That darn teh tarik.....I'm still awake now cause of it. Went out for supper after LDP with the AVP team. Gluttony!!!! Despite my super filling dinner, oreo's after that and 'natural confectionary' snakes, i couldn't resist the temptations of good o'l roti telur at bismi.
Went for a drive with a friend after that. We initially wanted to drive on West Gate Bridge but kinda lost our way....Ended up going to St Kilda's beach. Parked the car on the road side and walked along the pier. What a sight....The reflection of the moonlight on the sea on one side. Pitch black on the other. The wind blowing so strong and the stars(some were probably satelites..)Hmm...still a bit overwhelmed by the beauty of God's creation. So carefully crafted=) Some dude was there fishing by himself. Wonder if he caught anything. The wind was so strong...probably all the fishes were swimming much deeper....hehe
2:05am and i'm still awake....Talking to 3 friends from Malaysia. That'll teach me to consume caffeine after 10pm...Anyways, don't think i'm making sense anymore....gona try to make myself tired.....
Feeling so crap today. Bought Pringles and finished close to half of it already. I'm eating so unhealthyly. Maybe i'm just anticipating good food when mum comes, so i better pig out first.
LDP in an hour. every muscle in my body is feeling so lazy to go. My eyes especially....Just screaming out for some rest. Only managed to sleep around 4 this morning. Haven't had that much rest since. I know i shouldn't be complaining. It's the holidays!!! But i'm soooooo lazee...Probably one of the laziest person ever.....muhahahahhaha.....
Sigh....

Hmm...i don't exactly call myself faithful.....More like faith-less. Yes...the song was sung. Kg recorded it. Oh man...i cringed when i heard it. The most nerve-wrecking thing i've ever done. Yes....jon's was prob idol. But mine was this. hehe...Surprisingly, it didn't matter when i sang out of tune(DUE TO NERVESSSSS). I know i could see some 'evil' smiles when it happened but i guess....it was great being able to share that 'prayer which so happen has a tune to it' with the people there. Even if the song touched at least one person, i'm thankful i obeyed=)
Spent quite a big chunk of today doing nothing productive. Went to the city for a walk...then i was on the phone...then the tv...then slept...then tv...then food. Oh man...feeling so...unhealthy =P
Parents are coming on Thurs morn. Gona have to wake up early and hopefully get to drive. That's if my bro's awake enough cos if i'm driving, he's gota be MORE awake than usual...teehee.....
Finally, to zakky and aron. Hope u guys have a great time in KK=)
Suffering produces perseverence, perseverence produces character and character produces hope. Those were the words of a wise and humble man who wrote the book of Romans. Wow....It didn't hit me that hope actually is a byproduct of character and character was a byproduct of perseverence. Perseverence was in turn a byproduct of suffering....(*doh. I'm sure you figured that out)Hope isn't found at the start of the suffering but it comes when you have suffered, persevered and a new character has developed. hehe..To those who already had that figured out....sorry lar....=P
Anyways.....
Am really really tired now....To those going back to their home country for their hols....have fun!!!!!
ps:thx cher for ur comment...will try the pumpkin thing!=P
Somehow, i woke up this morning feeling....different. Not that anything has really changed but it sure feels different. Maybe i found hope in a God who really does care =)
I must say...i haven't been that honest with myself and the people around me. When asked "How's things?", i conveniently reply," GREAT!" trying my best to put on a pathetic smile...which always seem to fool them. OR maybe they just couldn't be bothered to keep asking. Well, the truth is, i haven't been feeling THAT great....in fact, life kinda sucked for the past 2 months. (No...it's not the time-of-the-month thing!)
I know i'd attend church just to attend church. There'll be mornings where i couldn't careless about waking up. But i knew at the back of my mind that i didn't wana entertain that thought. Sure enough....Tim preaches a life-changing sermon and then the Kleenex moments. But life goes on.....This continued till last Sunday. Maybe it's just the accumulation that lead me to a LISTENING POINT where i had to make a decision. I was sorely tempted to leave my faith and carry on with a life that's probably less difficult cause then i didn't need to bother about anything and could do EVERYTHING.
Well, i'm still in the Valley of Baca but it's getting better....=)
To those who endured my long-winded crap over the phone or even face-to-face, thank you! =)
Anyways....approached by joh to do an item on Sunday breakfast. So, the Queen(cheer!!!!) and i...accompanied by Zakky on the piano, are gona be presenting a song. Argh! I'm absolutely terrified to sing in public but i'm just gona do it. Encouraging words from Karen-it's not about whether you preached or sang well, but that you actually obeyed God and did it. If God thinks you have enough potential, how dare you think otherwise.
So, to those who happen to wake up early on Sun morn, do pop by early at church=)
Yes....finally. My first entry at listeningpoint=) It's been such an amazing week. Ever had the feeling where you're both happy and sad. Relieved and yet worried. That's how i've been feeling since my last exam ended. Exhausted...but at the same time, i'm thankful for His strength sustains me. Public appreciation to those who supported me along the way-smses and entertaining me over the phone=)
shucks...gota go make a phone call....
Will write more in my next entry...
(wonder if anyone notices that i've started blogging here....
