to YIH to help me collect my laptop, to waiting for it to be checked and configured while i go for my lectures, to waiting for me to end lectures before passing me my laptop and instructions ((:
so.. heres a BIG thankyou to denis! hahaha
i owe you a meal! :D

school seems easier and more fun each week ((: altho d work load works in the same exponential function
it has come to a point tt mac and i actually studied on sunday >.<
an interesting change for after-church activities hahaha.
probably the only thing we can do especially since we're broke from shopping. and more shopping. and even more shopping haha
huishi can testify to that. i think. sighh. brokegirl87.

joshua's back from sailing!! :D yayy my talk-cock buddy's back.
welcome back to land. i think you'd prefer earth to water haha
now my phone's gonna ring whenever he's on the bus on his way home hahaha

anyway. the word dry spell has left me kinda bereft of words to say.
so i shall end the post with a picture of the guys on sunday. or at least juz 2 of them
since i only bothered taking out my camera at the start haha
so heres a rather.. gaYy looking pict before i say byebye

argh

it sucks to be all alone at home when you're sick and feeling shitty.
bah, scrap that.
it sucks to be sick. period.

refuge of love

a revisit to the good ole playground, that has been my source of refuge and tranquility for the past few years
its funny how a simple place unlocks so many diff emotions and conjurs so many memories, both good and bad
but its a purrfect place for a nice midnight talk about life, about everything ((:

my body is aching like a 90-year-old grandmother right now because of rockclimbing!
it hurt so bad that when i tried to do my german homework like some of those muggers i know in german class, my hands were shaking so badly tt i dropped the pen -.-
but in exchange for all that misery we got our level one cert!
we spent the whole saturday at NUS rock gym learning belaying, bouldering and climbing ((:
i really dont know why you feel such an adrenaline rush climbing a fake fiber-glass wall with footholds and handholds, but it feels damn good being able to scale the hard walls
of course, with lots of professional help from everyone :p
but it was a good workout. i think i havent used so much arm power in my life..


anyhow. i finally watched this ((:
and it was more than just a fashion-galored brand-runway show like i expected
it was a pretty nice chick flick (albeit with a tad-too-predictable plot)
BUT still.. a nice change to the action & horror films i've been watching lol

so blessed, i cant contain it
So much, I've got to give it away,
Your love taught me to live now
You are more than enough for me.. ((:
