Happy Chinese New Year! (yeah, there are a few more days to go)
:)

Here's a post for those who's been expecting one/some. (Though it may really be boring, my life isn't considered interesting. Just updates for my OWN record, so you can just not bother reading k!)

Visiting was all right, satisfactory amount of hong baos!
Good food, I'm going to grow fat(ter), but it's okay. I'll try exercising.

Fifteen already, sometimes it's hard to believe how fast time flies, but yes, we all grow older by the day don't we. School's been good I suppose, just alot of homework I have difficulty doing. Teehee.
Of course I have wonderful friends who give me all their support when I need it. I think I've been getting bossier lately (hehe, like getting Anisha to follow me to the toilet, or staff room or canteen when I want to in the morning/recess) which is bad for me, my health, and people around me, but oh well!

I've been very into using my grandpa's camera (slr) to take photos of my little cousins, all the candid shots are lovely! If I find the time, I'll post some up :)
Had a small birthday celebration with a mango cake on the 8th (it was the one and only cake left for sale in bengawan solo, there was this whole range of kueh lapis though, haha!) and I guess that was good.

Alyssa and Annabeth are back from UK (Nottingham)! (For those who don't know who my 2 lovely cousins are, 140407) They've grown cuter and prettier! Hahaha, maaan, had 6 cousins running up and down the house yesterday, explaining why it wasn't much of a homework day eh. So I stayed up until 0330 to just study for physics (with Wee Teck Uncle - free physics tuition!), waking up at only 0930 despite all the noise from 4 kids who were awake. Missed church today, attended my cousin's (mum's side) first month celebration. He's really cute! I'm currently obsessed with taking photos of him, 'cos I've seen him once a week since he was born on the 22nd - and you can see how he's growing. His facial features are changing (but still as cute!) I know all kids are cute though. Probably why my aunt suggests I work towards being a paediatrician. I love kids! So this weekend has been a fun-filled weekend with alot of family time.

HOWEVER, it has been an unconstructive weekend at the same time. I still have much work left, but of course, thank God for the time I've been given to come together with family.

I love Family and Friends
I ♥ School I ♥ Homework I ♥ Studying
I know psychoing myself works (for the last three), but actually I enjoy school quite a bit, though I get really fed up when I can't complete work or studying. It definitely pisses me off, but I've been trying to hold my patience. Of course, I can't do any of that without my Father in Heaven, and I know I have to 'be still and know He is God'.
I've been forgetting that lately, but Dad reminded me, again and again, when I just break down because of stress from school.
I can't bear to even spare a minute to help him with something, and that's really bad. Unsure what has gotten over me, but I pray that one day when I look back at this post, I'll know I've grown physically, mentally and spirtually.

What does love exactly mean? I think love... when God could have used magic words to remove the nails from Jesus' hands/legs, He didn't because He loved us so.

On the way to Ah Yi's place today, I was discussing religion with mum. I told her I'd like her to be a Christian (no, no force at all) because I want her to be saved. She asked if this is what people of our religion do, always trying to convert others. I personally believe evangelism is important, and I truly had no answer for my mum after that. Just silence. I'll know one day, when God touches me. And then, I hope the entire family'll get to know Him.

Our God's a big God and there's nothing He cannot do.

Photos another time! :)
Of very adorable little kids.
Now it's back to work (I've spent approx 1/2hour slacking :( )
