Blessed Christmas everyone!
Home is great.
Food is great ( tummy size not so great).
Hope you're having an awesome time surrounded by family and friends, celebrating the birth of Christ.
To ten million fireflies
Lyrics | Owl City lyrics - Fireflies lyrics
I really like this song.
Sometimes all I need is a dose of Hillsong. Hillsong. Good or bad?
All I know is that, it makes me want to go home and read my Bible and pray.
MY MOM HAS FACEBOOK! I know it's become very common for parents to have a facebook profile.
But check out what my mom wrote on hers.
It's a bit blur.
But in the about me section, mommy wrote that she was 'nice and friendly'.
So cute.
Today didn't start out right.
I broke my spectacles again. 3rd time this year. =(
My period finally came.
I got an email saying that I didn't get a Uni scholarship for my PhD. =(
And it's only 12.35 pm.
Still surviving.
Psalm 23:1, I read it this morning.
Random bit, I googled PSA ( for PSA test) and one of the first suggested search term that popped up on google was Psalm 23.
I did a personality test I found on facebook and I thought it was pretty accurate. Here goes.
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.The seriousness of your love:
You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve. Tomorrow is a new day.
To try again.
To tell people you love them.
To smile rather than frown.
To pray for others.
To be different from today
Thank You God for the many tomorrows in my life.
We are adults! Had dinner at Banyan tree last night with Jun Shi, Ginny and Emmerie to celebrate Jun Shi's 23rd birthday.
A bunch of giggly, happy girls.
And we talk as girls do.
Ginny's moving into a house and getting a dog!
Emmerie is making big decisions in life about where to spend the rest of her life.
Jun Shi and I applying for and moving into a house.
And it dawned on me. That we have become adults.
In many ways, I feel exactly the same as the day I arrived in Australia.
But in so many other ways, I feel I have grown up. I have changed.
I have become extremely practical. And a little bit more cynical. And a lot more colder.
My life seems to be really busy. Yet, I do a lot less.
I worry a lot more. And I pray a lot less.
I talk a lot more. Yet I think a lot less.
Instead;
I wish I were idealistic and warmer and less cynical.
I wish I spoke less and listened more.
I wished I lived a life where Christ is glorified everyday.
Where I would not be ashamed of speaking up when things are not right. Where I would not be quiet and defenseless. Where I would have humility and love like Christ did.
I've gone completely off tangent.
What I meant to say is that, I bought my air ticket home with my own credit card and my own hard earned money and I am an ADULT!!!!!
A PRAYER Dear Heavenly Father,
I'm sorry that I haven't spoken to you much.
I'm sorry for all the bad things I've done.
I'm sorry that I've taken You and other people for granted.
I'm sorry that I've loved little and been apathetic towards others.
I'm sorry that I don't act in a way that shows You are my truly awesome, abundant provider.
I'm sorry that I've complained instead of given thanks.
I'm sorry that I'm so often sorry but I'm not truly repentant.
Dear Heavenly Father,
I thank You that You are good.
I thank You for Your mercy, through Christ.
I thank You for Your word and for people that speak Your word.
And I thank You for all the good things and people you put in my life.
I thank You for the path and day ahead.
Amen
PS: Thank you for giving me my boyfriend =)
I'M ADDICTED TO PANADOLS Been rather unmotivated to work.
Rather stay at home and sleep for 14 hours. =p
Also the chronic headache that doesn't seem to go away does not help when sitting in front of a computer screen all day.
Is it the cup of coffee that I need to have every morning that's causing the headaches?
Or is it because of the virus in my body that won't DIE!!!!!!!
Took two days of work this week.
Hopefully that will kill the virus and the headaches. And the laziness.
If that doesn't, the amount of paracetemol I've been having the past 2 days should.
Arggggghhhhh.
