Decided to remove this post as it may be considered offensive to some.

Oh well, for whatever reason it may be, I can only pray that you will realise what you're doing and may God continue to touch your heart more and more each day.

Raining

It's raining outside now, wondering whether I should head home... feelings are a tricky thing, for with the downcast weather outside, my heart also feels downcast. Why so? It's a question that I wish I can answer myself. Suddenly I'm flooded with thoughts that makes me think deeper... what are they? I guess it's something that I wish only to keep to myself.

Life can be really funny I guess. In all manners, I never realise that things can happen the way they happened. Was it coincidence? But I'm reminded that there is a season and a reason for things that's happening and I guess... maybe it is not so much of a coincidence there. What we feel are coincidences are probably what God has planned for us, pre-destined maybe? Nah, something that I would not want to speculate on I guess.

Still thinking and pondering... still living in a world where things are going crazy around me and where people wonder what the heck are they doing what they are doing...

Lord Jesus Christ, may Your hands continue to be upon my life.. may You continue to lead me and guide me, showing me what You have in store for me. I'm learning to be patient and wait on You... and really, it ain't easy... but then again, life has never been easy... but with hope I believe I go through this...

Thank You for always...

Bad day to begin with

Today started off badly... wasn't in a good mood to begin with. Boss flew in from Singapore as we have a meeting with client today. So yea, my boss asked me questions which I answer mono-syllabic style. At 1020am, I walked towards my car, intending to wait for my boss at the office downstairs. Walked towards my car, saw my tyre.. it was flat. I guess I was feeling very flat, coz when I saw my car condition, lagi no mood.. but no mood to care. Called office, spoke to the admin, told her tyre punctured, my boss asked at the other side, so how? I said, call cab.. we're going times square.. and headed back to my office.

When in the office, my boss was like.. "what happened?"
I said, "tyre punctured".

While we're waiting for cab, again my boss asked, "so what we're waiting?"
I said, "cab."

While in the cab, he was asking me about some of the ongoing projects as well as potential ones, awaiting confirmation. Again, I only said what's needed. No mood to talk much to him.

Suddenly he asked, "has it been raining?"
I was like "huh?"
Again, "has it been raining? It's quite hot here."
I had to think for a while whether it was raining anot.. then I was like, "Got. Yday and Sunday also rained"
"Was it heavy?", he asked.
"Yea, very heavy, sunday afternoon"....

then it was quiet again...

After meeting, had lunch with my colleague who met us at the client site. Superbly hungry...
Then took a cab back to the office. Walked to the auto repair shop that's around the corner (THANK GOD for it) and waited for the guy to help me fix my tyre.

The repairman also super selamba, taking his own sweet time to get his tools. Probably stood there for like 10 minutes waiting for him. Lucky I'm in my no feel mood. Else I think siao liao...

Neways, got it fixed for like RM10. BUt need to send the flat tyre to another shop to check. Haven't told my dad though. Sian.

By the time I got into the office it was already 3pm. What a day... after settling some matters with other clients... I only managed to start doing my report at about 430/5pm. My day just started...

Work - crunch time

Yeap, it's that time of my work again, where things are extremely stressful and I'm cracking my brain to write a report. Seriously, I realise that if you have to stress yourself so much just for an hour's report, then I guess there must be something wrong. Guess I'm not blessed with an analytical brain that would allow my thoughts to flow easily.

Am seriously considering of changing job... anyone can recommend anything? Aih, gotta keep praying and seeking God in this I guess...

Father, please remove the spirit of complaining in me and rather, to turn to You in all aspects Lord. I know it's tough, but I do thank You for the opportunity to work here and to learn what I'm good at. Please Lord, continue to direct my future and my path...

Worship with Abandon

Lord, thank you for your reminder... to worship with an abandonce.. to Not to care about what other people thinks about my singing, but remember and know the fact that I'm singing only for you and you alone.

Life is weird, when things are least expected, and when you think you remember... God actually comes and tell you, hey.. remember this? Got a reminder about what worship is all about as I read the article on ChristianityToday.com. GOd works misteriously eh... well.. am reminded, and will keep reminding myself once again ...

Saturday and I'm thinking about work

How boring can my life be? It's Saturday morning and I'm thinking about work already! ARGHHH... ain't good ain't good. Sigh, and early in the morning my boss sms me asking the status of one of the project. Still contemplating of replying him.. haha.. sigh... I dread this. I don't like to write report. Am I cut out for this job? Again, a time of questioning for myself. If I'm not cut out for this, what should I be looking for?

Sigh, another day of sitting in front of the computer and do up my report I guess. Am slowly having a better grasp of what I need to write, I think.... well... I'll just do it and see how things turn out. Can I finish it by Tuesday? Am not sure, but will try to at least finish 10 slides today. That's a rather achievable aim :P Well, doing up 10 slides ain't as easy as it seems. Never thought it would be so tough! Proven tough as I was helping my boss with his presentation and also in the last report that I did too. 68 slides on telling the client the end result of the study. Phew... can't believe it myself! Haha... sigh!!! This report should end up being about that many slides too... tensionnyaaaaaaa...

OKOKOKOKOK..... no more talking about work eh. Should just kick my ass and get things working! Till now!

Relationship

Realised that it aint easy when it comes to relationship... so many things come into play. More so if the other party is far away in another country. How do you handle it? Are all distance relationship doomed? Would there be an exception? I do hope in this case that it would be. If both are willing to work things out, who knows? Only God would know. All the more so that we must involve God in the picture.

We can only do so much, but realising the fact that loving someone is actually an action rather than just a feeling makes a big difference too. People fall in and out of love easily, but it takes work and commitment to love someone. The world view love as a feeling, but I figure, it's just not as simple as that right? Makes you wonder about the times back in the past where arranged marriage takes place. Love was not in the picture when they got together, but both parties work to make things work for them and in turn I guess, work towards loving their spouses too.

I'm sure there are incidences where you think that you don't like that person. But as you get to know that person, as you spend time to know that person, as you learn about that person, you figure, hey, he or she ain't that bad either. Maybe I should not be so negative in the first place. Maybe certain couples are also similar in that aspect, starting of as just normal friends, but realised as you know that person that hey, maybe things may work between us too? Who knows? Only God knows I guess....

Never say that things are not possible, I believe all things are possible with God. So instead of just saying, I'm in love or I'm not in love anymore.. maybe we can work things out by saying, I will love...

May God continue to bless you and keep you, and may He continue to watch over the growth of your relationship. I am praying for the both of you and I do hope that things will work out for you two.

Blog change

OKay, just being the fickle-minded female species right now.. keke.. i know i've been changing blogs wayyy too often.. let's hope this template stays longer eh... tho might tweak it again here and there... shall see

Sicko day

Been sick since last Thursday. Started off with a sore throat. Went to see doctor on Thursday itself as I'm trying to avoid it being full blown since I have to make a trip to Singapore during the weekend for a friend's wedding (will update on that later). So when I came back, things were still fine. But I guess the lack of sleep and the freezing cold in church on Sunday afternoon itself caused me to get worse.

So Monday, went to work as usual... face flushed and all.. colleague saw me and asked, "are u ok? Ur face is so red... why don't u go home and rest?" I did after spending half a day at work going to the loo and drinking water. Doesn't help that the office is under renovation... super dusty n smells of paint! Went home and rested. Thought a night's rest would be enough, but have some premonition about it though, coz my body was aching as I got on the bed. Next day came, I couldn't get up at all! Went back to sleep till 10 plus. Woke up and went to see the doctor. Apparently body ache was due to my body fighting those nasty bugs in my body! So yeaps, MC for the day and was told to rest. Came home, ate some light lunch and took medicine. Very effective medicine I would say, coz I totally knockout after that. Slept till 5pm. That means whole afternoon was gone.

Today, still nursing myself. Did not go to work with the same reason, sick, but am working from home. Productive?? Not very sure as well, so see how things go then... still have a report to write, another brief to prepare and another questionnaire to set. All in due time I guess....

Good Bargain

Ok, those who follow this blog would know that I don't always blog about my shopping experience. I am still a girl and thus! Here's my shopping experience to share.

Due to a wedding on 7-7-07, I went on a shopping hunt for the dinner. Lo and behold, I went to Niichi that is having a huge bargain sale. Granted, the quality ain't exceptional good, but hey, girls don't always need to buy expensive clothes to wear since we are always on the hunt for for.. ahem, clothes and shoes and etc.. keke...

I got two long khakis pants for an insane price of RM15 each. Mind you, these khakis looks good, to the point where you can wear it to work. What more can you say???

Also, I bought 2 dresses (I know, I rarely wear them... but if there's occasion for it I definitely will wear) for less than RM100. These dresses are knee length dress in which you can wear for weddings or any formal functions. With my current obsession for green.. again, one of the dresses are green in colour with a low v neck design. In its simplicity, it looks lovely, just the way I like my clothes to be =) This is what I'll be wearing for the wedding this coming weekend.

I went a bit crazy too, and bought a very abstract designed top, consisting of yellow and brown. Those who knows me and seen me would noticed that my clothing are always simple and single colored. Haha... But hey, it's okay to be a bit crazy too! Wore it for church last Sunday and received a lot of comments.. "wah, you look so bright n different"... hahaa.. Nah, not hooking for compliments. Thought it's fun to be different sometimes :)

Interesting Read... who says God isn't real? Well, He is to me!

On a Saturday night several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer the phone.

The pastor let the phone ring many times... He thought it was odd that she didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.

The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night.

The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about. Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer." The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.

The man said, "That's, OK. Let me tell you my story.

You see, I was planning to commit suicide on Saturday night, but before I did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want me to do this, give me a sign now.' At that point my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to answer!"

The reason why it showed on the man's caller ID that the call came from "Almighty God" is because the church that the pastor attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle!!

If you believe that God answers prayers then pass this on. God bless!

Friday = Holiday

Man, I'm so looking forward to Friday! I'll be again going down to Singapore. But this time it's for a joyous occasion... my friend, Wileen would be getting married this coming Saturday and we're invited. It would be sort of like a reunion as well for those of us from Monash Gippy.

She is like the second person I know from Monash Gippy who is getting married. Granted, they are a couple of years older than me, but we're all still in our twenties! Gosh.... haha, nah, my wedding bells ain't ringing yet... but it does magnify the fact that I'm getting older.... But I do thank God that I'm not as sensitive to my age as my peers. Some of my friends do ask me if I'm worried as we are getting older, and this year, being the quarter of the century year for me... I coolly n smilingly say no. Why? Because for me, age is just a number. It's weird, I'm always a logical person, and I guess my reasoning is that age is just a number. It's really how you live your life that counts, rather that the number of years you've lived this life. Again, granted the years are passing on by us very quickly... it's already mid-year right now... but I guess that's all the reason more that we should make the best out of it. Carpe diem! Seize the day.... I don't always do that, but I'm learning to... hence the need to step back and re-evaluate how my life have been. I wana do a retreat soon, but need to see how to go about it.

Hoping that my boss would allow me a long trip so that I can take a step back from all the hassle of work and ease into God's presence thoroughly.. but it's a long short neways... more likely with the huge workload that I have to work doubly harder than right now. Seriously need to reconsider! Haha... but I guess one can see it as a time of testing for me, to see where my commitment is with God.

There is a nagging feeling that I might move on to something that's really unexpected in the near future, but that's uncertain right now.. still need to pray about and bring it up to surface slowly. Scared, but yea... need to really pray about it!

haha.. okok.. my postings are getting boring again with the updates on WORK! Gotta stop man.

More to come... hopefully not work k!

Couples

Was updated recently by my friend that she just got attached... am very thankful to God for this guy that God brought into her life. And really, this is one relationship that is led by God himself. God, in His timing revealed to the both of them that they are right for each other and I can see that God really, really assured her by granting her the desires of her heart. Not only did the guy fight for her (not literally, but he shows he's honourable and is gutsy enough to work hard to go after her although she tried to dissuade him - that's another story altogether), but he is patient and understanding too. I like the fact that God opens up the door of communication between both of them, allowing them to talk through many things and all.

Such assurance that God granted her, assuring her of her beauty, and that there are people who are attracted to her and is willing to fight for her. I'm very very glad for what God has done in her life. One thing that amazes me is that in every step of the way, she reveals herself to be a good testimony.... she prayed over everything and anything in any relation to her life. Even over this guy, she prayed and commit the whole event to the Lord. And even after getting attached, she seeks me up to pray for the two of them. It's not like I'm good at prayer or anything, but as her accountability partner that's part of what I do too =) And the guy is understandable, because he knows I'm her confidant and is honour me for my role in her life.

Assurance I guess is needed in her life and I can see he is one that can and will continue to assure and honour her. Am very glad....

I do pray that God will continue to lead them and guide them in their walk with Him.. Praise God for the wonders He's done =)
