So glad to be dancing again!!! after a weeks of 'break'. Had a torturous start that I cannot lift my arms for even 1 minute without feeling the heavy-ness.
When I woke up today, OMG. I really Did get a sorethroat!!! The funny part is I got it yesterday in dance class. Being upside down, trying to swallow my saliva. Seriously, what a fascinating and disappointing experience.
Today is Christine's last day working in P&J. Glad to know her and work with her these past weeks and the atmosphere will get more quiet without her around. So sweet to give us all a farewell present. =)
Tomorrow and Sat is time for brainstorming and berbonding with CF committee once again. What a packed weekend. Now that I think of it.........in just a week+, I've had and will be involved in 5 worship sessions. O_O Good stuff. I love singing. Even if I sound off sometimes. hahaha.

Kingdom Women Conference
"United"
for such a time as this
for such a time as this
Such an amazing experience I had. Pastors Jem, Sam Evans, Debbie Prescott and the founder of Tenaganita, Irene Fernandez made huge impacts in the 24hrs we had. I've come out of the hall yesterday, more confident, free, brave, filled with joy, and trusting God much more. God worked something in me. It's just unexplainable to suddenly have a new feeling in me. =)
The words spoken by Ps Sam were so true. That Jesus is terrifying and fun, the God doesn't bring storms to 'test' our faith and that Jesus is already in my boat(destiny) throughout the journey to the other side. As she made us shout individually yesterday, it really pushed me. Something I haven't been experiencing for awhile and I'm glad for a cold-fresh wake up call. "I'm crossing over!"
Irene also shared her story and experience with girls who were trafficked. Crazy stuff. About 2 mil of the population in Malaysia are illegal workers. Hearing about how girls and women are tricked into prostitution seems like a story heard so often......and its disturbing. Promised a job to provide for their family and then have their identity and integrity taken away without any say. People treated even Worse than animals. It really is sad to hear God's creation being treated by another in such a way. It makes me cringe after watching each movie clip concerning this during the conference.
I'm glad I had friends who went. What a great, priceless experience.
Because of that.....
I attended youth today with a different attitude. The songs chosen and the sharing by Isaac and Kelsey seemed to be connected with what I've gained at the conference. I went today with so much confidence I wished I had since forever. Woohooo!!!
I'm crossing over!!!!!!

Words of encouragement =)
"Sometimes God calms the storm, sometimes He lets the storm rage and calms His child"
Yesterday was my last bible study with Lydia. I've learnt so much from her and the quote she shared above is something so comforting. To know that God is the absolute authority.
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...It's about learning to dance in the rain."
Another quote today from an email mummy sent.

5th day of Aus trip!
Today's weather is just nice. Not too cold to be wearing jackets. One thing that I really love about it here is the parks. People sitting anywhere on the green grass spending time together or even just wasting their lives away. I've always wanted to do that but the grass in Malaysia are usually too long, gives out a strong smell or full of mud. There's green almost everywhere here and the skies look extra blue with a mess of clouds.
Food is awesome. Grocery shopping here is SO fun! There's all kinds of everything. The roast chicken are sooo good, coming out fresh from the oven so there's still a soft and juicy texture to it. Fruit juices mainly come in huge plastic bottles and the cheese section is so wide.
People here are generally nice. The take time to convey their words politely and add a huge smile to it. A cashier at a huge supermarket made my day the other day.
I have only a few days left here before I go back to Malaysia and start a new sem. Sigh. Wish I had more time for me to do my own stuff like journaling, making a scrapbook, read some books and even think about the year ahead. Like blogging right now =)

A yolk to carry
I'm upset, mad, hurt and confused.
How do I express my appreciation all out if you always seem so cold and 'expect so much outta me'? Everytime I try to be myself in front of you, you think I'm being immature and 'improper'. What's more, you tell other people unconcerned how 'disappointing' I am. Now, hearing you 'ask' for a 'thank you' isn't easy for me to give because even if I do, how much of it will be 'considered' as 'sincere' to you?
It took me so much guts to even ask a favour from you and now I feel like I'm being stepped on, whether knowing or unknowingly. I'm a 20 year old in a family who isn't causing major problems in the family and I really don't have any favour at all in your eyes????
But I really am thankful. Just wish you could see it from a Humble point of view.
