I have just finished setting up my $88 print + copy + scan machine :D
and it's Mac Compatible.
wipee~

gone are the days i have to look for my neighbours to help me print urgent documents
NOR pay $0.70 for a piece of Black and White A4 printout. (It's daylight robbery!!)

this is my Macbook winking at her new found lifetime companion:

Talking about lifetime companions,
I think marriage is great when you have someone you really love, and/or somebody you know God has ordained before time, specially for you.

I've heard a novel (or maybe not so novel after all) concept on my mission trip: 先结婚，才pat tor...hmm.. i'm not against that. But I for one will not choose such a route.
Simplest reason out of a long list is that I grind my teeth badly whenever I sleep with people I am not so familiar with.

Anw, the main thing on touching on this subject..
is to say.. that I choose to be single because the 2 conditions that make marriage a wonderful thing stated above is currently non-existent in my life :)

I'm too young to be tied down! HAHAH. unless he's super rich, I may consider.
MUAHAHAH

so here am i, slacking and waiting for Kimberle Shen in Raffles City.
Today I have succumbed to the materialism of this world, treading carefully not to step into the self-destructive zone.
It's only yesterday that i read an article in the papers regarding under 30s being heavily in debt and going bankrupt.

though this mission trip i have learnt the importance of carrying oneself properly and dressing appropriately, i must be careful to draw the line between neccessity and indulgence.
Spending a substantiable portion of my savings from 3pm to 5pm is a scary thing.

I am going to Bintan for a 3D2N retreat with a fellow Grace. :)
I thank God that it is quite cheap plus i know ppl who have went to the hotel before.
at least we are not going to be cheated, and its a 4star :)

I am taking up guitar courses after all, since I am free this holidays :)
I should invest my money in things that matter for eternity.
Upgrading my skils to worship the Lord, I mean, I'd be doing that FOREVER in heaven. So why not learn how to do it well here on Earth? :P

I am meeting jinbao later at PS for gelare waffles :) wee~
I'm going so so broke, and my mother is like playing at KL.
Wish I could ask for an advance in pocket money. :P

I just saw this: Nike + Run thingy which I am quite tempted to join:)
10k run from esplanade.. Hee~
I'd ask my mother when she returns from her KL trip.
maybe we can join tgt :) lovely
and we get a Nike Shirt too!!

just a short 6 day trip.
well, time passed by pretty moderately i would say.. somewhat quickly. but not as quick as it would seem during the academic year.

had gatherings, and loads of eating eating and more eating.
and suddenly i'm back home again.

i think i'd give my guitar lessons a miss this time round, being aware of some demerits of the course. It may not be that worth it after all *shrugs*

i left in China my faithful old shoe. battered and torn. it's older than my new man.
three years, its been comfortable and faithful.
too bad it makes me look pitiful and wretched and misleads others.

i buried it beside my hotel dustbin when i checked out when the 服务员 described by honourable companion as a mere 白色的拖鞋! :(
here's a picture of it/him/her.. u'd understand how 离谱 the above description was:my new asics aren't even half that comfortable.
and i bought a 98RMB shoe that which i pray will adopt the shape of my feet so that it'd be more comfortable and worth it..

being little Christs in little ways.

slowly but surely, i think im growing up.

今天终于有一天呆在家里休息。
回头看了，假期也过了一大半。
其实我一直在浪费时间。
今天落实了几个重要的计划。
落实—指的是在心中做了决定。

就是来临的新学期 — 我要报名上吉他课程、我也要参加新的课外活动。

成绩几个星期前也出了。考得很好吗？不见得。
但始终是有进步。
我觉得考得再坏，只要有进步...还有一个雀跃的理由。而这个理由就稍微挪开了那成绩不如理想好的事实，部分的消除了一些些的悲哀。

不要误会。小龟我，没有任命。
而是在继续奋斗的当儿，找寻活得更精彩的方式。

时间上必定更紧凑。
课业上必定更紧张。
纪律上必须更坚强。

必胜！

Finally.

You know when you are on breaking point when everything out of your mouth has a WRONG TONE. and turning people's smile downwards instead of upwards.

and then u end up having to apologize for whatever u said.

well, sleeping for 14 hours straight last night was great.
but i'm need mending and catching up spiritually more than physically now.

i can't believe i fell down trying to catch somebody slain today. LOL.
written only for brothers and sisters eyes. ha.


anw. learnt a great deal to translate stuff these few days. :)
and had much less hassle than other years. thanks to a faithful brother who supplied the entire transmission system. :)


mission trip coming, suddenly change entire plan. cool lah, but..
i am xiao xiao!
i'd still be a teen till september..

well, its finally over.
the next wave of work would come again.
and i'd be busy busy, but having nights free again.

where i can play nations, answer one question every night.
play crazy taxi on facebook.

record my daily expenses DAILY. instead of weekly, and trying to remember where I have spent my money.

able to back up my own computer files.
able to keep all my past semester notes properly (oh man, i don't know how long i have shelved and mentioned this item)
able to reformat my crazy com
able to upload splash photos :) at sentosa

able to listen to the sermons I have been helping translate these few days.
I really don't really register
I only look out for the phrases and the verses, scribble them down in chinese..
looking at the translator's face and trying to pre-empt what words they may stutter at..

tmr I have NO DUTY! and I will be able to sit all the way at the front of the auditorium.
and I can sing my heart out loud with familiar chinese songs, and worship God.
and listen and take notes on what Dr Bailey's gonna say.

I've heard how clear and how good he speaks on this topic.
Tmr's the time to hear it for myself :) YAYY.
