Still here

I'm still in Singapore!
Trip postponed to April 10-20.
And it's only half the duration now...
As much as I lurf to travel, am quite relieved to not go for so long this time.

Dad just took another MRI, results to be out April 2. 
Pray that it shows improvement! :)

I saw the moon rise last night over the sea ... pretty pretty. :)

off the wall

Okei, usually you only get to see this pic of me if you come over to my place.
It's hanging on one of the walls.
But here it is ... because the pic after this is oh-so-cute!!!! 


Isn't Caleigh such a precious babe?!
Angel came over with her one day to join the MJ craze, and since I wasn't around, they decided to make the best of it by spoofing the 'lil me.
Haha ... cutest spoof ever!



She's the sweetest gal of her age I know.

luxu-rain-t


It's a nice-kind of rainy night.
Meaning it's the kind of night that is just nice for strolls when the rain stops.
Or even for sitting at the bus-stop while waiting for it to stop.


Not the "I'm-feeling-so-stuffy" kind.
Temperature's just right. 
It's like lovely Melbourne spring weather. :)



And while we're on this, how would you like to shower under this?!


Wowee right? :)

monologue

"I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. The day may come when the courage of Men fails; when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship; but it is not this day - an hour of wolves and shattered shields, when the Age of Man comes crashing down - but it is not this day!!! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good earth-I bid you stand!" -Lord Of The Rings, Return Of THe King-


I remember when Jesscy did this speech in Hokkien and cracked us all up! 

Haha. 


Speaking of which, they screened LOTR on tv when we were in HK.

Caro and I settled down in our beds to watch it and then we heard Sam calling Frodo "Far-la-dou"!!!

Yes, the entire thing was dubbed over in Cantonese! 

Haha... As much as I lurf Canto, it was so hilarious.

And although Caro's the pure-bred Cantonese, I'm the one explaining the story to her cos I'm the bona fide LOTR fan who knows the trivia.


Okei, still on a quest for the answer.

It feels like an unsolvable puzzle, for now, but I know when the answer comes, it'll be whoosh like an iVision. 

Can't wait. 


I'm leaving for Taiwan this Thurs, and I realised I'll be gone for 23 days!

Gosh. That's 3 weeks. 

I've gotta have lots of faith for some things while I'm away. :P


Did I mention that one of my recent favourite words is "dependable"?

(It's also a long lost word to me)

A dependable person is a gem.

Specifically a diamond, because you won't be able to see the glimmer until the coal has gone through extreme heat and pressure, which is really fire and polishing. 

You don't recognize them at first, but you can't help but see it through the years. 

Left to its own devices, it takes thousands of years for a lump of coal to become a diamond.

If you don't think you have those thousands of years to live, a better way would be to subject yourself to a crash course in trials and tribulation.

Meaning that, sometimes you may crash, but you still run the full course.

Haha. 

After all, trials will be there anyway. 

Might as well use them to your advantage. 

Hee hee.


Happy Easter Sunday, btw! :)

need a breakthrough

Okei, someone asked me a very simple personal question today.
I gave a rather "correct" answer, but honestly, it was shallow, even empty to my own ears.
I even stammered saying it.

Now I'm provoked.
I need to break through and get my answer to this question.
Pray for the Holy Spirit to guide okei?

integrity vs. glory

What's more impressive than a person who wins an award?
- Someone who has the integrity to say she didn't.

Phoebe realised that she was placed in the wrong category, which meant that she was not eligible for the win. 
It was entirely the committee's fault *Shachew glaring at their Web site*.
Of course, Phoebe could have kept quiet and simply receive her prize as well as the honor. 

But she spoke up.
- Even if it cost her the prize.
- Even if she has to face and explain to everyone who's congratulating her.
(Trust me, that is one of the worst bits)

There's no embarrassment 'cos the fact is, she's paying for someone else's mistake.
It takes greater character and strength to do that than to win the competition.
Hence, I'm even prouder of her now. 

You go, gal. :)
