You chose this game of Chase. You picked me to be your partner in this game. But you never told me the rule was that you were going to hide from me after you have won. How am I supposed to react? What is the antonym of love then? Maybe I shouldn't have assumed. I should have asked.
Nontheless, happy birthday to you.

We're approaching the end of the week, all drained as i battled to get out of bed. After a long shower to wake myself early this morning, I switched on my phone and saw a message. The message was from a church member of mine who was sharing a testimony of how God had answered our prayers for his family. We've been praying for his family for a couple of weeks and I was indeed overjoyed to hear that pleasant piece of news early this morning. A great way to start the day. That gave me renewed strength and reminded me how God is still working in our lives even when we don't see or feel it.The tiredness immediately worned off when I started to praise Him for His goodness and read His Word -- the best way to kick start a day. I received a new revelation of a verse I was reading this morning. "I will proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night". Psalm 92:2This verse reminded me to proclaim His love for us and set our thoughts on Him to gain strength for the day. We then thank Him at night for His faithfulness as we reflect on how He has helped us and been with us throughout the day. Great to find new meaning to live each day.

Yes Bao Yue, life IS indeed good after German test! I'm blogging now in school immediately after my Geman paper proclaiming that life is indeed good after it is over. Not that I don't like German, but it is the thought of having to study and do well for every test that puts me off sometimes because there is no final term paper. I'm finally having a breather, since i've completed my German test and Philo paper. Next step is to tackle presentations and essays for the other modules. Nevertheless, that shouldn't be very much of a problem as I stay on task pretty well...Carine, Maybelline just said you're an angel. She's just right next to me..*Stop kicking up a big fuss out of nothing in front of me. I'm not interested.

The Jumbled-Up CharactersIt was a great night last night, meeting up with the usual group, being oblivious to the people around us and just being immersed in the company of each other. We took a journey down part of Singapore's most happening night spots to see how different pubs and clubs were. Majority from the outside at least. Our journey started with NewAsia Bar, to Ink bar, to Chjimes, to Clarke Quay, to Boat Quay's Forbidden City and finally to Fullerton. (The journey continued for the rest of them. I left before them. That was already 1plus btw.)It is really amazing how different characters could come and stay together. One who starts talking at the top of her voice once midnight strikes, one who will constantly remind her to lower her volume. One who has all the supressed emotions and is just waiting for all hell to let loose. The other one who used to be criticising a lot in the past but who has mellowed down, (Lynn will disagree with me after last night.. T-A-F) one who will always accept all criticisms by the criticiSERS with grace. Finally the other one I haven't met in a long time, so i can't comment in this way. *You go figure out who I'm talking about. --Disclaimer. If you think the above description sounds like you, trust me, it's just purely coincidental.Lynn asked last night, what is one thing you'll want from Doraemon's bag. She said she wanted something to look into the future. I don't want that. Funny how I would rather linger in the past. In life, there are many decisions we have to make. I would rather have this equipment that allows me to see the outcomes of the decisions could have made, meaning what COULD HAVE happened and how my life WOULD HAVE been different if I made a different choice through my course of life.

I bought ANOTHER set of necklace and earrings again. The last I bought an earring was only Sunday. I need to exercise self-restrain! This is the weakest area I can never overcome! Because my friend was late today, I was just hanging around when i saw that jewellery set. I started to stare at it but my sound mind kept telling me not to buy it, since I have tonnes of jewelleries. Then this aunty came to me and asked me if I could be her model for a while as she wanted to buy one for her daughter. Once she put it on me, she kept commenting that I looked good in it and that I should buy it. That was when I gave into my temptation. In a nutshell, it's that aunty's fault for tempting me, as well as my friend's fault for being late, that caused me to spend unnecessary money. (excuses to make myself feel less guilty for buying nonsense)
This friend of mine never fail to impress me. Each time we go out, he'll show me different parts of Singapore we usually don't take notice of. It'll be like a get-to-know Singapore better in all aspects each time i'm with him.
We went to Out Of The Pan at Raffles City for lunch today. Food was not too bad, just that it was a little pricey, but i guess that's they price you have to pay for quality.
That's my adventure for today. Tomorrow's Thursday, last day of my break. How great is that, not getting any work done at all??

The bible recitation segment for the Children's Ministry on Christmas is finally done after much editing and thoughts. Up next will be getting the children for rehearsals and memorising the verses. I'm at least glad that i'm getting more and more things on my to-do-list striked off, even though one down, many more to go. However, i'm not grumbling at all these things i've to do. I've learnt to rejoice in every circumstance. I've been through and pulled through the worst. I've learnt to stand from where I fell, even though it was through the hard way. I believe nothing will pull me down again.
My grandma accepted Christ 3 weeks ago. I gave her a bible last night. Though she can't really read well, but I trust that God will open a way for her. Her first reaction was "my teeth all dropping already, now then ask me to hit the books again." She tried reading it and asked me how to read certain words along the way. Since it was a Chinese bible, i spent half the time telling her i can't read it, rather than telling her how to read the word. I MUST brush up on my Chinese!! (I promise i'll at least try..)
*There isn't much time in life for us to "get used" to the new circumstances we're in. We just have to move on. -- Quoted from the much changed Sam.

This is the my very first blog entry. Thank you Paul (Polly) so so much for this very pretty blog skin. This indeed gives me motivation to update my blog regularly. Guess i'll spend all my time on my blog whenever I have breaks in school now, so just leave me alone!
Today's the start of my mid-sem break. I'm not going to start on my essays that will be due once school starts because I'm more concerned with playing with my new toy, for now...
Sam will be so excited to see this blog.. Unfortunately he's confined in army all alone now, thanks to his playfulness. Apparently he was playing ball games in his bunk and broke a couple of glass pieces. He's serving his punishment now.
