Back from UK

I have been neglecting this blog for 3 months! bad dawn!

Haha anyway, went to the UK and now I am BACK!! The trip was awesome, great, magnificent, splendid, wonderful, amazing and all the nice adjectives that exists. Really thank the Lord for this opportunity to go there, feel really blessed to experience it *sniff* Saw lotsa beautiful God's creation, ate lotsa good food, met lotsa ppl (and some shuai ges *wink*) and gotta spend quality time with the family over there...

Too busy at work to update blog, so naturally too busy to upload photos! gah! I promise I will try! Anyway I tendered my resignation, but now they trying to negotiate to get me to work half day or few days a week. we shall see, all in the Lord's hands!

Anyway, two movies that I wanna watch is Mamma Mia! and The Buttefly Lovers which stars Charlene Choi, Wu Zun and Hu Ge ... good movie to watch for eye candy *drools* haha. Apparently its a remake and its their later lives (where there is no such thing in life by the way - one life only ppl!) ... so maybe its not the sad ending of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai!

Apology

Ok everybody, please realize how imperfect and ungrateful a child I am. Really only the Lord can save me!

MAMA!! SORRY!!!

Totally forgot to thank my mum in my birthday post (see below) What kind of unfilial daughter right? So disgusted at myself, mama and Jesus, please forgive me.

FORGIVE ME!!

And thank you mama for the lovely paper card and e card. And the parcel of presents for my birthday which was sent like WAY before my birthday. For all the effort put in to get my presents and send it across the Pacific Ocean and South China Sea and Malacca Straits etc etc.

And for the heart and mind and soul put into everything she does for me, regardless of whether it is my birthday or not.

But most importantly, for giving birth to me and going through all the labour pains ... and waking up at dawn to go to the hospital (thats where my name came about!). Because the Lord set the date and mama gave birth to me, thats why i have a birthday. So really thank you thank you thank you mama ... for everything :)

Happy Birthday to me ...

Hahaha title is a bit thick skin but I didn't know how to title it haha!

Well, I had a really wonderful birthday today!!

Firstly, thank the Lord for creating me and bringing me to this world on this very day. To quote Psalms, "I am fearfully and wonderfully made!" Thank You Lord for seeing me through this exact two decades of my life and never leaving my side! Thank You Jesus for providing me with such a wonderful family, brothers and sisters in Christ and my friends around me!

To roughly quote Avalon, Jesus You are
Everything to me, You're more than a story
More than words on a page of history
You're the air that I breathe
The water I thirst for
And the ground beneath my feet
You're everything, everything to me

Secondly, thank You to my dearest family! Melody for the new Bible, piano playing and snowglobe, Daddy for the French restaurant treat, Ah ma and ah gong for dinner zi cha treat, Sumei for walling on facebook, gugu hedy for wishing and kuma for ang bao!! love you all!

Thirdly, thank You my brothers and sisters in Christ of cell group for the wonderful celebration with lotsa blessings and little pressies! Thanks Kellyn for the food, thanks Josh for being the photographer, thanks baby Lisa for blowing the candle with me haha! and the rest for being present!

Fourthly, thanks to my dearest friends for all the sms wishes and facebook walling!!! Thanks to xq, js and ling for the pre bday celebration with thai restaurant treat, pressies and polar sweet hearts "cake" haha! Thanks to pearlin, melissa, apel etc mdis friends for the upcoming get together lunch this sunday!!

Hugs and kisses to everyone!

Hugs and kisses to Jesus too! To quote Don Moen,
"Where would I be if You have not been by my side
How could I rise to meet the morning of the day?
Your tender mercies always calling from behind
At times I could not see You
Even though You were close by
Lord You are good
You are good and your mercies forever endure ...."

To quote Kungfu Panda,
"The past is history
Tomorrow's a mystery
Today's a gift
Thats why its called the present!"

P.S. Photos up soon!

Exercise - Chapter 1

Hello!!

This series would be according to the book "The Busy Girl's Guide to Looking Great!!" by Caroline Jones. I took some notes from her very useful book and thought that I should share some of the tips with you ladies!!!

Chapter 1

How to get started
~ Plan ahead
~ Fill in exercise slots into your schedule

Reward yourself
~ Choose things that are NOT food based
~ E.g. A new top, read a book, new pair of heels, mask your face, watch drama serial

Benefits
1. More confidence about body and image
2. Reduced stress levels
3. Improved sleep quality
4. Happier and less likely to suffer depression
5. Increased energy levels
6. Brain sharper and faster working
7. Good for your health

Myths that are so wrong wrong wrong!!
X Eat as much as you like if you workout
X Exercise should cause physical pain because no pain, no gain
X Muscle weighs more than fats

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hope that helps with you getting started on your exercise schedule!
And remember, determination, diligence and perseverance is the key!

Pastor preached today ... strive to be like the faithful church of Philadelphia!

"To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write:
These are the words of him who is holy and true
Who holds the key of David.
What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.
I know your deeds.
See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.
I know that you have little strength,
yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan,
who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars
—I will make them come and fall down at your feet
And acknowledge that I have loved you.
Since you have kept my command to endure patiently,
I will also keep you from the hour of trial
That is going to come upon the whole world
To test those who live on the earth.
I am coming soon.
Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.
Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God.
Never again will he leave it.
I will write on him the name of my God
And the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem,
Which is coming down out of heaven from my God;
And I will also write on him my new name.
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
