cookies :)

i baked chocolate chip cookies with my mom today :)

speaking of cookies,

this video cracks me up all the time! :D

om-nom-nom-nom...

:)

so, how's your holidays so far?

standard question for a girl with six months break :D

it goes along with,

"so, what are you doing now?"

followed by,

"so, what are you planning to do in the future?"

these questions keep coming. it get's a tad bit tiring sometimes. but oh well, they are conversational topics, i suppose.

i am not working, yet. (i think i will, i don't know. maybe.)

i am not hundred percently sure what i'm going to do in the future, though there is a vague idea.

i am enjoying my holidays and i am not bored of it, yet :)

so, here's a bit of what 2010 has been like for me, so far...

kicking it off with sushi in singapore :)

with sue ann and my cousin, lup peng. :)

it's something because...

singapore was my first time out of malaysia. hee.

and sushi isn't an everyday thing for me. so yeah.

when we got back from singapore,

we went for a gathering of ex-taman sea cf-ers and a few current ones :)

and the singapore four (us in the picture above) was reunited. hee.

was dead tired when i got home.

and then there was,

paul and dinah's wedding.

PPBC girls ♥

david, thank you!

you know for what ;) hee.

days followed with meet ups,

david, vei li, nick and i.

and also with a few high school friends for lunch :)

veili and yenli and kaylynn,

i'm missing you guys truckloads!

hopefully, "melbourne" materializes soon, real soon!

♥

brandon left for USA too :(

dear, brandon :)

i hope you're doing alright in USA-land.

we miss you much and you were such a funny funny guy.

take care and keep walking close to God.

:)

the youths had a trip to bukit cahaya.

there was supposed to be cycling, but we walked the whole way.

and ice cream in the middle was soooo good :)

went for klang bak kut teh after that.

(my first time! i know, how un-malaysian can i get, right? there's always a first time for everything :)

we celebrated joanne's birthday

with food, wii and pictionary and talks till one in the morning :)

my arm was aching the next day due to wii tennis :(

went to genting with some friends. :)

loved the theme park and the cold weather.

and loved the rest we got there.

joanne and i slept lots, hahaha.

view from the cable car ride :)

i likes what my Creator does.

on the way back down.

celebrated khy li's 20th birthday :)

seriously, can't believe you're twenty already!

also a few shopping trips, sleepovers, walks at kiara with gloria, squash with JoanneHo and JoanneLim, and some other stuff here and there.

so that's 2010 so far.

enjoying your holidays?

yes :)

adventures

hello :) lots have been happening. haven't had much time to update but truth is, sometimes... okay, most of the time... i'm too lazy to do so.

but anyway,

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!

can you believe it 2009 is over and a new year has just begun, again. 2009 was pretty tough *sigh* but God was there and in Him there was much hope and grace to get me through each and every situation. despite the tears, hurts, regrets, fears and all that, i knew in God i could trust. sometimes it was harder and sometimes it was easier. but 2009 taught me that i must always trust, trust in God that is.

it was pretty much an adventure, last year. not in the moving-around-physically-to-new-places sense, but more of walking into new things and experiences with God.

the adventure beginning with Him asking me to take His hand and just follow and walk along side Him. He taught me to stop looking at the world through my tainted and stained point of view and to look through His eyes. i'm still learning to do so and i don't find it easy to do, most of the time. the adventure continued, and i thank God for guiding me back when i strayed. sitting down with me when i was tired of the road. encouraging me and most of all assuring me of His love.

this adventure taught me a lot, tested my faith, broke me where i needed breaking, but most of all made me experience God even more in my life. without Him i am nothing.

even as i step into 2010, may there be even more adventures with the one i love. and may i walk close to Him all the way.

Lord, i commit this new year to you :)

oh, and i just got back from singapore :D my first time out of malaysia-land. i had truckloads of fun :) pictures are on facebook :D

singapore bunch ♥

teehee :)

one week since

it's just been seven days since STPM ended. but it really feels like it has been longer. i don't know. must be all the going out and stuff, it gets tiring sometimes but i'm not complaining ;)

so far, i've...

• went for a joy ride with RachealWong, BrandonLee, Yee and Mark. and ended up at Rachael's watching 200 Pounds Beauty till 3.30am.
  
• helped CREST pack stuff for flood victims along with Jack, Kentrick, MichelleFoo and lots of other people :) it felt really good to say, "i just finished STPM, yesterday" :) whenever someone asks what i'm doing.
  
• watched A Chirstmas Carol with JoanneHo and Sue Ann :) i liked it.
  
• helped out with the kids' christmas party. :D it was truckloads of fun with a jungle theme and lots and lots of gummy candy which we got sick of because we overate :P the kids were super adorable, some dressed up in animal costumes and others having funky headgear :) they're precious!
• sunday was Youth Sunday! Sue Ann led worship and God was really there :)
• christmas practice and after that, shopping with Sue Ann and Sue Yin.
• we went shooting star-gazing :) RachaelWong, MelissaSoon, AliciaSoon, Yew Leung and me. i saw two :) and that was lovely. it was a bit cloudy, but at least we saw a few :)
• monday was our class outing to OneUtama :) almost all, except a few. we karaoked, and it was surprisingly cheap :) then Kentrick and i went jeans hunting, and we found good pairs :D
• tuesday was a day out with Krystie to Sunway Pyramid. good time of catching up we watched The Princess and The Frog. i love love love Disney cartoons :)
• later, we had a mahjong party at Jack's and after that i slept over at JoanneHo's. :) at last my mahjong hype has been satisfied. though i pretty much suck at it. ah wells.
• there was dance practice for christmas. it's been so long since i've last danced.

and the plans for today...

• meeting up with VeiLi, YenLi, KayLynn and LiFoong :) and then sleepover. and tomorrow we'll go shopping :)

oh, i'm currently in the process of cleaning up my room. it's so horribly messy! yeah, i've had one week to clean it up and i still haven't finished, yet.

Dear Lord,
even as i'm having so much to do with all the going outs and running abouts. i pray that i will still remain in You. i don't want to push You aside when things are going fine and coming back to You when stuff is falling apart. teach me to walk faithfully. and even as i close another chapter of my life, take me and guide me through this new journey.
i love You.

the end of this very dark tunnel...

...and into sunshine!! :)

STPM is finished. enough said :)

thank you, God, for being there all the way!

thank you for being my refuge, my strength, my God in whom i trust.
