Christmas!

It's been a great Christmas this year. From Speedlight Purity Camp, Christmas dinner at home, Christmas worship service by Jia and Doug, and Christmas fellowship with the FFs and Jia's sisters and isaac!

I love this pic :)


Right after Purity camp, Mum organized a lil christmas dinner with my extended family, uncles and aunts. And i've learnt that some of them havent had the taste of turkey before! The food was great! Had a lil game of Bingo, and a lil treasure hunt game at my very own home. Mmmm.











But of course, this season isnt just about the food, presents, games and shopping.
It's about the birth of our Saviour, who gave us the gift of life. That perhaps explains the significance of the giving of gifts during this season.

Thanks Mum for everything, and my lil brother the photographer!

Received Corrinne May's "Beautiful Seed" Album this Christmas. Thank you so much Jared! She was first introduced to me by Grace, and i fell in love with her unique voice and her lyrics.

Went to bed last night with Corrinne's album in my mp3 on my com. With the companion of piano, lyrics and her voice, it was a perfect way to end the night to catch up on lost sleep due to the recent speedlight camp. Teared during one of her songs, "Five Loaves and Two Fishes".

"Every sacrifice and service to our Father should come genuinely from our heart, no matter how or small it may be."







Also loved the new brown formal shirt by Linda. Size fits perfectly :)

Dear Heavenly Lord,
I thank you for everything,
that you've generously provided.
For my breath and life,
now i know we're no longer seperated.

I thank you for your birth,
that you gave up Heaven,
to be like us for our sake.
You overcame death,
so we can escape any incoming plague.

I thank you for my family,
and my friends and loved ones,
I am grateful these precious gems.
I pray Lord that you'll keep them safe,
and shower blessings to each one of them.

Hole in the Wallet

December has once again became a month of memories. Shopping, Christmas dinners, Speedlight camp, gift exhanges, laughters with friends and loved ones.

And how i dislike it when it has to come to an end.

Today I just had the most expensive visit to the doctor. Spent $192.60 for a blood test, for a Hepatitis C RNA test. I've nothing to say, the numerical figures speak for itself. Haha. I think it explains my moodless-ness (if there's such a word) for the day. I have nothing to hide though, I believe I'm clean!

Waiting for the camp pics, didnt bring my cam this year. And now that January is approaching, its time to switch back to my normal gear and prepare for my immunology examination soon. Yea.

Let it burn

Interest and passion. I feel that they are vital keys in pushing oneself to strive harder in the discipline that one is pursuing. There's no point in forcing oneself to indulge wholeheartedly in an activity that one doesn't have interest in, perhaps due to historical factors or other unaccounted variables that external friends might not have knowledge about.

My next quiz is 7 hours time. Thank God that my fever did not worsen. Technically fever is a good thing, but to burn the midnight petrol without sleep while running a temperature can turn oneself to be the most grouchiest person you've ever met.

Studying can be fun. Especially if you like the subject or you enjoy the knowledge gained during the learning process in lectures and labs. But the fact that I have to read up and study about Amphibians and Fishes, and to learn about their immune system just simply switches my brain to a blank. Seriously I do not care about these creatures I have no interest in! Ugh. Perhaps reading the bible soon might perhaps let my brain have a lil break and perhaps try to force myself to study on them later the morning.






US job losses at 34-yr high
"THE latest United States jobs data have sent the unmistakeable message that the world’s largest economy is careening deeper into recession."

If the big players are sinking, our economy in our lil red dot might follow suit to a certain extent. It's gonna be the survival of the fittest. Which reminds me that my current friends at school are my direct "opponents" in the similar career field. Hoho.
