Knife & Tray Hunt

Sometimes online shopping would be soo much better!! Not to mention convenient. Its like you're not sure which shops sells the item you want cheaper therefore... me and Eunice were like walking to 3 different stores about 3 sub-streets apart from each other. Fine.. Two main street apart from each other. But it was still quite a walk.

And funny thing is when you found out that the first shop was cheaper, you don't quite have the energy to go there anymore. Not to mention that shops here close SUPER early so its really not worth making the trip even by public transport.

What annoys me even more was that whenever we found the perfect one, its either the last one or dented or later found out there was another cheaper one. Aaargghh... N because of varities on brands (knives) it got so hard to choose. Trinity? Satin Touch? Then another I forgot.. Aiyooo... Headache ar.. But whats done is done.

As for the pan.. Looks like another day we shall buy. Aih.. Then found out oso that although "Little Penguin" is a brand from Aussie (i think), its like not many people knows it. OR its so far available in only ONE alcohol shop. Sad dun u think?

Well thats that for today. Soo tired.. Had only 4 hour of slp and at church was listening to pastor teach us chinese words coz its CNY eve and then later celebrate his birthday.

Extra:
Just slight xtra news on that. I don't understand why sooo many people has to pray and make the congregation wait for them to say their looong prayer and thanks. If u wanna pray for the pastor then go right ahead and make it short and straight to the point then give others to pray. Aih... If not do it with a group of people and not involve the whole congregation lar.. Then somemore some people were crying.. He isnt leaving or some scary situation!! *face palm* Its just a birthday and u're not even blood related~ Its really very strange... First time first time...

Eunice, My New Housemate for 2012

Yum yum~ Just finish eating our dinner!! Green Thai Curry, self-made ^^. We did sooo much shopping too just to cover for the next 5 days. Goodness.. Never carried soo much things before. But yet after split oso realized was very much worth it.

I never had a housemate before, this will definitely be an experience~ Hearing other peoples views saying how there are quarrels at times or arguments.. I hope we have none or be ok. Not sure what can or cannot do either. Oh well~

At least few things for sure~ She is just as an adventurous eater as I am as long as we don't slaughter or eat tamed/rare animals meat. Haha! Or.. basically thats it~! Can't wait for the real student life to start i guess. I'm so excited to bake and experiment cooking with her.

Sadly didn't get to do this last year as I was living alone. Ah well~ C lar~

With Trials Comes Fruits --- Prov 3:1-12

My son, do not forget my teaching,
but keep my commands in your heart,
for they will prolong your life many years
and bring you prosperity.

Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will win favour and a good name
in the sight of God and man.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and He will make your paths straight.

Do not be wise in your own eyes;
fear the LORD and shun evil.
This will bring health to your body
and nourishment to your bones.

Honor the LORD with your wealth,
with the firstfruits of all your crops;
then your barns will be filled to overflowing,
and your vats will brim over with new wine.

My son, do not despise the LORD’s discipline
and do not resent his rebuke,
because the LORD disciplines those he loves,
as a father the son he delights in.

Loads Of Unpacking

After 3 days of lugging, am settling into my new apartment with my new housemate~ So exciting!! We have been walking from our old apartment to the new one just backpacking, trolley-ing and luggag-ing at the same time. Finally today, we have completed 98% thanks to her cousin and his wife.

Not long after that, the horror of looking at our living room being SOOO FULL with hardly any space to walk.. We gradually unpack and organised our things. Phew~ It was like from 630pm all the way up to 230am. Of course we had dinner at 10pm for a short while then continued.

Well, this is my first time really handling my own shifting and it was quite... interesting. Haha! Well, was good exercise~ Now gonna end this and take my shower! Phew~!

Most amusing sentence I received today... "U guys decorate it so cutely!" Haha~ it = apartment

My First Plan/Hope For 2012 Sem1

Its been 3 days or so thinking and asking what can I do this semester. Don't wanna repeat last year where I went all out at the beginning then... *poofed* at the end.

Nono~ Seeking and seeking and maybe not seeking hard enough for what discipleship and evangelism truly mean. And the more I seek, somehow the more answers I get!! Its suppose to narrow down!! Why is it increasing??

Anyhow, what hit me most is for this sem, I wanna see students "Enjoy & Have a Memorable Uni Life". How to do this ler? Why ler?

Probably everyone has their own plans and I myself cannot be for certain how many would join. But I dislike the idea of JUST STUDYING/ASSIGNMENTS in Uni. And since being a uni student, its obviously clear to me how preparing dinner can sometimes be a hassle. Should I book the lounge for a number of people to study there and have dinner/titbits? Then again, where am I gonna get the money? Would it be troublesome as there might not be any internet?

Going through so much trouble, I probably have to discuss with my parents and building manager too. Yikes? But for me.. I cant study in a library.. I dunno how many out there feels the same but you wont see me studying in an area where I can see many stressed out/serious looking faces. Haha!

Well~ This coooould come in as outreach? Really need to seek more on this. Then again, I doubt my parents wan me to bring trouble to myself each time. Hope they dun think I attract trouble coz.. looking back I probably really do bring it upon myself unconsciously. Heh?
