Drops of Jupiter

Will we ever then be contented with what we have? Or will the choices in our lives make us question the value of what we have? Perhaps like what others got it right when they says that happiness is not about the better things that you can get in life but “the most efficacious way to gain happiness today is for people to focus on the present.”

Life seems vulnerable. We might be hard-pressed on every side, crushed, perplexed, in despair, persecuted, abandoned, struck down, destroyed, but I believe that everything happens for a reason. because faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. ultimately, God is the planner of our lives, He would want the best for us and not bring harm to us.

"Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me." Psalm 54:4

"I called to God, and the Lord saves me." Psalm 55:16

"Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall." Psalm 55:22

"Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint, lead me to the rock that is higher than me. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge to the shelter of your wings." Psalm 61:1-4

Because you have been really really strong, my friend ♥

you taught me many things during this period of time. you shown me your faith and courage.

Hamsters, anyone?

20th Birthday

As i hit the BIG 2-0...

Had dinner with family at cedele. I remember it was a sunday, i went to church and afterwhich i slept alot alot before heading for dinner. though me and my dad debated whether i should drive cause he was scared that i might crash the car in the shopping mall's carpark. but in the end i couldnt pluck up courage to drive in the carpark too, it is just too scary. plus it was my birthday, i wanted everything to go smoothly. hahaha however, it was one of the peaceful day where you spend time with family and myself, which i kind of like it v.much :)

What makes you happy?

My blog is officially 'dead' due to lack of postings. i decided to post something today since it is a sunday and i stayed home all day. I would always tell myself to get off the chair, turn off the computer and head outdoors, but it never happen. I then started thinking, what gives me joy in life (i know, its super-duper random, but that is how my mind works)

1. Visiting my grandmother

most of us would think wah, how can going over to gram's place be a joyful thing. but i really enjoy paying my grandmother visits, gather with my cousins and play with my nephews and nieces. we often spend time watching chinese tv shows (ai) while having a simple dinner together. and sometimes after dinner, we will go to the park downstairs to have a walk. sometimes i really wished i could move in with my grandma!

2. Finishing my work

sometimes just by seeing my projects deadline coming nearer and nearer, i just dont feel like dealing with it. then there are days where i felt slightly more discipline and manage to do something. By the end of it, i would have a huge sense of accomplishment and be pleased with myself, like having one off from the to-do-list.

3. Lazy afternoons

i love love love weekends afternoon where you spend quietly, lying on the couch or bed, reading a book while snacking away or baking something that you always wanted. it just feels like the time is all yours! No rush, just pleasure while soaking in the cool weather.

4. Getting away

The moments of arriving to the airport and boarding the plane would excite me pretty much! the thrill of knowing that you will be away from all the routine and not knowing what to expect. whooooo!

times like this seems hard to come isnt it?
