new year!

dear diary,

holidays are gonna be over soon!! so fast! i did many things this holidays, met up with many people whom i didn't meet up with during school term. people like sean, jefri, wei ting, qianqi, dominic, jennifer, qiu rong, jie min, rachel, michelle, soo min, puay bing, zhi wen, michelle hui, grace wang, joanna kam, li sun, xiu min and crusade people! yup all the going out and accumulated and made me sick today! tee.

holidays have also been a time of rest, i guess a slight break from doing ministry, but more of thinking of ministry. i think i really got tired out last sem from ministry and sort of lost the purpose of ministry, something that i know that is really important.

but these few days, during f comm meeting and also ministry planning at st retreat and bible camp, it really refreshed me on about faithfulness in this aspect. yup :) and also i really am impacted by something that happened too!

also i learnt, that nothing beats having a 'good' relationship, in the sense that if it doesn't work out, then so be it, its better that we leave it on good terms rather than turn your face on the other person!

michelle's sleepover was very fun! :) hehe. rachel's party was a good time of reminiscing about the funny moments in bp days all the marching and all. and qiu rong's jokes were like, hahaha very funny!!

its also amazing how the friendship with jennifer can still maintain till now and all :)

kind of looking forward to the next sem and also i didn't really tell anyone about this, but since michelle you're the only one who reads my blog, you can know! haha

i kind of am thankful for my grades this semester, that though it wasn't maintained or increased, but it gave me a break from the stress of maintaining it and all. i guess the stress of maintaining the gpa really really was weighing on my mind. and i am really thankful that i can be doing something that i actually do like. it's like so interesting to read about psych and all :)

though there's still quite a few uncertainities on my mind, but God has really shown Himself to be faithful and true. and thanks haryl for sharing during f comm. God ultimately looks at the heart i know. just really gotta keep praying lor, that during the sem when things really get busy and i get tired, that i will still serve from the inner self, not just fulfilling obligations or responsibilites.

bible reading has also been good! read about ephesians the one on husbands and wives. what that struck me was paul's use of marriage as an illustration of Christ and the church. to think that Christ calls the church His bride, and gave up his life for the church, is something that wowed me. :) that God is really good.

oh michelle want to tell you something too. you know for the past sem i have been praying for samho occasionally, haha that God will comfort her in her times of sorrow and pain. And during your birthday party she says she has been going to church quite regularly, i was really like stunned for a while haha. that God hears my prayers lor :)
