The one before I sit for the last few exam papers of my Uni life

It's finally here... the night before my first paper... i have been dreading the exams and at the same time looking forward to getting it done. It's weird coz these 4 days and 3 papers will mark the last few moments of my life as a Uni student and as much as i want the exams to come and go and let me have my fun holidays, i can't believe that at 4.30pm on friday, i would have finished my last official act as a uni student [minus me collecting my results online and graduating in dec]...

But i'm glad i guess that it's gonna be done... at least the exams... i have been studying and studying and i jus want it to get over and done with. esp QM on friday coz that's the last paper... and the paper i'm most worried about... haiz. only God can bring me thru that one. hahaha

Also, helped hannah pack just a bit today... she basically packed while i studied on her bed and then i'd help when i wanted a break from studies.. and she's gonna move tomorrow [thanks to our dear fren calvin who's mel's bf]... he offered to drive her things to and fro from hannah's old place to mel's house [hannah's new place] thank God for friends like him who really go out of their way to help... but yeh... hannah's leaving on thurs back to spore. :( one day before my last paper... TOTAL bummer.. but i'm glad she can go back and spend solid time in singapore with family and friends. :)

Alrite, time to go to sleep. got a paper tomorrow!

The one about Pancakes

I think i'm gonna try to name all my blog posts from now on jus like how they name friend's episodes. haha so funky. helps me keep track too...

Yesterday i had pancakes for breakfast and i think i've mastered the art of making golden brown pancakes. Used to always worry when i flip them over whether they'll be nice and brown or yellow or even worse, blackish... but so far, i've done 8 or so and they've all been beautiful. :P i'd say the key to that is timing [duh], BUTTER not oil.. and low heat... problem is mine isn't fire... so it's a bit hard to figure out what's low heat for an electrica l stove... but i've got it!

thus, i'm making pancakes again this morning coz the pancake mix still haven't finished yet. haha prepping to go to church. it'll be the last sunday hannah and i will worship together in church before she flies back to singapore... that lucky girl. hahaha :)

oops, better go make sure it's ready to flip!

Hannah's Dance Performance 2010

A few of us [Davin, Phyllis, Selena, Jillian and I] went to watch Hannah's end-of-year dance performance last nite and it was so good. :) I'm really just glad that God is giving Hannah talents in not just ballet but in other forms of dance as well. Dance styles such as Contemp and all, she's pulling the moves off really well and i'm really proud of her. She danced so well last nite. There was one part where she had to run 3/4 of the stage to match up with a girl who was running only 1/2 the stage and hannah jus BOLTED to her mark and executed the moves in-sync with the other girl. SO AMAZING... she did so well for that and for so many other things as well. :)

Also, i recognized the part where they danced in 2 diagonal lines. They practiced it during Open Day in Aug... and i remember sitting there in the dance studio watching them rehearse that.. so it was pretty neat. haha... but i was really impressed... the dance was 19mins long... and they were so good. :)

 

Today's Friday... and in a week's time... i'll be taking my LAST exam paper of my uni life [hopefully]... it's weird to think that 2 years have flown by and what awaits me is work till i die or retire... whichever one comes first. :S and on to study now! gotta claim the day and get as much studying done... :) see ya!

Thursday Work

Sigh, i am trying to find joy and enthusiasm about working on thursdays... i guess it's not so much about work but more like how long the work day is and how tiring it'll be.. and possibly also how there'll obviously be chances for the boss to scold me for doing something not to his favour [notice i didn't say doing something wrong but doing something that's not like what HE does... all of us who work with him know that about him, it may not be the right way but if it's not HIS way, it's wrong... and we just gotta work with that]... but yeh, i'm going to face this day as how i always face this day... with prayer for my boss, co-workers, customers and basically anyone I will be meeting on this day... and then CHOOSING to stay positive, not to take things personally and to learn. sigh.

Yesterday was Hannah's first performance for the her end-of-year production and I heard that it was really good... thank God that Auntie Rina's flowers got to her too... was stressed that the delivery man wouldn't be able to find her and stuff. :) haha.. but it's all good. And I'm looking forward to going tonight to see my gf dance her heart out. :)

Yeh, but studying is going too slowly and a part of me is getting stressed that my exams are fast approaching [next tues - fri] but i'm also looking forward to getting them done and done with. :) yep...

Waking up slow

Sigh, told myself to wake up early at 9am today and ended up waking up, smsing the gf, switching off my alarm and going back to sleep. Woke up at 11... as predicted yesterday and wasted 2 hours of possible study time. sigh. i really dun like myself sumtimes. :(

Today's wednesday, i better make the best of it and study hard coz tml i know i'll be too tired after work to put in real good study... so today's kinda a full day of study i don't wanna be wasting away. :) can't wait till next friday though. this semester's exams are so fast i'm so glad. like no exams till 16th then WHAM BAM and i'm done on the 19th... eeps! :)

Week 12

My gosh. it's week 12. and i've passed the halfway mark of week 12. Basically, 2 more days stand between me and the end of my uni semester. it's weird to think.

that day i was looking for some documents regarding my enrollment and i pulled out the file with all my documentation. right in the same plastic pocket was my offer letter from the uni of melb offering me a place unconditionally at unimelb for info systems and in the same pocket was the letter i received not too long ago inviting me to state my attendance at my graduation ceremony... i jus sat there for a while thinking... woah. 2 years jus flew by like that and this is the end of my uni life.... awesome on one hand knowing that i'll be done with uni life and proceeding on towards work... but not too awesome thinking how work life has it's stresses and lack of freedom like unilife does. :(

but with every new phase in life, there are new challenges and new joys to be discovered... so yeh, looking forward trying to prepare for it as much as i can. :)

I graduate on the 15th of December 2010 at 1pm. :) Now, let me enjoy my last 2 days and the last day will be EPIC.... Final presentation for my Industry Project with all suits and impt vips... :) you know what they say... this friday, it's time to....

SUIT UP! (Stinson B, 2010)

Week 11

goodness. it's week 11.

That means i've got 2 more weeks left till i'm totally done with Uni [pending me passing my exams]...

so weird to think i'm almost gonna be flung into the working world... or unemployment... :( haha.

but yeh, things are wrapping up and assignments are being finished... can't believe it's ending. but i guess everything must come to an end... and i just pray that the Lord will go before me for the next phase of my life. :)

Law Lib

Been studying at the Law Library the past 2 days and i'm glad that the change of atmosphere has made me a bit more productive than if i stayed at home la. but i'm real tired now and i think if i were at home or if i were here, i'd still be too tired to work. :(

Free pie face mini pie and coffee

Taken from http://www.smh.com.au/ffxImage/urlpicture_id_1061663787330_2003/08/26/pieface.jpg

With a free coffee and free mini pie, i begin week 7 of the last semester of schooling [of possibly my life]... it's weird to think that in a few months time, i'd have graduated [hopefully] and entering the workforce. :( i'm not looking forward to ending my schooling life i'll be dead honest with u and i'm more looking forward to a new change in life but not looking forward to the need to self sustain myself. :(

Talking about self sustaining, this marks my 3rd week working at Vict Market Comm. I'm glad that i've got a good patient boss and i've been working enuf hours to pay for expenditure and even rental if i wanted to... i got $275 last week and will prob be averaging $260 a week with taxes and all. that still leaves me bout $80 per week extra after paying rent for expenditure and that's more than enuf. :) so right now, i technically can afford to stay in melbourne.

which brings me to my next point. I am considering the idea of getting a PR here. i know i've been throwing the idea back and forth but i suppose there IS an option of working part time while i wait for my PR and seek full time employment. considering how i'm only working 3 weekdays a week now and i have enuf to survive, i could work a 2nd job and have MORE than enuf to survive... so that's a real possibility now... and that's considering rental in the city itself where rent is about $200/wk. :) so it's not a closed door to stay here.

I just want to take this time once again to thank God for the blessings He's given me the past few weeks... with this job and all... i really am glad for it coz it's weekdays and it's mornings. so that still gives me time at night to do work and spend time at home... and the weekends to go to church and spend time with friends and hannah. I think it's just awesome how God has blessed me with this 'relatively' easy job and yet allow me the foresight to consider this option for my future plans... and of course for a good boss that is willing to employ me now and after dec.

School work has been good too. with the added time i have on the weekends [coz i try to go church on sat evenings so i have the whole of sunday to do work] i've been keeping up on the workload and making sure i complete weekly assignments and deliverables earlier than necessary so i have more time to do anything i might have forgotten or came up last minute. :)

Had a moment yesterday that I really did miss the YF and the youth... i went thru some photos on FB and it made my heart long to fellowship with everyone again. It pained me and disappointed me a bit too about how my future plans might no longer include ministry in Singapore [at least for the near future] and that kinda made me re-think whether i wanna be here or back in Singapore where i can continue the ministry for the shalom youth who always have a HUGE place in my heart and mind... but i guess i'm glad that the YF is currently in good hands and God is always providing for them. :) sets my heart at ease.

Also, lastly, thank God for 29 solid years of ministry that Shalom has enjoyed. they celebrated their 29th anniversary yesterday and i was just glad to see how God is continually giving them/us blessings and providence. :) i miss my church. :( haha.


with that, i should stop coz i dun normally like to think too much about singapore lest i start missing everyone. :)

Take care peeps.

Dot Point Digression

Wow... it's been ages since i last blogged. I go to my blog every day to check the tagboard and stuff and always get reminded that i haven't blogged in ages... :) i guess everytime i think of blogging, i dun really know wad to say... but i guess i should at least jus shoot out a dot point thing then i'll elaborate when i'm free-er...

Things that have happened since...

1. My 24th birthday.
Close frens surprised me after i came back from OCF, they toilet papered my whole room. pics are on facebook... but that was shocking. :) and yet really warm... it made me so thankful to God that i've got a close bunch of frens here...

2. Hannah and My one year anniversary.
God has given us a brilliant 1 year of many Ups and a few Downs... and I'm just amazed to see how God has helped us thru many things and I believe with all my heart that if we weren't both Christians, we would have had a very different outcome. I think God is moulding BOTH of us to become more Christ-like and more loving to each other as we also juggle that with our own individuality and other commitments.

3. Completed a 21 day fast with my church. I picked Secular music and FACEBOOK to fast from. I'm glad to say that I didn't break my facebook fast except Once... to confirm my attendance to some Employment Workshop that was publicised through facebook. Thankfully Davin alerted me to the rsvp and i signed on to click "Am Attending" and logged off straight away. :)

4. Went to a few career things this few weeks and have a better idea of the immense stress it is to get a job either here or in Singapore. It's really scary coz this IS my last semester of uni life as I know it.

5. Secured/Was given a part time job by the Lord working at a SHOP at Victoria Market that deals with telecommunications... Handphones, handphone accessories and computer stuff. My title is "Telecommunications Officer" and i basically just clean up, clear up, price tag stuff... I wanna thank God coz the ad said $13-$17 per hour based on age grp and after going through a 1hr trial period with the boss [which he paid me for too] I'm getting $20 an hour working 3 mornings of the week. That's just WONDERFUL coz it gets me jus shy of $300 a week. that's wonderful. :) Thank God and i've got this job [if nothing goes wrong] till Dec. :) Praise the Lord.

6. Semester is going good. thankfully coz i was originally worried that with Industry Project and with a real client and all, i might not enjoy it... but it's turning out quite interesting. :) Struggling through my core module [which i was supposed to take in year 1] Quantitative Methods... sigh. :)


Recently, an old friend of mine popped me a hi and it's been great catching up with her. From my SingTel days... interesting to see how God puts different people in your life unexpectedly to remind you to count your blessings and see what an impact u've made in others and what impact u can make in others in the future. :)

Thanks be to God, He's been really my strength and provider this past few weeks.

Spose - I'm Awesome

Think this song is really cute. haha a bit rude.. but hey, i think it's funny! the lyrics are so down to earth hahaha. :) enjoy!


Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome...

I don't necessarily need to be here for this...
I'm gonna keep the headphones though...
Mother ****** I'm awesome!
No you're not, dude don't lie
I'm awesome!
I'm drivin around in my mom's ride
I'm awesome!
A quarter of my life gone by
And I met all my friends online
Mother ****** I'm awesome!
I will run away from a brawl
I'm awesome!
There's no voicemail, nobody called
I'm awesome!
I can't afford to buy eight balls
And I talk to myself on my Facebook wall
I'm awesome

You know my pants sag low (low)
Even though (though) that went out of style
Like ten years ago (go)
Spose, I got the swagger of a cripple
I got little biceps,
Getting fatter in the middle

And lyrically I'm not the best :)
Physically the opposite of Randy Moss and yet
So preposterous
Feel the awesomeness, the most obnoxious
Guest up at the sausage fest
Oh yes!
The girls are repulsed
So I hide in my hood like i'm joining a cult
Uh Uhh
I'm as nervous as my cattle dirty curtis
All my writtens are bitten and
All my verses are purchased
Me? I'll never date an actress
Got too many back zits
Plus my whole home aroma is cat piss
Every show i do is poorly promoted and if you like this,
It's cuz my little sister wrote it

I'm awesome!
No you're not, dude don't lie
I'm awesome!
I'm drivin around in my mom's ride
I'm awesome!
A quarter of my life gone by
And I met all my friends online
Mother ****** I'm awesome!
I will run away from a brawl
I'm awesome!
There's no voicemail, nobody called
I'm awesome!
I can't afford to buy eight balls
And I talk to myself on my Facebook wall
I'm awesome

Check it out

I'm from Maine and I don't hunt, nope
And I can't ski
Smoke weed but I can't roll blunts
*Find me* whipped by my wifey
My neck not icy
Eatin at McDonalds because Subway's pricey

Uh, and my unibrow is plucked
Just asked my mom if I could borrow ten bucks
She's like "For what?
Blunt wraps and some Heineken?
You skinny prick, go get a gym membership and vitamins!"
I'm like, Mom please, don't blame it on me
I got my bad habits from you, Dad, and Aunt Steve
My attitude's sour but my futon's sweet,
And the hair on my ***, it is Jumanji

Suit untailored, ringtone Taylor Swift
Can't tweet up on my Twitter
Cuz I haven't done shit
Bank account red, body ungroomed
The only thing good about me is I'm off stage soon

I'm awesome!
No you're not, dude don't lie
I'm awesome!
I'm drivin around in my mom's ride
I'm awesome!
A quarter of my life gone by
And I met all my friends online
Mother ****** I'm awesome!
I will run away from a brawl
I'm awesome!
There's no voicemail, nobody called
I'm awesome!
I can't afford to buy eight balls
And I talk to myself on my Facebook wall
I'm awesome

Futhermore I'm cornier than Ethynol
Cheesier than Provolone
I spent ages eight to ten living in a motor home
With a ego the size of Tim Duncan
Even though I got shit for brains like a blumpkin
I'm twenty four, serving lobster rolls
Because I spent a decade filling optimos
And I'm not even the bomb in Maine
On my game I'm only about as sexy as John McCain
Now put your hands up,
If you have nightmares
If you wouldn't man up if there was a fight here
If you got dandruff, if you drink light beer
I'm outta breath...

But I'm awesome!
No you're not, dude don't lie
I'm awesome!
I'm drivin around in my mom's ride
I'm awesome!
A quarter of my life gone by
And I met all my friends online
Mother ****** I'm awesome!
I will run away from a brawl
I'm awesome!
There's no voicemail, nobody called
I'm awesome!
I can't afford to buy eight balls
And I talk to myself on my Facebook wall
I'm awesome

He Opened their Minds

Play this video and let it load before you read this entry... i think it helps u put yourself into a position to read this Spirit inspired entry... i love the bridge from 5:40 onwards... amazing feeling if u just close your eyes and imagine God.



On the third day after Jesus was crucified, Mary Magdalene and her friends saw the empty tomb and immediately ran to tell the disciples; "But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense" (Luke 24:11). Even after Peter saw the empty tomb for himself, he was perplexed; "He went away, wondering to himself what had happened" (Luke 24:12).

The disciples had walked with Jesus and listened to Him teach about this day but they still did not understand. It wasn't until Jesus personally appeared to the disciples that the events began to make sense; "Then He opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures" (Luke 24:45).

I was reading my devotional today and this part really hit me... it talks about Jesus' resurrection and how even the disciples who walked with Him didn't believe or understand what the empty grave meant... until Jesus appeared to them and opened their minds so they could understand... isn't it amazing?

Often times we walk on by in our life and spiritual walk and want to be closer to Jesus... we want to spend more time with Him, we want to live with Him... So we go to church more, we serve more and we read the bible more... but those are just actions... we can do all that outwardly and feel no connection to Him internally. We could walk beside Him literally and still not understand...

Only when He allows us to, when He chooses to open our minds, when we put our heart into our service, our walk and our fellowship with Jesus... then will He choose to open our minds and we will see, we will taste and we will understand. Amazing glory that would be... wonderful truths that would spring to mind... magnificent experiences we will feel and touch God... that is when we will understand Scripture, that is when we will see Him for not a God or person... but OUR God and our Lord...

It's like an epiphany... knowing how the Scripture relates to that spiritual body standing in front of them... imagine what the disciples felt at that point in time... i think it's not beyond what we can experience... i don't think God limits that to that time and place... i think we can feel that too. i think we can strive to grasp hold of God and feel Him... and then, we will understand. if only we reach out.

p.s. only did i realize how linked the song is to the text i typed out... and i didn't choose the song.. it was jus playing in the background. :) amazing. heh... and i love how i type entries without editing.. i jus let the words flow and at the end i just click "publish post" :) Amen to the Holy Spirit...

Happy news of exco

I know rite? 3 posts in such succession... what is rui doing to be so free to blog? haha... jus that i found stuff to blog bout. :)

anyways, heard from ht today that shannon, junyew and herself are standing for exco and thus are getting baptised... woahhhh! :) that made my heart skip a beat... so happy. haha.

The Lord sends when the need is present... thank the Lord for sending yet more labourers for the harvest is plenteous. :) Amen.

10 Degrees

Wow. today before deciding what to wear, i checked my weather widget in my ipod touch...

10 Degrees?!?! woah! hello Winter! :) Awesome.. i love the cold.

Walking out, the blast of cold air just wakes u up and slaps u in the face... so refreshing... :)

Cooking Lunch in the morning

Today when i woke, i knew i had my work cut out for me before school started. Here's the low down. I have class at 10am and i needed to wake up early enuf to make lunch. Last night, i already deboned my chicken drumsticks and marinated it. Chucking it into the fridge knowing the flavours would jus lock in after a night in the fridge.

So i woke, and dragged myself into a sitting up position [yeh, that was hard enuf]... and then willed myself to get out of bed and go cook. So time is 8.15... managed to get out of bed by 8.30... I pop my pot onto the stove and start slicing onions.

I know rice will take me 14mins to cook and steaming chicken takes 15 so i wash my rice, set it inside the microwave waiting for my water to bowl.

Water starts to boil, i grab my chicken out of the fridge and dump it nicely into a steaming pan. In goes the pan. And i lean over to press start on the microwave. 'All working like clockwork' i think to myself... I grab my pan out of the cupboard and place it onto the already hot stove top that was waiting... Crack Crack... two eggs in a bowl... Beating them is a whizz.

Wonderful, the pan's heated up. Oiled and ready for onions, i can't disappoint it so on goes the onions. They hit the pan with a sizzle of delight as they slowly brown and take in the flavour of the oil. I cut up a slice of ham to give the soon-to-be omelette jus that small tinge of saltiness.

The ham gets a nice crisp looking browness around the edges. That's my cue... I pour over the egg and the sizzle ceases to a silent hiss of the egg being cooked.

Everything's ticking away. Great, that leaves me enuf time to start washing up. I wash the dishes while the egg slowly cooks and the chicken steams, not forgetting the rice becoming fluffy and delicious in the microwave.

I flip the egg and it's got a beautiful brown hint on the flat side down... awesome. this is going perfectly. I wait a while and flip it one more time to check whether the other side has matched this. It looks delicious with the onions and ham slices just peeking above the sea of yellowish brown egg. I cut it in half, half for lunch and half for dinner.

*ding* goes the microwave. Pop the rice cooker out of the microwave and pop the lid off. Steam rises out of the cooker like it's breathing fresh air for the first time. Fluff the rice and set it aside to await the chicken. 1minute till it's done... i stop the pot of water boiling and take it out of the pan using the crocodile kiap-kiap thing... Pop a small piece into my mouth and knew that was not a great idea coz it just made me want to eat the whole pan up now. :( but alas, i'll have to wait till lunch... so i take it out and pop it into my tupperware box. All segmented so that it won't mix up until i want it mixed with the rice and egg.

As i pour the hot water out of the pot and refill it with cold water, i start washing everything else while the pot cools off.

There, all done. now i'm going to have a delicious meal in school while i work on my projects and type a blog entry [apparently]... :) it's 11.25am now.. but i know that in half an hour, i'll be treating myself to a delicious meal of Ham-Onion Omelette, Steamed Rice and Sesame oil and soya sauce marinated steamed chicken. :)

For everyone who can't enjoy this with me... here's for your visual appetite.
