A camera and guitar - that was what i had with me the past hour.
Tried, for the first time, to record myself singing and playing christian songs:) I dont have the confidence to post them up here though.
And mum had to massage my right foot just now as i have injured it while running for the bus this afternoon. Couldnt exert all my weight on that foot and was limping very slightly in school today. Hope it'll recover real quick, for the much anticipated CNY is around the corner!
Anyway, will upload photos of the marvellous weekend- Mabel's birthday party @ Sentosa and Wendy's superb dance concert once i've the time. A pity no photos was taken during the mini birthday surprise Wanting and I threw for ciyuan on Sunday!
I was so excited that i picked up the courage to call you, butyou were busy.
Baby photos! /// 1:12 AM
Good thing i'm not Cinderella, for my simple green top, cardigan and knee-length skirt would have turned to rags...
Got home slightly after 12 as a few of us stayed back after prayer session to hang up
our theme for this year - "Be Willing to Serve". I've always enjoyed spending time with my churchmates, as I get to know more about the little happenings in their lives fortnightly. Whether it's topics that can get us chuckling with madness or struggles that elicit words of comfort, i appreciate this time together as we are able to go beyond the surface of our daily activities and really pour out to one another, on a different level.
It's getting late and im blabbering
nonetheless i'm really thankful for prayers and the circle of close friends, who are able to pray together and encourage one another on our spiritual journey.
Somehow, it reminds me of a message that Joel sent recently.
'Dont ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.'Love these 2 sentences cuz it serves as a good reminder, a cup of warm tea during a chilly weather. Sometimes, when I get tired trying to satisfy comply fulfil enjoy lead, it just drains me out mentally and emotionally. And I'll sulk and complain and ponder. And it's only then that I'll realise, that despite all the whirlwind of emotions and racing thoughts in my head , there's still something inside me that believes. A flame. It burns. Unyielding; its wax rooted deep.
And deep it goes,
as out there,
Someone else believes in me.

What i really wanna say /// 8:02 PM
To: Ciyuan
Sorry for not being able to celebrate your birthday with you today but i'm sure you'll still have a great 21st. Thinking of you and wanting always reminds me of the many fantastic memories we had in the past and then there's always the urge to dig out all our primary school letters from my drawers too! Well, enjoy your special day today! I'll see you real soon:)
Love,
Joy
