Latest.....
Herrow herrow all......
Good Sunday morning.... :):):) Today for the first time after a long long time.....I got up really early on a Sunday morning.....hehehehe.......have been really really tired.....
Many things happened since I last wrote my journal.....parents came, changed jobs, birthday, etc etc......will just write a brief summary.....hehehehe.......
Parents came in August....and stayed for a month.......it was really cool....home cooked food.....and stuff....my niece and my sister came along too.....and it was so shiok.....coz i didnt have to drive to work......nor do i need to worry about food....and most of all.....i missed them so much!!!!! Most nights....we would end up playing Boggle...my fave word game.....hehehee.....and as usual......i am normally the Boggle queen....HAHAHAHA *laughs smirkly*.....hehehehehe.......
After my parents left....my world....empty......so lonely again.....but dave has always been there for me.......comforting me.....and emotionally there for me....appreciate heaps......when my parents first left......i kept crying the first few days......coz miss them so much......but as time went by....got used to it.....as usual i am a cry baby....HAHAHAHA ::D:D:D:D:D
Then......call it coincidental......but i prefer to call it faith......my job switch.......i was working in the financial institution for a couple of months and i realised that it's not my kind of job......and for a week....i started fasting......and praying......for a direction.......and for a job that is really suitable for me.......and that i would enjoy......about 4 months prior to that......i went for an interview with my current employer......and they offered me a job......but....i rejected that position as i wasnt really interested in the remuneration offered.......then that tuesday after the week i fasted......my current employer emailed me....and asked....if i am happy in my then current job and if i would be keen to go for another interview with a much higher remuneration......then i emailed him back and told him.....ok....i am keen blah blah......and went for the interview......guess what??? he offered me the job on the spot......just shook my hand and said...."welcome aboard"......i was elated.......but i know that it's god's blessing upon me.......and up till today....i am still enjoying my job.......although i would be doing part time studies starting next month again......i like the working environment......and i like the privacy of having my own cubicle.......without anyone being able to look over my shoulders......hehehe....people who know me......will know that i am a person who loves alot of privacy.....heheheheh :):):) and most of all...my boss trusts me alot........:):):)
that is with my working life......
at the moment......we are playing competitive volleyball every thursday nights....at LORDs.....and its the first time this team is playing together.....and we are doing quite alright.......am enjoying the game.......shall take a photo of the team one day....and post them online......we have people from all nationality in our team......which is really cool!!!! aussie, phillipino, malaysian, singaporean, and....cant remember...should be all lah.....and we have a guy who is 1.9m in our team......Hahahaha...he is called the bone shaker aka Chris.....and we have dave, mel, audrey, alfredo, jeff, and myself......enjoy every aspect of the game except that the net is super high......it's men's net....!!!!!!! but still alright lah......just wish it was a bit lower.....then would enjoy more.......hehehehe........
what else can i update????? oh ya....my birthday.....i got fooled big time!!!! by dave!!!! We planned to go for dinner at matsuri......where he told me we should since we went there for his bday......then i wanted to have chilli mussels......then he insisted we went to matsuri......and on that day......mel, wailing, etc didnt even wish me....not to say i really wanted them to wish me.....but was sad.....coz they are my closest girlffriends here in perth......and then....i asked dave "hey, do you think it's alright for me to feel disappointed that they didnt wish me"......then dave with a poker face said "yah.....i think its alright for you to feel disappointed".....he must be laughing his head away in his heart!!!!! coz.....when i reached matsuri.....met a friend yousaf at the entrance....and i asked him "hey....how come you are here? having dinner???".....then when he hugged me and wished me happy birthday.....i stared at dave.....and knew what was going on!!!!! my cell mates were all there......including mel and wailing...!!!! touched......had a great night talking to them.....and then went home......it has been a great bday.....as compared to last year....where i was all alone....and trying to get over certain stuff in my life at that time......which now i have decided to put all behind.......and look ahead....in my life.....

A verse to share:
Proverbs 18:10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower, The righteous run to it and are safe
- no matter how bad a situation you're in now, or how rough the sea may be, hold on tight
- God will show you that nothing is impossible with Him
- He is your refuge and your strength!!!!!

Cambridge St, Wembley
Wow....I havent written for ages!!!!! It has been two months since I last wrote a journal.....Too many things happened in the last couple of months....
A few weeks ago.....church had an errr...something........called the survivor.....and we went for it......it was kinda fun......had heaps of fun....but my "down" times started from there.....my friends came over to meet at my place....before the event.....and they came about 9plus...and when they were in the house....they were talking at normal "volume".....but....my housemate......screamed from upstairs for them to keep quiet.....he was so rude.....and that was sorta the last straw for me....and the nights before that......they kept slamming their room door and the toilet door at night....in the middle of the night....and i am not a fan of loud noises......and also the parking problem...once i went for badminton...and they went down south....so i parked my car behind their car....so they cant actually move out unless i moved my car....but they mentioned that they were gonna be back saturday....and that was friday....so he called...and asked if i could move my car....but i was gonna play badminton and dave and i just reached wesley college......(at vic park for those who know....and i was staying in nedlands)....not very near to drive back...to just mmove the car...when we have just reached......so told them that i will be back about 9plus.....and when i reached home to move the car....their faces were so sour.......and since then....kinda had a bit of unhappiness in them......so didnt really talk much to them......and there was once.....dave parked his car inside....and they parked their car behind dave's car.....and you know what the guy said when we went in to ask if they were going out...so that we could move the car......"can you guys park your cars at broadway fair in future??"....gosh.....i was kinda pissed off.....and told them..."yeah...wont park in the lots in future"......and after that i was thinking to myself....i am paying rent and i am paying bills....and i should be entitled for a parking lot rite??? just didnt understand what did i do wrongly......anyway.....was so pissed off (i know i shouldnt be....but i am just human mann)....and didnt really wanna put up with them anymore.....and started packing my stuff....and started looking for a place to move to......and in the end.....i moved!!!! and here i am in my new place....and i am happy as a bird!!!! :):):) coz i have all the space and privacy i want!!!! i dont have to put up with kitchen sink full of dishes......and slamming of doors at night!!! i am very scared of loud noises!!!! anyway........its cool now.....then a series of events happened to me......car broke down......job opportunity.....etc etc......life was kinda terrible for me......but....through all these.....i realised that i have heaps of friends who really care a lot for me.....and i guess without them....i wouldnt have been able to make it through all these........for all those reading.......you know who you are!!!! thank you!!!! dave was through it all with me!!!!! not once he complained about things he had to help me do.....and really appreciate all that he has done....and is doing for me!!!! have to admit that i sometimes get really impatient...especially when everything is going wrong!!!!....and yeah......not good lah.......so kinda flared up sometimes......which is bad!!! learning learning.......hehe....*blush*.......
with regards to my spiritual life.....i have to admit that i started questioning God.....why all these had to happen to me at the same time.....and i was really down.....but God has been faithful through all.....and i learnt alot through all these.......to have faith.....and to learn to lean on Him more......i realised the mistakes that i have done......i realised the meaning of true friendship....i realised the meaning of love!!!!! and that when He closes one door....many more doors will open!!!!! He always makes things happen for a purpose.......
Psalm 49:5 For God shall redeem my soul from the power of the grave, for He shall receive me.............even in extremely difficult circumstances, when we takke our eyes off our own problems and look to help others with theirs, our despair and self pity are replaced with God's joy and peace..........
Judges 6:14 Then the Lord turned to him and said "Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?".........courage is not being afraid, but taking action when you are afraid...true courage is when a person chooses to take a difficult or even dangerous course of action because its the rright thing to do......courage is looking beyond yourself to what is best for others.....source of courage is the holy spirit our comforter who remains by our side to help us......when we welcome Him into our lives, and He compels us to do something, we can confidently trust Him to be rightt there beside us....helping us to get it done......
anywya....my journal is kinda jumbled....i dont know....what i am going on and on about.....but yeah.....it has increase my faith through all these i have gone through.....and God has placed heaps of great people in my life.....melissa, reuben, chris, hendra, wailing, etc etc.......and of course....not forgetting davo!!!!!
ok lah....i think i have blabbered alot already......more to come......will start writing again....so stay tuned.....
have a blessed sunday all!!!!
