"This year, or this month, or, more likely, this very day, we have failed to practise ourselves the kind of behaviour we expect from other people." c.s lewis
read c.s lewis's letters of screwtape(lent it 4rom mr sheun :P) and found it a book tt realli realli relates 2 me , well ,2 anyone of u wonderin wad this book is about , its bout this demon called screwtape writin a letter 2 another junior demon and "teachin" him and guidin him hw 2 bring this person he is "assigned" 2 to Hell and pull him away 4rom the "enemy"(God)... and guess wad ? if the book was a checklist 2 see if i had fallen into the schemes of the devil , i wld have almost ticked all the boxes ...a first book of its kind ive ever read,inspirin,humorous and fun ! (maybe cause i dun realli read tt much ) hehehe , but definately reccomended :)
see tt cutie above ? hahahaz went 2 prayer meetin 2dae and joy vs ning,and jie en (they got into a quarrel) over sum dumb books ..lolx but ya , its fun 2 see childeren quarrel cause u know tt in less then a dae , they'll juz shake hands and start playin 2getehr again .. went bugis yest 2 buy bible wid hao , im glad tt hao is concerned bout his spiritual life and strives 2 know more bout God ..u see wantin 2 know more bout God but juz sittin tre doin nth is nt gonna work , sittin down tre waitin hopefully tt God will turn ur life 4 the better without doin anythin is nt gonna work!!
watchin this stephen chow's movie nw , its super funny la hahahahaz



ive been down these few daes and im realli sorrie 2 everyone of my frenz if my mood has affected u or irritated u or wadeva , I'm sorry, I don't want to make you all feel depressed or anything like that…..
I wanna sae sorrie cause im realli nt myself 2dae,and ive few ppl angry , irritated by my craziness and speech. yeah, i hope im forgiven cause its always when im alone tt i reflect on the dae and found tt ive been a realli lousy person ..i hope i quickly get back 2 becomin myself :)
All of that said, I have been reminded recently, in my own journey, that I cannot imagine my life - I cannot imagine walking through the pain of these moments - without my faith in God. Beyond faith, it is a relationship, with Jesus. There is a sense lately that He is with me, that I am not alone in these moments, that He is there in the mornings when the storms come through, and He is there in the night when I cannot sleep. He is there in the day when my eyes fill with tears.Yeah , i can never "run" away 4rom HIM no matter hw i try ...really blessed~
All we get is today. God is with us on this journey. Always.

this poem realli relates 2 me..
[I had forgottenHow to read Your presence
In the Words of the Book
In the light of the dawn
In the caress of the wind
In that warmth that sometimes brings
A tingleIn the midst of cold
I had forgotten
How to hear
Your voice
In the lilt of each melody
In the call of each bird
In the rustle of leaves underfoot
In the silence that sometimes falls
For a moment
In the midst of noise
I had forgotten
How to feel Your touch
In the fall of each raindrop
In the softness of stray cats
In the brush of his hand
In the swelling push of each breath that take
In the midst of existing
I had forgotten
And I had forgotten us
But You never forgot
And more than memory
More than watching
You moved
And You came to me
And You spoke to me
And You touched me
In the midst of my rebellion(Though I did not know it was)
And I remembered
Your love never changes
Your grace never falters
Your loyalty to my changing heart
CompleteAnd by healing me
You have also broken me
Here at Your feetI remember
And I forgetAnd I weep for the time that was lost
But yet You comfort me
And restore me
And exalt me
And I will never again forget
Your faithfulness.]
circumstances changes me in such a way i dun even know myself anymore sumtymes,wad i want ? wad is the reason tt im doin the things im doin nw? i love children alot, cause i see them being able 2 express themselves without hidin certain things....the innocence in children , and total reliance ....Jesus once said "Let the little children come to me,and do not hinder them,for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these" Mark 10:14
i pray tt my heart will be lyk those of a child , trusting and relying on God because i by myself can do nth ....
"Lord, may the joy of You be my strength"
Oh,ya i wanna thank sing choon 4 buyin me the science ten year series ....i realli thank God tt i hab frenz lyk u :)
