a nice end to varsity life.
a conclusion to my 3 years in NTU.
having a nice family potrait taken to commemorate this occasion.
i believe mum's relieved to have one more of us graduating.
in a way. she has one load off her mind.
still, a mum never stops worrying for her children.
and i'm thankful for such a strong mum.
and thank God for walking me through the 3 years.
He has been faithful - the blessings in terms of results, in terms of the whole university experience.
i thank God that i graduate well. i can never forget how got God blessed me with superbly awesome grades for a semester which i struggled very badly.
in the difficult times, God proved His sovereignty and faithfulness.
i stand in awe, really.
and with the graduation, a nice family potrait taken. :)
a fresh start to working life.
the transition - i wouldn't say it's easy.
i probably would have gone crazy without the grace of God.
i thank God for the favour He has shown.
it's really amazing.
the times i just have small gifts from managers or fellow colleagues that just bring such encouragement and smiles. especially when it's the stressful peak.
i thank God for His strength to see me through.
i was really worn out during the November peak.
but God saw me through.
a tough season but it was reassuring knowing that God is faithful to see me through every season.
and of cos. there were various moments of fun, which i really enjoyed.
a wonderful display of God's faithfulness.
being involved in the RAW camp as a prayer co-ordinator really opened my eyes to see the hand of God moving through prayer.
the weather, the move of God during the services, the whole preparation phase, etc.
many many things that i just can't stop thanking God for.
it's a fresh RAW start from there.
authentic - get real.
consecrate - set apart for the Lord Almighty.
first love - make me a woman of passion for the things of God.
transform - change me to be more like Jesus.
a great missions experience.
going to Philippines was something i had wanted to when i first became a Christian.
and the 2 weeks there was an eye-opener.
the lessons learnt.
taking steps out of being fearful of the opinions of others.
seeing how privileged i am in Singapore.
realising the need to lay down my pride.
learning to watch out for others.
allowing God to teach me to be a prayer warrior.
many many more things which i need to really take time to ponder over.
i shall add on to this when i'm done taking time to reflect.
reflect upon in preparation of this year of increase - 2009. :)
"i will run. i will soar on eagle's wings. as i wait on You Lord, my strength is restored."
anyway. a summary of the key changes during this 3 months.
i went for the company's dnd and recognised that i am really not those who likes functions.
i got a drastic hair cut.
i went through a crazy November peak with 10 pm end work timings for one week and 11 pm ones for the week after.
i went for the most awesome camp ever - RAW!
i had time to catch up with linda and chiew lin at crystal jade la mian xiao long bao on a weekday evening. (it was ages since we last met!)
i tried being chibi maruko chan (which nobody has any idea what it is) at the C party.
i went shopping with peishan at ikea. and we got quite crazy there. (finally we met up!)
i had a fun baking session with the cell group and a lunch get-together on Christmas eve.
i had fun celebrating Christmas.
i got rather put off by an unreasonable mercz driver who kicked up a fuss over a scratch.
i enjoyed playing blind mice, polar bear (still remember the 6a days?) at the leaders' retreat.
it was a superb thanksgiving ceremony.
i'm quite lazy to get all the photos up. so this shall look like a wordy update. haha.
i shall try to update more frequently so that i won't put myself off posting photos.
