Laugh, Love and Live
I would be true, for there are those who trust me. I would be pure, for there are those that care. I would be strong, for there is much to suffer. I would be brave, for there is much to dare. I would be friend to all, the foe, the friendless. I would be giving, and forget the gift. I would be humble, for I know my weaknesses. I would look up, laugh, love and live!

Praise God! Have been learning about trusting God in faith and have seen so many miracles!!!
12th June. Just ended retreat, was super tired, but had to go look at more furniture with Mum. Prayed for Supernatural energy. And yes, I spent almost 2hours looking at furniture with Mum, not feeling tired in the least.
12th June. This is our nth time looking at furniture. I prayed that we'll find what we need at reasonable price and good quality. And we made purchases! We bought a bunk bed with 3 drawers and 2 free mattresses, a metal pull out bed frame and a study desk plus shelves and drawers. All costs about $700-$800, including delivery. Amazing... cos so far, all bunk beds with mattresses we've seen cost $700-$800...
16th June. Went to school this morning to do some research. copied lots of useful links and wanted to email them to myself, but the computer hanged. And I had no other copies... And I prayed, God, I'm gg to trust u for this! You are my refuge and my fortress, in whom I will trust! (Actually, I really tot that i'll have do search for the links all over again... but didn't get too upset, which was kind of amazing in itself) Just open up my email, and found the links neatly sent to me! Praise God! Thank you, Father! You are indeed Almighty!
Will continue to learn to trust you!

Came back from cell retreat last weekend. Think we are closer as a cell now. Had a really good time and begun sleeping well again on sun and mon nights.
Of goals and goal-setting and directions
Just came back from a career seminar cum recruitment process, which again brings me back to the question of what are my goals and directions in life... what's my definition of success?
The world sees success as
1. Being the best in whichever field you are in.
2. Earning lots of money.
3. Fame.
4. Power.
Any others? I really do not know. I do want to be successful and I know that my Heavenly Father would bless me with success too. I just hope that I would never put anything else before him, that I would focus on the Giver first and forthmost, then, on the gift.
Yet, I do realise that I do not have any specific/grand goals... like someone once told me she wanted to set up a humanitarian organisation, etc... or even wanting to earn your first million is a goal as well... I only know that I want to finish my honours graduating with 2nd upper or better, start teaching, and I don't know what's next anymore.
Ah.... I need to change!!!
