Happy Easter!

I absolutely love this year's Holy week. Will get back to telling that little story some other day. I just came back from Easter Vigil and it lasted 3 hours and 15 minutes. The readings were good and the Homily was great and the best part is I understand more about God. Miricles happened on Good Friday! And, I am anticipating more of God's works in my life. 

Holy Week is not a symbolization of uniting with family, thinking of Jesus and how He saved us by dying for us and NOT TO MENTION the fact that He resurrected from the dead and became our Saviour for our sins and our Salvation. NO. It is a reminder of what we should be doing throughout the year. I mean, Jesus has already suffered for us and went through hell (literally!). It is not only in Holy week that we should be reminding ourselves about this Sacrifice and Promise and putting all this warm-fuzzy feelings back into our closed up box at the back of our minds after Easter. So for this year, I want to blow the dust of the lid of my box and remember that our Lord has redeemed us and share His love with all. The choice is also now yours. It always have been. 

As I'm sitting writting this, I am all smiles cause after finally accepting Him into my life, I've changed for the better. No more depressed, angry feelings. No more "Ugh, I'm all alone" thoughts. And the pain that I have felt, they aren't that bad. As if there was already someone watching over me and protecting me. Why would I have to worry? 

And to figure, I just wanted to post up a gretting and warm wishes. Haha, I guess not. But anyways, I want to do as promised and wish all of you...

HAPPY EASTER AND PEACE BE WITH YOU!

Awesome~

Life's been hectic!!!

Well, I am finally free enough to update a bit on what has been happening. In the process of IELTS and school exams plus my music, I managed to squeez in a trip to Harvest Haven with the rest of the JY Core Team .It was uber awesome. The pressence of God is still tingling under my skin and in my heart everytime I pray. The night when we reached home from Ipoh, I prayed for my music exam the next day which I didn't study that much for and when the next day came, I had the calmness and peace of the Lord and everything (nearly) that came out are the only few things that I studied for!!! PRAISE THE LORD! (Will try to blog about harvest haven some other day... I'm tired XD)

Besides that, after my last exam, I had cantor practice and meetings and camps to attend so I haven't really caught up with my sleep. But it feels so good and it's deffinitely worth doing all of these. Now, readers, please pray that I will excell, then I will give glory to God (Not that I'm not already giving). =D

Today was the Primary School Camp for IC (Immaculate Conception) and we (Marcy, Felicia, Winnie, Lyn, Mark, Jude and Aundrey) were on the faccilitating team. I came late cause someone punctured my tyres. (Got slightly screwed by parents for that) but all was well. I still praise the Lord.  We have to give thanks in everything we go through right.

Anyways, the funniest things happened today, all the way from college right up to after the camp. One on the top of the list is the fact that I left Clarence in the McD parking lot and I didn't realise till 15 seconds later when Lyn was trying to tell me that I left him behind. I was too absorbed in getting my phone charger out. Lol. And I actually stopped halfway through to ask her what she was saying and she explained that I left Clarence behind. This Mark didn't even say anything. Before that, Clarence tried to get in from the other door, so when I heard the door closed, I automatically assumed that he was already inside the car. MANATAU, he went to enter through the next door. So I drove off thinking that everyone was already in. Sigh. What a day. There were ups and downs and I praise GOD for every single tiny thing. From the fact that my college mates stayed with me throughout the ordeal and that I have friends to laugh with and do all this mad things.

AMEN!!!

Numb-ness

Dear Nanny,

I know you are in a better and glorious place right now where all are right and there are no evil. And I also know that you are finally with our Lord now. Finally reunited with God. I am glad that you are no longer in pain and suffering and get to enjoy the banquet that He would have set for you to welcome you. I am reassured that God will welcome you with open arms and you finally get to see the Almighty alongside the rest that have parted before us.

To your 96 years of life that brought all of us into this world, I thank you. For being a mother, grandmother and great grandmother, we thank you. We are not possible without you. I'm grateful as not many can say they knew their great grandmother and that you were healthy all these years. Last of all, I bid you farewell, Nans and I know I don't tell you this enough, but I love you and I am going to miss you.  Bask in the radience of the Lord.

Lots of love from all of us.

Damn

Look, if you have a problem with me, tell it straight to my face. I mean, bloody hell, through all the subliminal messages, I know that something is wrong. I mean, name the whole class, and miss out mine, fine, that's alright. I mean, that's your life. But I would really appreciate it if you told me straight up front that you didn't like me. I'm just saying.

Exams

Exams exams and more exams. The stress of it all doesn't seem to end. I mean, right after midterm, is presentations, then assignements, then more tests and finally exams. All in the course of seven weeks. IT AIN'T ENOUGH!!! And this semester, I also have to sit for IELTS two days before Chemistry and Design finals and next week is my Music Theory EXAM!! Oh my GOD, there are loads of things to handle and I'm afraid that I might not do so well. But through God everything is possible. God first, right? 

Yeah, I banned myself from going to Shalom for this week and next weekend I'll be in Gopeng. Haih... What a day. I can't even understand half the questions for the writing and reading part of IELTS. It is english and I can't seem to answer the questions. I feel so degraded right now. Anyways, of to practice more IELTS. Just needed to vent.

First Time

Well, today was the very first time I gave blood! Woo-hoo! And the thing about feeling dizzy and that it hurts, well it did not happen to me! Praise the Lord. Hopefully with this, I get to save lives. I know it is not much but hey, I'm proud of myself for doing it. And today was a double bonus as I finally know that I am B+. Haha. 

Anyways, besides that, I am at least the 4th rarest blood type. I feel so special right now. =D This LENT I want to help more in the community, see what can be done to make a difference. Quite a big task for me but bring it on! Heh. That's all for now. Assignments here I come again! PREPARE FOR DOOM!!!

Wishes and Dreams

Well, since tomorrow IS Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day. I wish you readers out there a happy prosperous loving day! Uhrm, yeah, that sounds about right. All you married people out there, please remember to give me an angpow k? =D Haha. Enjoy, guys!

Thoughts...

I really should make my blog creative. Bu then again, simplicity is at its best, ain't it? And it makes like so much easier... But then, it can be boring. But I think my blog is cool. Don't you? Ah, don't answer that, cause I already know the answer. OF COURSE YOU DO!!! =D

I woke up with my flu being even worse than before, I'm coughing out phlegm and it is all stuck in my throat. The unimmaginable tightness it there all the time and I currently lost my voice. Plus, sore throat. And guess what, Chinese New Year is around the corner and all I want to do is sleep. Haih. Life is life, isn't it? I think the heat is fighting with my body and resulted in a large collision - BOOOMMM! Ah, well.. just another sick day. 

Besides that, I am really worried for my oldest dog, Princess. Her tail which used to be fluffy and full is now shedding and frail. I literally can see her skin. Before that, I couldn't even touch her skin on the tail cause there was just so much hair. Haih, I'm really worried for her. She is old but I really don't want her to fall sick so soon. I love her a lot. As for Angel, well, she is just being herself, running here and there, not giving a care in the world and genuinely happy to see me. I love her loads too... =) My dogs are one of the best things in my life. When no one is around and I hang out with them, they know my emotions and feel accordingly. They are my babies and I'm dreading the day they will be no more.

It's this time of night...

It is times like this which I know I will regret in the morning,
It is when my mind starts to wander off, thinking about what if
It is when I go into overdrive and insomnia hits me with a loud THUMP
It is when my real emotions come out
It is when I start regretting and living in the past again
It is when I ask myself, why is it that everyone else can have a good life, but not me...

Whatever happened to the good friends I had?
What happened to the love and acceptance I felt last time?
Why is it that nothing good ever last?
Why is this life filled with more pain than joy?
More hate than love?
More regrets than good memories?

It is this time of the night,
When I think I'm all alone in this world
It is this time of the night,
When I think that no one cares
That I am not special enough for anyone to appreciate
That if anything were to happen to me, no one would notice...

And when I want to give it all up and wallow in sorrow
I hear a voice in my head and It is saying, 'It's not that bad',
Urging me to smile, cheering me on,
asking me not to give up and fall
Telling me not to be afraid,
Reminding me that there is always people that will love me for who I am...

It is this time of the night,
When I know that God is with me...
Reminding me that with Him there's love.
That with Him, I know that life would be just fine
It is this time of the night,
When I end the day with a smile,
knowing that I have achieve something in life,
enough to be blessed to feel God's love

Ending your day with a smile just makes all the day's trials worthwhile and less tedious. 

I love you guys for being there for me, for caring for me, for accepting me for what and who I am, without complaining and shunning me, for loving me. Thanks a lot for making me who I am today and I'm proud to say that even though life is not always a bed of roses, I can end my day with a smile BECAUSE OF YOU...
