HM.. been working and the job's getting a lil boring. but the pay is good so oh well. maybe will only work there for 4 hours after Jan and find a more fulfiling job instead. hahaa. last time i thought job @ a hotel can be quite boring because of my attachment. but now i feel it's acty quite fun. at least i get to interact with ppl. i'm not really an office kindda girl lah! hahaha.

WAA. i just read may's entry! i feel like watching gong zhu xiao mei nowww! i miss chiong-ing ou xiang ju. though u feel so tired but like u just cant stopp! but then end le will feel super sad. sometimes u really wish ur life could be like the plot of the show. the last one that i chiong-ed was Gong. so it's been quite long le. Yea lohh. i think my job is too long hours le and it's not fulfiling. i think i'm lacking time to do the many other things that I want to do le.

now i think the only fulfiling thing in my life is Chingay. went for training today and had lunch with the new friends I made. They're such nice people and I know I'm just going to enjoy this experience sooooo much. went for lunch then had talks :) all of them are really funny! had a great time laughing with them today! met my group! US25 today! i have a nice GIC sherry and great team members. so i know we'll be able to work tgt really well. next week I'll meet my other group!

I really hope I can go to church with no worries. even though it may not be what they hope for but at least acceptance? I feel kindda suffocated everytime I'm informed of church events and the fears of the persecutions that will follow often drown me. I dun wanna lie but I'm always so tempted to do so. I know God's grace will see me through and everything will turn out great in the end. but I just hate the feeling of not being able to do the things that I want heartily now. and i really wanna attend church events without feeling like that at all. and sometimes the battle can be so tiring. it's like I'm all alone. Sometimes I really want to talk to a christian friend about all these, but i dunno who to call or talk to. I'll talk to God. and though I do find great comfort in God but when I stop praying and reciting over his promises. Fear would creep up to me unknowingly again. I dunnno when that all I say will ever be understood or accepted. I dunnno when a compromise will be made. A reasonable one. and i dunnno what kind of a compromise it will be. it's so tiring spiritually. I just hope that all this will strengthen me at the end of the day. and I just pray so hard right now for my faith to be unwavering. when the circumstance press u so hard. it's so tempting for us to give in and just give up. but i know I cant and I wont. SISTERS AND BROTHERS PRAY FOR ME PLSS. for me to press on.
Thanksgiving. I really hope to be there and spend the last day of 2007 with cell. i'm asked to share my testimony of how GOD has seen me thru this year. As I recall, though it may not be as significant as queenie's, but what HE has done for me has really been so amazing and special for me. and i'm excited to share. I hope ppl will be as excited to hear too. Ok. I was a lil emo just now. just a lil while ago. typed till I cry. but now I feel happy as I recall what happened this year and what God has done for me. wow, I really have the ability to mood change very quickly. really Thanks God for that man coz it has been so useful for me esp during this period. or else I will be so bothered for the whole day by a phone call or a statement made . but at least now, even after a phonecall or statement, I can leave the burden aside first, concentrate on what I'm doing happily 1st and then pick up the burden again later. it kindda become the lifestyle I'm leading everyday alrdy.

Anyway, HAPPY 2007! I'm excited for 2008! i know it'll definitely be a greater and more blessed year than 2007 :)

YEA :) yest was quite a drama mama day! but i'm glad i chose GOD and i'm glad HE never forsakes me. angels never fail to be around me. And i believe when I make a stand for HIM, He'll restore all things for me and make it better than it has always been. it will seem impossible in human context but with GOD all things are possible! Definitely! i don't know where I found the courage to do all the episodes yest! but the holy spirit was guiding me all along. haven told yulin yet. but her 2 messages prompted me to do what was to be done when I was struggling! So GOD is really really amazing.

And i really love GOD for giving me this personality to just feel good about bad things that happen to me very quickly and just be my happy self again. I'm really glad that it doesnt affect service and not at all today! I wanna build a rock of faith that nth can ever tear down. I know LORD you are testing me and it is sth that I definitely can BEAR! if everything that is to happen is planned out, what can be wrong with GOD around in my life!

Thank you LORD, for i know thru this all u're doing sth in my household. Thanks for queenie and her prayer. yulin and her concern. bro and his advice. jessalyn, shiming, junsen for their encouragement. and wayne for his email. truly GOD with YOU around. there's nth i fear! now i pray for Camp BREAKAWAY and Christmas service! i praise you and i honor you in all things that i do. and i pray all these in JESUS precious name, AMEN!!

Prom is over. and it marks an end to my 2 yrs in TJC. i must say this journey has been a really fulfiling one. i really thank god for the privilege to enjoy my JC life soooo much! council, 1406, church and all the wonderful memories shared :) i've really gotta say i've grown alot as a person this 2 yrs!

YEA! So pre prom.....
In the morning like 2am i was trying to do my own nails and in the end turned out really bad lah. so in the morn! maricell my maid helped me do and i must say she's quite experienced. haha! then i start to pack my bags and stuff. then huixian came over to do her nails too and we bathed and prepare. then somehow by the time we left house it was alrdy 3pm near 4. so we had to chiong to the saloon. and we did our hair. it was like getting really late so I was doing make up while the auntie was helping me do my hair. HAHA! by the time we finish was around 540pm lah. and we still had to go to hotel to put my stuff, do make up, change into our dress and go to marina mandrain. so we really chiong like siao. hahaha! quite funny. 2 girls in nice hair and make up but in fbt shorts and big bags!


so when we finally reached grand copthorne (hotel council girls book for the night), caroline's fren was waiting for us. so we changed into our stuff in the hotel toilet and took a cab down to marina mandrain.


upon reaching, we receive a rose. and then went to find xiangting carol becca and claire to help us with our eye make up. so we finally after much chionging got everything done! And i look like that! HAHAA! pretty? i love my hair! HAHAHA!













The girl who chiong the whole afternoon with me! :)

Yea! so took lotsa photos during prom. i'll upload in onto my webshots:




hhaha! haven uploaded pic on it for a long time le. Ah Ha! so the party was quite fun lah! i like the start where the waiters came out to present the food and they started dancing. so cutee! then mw sabo me for nomination for inter jc pageant. and i sabo many others. HAHAA! then i like the free photo service thing. saw piggy's bro too. Yea, and the lucky draw prizes were good lah. heavily sponsored. and Yea! shaik and nie jin won best dressed. the 2 that i chose!

:) YEA! so prom was fun lah! thanks junior for organizing!

Then Post prom....

Yea, class jx,hx,ping,gord,alv,bobo,bekah went. sharon,yulin,shihui joined us too. so we just hang around to dance tgt lah. HAHAA. ok my 1st time there. quite new lah. erm learnt new things. and i enjoy myself with my grps of fren. but i dun think i'll frequent the place or go unless with big groups of ppl and guys whom i know around. coz it may be quite freaky. HAHA. then when the class ppl left, hanged out with the council girls. and was kindda high on lime juice. HAHAA! A security guard has a BIG huge crush on rebecca! HAHAA! then after that he changed his target to MAY! =O no lah, but he was like quite cute. folding roses and walking around giving to girls. but he's pretty harmless. HAHAA!

Yea, then when party ended around 3am we went back to our very messy hotel room beside zouk at grand capthorne! room 1414! took turns to bathe and we had our all time favourite girls' talk!! really enjoy company of my council girls! never ever fail to make me feel so warm and fuzzy! :)HAHAA! i really love listening to their interesting stories! we talked and finally slept at

around 6 plus am. PICS took! i really love messy hair pic! Yea, woke up around 1030 to continue somemore stories and then booked out of hotel at 12.











went siglap for brunch at pizza hut then sat there and slack. HAHA! it was raining like super heavy lah. then we chiong to McDonald's for ice cream, where i molested becca! HAHAA! and stayed there to wait for the rain to stop but it never did lah.

xiangting's cousin dropped may and i at the bus stop and we wait for kitty tan with her things and umbrella! HAHAA. and both of us were like super cold! but JC best fren and i haven spend time 1 on 1 in a long while le! so it's quite romantic! HAHA! me and may! super cold.

HI world! had 1406 chalet from 28--30th nov then had sats, church and persecution yest :) yup!
Chiong Berkeley application and had Bible Studies before chalet. WOW! GOd is indeed good lah! He postponed my MOE intership submission date so I could focus on my Berkeley application. so glad it's over now! 3 more to go! and i just finished my MOE one:)

Chalet was great great great esp when I spend with my bunch of fun-loving classmates. though we were like so unhealthy staying indoor all the time.
we played street soccer, saboteur, swap, bridge, went airport to fetch ernest (t3 &hx sprained her leg), played monkey, BBQ...
Yea, so glad god place me in 1406 :) with friends whom I am so comfortable and happy with. my JC life is indeed rich and colourful because of them and my council mates! Love TJC so much!

Yea, SATS yest at the starhub centre, I was like so tired after the paper. hope it went well. Yea, had lunch with ah boon. then went church. queued up and had pm. the sermon was great lah! :)

God's presence was so strong. I just love my Heavenly Father. like HE prepared my heart for the things that were about to come. and gave me words that encourage me. took away my fears. made me more than a conqueror. christian life is indeed not a bed of rose. many trials and persecution. but with God, everything is going to be alright. and with God in my life, I have no limitations to the things I can do!
I can become successful by my own strength. but I am still limited by the books I read and the things I come across. but with God.... I see the different and better side of everything and I can even do things that seem impossible!! mountain moving faith! to have faith is to have confidence in the LORD. and I trust in you my LORD. i really trust in you and stand on your words and promises. THe best has yet to come! I'm not going to forsake my father because of my fears. HE died on the cross for me! next 30 days are going to be great. it's not how I started but how I end.

wow! just when I thought last year's salvation and everything was good enough. it's not the end loh. every year just gets better and better! grew stronger, more spiritual and mature in christ. found a home and a family! :) more trials and stronger persecution.

Thanks FATHER! I stand on your promise that when one in the household is saved, all will be saved. I know where I come from and I know where I am going but they do not know where they come from and they do not know where they are going. You never taught me to fear. I was not created to fear so I have no fears in me. You who are in me is greater than You who are in this world. You will make me the head and not the tail, above and not beneath! :) I love you LORD. I am indeed MORE THAN A CONQUEROR! <333333 WOO HOOO! i love my lifeeee! :)
