As the dying hours of 2008 pass us by, I pray to God that he will bless and protect My family, Loved ones and Friends for the coming New year. Strength For Myself, to be able to overcome any Obstacles or Challenges that Life may or might throw at me. Perseverance to strive for the Best in whatever Im about to do in the future. His guiding hand for Me and Ross as we pursue our education and our relationship to be much stronger than what it is today.

More Love, Concern,Patience and A Renewed Mind to look things as a feedback rather than a Failure..

Amen.

"See, The former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you." Isaiah 42:9

Hello..Im back again after a few days of staying away online, been out having fun with my family and Ross.

First up, a Quick update about what happened lately...

I spend Christmas Eve at Home with Ross and Fam, It was Fun I can say. Dad managed to contact our other relatives overseas via YM and we chatted for hours :)

Ross also surprised me that day, he pulled out the new moon book (Fresh from Kinokunya) as my extended christmas gift *Happy beams*

After that, Christmas Day itself Me and Ross went to Orchard Road coz I wanted to take a Picture of the lights before its gone haha! and again, met up with my fam for dinner..

Oh yea, I forgot to mention Me and Ross walked from his house which is near jalan jurong kechil all the way to my house for fun. (till today I could not believe that we walked that far!) and to our surprised, We found a bike! Well, it wasn't in a "good" condition so we still need to fix and touch up here and there but I feel happy about it coz Ross' been wanting one and God blessed us and we didn't pay a cent for it.

Today was another happy day for me.. I don't know if Im allowed to tell now, but 1 thing I know is that Its proven and tested..I Found the Man thats meant for me, The man that I deserve and accepts me for who I am.

Im happy that Man is very serious about me and our relationship.. Daring enough to take it to the next level.. Sweetie, Im the luckiest Girl in the world. I Love You. :D

I signed in into my Facebook account as usual, checking my profile and replying people's messages on my wall when I saw this..

The handiwork of Ross' Mom.. hahahahahahahahaha! Gosh, she's so cute! Its a carrot by the way. This also happens to be sleeping next to Ross' dad. I think she's trying to be funny.

Favourite line from Juno:

Juno : I just need to know if it’s possible for two people to stay happy together forever, or at least for a few years.

Mac MacGuff : It’s not easy, that’s for sure. Now, I may not have the best track record in the world, but I have been with your stepmother for 10 years now and I’m proud to say that we’re very happy.

[Juno nods]

Mac MacGuff : In my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person will still think the sun shines out your ass.

Christmas is round the corner and I'm happy about it.. here's why

Its my first time celebrating it with Ross
Ross' Mom and Dad gave me red pocket as their gift and I never expected that at all.
I feel special :D
Im gonna bake something for christmas :)
There's NO NEED to jump start my brains for school.( for now that is)
Mc Fly Songs make me happy now..lalala
A time for me to relax and have fun.
Glad to know that the people around me are doing GREAT.
Happy that I learned a lot of things like how to deal with people and how to react properly when it comes to certain issues.
I am STRONGER now.
I am still surrounded with Awesome people that Cared a Big deal for me like My family, Ross, Ross' family, Nick, Audrey, kathy...etc.
This christmas would be different compared to the previous years
I know there's better and bigger things ahead for me.

*big sigh* I feel so blessed..

I must admit....

I find this real ADORABLE! :)

I remember, I used to have an obsession with Hello kitty and Barbie Doll when I was a kid and I make sure my parents would buy it for me. ( Such A brat eh?) But obviously now, It toned down already because I realised its completely unnecessary..

Do you believe this painting was done by an 8-year old?

Her name is Akiane Kramarik. She has this marvelous artistic gift that enabled her to begin painting pictures so real at such a young age. She paints from her God-given dreams and inspiration. I'm not making this up. She said so herself.

How do you explain such a talent? Was it upbringing? Was it genetically modified? Was she drilled and taught?(She learned herself btw) You can't. To me, there's only one explanation, and His name is God.

On days like these, I'm glad He's left traces of Him around us and in people... so I'm reminded that He's real.

Its one of those days where you sit down and reminisce where you've came from and where you start learning more about yourself by interacting with other people..

It all began with them..

I missed home school life.. but the BIG reason is coz of these GREAT PEOPLE..

its going to be 4 years soon and I'm happy that our friendship is still strong as ever.. You guys are the best companions that world could ever ask for..

Nick,

Thank you for being my first ever guy best friend.. My net, sms buddy , home schooled daddy and big brother.. Thank you for being my listening ear and for not judging me even when my flaws were so obvious) really appreciate the times that we shared.. the tears and joy. Im happy that You trust me with your secrets, frustrations, problems..etc and Yes its still sealed. haha!

All in all Im happy to be a part of your life nixie.. You're the bomb.

Audrey Kathy Joy and Shana,

I love u sakaii's to the bones, lungs,my liver,gall bladder,kidneys and heart.. I have to thank you most for being one of my greatest forms of encouragement just by being who you are. For always believing in me that I can do things beyond my limitations.. For always tolerating me and correcting my mistakes with love, although I can be stubborn sometimes. My dears, we had our fair share of misunderstandings but I guess, it's not God's plan for us to separate paths coz till today we still make up and laugh it all off.. Im happy you both treasure me the same way I treasure you guys.. Best friends forever? :)

p.s. I still remember how YOU guys try to make me talk during my first months in school, I was shy and You guys were really outgoing. Love!

Before I end, I just have one more Person to give full credit to...

Dear God,

You are simply amazing. I cannot thank You enough for loving me

and believing in me this much in spite of my flaws. I thank You for providing for my every need, I thank You for the desires and passions which You have placed in my heart,

I thank You for fulfilling the promises You've given, I thank You that I'm never alone because You have given me the greatest friends anyone could ever ask for, and even when they're not there, I know that everything is alright because You still are. You will never leave me nor forsake me, You love me too much to leave me hanging.

I know that you hold my world in Your hands and that You have a plan and purpose for my life and the lives of each of my friends. What You have put together, no man can separate. And only You can take away what You have given because it is Yours.

And with that, I say... have Your way in us.

lotsa love,

rick

Im a sick kid.

I started having fever on Tuesday evening, right up to today. I've spent most of my time sleeping it off (not some of my favorite sleep memories) for more than 12 hours a day. My throat hurts.I couldn't breathe properly..

I didn't really get to enjoy myself today (Me and Ross wanted to go Mount faber to explore, but ended up going home early.)

Being sick can be fun, or not so fun.

When your body finally tells you to slow down, it can be a valid reason to take a nice break. Especially with people concerned about you and pampering you, it can make you not want to get well again.

On the other hand, when you feel so bad that you can't even enjoy the perks, all you want is a speedy recovery. And right now, when I'm in between bouts of sleep (which don't even make me feel refreshed at all) Gosh flu and fever be gone.. gone!

hello hello.. Yep last saturday Ross and I went to Fort Canning Green for the Chunk fest.. loads of people were there.. kindda crowded. It felt like the world was getting smaller in a sense that people of different colors were there.. So yea, it sounds like a international event. LOL

The weather was half ass sunny and rainy..Ground was wet and muddy.. but we had fun. Its been awhile since we last cam whored and Im real happy that we both managed to chill.. :)

but annoyed at the fact that my shoe was full of mud.. *looks shoes with disgust* oh well, at the end of the day, I say we went there to have a taste of Ben and.... MUD! haha but its alright.

I reached home, turned on my Macbook as soon as I could and there it was... *BIG BEAMS* twilight movie was already out in one of the movie websites where I normally watch. :)

Sadly, picture quality not so awesome but still not too bad for the eyesight.. The movie was awesome x20~

However, There were some parts that they didn't really show in the movie and wasn't elaborated compared to the book..eg. How desperate Mike is trying to get bella's attention and how he despise Edward for interrupting into the picture and stuff like that.. Oh yes! how Bella fainted in biology class while they were doing the blood testing..and how she questions herself about Edward's real identity as a Vampire..all the clues..links..that points to him after Jacob Black told her the "Scary Stories about the COLD ONES".. its kindda predictable and jumpy though.. I think its because I read the book first thats why.. haha My bad. Overall, the movie was 4/5 for a love story that is between a Mortal and a Vampire..

and Yes, I haven't finish reading the book yet now at chapter 9.. It's been a week since I last bought the book so yea, you can tell Im taking my time reading it. haha! :) But its an awesome book,and Im happy It caught my attention and I bought it. *two thumbs up!*

Hmmmm... random remark: I love the weather that spore's experiencing right now..Rainy and Chilly..A perfect time to sit,cover one's self with a blanket and sip a cup of Hot cocoa drink...*imagines........

Was surprised with the sudden decision that Ross made when he told me few days ago that he's going to sit for the english test that's organized by the British council as it is necessary, I don't understand why but Ross isn't a Foreigner and He's been speaking ENGLISH ALL HIS LIFE..Oh well, I guess some way.. some how.. people do get Questioned once in awhile be it based on their proficiency or Status that they have or had achieve..

Okay, I promised myself that when Im done here, I'm going to dig my books out and prepare the necessary materials, exercises and books for him to practice on.. I want him to do REAL WELL. (*the sound of a Competitive Girlfriend haha) His test dates will be on 10th january which is the written paper.. and on the 12th is speaking and listening.. whew!! Jia Yu for the both of us.. *slaps back* No time to slack partner. :)

6:28 PM

Sometimes I just wish I can put some people in my world in these few boxes.. GOD! Some are pissing and annoying you off big time, others don't understand that you are Clearly giving the signals to fuck off.. While other cases, Inconsiderate people who don't understand that you, yourself have a life to manage and deal with.. GAHH!! My ramblings..

Anyways, Just reached home from Lot 1.. Chilled in Mc dee's for awhile- away from home, away from everybody else.. gonna continue reading my twilight book afterwards..( I know, I'm so outdated) But what can I do, Not everybody else has the time on their side.. Sigh..
