Thankful

I will be graduating this year :) Praise the Lord! Just got my results for my final semester and all is well. I thank God for His faithfulness and grace in carrying me through. Am reminded of the tears I shed and the struggles I had throughout the semester but also the assurances He gave through His word and the encouragement and love He brought through people. Thank you, God. 

After our final paper :) Real relief! SELFIE!
So right after exams ended, had about a week's break then it was East Asia Regional Conference (EARC) 2014 in Port Dickson. So much to take in but I believe it was most timely as I come to the crossroads of "What Next?" in my life. Probably one of the most asked questions as I finish my undergraduate life, which I'm not too sure how to answer either :\ It calls me that whatever I do with my life, it must always be centred upon Christ and the gospel. It's a mission to bridge the gap between God's vision and the state of reality in our world today. The theme was "Awesome God. E.P.I.C. Generation". EPIC standing for - Engaging, Passionate, Incarnational, and Christlike. What we as Christians are called to in today's society. I met people from different countries, backgrounds, tongues and cultures and as we shared our stories and lives with each other, I saw that we all live in a broken world. My country and society has its problems and so does theirs. No perfect system, no complete justice and righteousness, and that is the state our world is in. But, we all hope in God, we all trust in God, we all yearn to see His glory manifest in the places He has given to us as our homelands, our countries. And that encourages me to keep pursuing Him, to keep our eyes on God, and to be shining lights to our nations. 

My small group during the conference. Thank you each one for sharing your lives <3 td="">
I had a getaway graduation trip with Shalini, Danny and Vindy to Krabi, Thailand. And it was beautiful :) The sun, sand, and sea. Though the sea was being very very rough as it was the monsoon season. We still had fun and enjoyed it :) I want to go back. Much happened (some good and some bad) and we made do the best we could with what we had. What happens in Krabi, stays in Krabi :P

Beauty :)
Travel companions and some of the best people I've had as course mates in the past four years :)
Am now in Tronoh with the parents. Time to unwind and prepare for what's next. I'll tell you as soon as I know what that is. :) Have a good day!

here, there and in between

The inconsistent blogger is back! :) *cheers, woots, confetti flying* :P just for fun.

It's been a while and lots has happened.

One, I'm almost at the end of my teaching practice and it has been a day by day journey of grace. I learned so much about the teaching profession and realize I have so much more to learn. It's been great having more experienced teachers who have gone before who encouraged me here and there along the way. Ernest's mom was one of them, from her once in a while calls and questions of "Has your supervisor come to assess you yet?" to sharing her own stories of teaching. 

Sports Day! Meet Vindy :)
Vindy my teaching buddy has also been such a great friend throughout, laughing our way back through the traffic jams as we recall the funny encounters and situations of the day. 

Joanne who is also doing her internship has also been a source of comfort and encouragement, I think her working conditions were way harsher than mine with mad working hours and "interesting" characters to deal with on a day to day basis. But that sort of perseverance really inspires and encourages me :) Just do it.

Apart from that, Ernest and I have reached our one year :) Hee. And at the moment, we're entering into different phases in life. He's now a graduate, moving out from the university student phase (so proud of him)! And I'm entering my final year (whereby I'll be spending half of it in Korea). 

We've been seeing a little more of each other lately since we're relatively more free compared to when we were both busy with our semesters. And I've been enjoying every bit of our catch ups and time together as well as time with our other friends :) Always learning that it's not just you-me-and-the-whole-world-disappears, but we want a relationship that is a blessing to others around us. Not one that makes people squirm uncomfortably when in our company :3 Been checking things off our check list too. 

But then, pretty soon it'll be four months apart while I'm in Korea. *DEEP BREATH* Okay. We'll grow through it and we commit it all to God. 

:)

So, it's now the Raya holidays. I have one more week of teaching practice to go, another week of settling everything I need to settle, and then off it is to Korea. Counting down the days: 14 days till I leave. I'm excited, nervous, scared, blur, anticipating, hopeful, and so much more. I pray I'll go there and learn and experience much. I pray that despite being in a whole new environment I'd be able to be salt and light to the people around me, to bring Christ through my life. Lord, use me. 

Lately, I've been feeling a little lost. I think it's the holiday effect mixed with a dose of PMS. Holiday effect being I just got two weeks off school for the Raya break and I've been thoroughly enjoying myself which has also caused me to sidetrack a lot of my work and even my quiet time with God :( It is really a struggle for me when routine is taken out of my life. Well, holidays are ending pretty soon and I think that's been nagging at my conscience. But I think the feeling of being a bit neither here nor there is attributed to me actually being neither here nor there. Sad to say, I've just been living for me lately. 

We're doing this forty day fast and prayer for Malaysia and the title is "Let Your Kingdom Come" (For those interested, you can find out more and download the prayer booklet here: http://www.necf.org.my/index.cfm?&menuid=183&parentid=144) And it reminds me over and over again, to build up God's kingdom and not my own and to have eternity written on our hearts. I get caught up easily in things of the moment and I like easily the things I have now. So much so that I put the things of God aside so that I can do my own things :( But when we look at things, ten, twenty, fifty, a hundred years from now, it's all going to pass. It's all temporary. So, whose kingdom am I investing in?

But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness, 
and all these things will be given to you as well. 
Matthew 6:33

What a promise, what a word. But God's word is truth and defies every logical explanation and argument of the world. And so, I trust and ask that God grant me His grace to yield to and obey His word. 

Lord, let Your Kingdom come. 
In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

grace upon grace

i survived week fourteen! praise the Lord and all glory to God :)

my last assignment was handed up by 5pm on friday :) it was quite a mad week with all the deadlines and procrastinated work coming all at once. self-inflicted stress though, i should have started on them assignments earlier :\ i always say that. *sigh*

i really thank God for the encouragement, care and love He brought through the various people in my life. couldn't have done it without the help and support from them. Deborah for praying with me daily, Lydia for super fast internet (hehe) and her love to us, Joyce for her smses, Ernest for always being there, Shalini who loved me throughout our tough times with our coursework, Elaine for praying, Timothy for the small gestures that showed his concern, and many more others :) 

i really felt so blessed throughout the week and to reach the end alive, i am thankful. my body gave in to the lack of rest pretty soon after that and i am just thankful not before i finished week fourteen. came down with quite a bad case of food poisoning :( which isn't good because of all the christmas dinners we've been having :|

but this year, i am really thankful for the people in my life. i think that was my lesson most of the time this year. of how i've taken a lot of my relationships for granted, how i could be a better friend, sister, daughter to others, how i need to be more sensitive and loving to people. i am just struck, amazed and humbled by the grace and second chances i've been shown and given cause i really really don't deserve it. 

christmas this year has been meaningful. i'm not caught up with doing a lot. wasn't involved in any performances or caroling in church, wasn't doing decorations or helping out with christmas parties, didn't have the time to shop and wrap gifts for everyone either. in short, it wasn't christmas like the usual years but it felt warm as i spent time with loved ones. didn't spend it with many many many people, just a handful of people who i loved and who loved me. and that made my christmas meaningful and warm. 

and over and over, i am reminded of the true meaning of christmas. Jesus Christ coming to save a world from sin. He didn't have to, but He did because He loved each person. He loved us and so He came down to be with us. Immanuel - God with us. we never deserved it, but He still chose to love. that grace and love humbles me, i want to have such a love towards others because i've experienced it in my life.

so much ramblings from me. i'll try to put up more pictures soon but anyway, 
blessed christmas!

The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, 
and they will call him Immanuel (which means "God with us").
Matthew 1:23

carry on

i had one of the best semester breaks last week, one of the best weeks of my life :)

it's been over two months since i last saw Ernest in person and so this one week together was something i really looked forward to. there were quite a number of change of plans, but i guess things still turned out good :)

we did a lot of travelling together :) and i loved it! but poor guy was the driver while i sat comfortably in the passenger seat :\ it was a lot of long talks during those long drives. singing along with the radio, sometimes falling asleep.

this song "Carry On" by F.U.N. was played about fifteen or more times during our trip. jadilah our trip's theme song.


i got to spend some time with his family in his hometown, Tanjung Malim. met his friends here and there. went for my first Deepavali open houses :) went back to the refugee school with Ernest. which brought back a lot of memories for me :) and reminded me what a great man i am blessed with :) met Joshua Johnson who says he was the one who matched us up way back in SWEEP. :| haha.

he brought me to tour his hometown and then brought me back to his campus in Nibong Tebal, Penang. met more of his uni friends who i find to be very funny and who made me feel at home :) we went night running. had talks on the sidewalk. i fell into a hole in the ground right in front of Ernest :\ must have been a little over-excitement :P

we went to Penang and explored a bit. ditched our hiking plans and decided to enjoy the beach at a hotel. it was so serene, so perfect. i always loved the sea. :) met more friends for lunch and changed plans again and decided to head back to campus. dinner again that night with his friends. two tomyam places were closed, so we settled for steamboat. assignments at night :| and was so tired we decided to do face masks in the car at 2 am :|

the next day was the day before our run. went over to Penang island again and met up with Phang Carmen. went for dinner with more of his friends who were also going for the marathon, at Kapitan which has awesome tandoori chicken with briyani rice. and headed over to Isaac's place for the night. got ready at about 1 am for the run. this was actually the reason for the trip, our half marathon on the Penang bridge.

Penang bridge half-marathon (21km), we finished in about 3 hours 11 minutes, okaylahh. considering our training was like... it was quite an experience, i must say. Ernest and i ran together most of the way, until the last kilometer.

tadaa :) finisher!

:)
next run, we'll finish it together kay :) 
there's a next run? 

after the run, got back to Isaac's place all aching and sticky and smelly. took our baths and everyone konked out for a few hours. watched Pitch Perfect and after that we just went here and there, till it was time for me to go back home. kinda decided on that that night. was actually really heavy hearted to leave though :( 

i guess, it's the distance and how much i miss him. and also that coming back meant a crazy workload (which was brought upon myself with my "amazing" time management.) but no regrets on the break. it was worth it :) 

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on
- Carry On, F.U.N.

like in a reaaaallyyy long marathon or journey, i guess life's like that. there'll be the really tiring and low times, where our whole body just wants to give up. we may take a rest, but we don't stop. we carry on with perseverance and hope in God. now, go carry on. and may God be with you! :)

coffee moments

so, i've developed a thing since Camp Camerons to go for coffee on my Sabbath day (usually Sundays), on my own, with my bible and journal, and go on a date with God :) it's been pretty insightful, to look back on the week and chit chat with God about the things that happened, what made me happy, what broke my heart, what distracted me, what was my focus, what i learned, finding out what He thinks, or what He wants me to change and to do, seeking His perspective and His will, etc. i come back a lot more refreshed and orientated for the coming days.

this morning, i looked back on my past three months of break. and it's crazy how time has just flies by. this Monday, i start my first semester of my third year :| a new phase in university, new responsibilities, new challenges, new lives, new relationships, etc. but i look back and i do thank God very much for the old and for the things that have been happening.

this holidays began with PKVUM's CPR in Joanne's house in Melaka with the whole committee (Timothy, Joanne, Noah, Joyce, Abbie, Sarah, Philemon, Deborah, Daniel Hiew, Daniel Wong, Tien Mie) and our FES staff, Swee Kit and David.

we makan makan makan, went to jongker's street, ribut otak (brainstormed) for themes and objectives and for the coming semester ahead, we worshiped, prayed, shared and played :) it was a good time of getting to know each other, bonding and learning to work together as a team, as a family.


then Camp Camerons 2012 - Give me life in Thy ways.


lots of unforgettable moments with the people at this camp. three weeks of being at this "bus stop" where we did a stop and check of our lives. learned a lot about myself (the good and the bad) but even more than that once again experiencing the unconditional love and abounding grace of God.


a start of something new with a very special someone by the name of Ernest Lee.

meet Ernest :) 
he couldn't resist that single promo :P hahahaha (just kiddingg..)

an adventure over at Deborah's beautiful land below the wind, Sabah. with Lydia and Brandon. lovely times with lovely people. :)




a two days escapade and tell all journey with Sue Ann to Melaka. went down to visit Sue Ann's grandma who is the cutest and funniest grandma i've met :) had tons of melaka goodness - chicken rice ball under the tree, cendol, ice cream, etc. am going to miss this girl as she begins her journey as an undergraduate in USM, Penang. take care over there, dear.


weddings and weddings :) Daniel & Nie Nie and Reuben & Lisa. ngaaawwwww :)

daniel and nie nie :) 

reuben and lisa :)

also, have been meeting up with different groups of friends and spending more time with my family. and it's made me more appreciative of the people i have in my life.

i learned many things about myself these holidays. a lot of character flaws, ugly sides, and so on. things i need to work on, change, throw out, refine. all under God's grace and mercy. being transformed by the work of the Holy Spirit as i come before Him in surrender. having Ernest in my life has also taught me a lot about trust and truth, taught me more about loving one another.

i am so humbled by the grace and love shown to me by others. by the ones who have been hurt by me over the years, but who choose to forgive and still love me. i know i've lost some people along the way, and that i do regret :( i am grateful for those who give me the plain truth, even though it hurts and stings, but like bitter medicine, it's for the better. a lot of times i don't know how to go on with the relationship after that, but i guess character changing and refining isn't usually a quick instant thing but a process of making a conscious effort to change. i ask God to fill me with His love and grace that i may be able to love and care for others like how He does.

so, this has been the holiday journey and as i prepare myself for another semester ahead, i am excited to journey with God in this, knowing that He is the author and the perfecter of my faith, of the story of my life :)

and to you out there, to my loved ones, thank you for being a part of my life, for being a part of this journey. i want to thank you and appreciate the marks and impressions you have left in my life, for making me who i am today. although very imperfect still, i am still in the process of sanctification and refining. i love you, very much.

have a blessed weekend! :)

to sabah and back

have not been in the blogging mode for quite a while now. i guess because blogging is my stress reliever, my outlet and currently, life has been quite chilled and relaxed for me.

just got back from Sabah, wonderful time spent there with Lydia and Deborah and Deborah's family :) and Brandon of course. It was my second time to the beautiful land of Sabah and a very different trip from my first one. my first trip to Sabah was to climb Mount Kinabalu and was pretty tourist-ish because the people i went with were all West Malaysians and we had a tour guide and we didn't mind paying hundreds for activities like white water rafting and so on. tourist mentality haha. we had to walk around and were pretty much confined to the city. it was more of discovering things on our own.

this time around, Debs brought us around and we got to try the local's best :) everything from food to the hanging bridges, a private tour of the UMS campus and so on :) we saved a lot too! on lodging and all. and because we had a car, we went from one end to the other. i really enjoyed the company and warmth of Deb's family (which is really huge and tight knitted) throughout the trip and am missing the kids who are super duper adorable :) i was really encouraged by their church and how God was moving in their midst and in their lives, the testimonies Aunty Mary shared and hearing of how God touches and changes lives was uplifting.

other things we did were visiting the Lok Kawi Wildlife Park, fed the crocodiles at the Crocodile Farm in Tuaran, snorkelled at Pulau Mamutik, chased the sunset to Tanjung Aru, musical fountains and a lot of good food every day :)

however, Lydia, Debs and i had a bit of food poisoning towards the end of the trip. Lydia had it the worst and very unfortunately on the day we went to Pulau Mamutik. :( but all in all, it was a beautiful and enjoyable trip with amazing people :)

Sunset at Tanjung Aru :) we chased the sunset!

with Debs and Lydia at Pulau Mamutik;
two very important people in my two previous semesters who encouraged and walked with me in my university journey :) 

Sunrise on our last day at Bukit Padang :) 
don't have many pictures with me at the moment because most of it are in Lydia's camera. but i thank God for this trip and for the little blessings He brought into my life through it :)

okay, back to doing something (cg kit) i've been procrastinating for some time now :\

Sabah Trip

Give me life in Thy ways

Hello, just got back (about a week ago) from Camp Camerons 2012. And it was a really good stop and check for my own life. Met some old friends and lots of new ones too and most of all built pretty meaningful relationships with people there :) Met a lot of amazing people there, each with his and her own story to tell.

It was three weeks long! Coming back from it, I do miss the times there.

But I believe all that happened there, all I've gone through and experienced, that there's a reason for all that and that reason is so that I can go on with life wherever I am living life in His ways. That's the whole point and purpose of life, I suppose. 

I don't really know how to sum everything up in a blog post, it'll be a very very long one I foresee and that kind of makes me, uhh, avoid it. Oh, that's one thing I learnt about myself: I tend to avoid things. I really fear, dislike confrontations. But certain events at camp brought me to a place where I realized coming forth with the truth, apologies, thoughts and feelings, etc. was actually better as compared to the quiet tensions and awkwardness. It's something I've got to learn to do. To be truthful with the ones I love.

This is my family :) The Gad Family or The Gaddadites.



Really thank God for these people. We shared so much with each other over the days, got into areas of disagreements and sorts but worked it out. And I pray we continue to grow in our relationships and love for each other. Really thank God for each one. :)

Another thing I realized at camp was how I related to others. People. Lives. I think along the way, I just lost sight of how very precious each person in my life was. Along the way, I've hurt so many :( I need to learn to love all over again. To not harden my heart to others and also situations. To listen more and talk less. To love not only in words but through my actions. To care. 

I actually really enjoyed the Sabbaths there, where we went off on our own and had hours and hours of silence with God. The place we were at, Chefoo Methodist Center, was really nice. The first week I found a spot on the hills where it was mossy and quite dry, I lay there looking at the blue sky and the trees before me. It was...wahh :) The second and third Sabbaths were spent walking around a bit more. Streams, grass, walls, trees, etc. The things I discovered and talked about with God really made me see how shortsighted I had been to many things in my life.

This camp for me was a lot of redeeming, a lot of correcting and learning to live and enjoy His presence once  again. I guess as we grow older and take on more and more responsibilities, we sometimes lose that joy and ability to be still with God. I know I did. I'd gotten so used to running around, doing this and that, to a point I grew pretty tired and disillusioned. But this stop at Camp Cameron really helped me get my bearings straight again. Thank God.

I come back with this name for God - My Father. The one who created me, who knows me, who loves me, who cares and provides for me, who watches over and protects me, who guides me, who teaches me, who encourages me, who strengthens me, who comforts me, who corrects and disciplines me, who forgives me, who knows what's best for me, and who is so much more to me. This is my Father. :)

Knowing that I am the one who needs Him and not the other way around. It is by His grace and mercy, I am here today. And it is by His grace and mercy that I live each and every single day.

Lord, give me life in Your ways.


The rainbow God blessed us with on our final camp special night. It was beautiful :) A sign of God's covenant and faithfulness. Thank You, Lord, for Camp Cameron.

travel alone

today, i did some travelling alone :) okaylah, near by only. 

a trip up to genting :D

took the bus from One Utama. the uncle before me forgot to take his IC and Senior Citizen card and had walked off, i had to chase him and use my broken Cantonese to remind him of his card.


on the skyway :)
i always liked this part!


i met an Iranian student and her brother at the skyway place, helped them with directions and got to know the girl a bit better :) 

-in between-

on the way back, at the skyway thing again, an aunty asked if she could borrow my phone to make a call. so i lent it to her. she was talking to me in mandarin all the way :| tough!

in the bus, the uncle beside me started chit chatting with me with the line, "Are you Philipino?" :\ i think it's the sunburn! then after he figured i was chinese, he started speaking to me in Cantonese the whole journey back! i think i fared quite well and i did understand most of the conversation :) chehwah. however my responses were a whole mumbo jumbo of wrong words and tones. :\

the "in between" was the best part of the trip :)
cause i was not alone.

one thing about travelling alone is you take more notice of the people around you and you are more open to strangers,
people you have never had a connection with. 
it may be dangerous at times,
but sometimes it's an opportunity to show love to another :)

end of january!

maybe i should travel alone every end of the month.
hmmm, that's a thought :)

sun, sand, sea


so, this chinese new year, the family had the reunion dinner here in PJ and we didn't go back to Ipoh. not much visiting was done. we were having a quiet chinese new year in quiet PJ.

on the third day of chinese new year, i went on a trip to cherating, pahang with li foong and kay-lynn, li foong's mom and her younger brother, and an extended family of theirs. altogether 10 of us :)

we spent three days and two nights in Legend Resort and did tons of swimming in the resort pool, in the sea, walks on the beach, eating eating eating, and taking pictures for keepsake. 

my fellow travelers :)

all the girls :)
li foong and wei wei, kay lynn and tian tian, me and jing yue.

where's tian tian?

wei wei :)

jing yue saving hermit crabs.

we got really bad sunburns :\
this was the process of it.
cause we didn't bother putting ANY sunscreen at all. 
what were we thinking?!

 on the beach

 in the pool

 bad sunburns :( how we still smile is a question.
we were lobster red and our skins were (and still is) really painful :(

still, this was fun.
i had a really really good time!
lots of laughs, enough rest, lots of swimming (i love water!)

it was nice too remembering back on our last cherating trip back in 2007 :)

five years ago. :')
how we've all grown up.


thanks, girls :)

Week 9

It's Thursday already :| Eeps! And I've still got much to finish up. I have no idea why I'm so unproductive :( It's like nothing seems to be moving. It's like I'm just moving in circles and time keeps running and pretty soon it'll be Week 9 where I've got presentations and datelines to meet. I don't want Week 9 to come.

I'm not even looking at Week 10 :\

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, 
for tomorrow will worry about itself. 
Each day has enough trouble of its own. 
Matthew 6:34

One day at a time, one day at a time. God, please help me through each day. I'm such a hopeless case on my own :( But with God, life is worth living.

Mid-Sem Break List

Thank God for this one week break. Have got a mad amount of deadlines to meet immediately after this week. And so, to remind me of the urgency and that though this break is a good rest, it is also a time to catch up and prepare for the tsunami of late nights, coffee and work that is to come. AHHHHHHH!!! 

Things that I have to get settled:
  • Digging deep into the Word of God & Spending more time in Prayer (because this is the best and most important preparation for any circumstance)
  • Educational Psychology Presentation on Gifted Students
  • Moral and Religion Assignment on the religion of Islam
  • Moral and Religion Assignment on students' take on religion.
  • Writing Assignment - Lesson Plan
  • Writing Assignment on the way writing is taught in schools today.
  • Reading Assignment - Finding a good reading text
  • Thinking and Communication Forum on Euthanasia
  • Making a list and keeping it *fingers crossed* (half done :P)
*takes a deep breath*
Trusting God 
because by my own strength and abilities, 
I am incapable to handle it all.

God, please grant me wisdom and self-discipline to finish up what I have to finish up. Help me to remember to allow you to work in me and through me even while I'm trying to get through my list of things to do. Help me to be a good steward of my time that at the end of this break, I would have invested and used it according to how You would want me to. Above all, may I glorify You in all that I do.

beauty that refreshes


we were saying we could photoshop some sheep into this picture and go on to say we went to New Zealand :)
Took a trip with the family (minus Yew Meng, tambah Jack) and went to Janda Baik to visit Kok Onn. The place there is pretty amazing - simple and beautiful :) I like!

Travel bunch :)
Our intended trip was a camping trip (sleeping in tents, start a camp fire and roast marshmallows, swim in the cold river, eat canned food kind of thing). But plans changed and we decided on a little more comfort. But we still did a bit of the intended. :)

Swim in the cold river - checked!
Swimming against the current was pretty fun and entertaining :D
Start a camp fire - checked!
No marshmallows though :\
Instead we used the fire to dry ourselves :P
That night, while Kok Onn and Yew Kong went into the jungles to catch lizards, Jack, Yew Leung and I took  the poncho, laid it on the ground and spent a good two hours on our backs looking up at the stars. There were so many many many of them - uncountable!

We believe we found the Big Dipper, Small Dipper and Orion's Belt (and Orion who is very tegap!) but after google-ing about them, I have my doubts :P haha. We tried to find the North Star and assumed we found it. We also saw a shooting star flash past us. Other than that, we munched on tiger biscuits and drank mineral water. There were one or two kelip-kelips in the nearby tree.

The beauty of God's creation is simply amazing. The creation reflects the Creator :) And indeed it echoes in my heart, "Who am I that the Creator is mindful of me?" and with that I am filled with thanks and gratitude that He is mindful of me and He does care for me.

And this beauty refreshes me.
(or maybe it was the cold river water's effect)

When I consider Your heavens,
the work of Your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which You have set in place,
what is man that You are mindful of him,
the son of man that You care for him?
Psalm 8:3-4

very funny in a chick flick kind of way, not quite predictable, easy to take in, feel good ending. i like it! the kind of movie that doesn’t require you to think too much or too hard Smile suitable when you should be studying for exams, hah!

actually, i’ve been watching quite some movies in these past two weeks. Megamind and The Other Guys. and i’ve had bucket loads of laughs from them.

must constantly say to myself

“WOI, STUDY LAHH!”
