Rush-ians

Today i was sitting around waiting for my friend to arrive, an hour and a half late, but i noticed that Singaporeans walk around with a frown on their face (could be due to the heat) or stress but also they rush here and there... I get the feeling like they're always angry bout sumthing or late to get somewhere...

Rush rush rush... That's why i like the pace in Melb too... Of course there are loads i things i prefer bout spore... But this is jus one thing i think melb wins over spore. :)

But sorry, i can't blog much, gotta rush off to meet my fren. Toodles!

Lucky

Because some people have complained that stuff I say are very mushy and stuff... so i shall just say that I am a very happy guy right now... Happy because I'm very fortunate to be blessed by God with such awesomely blessed gifts from Him.

He has known my heart's desire and my heart's cry and He's blessed me with a treasure that I have been given to guard and keep. I pray that God will guide me through this process and allow me to love the gift He has given me with all that I am... and that all these years of preparation would come in useful as I also aim to allow this gift to bring me closer to God as I also try my best to do likewise.

All that said and done, I sometimes wonder to myself how fortunate and blessed i am to be given this gift. Coz to me, this gift is so beautiful and so precious to me that I will never want to ever spoil it or the chances of me keeping it.

Thank You Lord and I Love You Lord.

I love my Gift... :)

She said yes...


So I realized that after looking through my previous entries, i haven't updated other people who are reading this who might not have met me yet... well to cut it all short and sharp, i just got attached to a lovely girl named Hannah.

Long story short, I managed to do what I planned to do during this Singapore trip and seek the blessings and permission of both her mum and my parents... thankfully everything went well at Seoul Garden and after having a very serious heart to heart talk with her mum and pastor Lau [her godpa] they gave me the green light, blessings, warnings and prayer for our friendship to progress into a relationship...

I thank God for the journey thus far, for helping me to make sure i lean upon Him and not my feelings... I'm glad that we have both consulted God and godly counsel on the matter and that we're both seeking to please God in our lives, including our relationship with each other... And it's a constant thing for this is just the beginning but my prayer is that i will never lose sight of God in this aspect of my life and that we both complement each other to spur each other on towards love and good works. :)

Yep, so I thank the Lord for getting her safely back to Melbourne [i'll be back in 2 weeks] and for the surprise welcome home decorations that was a blast and worked out all according to plan. yayz. i'm so glad she enjoyed it and as we both wait out this 2 weeks that we're apart and stuff, I'm gonna seek God more and more for guidance, direction, purpose and strength as i also have to consider the fact that as the man, i am also the spiritual leader of this r/s... if not leading, at least ensure that God is kept in the center.

Yep. All that said and done, i have got a wonderful girlfriend whom i thank God for so so many times i bet He rolls His eyes at me if He wanted to. She's a great girl who's determination, focus, dedication and dependency on God is sumthing i really admire. Apart from being such a beautiful woman of God, her inner beauty can not be contained by that fragile and graceful exterior. I'm glad that she's consistent in her walk with God and though we may not always be the peak of our spiritual walks, i'm glad that we can both keep each other in check and as iron sharpens iron, may we both strive towards greater Holiness and Spiritual maturity.

I really like her family too. they're really fun people especially her mum. She's a riot and so caring and accommodating. I'm just glad that we're all pretty similar and stuff so wavelength and all are all pretty the same. Her bro's a cool corny guy too... couldn't ask for a better kind of brother-of-my-gf kinda thing... he cracks us up with his jokes loads of times and i'm glad he's doing well too... and her sister is slowly opening up too. She's got a really nice personality too... jus needs to come out a bit more.. I'm glad that i'm getting to know them better and interacting a bit more with them [like making laura take photos at hannah's farewell] ahha... it helps to know them more and get to know people who are important to hannah la...

Speaking of which, div is SUPER funny la... hannah's close fren divinia... she's like super random and never afraid to make people laugh at her crazy antics. :) whether it be talking bout escaping death because you're too tall so the cowboy riding a horse holding a bullet would not be able to kill u with the bullet coz u're shorter... or it could be creating actions for the song man in the mirror and making sure everyone she comes across has a preview of the actions... div is one heck of a fun cookie to be around and she's so entertaining. haha thanks div and oh.. thanks for also keeping my secret about the welcome home thing. :) hope u had a fun time in Crusade Camp btw. :)

Yep, so that wraps up the update for now. i've got 2 weeks that i'm here in Singapore then it's back to my life in melbourne. :) cold wintery life... so interesting how you can be one person here [waking up late and bus and mrting everywhere eating out and meeting friends] and then u can be a totally diff person in another country [going to the market to buy groceries, doing the laundry for 1 person and cooking up a feast for friends]... weird. :)

I thank God for friends. they keep me happy, sane and motivated to want to do better for God.

Back in Spore

Wow... so sorry, the past few days have been a whirlwind of activities and stuff to the point that i had NO energy to do anything impt like blogging... :S so here i sit, with a day free to finally possibly blog. :)

The flight back was good... the melb-kl flight was great... 8 hours... and movies to watch. i watched coraline [which is sumthing i was looking forward to] and then Race to Witch mountain [lame 'the rock' show] and then yeh slept like 10-15 mins? then the lights came on and they started serving breakfast... !@#$%^ hahaha... but it was still good la. :) made frens with the girl who sat with me... her name was georgie [or that's how it's pronounced] and yeh she was quite an interesting seat partner. :) thank God for willing friendly people to get to know... she said i have an aussie accent.... holy smoke. not good. HAHA. :) i guess i turn it on when i speak to caucasians... helps them understand us asians much better.

anyhoo... the connecting was good thank God.. didn't have a problem finding my terminal and flight... i was quite scared coz when i was waiting for the connecting flight... i checked in and waiting to board the plane. then suddenly the announcement over the PA called for my name. i freaked out. thot got swine flu... hahha but it was jus coz they forgot to take my air ticket from me... so they couldn't fly without that... wah i tell u... i was like SHIIIIIT. :S hahah.. then OHHHH. hahaha

yeh. so i reached back and was SO excited to get off the flight... this dude in front of me was carrying a red handcarry back pack and he had this name tag on it... and his name was "Ah Meng Bow"... ahhahah i had this image of an animal trainer in Spore Zoo asking ah meng to bow after he finished his breakfast with ah meng section. lolz. :) so mean. i know.

got off the plane and went thru the thermal scanners praying hard... it was quite stressful. 4 people staring at me and the screen.... :S hahah then i immediately went to the phone booth and called Hannah and later my mum. :) was so good hearing their voices again knowing that i was on the same country soil as them. :) got my DFS stuff for dad and then went out and gave wongster a huge hug... 2 weeks worth. :) missed her so.

Reached home and didn't get to hug my parents or sister coz they're afraid they'd get swine flu.. but it was SO good seeing them... u have no idea. :)

went back to hannah's place and got changed for the wedding and left for church. it was great seeing everyone again... huiting was walking from a far and i shouted out "AUNTY!!!" And she literally started running when she saw it was me... :) that was really sweet and nice... hahah her face was such a treat too... she looked so happy hahaha... i thank God for friends like her... who make the 4 months feel like 4 days... and that things have changed yes... but friendships will remain. :) thanks HT.... stupid aunty... u dun even know how much hapiness u bring to others.

Wedding went well.. i was SO happy to be there singing praises to God with shalomites... seeing my sister walking down the aisle... being next to my parents... there were points in the service where i chocked on my words and fought to keep composed. :) God knows how much i wanted this and God knows how much i was thankful to Him that i was there... :) thank u once again Lord... if i haven't said it enuf, thank You.

Hannah and Mel came too.. so that was pretty neat. :) managed to introduce them around to my frens, mentors and family... :) jus her being around sharing this special day with me was sumthing i'm so glad God allowed... and then she helped pack up the place and stuff... felt kinda bad that she had to do stuff... :) but was glad to see that she was so ready to help out... and not sit in one corner and act like a princess. :) small things like this make me glad that i chose her and remind me what attracts me to her.

After the wedding, we went out for dinner with a few shalom people at simpang... that was quite fun too.. first time that a small grp was meeting... :) and it was at simpang! haha i missed it so. oh. i also missed driving. the feeling was SO good driving again. haha i love it. :)

yep then the next day was the wedding stuff... the threshold thing [where the groom and bestmen go through all these tasks to get to Sab and finally bring her for the tea ceremony] then the dinner... to cut it all short, i didn't eat much at the dinner coz we went around entertaining people and it was like woah... crazy many people. 68 tables at Ritz lehhh. ahhah oh and bridal suite is SOOOO nice. :S gosh... beautiful like anything. i'll upload some photos and show u.. goodness. :)

Photos Here!
Bridal Suite


yeh overall, it's been a great wedding and i'm real glad my sister's so happy. praise God.
