STM update 1

Have I confirmed that I'm going on the STM mission to Yunnan and Sichuan yet? While yeah... Thought I might update a bit more here about it. For ppl who wants to, to follow and support in prayer, and as a record for myself... how often I update, that's still in the air...

Went to my first O-meeting at SCAC yesterday. Met the wonderful team (except one member) and had an amazingly fun time! I'm going to be the youngest on the trip! xD "siu mui mui" again~ hee! Met Jen and Terry - Lainey's "cool friends" and had a mini reunion with Bernie and Paul ^_^ Rev Lau will be our team leader - he is AWESOME!! xD so "c mun" and softspoken - i love it! And a BUNDLE of fun! =) Am so excited about the trip.

One day post-1st-mt I'm starting to see obstacles already >< 
1) Over used throat yesterday at church - singing (choir), over speaking (kids and drama... enough said) and ate THAI food for dinner >< --> scared it'll turn into a biiiiiiiiig thing >< prayers needed!!!!! Am on full menu of Redoxin (Vitamin C + Zinc), Panadols, Lorenzge and water water water (NONSTOP!!)
2) Plane tickets - going is fine... will be flying from Syd to HK on June 22... however!!! i can't secure tickets back to Sydney on time >< am starting to stress, earliest is Aug4 NIGHT right now, that's missing 1.5wks of uni - what if I fail?!?!?!?!? I'm scared >< *sniffs* 

Prayers are greatly needed for 1 and 2 above and also for my faith and trust in God to be unwavering firm. Cos frankly, I feel really scared to be on the spiritual battlefield so frontline right now. Rev Lau's sharing yesterday about we RECEIVE before we're called to GIVE was really encouraging =) As I stood scaring myself at the train station today over "what if" situations re:tickets, the song "My Redeemer Lives" (Chinese version from SOP) came into my head =) 

Thank God for always holding onto me and for his unfailing love and grace even when this "siu mui" is so weak and fearful. 

Dear Lord, help me to trust in You completely, thank You that I can see your glory and strength when I am weak and completely helpless and feeling hopeless. Lord I need You.

More later~

P.S. I'm not sure how often I'll be updating this so if you want more regular updates re: STM please let me know so I can add you to my prayer list. Thanks in advance!!

The precious miracle of life...

I'm taking over teaching Scripture at North Sydney Girls from a wonderful person called Teresa Lee as she just had her new child - a beautiful girl named Madeleine (Maddie!)

I was blessed with the opportunity to visit mother and child at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital today, they're being discharged tomorrow!!

Even though I haven't known Teresa for that long (in fact, before today I've only met her one other time! and emailed/sms her a few times!) she warmly welcomed me to visit them and was extremely excited to be able to rejoice in the new birth with me so of course I accepted her invitation with pleasure and great joy!

Maddie is a darling and I spent a fantastic hour just getting to know Teresa better =) I met her husband Dan for a little while before I had to regretfully leave!

very first uni exam...

I had my very first uni exam today for psychology -_-" it wasn't a very good feeling... had a 'no eye see' feeling and decided to leave it be...

afterwards i wandered around aimlessly trying to think of the best way to vent my frustrations... considered just going home and sleep -but realised too early for buses to take me home, and not in a mood to walk... considered going to watch a movie -but couldnt' think of a movie i wanted to watch (though i could have watched prince caspian!) finally decided to have a chat with some friends from church x) and on my way to find them i stopped at waaaay too many stops for retail therapy o_O" now my poor poor wallet needs therapy...

miss so many ppl... haven't seen so many close close friends that it hurts ><

i got home and slept for 4hrs ish... so smart of me....

mmm... need to fnish writing this bible study... >< possibly more later xD

I think it's safe to say that it's near impossible to catch-up what's happened since I graduated from High School from this pt... so I won't xD

So much HAS happened, I'm going to give this blog another go -hoping that it doesnt' collapse again- and I'll pretend it never stopped and just continue from here on....

19/6 - PSYC1001 --> 100 MCQs o_O"
23/6 - EDUF1018 --> 2 essays; core topic: curriculum, optional topic -no idea what it'll be on.... am guessing diversity, child protection and professionalism...
25/6 - EDUF1016 --> all the stuff for bio and chem >_<
