Feb Murmur

3:16 am

I am career mapping,

Action planning,

Performance assessing.

Uninspired,

Brain juice dried up,

Eyelids are falling heavy.

*zzz*

Wake up!

Back to work,

Tomorrow's freedom awaits.

*pours another coffee*

My dear sleepy friends.

Cheers.

Forty Winks

Sleep

Recharge

Big day on Thursday:

Two-hour exam,

Uniform fitting,

Workshop till five.

Claiming lots of travel :)

Thank God for tonight's progress,

and tomorrow's study leave.

Good sleep to you!

Life Update [photos]

*whoosh whoosh*

Cleaning away blog dust :)

It’s been a while since I posted some proper photos on my blog, which reminds me how many things have happened in my life in the first month of 2012.

Some of you may already know, I'm finally a home owner! Thank God for the whole journey and a smooth settlement finish. Got the keys two weeks ago so begins the wait to move in. In the mean while I'm keeping busy with Cert IV studies for work and bible in a year.

This year I am using the The Daily Walk Bible to do Bible in a year. I also downloaded the Glo Bible App which is a great little tool. The Media Lens on the app is my favourite, it sometimes has maps, virtual tours videos, artwork and photos related to a particular Bible passage. I really enjoyed browsing the virtual tour on the Israelite camp in the wilderness as described in the book of Exodus. Unfortunately the version I have is the lite version so not all the materials are available :)

Anyway, some photos from my January 2012.

Outdoor Picnic & studying
Beautiful weather & great company

Homeware window shopping
How many items have I bought thus far? 

~ZERO~

Keeping a little resolution to not shop on impulse

But how cute is this mug right!

On the topic of impulse, which is an emotion, Miss K and I have been going through a sermon series on Biblical Emotions by Brian Borgman (GCC). This series consists of 20 sermons and four categories: Biblical Foundations, Sanctification & Our Emotions, Mortifying Ungodly Emotions, and Cultivating Godly Emotions. I'll write a separate blog entry next time and post some of my notes for your reference. If you'd like to get started on listening to the sermons, the link is here.

Coffee fellowship

A lot of you lately
Sorry my beloved tea
I'll return soon

Meeting baby Simon at Jason's birthday dim sum lunch
He's so chubby & cute!

Absolutely adorable & super cuddly

The girls at Harbour Town

Has Miss K found her dream outfit?
I will defend her fashion sense

Tacit collusion of the bows
Ultimate jiemei unity

Whose shoe is who?

Coffee Girls vs Tea Girls
It was a tie
Regardless of what the Coffee Girls may claim

Din din :)
Nom nom nom
more nom

Holiday planning
!!!

Silly AMEX played up
Foregoing our free travel insurance rights

130 days to go (or something like that)

Thanks Miss K for keeping the count down for us

The Bank's offer
Generous much?

Gloria Jeans
Favourite hangout before work

Flat white perfection

30 Years
Or maybe not?

Steamboat & BBQ at EEe
Food & friend meet place

My friend

Now holidaying in Thailand

Sawadeeka

BBQing into the night
Feeding the mozzies
But it doesn't stop us

Learning how to read in Korean

A much needed skill put off for too long
Can't let the jiemeis down

It's here :)

The Dyson came a few weeks ago
Everyone at work has been nagging me to give them a review

Sorry, but I'm not going to play with it until after the exam

It's now sitting by the staircase and no one is allowed to touch it hehe

Looking forward to it though, a little prize

Before the next course begins

Lunch

Finally checked out this place

Got lost in it for 3 hours

Will be back soon :)

CYN Eve dinner

Sun and Chi unite

A dangerous union to cut off the buffet food supply

40 Degrees hot

The upper floor cooks like an oven

Yet there's studying to be done

So Dad heard his daughter's cry

And made this ingenious lunch

Traditional Korean cold noodle

Oz Day Fireworks

Lightening & gunpowder
A sky show from Heaven

An awe day of Oz Day Outreach

Worth the heat battle

To experience God's Hand at work

I will remember this day

How God is in control of everything

The weather obeys His commands

Sneak Peek

First picture

More to come?

Keys!

Cardboard boxes one by one
Packing memories and goodies
Ready for another chapter
Around the corner

Literally!!

The final countdown

Sleep deprived

That's how I am

Stayed up again last night

Jotting down findings at the final house inspection

Tomorrow is the day

I pinch my cheeks

Settlement at noon

I'm a nervous wreck

Lots of running around today

Making phone calls
and dashing to the bank

Getting ready at my end to honour the deal

Today

God's goodness proven once again

The Seller's prompt actions

The Property Manager's initiative

All declare Thy works

The Lord is good

With a strong hand

and with a stretched out arm

His mercy endureth for ever

Two more items

From prayerful to thankful on the list

To God be the glory

Finished Genesis

'I am a Joseph in progress'

May I never fail to rejoice

that 'God meant it unto good'

♥

Give me Jesus

January Murmur

有時候天下一場雨, 

是因為世界需要洗一洗; 

有時候眼睛下雨了, 

是因為心需要洗一洗~

♥

好喜歡好喜歡這幾句話

因為小雨點愛流眼淚

是個名副其實的愛哭鬼

原來是在洗心呀

呵呵～

✿

今天去看了房子

Final Inspection

帶了一疊紙

倒數星期五過戶

有那麼地一些些感覺到

我是這房子的主人

緊張，開心，擔憂，雀喜

五味雜陳

到了門口

看見招牌上貼著 "SOLD"

嘴角忍不住上揚

很是開心

嗯，沒錯

笑～

❁

最後

我心裏深處的話

用詩歌替代

哈利路亚

♪

感謝主

賜我力量面對試煉

每時每刻得以成長

當主引導我

哦我感謝主

在試煉裡學習忍耐

在成長的過程中

學習去關懷

可是這卻要違背自己

將過去的自己拋棄

且要讓聖靈來帶領所有一切

因當試煉來臨

我自己卻要故意不遵行

讓主的慈聲輕易地被我忘記

感謝主，每逢各樣試煉來臨

主必同在遠離錯誤

領我行義路

因主祢應許

在各樣試練中

祢教導我如何接受重新得力量

我們感謝祢賜我生活得更新

縱有萬事纏繞著我

生命更得力

我要感謝主

雖然環境橫逆險阻

我深信必能見主面

因主就在其中

Hello 2012. So excited to see you.

Now that the holidays are OVER and I'm getting back to routine as usual, I am really starting to get excited about many things.

Especially - 3 out 11 stages complete.

You must think I'm mad.
