I wanna have my own sundae shop. to just sell sodas and sundaes.. Sodas And Sundaes Everyday! S*A*S*E
tailored after the retro mod of the 60s. flirty knee length skirts. bright vibrant colors. clearly inspired by Hairspray.. but it's just something that i like. with the glowing neon lights of the dark brown juke box.
a place for people to chill over sundaes.. italian sodas.. ice cream sodas... milkshakes.. cakes... no staples like sandwich or food.. just pure munchies like cheese fries.. cakes.. muffins.. cupcakes.. happy food of the world. for happy ppl. to see those smiles and know that i can make people feel a bit better for that little while..
and it's open for bible studies everyday! why?
Saved And Serve Everyday.

Romans 1:20 "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse."
don't ask me why but i suddenly thought abt it during the sermon. people see things. science explains how things happen. but it never explains why. that's the beauty of creation. we'll never be able to comprehend the full details of the creator's plan. but details don't matter. because we know what His ultimate plan is already.
Ephesians 1:7-10
"In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth."
and because of that, i will still my anxious sinful heart and listen to Him. i will be content in Him, today, tomorrow, and forever. because i know Him.

I know You
I find You in the warmest summer
In the frost on a winter's day
I find You in the children's laughter
In each special little way
I see You when the autumn leaves fall down
When the sun sets and rises again
Yet it's not enough to see or find
When I don't know where You've been
*
But I know You as the servant King
Who loves and serves Your people
I know You as my only Lord
Who can tolerate no evil
I know You as my one true Savior
Defeated death to clear my sin
'Cos you knew me when You chose me, God
So I'll know You, Lord
And to Your will, give in.
*
I find You in my tribulations
Through each tiny step of my way
I find You in the still of darkness
In each and every passing day
I see You when I'm on my knees
Though I'm broken and crying in vain
And it's You I hold on to forever
For there's nothing else to gain
*
For I know You as the servant King
Who loves and serves Your people
I know You as my only Lord
Who can tolerate no evil
I know You as my one true Savior
Defeated death to clear my sin
'Cos you knew me when You chose me, God
So I'll know You, Lord
And to Your will, give in.
For I know You as the servant King
Who loves and serves Your people
I know You as my only Lord

So I'll know You, Lord

longing for a trip alone once again. it's addictive. all you need is just one trip and you get pulled along on this whirlwind of emotions and sensations. ah, the insatiable wanderlust of this solo traveller. but..
my money can be put to better use than to just satisfy my selfish hunger. like giving to those who need it more than me.
before you think that it's dangerous for me to travel alone, i disagree to an extent. i don't go discovering new countries. i go back to country that i've been to before, but different places. so at least there's some level of comforting familarity.
what are the chances of me being able to slip away from them all when i hit korean? maybe when we hit the slopes. will try to get some alone time with a cuppa hot choc and a book.
just can't describe this feeling. i'm staring at the staff planner. people that i've known since internship.. people that i just became close to.. and they are leaving. at this point when i feel a little empty from them leaving, i feel crowded at the same time, thus this urge to walk away from everything for now.
places i wld like to escape to for some alone time.. PS Bu Bu in Taipei, any cafe at the backpacking area in HCMC, any cafe or dondes in Flinder's Street, Melbourne
***
you know the sinking feeling in your stomach when the G force hits you as the rollarcoaster goes racing down the tracks? you scream because the screaming somehow relieves that sensation and you feel better after that?
what happens when that feeling is not in your stomach but in area slightly left of the middle of your chest?
what happens when you want to break down and cry but you can't let it show?
what happens when you can't seem to find the "G force" that's causing it.. perhaps because you don't want to admit it too?
and how do you make yourself feel better despite it all?
it's personal, myself and i
we've got straightening out to do
i'm gonna be a big girl now
and big girls don't cry

tiring and dreary weekend.
went for physio on sat morning. farzad is amazing. my back's fixed. heez. after that, i had a quick appt with a yahoo buyer then headed to bugis to buy fel's present. i bumped into the prudential ppl again. this time round, since i was looking for a plan to force me to save so that mummy will be happy, i actually signed up with one of the plans. Pru-Cash.
ended up chatting with my fin adviser, lionel, abt every other thing during the discussion. was supposed to meet yak and elaine at park lane shopping center after that so i left soon enough. clever me decided to walk. as usual.
and it rained!! some weird indian man asked me if i wanted to share a cab after i sheltered him across the road. omg. crazy, can? but that's not gonna stop me from sharing umbrella with ppl so after that, i ended up sheltering a tourist too. he asked me for directions to orchard road.
mentally, i worked it out. it wld be feasible to walk to orchard from selegie. but it wld be mad to do that in the heavy rain. so i told him that he might want to wait for the rain to stop. he thanked me and disappeared into a building for shelter.
when i reached park lane, i was in a wet mess. lionel checked on me with a msg. derno why, i was actually expecting it while i was walking. the perks of being a petite girl are real. :)
then at night, there was supper and a surprise for fel at adam road. the most unlikely place for a surprise. heez. went home in time for the match. but it was the most boring mufc match i've ever watched. what a disappointment. thank goodness for saha at least. even the man city v blackburn, despite the mundane-ness, was more interesting than mufc v sun'land.
sunday, woke up late. plans for evening service was disrupted by a visit to mr lim and toa payoh. during the rainy afternoon, i went for the grad shoot and rochor road tau hway. by evening, i was exhausted.
somehow, i found energy to watch miami ink, man city v blackburn and showbiz until 12 before i decided i needed to knock off.
and i thought weekends were for relaxing..
******
by the way, my family is flippin' mad. just flippin' mad, i tell you. and i've been shutting them out with music. strange song to shut them out. but it's just in my head. so what if it's by pussycat dolls? it's a catchy tune and i like the dance!
let it go
let it go

you are our solskjaer
our ole solskjaer
you make us happy when the skies are gray
'cos when it's pouring
you just keep scoring
so please don't take my solskjaer away
the last time i heard it at a mufc game, it was in 98. the man utd medley. gosh, i can't find the lyrics for that anymore. ahaha. but that's one part of the song that i really like.
the last time i heard that song? at sunderland's game. it's their game song now. funny that they're playing against sunderland on sat. finally a match that's not on sunday, 10.55 pm. load up on the snacks!! we're winning this game!
now the injurytime legend is leaving us. the one who scored against bayern in 1999 to bring the trophy back home. the one who had saw a 4-goal spree against Forest and had me screaming the house down.. the one who delivered the FA cup against liverpool.. all in our treble season.. the cherubic angel-face striker who had secured a place in the hearts of all mufc fans.
the myspace page had so many msges left for him. i swear, i nearly cried when i read the first page alone. he will be fondly remembered. after all, he's our super-sub.
i don't think any other club has managed to establish players the way mufc does. people will remember schmeichel for his red ruddy nose, screaming at the players on the pitch and scaring the opposition shitless. or cantona with his i-so-cool-you-don't-wanna-mess-with-me air.. or beckham and his free kicks.. what do you remember abt terry? or henry? that they were good players and capts. but no one makes an impact like the mufc players.
ok, i'm biased, fine. but which arsenal fan can forget how ryan giggs dribbled past their line of 'formidable' defenders to flick the ball into the net all by himself.. see my point? ahahaha.
i suppose i deserve the hate msgs after that bit. buut.. it doesn't change the fact that our dear ole gunner solskjaer is putting up his boots. never will we have another solskjaer. there will be other great players, i know. just none like my angelface.

i love my darlings. they can't stop reminding me why they are so dear to me. they spoil me to bits, checking on me thru msn and sms, being concerned for me, keeping me in their prayers even now when i'm far from them. literally.
yar, we're just separated by the aye and cte. but you cannot deny the fact that tuas isn't very near bras basah. boo.
and we haven't had supper together for such a long time! saturday night! saturday night's alright for supper!

121 days more to christmas.
why christmas? i don't know. it's not like i'm still a student in cf. i knew that i looked forward to christmas every year when i was in the cf.. not just christmas..
the camps..
the AGM..
the graduation of seniors..
the start of a new sch year..
then it struck me. it's because of events or days like these where the cfers just get together, squeeze into whatever area that's given to us... and eat.
joking!! we don't just eat.. we chat.. we laugh.. we photo-whore with one another..
i don't know how many afterglows i've organized... did one AGM lunch.. one thanksgiving dinner.. started the post-christmas pre-ny party 'tradition'. i remember our first one was at mich's place where we sat around and watched love actually.. the welcome receps..
gosh.. all the memories. i somehow forget the troubles i've faced during the organizing. i remember being fractic but not the reason behind it. but i remember the events i've organized..
just because the faces of the cfers having a laugh.. just gathering together.. taking that time out to chat and get to know one another better..
i feel sooo blessed that i've had the chance to be part of this fellowship.. that opportunity to serve the girls and the guys. sure, i might have been difficult at times.. obnoxious even.. but they took all my sinfulness in their stride and looking at them, there's no way i could sit at the sidelines and not bother abt them.
sure, there are times where i'm tempted to throw in the towel and tell God that i'll serve Him in my own way.. where i don't have to be committed to any ministry but my own. it disheartens me when i find myself giving but people don't respond. when they don't bother to smile at you anymore.. when they treat you like a stranger after one term.. yet when i look at the existing cfers.. the heart underneath all of them..
never could i leave them. when the girls come to me.. i find it soo hard to push them away even when i'm tired.. i try my earnest best to maintain this camaderie. my Lord never pushed me away.. how can i do that to His people?
121 days more to christmas. let's party. :)
****
on a side note, please pray for me. my lower back's been giving me probs.. the muscle relaxers from the doc are not working. they just make me sleepy. Mr Lim, my sinseh, is scaring me with talk of bunched up nerves and muscle problem.. going to make an appt with the physiotherapist soon. just pray for me that i'll be able to get thru the pain for now.. cos as much as i just wanna lie in bed and not move, it hurts to even toss and turn..

20th Aug, 1105-1150..
a spam of 25 mails between 5 girls. we are really quite amazing. and it was just arranging for lunch. oh well, this is one of our better days. when jen is around, we are crazier. every minute, you get pinged due to a new msg. and i'm grateful.. for these crazy girls who keep me going.
love ya loads! drinks and ktv! soon!!
and oh! the other thing that keeps me going.. my wallpaper
i love you all.. like lubb lubb very deep!
**
meeting ended really late.. by the time i left office, it was 9 pm. i waited for the bus for 10 min, decided not to wait.. and walked to the mrt. and what a smart choice it was. opposite me on the train was a really really and i mean really good looking guy.. chiselled.. tall, big eyes.. typical anime man.
but yet strangely enough.. when i took my phone to distract myself from staring at him the whole ride back, i started to smile.. not because of him.. but because of my phone.
yar lah.. whole bunch of uber cute and seemingly random shots.. but the events leading up to each photo.. i still remember fondly. and they made me smile. made me forget my weariness and hunger. forget the drop-dead gorgeous guy. i've got my own bros..

work's been a whole rollarcoaster ride of emotions. of depression and joy.. this was from yday..
***
1100
not having a good day. rather frustrated with just about everything that i don't understand. the mundane matters that shouldn't matter are suddenly blown up. oh bleepity crap. feel like crying right now. really badly.
***
1450
i love Him.
i love how He shows me that He cares.. i love how He reminds me that He's watching over me.. that while He doesn't have to work His magic to tell me that He's never left me, He still does. that giddy sensation of love abounding. if He can do the greater thing to send His own Son to die for me when i was His enemy...
what more to take the steering wheel from this sinful girl He calls His child and deliver her from the king of ulu in Johor back to the ulu of ulu-s in tuas.
when i never prayed for the burden to be lifted..
when i never prayed for the chance to not go..
when i never prayed for a change of plans..
when all i prayed was for me to continue to remember and glorify Him in all that i do and say.. in my work.. in my responsibilities.. in my life.
but He knew all the unspoken fears and anxiety in my heart when i tried to suppress them to face this chapter of my life.. of being far from the like-minded people whom i've grown to love and call family.
lesson learnt? i need to stop trying to be strong. i need to remember that i am weak.. that i am defenceless.. that i am vulnerable.. but He's my fortress and strength and all that i can depend on.
oh my God. i love Him.
***
then last night was after glow too. so we had it at lydia's. it was fun to sit around with the usual bunch and chat.. thiang's finally back too. got to catch up with ppl like xy, ben, josh, dan.. then it was supper. the amazing 9 of us squashed into nat's car. back seat was kenji, ben and winston. the middle saw kelly, bj, jt and me. then marcus drove.
really quite an odyssey.
but i love the laughter.. the randomness of our chit chat.. can't wait for the next time i get to catch up with them again!

6th Aug. location: tuas. again.
1.05 pm
still no lunch. i'm actually faint. i hope i dun pass out. like really really. crap.
1.17 pm
stomach aching. eyes are glazed. kinda light-headed. finding it hard to focused. double crap.
2.38 pm
finally had lunch. the team is pretty subdued today. i want my lee hom singing to me.. but with boss boss around, i don't quite dare to take out my earphones. i foresee OT tonight. leader's training? triple crap. i'm depressed. thank God for the ever-so bubbly FC who makes me smile.
5.08 pm
God really works in ways that i can never fanthom. i'm going back to the office at 6 pm after all. which means i can go to sch from there and for leader's training. which also means that i'm gonna be working late into the night for today and tmr. but i don't really care. i miss my dears too much. i miss that seemingly euthopia of a fellowship..
FC made me laugh when i went to look for her. gosh, she really makes this more bearable. still feeling floaty though. not much of an appetite too. need to buy gastric pills. please don't let me be sick.
7th Aug. location: home sweet home.
12.22 am
should really be sleeping. back still aching when i bend. dun like. feels good to see the cfers again. don't know if i can make it for Mark studies tmr though.. and hopefully i can make it for afterglow. i just don't like missing them..
that sense of familiarity. fine, it's too "perfect" a christian life with them.. to know that you can turn to them and pray together.. to really just share lives and know that they are people willing to glorify God and worship Him with their entire lives.
and to you all.. out-reach hor, people! when i come back and visit, you better be doing it!! lubb you all deep deep! miss you!

last night went to wala wala with yuda and mich. i like how we can just sit there and not say anything. the "chill" band was good. they sang all my fave chill songs too! during a chorus of "chasing cars", the lead looked over to our side and smiled briefly. whee~
and that someone was there too. heez. jiali cld tell by my insane grin when i told her abt the night at wala wala.
work's just fluctuating now with the end of one of our phases. then it's a new job and JB for me. not looking forward to it. i wld rather be in woodlands. at least still on singapore island. plus there's ecd too. haiz. i wld prefer to count inventory in taiwan factories too.
oh, got a visit from a ducky today. super funny.
currently ODing on Ronin's "One More Moment". it reminds me of Howie Day's "Collide". not the tune. but the overall feel of the song. i can listen to it over and over again but that one particular line will still stand out.
"i found i'm scared to know i'm always on your mind."
it's one of those lines that i'd just fall for. esp if you change it a little.
"i found you're scared to know you're always on my mind."
it's just something that struck me when i was walking in as that song played on my mp3 player. Ronin's "One More Moment" is one of those with sweet cliche lyrics. but the acoustics are just so soothing. (have bolded the particular lines that stood out..)
One More Moment
don't take too long to say "i love you" to the ones you love
cos time has a habit of slipping away
and out on a clear blue sky when lightning strikes on a sunny day
just take me in and keep me from the rain
and the words that seem so hard to say
come out when you've gone away
stay a little while and hear me say
that i want you here tonight
and i need you by my side for just one more moment
for just one more moment with you
turn away and say good bye to each and every word that passes by
like a distant memory
and time keeps slipping away and time will turn to gray
and time will be the one who holds you down
and the words that seem so hard to say
come out when you've gone away
stay a little while and hear me say
that i want you here tonight
and i need you by my side for just one more moment
for just one more moment
that i want you here tonight
and i need you by my side for just one more moment
for just one more moment with you
sometimes time will treat you bad
before you even know what's wrong
in the end it hits you hard
please tell me you'll be strong
one last thing.. i know i've already planned an outing to wala wala 6 years from now. but that doesn't mean that we can't go there or anywhere else in the 6 years in between, you hear me? ask me out!

been thinking thru some stuff that's been happening in my life. how everything's playing out. all that i never wanted to happen to me seems to be happening. but i've realized that i don't need to know where i'm going from here. i already know my final destination. but i feel like a sprinter who's walking because the sprinter here just has no idea which route to take now. whatever route i take, i just gotta keep trusting in Him.
right?
