summer fun continues...

the feeling of not having to think abt school is just great.

the past week has been good. hung out with frens and got some of school stuff done..

had a BBQ at home last weekend. had auntie sharon n the family over too. was good fun.

experimented w heat beads for BBQ instead of our familiar charcoal which they dont really use here. =P

main highlight of the week... Roxy Surf Jam on thursday at Apollo Bay.

a long 3-hour drive all the way along the Great Ocean Road to Apollo Bay. wayyy further from the usual Torquay we go to.

it was fun.

2nd try at surfing and its been good meeting the Roxy girls surf team and learning a thing or two from them.

almost there.. i need MORE practice to stand on the board and not just kneel on it.

anyways. got a showbag from the event.

did a lil shopping at the surf factory outlets after before heading back.

attended Aunt Angie n Carolyn's piano concert at Bernie's musicland after w the peeps.

was good. the kids are talented. =)

all in all.. the hols so far has been eventful and fun. more to come as i head home in 1.5 weeks time. ;)

summer holiday's starting off on a really good note. :)

been having loads of fun ever since exams ended.

met gladys on melb cup day. FINALLY to catch up n chill.!

being the day that stops the nation. melb cup saw many ladies going out dressed in the latest spring fashion and their big hats and boas and guys looking great in suits and ties.

its the Aussie annual thing. :)

anyways. we caught up over desserts :)

had churros at brunswick street before having yummy pancakes along the same street too.

walked arnd the city. didnt really do much shopping since quite a no. of shops were closed and we just wanted to catch up anyways.

great time spent. time has been zooming past. we realised we hadnt met to chill for more than a yr. though we're both in melb. its always been things that cropped up last min or both of us just had clashing busy schedules.

spanish choco churros. yummy!

yummy pancake :) cant beat Romeo's though.

glads' disgusting soap-tasting energiser drink that we didnt touch aft taking a sip of it. ewww.

i then left to meet elaine darrell and the group of korean guys for dinner.

nice meeting new ppl :)

had korean bbq for dinner. good food good company :)

headed back home w the whole grp of korean guys after. a fun bunch of peeps.

thursday... goodbye dinner for andy n won before they left for summer.

met more new friends. we played games. real healthy ones:)

last night.. john bevere's leadership summit.

AWESOME! the anointing of God upon his life is amazing.

he gave a mindblowing message and he really exudes great passion for God.

we are to being on fire for our loving Father yet MAINTAINING it is what that matters.

we're not to do it alone. God never intended it to be anyway. the message really dealt with several issues im currently facing and seeking answers to.

alot to digest but sure awesome for more character building and refining.

the process of refining in the furnace of afflication.

i wanna come out of the refiner's fire purer than before. being more Christ-like. :)

holding on to faith and having His love to surround and keep me going. greeatt. x)

after the leadership summit, the grp of us met up shar babe at her place for Romeo's.

exams are finally over for all of us.

its great to be in the company of good friends. lovin' it.!

today. morning breakfast before we headed off for day 2 of john bevere's leadership seminar at Citylife.

another awesome morning spent. this time the message was on the role and purpose of the Church and the ppl being a part of the emerging church.

really answered alot of things i was asking God. the more hungry one is, the more one will seek. tt's the KEY!

ASK and it shall be given. !

i wanna be hungry for God and letting him work in my life. He never fails in his promises.! NEVER. He's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Thank GOD!!

im going thru a new season now. waiting upon the Lord to reveal his will for my life. its gonna be an amazing journey im sure. i need to hang on to this ride although it is seeming pretty tough at times.!

tonight's gonna be another great service im sure. :)

exciting.. tt's wad summer is gonna be.! god is gooooddd..!

alrights.. till the next post.!

off to a nap~

the summer holidays have OFFICIALLY started...!

the reality of having a 3.5 months break from now is yet to sink in after all the cramming for exams. but it sure is easy to get back into just doing nothing and relax. the last paper has been an adrenaline rush for me. cramming through the night and going to exams with 2.5 hrs of sleep(a very disturbed one summore). thank god the paper went ok. shrimal kept his word abt the questions after all the numerous changes made during semester's lectures. all papers down. the results are in 3 weeks time. for now. its enjoyment for me!. i really thank god for his grace and favour during this exam season. awesome. unfailing promises. ALWAYS! i really couldnt have done it even half as well on my own. anyways.no more schoolwork until next march. woOOhoOO!. alrightys. im looking forward to more outings and all during the next month before heading home :)

.....Aunty Judy.....

was called home to be with the Lord on monday 29Oct07.

she lost her battle to cancer.

i trust she's in a better place now.

free of all the pain and sufferings she was under while having chemo-treatment.

i thank god for her life and her; she's been a great blessing to all of us.

she's almost like an aunt to me on coming to australia.

i pray for god's peace and love to surround the family and for them to stay strong during this time...

----

i got the news only on wednesday frm uncle patrick while studying for my paper.

im feeling real bad now that i cant make it for the funeral due to exams.

it all came too sudden and it was just 3-4 weeks ago when i last saw her.

then.. she was reacting well to treatment and medication.

we were all holding on for a good outcome.

ive no idea why things took a turn for the worse but it sure did.

mayb it's for the better. but im in no position of understanding all of this that happened.

well... there are so many 'why's in life that i dont understand either.

ive just gotta have faith and trust in god; for his plans and purposes are higher than mine.

my understanding is limited but ive gotten used to accepting it.

there are bound to be circumstances i meet that just dont make ANY sense to me.

.... the funeral's held today. i pray for proceedings to go well and for the family to stay strong...

god bless her family <3

-my deepest condolences to one and all-
