Up!

Up was a delightful movie with parts that are super cute, super sweet and some touching parts. My favourite character is Ellie :) I give it 3.5/5. I watched the 3D version, the first time i watch a 3D show. It feels kind of blurry and the 3D glasses are not the most comfortable thing. But interesting still. Watch out for the Pixar snippet right before the movie called "Partly Cloudy". Extremely entertaining!

Hey Raffles you're so fine

You're so fine you blow my mind!

Hee. Yes, i packed my room again.

Let's go to the farms!

The goats stand in a row, with their udders fitted to suction pumps. They appear very obedient.

I love this photo. the goat so cute.

Then after, we headed to the frog farm. They had live displays showing the life cycle of the frog.

memories

My "meihua" shoes broke when i was rehearsing last Friday. Good thing my ankles were not harmed in the process. I've since dumped them, but not without taking a picture first. It's just that it was a part of one of my favourite memories in SMU. :)

I am precious in Your eyes, and honoured, and You love me

1But now thus says the LORD, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel:"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.2When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.3For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I give Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in exchange for you.4Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you,I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life.5 Fear not, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you.6I will say to the north, Give up, and to the south, Do not withhold;bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth,7everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made."

Before me no god was formed, nor shall there be any after me.11 I, I am the LORD, and besides me there is no savior.12I declared and saved and proclaimed, when there was no strange god among you; and you are my witnesses," declares the LORD, "and I am God.13Also henceforth I am he; there is none who can deliver from my hand; I work, and who can turn it back?"

16Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty waters,17who brings forth chariot and horse, army and warrior;they lie down, they cannot rise, they are extinguished, quenched like a wick:18 "Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old.19 Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.20The wild beasts will honor me, the jackals and the ostriches, for I give water in the wilderness, rivers in the desert,to give drink to my chosen people, 21the people whom I formed for myself that they might declare my praise.

25"I, I am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.

Dear niece

Dear niece,

Welcome to the world. I already love you very much.

Love, your Aunty :)

work/life

Some of my friends celebrate 4 years of working life. Yes, time flies right. This is another reason i'm a bit proud of my blog. i've had it since i was in uni. i know it's not all that long, but long enough for me to feel proud.

A few of my colleagues received money from the firm for their uni education, in exchange for a 4-year bond. Now they're done. and they're pleased. It's like a little milestone.

dear God,



please give me photographic memory. thank you.



in Jesus' Name, Amen.

i had a "God-moment" this morning.

i was walking to office from Chinatown MRT station. It's a 10-minute walk. When i got out of the MRT station, i saw that it was raining pretty heavily. I had no umbrella. I didn't know what to do, but i wasn't really thinking much, so i walked. I just walked and walked all the sheltered paths. I knew that at some point, i will get to a part where i cannot walk on without an umbrella.

Just then, i met an ex-colleague. She didn't need her umbrella anymore and was happy to lend it to me. I think it's a God-moment because the help came in the time of need.

You are my Lord

You are my Lord
You are my God
You're the only one who conquered the grave
In You i believe
Your love i receive
You will always be my King

You are my Lord
You're the shepherd of my life
You are the lover of my soul
You are my God
Every moment that i live
Your mighty hand is doing wonders for me

Next time your day goes south, here what you do:

Steep yourself in the grace of God.
Saturate your day in His love.
Marinate your mind in His mercy.
He has settled your accounts, paid your debt. Christ carried our sins in His body on His cross.
- 1 Peter 2:24

back back back

i'm back at work. And other than clearing a backlog of mails, i'm actually not that busy (yet). I'm happy to be back. work is a good reason to have coffee. hehe.



You deserve all praise
You deserve all praise
Evermore Lamb upon the throne

We give thanks to You
Your mercy knows no end
We shout out Your praise
Your love endures forever

down memory lane

i was looking at my secondary school yearbook...and it left a really odd feeling in my stomach. I wonder why i did certain things and why i didn't. I dunno. it's just really weird.

I can't find my autograph book....u know the one where everyone signs when school comes to a close? arghhhhhhhh.

Keepsakes

Once again, i'm packing my room. I seem to be doing it so often because i usually pack one small bit at a time. And everytime i do something like this, i make a big deal out of it. heh.

The Phantom of the Opera. I watched it in London in 2004.

London planner. I don't remember referring to this guide much. But i kept it anyway.

Big Ben. Coincidentally, it celebrates its 150th birthday today!

Westminster Abbey.

Tate Museum

I first tasted this in London's Harrod's.

If u look really closely, u can see the words "Stonehenge" at the bottom of the coin. I've to say momentos like this are really really useless. So after this picture, it was thrown away.

I consider this an awesome musical. Must watch. I loved Eponine in here.

Harrods!

This photo was taken for the date.

After London, i went to Barcelona. Visited a monastry there.

Among the keepsakes, i found this. Awesome right.

We wore this at commencement ( the start of school at SMU)

A floormat i've had since i was 16. I've another picture taken with this and a good friend from secondary school. :)

Don't fret too much. God will take care of you and your situation. - sis. 29 Apr 09

Wisdom

James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

James 3:17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere.

isn't this piggy cute? heehee.

Psalm 121

1I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?2 My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
3He will not let my foot be moved; he who keeps me will not slumber.4Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5The LORD is my keeper; the LORD is my shade on my right hand.6 The sun shall not strike me by day, nor the moon by night.
7The LORD will keep me from all evil; he will keep my life.8The LORD will keep my going out and my coming in from this time forth and forevermore.
