a part of history

a party to remember...

tscf's 70th anniversary...

as winsome shared, something resonated in my heart... though i can't quite point out wat it was... it was small... but i caught it. i caught it. I just pray that God will work it out even when I'm not quite sure what it was...

the call to be faithful...

not abt the outcome... but just to be faithful in spreading the word...

not abt how many friends you bring to Christ... but about u being faithful in carrying out wat He has set before you...

it's really inspiring to see the many graduates that came... and to know that 60-70 had gathered in the party to rmb in KL, some 50+ in Spore, 120 in Welly... it's our privilege indeed to be a part of history...

when i looked through the autograph book, i flipped through the malaysia and spore section...

"Johnson Goh"

my heart skipped a bit.

spore.

ok.

diff handwriting anyway.

this IS God's ministry, therefore we do not lose heart. the God that has carried them through all these years, sustained them to run the race with perseverance, is the same God tt'll equip us accordingly to run the race He has set before each of us.

the torch has been passed on to us... a torch that we'll pass on...

but while we're holding it, are we being faithful to what He has called us to?

specially dedicated to Jane

couldn't comment on ur blog so here's a post for you! ;p

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. "

I have received from Him and it is only my privilege to be able to share with you :)

v5. "For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows."

Let Him heal you...

v6 "...if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer."

patient endurance my dear, patient endurance.

v7 "and our hope for u is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also u share in our comfort"

i used to think that all the sufferings mentioned refers to physical sufferings. but now i know and testify that God comforts us in EVERY situation. in Christ, our comfort overflows. no "repay" talk here ok? this is wat sisters are for :)

be strong in the Lord.

*big hug* for u :)

slacker

i'm such a slacker~

the way i lived the past week, it's like i'm on holiday already~ though i was feeling a little under the wind yest, i headed out to Aromoana with Deb & Renee. OCF was awesome last night. was planning to stay up and get somewhere with my assignment but i just knocked off right after i showered. spent most of my day out today, shopping for a gift etc. then it's Jen's bday dinner... just came back. i won't say i totally forgot abt my assignment. it's there, somewhere @ d back of my mind... yet, there's no sense of urgency. perhaps i have to wait until Sunday night? then the panicky adrenaline rush might just let me pull an all nighter and spew out all 2000 words @ a go. ugh. my coffee supply is sufficient i guess. but i don't really wanna get caffeine intoxication by the end of Monday.

after Jen's bday, i blogged somemore. and this is my 2nd post (d 1st one: Dunedin OCF)

ok. it's really time to get down to work. Praying I'll get somewhere tonight. somewhere.

lazy afternoon~

i love lazy afternoons. or maybe i just love being lazy.

Wow~ I think i'm taking it a little too easy... considering I just met Moyra @ d Ling dept's reception.

"How's the assignment going?"

"Um... it's erm... getting going..."

ah well~

Baked a carrot cake for CCG. still considering if i have the courage to present them with the cake. 1st time recipes are always scary~ but of course, the many times (in fact all the time!) I prayed for God's blessings to turn my water into wine (in my situations it would be turning tasteless disasters into something more appealing) have never failed.

Quite happy with this thing I played ard with: Dunedin OCF

so cool~ wish i took more pictures throughout the year. good memories. but then again, i always fear to look @ myself in photos. I've allowed myself to grow a bit (understatement) more sideways than I should have. unknowingly. photos just bring u back to reality i guess.

robert harris' not satisfying my palate enough. should have just gotten rift valley blend instead.

heading off to Prof. Paul Trebilco's inaugural professorial lecture. aft tt would be CCG social @ Greg's and BS @ P&P's. doesn't seem like i'm gonna get any work done. or perhaps it'll be another late night?

(can't think of a title)

my laptop's acting up again. no surprise. i've got an assignment due soon. but i guess in a way it does stop me from being distracted. but then again i think those distractions are pretty good. after all, it's not the eve of assignment due date yet.

now my printer's spewing out documents of i know not what. sent too many jobs over perhaps? it was reprinting stuff by itself. scary~

I just realised tt my duration of "suffering" is proportional to my efficiency. so i guess i am responsible for my own misery...

bball anyone? (u gotta be as lousy as i am)

time to run for class. i am already late~

getting organised again

my little "treat" didn't turn out. am quite keen on "The Witches" (based on Roald Dahl) but... ah well. kinda disappointed but nvm. headed out for dinner instead. it was a good time-out session.

once i got home after dinner, i got bombarded by heaps of stuff. wait a minute, i'm not quite ready yet, let me sort myself out a bit first. even walking out in the rain was appealing for tt moment. aft i got my lect stuffs frm BB (home connection can't access BB), I am determined to get back on track. it's about time i guess. getting organised would be a good place to start. yes, i am that sorta person. somehow i've allowed things to get so messy i have lost myself in the midst. well, everything is everywhere and i'm looking for something which is somewhere in that pile of everything.

couple of hours later, i finally cleared up my desk a bit. got all my notes sorta out. cleared up my files a little. listed all the to-dos and deadlines. ok, i think i'm ready for real work. but... my body's already signalling it's time for bed. in my "younger" days, staying up late wouldn't be a problem. now... my body's just aching with fatigue eh.

so there goes a whole night dedicated to sorting things out. not sure if tt's a good step. now i'm pulled back to reality with the whole lot of to-dos, with not enough time for everything. i guess with superb time management it's very manageable, but then again, i was never good with time management...

help!

i can survive this...

3.5 weeks to go.

pls keep me in prayers...

Physical Activity = key to good health

i've got 10 minutes.

what was initially an urge to do basketball has just been translated into a trip to Briscoes. it's 4:43pm. I'm getting picked up in 10 mins. say @ least 5 mins drive to Briscoes and Briscoes shut @ 5pm. hmmmmm...

d urge to do some physical activity was growing during Pete's lect. not just anything, but something interactive, like bball or netball (not tt i know how to play any of them). even captain's ball sounds tempting. maybe i should pick up tennis.

i miss tk. fang n pq are always ready for any sports. or even in presby d bball court is just down there. or a run along the ecp park connector, which leads u to the beach. besides, it's never too cold. sigh. i even miss ACES day~ not that i was a super hyperactive kid back then but the level of inactivity here is shocking. maybe i should move to the top of london st, then whether i want to or not, i have to walk up n down the hills. unless i become a hermit and miss all my lectures.

ok, time to "run". i guess i shall have to satisfy with walking down aisles in Briscoes.
