Happy CNY to Everyone.
I just finished the last attachment session for Year 2.
Shouts "HURRAY!"
My mentor in the centre spoke to me today.
"As a teacher, we touch the lives of the children we teach"She commented that I was one of the more committed student cher.
I am committed because I want to fulfill my calling as a student.
But yet, my passion is not entirely being a teacher teaching in a childcare environment.
& yes, I have to admit that I have not been putting in my best in giving the children the best.
She asked me; are you going to pursue a degree because of future career advancement or because you want to be the very best teacher that you can ever be?
& I answered her honestly.
CommitmentIt really requires alot.
I can't get over the barrier of the hygiene aspect when working with children.
I am not sure if I really want to commit my time/weekends to planning lessons, preparing materials for the children.
I am not sure if I can be giving the best to the children.
But I am quite sure I do want to work in the Art&Craft aspect.
My mentor said that she will be supportive of me if I choose to specialise in an aspect e.g. teaching the children Art&Craft.
I am looking for direction, God.
:] On a happier note,
Look at this!
Looking at them makes me smile!

Aren't they adorable?
& They are the only/one of the few of the bear family that actually has a smile on their face!
So cheerful!
Each and every bear are pretty!
To those who are mugging hard for exams/chiong-ing assignments,
JIA YOU! *BEAMS!*
I am so looking forward to sat!
CNY visitation & reunion dinner with
family, as in Acts4.3.
Will upload photos soon.
Till then.
:]

Something that I have been working on.
Though not able to suceed every single time, but improved alot!

& Lecturer

Philip cher

Juian; One of the nicest in class <3

2 assignments down this week!
Relieved!
5 more to go & 2 exam papers, and I can say goodbye to Year 2.
I can't help but still exclaim that God has been so faithful.
Since I started walking with Him in this sem, things have gotten so much better.
Same workload, same conflicts that might happen
But with God, things are just different.
For the joy of the Lord is my strength!I find life so much more beautiful when I choose to face it with a positive attitude.
What a big difference attitude makes.
I have to learn to smile more though.
To change my default "dao" face to one that's smiling
:] :] :]
CNY is finally here!
Wooo, looking forward to this break!
& to catch up on a few more assignments and to relax
YAY!
HAPPY CNY TO EVERYONE!
Today's reunion dinner turned out great.
Though food was not fantasic, the company were!
Fun :]
Update sooooon!
& I miss Doreen & SNN
Praised the Lord at 8:10 AM.
The day out with Doreen
The puppet I so so loved!

The potato chips-like leaves

The raddish that Dor's Dad planted
It's such a rare sight to me.

Yummy!


Dear Doreen! :]
Thank you so so much for all these help you have rendered me for my assignments!
For converting the videos!
For helping me with the survey, which nearly cause an internal conflict!
For lending me stuff!
I will miss you when you go over to Bangkok!
& no, definitely nothing serious will happen there lar.
At least I will try my best to be praying!
LOL.
<3
Monday without the blues!


Her pretty pink blouse!


School will be ending soon.
Which means that exams are drawing near too.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men."Col 3:23
& yes, God does not require us to be the best, but to do our best!
For those who are tired of studying, PRESS ON!
CNY will be the highlight of the week.
Finally, a chance to have dinner with the whole family.
My brother have been so busy with his work that I seldom see him.
& My family is expanding once again.
Oh well.
Excited for cell group visitation since my family most prob won't do any.
The goodies etc make me look forward to CNY so so much!
Update soon.
*Smiles*

The interesting things that make lessons fun!

We had paint, toilet paper and paper clips to explore during the Environmental Awareness tutorial last week.
It is interesting to know that toilet paper rolled in a ball, in paint, floats on water!
In preparation for CNY. LOL.

The sculpture I made during toilet paper!

My class' sweet words to our lecturer!

Last week was hectic with all the project work due.
Gb parade was great with all the sec ones coming in.
God was Awesome with a capital A!
"My life changed since the day You came into my life!"
How true is it.
Not a BGR relationship that changed my life.
But a relationship with God.
:]
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)Anyway, I am capping orders for havaianas slippers/sandals etc.
Visit
http://www.havaianas.com.br/ for the designs etc!
Drop me a tag if you're interested!
I have cheap deals! & yes, they're authentic! :]
Blessed week ahead. :]
Praised the Lord at 7:18 PM.
Now is the time!
Chiong-ing of assignments + Preparation of Exams
Our motivation

I am getting the hang of studying with her.
We definitely have to plug in our earphones, else we will be chatting non stop!

I like feeling accomplished after revising for a little.
:] Actually when you are focused, things get done effectively and in the process, it is enjoyable too.
Even for studies.
Good job, Faith & Faris.
I believe you both did your best!
& For all the rest who got back their results!
I heard that this time round, all results are rather good.
Praise God!
<3
And yes, the word for the season is discipline.
Having a positive and encouraging attitude requires discipline too
I will try my best.
Afterall, when peeps are around, anything can happen.
LOL.
Phil 4:8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things.I finally got started on watching the drama seria that I wanted to do so, even before the break.

One Litre of Tears
I used to really dislike watching drama online. The hassle of having to find the next part, and waiting for it to load really turns me off. However, Doreen introduced me to
http://www.mysoju.com/. I feel that it's rather good. :]
For those who wants to watch drama serials too. :]
I am looking forward to TPM laterwards.
It is refreshing & very very good.
:] Highly encouraged! LOL!
Cya peeps.
Have a blessed week ahead.
Praised the Lord at 6:34 PM.

It wasn't the same without him yesterday.
But I have to admit that a boy comes out as a man. (most of the time)
:]
19thgb officers/helpers had a heels' day yesterday!
(My 1st attempt wearing heels though, made me feel like a shu nu)

CCK Lib, a conducive place to study in!

& My studying partner!

It's a irony when I decided do side parting like what doreen intended to do; and she took over what my hairstyle used to be.
LOL.
I like what Pastor preached this sat!
A message very timely for me; just as I am about to go back to school tmr.
A positive & encouraging attitude in a world that needs it.
Indeed.
And just as I felt I had been handed another obstancle to overcome,
I now see that an opportunity will arise out of it.
Rejoice!& I want to smile more! :]
I have never seen positive attitude this important.
Now I do; It's contagious!
I am excited for the things that are coming up.
And yes, I am expecting for trouble to come along too.
& I know that my attitude will determine the choices I make, I want to make it right!
And honestly, I am still a little afraid of the numerous projects and the upcoming exams.
It still boils down to how am I going to look at it.
God, lead me through!Make yours & my life count!
Cya peeps.

E learning week pass-ing in a flash.
First week of 2009.
And one thing I couldn't help; I am still not punctual :(
No more "next times!"
Attachment in centre on Tue & Wed was tiring.
TPM made up for all these, it was Awesome, Refreshing,
IndescribableIt was so rare to have a time to just kneel in front of the Altar, dwelling in His presence and doing & praying all that I want.
It was B
reathtaking.
*BEAMS!*
Going out with Vivian jie also helped much.
Confiding in peeps much older & mature, really does help.
I like coversations that prompt me to think.
:]
I feel the word for this season for me is discipline.
In which, I link it up to self control and dilligence.
There have been things that I don't want to do.
Situations that I can't control happening in my life.
I need to be
disciplined.To obey
To do it
:]
WeiLun's going into army this friday; shall blog about it tmr.
The meet up with him & cell tmr.
And chiong-ing of assignments with Doreen.
Till then.

Hello 2009!
To keep my promise,
26thDec'2008
ACTS 4 Christmas Party

And FAITH PAN'S BIRTHDAY!

It was a great time of gathering. The activities was normal, but the company made the difference! Lots & Lots of pretty photos were taken!
"Dear Santa, I want a DSLR too!" LOL.
December is gone, and here comes January!
My new year eve was meaningful.
A friendship that is restored;
DoreenThough no longer the same closeness as before, but I believe, it marks a new start!



Thank you for your Swensons voucher!
We visited the place we used to play when we were in our primary school years!
Doreen used to loiter around with her friends, while I used to go fishing with my brother!
LOL. I remember the days where my bro & I would dig for earthworms (and pull them apart) as baits. We would use fishing strings with a hook attached, and just fish at the reservoir!

That reservoir





I like this photo.



The holidays were great fun!

2008 was a great year, 2009 will be a great year too.
I am so glad that life is not a bed of roses.
Tough times do make me want to cry under my blanket and to run to God's embrace.
But after everything else, I come out stronger.
There might be so many times where material wants overwhelm my thoughts.
I still came to realise that my greatest blessing are the people that are around me to support me.
I cannot guarantee that I will no longer cry, hide under my blanket, complain or fall,
what I know is that I have the greatest backing ever, because I am
My Heavenly Daddy's girl.
Aye,
A memorable conversation left me thinking.
"People comes from different walks of life".
Indeed, it is so.
I wonder maybe I hadn't really truly understood that, until now.
Which prehaps explains the unmet expectations, and the disappointment which follows.
That is precisely why knowing someone is like stepping into another world.
And so often, I choose to retreat into my comfort zone, as if "saving myself from more trouble".
I choose to be different this year.
:]
And once I was in 2008, now I leftWhat's left are memories that I would keep, which serves as amazing evidence of Your grace!
