just got home from school. ah yes, school has started for me. i have school. and a lousy timetable. everyday i just drag my feet outta my door with my bag...haha. i whine to myself everyday cos i'm just not used to being in school once again. facing people. facing books =) sigh. well, i'm surviving strong and i'm not giving up. *grinz* i have Daddy with me! yay!

today, at school, i managed to meet a friend i wanted to meet for a long time but did'nt get to get him cos i lost his hp number. until recently, before youth camp...i saw him online and i got his no. again =) his name is zhifei! haha.

i met him at School of Business's food court. i only realised he was at the same food court as me today when i read his msg he sent. after that, i begin looking around for him while calling him on his hp. haha. it was so so funny...he was just sitting diagonally across me at another table and our friends were blocking the both of us. yeah...i felt happy that i have a friend who's a Christian in the same school with me. finally!

i was all drenched when i stepped into my home today. when i was walking home, it was raining super heavily. in my mind, i was thinking," sigh. why must i walk in the rain with only an umbrella? it would be better if i had a jacket with me. it would be better... i want..." this whole thing went on for a while. but suddenly, God just spoke. and i realised that i should be content with what i have.

thinking about it, what would have happened if i did'nt have the umbrella? it would have been so much worst. stuck at the MRT station. getting more drenched. whoa. so often that i get mixed up with my wants and needs. especially when i go shopping...heehee. i love shopping but i hate the crowd =) many things that i bought were left unused or just extra things that i don't need. nowadays, when i go shopping...and i become really indecisive of whether should i buy it or not. i ask myself...do i need it? the answer is just there.

today's qt is about love =) so timely. cos i'm back with someone i'm having difficulty working with in school. it says that by serving others, our heart may begin to change and love may come easier. in the family of believers, we treat others the way we want to be treated, with respect and kindness. loving this way honors the e people in the body of Christ, encourages warmhearted understanding and models the heart of Jesus.

i couldn't less agree with the writer =) for me, i gotta rem all these 7 days a week and walk the talk!

Philippians 2:3-4
3Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. 4Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

everything else fades away...when u focus on Jesus.
