Sad...............

It's 28th November 2006.............

I am feeling really down and sad.................currently at work........been a busy day at work........rushing heaps of stuff coz i will be in training again tomorrow.........

Reason for sadness??? Feeling empty..........coz Dave has just gone offshore and he'll only be back next week.......he'll be away for 2 weeks.............I never knew that I would feel so sad.......so empty........but now, I know the reason why.........he has grown to be a part of me........a part of my life..........and how complete can you be when a part of your life is not there? Anyway, just pray and hope that his mobile phone will have reception when his ship leaves the shore..........

Got up early this morning about 5 plus, made breakkie for him, and he called a cab and left for the airport.........I showered, ironed my clothes, had my breakfast and came straight to work.......spoke to hubby here and there before he boarded the plane..........at work, felt so moody........until my phone rang at 929am.........it was my dearest dave.........saying that he just touched down and was waiting for his luggage..........cool.......there is reception there and he will be there till some time tomorrow before the ship leaves.........so will have contact with him for a while at least.............

Arrrggghhhh...........I shouldnt be feeling so down.........but i cant help it..........it's alright........i will get used to it in no time...........i will be burying myself in drama serials..............so that time will fly..........in no time, dave will be back.............pray that he will be safe and that his work will complete quickly and he can come home earlier.............

Feeling quite sad to go back to the empty house...........arrrgghhhhhhhhhhhh..............but it's ok.............I'll be fine...............i should be looking at the holiday that dave and i will be going for after he comes back...........

CHEER UP LYN!!!!!!

Exam's Over..............Summer around the corner

WHOOHOO!!!!!

Exams are finally OVER!!!!!!! Cant wait to get back my results...................

It has been 2 long stressful weeks for me.............stress at work, stress in uni.............stress over some issues happening.............everything is stress stress and stress..............

Work was killing me as I was nearing my exams.............stupid accounting systems giving me problems!!!!! Insufficient information provided...............etc etc.................plus rushing through my assignments in uni.....................was on the verge of falling off the cliff...........but God is good...........................He is really good!!!! He pulled me through all these...........with a lot of assurance that I will be fine...............

Anyway, was working till last Wednesday before I was officially off work to study for my exams..........Thursday, started studying day and night, Friday, was studying day and night, Saturday was studying day and night, Sunday was studying day and night.............no life at all...............oh, on Saturday, Dave actually brought me out for dinner at Blue Duck..........that was the day he proposed to me last year.....hehe.......it was a good break for me from studying...............

Monday, I had two papers!!!!! First paper was the killer paper that I feared most..............Managerial Accounting 530.............went for my paper..........and dont know how i went of course, but i did my best.......just hope that the results will be fine......and then when i was driving home after the exam.............was busy discussing with my classmate about the paper, didnt notice the time........it was school time...............and i saw a camera flash right in front of my eyes..........i was very sure i was only going at about 50 plus..............but of course school zone 40km/ph...............sigh.............not sure if the camera flashed at me or at the car behind me..................anyway, bad mood for the whole afternoon coz of the speed camera...........i have NEVER had a speed fine before...............this is the first time i am getting one.........i am normally quite good with my speed.............normally lah...........hehehe..........but sigh...........

but life goes on........just hope that it's not me................

went home, had to continue studying for my information systems 531 paper...........i was exhausted by then.............from the first paper.............so tired..............i actually fell asleep for about 5 minutes on the sofa when i was reading.............got up........and thought, let's set alarm and get up half an hour later.............tried to sleep, cannot sleep...............fed up........went to take a shower, and then came out, continued studying...............dave came home and sent me to uni for my exam..................did my paper, left the exam hall earlier..........coz i was too tired to think..........since i feel that i have finished, i might as well just leave..............i am quite happy with my paper.............coz i know that i have done my best...........despite the fact that i didnt have much time to study..............

Tuesday.............had my law paper at night.............whole day i was stressed out...........coz afraid that i cant remember a single thing during exam...........coz my brain capacity is already at its max................whole day was practicing the question..............wrote till my fingers were swollen!!!! at night, went for my exam................did my paper...........and left the exam hall earlier as well..............i finished all that i can remember.........and answered all i could answer.....................so thought to myself, there is no point staying any longer..........better go home and rest...............coz i was really mentally and physically exhausted.............but i am quite happy with my paper as well...........just hope for the best............

Wednesday, had to come to work, to sort out some payroll stuff in the office...........sigh, i wish i wasnt working................got up at about 630...........came to work..........and i was like a zombie!!!!! what to do...............???? life.................

Finally, yesterday, had my Financial Accounting paper...............whole day was kinda stressed up.............coz i didnt touch this subject till yesterday.............for the whole second half of the semester, i ddint know what was going on with the course............haha.........coz i am a slacker...............started studying in the morning.........and realised that oh my god!!! i cant remember anything!!!!! went to uni earlier for group discussion as well.............went into the exam hall without much hope..............just pray for God to work miracle...........hehehe.............i guess i did my best as well.............and when i first looked at the paper, i thought, ohh my goooddddd!!!!! what are the questions asking for???? during the 10 minutes reading time, i didnt even bother looking at the problem questions.............i was doing the multiple choice questions..............and then finally time to start...........said a short prayer.............and things started coming back to me..............things i studied...........and flashbacks during lecture..............which is good...............all my accounts balanced...........whoohoo!!!!! so happy................stayed till the end of the exam.........checking my calculations................and YESSSSSSSS!!!!! last paper done!!!! for this semester at least!!!!

Last night, went to have chilli mussells with dave, coz we havent had dinner...........i think i was too tired...........and mentally exhausted...........didnt have much appetite to eat..............went home, showered, and i was gone...............sigh, still gotta come to work today.............and stress over all the back logs that i have.....................i have so much stuff to cover...........................

dave has been really supportive throughout my exam period..............the house like a pig sty..........hehehe..........papers everywhere..................wanna say thank you my dear..........for your support.....................

lastly, just wanna highlight the goodness of God...............when i feel that i cant take it anymore, God's always there for me................He has always been there for me..............when i am tired, He seems to give me energy pills to sustain me to continue what i have to do..............when i feel like giving up, He seems to be there with poms poms cheering for me...............when i feel like i cant do it, He seems to keep telling me that I can I can.............God is so good to me................I just wanna share the goodness of God!!!! He is really faithful, if we are faithful to Him................For those who still dont know Him, you have to experience it yourself..............and once you have experienced it, your life will change forever............. :):):):)

ok lah................1pm........time to get back to work...........

 

Have a great weekend!!!! God bless!!!!

End of October

My goodness.........nearly the end of the year.........

Exams are creeping in........work load is piling........heaps of stuff lining up........

Let's see, what happened since I last wrote.....

My birthday.....a surprise from Dave and the rest of the friends from church. Went to a Japanese restaurant in Northbridge.....cant remember what is the name of that restaurant.......but the food was yummy!!!!! Before that, was watching the Eagles vs Swans game.............exciting...........EAGLES won!!!! Yeah, it's good they won, or else, Dave will be complaining the whole day...........HAHAHA.............Dave got me a violin.........which is really cool.....coz i have always wanted to play the violin...........from then till today, i can play some songs on it already.........hiak hiak hiak..........not sure if my fingering is correct or the way i am pulling the strings is correct..........but as long as there is music coming out from the playing..........i am happy..........hahaha.........i know i irritate dave a lot with the noises.........hahaha........hope to learn formally after my exams......i love my bday gift!!!!! :):):) Initially i thought dave was gonna get a drum kit for me.........hahahah..........but i was wrong...........

Besides that, nothing exciting happening..........coz studying and working...........equals to a dead Lyn....................by 10pm every night i am gone...........wake up 6 plus in the morning.........to work.............at night to class.............home.........and crash.............

oh ya........one exciting thing is that Dave and I will both be serving God in cell ministry again.........we had a break from it for a while..........and we both grew alot during our break....we learnt a lot......from this break that we had.....i have grown so much closer to God.............i cant say that i am perfect........i am just human and i have my weaknesses...............i am striving to be a better person..........maybe still have heaps of flaws...........but i believe...........God is moulding me to be a person he wants me to be..........Slowly but surely...........

over the past few months..........i am growing so deeply in love with my husband..........there are still ups and downs of course..........but each time i look at him..........i adore him more and more.........i thank God for him in my life.............its a blessing to have him as my hubby!!!!! of course there are still things we dislike about each other...........but i can loudly scream out to everyone that I LOVE DAVE!!! *blush blush*  

what else? oh ya........got dave an electric guitar and amp...............he is enjoying it which is good..........and we went for a black tie event last friday at hyatt hotel.............it was the 2006 Western Australian Industry and Export Awards.........my company is one of the finalists for the CY O'Connor Award for Excellence in Engineering and Technology.............the food was not too bad...........and it was fun dressing up for it lah..........but after that event.......i was dead beat...........reached home at about 12 plus.........showered and i was gone..........

last few weekends.........have been camping in uni doing my assignments and stuff.........super tired of it..........cant wait for the exams to finish..........that's when the pig will be let loose!!!! hahahahahahahah!!!! who's the pig?!?!? i am!!!!! i can sleep.........can do whatever i want to!!!!! now, cant do anything at all...........no time to slack from now on........exams are drawing near..........sigh!!!!

wow..........i have written quite a lot................will try to post some pictures soon..........

look forward to catch up with some old friends............going back on the 15th december..........!!!! WHOOHOO!!!!!

have a great week all!!!!!

 

 

 

4th DAY OF SPRING...........

WOW.............seasons come seasons go!!!!! Its already September.............that is so quick!!!!!

Many things happened from the last time I blogged up till today................I started my classes.........and surprisingly, I am sorta enjoying my studies.............I guess it's coz I have to pay so much for it.....hehe..........$2K per unit and I am doing 4 units so that totals $8k for just one semester!!!!! *shaking my head*..............the unis really know how to squeeze $$$ from students!!! should have done another degree instead of doing my masters.......that would be so much cheaper.......but slightly longer though.......Will be having some mid semester tests next few weeks..........and a test this week too.............sigh........havent really had time to sit down and really study.........or should i say, i have been slacking off last week coz its semester break.............but i think i have not studied and revised so much in my life!!!!! probably coz i am working as well which adds on to the worry and stress of falling behind.............

hmmm.......lets see what i can share.........oh ya.....the goodness of God!!!!! i was actually doing more of the marketing and advertising stuff for my current company...........and i started working part time when my uni started...........on the first week of uni.........i received a call from my current manager, but missed it..............and he left a message to urgently call him back........he even dropped dave an email to get me to call him..........when i heard that........i thought.......gosh, what is so serious??? did i get into trouble for something??? so i called him back.........he told me that the financial controller of the company has just tendered her resignation...........and asked if i was game enough to take up that role since i am doing my master of accounting...........and i did.......and now i even have my own office.......it's really god's blessings.....history is..........i tendered my resignation with this company before i got married in april.......and found another job at the australian medical association in the training dept...........when i came back from msia, started work at AMA in may, but didnt like that job.............and quit...........i was looking for some part time job to fill time while i wasnt in uni.......and of course to earn money.............the next day after i left AMA, my current manager emailed me, to see if i have started working somewhere when i was searching the web for some pt jobs........and he said he is willing to offer me part time work if i came back..........and he also reviewed my pay........... :):):) so, i came back after negotiation.............and started part time when uni started...............and then the offer came.............for financial controller...........isnt it god's timing and blessing???? and before that..........i also rejected coming in to this company once.........and manager also called me the second time to counter offer..........sometimes, i really feel God works wonders.........and He wants the best for us..............there's the song that goes.........In His time, in His time, He makes all things beautiful in His time.......Lord please show me everyday, as You're teaching Your way, that You'll do just what you say, In Your time.........i love this song!!!! and i strongly believe that God has always been there for me.............

Anyway, work has been really stressful though, coz we changed new ERP systems.........and also I am tackling a new role altogether.............with minimal knowledge...........plus my study stress...............just gotta get a hold of myself..........when i sit down and do stuff..........things can get overwhelming at times............but I think during this time, i have actually grown closer to God.........coz He is the source of my strength...........when I am weak, He makes me stronger...........God is good!

The craze with Dave the past few weeks was Naruto........who always goes DATEBAYO..............after all his sentences...........I LOVE that show..............it's very inspiring..............positive attitude...........and I learn alot from it........and not to mention the tears that i have shed........HAHAHA.............what's new?? Lynnie is always a cry baby..........but...........it's a good show...............

Time to get back to work.........lunch time is over...............oh ya, probably will go back to spore/msia during Xmas/NY period..............WHOOHOO!!!!!! 3Fs!!!!! Family, Friends and Food!!!!! Look forward to catch up!!!!!

Have a great day all!!!!!

Pouring outside.........

Pouring………

 

Its raining donkeys and pigs outside!!!!! Pouring like mad………..Monday………..phew……..glad that its coming to an end………..

 

Last weekend, on Saturday, finally got around to clear my “room” to prepare myself for studies. Moved the wardrobe from my room to the other room. Moved the bookshelves in my room from north to south………..and rotated my bed 90 degrees………hehehe…….moved the computer table from west to east as well………its still very messy………I only managed to clear the CD shelf and the book shelf………other shelves with my other stuff are still in a total disaster………hahaha………..dave wasn’t home when I was clearing the room, so I was incredible hulk that day!!!! Moving stuff here and there………

 

On Sunday, got up, cooked some pancakes……..actually not i cooked lah.......I did the mix and dave fried them……….and then had breakfast……….and then did housework………laundry and etc………..and then played piano………and then we went out to have lunch……..wanted to go for Happy Meal horfun!!!! But closed……….thought, fine………kabuki for Japanese………….but also closed!!! ARRRGGHHH!!!!! We settled for nasi goreng ayam at Makan2………..after that, headed for tennis and basketball………….started playing basketball first……….just two of us……..quite hilarious…………but, it was fun!!! And mannn!!!!! It was tiring after so long………….as compared to my netball days in high school…………..my fitness is like *shaking my head*………….no comments mann!!!!! After that played tennis for a while……….but, my wrist is still hurting like mad!!!! So couldn’t go on anymore……..and went back to basketball.............after that, took our shower, and then headed straight to church……….worship was great……….service was more like an “interview” type session, with generosity as the main topic…………..

 

Reached home last night, dave cooked pineapple friedrice..........YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I am salivating now!!!! Coz i am hungry as usual!!!! Sigh, i need food now........how ah?!?!?! 2 more hours........gosh!!!!) anyway, after that i showered, and i didnt know what was going on in the world.............i was dead to the world................all i know was dave was watching tour de france...........and i was reading a book..........and the moment i put my book down, i met some friends in dreamland.........hahaha........

 

In the middle of the night, i remember dave asking me (coz he felt something hard), what are you using to cover your face (in a blur voice)...........when the "face" he meant was my shoulders.............!!!!! it was quite hilarious..........i was laughing to myself in the middle of the night..............at times i pity dave..........hehe..........coz i am a kicker when i sleep!!!! especially when i am cold...........dave made a statement..........."you wanted to be my mattress last night, you wanted to sleep under me"..............coz when i am cold, i will kick my way under the person sleeping next to me..........my mum can testify that.......coz when i was younger, and when i slept with my mum, i would kick her till she gets backaches..........hehe...........and now, poor dave has to put up with that.............but i didnt know i was that bad........hehe......cold mah!!!!!

 

Dave and I have been sick the past 2 weeks……….I passed the cold to him……….sigh……..we both look horrible……….i looked like a bull with tissue paper stuck up my running nose for the first few days I was sick…….I started this running nose joke with dave………”I think my nose thinks that it’s getting a bit too big and it needs to run and exercise to become a bit smaller”……………but yeah………….i hate getting the flu!!!! But I think mine is nearly gone now, but dave’s still down with it at the moment………..poor thing………..

 

I was reading my daily devotional thingy, and this famous verse came up again………just to encourage some and myself too……..we have been discussing about this lately………….and yeah……….here goes………

 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7

 

I have to keep reminding myself as well………not to be anxious not to be anxious……….cool down……….dont be gancheong………….at times, we tend to lean on our own human strength………..the verse above reminds us I guess in a way, to have faith……and keep praying................

 

Hmm………my journal is so messed up and jumbled up………..

 

I am going back to student life………..working as well………..a bit worried…….coz my brain’s rusty already……quite excited…..hope that I will quickly finish this one year………..uni’s starting next Monday………and I have classes every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday………just hope I can cope………….

 

I am thinking of going back for a holiday prolly end of this year during semester break, or during Chinese New Year………..I miss my family and friends………and the food too………….

 

Wow...........I wrote life story!!! so long winded!!!!

 

Shall not blabber too much………..hope this week would be a great week for one and all!!!!

July 10th.......already!?!?!?!?

Wow!!!!!

More than half a year gone!!!!!

Been a while since I blogged...............many things happening around me...........good, bad..........I think I am a bit tired these days.................

Exciting stuff? World Cup?!?!?! *SIGH*...........my favourite team lost!!!!! So it wasnt so exciting after all.............Brazil...........they will come back in 2010!!!!! Finally finished........and finally I can sleep in peace without having to wake up in the middle of the night just to watch 22 people kicking a ball around the field for more than an hour trying to get the ball in the goal.............hahahaha..................but I really love watching the World Cup...........I cant believe that I actually didnt sleep for nearly 24 hours just to watch them play........but yeah, am glad that it's over..........and i can get some proper sleep now.........coz it's either me watching it, or dave..............so either way, we both are not really resting...........

3 more weeks and I am back to uni full time again........i just hope to finish the course as quickly as i can...........and get back to the work force full time again..............i am gonna go on a retreat for the next few months.............to reflect on myself..............and to concentrate fully on my studies...........

many things happened and i realised that life is kinda fragile...........friendships, relationships, character, etc etc are always tested...............and i strongly believe that regardless of what happens, one thing will always remain the same..........and that is the LOVE OF GOD for us.............His love for us remains the same yesterday, today, tomorrow........and through eternity...........there's a song that goes..........

That's the love of God its never ending, Thats the love of God, always forgiving, He's always there, He never fails, All He will do is love forever, And He longs to share it, That's the love of God.

Oh ya, just bought a piano too!!!! So happy!!!! Been playing it for the past few days........havent played the organ for a long time..........but yeah, am enjoying every bit of it!!!! I just love playing pieces by Richard Clayderman!!!! Yenhong, if you are reading this blog, can you email me the name of the composer Ecstasy?!?!?! Do you have the notes for that?!?!?! Can you scan and email it to me?!?!?! Hehehehehehe...............

Anyway, I was really down the last few weeks..........and now, I have decided to brighten up my own day.............by not thinking about any sad or negative stuff.........and thnk positive....I will just retreat for a while.........and i believe after this retreat, I will come back even stronger than I am now..............i truly believe that He will make my paths straight and He will be the light unto my feet and guide me through all these turmoil................ :):):)

Dont really know what I am saying here, but I know what I have to do..............

Have a great month of July!!!!!

Look forward to see you guys whom i havent met for ages soon!!!!! I should be going back end of this year during my semester break if I have enough leave to take by end of the year......that is if i dont take any leave during my exam period in uni.............

Cheers!

Second day of winter........

Its only the second day of winter........I am freezing in my office although i have a scarf wrapped around my neck!!!!! My hands are retarded coz they cant move as I want them too.......they are stiff!!!! I can feel the chill up my spine.........I am useless although i love the cold weather.........I am weak.........a cough is developing too..........gosh.........I think because the ventilation in my office is sorta gone, so summer, its hot like fire and winter, its cold like ice!!!!!! I am currently preparing some tender documents for a XXXXXXXXX in Hongkong.........been working on it since last week.............but yeah, should be good................the documents they need, super alot..........and their requirements are so unclear!!!!! So trying hard to understand what they are requesting for.............

It has been quite busy since I came back here........but I still prefer to be busy than have nothing to do.........I am hungry today...........it's freezing...........and I forgot my biscuits!!!! :(:(:(

I really cant wait for the day to end...........its gonna be a long weekend! Monday's a holiday! Whoohoo! We are gonna have a steamboat gathering at our place.......... :) Will take some pictures and post them online...........I have uploaded some wedding pictures, but I just cant finish all of them........still more shots of wedding dinner, evening shots of dave and i at burswood park, and after church shots.......plus the wedding banquet in Malaysia......*perspires*.......downloading the pics is driving me nuts!!!!! It takes so long to download!!!!! Still have honeymoon pics to download too........I am giving up.............it takes too much time...........and I dont really have much time to spare.........does anyone have a quicker way to upload photos???

Last weekend, Dave and I went cycling.............we cycled from home to the Bell Tower..........I havent cycled like for donkey years!!!! I was so tired..............we intend to cycle for breakfast in the city this coming weekend??? Haha, we'll see if we do it or not..........Dave is trying to talk me into letting him cycle to city to work everyday..........coz many people are doing it.............but..............at the moment i dont think so........

Now my mind is only full of food..........hehehe :) I wanna eat kuehtiaw soup!!!! Hot and yummy........with hot chillies and soya sauce!!!! Hmmmm.........YUMMY!!!!!.........*drools*.........ohhh.........and THI KAH CHO (pigs trotters in vinegar).........yumyum!!!! and errr.........the fish mee hoon soup at old airport road hawker centre in singapore!!!!! My goodness................i am hungry!!!! Dont mind some sakae sushi too!!!!! Or KONG BAK PAO in the old airport road hawker as well..............oh my god!!!!! Or Penang Cheecheongfun!!!! Yummy!!!!! I only love Singapore and Malaysia for the food!!!

Better stop..........or my table will be wet.........hahaha............

A few more hours to the long weekend! Gotta make full use of this holiday, coz after this, gotta wait till October for another public holiday!!!! I am waiting for the engineer to pass me some technical specs at the moment for the tender..........and then, I am done for the tender!!!! Whoohoo!!!!!

Better not blabber too much...........just a verse to share...........one of the stuff in my to do list at the moment...........

A man of knowledge uses words with restraint, and a man of understanding is even-tempered. Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue.

Proverbs 17:27-28

I am trying to learn to say the right words at the right time and to control my temper.........which I believe I am improving bit by bit.............but with God's help...........I doubt I can do it without Him.............

Anyway, gotta get back to work!

Have a great day all!

BACK IN OLD COMPANY...........

Wow.......it's nearly winter..........time passes really quickly.............

Many things have happened since I last wrote my blog.........I was in a new job in the Australian Medical Association, but, I was only there for 3 weeks......didnt like what i was doing...very boring.......and not challenging at all....Third week into my job, I received an email from my current manager to ask if I was interested to come back because he couldnt find someone suitable to take over my position...........and because I am going to full time studies in July, I was trying to see if I could go part time. My manager told me that he is willing to offer me part time as long as I am willing to come back to work..........HAHAHA..........sounds as though I am really good yah!!! Maybe??? Hahahah..........just kidding..........I was negotiating with him about my terms of employment and he offered me a much higher salary than before too..........and here I am back here agian...........God's blessings..............

Anyway, when I came back, I noticed that besides accumulating heaps of dust on my desk, computer, book shelf, phone, etc............everything remains untouched!!!!! Amazing!!!!! When I turned on my computer, I found that my email and my computer desktop still remains the same!!!!! And my mail box, the way I set up my filing system on my comp, is still the same..............my office remains the same..............hiak hiak hiak!!!!! I was kinda happy that I didnt have to start all over from scratch...........hehe..............

But on my first day of work..........I already had heaps to do..............designing the adverts, consolidating some documents for a tender, preparing a quotation for a hospital, familiarising myself with some technical stuff, etc etc..............it's my fourth day at work today...........and I am not complaining...............i guess the only thing with this job is the distance from home..........which I will never ever stop complaining about!!!!!

Life with Dave is getting better.............I am missing my family heaps...............cant wait to see them again..............

2006 has been one helluva year for me so far................many things happened since the beginning of the year...........some of the events shook my world badly...............but life goes on..............just gotta stop, think and learn from everything that has happened...............

I will be going to church for "HER TIME" tonight..............for ladies only............and theme tonight is "LETTING GO"..........which is gonna be good!!!!! I am freezing in my cubicle!!!!!! I already have two layers on..........and a scarf wrapped around my neck..............but i am still freezing!!!!! i think i am falling sick..............starting to cough................sniffing away..................

I am hungry too...............OMG!!!!! Winter is here...........gonna be a fat fat pig again!!!!! Hiak hiak hiak!!!!

Shall not blabber too much now..............

Cant wait for the weekend!!!!! WHOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Tired....tired......tired.....

It has been a long long journey since i last wrote my blog.......

All i can summarise for the past few weeks would be.....FATIGUE........tiredness.........

At this moment....i only wanna sleep sleep sleep......and i dont wish to think about anything at all.......sleeping is the only thing i wanna do!!!!!!

Its a long journey ahead.......and there would be many snags along the way.......and i just have to face everything with good cheers!!!!!

All i can say is.........always put God first in everything we do.......and He will always guide our paths and lead us...... :):):):)

COOL BANANAS!!!!! leaving this comfort zone, with own cubicle, privacy...............and into something that is more dynamic..............which is good....................well.............you gain some, you lose some..............

i have been singing the song below each time i feel down and i wanna keep reminding myself that things on earth are temporary..............when i feel stressed over work, rship, family, friends.......................etc...............i will just sing the song to remind myself..........to keep my focus right......and not to worry, nor fret, nor stress..........(easier said than done, but this song calms me down.......hehe)........will end this blog with that...............

turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face, and the things of the earth, will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace..................

In the office at the moment.........lunch break...........bored..............so decided to write something here................let's see..........what have we been up to..........nothing much.............last weekend was Wai Ling's water baptism.............at Point Walter.........was good..........we went to support her...........and Mel's mum also got baptised..........which is really good...............also went to play tennis last weekend...........supposed to swim, but the water looked really cold..........hahaha.....excuses.........so we only ended up playing tennis...........but..........played halfway..............a dunno what nationality couple came and asked if they could play doubles with Dave and I..............no choice.........had to.............coz there is only one court there................anyway, played with them till it turned dark...........so boring.................i prefer to play with Dave.............or people i know.............coz...........errrr.............no kick playing with them...........hiak hiak hiak.............

Sunday night, Dave was watching F1 on tv...............cant really recall anything, coz i was buggered.................I remember lying down, and hearing the noisy F1 race on tv..........and was half asleep..............then suddenly choked and coughed.........dont know what happened actually..............in a daze dave gave me a glass of water..........and poof.........i was gone again..................dreamt of weird stuff...........dolls smiling at me.............*sigh*.........scary!!!!

yesterday, watched supernatural as usual..............hmmm........getting exciting...........oh now i remember..............last weekend we were writing our wedding cards and distributing the cards too...............went to church on saturday........met jean...........darryl, paul, tomomi, melissa, etc etc....................

gosh.......my memory is failing me...........whatever it is...........i just cant wait for today to end................cant wait to have dinner with dave.................my parents are reaching this weekend too........excited...........i cant wait till i start my break..............

Growing up..............

First day of Autumn………………..

Hurrow hurrow……………..

 

Today is the first day of autumn……….and the weather is weird…………………..having a cruisey day……………Taking some time to write bits and pieces here and there as usual………

 

Wow…….it’s already March………time passes so quickly it’s scary………am really very excited over the wedding, and over starting my new life with Dave…………have heaps of stuff not sorted yet…………but I guess we will get them sorted slowly, but surely………..hehehe………….more excited about the married life actually...........hehehe..............

 

Last night, it was really funny……..Dave and I were in the living room watching tv, and the dog started barking………and Dave was trying to pull his ears as long as possible and check with his bionic eyes, to see what the dog was barking at……..finally we saw a cat climbing on the fence………..then we said…….”ohhh………the dog barking at the cat lah……….”………after about 10 minutes, the dog was still barking……..Dave passed a comment which I find really amusing!!!! “What are the two animals doing???” *in a frustrated voice*…………I don’t know…….to me…..it sounds really funny……..coz he spoke as though there was something going on between the cat and the dog……………anyway, last night I was dead to the world………all I can remember is Dave shutting the sliding door, and pulling the blinds………and me telling him……..”how come I can still see outside…….can you turn the blinds the other side”……(coz I feel scared alone at home……..hehehe)……….and him coming and saying bye bye and good night……………and I was gone again…………..to dreamland……..got up at 6am this morning…..and saw his missed call……………guess i was really tired........what's new???

 

Last weekend was cool…….went to the driving range with Dave………it was good………then after golf, we went home………and he cooked curry chicken for me……..it was spicy and yummy!!!!!!! I think his chilly tolerance level is really up there now……….hehehe……….coz I am such a good chilly eater…..hiak hiak hiak!!!!! Anyway, his cooking is really yummy!!!!

 

we have to go to Wesley church to meet our marriage celebrant………gotta sign an intention to marry document………hmm….actually thinking about it……..feeling a bit gancheong……….hehehe…………was just thinking back about myself as a little girl………going to kindergarten/primary school………in dark blue uniform………..then grew up………went to school…………..in light blue uniform……playing sports, studying, slacking, playing…..then to uni……study, living life without family around me………then work……….and now here I am………making one of the biggest advancements in my life………starting a life with a man I am gonna call my hubby…………..

 

Wow………sounds dramatic………anyway……….time is running out……..better get my stuff done…………

 

Have a great day all!!! And look forward to see some of you soon!!!!!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!

It’s Valentine’s Day again today…………..wow, how time flies!!!!! Last year today I was still at Telstra………probably getting ready to start work………….now here I am……….up here at woop woop!!!!! Started work……….just feeling a bit lethargic at the moment……..so taking some time here and there to write this blog………….Hmm….how did I spend last Vday??? I was at King’s Park with Dave at night………..i think……….yeah………I think so…………..was a simple and quiet one………….sweet memories………….

 

It was a great weekend………..Friday was Dave’s birthday………and we gave him a surprise party at Seizan Japanese Restaurant……but he didnt really looked that surprised although he said he was.......hehehe…….played some games with him in the city………….and BOY!!!!! He is so sporting!!!!! He was supposed to SMS a friend “Today is my birthday. I am happy”……….and his friend must reply within 10 minutes with “Happy Birthday”………..but, he chose a friend, Aaron, who knew about the surprise party……….and he didn’t reply his sms………….so, he had to do a break dance in the city!!!!!! Guess what?!?!?! He did the dance in David Jones!!!!!!!!! He is so sporting!!! Hahaha!!!! I got the shot in my camera……..and I will post in online soon………..when I am free…………….

 

All in all, it was good……..everyone turned up…….although as usual, they were late!!!!! And I gave him his bday present after the dinner………it was in the car boot………..when we got home……….he was like a little boy opening the present one by one!!!!!………..And even went out in the middle of the night to the garden to try out his pressie!!!!! Got a shot of that too………hahahaha ……….. JJJ

 

Oh ya, we collected the car on Friday too………….all’s good……….finally got everything sorted out……….after the stressful week………….

 

Oh my GOD!!!!! I hate the length of my hair!!!!! I wanna chop my hair off!!!!!! I cant stand long hair!!!!!! Cant wait till after April!!!!! First thing I am gonna do after my wedding would be to CHOP OFF MY HAIR!!!!! ARRGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Hot like anything!!!!! Today is 36 degrees too!!!!! Hot and humid!!! YUCKS!!!!!

 

Saturday, we went to play tennis……….. Dave and I also went for a swim after that………….phewwwww…………..i just love swimming!!!!! Drains the energy off me!!!!! After the swim, we took our shower and went to church……….and after church, went for dinner at Karrawarra and then went for a drink at Makan2……….lingered around till about 12 plus I think……….but all’s good………..met up with some friends whom we haven’t met for a long time………..i came to realise that life is just so unpredictable………and that nothing should be looked at from the surface!!!!! Everything we see, at face value, could be something totally the opposite!!!!

 

Sunday was great!!!! Woke up………did house work………..and we went to the driving range……………was good……..but I am sore all over now!!!!! Watched the drama serial at night again..........and cried as usual.............Monday went to work looking like a goldfish!!!!! Today is Tuesday!!!! But I am still sore!!!! Havent played for like more than a year!!!!! Plus the weekend of sports……….my GOD!!!! I am so tired!!!!! Last night watched Supernatural……….and fell asleep till Dave woke me up to go back into the room....……but I was in a daze….and I didn’t even know when he left for home last night till I saw my mobile phone with his missed call and time of call……….at 3plus in the morning...............hehehe........yup!!! I am a pig!!!! OINK OINK!!!!

 

Work is alright………….heaps to do…………..and today is Vday……..Looking forward to meeting up with Dave again after work…………..Hope this week will pass like a breeze!!!!!

 

Have a great week all!!!!! AND HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

Time flies........

 

It has been a mad week at work................consolidating and organising marketing materials.........print ads........etc etc...........i am going bonkers.................driving to work everyday drives me nuts!!!!! 30 minutes on the road..............to work.............30 minutes on the road...........back home!!!!! By the time I reach home..........i am nearly dead and gone!!!!!

Nothing much happening in my life.............last week was a crazy week for me..........Tuesday, volleyball, Wednesday, cell group, Thursday, volleyball, Saturday, tennis, Sunday, tennis....................been a full on week..........coz i have been really stressed out.................so need to release stress in sports!!!!! Glad last week's gone with the wind...........I was like a possessed woman!!!!!! Oh ya, met up with Albert, Mike, Wailing and Mel on Friday night at Fast Ed's...........nothing much.......catching up...........and as usual talking nonsense!!!!!

Monday night..........Supernatural.............and spent some time with Dave........Tuesday after work...............which was yesterday...........went to Saigon for my favourite Saigon Chicken Rice....................and then went home to wash the dirty car.............hiak hiak hiak...........after so long!!!!!! But now its clean!!!!! :):):) Last night, composed songs with Dave..........managed to write one.........but..........errr...............no comments!!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!!! Then watched the korean drama...............which i have already watched 3 times...........no choice...........deprived of good shows here...............as usual.......cried..........hiak hiak hiak!!!!! But luckily my eyes are not swollen today!!!!! Have an interview after work today.............

This morning got up.............at about 3 plus in the morning, realised that my mobile phone battery was dead!!!!! So, went to set another alarm so that I will not oversleep!!!! After waking up.............I couldnt really fall back to sleep again..............kept dreaming as usual............!!!!! Fed up...........coz i dream every single night.........and i can remember every single dream!!!!!!

Anyway, this is just a nonsensical blog.....................better get back to work.................

Cant wait for today to end!!!!!
