2 months without updates....
I know busy will not be a valid excuse to leave this blog dying for almost 2 months...
My apologies to all who check my blog once awhile and find it not updated! Sorry...
I guess apart from being busy on the outside.. (rushing project, clearing assignment, meeting people, etc..) One main reason is I began to take more time out to do self-reflection as well as talking to God, i.e. 'blogging' in my real spiritual journal book... which is always a good practice to record down the experiences with God, be it up or down time...
I dare not say I have grown a lot over this short 2 months, but I really thank God for all the new insights & changes that He is doing within me. (Yes, I can feel the difference... and see the fruits...)
Coming to last 3 weeks of the semester, many deadlines & stuff are going to clash down like dunno what... But I want to go through all these together with God! Cos He is our ultimate refuge & strength, the only Hope that we have! Thank God once again... =)
Now this is what the LORD Almighty says: "Give careful thought to your ways. You have planted much, but have harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it." [Haggai 1:5-6]
Something that I have been meditating recently from an audio sermon:
God loves you the way you are. But He loves you SO MUCH that He doesn't want to leave you just like this! He wants to make you even better, IF... only you are willing to cooperate & allow Him to do so.
I want to experience more & more breakthroughs in my life, no doubt it will mean a lot of challenges & discomfort ahead, but I also tasted the goodness of God as a result of that & it just makes me yearn for more! To "take Christ's yoke" and partner with Him is such a exciting journey, and indeed a life-transforming one! Praise the Lord...
God, help me to persevere... With your Spirit, I know I can... Amen! =)

New Post... (Finally..)
Ok... Finally managed to force myself down in front of my computer to post a blog entry... Realising my blog seems to be dying soon... Now that it has been quite some time from my last post, I also not sure what to share up here...
Perhaps listing down some of my thanksgiving points to God for the things that happened recently...
1. Thank God for His healing- Been coughing and ill since 3 weeks ago... Thank God for the fast recovery and rest after the ActsCalibre camp, that I regain my voice and end my non-stop coughing syndrome... (which makes me just wanna sing P&W and KTV again! LOL)
2. Thank God for His providence- Been starting to work at Mind Cafe, it has been a good experience so far, with the friendly crew and fun-loving customers... Special thanks to Minghua & Alvin for their guidance during my 1st day of work... Promised God that I'll really give my best in the job to be a testimony for Him!
3. Thank God for His promise- Came in as a stunning news when I got the sms from my brother that my father received Christ after attending his church's Sunday service! It was an long-awaited prayer answered! Indeed God is faithful and nothing is impossible for Him... Amen? =)
4. Thank God for His presence- Specifically for the GenACTS events all these while, can really see how God has helped the committee in planning and executing the events... It is great to see how the freshmen have enjoyed the experiences and the new friendships we build over them. God work miraculously in our midst!
5. Thank God for His encouragement & challenge- Recently have been trying to get my head down to receive direction from God, especially with all the upcoming responsibilities and things I need to take up to lead my group... Thank God for His Word and people around that encourage me... Thank God for my shepherd and leaders... I wanna respond positively to the challenges, be it new roles or deeper commitment in ministry... (
More of Him, less of me...)
Currently, i am reading on a interesting book i bought from MPH a month ago...

After reading the 1st 2 chapters, i began to reflect upon those times which I sense God speaking to me... And I realised that I am very sensitive to it through media... specifically like movies... I can always manage to receive a rayma moment from a movie/tv that speak to me, no matter that's the main theme of the movie or not... And i enjoyed them, not just because the movie is enjoyable, but I know that's a special way that God uses to speak to me... =)
Below are 3 movies i rent to watch last week... I watched all back-to-back, with only a few hours sleep in between the last 2... Not often can you have the luxury to have movie marathon, so must treasure it b4 sch reopen soon...
Dan in Real Life: I love the show... It was one i missed in cinema... Can really feel for the main character Dan in the story and the internal struggles he is feeling.. (trying to imagine something similar happening to me, i won't know how to deal with it either...) A good recommendation for those who like family-themed show, with a unusual romance theme...
Jesus Camp: This is often a documentary film I wanted to catch in PictureHouse previously... Always seeking documentaries like this that talks about Christians' belief... It is inspiring of course, no doubt about it... For non-Christians, this is also a good one to understand more on Christianity...
Be Kind Rewind: Another show i missed in cinema, 2 attracting factors for me to go for it, Jack Black and spoofing of movies! This film really reminds me how fun it is to make your own movies, even with simple technology and 'props'... haha... (oh... i miss my N70 phone again...) A bonus of unexpected heart-warming ending... another plus point for the movie...
Oh ya, and I have to declare my new favourite animation film to date is
Kungfu Panda!!! This film is
beyond awesome... The animation is great, but it won't be that enjoyable and fascinating if the script is just average... I simply
love the script, yet another inspiring movie for me to wanna make movies like this in future... Well done Dreamworks! ( I have watched it twice in cinema btw... Haha) Waiting for its DVD liao... =p

Sorry for no updates...
Been rather busy & 'slack' since after exams... Thus didn't blog about anything so far...
('cos when u busy u got no time to blog, when u slack u won't purposely find time to blog...)Paiseh for those who still visit here once awhile to check for new entries... =p
I shall post some entries soon to update what has happened for past 1 month... (But no promise, cos I am more motivated to blog when i have photos to show... But nowadays i seldom take event photos from my phone, thus it may only be some reflections or thoughts record ba...)
Meanwhile, can't promise I will update often... so just stay tuned...
Expect more happening weeks ahead!

Sorry for no updates again...
Yes, sorry... I have neglected my blog for awhile... Apologise for that...
Again, need to clarify that
no entries on my blog doesn't mean nothing is happening in my life...In fact, it's always the
opposite! "No entries on my blog = Many things happening in my life"!But one thing for sure that cause me to feel less motivated to blog is after I started using my Nokia 5610 Express Music... 'Cos taking photos & videos are not longer as fast and convenient as my N70...
Bottom line: I miss my N70... =(
So, no photos taken = less visual stuff to record...
Wanting to start the habit of more intensive reading, Christian books in particular... Hopefully can start a goal of
reading at least a new book once a month... I already read 2 books since CNY... felt that reading is one of the few ways which I can really learn God's truth and gain wisdom out of them...
