Good Bye Hostel, We Will Meet Again

Sitting here by my laptop
Listening to Daughtry
Reminiscing on my college/hostel life
Knowing that this will be my last post for this semester

Cant wait to go home
To see my family, friends and church
I really miss them so
They'll always be a part of my heart

But still I cant but to just sit in ponder
At all the things that have happened in this 2nd semester
The first sem was already amazing but the second was better
In awe I still wonder

The new friends I met
The new experiences I felt
The disappointments I faced
And the abounding Joy I had

All these will be added into my mental diary
Somewhere deep in my mind
And they shall never be forgotten
As I remember them at whichever moment

Cant believe that God has truly blessed me with so
Nothing I did to deserve all these
But yet He has blessed me with such as these
To just gaze at His awe and beauty I just cant resist

Life has been like a roller coaster ride
The fun ones that makes our hair rise
Not because they're super duper scary
But because the moment you feel on top of the world
You can have a instant fall the next moment
(what do I know,I've never sat on one =P)

Its just been crazy!!
In a good and wonderful way that is

Played CS and L4D last night
As something I'll do for my last night
A few of us and the pro left early
The game didnt go as expected

Slept over at my friends room
We're like part of the 10% of Diploma's left
Everywhere is so quiet
But I kinda like this difference

She lives on the 3rd floor
So coming down the stairs this morning
Looking at a part of the green grass on the other side
Between the guys block
I have never seen it from this aspect
It was BEAUTIFUL.

Got me thinking how sometimes we see things
In our own way or perspective
Never realizing that things can be
Way better and prettier than what is seen

Hostel has opened up my eyes
To the wildness and tameness of how college life could be
We choose to live it this way or that
Sometimes forsaking what comes after that

I love my hostel
Believing its where God has placed me
At this time and at this moment of my life
I am truly where I am suppose to be

Packed my stuff, cleaned my room
And off the airport soon will I be
Ok, Daughtry really makes you feel homesick
But home is where the heart is
And that's where I want to be

Thank you God for everything
The people and experiences
The wonder of Your glory
And your awe-inspiring presence

And thanks for putting me here in hostel
I place that I have fallen in love with

Good Bye Hostel
I would wanna say thanks for the memories
But it is only the beginning
I'll save that for another time
For we will meet again.<3>

Pre-CPR feelings...

I don't know why
Why I'm feeling like these
Just washed my clothes
And unpacked my stuff

Soon I'll be packing again
And back to Melaka I'll be going yet again

Got some homework to do
Some mails to check
And some blogs to see

Man! Is God really working or what?
So many spiritual attacks
Here, there and everywhere

People getting sick
Us getting lost in traffic
5 hours around KL roads
Is seriously no joke...

Went to a friend's blog
And Hillsongs "With Everything" was playing
The intensity that just filled my room that instant!
The presence of God and the conviction in heart

Knowing that yesterday I went to Melaka
To have fun and to bond with friends
Today, I'm going back there
To bond with the team and mostly with God

I'm just in awe with the way God works
Touching me through a friend's blog
Making sure I give Him my everything
Not only as a committee but in all aspects

I'm really really excited bout this CPR
Short for "Committee Planning Retreat"
It will be a great great experience
Just feeling God's sweet sweet presence

I bind the work of the evil one right now
And speak for myself and the rest of us going
That through God we can do anything
And through Him we can do all things

Despite the fatigue
Despite the lethargy
We're gonna do it well
As we do it together for God

God,
We're totally ready
So would you just start moving in everyone of us even right now
Saturate us with your love
Soak us in Your presence
Fill us with the Holy Spirit
Make us one as a team
And especially one with You

CPR, HERE WE COME!!!!

God is truly watching over me

Sometimes we feel so low we don't know what to do
How did things come to this
"Am I that mean" we think
I should have better foreseen

We enter this vicious merciless cycle
Where there's no clear end
Where the beginning starts
Or where it ends
Where the good begins
Or where the bad ends


Its so hard to comprehend
How things can go out of hand

The things said and done
The words we cant take back
The hurt inflicted
Is more than just red blood

It pierces through your heart
And you don't know what to do, say or think
But to do just the easiest
And let the river flow

Miscommunications and misconceptions
Hindering the form of good relationships

Its just so hard sometimes
Maybe I have to improve on my part
To be a better friend
So that no one's apart

To remember everyone
That God has placed around me
To treasure them
And handle with care

But what is done is done
And what is said is said
It is just so hard!

My true friend, the One above
Never dissapoints
He gave me Psalms 116
Pointing out verse 6
"The Lord protects the simplehearted,
when I was in great need, He saved me."

He look pass my failures
Pass my insecurities
Pass the mistakes I've made
Pass the wall I've put up
Pass the external
And looks into my heart

He's always been there for me
I can truly see Him
And on those days when I can't
I see Him through my friends and loved ones

They tell me that people make mistakes
And it is ok
That we're really living for God
And not for the sake of men

I'm feeling better now
Glad that I have this blog to escape
And God to be my guide
Friends who accept me for who I am
And a mom who gives great godly advice

What more can I say?
God is truly watching over me
Keeping His eyes on me
Never letting things get to far
Protecting me
Caring for me

As He watches over me
I'll watch over the things He has placed before me.

Curiosity...

If only curiosity of creation leads to curiosity of the Creator...

Wisdom from books...

You can never have enough wisdom from just reading books
Even if you read all the books in the world
You will never be able to fathom God
And that's just the beauty of it.

2010 - 2011



It is already 2 days into the new year
And its crazy how time flies
Sometimes I really do wish I can stop time.
Just freeze it for a moment.
Relive all my memories.
The pleasant and not so pleasant ones
And just take a step back and gaze in awe of how God has crafted my life

As I reflect upon last year
I really hope I haven't fallen short of His glory
His magnificent plan for my life
Did I do everything that was planned out for me by Him?
Did I say the right words at the right time?
Did I slack in anything that may have pushed me off the path of righteousness?
Even if it is just a little?
Did I give my best in everything I do?
All my past glories- the trophies, medals and titles, did I give God the glory?
Did I think to myself "WWJD" before I made any small or big decisions?

Most importantly:
Did I spend enough time with my dear Heavenly Father?
To just sit in His awe-inspiring presence and gaze at His beauty

There are so many things I'm grateful to God for,
The prayer group. CF. TT Night.
My room. My bed. My guitar.
My laptop. My new phone. My wombat.

Me precious wombat!
(which was stolen/went over to Andrea's to stay the night)

My family. My phone line. My internet connection.
My friends. My love. My life.
My Dad. My King. My Companion.

The friends I love!
(There's more than this)

And the list can go on and on.....

Like seriously...

I can go on and on...

Until my heart is content...

As I list out every single deed God has blessed me with...

But time and space here is limited..

So I would stop.

But seriously, there's so much more.



Sometimes I feel like all these is surreal.
These blessings from God
What did I do to deserve all these?

Its like I'm from the inside looking out
Or rather on the outside looking in
......

How this girl has been so loved and cared for by the One who loves her
Surrounded by people that accepts her for who she is
Protected and comforted
.......

I just stand amaze at what God has done for me thus far.
I can honestly say that 2010 has been one of the best years of my life.
A mark in my history.
A year I will never forget.

I was drawn closer to God.
Learnt to be independent.
Met many wonderful people.

I'm truly content and love every bit of my life right now.

I hope that 2011 will be even better.
(hard to comprehend though, cos whatever happened in 2010 is way beyond comprehension.)

But for now, I'm grateful for God has blessed me with such as these... =D
