Time Flies!

haha, i can't believe it's july already! We're into the second half of the year, much faster than it seems!

Hmm... I reached home at 7 today!! wow... so early right?? Felt so happy on my way home leh! hehehe.. i think i was even smiling to myself! haaa............ Nah.... u must understand... today i had this assembly talk that i was so apprehensive about! haha.... and finally it's over, and it was ok... so... i felt so free!! hee hee... so happy. hahahaa.

Anyway..... as i was saying.... time flies! Half of 2008 is gone just like that! haa... Mmm, so far it's been a good year... It feels like a very different year... don't know why! haha.... Well, for one, this is the first year that God has led me to write many songs!! It's always such an exhilarating experience each time i pen down the songs.... which reminds me, i haven't been writing any recently! oh no! hahaa...

One more thing, this year I've started exercising more.... haha... though i need a lot more discipline in it! haha! I really enjoy monday evening Cardiomix lessons with tng.....(and the delicious dinner after each lesson,haha!) and the occasional jogs with pam, sara, del, chin... very fulfilling! hee... And we are joining more runs together too! which in itself is rather exciting! it's literally RUNNING together as an ohana! hahaa.. ok not funny... hahaha...

Let's see... what else.... Hmm, Work! Well, this year i see the evident deepening of relationships with the children, with volunteers.... it's really different! And God has certainly blessed me with the privilege and honour of seeing some fruits of our labour! Well, there are certainly moments that i'm down, but when these life stories come in, it just puts a great big satisfied smile on our face.... PRaise God!

Well, just a simple story ro share... there is this boy, last yr P6.... he was big and burly, loud and rash.... really! He was literally our benchmark for everything.... hahaha... Yet this boy had this distinct leadership and charisma in him... and it was so evident that he had a very good and kind heart... i remember last year, when derrick shared with him that his teacher had a lot of confidence in him to do well in his exams, he broke down... And that is no small deal, a big burly boy like him breaking down.... Well, what has become of him now? We always worried about him, even after he left school.... It's that kinda boy that either do v well or v badly cuz he had so much potential, so much energy in him..... Haha, lo and behold, he has become a model student.... he even came back to receive a special prize from the school... hahahahaha... it was a huge shock to us, seriously.... we were so amazed, we know it can only be God... i mean, really! It was Impossible! hahahaa... Praise the Lord.... The last we heard, he was going to the library on saturday to borrow books... HAHAHAHA... my eyes almost poped out.... haaa..... God is amazing, Amen?! :)

I look forward to an interesting second half of the year... Praise God for what he has done so far.... Yup.. Thank You Lord! :)
