This is one of the favourite snacks to munch on during lessons in SOT.
It was introduced to us by Daph.
And we felt in love with it!
And Del bought this for me! tog with a very very encouraging and loving note.
I am just so appalled by the heart she has. =)
Del, I am really thankful for this. Appreciate it truckloads.
Thanks for even wanting to come and visit my mum personally.... =)

Christopher Lee (as teased by Ting and girls) is buying me a blackberry of my choice.
I was telling him that I want the cheapest which cost around $300+.
And together with my phone trade in,
it can cut at least $200.
But one thing that he said that I really want to pen it down.
"Then buy the latest one.
Since when did I not give you the best that you want?"
These are golden words to me.
They can last me feeling loved for days!
My limited edition red ipod,
my laptop,
my phone,
my polaroid....
All from him!
except for my camera. hehe.
I am decided between BB bold or curve.
Both got fair share of good and bad reviews.
But they definitely win over BB storm.
I am feeling very blissful!
I am catching "He's just not that into you" online just now.
Good movie.
Really cried.
One part that really touches me is when Ben Affleck proposed to Jennifer Aniston...
He tricked her into throwing his favourite pants away..
and instructed her to check for personal items in his pants...
then she found a pair of ring.
and he kneel just right beside her and say,
"I love you so much, so much.
and I want to make you happy.
I need to make you happy.
For me to even have a shot at being happy.
Will... you.. marry... me..?"
tears in Jennifer Aniston's eyes....
And in my eyes............
Watch it! hehe.
alright, back to reality. =)

A hamper that put a smile as well as a shock on my mummy's face.
shocked - "so many Eu Yang Sang!" (and my sister went to check.. it cost $93!! OMG!!)
smile - "she is so nice.."
My mum thought Jiayi was my pastor. OMG.
Because she really dressed like one.
Sleek and sexy. LOL.
I am happy!
Mum is eating much better and sleeping well.
Today was the first time in my life that I am feeding my mum.
And every mouth she took, made me really pleased.
Also, massaged her feet and back with olive oil moisturiser.
like how a filial daughter would. Hehe. Proud of myself.
And Jiayi really took time to spend quality time with me.
Which I really appreciate. That is my love language!
The talk with her was really fruitful.
It made me sat down and pray after she left.
Until, I just feel that God is just beside me.
I just pray for myself, family, zhiwei and cell group.
Sat there, and just write all of the things Holy Spirit impress in my heart.
And it came to nearly a whole page of my notebook.
This period is not a period for me to withdraw from God.
Instead, it gives me even more time to draw near to Him.
More than the physical and coincidental,
everything happened for a purpose.
I am just filled with the peace of God all over again.
that peace that surpasses all understanding.
surpasses all fear, situation...
Jiayi, thank you for being that channel for God to speak to me. =)
This hamper made my sister smile.
Her colleagues actually made a special delivery for her to my mum.
My sis was examining the hamper for a few moment.
I think my sister is really touched. =)
Zhiwei came straight down after service.
in spite of him nursing sore throat, fever and flu.....
He still succeeded in bringing so much joy to me.
He said that his job is to cheer me up in times like these.
And I am really thankful for him.
Anyway, my bday present is set. hee.
Either a blackberry or iphone from him! =)!!!!! double YIPPEE!!!!
Honestly, when I see JY uses a blackberry... I am so stirred to buy one!
because it so damn chio, and she looks like a serious career woman.
Iphone seem to be a lil kiddyish.
Not too sure about it yet.
But one thing that really made me smile is that,
Zhiwei told me that I am gonna be really happy on my bday itself. =)
Anyway, I felt really bad for reprimanding him for being sick. arghs.
I am just such a unreasonable girlfriend.
Below is the bday card I made for him,
not fantastic la.
But it's my own effort!
last but not least,
I am thankful for all the smses from all you guys!
It really remind me alot about His thoughts for me.
And Elise, with 3 smses coming in subsequently,
I don't find it lor sor.
Instead, I feel really loved by it. =)
Going for service tmr!
Am giving Z and W bs before svc.
and I don't feel dreadful about it.
I just want to bless!!!
That's what SOT is for.
It is for you to bless another life with what you've got these 5 months!
that is my revelation when I am in the hospital.
It made me so stirred.
In His will.

Time seem to slow down it's pace for me right now.As I look at my mum,
I began to think about the past.
How she took 2 odd jobs to take care of the family.
Giving us the best, and leaving the least for herself.
She don't have any friends, church members or relatives to visit her.
Her life have always been really lonely.
Her husband failed her.
No one to love her dearly.
When I talk about love,
I think my sister knows best.
She massaged my mum day and night.
Her legs, hands and back.
Instructed me to fan her back as it is really warm.
She kept telling me that she regretted not bringing her to Japan to see Sakura this year.
Well, I can only say that I am feeling very wrenched now honestly.
My mum can't even take care of herself now.
And, I really thank God that I stayed with her throughout today.
Her oxygen mask kept falling out,
her needles misplaced,
no appetite for the food in hospital.
The patient sleeping next to her told me that my mum had trouble sleeping in the middle of the night,
And she has been calling in the doctors and nurses.
This one thing that she will never reveal it to us that she is suffering.
I am just tired.
Physically is one thing.
but seeing how my mum struggles to live...
that's one thing that I can never shake it off my mind.
I just hate to see her struggling to live.
want to thank Elise and Huishan for coming down to pass me these...
It means alot to me. Especially when Elise told me the reason why they bought the birdnest.
And the prayer made for me is something I really need Elise.
Thank you for always being there for me.
even when I have left cg for so long, not blessing you guys in any way.
really appreciate it.
even though I don't understand why the magnitude of your love...
but, to me, I am always humbled by the love you girls give.
it is always at times when I am down and out.
When i really need it.
During period like this,
you began to realize physical presence is very important.
I can never understand the importance of it until this season of my life.
And I start to repent for not being there for people in the past!
Zhiwei is running a high fever today.
I just hope he recovers soon!
I miss Weiting.
really need someone to chill and let out my emotions.
Just to de-stress and relax for a moment.
everyday have been so tense.
Ting, come back soon!
Gilston have been really a great help too.
He smsed me this morning to offer his help...
"though weiting is not around, but I am. =)"
He initiated car rides or bring any thing to the hospital if I need any.
He really sees the need people seldom sees.
And I am really blessed to have my BFF's boyfriend being so understanding.
Heading down to old town tmr morning to get my mum's coffee and ipoh horfun.
Hopefully, that will make her eat better.
When I read my blog yrs later,
I want to remember the goodness of people around my life.
They are from God.
And Zhiwei is right,
just give her the best care now,
and not think too much.

My sister is seldom this sweet.
She actually made this for me at Toa Payoh.
Jo, Wl, Reeve and Shiheng came to my place just now
and pass me a card.
The card put a smile on my face. =)
They make W193 a very loving home.
Sweet. =)
Ting and Gilston came to the hospital and pass me these.
Ting said, "it makes you happy mah!"
And tears just roll down from my mum's eyes when Gilston prayed for her in Chinese.
I am really really touched by the gesture and thought by the both of them. =)
Great couple.
And my mum too, I believe.
And thanks for all the smses.
JY, Peggie, Joyce, Elise, Eunice, Daphanie, Michelle, Chiying and Verene...
Every sms just reminds me that I am not alone.
Thanks for all the prayers made.
My mum is riding on all of the prayers.
And Eunice, your sms really spoke to me.
I believe Holy Spirit spoke to you about me. =)
Thanks for tt sms that lifted me up immediately.
Last but not least,
Dear,
thanks for coming straight down.
and cheering me up in times of crisis.
Bringing me to coffee club and eat.
spending time w me.
I think it's only with you,
that I am able to laugh and feel burdened at the same time.
Thank You for sending Your amazing bunch of people to my life. =)
Mum will be healed.

At Changi now.For the first time in my life,
ambulance came to my place.
And it's at 3am in the morning.
For the past 3 days,
I had 2 traumatic experience w my mum.
always thought that she was near dead.
She is in ICU now.
Looking at the state she is in now,
it always bring tears to my eyes.
I really need prayers...
I finally understand how it feels like to have ur loved one hospitalized.
The feeling is unexplainable.
When I hear how Ian's dad has bypass surgery,
I just pass it off as another operation.
TV serials have always make it so plain and normal.
Now then I go through this myself...
I understand how it felt.
You just feel helpless, not knowing what else you can do.
Helpless.
I just want her to be recover.
And never be back here again.
It has taught me a big lesson on treating my body right while I am still young.
Your body start getting all the complications at an old age.
And it is not painless.

Everything's so last minute!!I am instructed to lead worship for Sat's svc!
I don't even know if it's a youth svc..... which I think it is, by their svc timings.
O man, good leadership determines everything!
The people there are as modern as us.
Not as what you imagined to be; villagers-like.
They wear ed hardy too!
And their website is solid one.
when I look at that,
I began to think of myself as a grasshopper.
Man, I must see myself as a GIANT now!!
GIANT GIANT!
I am also given the chance to preach to the P1-5 children!
I really want them to feel special.
God, let us be a blessing there!
It is really by faith.

Yesterday's meeting was really a good beginning.Love of God was surrounding me, touched me.
I just feel so overwhelmed.
A message so simple, yet it is often a blind spot we failed to discover.
Love never fails.
W193 will be a cg of love.
More love!! =)
We will be.
Not giving up!!
