Rainy season again!!

sheeshh..yess..its rainy season again..and for those of you who have been following my blog..since the old days..haha..you'll know how much i hate this weather..ugh..

its monday..and i'm feeling uber lethargic and i'm here in my uni's library..i'm feeling soooo sleepyyy...i just reaaaly dont like this feeling..blahhh..*pause*
okay now i'm in the lecture hall and i found out that there's a test..heh..err..or at least i think there is..its written on the white board "TEST - design and sociology"...lol..
besides the fact that i'm probably screwed for not knowing that there's a test today..*pause*
okay! i'm done with the test, breezed through it..it wasnt thaatt hard i guess..haha..

ok anyways..i dun have pictures to post, but there's one thing at the back of my mind when i was walking down the hallways to the lecture theather..it was regarding last saturday's devotion that shared in ccsm..no.its not really about the devotion, but it was about what caught my attention when Ben introduced me, he called me a "rocker", and when i said "dont call me that la", he called me a "skater boy", and then "emo rock".

i mean its nothing, i dont really mind being called those names..cuz the fact is probably, i am all these things..but the thought here is, are we really what people label us?
or is there a different kind of impression that we want people to see us?
just a thought for us christians, what we should always keep in mind is that no matter how we portray ourselves to the world, we as christians are always representing the image of God.

And as a rep for God, we have no choice but to be the best for God, we're living as a reflection of God..and everyperson who doesnt know God will have to see God in us..its not only our duty to just bring our non-believer friends to church but to let them experience God through our lives.
Thats how they'll know that God is real and God is working and alive in this world without hope.
I know, as i read back on what i typed..it seems really hard..and such a BIG responsibility for us to carry. Now, i may not always be oh so Godly, infact shamefully, i'm not most of the time. But i'm reminding myself that i need to keep trying and keep relying on God to help and change me.

This brings me to how being genuine is also important, no point in us faking it. Just putting on a mask of righteousness and live out that fake identity that we have set for ourselves but to be human in trying to be a person that reflects God. No one is perfect, but God is. So as we continue to die to ourselves daily, rely on God. Tho it may seem like its super hard and in days or even weeks or months we've not really progressed anywhere..keep on trying..God never gives up on us. So we shouldnt either.

OKay, it may seem like alot. But i'm just typing out what i feel..cuz there's nothing better than to try and not move back than to not try at all and keep falling back.

Rainy season again!!

The Only Way Out Is Through

Hello people!

okay first of all i would like to wish Marianne a BLESSED BIRTHDAY!!woot!!

ok..i know she's gonna kill me for putting her picture up here!lol...but hey!its a nice picture whaattt=) and despite the fact that we've always been bickering and irritating the living day lights out of each other, i'm very blessed to see how far she has come=) and i pray that you will continue to persevere and learn to polish your God given talent to use it to serve Him ya?when things seem too much to handle, always know where your help and inspiration comes from k?I know how its like, and really everytime i least expect myself to come up with designs or even the inspiration to draw, God works through me,if only i will allow Him to, so enable yourself to be used by Him ya?always be obedient!=) I'm glad to have you in my CG and infact i'm glad ALL of you are in my CG(for those of you who are in my CG) let go paaahtay again k?celebrate Marianne's bday!

updates on last week:

I took the boys out for a full day of fun to celebrate Shawns bday.Those who came were Shawn,Gabriel and Eugene. We went over to OU to hangout and decided to go to the batting cages, we've all never been there before, so we obviously sucked the first round,but after getting used to it, we got better!and Gabby was the master of baseball..!99% hit rate! haha..

mat rempit!lol!!!
Bang bang! you're dead!
DOnt fear the reaper!!!
LOL!
LOLx2

later after that we just hang out and shopped till it was time for prayer meet, its been a great time hanging with these guys!

And recently i've been seeing the need to rely on God increasing..and for those of you who have been wondering why everything is not going your way..you just need to find your way back to God. Its hard..cuz nothing always happens the way we want it to be, and at times we just get so caught up in things of the world that we forget what really sustains us in this life. Friends, dont let anything replace God's place in your life ya? infact continue to daily surrender your life to God whenever you know you're out of touch..its a constant thing. Dont make excuses for why things go wrong. Just trust in God.

Cell Group dinner!

so remember!!buckle up!!!HAHAHA

A New Beginning!

Hey there!

Last saturday was the beginning of a new responsibility for me!

A Cell Group! i was hesitant at first and back when kenneth was still here we were both saying that we're not ready and we're not worthy to serve as leaders..and God has been pushing me to a more evident leadership role in youth..and there has been a few speakers that have come and gone and they've all been talking about how you dont need to be a perfect holy joe to take on God's work..all God wants is a willing heart to serve Him and of course a constant effort to change into the person that He wants you to be..and all that takes obedience and sacrifice=)

So for those of you out there who God has been hinting and pointing you to a leadership direction, please dont shut if out..instead ask God to help you see what He wants you to do.

And always remember that what we think we want or what we want to be in the future might not be whats best for us, instead always remember to submit to God's will and plan, because God has only THE BEST instore for our future, if only we're obedient to Him=)

and so here is my new family!

Allison,Josh,Eric,me,Jan,Kenson and tracey! there were two missing people here..Marianne and Vivian..but its all good..we'll have another pic real soon..!

and i also thank God for putting me and Jan through alot of things in the past..and its because of all these things that have happened, good and bad it has made us the person we are today and i'm glad that we're both together in this ministry!I'm really looking forward to what God has instore for our cell group!woot!

oh and the bookmark/stickers that i made for me CG members to help them remember how to pray for people!

after youth, i went for dinner with mae,darren and shawn..and it was there that darren told me that KRISPY KREME is in Malaysia..and i was like whaat?!?!

but after explaining, its actually not Krispy Kreme but the former worker from Krispy Kreme Indonesia that has opened a branch in KL and its called J.CO donuts..but apparently the dude has all the secrets of Krispy Kreme.haha...yeah so we decided to take a drive down to The Pavilion, KL to see what the buzz is all about...and no..mae didnt go cuz she had to teach..lol..anyways..we parked in Times Square, the traffic and parking was a killer...apparently parking in the Pavilion can cost up to 30 bucks!!??!crazy..thank God we decided to park in TS and walk..heh..

the grand entrance to the gigantic mall...it sorta reminded me of Orchard road in s'pore.

mmmmm*drools* donutsssss.....gahhhhh..
and yesss..we waited in line...a very long line..haha..and it was 18mins before they closed..lol


Me and me donuts!!!muahahahaha..bought one dozen..i'm such a pig..heh... and so did shawn! and darren of course..but he went missing when we were taking pics...
the interior is cute..its like coffee mugs as zippers..

well it was good...the donuts i mean..but sadly i cant compare it to Krispy Kreme cuz i've never tasted it before!!so i can only compare it with Big Apple....and J.CO wins..hands down..the donuts are so much better textured=)
ok i'm hungry now..hehe..
oh and also thank God for helping me with my sudden exam today..okay everyone knew..but i forgot..hehe...sociology...gg..haha..but i answered everything la..it wasnt thaat hard..
woots...and after this dinner with me CG members!!i really am very excited about my CG..=)
have a great week people! and remember to keep praying for others!!
