suppose to work on my FAMRES ESSAY. but i din. i went out w Px and Jieyee today to shop. cause there's SALE. went to polyclinic in the monrning. that's all today.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- bored. empty. drained. tired. spiritual dried. i need a defining moment. i need a breakthrough again. it's tiring going this on my own strength. just what is sincere? what is true? what is real? somehow i don't see anything anymore, anything worth the while, anything that will last till eternal, the longer i fix my eyes on this broken world.
And so............
He came through for me. and for you. Hope. Light of Life. Love. That's sincere. because Love MUST be sincere.(Rom12:9)
how reassuring. that i am never alone. You're here.
he came through for me. sometimes, you feel alone in a crowd. but the truth is this, He's with you.

Send it to the kids.....
My mom only had one eye. I hated her... She was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students & teachers to support the family.
There was this one day during elementary school where my mom came to Say hello to me.
I was so embarrassed.
How could she do this to me? I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school one of my classmates said, "EEEE, your mom only Has one eye!"
I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mom to just disappear. I confronted her that day and said, " If you're only goanna make me a Laughing stock, why don't you just die?"
My mom did not respond... I didn't even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger. I was oblivious to her feelings.
I wanted out of that house, and have nothing to do with her. So I studied real hard, got a chance to go abroad to study. Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts, Then one day, my Mother came to visit me. She hadn't seen me in years and she didn't even meet her Grandchildren.
When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I yelled at Her for coming over uninvited. I screamed at her, "How dare you come to my house and scare my Children!" GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!"
And to this, my mother quietly answered, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I may have Gotten the wrong address," And she disappeared out of sight. One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house.
So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went to the old shack just out of curiosity.
My neighbors said that she died. I did not shed a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.
"My dearest son, I think of you all the time. I'm sorry that I came to your house and Scared your children. I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I'm sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were Growing up.
You see........when you were very little, you got into an accident, and Lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you Having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my Place, with that eye.
With all my love to you, Your mother.
Send this to at least 10 people in the next 5 minutes to show you love your mother. If you don't then it shows you have no heart
Always tell someone that you love them because you never know what day Will be their last, or your own.
Always seek to resolve your problems or disagreements with loved ones Because if either of you should pass on before, the one who is left alive will have the rest of their life to ponder those unresolved feelings but will never find closure. And closure usually brings Peace...
"I asked God, 'How do I get the best out of life?' God said, 'Face your past without regrets. Handle your present with confidence. And prepare for the future without fear!'"
RAHHHH~ this sem is so unbearable! i seriously can't wait for this sem to be over and done with.
and i've got no idea how i am ever gonna survive the exams. this is MAD- NESS!
celebrations?
i don't care ;i am gonna enjoy Christmas for now. i will not let STRESS and DEADLINES and OVERWORK get in the way of enjoying my learning. i will find pleasure n joy in serving God. (col3:23) taking one week at a time.

Casting Crowns - The Altar And The Door lyrics
Careless, I am reckless I'm a wrong-way-travelin'-slowly-unraveling shell of a man Burnt out, I'm so numb now That the fire's just an ember way down in the corner of my cold, cold heart
Lord, this time I'll make it right, here at the altar I lay my life Your kingdom come but my will was done, my heart is broken as I...
Cry, like so many times before But my eyes are dry before I leave the floor, oh LordI try but this time, Jesus, how can I be sure I will not lose my follow through Between the altar and the door
Here at the altar, oh my world so black and white How could I ever falter What You've shown me to be right I'm trying so hard to stop trying so hard Just let You be who You are Lord, who You are in me Jesus, I'm trying so hard to stop trying so hard Just let You be who You are Lord, who You are in me
very meaningful lyrics.
Oh Lord, I

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray "Take only one. God is watching."
Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples."
One Early morning a mother went to her sleeping son and woke him up
MOM:"Wake up, son. It's time to go to school."
SON:"But why, Mama? I don't want to go to school."
MOM:"Give me two reasons why you don't want to go to school."
SON:"One, all the chilldren hate me. Two, all the teachers hate me."
MOM:"Oh! that's not a reason. Come on, you have to go to school."
SON: "Give me two good reasons WHY I *should* go to school?"
MOM: "One, you are FIFTY-TWOyears old and should understand your responsibilities. Two, you are the PRINCIPAL of the school. ********************************************************************************

His son asked him, "Dad, why do u keep telling people u're dying of AIDS?"
Answer:"So when I'm dead no one will dare touch urmom!"
A well-known motivational speaker gathering the entire crowd's attention, said, "The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who wasn't my wife!"
The crowd was shocked!
He followed up by saying, "That woman was my mother!"
The crowd burst into laughter and he gave his speech, which was well received.
About a week later, one of the top managers who had the training decided to use that joke at his house. He tried to rehearse the joke in his head. It was a bit foggy to him.
He said loudly, "The greatest years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!"
Naturally, his wife was shell shocked, murmuring.
After standing there for almost 10 seconds trying to recall the second half of the joke, the manager finally blurted out "... and I can't remember who she was!"
As expected, he got thrashing of his lifetime?

"Our life is a short time in expectation, a time in which sadness and joy kiss each other at every moment. There is a quality of sadness that pervades all the moments of our life. It seems that there is no such thing as a clear-cut pure joy, but that even in the most happy moments of our existence we sense a tinge of sadness.
"In every satisfaction, there is an awareness of limitation. In every success, there is the fear of jealousy. Behind every smile, there is a tear. In every embrace, there is loneliness. In every friendship, distance. And in all forms of light, there is the knowledge of surrounding darkness.
"But this intimate experience in which every bit of life is touched by a bit of death can point us beyond the limits of our existence.
"It can do so by making us look forward in expectation to the day when our hearts will be filled with perfect joy, a joy that no one shall take away from us."
- Henri Nouwen
So, let's all look to the day we see the gates of heaven and enter it. Easier said than done definitely, but let this expectation of a perfect joy in Christ spur us to endure this temporary life we spend on earth and look ahead to eternity in heaven.
With that said, keep the faith brothers and sisters-in-Christ. Keep the faith.

you know something? It is the TIME OF THE YEAR! i totally love the season of Christmas. My favourite months are November and December. Though it can get especialy cold during these days, i like the weather a lot too! this jovial season in year 2007 is somewhat different from the past christmas seasons i had. It used to be relaxing during this time of the year for the past 4 years. i still rmb last year how i towned frequently just to look for jobs but found none? and ended up window shop?
However, i like this new experience of the Christmas season where there are TONS of assignments and groupwork to work on. and also to juggle with intense christmas rehearsals and a mini crusade christmas party next week. i can't wait to meet up, TON and chill with long-time-no-see-but-much-missed friends!In the midst of this busyness, i know that this is a firm training ground for me to learn to prioritise things, time management, concentration (with all your heart), know myself and others better, and lastly knowing Him and trusting that He is with me thru it all. and definitely, this christmas is not about me, but about Jesus Christ. this life is not about me, is about HIM.
and did i say i like to TON? hehehehe. ivy chiu coins! =P
