NS stole my bf (best friend)

Yesterday, my mum, bro and I took neo-prints for the first time (we drew our dad in, cause he's overseas. HAHA )
Yesterday, I bought my brother a dog tag that says "Lemuel Teo // Ephesians 6:11-17"
Yesterday, I couldn't imagine that my bro's becoming a soldier in a few hours time.

Today, kor enlisted into the army.
Today, I heard the loudest "YES SIR!" I've ever heard in my life.
Today, I've seen the how united a group of people can be, though they've only met for a few hours.
Today, I saw my brother become a MAN, without crying! (:

Tomorrow, I'm gonna miss YOU so much, I can kill myself.
Tomorrow, I won't have anyone to go home with after church.
Tomorrow, I shall keep praying for you. For strength, willpower and the power to STAND (:

Love you many many best friend! :D
Hugs and kisses.

I've changed...woww.


I'm sorry if you find such personality tests a waste of time, but I like it a lot! Haha. So yeah (:


"Idealists are the most likely of all types to resonate with the Boomer phrase, "Finding Your Passion." Idealists strive to find Meaning and Unique Identity in their lives. "


In studying environment, "Healers (INFP) are the most sensitive to the underlying emotional current. If that current is negative and they can't fix it, they will find a way to withdraw. "


Haha, read here to know me better, though I don't agree with everything la. HA.

Hmm.

Why is it that people analyse (& sometimes criticise) each other's behaviours?
Why do people talk about each other behind the subject's back?
Why is it that it feels that people's eyes are like CCTVs, watching and questioning every movement or action?

I guess that's life.
& it's inevitable. Or not.

Deal with it!

It's here.

It's 2010, and it's the fourth day already.
Time flies, it somehow has wings that can fly at a speed of 1000000000kpm, or even faster.

Well, whatever it is. We have all entered 2010, it may be a year we've been waiting for, or a year that we're dreading. But be it this or that, it's not your choice.

Your choice is whether this year is going to be a good or bad one.
Your choice is if you wanna deal with your fears and doubts in life.
Your choice is to do something to see your dream come to pass.
Your choice is to worship God the way you know you should.
Your choice is to make Jesus, the Lord over everything.
Your choice is to study hard enough, so that you won't regret.
Your choice is to make a choice to choose what you want.

Your choice is everything.
But what is everything to you?

I can't say that this is the best period of my life cause I'm questioning, not doubting, just questioning.
Questioning about the point in stuff, and for some I already know the answer, but I still question.

What is the point of studying?
What is the point of doing well?
What is the point of dancing?
What is the point of serving in church?
What is the point of committing myself to so many things?
What is the point of making friends?
What is the point of praying?
What is the point of dreaming?
What is the point of living?

& the answer to everything is, God.


So farewell 2009, and greetings 2010.
God, make this year a fruitful one, please.

Missions, CPs Missions, Christmas and Camp!

It's really quite late now, but I thought I should just leave a little note to keep this a little more alive. (:

I just came back from my mission trip in Malacca, which was from 16-21dec.
It was a really good trip for me, though I feel that we could have done more.
But overall, I know God grew each and every one of us in the team in our personal spiritual life and as a team.

Dear mission team,
it's really amazing to see how two cells came together as one team, putting aside our differences and really putting in the effort to mingle and build our friendships. I really hope that it won't end here, be it our friendship or our growth in our King.
I really enjoyed the time I spent with the 13 of you, and I miss you guys quite a bit actually! Haha. All of you made this trip a much enjoyable and fun one, and not forgetting the ever-oh-so-cute kids we played with (: Heh.
Thank you Charmaine, Shawn, Shiyun, Christabel, Isabel, Joelle, Abel, Clarissa, Cavell, Courtney, Royston, Berek, and Renee so so much!

Go and change the world!

Well, other then missions,
I'm really really looking forward to ELEVATE (megalife & highlife) CAMP!!!!
&&& CHRISTMAS!!!!

I (HEART) CHRISTMAS WITH ALL MY HEART!
Hahah. I love the fellowship with the people, the carols, the gatherings, the presents :P (hehe!), & for this year, the Advanced Party for Camp! Haaaa.

But yeah, I'm really looking forward to a wonderful christmas! :D

Ps: Should I go back to ballet in 2010? S:

When I was Young



It's been long since I had a free wednesday.

Every wednesday, my schedule goes something like this:
800: Wake up for school
1000 - 1500: School
1500 - 1830/1900: CCA
2030 - 2230: Dance
It leaves me no space to slow down every Wednesday.
But today is different, today I do not have CCA nor dance! And I ended school at 2PM!

Honestly, I was extremely happy when I actually realised thi
s last night. I made plans to reach home by 4pm, go to the park, maybe cycle/run and spend some time journalling and praying (haven't really don
e that in quite awhile, miss it).

But plans changed when my brother called me to meet him since he was at whitesands. Here's the thing, although in the end, I didn't do what I planned to do. Walking around, shopping and spending that hour or so with him meant a lot. It's not very often that we get to walk around and spend time with one another with your As, and my busy schedule. So every time I spend with you means a lot. (:
Ps (to you kor)// Please don't go army )))': & don't get attached (if not i can't spend time with you ): boo)

But anyway, the reason why I'm blogging is this, I was on th
e bus going home and I was just looking at this little boy who was sitting down, dangling his cute croc-ed feet in the air, cause he can't reach the floor. He was super cute! (I want a baby brother )))): Bam. )

& I got reminded of how I was when I was a kid. (:

When I was young,

  • I hated it that my feet could never touch the floor when I sit down, but now all I wanna do be that small kid again and let my feet dangle there freely.
  • I would stand in front of a standing fan, and shout gibberish into it, just to hear my robot voice.
  • I would "fight" with my brother to get piggy-backed by my dad. :P
    A little dark, but that's my dad carrying my bro and i :D
  • I used to stare at people's bottoms when my family goes to Chinatown during CNY, just cause I was too short
  • I would steal the cane my mom always used on me, and attempt to hide or throw it away
  • I loved to wear my mom's high heels and walk around in them
  • I kissed and hugged my parents goodnight every single night (:
  • I would ALWAYS attempt to sit on the lift's handle whenever I'm in one without strangers around
CNY 2002, in my dad's office's lift.
  • I had friends, "bluff-friends", and "enemies", especially in primary school
  • I loved singing in the car, coming up with impromptu lyrics like "the sky is so blue.."
  • my brother and i would drag our matresses and pillows & bolsters over to our parent's room to sleep with them :P
  • every single birthday was spent with my family (we still do that! :D ) and it means so much to me!
my tenth birthday (:

Well, the thing is, we all have good memories of our past, but time does not let us live back in those care-free, non-busy, fun-filled days. Time only allows us to move forward in life, and allow such memories of the past to build on to our future.
Such memories, that may seem to fade away,
such memories that I treasure quite deeply.

What's your heart beating for?

Struggles make my life me, cause I know they make me stronger.

That’s why I never give up, that’s why I’m not afraid to fail.

Today I face another obstacle, and so my heart starts beating. Again.

-Khun

Sorry, this is just a random post, something that I just felt like putting up for my own satisfaction of putting this quote up. Ha!
