Actual time: 0237am thurs



Surely am v thankful for today-wednesday :') I only recall catching approx 3++ hrs of sleep but its v amazing how I managed to pull thru the entire day. I was just murmuring to myself and claiming that 'the joy of the Lord shall be my strength' and true enough, God never ever, fails. Feeling gd' to have pulled thru' trng this evening and I thought my swim has improved by quite a fair bitttt praise the Lord!!

Earlier on, alvin shared w ray and I a rly goood song! The tune sounds familiar, I'm certain I heard it somewhere before but anw, the lyrics are rly rly goood soooo you could youtube it and have a hear to yourself ^.* It's 'My hope' sang by paul baloche.

Nothing will change. If all Your plans are wrong, Your love stays the same. Your light will guide me through it all, I'm hanging on, I'm leaning to You.
Nothing can reach, the end of Your faithfulness. Your grace is with me, thru' every shadow, every test. I'm hanging on, I'm leaning to You.

I don't know where You'll take me, but I know You're always good. My hope is built on nothing else. Than Your great love, Your righteousness. I will not walk another way. I trust Your heart, I trust Your name.I'm holding on, I'm holding on to You.

Boohoo :'( Sooo... it was quite sad to miss IJ Fiesta 2 years in a row but thank God sis made me feel better by commenting that this year's one aint as fun as usual. Maybe because alll the fun people have already left IJ causing the atmosphere to change a lil' or sthg but nonetheless, IJ will always be IJ in my heart-the besttttt part of my growing up was found there :') Heehee, no IJ girl can ever, ever, ever say poly life's alot better because trust me... (not that I've anything against my polyfriends) IJ friends are an entirely different kinda friends. The bond, and whatsnot we share, are simply priceless ^.*


This was taken on the night of fiesta because I realised... how much I miss the IJ uniform so so much :( Srlyz the most comfy stuff to be in until the weather gets ridiculously hawt on random days!!!!

So over the past weekend, we had TAS Sg Aquathlon held at ECP and even tho I didnt do as well as I expected myself to... I figured out I shouldnt feel sad or anything because I can only tell myself I'm gna improve and future and put these thoughts into actions. The weather was rly hot that afternoon and our wave only started abt 1145,causing us to hit transition abt 12 and setting off to run till 1230++, it was insane. I kept hydrating myself orally and taking wtv water my hand could snatched to splash all over myself but the sun still soaked me dry so ever quickly. I just kept murmuring 'Jesus is my Victory, this race is my bread' and praise the Lord, before I know it... everything ended.

I really gotta thank the Lord for carrying me through this race because it was so hot... I was so close to giving up!!! Thank you Jesus for my parents. I was so so so touched to see them down that afternoon, supporting me from the start till the end. My mom was crazily burnt by the end of the entire race hahahhaa.


Cheeers to the tri team for clinchin champion in both the male and female for the Adiv cat :') We're gna get better and better yeah?

Blessed mothers' day to all the coolio mommiez out there! But my mommy is the coolest! Heehee may the Lord continue to grant her wisdom and favour in everything she lays her hand and foot on. May her youth continue to be renewed like the eagle's and the remaining months of 2012 continue to be one of, unceasing fruitfulness! Mommy, I love you so much and I know you're reading this c: Stay ever cool, fun and hip yes? Mwackz.
Many woman are noble, but you surpass them all. Proverbs 31.


My life... (altho many seem to repeatedly call it mundane) has been a rly funfilled one. I think it's rly a privilege to be able to train anytime I wish and than get home to revise and study a lil' before hittin the crib and then repeating the exact same thing over and over again. Treasuring such simple life before I eventually graduate in 3-4 years time, enter the wrkg force and never enjoy this any longer :'( Boohoo.

God's been so so good, He never fails. I see His goodness in my life, evidently. How I manage to compete my tutorials, understand what I'm learning in class... it all has gotta be Him. Today's sermon was about God's strength being made perfect in our weakness. About how His grace is sufficient for all our needs. And this message came timely because I'm starting to feel several workload piling up but I know... He's gna carry me through this season of my life. Relying entirely on Him this week with TAS over the weekends and Bintan triathlon the following week :-) It's not gna be about winning the race but more so... about witnessing His strength in every leg of the race. I don't know how I'm gna complete the cycing leg in Bintan since I havent cycled in ages but He does!

Meet our uprising marine coastguard. Forever lame friend.


Blessed week everyone! Remember to put Jesus at the centre of it all. And when you do that, everything else falls in line ^.*

Actual time: 1222am Monday



'When darkness seems, to hide his face, I rest on His unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil.'
'Christ alone, Cornerstone
Weak made strong, in the Saviours' love. 
Through the storm, He is Lord. Lord of all'

It just makes me smile, to know that my Daddy God loves me so much that in my every high and every low, He's never ever gna let me go. Matthew 7: If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him. My earthly folks' showers of love upon me have been so ever evident in my life the past few weeks. I don't know how much more thankful I can be. I even told mom I won't be working this semester because I can hardly cope with my work and trainings and she was so sweet to tell me, it's okay, with a smiley via imessage. Being unable to work means they gotta finance my unnecessary, unreasonable wants this semester - which I feel kinda guilty for sometimes twas, rly praying that I won't sucuumb to tempations to wanna buy material things which I don't need :(

On an additional note, daddy's been the best father I can ever ask for. I've been rather cooped up with gatherings for my bday celebrations and triathlon trngs but he never, never ever fail to pick me up at ungodly hours. And I mean every single night. Really ty Jesus for sucha father :-)

The past month rly taught me to treasure my family ^.* because of all the crazy hectic trng regimes one after another, it rly made me just wanna laze ard at home, in their presence. I love family times and I really apologize if I've been missing out on gatherings with friends :( I know it's terrible but... sigh you'll never understand how tiring I feel travelling all the way to town.

This week is gna be a blessed week in schl because His presence shall follow me everywhere I am. My verse for the week: Ephesians3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. Amen, claim it for yourself too!

Actual time: 0135am sunxx



I'm gonna get this done quick and brief because I'm feeling so soo drained out but... I don't know how else or where else I can express the kinda thankfulness my heart is feeling. It's pwetty hard for me to keep it in my heart and 'savour' (yeah... you get the dr...i..f..t) how thoughtful my friends and family have been. Mom's deep asleep, preparing her physical body for church later twas I've absolutely no one to talk to :(

My days have been so so blessed so so favoured, ty Jesus for every single encounter in schl that have made me felt so loved :-) please don't judge me... but I cried whilst dng calculas and I rly just wanted to give it up but it was v v timely that the song 'thats what faith can do' began playing on my playlist. That moment, I stopped crying becasue I was so freaking stressed but because I know with Him, all things are possible! He's gna be the center of my calculas journey, He's my wisdom!

Moving on, thanks so much every single one of you who went the extra mile celebrating my bday together with me :) For the uncaught for surprises, and pwetty bday cards :) Tyvm the best best team ever- Team triathlon, my irreplaceable family, the poly classmates, the 14, the cellgroup, bestest ever UBF aaron and gabb, and lastly cheryl mande for luring me to the mbs room for the surprise. Today probably marks the last day of my 20th bday celebration, feel so blessed being able to spend it with the people I hold the closest to my heart :-) I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

During arrow earlier on in the evening, pastor Gabriel asked a very thought provoking question. It went sthg like 'Do I just thank the Lord and praise Him in my ups? Or do I still do the same in my downs?'. It rly spoke to me... and during my journey home from mbs, (sorry @sarahmehmeh I rly don't cant stayover because I havent been home early since monday and I don't wanna set a bad example to my younger sister) I finally figured out and have my own answer. Think about it, it's rly worth the time ^.*

I gotta hit the sack now, toodles and I'm all eggcited for svc in 7hrs' time, woohoo!
