i want to be beautiful and make you stand in awe.
look i want to be beautiful and make you stand in awe.
look inside my heart and be amazed

The month of December has been so happening which explains the lack of update cause I didnt even have the time to!

1. I attended the 14days of Jesus Bride 3
It was life transforming and i got to know the answers to all life's problem. There is just so much to say if i were to note it all down here.

2. I went to Batam for Mission trip!
My first ever mission trip (: it was fun, exciting, a whole brand new experience. It made me appreciate Singapore more and opened my eyes to see how blessed i am. The kids there was adorable, the fellowship was great, training was tough but nevertheless, God is awesome and I totally love the whole trip! (:

3. CHRISTMAS! :D
Had many celebrations. It's a pity W36B Christmas celebration was cancelled. Anyhow, had a drama performance on 23rd night and we all learn that audience is so important. hahaha. On the actual day, after church, the youth went to watch movieeeee! Went for a little shopping then i went to meet Baby. The Zheng family was having some Christmas dinner together.
So Christmas was eventful yet meaningful. I receive a book as gift from jie minghui and i love it so much (: ahhhhh, beauty! and i also presented myself to God as a gift. It feels so good. yumyum. teehee.

Now, 2008 is coming to an end. It was many new beginning for me. a new beginning in poly, a new identity given- clinton's girlfriend, new covenant was form- faith, grace and miracle, new results that i have never once own, new self, etc. 2008 has been one of the toughest and one of the best. But it is not going to stop here.
2009 is going to be even better! wooohooooo. a year of supernatural, a year i will draw closer to God, a year of revival, a year of breakthrough, a year where i will soar! i am excited, totally elated and anticipating it to come! Counting down and tonning in church tml. woohoo. This only spells A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! (:

look into your heart, the beat goes on

Hello all lovely people out there! (:

As you can see, I changed my blogskin! Although I know my previous one is better but I am really getting bored of it. hahha. Anyhow, I have a couple of good news to share!

Firstly,

JAMES IS BACK !
*SCREAMMMMMMMMMMM*

I was lazing around at home, feeling damn bored, wondering about things, thinking about stuff, suddenly, my phone rang.. SEET.

Seet: hello! where are you
Me: at home.. why?
Seet: wait uh
James: hello!
Me: hello?
James: you know who is this not?
Me: (pause for a while) SCREAM - JAMESSSSSSSSSSSS ! OMG ! YOU ARE IN TOWN? WHY DIDNT INFORM ME. GOODNESS! HATE YOU.
James: excuses 1, excuses2, excuses3 (hahahaha)

Anyhow, we met up. How can I not when they are alrdy at my estate. Totally caught me off guarded can but I am really glad to see not only James but also Seet, Edmund, Jerren, etc. MISS THEM TONS. Used to have supper all the time during Olevel period and after. We kinda stop after someone left. haha. Khairul, I miss you too! Yak till I went home at 12am! goodness. but Faith is a happy girl :D

Secondly,
MALCOLM GOT ME A CAMERA!

nah, He didn't buy one for me of course. He found it and decided to lend me for a long long while. Only will be taking it back when He needs it or what. BUT I AM STILL DAMN HAPPY!(: (:

Thirdly,
I MANAGE TO GET A JOB!

Hopefully nothing go wrong and I am able to work (: All thanks to lynnie (: I have 3months of holiday! Got to earn some money man! If I am not wrong is 5pm/7pm-10pm and I dont have to work during weekends! So shiok! (:

Lastly,
SCHOOL HAS BEEN AWESOME !

I am having alot of fun with my classmates and lessons has been interesting. Thanks to Baby, i doesn't appear to be some frog in the well cause he will always update me about what's happening in the current world. Sometimes forcing me to read the news(:

Here's some interesting things for today's lesson..
Slouching is considered rude in most Northern European areas
Hands in pocket in disrespectful in Turkey
Sitting with legs crossed is offensive in Ghana, Turkey
Showing soles of feet is offensive in Thailand, Saudi Arabia and Muslim nations

i have more to say but i can't really remember. till next time then.

i am currently working on two birthday surprise.
head bursting. brain juice drained. brain cells dead
the preparation is worst! so many things to do!
buy this buy that. make this make that. travel here travel there.
can't wait for it to be over! (:

lets talk about the last few days of NOVEMBER (;

friday after prayer meeting, Baby and i planned to catch a show but we got lost and ended up in Jalan Kayu. HAHA. so we had prata instead. woohoo! yum yum. the night was pretty too. the whole sky was filled with star. very very pretty! (: Baby says we can go star gazing some day :D

that's chewy! and i took this (:

went over to Baby's place early Saturday morning (: for the whole of november, Chewy went to Aunty Flo friend's place to stay. and that day, she finally returned home! i miss her so much (: I played with the puppies together with his daughter. i forgot her name but she's really nice (: in the end, she bought the maltase puppies we all have been trying to sell desperately. Then we had lunch with aunty tira and we sold another puppy! heh heh. caught wild child and Baby couldn't stand it. hahaha. his reaction all so hilarious!

i love him so much cause he didnt want to go out that friday but to make me happy, he decided to bring me out. i love him so much cause he didnt want to watch wild child (he finds it damn gay) but again to make me happy, he decided to watch and suffer throughout. heh heh.

Sunday! met Baby's friends Debbie and Jianing. we played with the puppies and had lot of fun! i like them. heh. they are really really nice (: went Dempsey for dinner afterwhich and home for Man Utd match. woohooo. we won! all thanks to MY Rooney. hee. he is damn cute! (:
