:: long time ::

hmm.. long time no online..

anyway i juz made an observation. i learnt one thing abt myself... i seem to be able to get comfortable with non-christian guys, but i'm juz not comfortable around christian guys.. maybe tt's y all the guys i realli like r non-christians? this is quite terrible, so i pray tt God will change my mindset.

anyway today is also the day i become v convicted tt the purpose for our lives is to carry out the Great Commission. instead of just being interested in our personal spiritual growth, we ought to evangelise in everywhere we go n everything we do. tt's y i'm so attracted to missions. esp overseas mission, where i can c diff nationality pple worshiping God in diff languages!

i hope u guys r convicted of evangelism too... fulfil the Great Commission together!

:: fate ::

supposed to meet ting in sch to run at 10am... but i felt lazy.. (still in bed at 9am!) hahaha... then changed plan to go walk walk in causeway point. she took a taxi to meet me n found a wallet at the backseat! fate sia... the wallet got a lot of orange and blue colour notes!

we had lunch at Jack's Place (nan de i feel like splurging - my own money la) n we kept joking and laughing in there... the appetiser was great, but main course so-so onli. after taking our time to walk around, we took mrt to fajar to return the wallet to the owner.

the owner was v v happy to get her ic back on top of so much money n she gave us a $50 note to reward us! of cuz being nice sweet little powerpuff girls we refused at first. but she realli insisted cuz she was realli grateful, so we accepted it. (i was thinking, out of so much money, $50 seems like a small amt to her!) ting n i laughed abt it cuz we had joked abt this earlier on, n it came true! anyway we parted at cck mrt.

i went to sch for cca. shared with my dg abt the incident. today is sharing time n we used the time to encourage each other with verses. there's one i found in my quiet time - "Be sure to do what you should, for then you will enjoy the personal satisfation of having done your work well, and you won't need to compare yourself to anyone else." Galatians 6:4 - cuz as u all noe, i'm a person with v v low self esteem, always not able to take pride in my work... hope this verse will lift my spirits whenever i feel down again!

after dg went for connection. watch the last part of Passion of the Christ... v gruesome... itz to remind us tt Christ died for our sins, so we ought to live redeemed lives. there's another story to illustrate this theory: there was once a man called george. he has wife n a son n a job at a railway station. his job is to operate the bridge further down the station, to lower it for trains to pass. one day his wife died, n george had to bring his son along to work because there would be no one else to take care of him at home. his son likes to play by the railroad but is careful to keep away from trains whenever his dad warns him. one day, a train arrived ahead of schedule. george's son was playing by the railway as usual, but george was unable to warn him this time. as the train neared the bridge, he had to make a decision to lower the bridge n kill his son or to keep the bridge raised, n kill everyone on the train. at this time, he made the decision, to lower the bridge. think abt this, there were countless pple on the train, a family having lunch together on the train, a couple chatting happily, children running abt... all of them did not know tt george's son had died so tt they could still live. of cuz u can say itz the son's fault to be ignorant of the train's arrival, but its juz an analogy, of a person having to sacrifice a life to save many. these pple ought to cherish their lives even more if they knew tt they could have died instead.

anyway after connection i went to blk L to do my authoring assignment... then got my dad to fetch me... waited for him until i got 4 mosquito bites sia~!

:: no slp n slp ::

i worked on my web design assignment 1 the whole sunday nite... itz due on monday n i still got a lot not done.. typical me la... anyway i nv slp at all, felt a bit weak on my way to sch, but dun realli feel tired... i think if i slp i will want to slp more. authoring lesson is rubbish, waste time onli.... went to library to borrow the thai book again.

on my way home i keep slping on the bus... v reluctant to wake up and walk home. when i reached home i went to slp immediately.. woke up for a phone call but went back to lalaland after tt. i rem dreaming abt wanling joining us for lessons, i also dreamt tt i went to malaysia by myself. boarded a ferry. i was standing while the ferry was still at dock, i turned around n saw yau toking to someone beside me... then i quickly turned back. he asked tt person behind me, "wad's she doing here?" n i was kinda afraid wad will happen next... he got off the ferry n i nv saw him again. this ferry went to the kelong where i met him... i juz travelled without a purpose... unknowingly got myself there...

anyway i slept until my mom woke me up for sch.. my sis had already left... i rem waking up at around 3am to wipe my drool... (oops!) n i heard a door close... wondered how come at tt time someone is still awake. quite reluctant to wake up for jap class.. kinda expected some stupid games session.. when i arrived they were listening to music... doraemon.. -.-" then we did some japanese workout, played bingo, played janken pon (hei bai pei).. i won 3 rounds... haha.. went to library to read the latest Home Concepts magazine then went to chunfang's hse to borrow vcds...

i wan to sell my stuff away... feel tt i dun need so many stuff anyway... when i die itz also easier to clear my things tt way... hmm.. haha..

:: back ::

got a lot of my feelings to share suddenly... well i've been filming for the last week already, itz realli not easy acting, i doubt i'll be an actress... act as nerd girl in hx's scripts still can. haha..

yday, sat no cell grp. went to ling's house to meet the grp.. her dog v cute.. but, i still always always prefer cats~! had pizza n ice cream..yummy~ then we took taxi out to ecp for outdoor shooting. took quite a while to find the "perfect" spot, n to set up all tt... the worrying thing is tt they only had a battery tt can last for not very long. there was a point i suddenly imagined that i saw yau, n he was threatening to kill me.. then i realised tt i had been imagining things, n i also realise tt i looked v worried.. i dun think the rest of the pple noticed la.. anyway when it was my turn to act it was very fast.. i myself think tt i din do a good job, but peilin decided to wrap up the day after a few diff angles, n just one take each, of my scene.

then we walked out.. mi n peilin walked a very very long way to Parkway parade for dinner at Yoshinoya's. she treat me to the kare don thingy... not bad onli.. but we had heart to heart talk, for very long, juz to share how we feel abt things, how's our personality like towards things, wad kinda guys we like etc.. then we took bus home.. when we boarded the bus 62 i saw some guys, they're quite cute la.. but then later i realised tt they r the ones i saw b4, who live at the same block as mi.. i wonder if they noticed mi, n i imagined them telling each other to wait for me (i walked quite slowly n one of them turned around once in a while).. o.0 hehehehehe

anyway this morning i overslept.. supposed to wake up at 5am but i snoozed my alarm clock... in the end woke up at 6.30! panic sia.. i rushed (thank God i packed my bag last nite) out at around 7am (supposed to meet persis they all at 7 at harbourfront) waited quite long for a cab. tt taxi driver siao de, sped all the way sia! he onli slowed down where there was a traffic accident (n police were around the area) but not long after tt he picked up speed again! i was like thinking to myself: "Lord pls dun let me get into an accident... i realli want to go balai v much!!" i reached at 7.20am... not so bad, managed to catch everyone chatting at delifrance.. haha

i dunno how many times i've said this, but i realli miss the balai pple a lot... miss until wan to cry sia..

reached liao balai then we took oplik to the church in baran dua. we waited for the door of the church to be opened as we walked around the pasar. bought soya bean drink from ah zui n maggi mee goreng n prendjak tea n some bubur kopi from the shops there. waited for the meral children to arrived then i started with leading worship for the sunday sch... my 1st time leading worship i guess.. i always have a problem praying out loud (not to mention in chinese or hokkien!), n also start singing with the music instruments..

persis shared the story of nehemiah building the wall of jerusalem.. then after tt the girls went upstairs to learn tamborine (rebana) dance from sarah. persis n i went out to buy teh-o bing for them.. saw ah yang... haiz he's like not attending church anymore.. =( asked wati abt her brothers n aimei.. had fried rice for lunch.. after tt wati's mom arrived with aimei... asked her mom abt frenky n wiky.. frenky had been back from tj pinang already, so i asked her wad's he doing now, y nv help in the church anymore... i realli feel sad tt he left church. she said he might come to church later.. but got to go work soon after tt. then wiky had been working after sch. haiz... i thot wiky had been spritually stronger than frenky, but he also quit church cuz of work. anyway i got to c frenky in the end.. felt quite happy, but it was v brief cuz he went to work b4 i cld tok to him.

after service we took the ferry back to singapore... sucks eh waited for half an hour b4 the ferry arrived.... then a lot of pple going back to singapore... no proper seats for us.. then i realli dun wan to sit beside all the DOM lor... =S in the end sat between 2 women. not so bad.. ate up my tempe n pisang goreng.. yummy~! had dinner at the food junction n got a ride from a chinese cong couple who also live in punggol.

:: nitemare ::

back at the camp, Ibu lita was around. she allowed mi to go back to pack my stuff.. the room i was in was kinda dark n built using planks of wood. while packing my stuff (i was alone) i saw ghosts.. but i didn't seem to be v affected by tt..

hmm tt's all i rem abt the nitemare...

:: dreams ::

been having v weird dreams this days... itz not common for mi to have dreams la. usually itz a not a gd sign. it means tt i haven't been slping well.

i rem on wed nite i dreamt that i was going thru a wedding ceremony with jiewei! we were at SAJC lecture theatre 2... v funny rite? halfway thru the ceremony, sort of a break time for us, i cldn't find jw anywhere.. i even looked for him at a "make up room".. but i decided tt i dun like the thought of losing my"husband" on my wedding day, so i rewinded my dream so tt he didn't "run away" at all. instead, halfway thru the ceremony, we decided to go out for a walk. tt place reminded mi of the old national library area, just tt the place looked more spacious, as if it weren't singapore. there was a building tt looked kinda futuristic. white+ glass, unique structure, single-level museum tt housed design materials n articles. after walking thru it we decided tt we've been out for a long time, should go back to continue our ceremony... well i hadn't looked into the mirror so i didn't actually c myself in a gown.

hahaha... up till here r u laughing like mad already?

cuz i got a weird dream last nite too. i dreamt tt i was a guy.. i rem vaguely tt i have a deep voice, n tt i had a crush on a girl. i was in a room with a group of abt 10 pple, in a v old building... doesn't seem like modern singapore also.. it was the birthday of one of the guys. it seems tt the tradition of celebrating the birthdays with this grp of pple is to trick the guy into believing tt he's not welcome among us, n then after tt we wld surprise him with warm birthday greetings. so we started to leave the room, leaving him to be the last. he couldn't catch up with us. we went inside a lift to go downstairs. dunno how come rachael chen was with us too.. so i asked her y were we doing this, treating tt poor guy like tt.. so she explained wad we wld do to surprise him later. first we juz have to avoid him. when the lift reached the first level, we saw a lot of kids, itz like we were in a pri sch. i went "hiding" with the girl tt i like. we went to the sch field... it was like an amusement park with roller coasters. i saw many weird but fun-looking machines. we sat together somewhere and took out our laptops. she asked if i joined this virtual chat community. i have, so i decided to surf the website. i tried to type out the web address but i seem to keep typing wrongly. i rem hugging her too.. she had long hair n was wearing white long sleeved. tt's y i think i dreamt as myself as a guy.

hmm.. tt's all the details i can recall. then esther called to wake mi up, to go church early.

i've been to clarke quay mrt station twice these few days. but i wasn't armed with my camera... cuz i saw views that i realli want to capture on my camera. the cat tt was on the steps at the mrt station, was still at the same spot. if i get to c it there at the same place again, i wld take a photo of it n name it the resident cat of clarke quay mrt station! anyway, at the entrance of the mrt station was swissotel merchant court hotel. swissotel....... reminds mi of bryan... suddenly all the memories juz came back to me.. i thot of the times we went out... hmm.. kinda miss him.. argh, then again... =S

well, when memories come back to me, usually itz a sign of PMS. jus to clarify, guys, PMS means pre menstrual syndrome, not something tt happens DURING. at least, tt's for me la.
