finally got back all my degree assignments and i'm so so happy to say that i've completed my degree!!! :D

wanna praise and thank God for the unexpected fatastic result i got for my last assignment of my degree! this was the 3500 word essay that i was cracking my brains what to write about. i was unsure my assignment made sense when i submitted it. so i was expecting to fail or either get a pass grade, but i got a HD instead! i thank God for that! Jesus gets all the glory! where would i be if it weren't for God watching me the whole time.. i thank you Jesus!

with God all things are possible! :)



the girls went shopping today, and the boys - matthew and clara's bf went to watch dark knight. but it was practically mummy's shopping day because we didn't get anything, but mummy got what she wanted.. so while waiting for mummy to try her clothes, etc, we decided to take some photos.. haha

and this was some hideous looking shoe that mummy was trying..
eeek..

clara and her pedicure session with grandma.. haha

the princesses..
blythe and i

veron is a super happy happy happy person right now because she has just submitted her last assignment for her degree!!!!!!!!!!!

yays yays yays!! :)) praise the Lord!!!

no more writing at least for a while..

sanney introduced this song, Desert, from the latest hillsong album. a powerful anointed song!
the lyrics speaks so much. so much. so much. there's still so much to learn and grow into.

and especially after hearing the testimony of the lady, i totally salute her! she's truly truly a testimony of a woman of faith of the almighty God!

in a nutshell, even though she lost her baby just 1.5 wks before the recording of the album, she still went on stage to lead the congregation to worship. only a person who believes that God is in control no matter how bad the circumstance may be to them, could have the courage and energy to do what she needed to do on the night of the album recording.

the song just sums up everything that i've been learning on sunday. we don't praise God only when we feel like it. we praise Him even when we don't feel like it. it's hard at first, but if we persevere, breakthroughs will come! i've experienced it for myself. through ups and downs, God is still God, watching over me in every season.

PRAISE IS A FUNCTION OF YOUR WILL, NOT YOUR EMOTION. - Pastor Amos

we also have to position ourselves to look at things from God's perspective. God is still God and He will not change.
like how people and building will look small and smaller as the aeroplane flies higher and higher into the sky, our problems will look smaller and smaller as we "fly" higher and higher to seeing things from God's perspective. because as we fix our eyes on God, we forget about the problem because our God is bigger than our problem.

This is my prayer in the desert
When all that’s within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides

This is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flame

I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

This is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on its way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I’ll stand

I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

This is my prayer in the harvest
When favour and providence flow
I know I’m filled to be emptied again
The seed I’ve received I will sow.

(took the lyrics off sanne's blog.
wanted to just copy the lyrics, but i would have bold the words you bold too, so i just left it the same. hope you don't mind sanney.. ;) )

ever thought whether it was possible for a straw to poke through a raw potato?

here it is..

you think it's a magic trick? absolutely not.. this experiment can be done at home.. haha.

it's all in the mind. if you think you can means you can. the power of positive thinking.

i can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.

one assignment down!!!
left ONE ONE ONE more assignment for my degree!!! so happy lar.. but it's a freaking 3500 word long essay and i got one and a half weeks to complete.. haa. :/

our trip back to mg last week.

sanney and me

ben and jerry's ice-cream!
esther and me.

we went to mummy's office.. obviously after working hours. haha.
very very big. well, it's an MNC, so what do you expect.

at mummy's desk

MUMMY and her girl! :))
and the other daughter! <3
the day clara got discharged! really happy she's back!

mummy's office has these vending machines!

matthew was treating the office like his home.. he even went to refill the ice cube box with water.


the unbeatables team of two!

blythe and me

YAYS! finally got the latest shakers CD! way cool! :D
where would we be without the grace of God? God is just so merciful, gracious and ever loving me for me.. it was because of God's love that He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross so that we can have this relationship with Jesus.


met up with sanney and esther today.. sanney was back like since friday, but i only managed to see her till today! it was really short, but still thankful that i got to spend quality time with her. :))
did so much catching up with both sanney and esther and I realised one thing. so far, this year has been a year of transition. last year was great. but things are going to get even better this year. God's challenging each of us to a higher level, pushing us out of our comfort zone to live for Him. He wants us to keep growing stronger in Him and not stay stagnant at where we're comfortable at.. though changes are not something we like, but at the end of the road, we know that it'll be something incredible that we wouldn't exchange anything for it.
[tan meiling! esther and i have already set that we four are so going to meet up again when you and sanney are back at the end of the year!]


ANOTHER THING TO SCREAM ABOUT IS...

MY DEAREST SISTER IS COMING HOME TOOMMMORRRROOWWW!!! FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY SHE CAN BE OUT OF THE HOSPITAL!!!!
thank you Jesus for healing her! and that she didn't have to go through any op..


A RANDOM NOTE,
i have yet to even open my textbook to do the first assignment of my masters course and my group mates are already planning to meet THIS WEEK to discuss the assignment question.. i repeat, THIS WEEK, when class just ended on sun. scary lar..

i'm not even done with my other degree assignments. still left two! haa...

starbucks dark chocolate mocha frappe is the new lovee! <3

my new adopted jie, blythe. i'm her mei mei. hee.. :D really thank You Jesus for sending her into my life! she has taught me so so much and there's still more to come.. thank you Blythe jie.

she taught me this balloon trick too.. so cool lar.
can you poke a satay stick through a balloon without bursting it? try it..
i did it, and so can you! (:

simple words, yet it speaks so much.. quoted from blythe..

Its not just an image,
its courage.

When genuine passion moves us.

Poke it real hard,

even if it burst.

Without passion, there will be no actions!

PRAISE THE LORD! so so happy that she's finally recovering!

though the doctor said her condition wasn't optimistic at first and a surgery might be involved, BUT, my GOD is is is a HEALER!

life is never fair, but God gives each one of us a chance to BELIEVE! whose report were we going to believe?

we chose to believe that our God is a supernatural God that will intervene in her condition, and a miracle took place and she's on her way to speedy recovery! she looks so much better than the past few days! can't wait for her to be home! :D

another assignment down, just two more to go! YAYS!

if only
if only
if only i could just turn back the clock...

(never live life on if-only's. it's too late to regret anything.)





I'M MISSING DADDY BIG TIME!

what an eventful evening! met up with the s6 girls today.. and guess what, it was a DRESSES day becos my sis and christina said so! it's been so so long since i wore a dress la. haha. kinda felt weird at first, but got used to it after a few hours?!! LOL!

we went to watch the incredible hulk. not too bad a show, but the ending's so abrupt and horrible! confirmed to have part 3..

grace. clara. christina. eunice. veron

cathay cineplexes are still the best!
many memories in this building..

what has jc done to you???
you grew taller a little, now with BLUE coloured nail polish and you lost brain cells.

DRESSES DAY!!!

L.O.V.E
love makes the world go round.. haha
i find this picture so cool.. the sunlight effect together with the "heart shaped" frame.

taken at the istana park..
prretttty girls!

finally we get to eat at giraffe. it was our long awaited date to eat at this restaurant since dunno when.. all of us were first timers except miss grace who went to eat without us. haa

on the 2nd floor
this was their main course..
wouldn't say it's a fantastic restaurant when it comes to food. but the ambience is nice.
the portion of the food is not worth the price you're paying. haha

this is the dessert!
very nice deco! but again, not worth it..
finally, we decided to head back to a place where we could call home in town..
our most fav place -- the office :D
did quite a bit of catching up with everyone's life and just reminiscing our past years together..
<3

GOOD JOB WORSHIP TEAM!

it was an awesome time of fellowship and bonding during our outing last week! (: we went to eat steamboat at bugis. food wise was pretty okay only, not a wide variety of food. thought the marina one was better? haa. but at least we got almost the whole place to ourselves cos it was quite empty.

after that we headed down to minds cafe. it was my first time there.. quite a nice place to play games, but a bit costly? aniwaes, it was FUN! :D so we played taboo and jenga. taboo was the singaporean version and it's not as easy as it seems.. lol. and i haven played jenga for like so long. we were or rather i was like reliving my childhood days.. haha

shall let the photos do the talking..

before we started the steamboat..

dino was so into the game. he was totally concentrating.. haha.
this was taken just before the whole tower collapsed.

met up with our A1 pple.. everyone just finished year 2, except for the guys, and now they're working as an intern or working part-time.. two and a half years flew by just like that.. but "scandals" (*coughs, mrs hohoho and mrs leow) and nick names will always still remain.. i believe that's what made our class unique and different from the rest..

it was a good time of catching up, laughing, and reminiscence of our sch days.. the turn up was pretty good too.. haha.

i miss our a1 days!
