In The End, Close Is All There Is

It never occurred to me that what I am doing right now, its practically the future of what CF is. Not to sound dramatic or "I'm sooo important" or what, but yea. I need to look beyond the pesky little things that I, in my nature, blow out of proportion and learn to look at the bigger picture. I remember telling my seniors how "I hope one day when I become a senior myself, I want to be a blessing to my juniors just like how they have been a blessing to me".  Hello, does that ring a bell.? You have the farewell card on your desk to serve as a good reminder for starters. 


Yes, it really is depending on how I choose to look at things now. If I choose to look at it negatively, I won't even bother to keep whatever traditions that we have alive and I can easily and selfishly be throwing away the things that those before me worked so hard for. 


OR


Of course it is easier said than done, but I can choose to overlook it. Those before me, they went through what I am going through, maybe even worse. But hey, they carried on the legacy. 

My choice - the latter.

I See It Now

*When the darkness closes in Lord, still I will say, blessed be your name*
Its comforting to know that in times of crisis, you trust the Lord even more and you sing your heart out because you know things will be well in His time. The best way that practice has ended thus far :-)

First real post in a while. After one slap of reality in the face almost a month back when all of us were told that ROC2 will be extended to January, I took the second one surprisingly well. I somehow could only see great things to happen from this. ROC2 will no matter what, come to all of you live on the 3rd of January 2011 if you're wondering.

Personally, I feel "big" and "epic" news like this which we do not expect to hear (especially when you are 2 weeks or so away from the big day) makes me trust God even more. I don't know, maybe its because there really is no other option but to trust that He will open doors for us. Its sad to say that I need huge slaps to really know He's there and to put all trust in Him.


I am thankful that I kinda took the news well. I even feel positive bout it. I looked at this as a time for me and also all the members of production of ROC2 to really unite and know and believe that we are in this together. IN THIS TOGETHER.!!! It is also an opportunity that I believe God has given me to encourage the others who are in this as well. Encouraging others can also make you feel good. Before this I was all like "Come la, encourage me la. Why wanna make me feel so bad, its not that hard to say something nice to me..". Yea, I was like that desperate and selfish. But now, I want to make others feel good, even if I might feel like crap at times. 

The big day is now a mere two weeks away, and with news like this I really feel so motivated to make this event great. I couldn't see the light at the end of tunnel before this and pretty much up until lately, but now with such a huge barrier right in front of us, I can see the light burning and shining brightly instead. Therefore to my brothers and sisters who are doing this together, lets ask God to help us see that this is a blessing in disguise and know that He already has a venue for us just waiting to be revealed. 


And after reading this (which totally resembled the situation that we're in), it is really true that our plan B is God's plan A. We struggle to accept all these changes but God is always greater than our problems and he sees the entire picture from the day we started. 

Lets be positive and keep the optimism up :-)

365 Photo Diary #2

Just another picture heavy post...
Bid farewell to November 2011 and welcoming the final month of 2011 with open hearts

November 2011's

 
25th November 2011
I had a sudden craving for fruitcakes. Found this at the nearest mini mart.

26th November 2011
I was finally able to come home after a 7 weeks absence. My friend dropped me at my aunt's place and I had this for lunch. I also got to check out the fruitcake she's making *yumss..*

27th November 2011
Meet up with two of my closest friends for frozen yogurt *yea, we have that in Kajang now*. And I received my Big Bad Wolf loot too :-)


28th November 2011
The day I didn't really look forward to. Who wants to head back to Malacca when you're having so much fun at home.?

29th November 2011
I got the wonderful opportunity to emcee for CF. *wooOtss* As usual, I stuttered and missed out a couple of announcements. Really hoping there would be a second time.

30th November 2011
So, November 2011 came to an end and we are down with our final month of 2011. To You up there, it's been a good one year :-) I will look forward to the next year You have for all of us here.


December 2011's

1st December 2011
Ate my tau foo fa by the pool. I like doing stuff like this ~ so relaxing.

2nd December 2011
On the way to a meeting, I stopped by a mart in campus and got this. How I miss the times when I was still a kid, and there will always be ready stock of stuff like these in the fridge.

3rd December 2011
I made my most unplanned trip back home. I packed my bag within half an hour I think. Really thankful that I got to come home once again and even more thankful for my friend who volunteered to send me to Central.

4th December 2011
My whole family went to McD for dinner because I needed to send an email. Came back after that with this leftover and continued studying.

5th December 2011
Last day for me in Kajang and also my brother's SPM. Woke up and everyone has left for work and school. Then I decided to cook my own lunch. Oh how I miss cooking now...

6th December 2011
Back in Malacca once again. My char siew bun from home and a cup of Milo for my tea break. I finally own a mug after spending a semester plus drinking and eating from a multipurpose metal container >.<

7th December 2011
Random picture of my nails. I thought I'd better take a picture of it before it starts chipping. Note to self, stick to one colour only next time.


After 13 photos, I come to the end of my post. Till the next update, have a blessed weekend peeps:-)

Breaking Rules

Is it really that horrible that you do something that someone in authority told you not to.? Like when you are young and you've eaten too much candy for the day, and your parents said "No more candies for a week.!!". You try to stay away from it as long as you can, but by the 3rd day you snuck out and got yourself some treats. Usually, when one breaks rules, one gets punishment. I get it, that's how things work. That is possible when you are still 10 or something. Not when you are a year short of being 20.

So yes, I broke some rules and it became public together with the evidence to show that yes, I broke those rules... In fact, I was the one who made it public, because I saw it as harmless. Forgive me if it was offensive, I'm just being very honest.


All in all, I just wanna declare
.

I am rebellious and I know it.!!
