High Five

To quote the boyfriend from Facebook:

"Matt & Evon just had a simple but wonderful 5th year anniversary dinner date. Place was good, food was so-so, time spent together was indeed well worth it! :)

Plus, the fact that unexpected flowers can put a smile on a girls face was a big plus point! :) African Daisies did bring her a smile when she stepped into the car ;) "

Thank God for the 5 years we had, and many more years to come! =)

Teach me Lord

Whenever.. Wherever.. Whatever..

...teach me Lord, to be vigilant.
So that I, would not bring shame upon Your name and glory.
So that I, could be a living testimony to You.
1 Corinthians 16:13-->
"Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong."

...teach me Lord, to be non-judgmental.
So that I, won't conclude without understanding the person or the situation.
So that I, would not offend or hurt anyone.
Luke 6:37-->
"Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven."

...teach me Lord, to be patient.
So that I, would not bring anger or frustration towards anyone.
So that I, could think clearly and understand the circumstances better.
Proverbs 14:29--->
"A patient man has great understanding, but a quick-tempered man displays folly."

...teach me Lord, to endure.
So that I, would continue to hope for something better to come to me.
So that I, even though am suffering now, could later taste the sweet victory.
Romans 15:4-->
"For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope."

Teach me Lord, i pray and plead...

The decorated and non-decorated version

It's been quite some time since we last met for girls meeting, well, we called it BB, short for 'Building Bridges'. It's sort of like a support group for us girls in university students and young adults i suppose. We usually cook or bake together, and just chat all day & night long. And pray! Well, sometimes we just kept chatting and forgot to allocate time to pray. Xp.. But i do believe that we pray for each other all the time!! =)

Thank God for sisters like such, to just be there for each other, encourage each other in our studies, relationships, life. Truly thank God for each one of them!

smile!

Extraordinary Dinner

It was the people, that make this dinner extraordinary!! =)

Matt & Evon

I bet some of you are thinking "Both of them again?" or "Nothing new.." or "Boring!!"

Neh.. Not just the both of us. But with another pair of couple. Matt said it's like some sort of double date, hehehehe... But it was more than a double date, it was a gathering, well, at least to me, cause Matt was just an accompanist for that night! LOL! It was very nice of him to accompanied me to the dinner. Love my boyfriend! Xp..

So who was it that i was meeting up with? Hwan & Ching!! Hwan was my fellow prefect back in secondary school years, also my classmate back in Form4 & 5. Ching was my secondary schoolmate, didn't get to be in the same prefectorial board with her nor in the same class, but yea, we're acquaintance.

Meeting up with the love birds are really nice. We chat about old time, chat about present time, also the future!! Well, just in case we might not see each other in the near future, might as well chat all the way to future! Xp.. Of course, Matt was a bit out of place. But thanks to Hwan & Ching, who made the effort to make Matt felt comfortable, he enjoyed the fellowship as well!

Looking at both of them, i can feel and see that they are really in love. Both knew each other since primary years, went to the same secondary school, and only got together when they're pursuing their tertiary education. I wonder if they realise, that they only don't know each other for 6 years in their entire life! I believe this would not be a boyfriend girlfriend kind of relationship, but best friends as well!

It's encouraging to hear from Ching that she look up on the steady relationship that Matt & I have. That she take us as one of the couple-role-model thingy. *shy* Xp.. But what she said really lifts me up, and i could only thank God for that. Cause obviously, without God, i don't think Matt & I could go any further in our relationship. Thank God! =)

Long story short, really appreciate and cherish the dinner and fellowship with the love birds. Pray that they'll cherish each other as best friends in life! =) And that prayer applies to all the couples i know too! =)

Ching, Hwan, Evon & Matt

p/s: Photos taken by Ching. Thanks Ah Ching!

Swim

Swimming is one of the sport that i do. Well, it's a relaxing sport. To be surrounded by water, to listen only to silence, it somehow felt very relaxing.

It's been a long time since i went for a swim, and yet the swimming pool in the club was closed due to renovation or something? Apparently they are trying out a way to clean the pool water without using chlorine. Let's see how it goes.

But thank God, there's another smaller pool, which can be used. But i don't know why must it be so freaking cold. It's so icy cold! Yet i went down to swim for a while, thanks to a boy and a man. It was fun though, apart of the coldness, to just chillax with a boy and a man whom i love.

The boy and the man whom i love

the main pool, the water is as green as the grass! o.O

nah! you don't want to swim in that!

As most of my post, it ends with a photo of the couple! =)

Matt & Evon

Potatoes & Babies Lover!

Strictly for those who LOVE (not like!) potatoes!

Matt & I, on our usual paktor(dating) session, decided to eat at this newly discovered place called 'Ireland's Potato'.. And it turned out to be such a good meal!! One of the main reason, or perhaps the only reason was that we both LOVE potatoes!

We found this saying on the wall, and totally agree with it! It goes like this:

Ireland's proverb says: there are two things in the world that can't be joked:
1. Marriage
2. Potato

Ireland's Potato

Fries with yummy cheese topping

the so-so potato balls, hash brown in ball shapes

roasted potato with sour cream sauce

Strictly for those who LOVE (not like!) babies!

If you have been a faithful reader of this blog(thank you!), you would know that my mum's babysitting a baby called Emma..

Emma in her towel

As the saying goes, 'All good things come in pairs'.. Hence, here comes another baby that my mum is babysitting, Emma, short for Emmanuelle.. A daughter of my church member..

Emma, staring into the camera

It's quite funny how God works.. I've always wanted to have sister/sisters.. But along the way, came Ah Yuan & Kai Wen, brothers.. =.=" But i still thank God for them, grateful to have them in my life, well, in one way or another.. Xp..

Back to how God works.. Well, He 'gave' me Emma, and she has been with my family and I for about 15 months, and it's good to have her in our family, she's been a joy to us. Just recently, God 'gave' me another baby sister, Emma (Emmanuelle)! So now, i could say, i have two baby sisters, though they're not blood-related to me, but i already take them as my little sisters.

And let me tell you, it's very funny to see both Emmas, together in action! Oh fyi, the first Emma is older, she's exactly 1 year and 4 months today! And the second Emma is younger, she's close to 10 months old.

Both looking at my mum

Love Potatoes!

Love Babies!
