So I really need a partner for my Chinese oral exam. It’s making me really freaked out and I nearly died during my 2 hours of Chinese class today cause that was all I thought about.

I mean I know that ultimately if I really don’t have a partner, I won’t die because the subject coordinator will probably find me one- you know one of those friendless people too. Yes, Chinese tut is my friendless tut.

But there’s no way I’m going to settle for that.

I’m praying for a partner- a good one (not too good, cause they would mean the prcs and I honestly don’t understand a single thing they say). My oral exam is a debate, so yes, a good partner is important. We need to meet up and discuss. So no slackers!

And I know my God will see me through this. I know this might seem small and trivial to most people. But honestly, when you’re stuck in this, it’s not. My God going to find me a partner! And not just any partner, but a good one!

I’m not working for summer school this year and so I’ll be going home a lot earlier than expected! So that’s good news I suppose.

I’ve been studying for so long. My brain’s fried. Seriously.

I really need God.

I know He will pull through anything for me.

And inside, a woman of strength will rise up.

I did accounting just now. And man, depreciation is terrible!! Ahhhh. I’ve never liked it since I started studying accounting in like year 1. Save meee!

Law now. Not any better. In fact, worse off!!

But yes, I’m going back to it now.

Toodles world!

It’s week 12.

And it’s definitely crunch time.

Crunch crunch crunch.

And it’s not the time to get distracted.

Ooo facebook!

Toodles world!

Tattoo your name across my heart

Sunnies in Cotton On!

This is a nice photo. I like it. Although I must say the sunnies are weird on me and they are so darn huge!

Flare tonight was good! Or should I say last night. Anyhow, I really like the contemporary pieces- as always, nothing new there. That’s like my favourite genre of dance anyway.

So after flare, Debs, Brenda, Grace, Joanna, Wynn, Diane and I went to Cotton On along Lygon and we did all sorts of rubbish there. Then we went to Notturno for supper! I think that’s how it’s spelt.

I want a pair of sunnies! But I can’t because I don’t wear contacts. And don’t ask me why I don’t wear them.

I’m currently sitting in front of my laptop going crazy about my internet issue. But worst of all, my THICK accounting textbook is on my lap right now and it has caused my left foot to go all numb on me. Oh wells. The pains accounting give you- metaphorically and literally. Haha.

I’ve done a huge part of Task 1 on my tut and I left some bits blank. I’m going to do Task 2 now- and yes, it is the last as well. I hope the textbook will help me.

God, give me strength. I need to pull through till 26th Nov.

Toodles world!

You are the rock on which I stand

This bridge of this song has been stuck in my head since I got up, which is not too long ago, but long enough. Actually, quite long, really.

You are my God
The Great I am
And You are the rock on which I stand
And You reign
You reign
And You reign
You reign

I guess it’s that time of the semester again. And yes, everyone knows what I mean. It isn’t that hard to know what I’m talking about.

And whenever that time comes, I can’t help but to think more about home. Not really my family and dog and that kinda thing. But more of the comforts of home. Laundry done and folded. Food on the table et cetera.

No, I’m not getting all homesick and dramatic. So don’t worry.

But I guess this song is just reassuring me that my God is bigger than anything. Exams are no big deal to Him. And He lives in me. So exams shouldn’t be a big deal to me either!

I know that faith without actions are dead. So really, all I need to do is study hard, and throw everything to Him. He will provide the right answers during my exams. He will drop me exam hints while I’m studying.

And I’m so convinced of it because I know He is real.

No matter how many times people just to tell me He isn’t real, based on all those documentaries on like discovery or whatever, I know He is real because I have felt His presence before. And no matter what others say and what facts you throw out at me and I do sway at times, those encounters were real and I can’t just put them behind me, disregarding them and think they were a figment of my imagination, simply because they aren’t.

On a random note, my job interview results should be out tomorrow and I’m getting my Generating the Wealth of Nations essay back next Monday during tut. Pray for me! I really want the job and I’m praying for an H1 for my essay!

Anyway, and I guess the question of “Are you staying or leaving” have been asked a lot more this semester and I won’t expect it to decrease next year. And yes, the answer is still the same- I don’t know.

Oh well, I’ll be a final year student next year and I guess it’s time to attend more career fairs and stuff. There’s one next year in March. I know, it is far from now and all that kinda thing. But people who know me know that I always plan ahead. More often that not, God intervenes and He somehow weaves in an even bigger plan- which is really cool.

So yes, I throw my life unto all that You are.

Toodles world!

p.s. I really want my hair to grow 6 inches now. According to some random internet source, that takes a year to grow. Sigh. I don’t know why, but I want really long hair now! And I mean now now now!!

I’m infected by the sound

I’m not being arrogant or anything.

I just finished dinner and man, do I  make the best wantons in Victoria.

They test like the ones my mom makes. Okay, her’s are better. But you get the point!

Now I’m stuffed full! I’m going to wash up. Stone for a bit and watch Simpsons. Then I’ll study and watch Aussie Ladette to Lady.

Then I’ll study again till some ungodly hour. Maybe not, I think I want to sleep earlier tonight. According to my study exam timetable, I don’t have that much to get through tonight. But I always do have heaps to go through during the weekend. Bahh.

I took a personal night off last night. Awesome-ness!

And I found this awesome food blog. And I don’t usually like food blogs. In fact, I don’t know of one that I like. So that’s saying something!

I’m starting to feel sleepy. Not good! Ahhh.

I’m going to stone, then wash up.

Toodles world!

I found this online and I just had to put it here!

That’s supposedly a Chinese’s food hierarchy. Haha.

I’m your biggest fan

I think I just made like 60 wontons or something. I’ve froze them and I can’t wait to eat them soon!

I’m probably gonna make more this weekend. They are easy to make and store and fast when you cook them! Oh and above all, yummylicious!! It’s also quite therapeutic I must say, I mean when you wrap them of course.

Oh I’m so annoyed with my internet. I’ve apparently used 5.4GB in the last 20days. Everyone who knows Shiyou knows that that is impossible. And no, no one else has been using mine. I changed my password and all that crap already. I can barely use 2GB in like a month!!!

So being the Singaporean that I am, I obviously, complained to cs.

I hope they get back to me soon!! I don’t have much left for the next 10+days! Poo. And everyone knows that although I don’t use a lot of internet, I do use it everyday to do random things.

I realised that when people I usually speak to on msn don’t initiate conversations with me, I won’t talk to them. When I said talk, I meant like leisure chatting. Cause there are just some people who I talk to a heap more on msn and not in real life or phone or text.

I don’t know. It’s just not very me to initiate things at times. I know, it’s not a trait to be proud of. It might be the same reason as to why I don’t add people on facebook or something. Stupid, yes I know.

Thank God he initiated to reconcile his relationship with mankind. If he didn’t initiate to send Jesus to earth to die on the cross for our sins, so that He could have relationship with us, I don’t think I would have done anything either. Hypothetically, I’m saying if I could have done something about it. But we all know we can’t cause salvation is not earned, but given through His grace.

Oh have I mentioned? It’s going to be so ridiculously hot tomorrow! Rarrr.

I think I’m going to grab some yogurt and get started on some work soon. But soon is subjective. So oh well!

Toodles world!

Just two more weeks of school, one month of exams and my hols will be here.

Before I know it, I’ll be a third year student!

Faint with me now. Haha.

So now it’s back to studying.

Toodles world!

I’m a sucker for simplicity

Hello world!

I did so many things todayyyy! I went for my law replacement tut cause my tutor was ill on Monday. Then I went to myer to get my facial stuff. Then I headed to rose garden for lunch and I went to vic mart. Then I came home. Then I had dinner. Then I went out again for koko black. I just finished my Chinese homework. I’m going to do my readings soon.

That’s a lot of things right!

Anyway, I’ve been thinking about some things lately and I thought of penning them down here.

How should I start? Hmm.

So yes, I watched Gossip Girl last night. Season 3, episode 5 I think. And I watched Glee. Episodes 6 & 7. And what I realised is that what we say and do have consequences. Our decisions don’t only affect our own destinies, but others as well. And that includes the things we decide to say and do. Okay, fine the do part is so duh. But you get the point!!

And I guess no matter what we say or do, we always need to check our motives.

Don’t give the devil too much credit. He doesn’t deserve any credit at all and yes, we know that.

But more importantly, my real point is don’t thrust everything to God. Not trust, I meant thrust.

Yes, it might true whatever you said or did was convicted by the Spirit. But is it just that? Or there’s something else.

I have this friend back in Singapore in my church. She’s such an awesome woman of God. No matter what I do or say or whatever, she’ll always ask whether the motives were true.

Okay, so to cut the long story short, I was inspired by this post from my friend in Singapore.

“Our actions can be right but its really about the heart.

We can do spiritual acts but it might not be a spiritual act of worship because the motive behind it might be a very different one.

The act of shepherding is a very spiritual one but sometimes i wonder if the heart of shepherding is?

The motive of things really is a very important element in the things that we do. What is in the inside is not always seen but its always the most important one.

This reminds me of how one of my very good friends is a person who’s very good in evaluating motives and i always enjoy conversations with her

She’ll always ask “What’s your motive?” Think we need to ask that more in our lives.”

Shepherding is like spiritual mentoring, for those who aren’t used to that term.

I think his entry was much more better than mine. Oh wells. You get the point.

So toodles world!

I’ve got readings to do!

xoxo

blahblahblah

I’m sitting in my law lecture now. And she’s talking about the lecture we were suppose to have even before spring break. Hmm.

Anyhow, I didn’t finish my 1500 words last night. I stopped at 1000. So I hope I can write up to 1500 words tonight. I really have to! It’s due this Thursday. Oh wells.

I’m sleepy. But nope, I’m not gonna sleep now. I don’t know what I’m going to do. Okay, besides the obvious- listen to my lecturer.

So yes.

Toodles!
