Come Rescue Me

Dear God,

how are you doing today? do you hear our songs like the angels' melodies? are you rejoicing or are you sad because there's still only a handful that would make it to your kingdom? Lord, why do I say I try so hard to bring people to your church but people got opinions, got questions, got emotions (they don't love you God)?
Lord, why do I say I try so hard, hoping one day you'll come rescue me?

God, i'm not perfect and I always fall short of being worthy. I say i've given my best but you know i haven't. why do people run away when your name is mentioned? is it cause the name strikes fear? or is it because you're like the friendless classmate throughout school?

Am I in your book God?

i'd write this letter, seal it and call on the postman. i see him out my window every morning when i wake to go to school God. But will he be there when all's said and done?
You're the yeast that makes a bread grow - You give the increase Lord. but i'm the baker, and the bakery's been shut for too long.
i've been trying to save this 1 soul Lord for so long now. Why do i say i try so hard - when i havent?

In your eyes we're all sinners Lord even when I say i'm trying so hard. but i'll stand for you God, and fall for anything. let me know that you understand. i'm no superstar and the spotlight's not on me.

God? When are you coming to take me home? I'm waiting to hear from you.

<3,
most unworthy

Meet Teabag

Hello,


this is my new found friend.

Animals, they wont cheat on you, though sometimes they do get a little rough. but they never hurt you where the heart is. they're your joy after a long day at school or work. they greet you, and they make you feel wanted (where food is concerned).

meet teabag.


she hasn't replaced the spot where April has taken but she's a beauty.

Friends,
if you know me well enough, you know I NEVER liked cats. but teabag is different. Very different. Its hard to express it in words, so just meet her.

Curiosity killed me. i now like you kitty cat.

loves.

The Fallen are the Virtuous

Friday night was crazy. No wait, actually it was 2am Saturday morning.
Well, you might ask what I was doing so late walking around. Ought to be in bed getting beauty sleep right?

No.

Students do not get beauty sleep. They don't get sleep. Period.

So yes, most of you might have known by now. I fell down the stairs. Backwards. Hitting my head and my precious back on the steps. Pretty much walking like an egyptian mummy now.

Excellent posture.

Thanks to auntie Carol for her koyok and counterpain. I should be up and about in no time.

Anyhow, this is one joke i really like.

At Sunday today....
Jon Chan, "Aiyah, when Jasmine falls, its a terrible thing. but when Grace falls....she falls with grace."

ok, lame eh.

and and, this one was from Jason

"Wah, you were trying to save your laptop i see. good good. see doctor need about $100. new laptop need about $2000"

and i must add.....losing laptop with your assignments in it. PRICELESS.


So much for telling ONE person i fell down the stairs.

And We'll Make it Velvet Brown

Last night, Dawn decided to dye her hair, and got the help of wonderful housemate Brit to help.

So what's leftover, is my really blackened comb (which I know I will have no use of anymore), velvet brown hair for Dawn (it was supposed to be black dye. hm..), and................. photos!

Ta-da!

Mahjulah Singapore-ah

I am still very much Singaporean. And I definitely miss home.

The food at least.

Laska, chicken rice, calbee prawn crackers (the cheapest i found so far is A$1.80!), yong tau foo, fishball noodles, fried rice (from across the road where I live), BAK KUT TEH, ice kachang, SEASONS ICE LEMON TEA, mom's cooking (although sometimes i can cook better :p), mee goreng (the one I had the other day was like noodles with curry powder. yuck), PENG KUEH, TEH PENG (the milk tea here is horrible), nasi briyani ....
Basically everything at a hawker centre. I miss seeing hawker centres.

And I miss talking to people so much in Singlish. I have to be 2-mouthed here - Speak angmohish to the angmohs, and singlish to the singaporean babes.

Last Thursday was National Day. So while you people back home were busy celebrating the day off, so was I. but it was belated for me, cause my celebration was on Friday.

But but...it was awesome.

Hm?!

Hah! Multi-cooker working its magic

And the people who made it a blast
