"Not that I have already
obtained all this,
or have already been
made perfect, but I press
on to take hold of that for
which Christ Jesus
took hold of me.
Brothers, I do not
consider myself yet
to have taken hold
of it. But one thing
I do: Forgetting what
is behind and straining
toward what is ahead,
I press on toward the
goal to win the prize
for which God has called
me heavenward in
Christ Jesus.
" -philippians 3:12-14

HEH. beached for less than an hour with no sun and with FULL ANTICIPATION OF ENCOUNTERING A WATER SPOUT, build sandcastles on sand, and then rain (yay) foodcourt in bikini -..- eat eat... dual-biked ...ah thanks to the swatch volleyball tournament there were alot of hunks!!!!! wooo!

    err.. i just realised i cant resize photos on this lappie... /cry

    sunday

    morning evangelical service, laptop broke down, mourn cos my portfolio, song recordings and10000000 photos are missing, and it was bad cos i was going to back them up later that day or a few days... tuition cancelled cos jm had her chinese o's! ...rested at home cos week was so tiring...went out fer dinner...go home and slept summore...then...work in the morning -..-

    monday

    ben picked me up at work and happily showed off himself right in the middle of my company's frontgate and colleagues were happily chasing me off cos "my boyfren is waiting outside" .

    "GOT MORE SUBTLE ONE OR NOT?! " haha. next time...hide in the bushes can? :p introduced him to Sharon and Mandy :)

    satisfied his craving by eating the wonderful fish noodles featured in my other blogpost in may.

    ..and then ...pirates of the carribean. aiya why no one tell us got scenes after the credits . /cry
    but we watched the 8.20 show..so we were already @_@ when the show finished..reached home at 12am... washed up ..slept/napped..

    tuesday

    then work again... was quite upset my pay wasnt in so i couldnt afford to get the groceries for steamboat...ate the new pizzahut special meal! it's really worth it! 4 wings, 4 cinnamon sticks, 2 pan pizza... olive didnt taste that bad after i shunned it for 8 years, crashed at ben's place cos he was going off to scotland the next afternoon...fell asleep early tho. haha. sorry..

    wednesday
    bad sleep, so went off to work rea,lly sleepily and earlier than usual.. didnt have tuition with ame/jon cos i was feeling ill...

    thursday

    no one wanted to tan with me, so me and binu anid wawa went to vivo for crazy shopping! ah... the GSS wasnt very cheap in the end, but i did buy 3 pieces of clothes :D left house at 1215 reached home at 915. haha! jelly legs. glad yer safe in London.

    friday

    work, com kept starting up and restarting. yay. so fun. haha. nearly killed my com cos i tot it restarted and lost my work in the midst of it... haha if yer sitting in front of me you'll hear alot of "ERGGHHH!! ""argh" "aiya: "shit" "umm" .. and thanks steven for being so patient in helping me with my com ! :) dont feel very "lucky"today, (not that i believe in luck) but i did drop my gold and silver coins into a dirty hole underneath the fruit stall while purchasing fruit juice ..so my fruit juice costs 5 bucks instead of 2.50, and it started raining on the only day i didnt bring an umbrella, and the super super long escalator up outram NEL mrt broke down. so it was a long and tiring day.. and the thought of my laptop just makes me sigh....

    haha the finance room say there's smtg weird with the toilet..so i made them hurry leave for home cos they always take their own time by saying ...later the toilet auto flush or tap auto-on ah! then they hurried and left ! YAY! plan worked! :p

    rushed down to popular to get materials to decorate Jericho for shalom's Sunday's thingy... different ppl are going to play pop tunes /jazz music from 3 pm to 4pm! all are invited la!

    jericho youth centre : blk 241 bishan st 22 basement :D

    then rushed down to s.a. worship sharing, rushed back to prepare the materials, tomyum cup noodle fer dinner......... and cheng teng! haha.. -..-

    relaxed myself with naruto before i embarked on listening to john piper (that is important).

    4 hours of john piper, 4 hours of serious contemplating, 4 hours of realising i'm a lifetime away from perfection .

    perhaps it's the way that so many ppl around me are losing this race, or the things that im attracted to now that makes the finishing line look further and further away.
    but it's good that i'm so much more aware of it now, was too absorbed in my funland, i'll need You and you partner me on this journey though :)

    am exchanging cold jokes with my elder brother now. HA HA /cold. you dont wanna hear what we're saying. /cold.

    i dont want my mum to work so hard :( sigh. how much harder must i work so that we can make ends meet?

    i've been being so emo nowadays i had the urge to buy 2 black tables, racks and noticeboard. -..-

    tuition @ 9 am! better get ready to sleep soon... nite to You , you , you , you, you , you , you ,you (ah we get it )haha.

    GOODNITE
