somewhere over the christmas

had a good and fun time with shirls wacky dmm peeps on monday, celebrated dewen's birthday as well. we sang our hearts out together at ktv. yea, you guys should check out raph's canto voice! hehe! not forgetting dennis's hokkien close- to- tune too. regular singers like gi and dewen took on the likes of Jay and JJ during that session, while our sweet pastor shirls sung the famous umbrella tune (its hard to find something she will sing in ktv leh). hahah. daniel cheah improvised almost all the tunes we sung. haha! what a hilarious team! :) i enjoyed myself alot. and yes, i want to have my third citadel game with them soon.

officially graduated

yes! i am officially a graduate from RMIT University. i received my final semester exam results and i got a distinction and 3 credits.
truly want to give a big big thank to God, for seeing me through my three years in Uni. i could vividly remembered my first year, i was really struggling with core modules like statistics and accounting that i was even on the verge of withdrawing from the course. yet, God's promises kept me going on. in the last exam which happened a month ago, God intervened and helped me too. i was down with sickness barely a week before my exam and my revision was put to a halt. after regaining energy and health, i was pretty behind time in my revision schedule. yet, at the back of my mind, i know that God has something in store for me. i was relaxed, not feeling all stressed up, i picked up my revision and i studied with the peace that God placed in my heart. it was a miraculous feeling that i has within- that feeling of total peace and trust in God while i study for my first paper. (mind you, one of my poorer subject, prices and market) it was amazing! that peace of mind that God put inside my heart!
wanna thank a few people in my life too. daddy supported me in the school fees. he also encouraged me during my exam periods. pastor jeff for helping me with the school financial matters. shirls, roy, eugene, mei, esmond,ruiz, dewen, livi and many many others who prayed and spurred me on in my studies.
"shuz, welcome to the working world!"

i need fruit of the spirit

last friday's corporate prayer meeting was a home-run. it was an enjoyable time for me, just feasting on worshiping and praying. i felt that God has prepared a feast of worship for me. during the worship time, i was reminded of the verse i prayed on my birthday, Psalms 63:1. indeed, i need God so much. i was very encouraged by claudia's prophesy for me too. its about lengthening my personal time with God so that i can hear more from God about the things He want me to do for Him. i am really excited about it.

today's wfl was a great start. its ironically because i'm tested in my fruit of the spirit as i am teaching the fruit of the spirit class. God always have a way to deal with me. hehe.

**wink wink to my wfl students, blog blog! :)
