  • Dreams

    So if you attend Planetshakers City Church, you'd know that the church is going through a series of sermons called "DREAMERS ONLY". To put it in a general view, the core of the sermons are stirring up and flaming the dreams God has put in us, whether or not the dream 'died'.

    If you know me, Melbourne wasn't my choice of where I want to study. Because I wanted to study chinese, I thought that China was a good choice. But because of all the 'not-so-good-things' in China, I decided that Melbourne would do because I have family members here.

    On top of that, I have no idea why I wanted to study chinese when I can do so many other courses. Hey, after all, my SPM results was quite okay since I got 8A's-enough to satisfy myself. Knowing that I'd be furthering my studies in the language field, I chose to do A-Levels, more specifically, I chose to do science A-Levels. It has nothing to do with language and yet I chose to do it. Maybe I thought that it'd be helpful if I want to switch my 'path' in the future.

    I used to have a vision of me doing ministry in China, something that I've shove aside because I don't think I'll do that. Other than that, I used to dream that I'm surrounded by kids. Yes, I love kids. I didn't know that these dreams I have left behind (more like forgotten that it ever existed) actually came to live again when pastor after pastor preached on the series. So I'll take that as a sign from God. Eventually, my aunt asked me whether my translation classes where from English to Chinese or Chinese to English only or both. When I told her I have to study both, she asked me whether I'd like to help her with some translation work for her church ministry. I said yes.. Yes because I'm doing what I can to do good in God's kingdom and yes because it can be a good practice for me.

    Then there was PlanetUni camp where I encountered God like I've never had before. The word obedience came so many times during the course of the camp. Obedience to what God has to tell me and what He wants me to tell others. I guess I'm getting all that because I don't think I'm ready for any of it despite God telling me otherwise. Then Grace told me in the last Urban Life that she wants to see me step up in church and in Urbs.

    As of now, I still doubt my own ability to do things God wants me to. I know I shouldn't. But you know how you're always scared to make the first move? I'm at that stage right now. And I think I haven't been STILL ENOUGH to hear God. I'm sorry God.

    There's MORE TO LIFE, and it's only a GOD-DREAM when you partner with GOD to make the dream come true. =) I shall start with baby steps before taking on the bigger steps. I know for sure that God is with me, ALL THE WAY.

  • Because I neglected my blog...

    Hello world!

    I'm sorry for being away for so long but I can't help it. Yes, I know being busy isn't a very good reason but then again, life is a routine right now for me.. So when I get the extra time, I just chill, rest and watch a movie or something. What about catching up with friends, you ask? Well, to be honest, I haven't been doing much of it. I have emails that I have yet to reply. Maybe it's just because I have nothing much to update them on. But I know it's the effort that counts. So yes, those who are waiting for my email, I'll get to it as soon as I can. I guess at times I just got so lazy because whenever I'm in the mood to go online, the internet at home decided to be unfriendly. Hence, I can't detect the wireless.

    A lot has been happening since 2 months ago, okay, maybe not a lot. But there was spring break and PlanetUni Camp at Phillip Island where awesome things happened. God touched and moved so mightily and stir things in our hearts that we never imagined we'd have. =) Then there was exams. And I'm still sort of in the midst of exam period right now. Then there was quite a lot of birthday surprises, like Debs', Ming Xian's and Carmen's. Speaking of which, I have yet to upload the videos because Facebook tells me it'd take 45 minutes to upload a 1.44  minute video, how ridiculous.

    Owh, and I sorta baked my first cheesecake here-it's actually helping a friend who wanted to bake a cheesecake for her host mum and didn't know how to so I went and help. And guess what? I sprained my wrist and ankle that night, =| And I baked egg-less chocolate chip cupcakes with my lil' cousin last night. It turned out quite nice actually.

    Hmm.. What else? Photos are in Facebook but only my friends can view them. So if you want to view them, please let me know.

    Work is fine. Boss told me he's gonna give me a raise in the next few weeks. =) And I'm gonna help one of my aunt at her cafe tomorrow from 9am till 4pm. I just hope that my finger nails doesn't crack and chip again.

    Weather here is crazy. Its so COLD! And it HAILED just now. So I ran all the way home from the bus stop about 250 meters away.

    Okay, I have another post to write about an entirely different topic. So yes, this is the end of this blog post. Sorry it's picture-less again cause I'm using my brother's computer now. =P

  • Credit Card?

    Mum cancelled my Malaysian credit card today. Sobs. :(

    I have yet to apply for a credit card here, shall do that once I start uni next week cause I want to do it at the same branch I had my account with, which is just right opposite my uni so its more convenient although Box Hill's branch would be very convenient as well. But oh well...

    I am actually contemplating whether I need a credit card or not but since it's free for students, why not? Cause my uni doesn't accept cash as mode of payment. What a hassle.

    Worked OT for an hour today. So tiring. Been having late dinner since I started to work. Not good not good. Had dinner at 9pm last night and 8pm today. When I first arrived, it was early dinner, now, its late dinner.

    Anyway, baking egg tarts with friends tomorrow. Hopefully it turn out nice.

    Hugs!
