week 14 has passed! Yay! But the storm will only pass after finals. Ah well.. This semester flew by real fast, maybe coz I had nonstop assignments and choir practices. The weeks just kept coming and going that by the time I realize it, I'm in the last week already.

What a hectic semester it has been. Juggling choir and assignments was not easy but I thank God I managed to pull through and I felt that my time management was better haha. Like when I know I have practices on thurs and sun nights, I made sure I finish my assignments before those nights and that gave me a sense of accomplishment and responsibility. I like that :) 

I remembered one of the days last week was my first day ever where I could just wake up without having to worry about choir/assignments etc. I think that day was a day with no lectures or choir practices. I really had nothing to do and I felt kind of lost, like I needed something to do, to keep me occupied. I forgot what it felt like to have nothing on my schedule and when that happens, I felt a bit weird and couldn't get used to it. But it was a good feeling, nonetheless :) 

As christmas comes tomorrow, it will be the last time choir will be singing those songs, or the last of our practices. I feel relieved that it's ending, but also kind of sad too, all the fun and hard work will just be memories. A bittersweet moment indeed. 

Merry Christmas, everyone. Cheers.

sampai dah December

everyone is saying bye Nov and hi dec. haha me too, Hello dec, u've arrived too soon but it's good because you make us reflect back on the past 11 months. Can't believe it's almost the end of 2013. It just seemed like yesterday was the beginning of '13 and lookie now, we're almost finishing the race. 

Can't believe too that it's been 2 months since the first choir prac started. Cepat. Our performance is drawing near and I can't help but worry over many things - small and big. However I'm reminded that God lives in me and He is my source of trust n strength. very thankful to those who've encouraged and gave me pointers during these 2 months. It helped me learn from my mistakes. :) 

so ironic, who would have thunk Dec is the busiest month of em all with xmas, easter production thingy and juggling my studies. All a student's life lah as they say. 

Have a good month, yall. 

btw, three glasses of Sangria gave me a minor skin rash. -.-" I know im not a very good drinker but rash?! huhu. this ain't the first time. I think it's an Asian thing.

Today I looked up the behind the scenes of Lord of the Rings and immediately I was reminded of the magnificent scenes in the trilogy that left me in awe and wonder. Clearly this is the best movie of all time because the production is so, so big and all the actors had to stay in NZ for 15months (imagine leaving your family etc behind for that  long period) to film this. And.. every little detail counts in making this movie spectacular; from the costumes to the set design and even to the stunt doubles for actors. Amazing.

Once my finals are over imma do a LOTR movie marathon. :) yay

on a side note, i haven't been doing any reading lately. I didn't pick up any novels to read, sigh. Too busy perhaps. I miss the feeling of reading. :/

Oh well.. so many things to do after my finals! can't wait then :) Have a good week

The Precious Search

Searching, searching and searching, but still she could not find
the One thing that brings fulfilment 
to the Soul;
The One thing that is the missing piece
to Life's puzzle;
that promises an eternal fountain of 
Joy
Hope
Peace
and Love;

The One thing that also allows trials and tribulations
so that we can learn to grow
and trust
in the One who is in control.
This One thing is precious -- more precious 
than silver or gold.
It is a relationship
with the One 
who carried the Cross
and paid the Price
for 
us.

Alas!
She found what she was looking for;
that ray of Light amidst the blanket of darkness.
A new heart, mind and soul,
she was never the same again,
for to live is Christ
and to die is gain.

-TM

Wow Hello November :) Time flies indeed. Speaking about time, I recall the latest bible study class last Sun. The person heading the study asked us, who created God? And he said God existed even before time. Wow. I remembered being refreshingly amazed and in awe of this. :)

Anyway... good news, my ankle is healing & no fractures. Finally went to see an orthopaedic surgeon & he gave me some physiotherapy exercises to do at home. See, all the trouble I had to go through by just one silly mistake of texting and walking down steps. Memang padan muka saya.

All is good so far. Getting busier as xmas/assignment deadlines draw nearer. But somehow I still manage. God helps me to stay afloat. 

I can do this! Nov, you are mine to conquer.
