| The waiting game.For those of you who are currently waiting and praying for something but have yet to see the results/fruits, this is for you :
We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.
Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God's Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our condition and keeps us present before God. That's why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.
Romans 8:24-27 [The Message]
When God says wait, you wait. Do not rush into things. Something good will not be good when the timing is not right. At the end of the day, you obey and you wait.
period.

| Blessed Fathers' Day =)
Pastor William once said (and has always been telling me and the others) : "The first quality/requirement you should find in your future partner is that he HAS TO BE at least two times better than your father. You wouldn't want someone that is just half as good as your father right?"
That, coming from someone who is full of wisdom. Makes sense. No doubt about that.
Today, looking at my father, remembering how he has brought all three of us up, with self-less love, never allowing us to worry about anything else but our current priority -studies. I must say that HE has indeed set the standard high. 
Blessed Father's Day daddy, thank you for being my inspiration, my hero. Can't wait to spend more time with you and mummy end of the year =)
Always your princess, SaM

| day 10 of winter, 80 days to go...Haven't blogged for awhile :)
I was supposed to post an entry today with my boy Nicholas' picture. However, plans changed, Nick's dad called me in the morning to cancel the 1-hr session I was supposed to have with him, as he is not feeling very well. Will not be seeing him for awhile, until after my exams. Hope that he will still remember me then!
Last friday was my friend Lilly's birthday. Her BIG 21st!!! Was a MEMORABLE one for me as well because that was the day my dear Nokia 5310 Express Music betrayed me and died. (lol sounds so wrong). Before leaving my place, the battery level was only 1 block empty. I tried calling my friend, she did not answer her phone, got into the voice mail, tried to hang up, couldn't, my phone HANG-ed. There goes my credit, and battery power. I had to remove the battery and reset my phone. Great. After 15 minutes (I think), my contact list finally loaded and I managed to call my friends.
Anyhow, the dinner was great, though it only started 1 hour later (a supposedly 8pm start). My friends gave me a new nickname that night - Energiser Bunny -_- omg. Just because I kept laughing for the whole night (which was not very true). I guess I was just happy because I rarely get to spend time OUT of uni with my friends from uni. ok fine. I am very happy when I am with people who make me happy =)
Before the night ended, a quite traumatic moment arrived. I looked at my phone, and it was DEAD. Battery died. OH GREAT. It was 11pm. Dinner just ended and I just wanted to call my brother so he could pick me up from the train station otherwise I would have to walk home from the train station alone. The thing was, my phone was not working and I am soooo bad at remembering phone numbers here. Well, maybe I just never bothered to remember them. There I was, trying soooo hard to recall my brother's number. A friend suddenly had this brilliant idea of using her phone with my SIM card instead. Why didn't I think of that??
Almost everyone at our table was staring at the phone and waiting for the contact list to appear. THEN, I remembered that most of my numbers were saved in THE PHONE itself. Bummer. Yes, I tried NOT to panic. Focused all my attention to remembering brother's number.....remember....remember...low and behold, I actually managed to get a set of 10 numbers that sounded familiar. So I tried dialing the numbers with my friend's phone, someone picked up....and it was my brother!THANK GOD. PHEW man... I was so close to giving up trying and just resort to walking home. It's just a 12 min walk from the train station. No big deal. However, I was surprised by the reaction I got from my friends. They were like :"NO WAY" , " Are you crazy? It's almost midnight! Please don't freak me out".
I didn't expect that coming out from them. lol. But it's really nice to have such thoughtful friends who really care ( more than I do) about myself. Thanks guys =)
After that night, I have decided never again to use my nokia anymore. Am currently using brother's Palm Treo. thankyou Go Looks very business-like, certainly not feminine at all. But who cares, it's a good phone and it's SMART. 
 Birthday girl =)
 A "mistake" turned into ART
More pictures of that night on facebook.
Weather is getting crazily cold here. Makes me feel like hiding at home for the whole 2 weeks until exams!
study mode : ON
no stress no stress...
So be content with who you are, and don't put on airs. God's strong hand is on you; he'll promote you at the right time. Live carefree before God; he is most careful with you.
