" Amazing, Awesome July 15th "


I don't know if it is bcoz I wasn't been able to go out for 4 days, or is it bcoz I'm really expecting something great to happen to me today. It's like.. I can't wait Friday to come!!!!! and when Thursday nite came, I was like.... " yipeeeee!!! It's Friday tomorrow!! "

And u know what? Something really awesome happened today.

After cellgroup, Annie led the Prayer Meeting. The praises and prayers came first. Then we gathered around, have paper and pen in our hands. Annie told us that when people give us compliments, we feel good, right? and even though it's the most obvious thing, it's really nice if we still hear it. Wouldn't we want others to feel good too? Wouldn't we want to see the smile on their faces? Well, i do. And I'm going to put it into practice from now on ;)

As we get each other's names and started writing good things about everyone. I started thinking hard, thinking what can i say to her, to him. I didn't even thought what people might think of me. I still have the list, and bcoz of the time last nite, i didn't really write it completely. (I can post it here anyway)

* Nelly - I can still remember the first time I saw her. A beautiful lady for me. I see a stable and a matured woman in her.
* Tony - So much good spirit in him. So much joy and the Lord just shine over him.
* Yanne - Good looks!! (haha! Saw him 1st time last nite. he's from Greece. he looks like one of my fav actor, Hugh Jackman from X-men)
* Min Lin - She's our pianist in church and she really plays lovely music. Whenever it's my turn to do the Powerpoint on Sunday, i can feel how powerful her fingers pressed on the keys of the piano. Glorying God in her own way.
* Jennifer - My sarcastic, love-me friend! (Well, sarcastic in a cute and funny way) God gave her the gift of smooth hair and super duper nice skin. (Tony thought she had powder on her face, haha)
* Gerry - He's an ideal father to me, an adviser when I need one. Cute friendly guy who likes racing me on streets! And he's always there to lift my spirits up.
* Grace - A very loving friend to me. I'll never forget the day she gave me a kiss on my cheeks! So warmth towards people.
* Annie - This girl never fails to brighten up my day. Annie's soooooo sweet. A true lady in and out. An apple in God's eye. (Just like what Tony said) Such a lovely girl.
* K.T - His necklace looks good on him. (I like his necklace!!!)
* Daniel - I still won't forget the 1st time I saw this guy. He was playing the guitar in the service, and he wasn't smiling. But eventhough u don't see his face smiling, in his heart... he have this smile always. He is such a friendly guy!!!!! Good Spirit, Good Voice, and Good Guy. words to describe Daniel.
* Howard - Whenever I see him on Sundays. The way he prays, he give praises, the way he worships God, you'll see humility in him. Howard really has it.
* Larry - God gave him the ability to lead people, and Larry is good with it. Especially shouting suddenly at the top of his voice, and making all of us jump! Shouting to the Lord, giving Him praises, lifting the whole group's spirit more. This guy really has a good sense of humor! cool....
* Yen - I see this guy as a " future-preacher " in the name of Jesus Christ.
* Kevin - I like his cute pair of eyes. *wink*


And when they took turns to say things about me. I was in tears! When Annie started talking, then Gerry.... then..... the tears just can't stop. I was kinda' speechless and all I said was.. "Really?", "Am I?" and "Thank You". Annie said I'm so attentive to my surroundings, a girl who likes telling jokes and making people smile. Gerry said something about I can turn black'n white into something colorful. While Daniel and Larry told me that I actually have the joy that I want in my life. I was crying with joy. I'm really so blessed bcoz I have so many people who loves me for who I am. I have so many great friends in Jesus. Not only they made my day, they made my whole week!! And God really favor me to give me all of these.

See, isn't just an "Amazing, Awesome June 15th?"

There are times in life when u experience disappointments,
and there comes you would think how would you cope up with it.
And I'm coping with it right now. *gloomy gloomy*

It's like when you are expecting something, and it didn't happen. that sucks, right? (RIGHT!) And you'll really feel sad. Coz I'm feeling it right now.

I'm gonna ask God to help me with this. He's always there to help me solve things. *wink*

" Refuge "

once broken, now renewed,
the thought of you a place where i take refuge,
your seams, my scars,
the legacy of those who loved us,
our victories and defeats slowly converging,
our stories merging into one,
basking in the winter sun,
the pieces of me no longer broken,
and all of me at long last whole,
a crackle jar of ancient beauty,
the mysteries of life
no longer seeming to need answers,
and you, beloved friend,
my hand in yours,
as we both mend,
and life begins again,
a song of love and joy
that never end.

- from the book " Safe Harbour ", Danielle Steel.

" Will It Happen To Me Too? "


For people who had watched the movie " Hitch "... You maybe wondering if it does really would happen in real life. Coz I'm wondering right now. I watched it last night. This movie amazed me. I'm stuck with this movie! Feel like love really is such a wonderful thing. (I know.. I know... Get Real!! It's only a movie)

Give you a summary. It's a story about Alex Hitchens (Will Smith) is "The Date Doctor." He helps men to land dates. Sara (Eva Mendes) is a gossip columnist for a New York City tabloid. Both are very guarded around the opposite sex. Despite their natures, Alex and Sara begin a relationship. Complications ensue when Sara's latest scoop happens to be one of Alex's clients.

And here are some quotes from the movie. and it was sooooo awesome!!!

Alex Hitch Hitchens : " Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away. " (the line he said in the very beginning of the movie)

Alex Hitch Hitchens : " Any guy can sweep any girl off her feet, he just needs the right broom."

Albert : " You know what it's like getting up every morning? Feeling hopeless, feeling like the love of your life is waking up with the wrong man. But, at the same time hoping that she still finds happiness, even if it's never going to be with you." (when he told Hitch it was Allegra whom he like)

Sara : " What should we toast to? "
Alex Hitch Hitchens : " Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away." (this is the part when Sara confirmed what Hitch really do. and they were supposed to have a great dinner at his place, but all they did was throw things to each other)

Sara : " Relationships are for people who are waiting for something better to come along."

Albert : " I want to jump in front of every cab I see, because maybe then I'll stop thinking about her. " (this is the part when Albert just can't stop thinking about Allegra, when he asked Hitch for help, and Hitch turned him down)

Alex Hitch Hitchens : " Because that's what people do. They leap, and hope to God they can fly, because otherwise. you just drop like a rock, wondering the whole way down, why in the *hell* did I jump? But here I am, Sarah, falling, and the only one that makes me feel like I can fly... is you. " (i really like this one. when he tried to stop Sara in the car.)

After I watched this movie. I was like... people tend to fall in love. And it's either you get scared and take a step backward, or you get brave and take a big leap! This movie must have inspired a lot of people to fall in love. To be courageous. That there's nothing to be afraid of. (I think I'm talking to myself) But it's really really hard to just give in. To start believing again. I pray that when " he " comes, I would have the courage to grasp it with both of my hands. And won't try to let it go no more. (That is... if " he " really comes) *hoping*

***to Albert, ur really my idol! coz u have more faith than i do.

" Oh man! "


Oh man!
It's summer and I'm wearing a sweatshirt over me!! aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I'm having a fever right now. coughing like a bull, have a running nose, headache and my whole body just hurts!! and I can't go to cellgroup tomorrow. Mom says i have to rest.

But it's not boring today though... I gave testimonials to friends in Friendster.
J and Annie prayed loudly for me on the phone. For my complete healing.
Claire dropped by. bought me dinner. talk about stuffs. watched DVD with me. surf the net with me, and lastly, hear some good music with me. (right, Claire?)
I have so many friends around me, why would i feel sick and left alone? right?
I am just blessed.
