I finally realise that I need to let everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) go.. After all the reminiscing about the recent years of my life, I was just thankful for all the moments that He has got me through. I would seriously never imagine all the events that occurred.
The change from Singapore to Perth which took 9 years of growing up in a different culture, taking hold of the many changes from Primary school to High school and to a final stage of University.
I have gone through heaps of friends and I mean heaps - Year 7 in Nedlands Pri, FGA Church, High School in Kingsway, A tad from NLCC Church and the last stop was Uni in AIUS. And of course there's the usual Family mates and Randoms and Acquaintances from everywhere!
The last year was hard letting go. It was real difficult to just move on to a whole other country which I never thought that would happen, ever! But I'm not implying that Singapore is totally foreign to me, but there's just a difference of "being on holidays" and "living there".
However, A lot has happened within those 2 years and I am most thankful for the last year that I met an amazing God given bunch of awesome people from Church who really impacted and M.A.D (Made A Difference) in my whole entire life that no one has ever done.
Everyday I thank the Lord for bringing these amazing bunch in my life that not only their have created a immense friendship bond, but a out of this world spiritual bond too! They are the ones that made my last months there unforgettable..
Of course not to mention the ones that I've been at Uni (MIS) and Work (MNG). They made my night life a wild experience which was fun while it lasted! Zouk will never be the same without you ladies!
Overall, I realise that life does not end here, life does not start good and end just right there, life brings you on a journey of success, goals and love. Being back in Perth was far most the worse transition ever. The one month I was here was an experience which I do not want to go there again.
But you know what? With that said, I have really felt that I have grew a more intimate and realism relationship with Daddy God. Like each day, I learn to just depend on His word and promises and love that will last me through a life time! I yearn for a heart, mind and soul like His and He is truly, amazingly, awesomely indescribable! No one else can ever compare to Him, the one and only!

'Saviour' by Hillsong
A saviour on a hill dying for my shame
Could this be true?
Defies the world I see
Yet this is all my heart was longing for
To know you my Lord
To know you more…
You deserve, You deserve,
You deserve all the praise…
The heavens wept for you,
the earth cried out:
“Could He be the one?”
For you so loved the world
You gave your only son
To say I love you so
Oh how I love you so…
Hallelujah to the king
Hallelujah we will sing forever…
And all humanity aches to find
This beautiful love you give
We come to you again
To offer up our lives
To worship you alone
To worship you alone…
:: "I Praise You; So Grateful You Came For Me, For What You Done!" ::

Life is all about Second Chances..
Wells I do at a certain point agree with that statement.. But I reckon it's all about the plentiful blessings that God has placed in our lives!
We pray pray pray.. And wait wait wait.. Sometimes things happen.. And Sometimes things don't.. What do we do then?
Of course we would do the normal complaining and whining and bitching about "Why don't we get it!" and "Why doesn't it happen!" That's our usual human trait unfortunately.. Some, (like me) would yearn for a Sweet Escape!
" If I could Escape.. "
" ..Now wouldn't that be Sweet? " ( 'The Sweet Escape' by Gwen Stefani )
But how long though? How long do we want to escape from life? Especially from it's down's?!
Honestly speaking, that was the way I felt for a month already since I was in Perth. That everything good in my life was put to a pause, and the rest is playing on slow mode.
I was beyond the fear.. Beyond the uncertainties.. Beyond the stress.. Beyond the crying.. Beyond the death option, Beyond the roller-coaster ride of emotions.. And beyond livin' in the past that I once had in Singapore..
I must look forward!
After the major breakdown.. I cried out my last tear to God and thanked Him for everything that He has done in my life. All thegoodness that He has caused, placed and bestowed upon me. Then I placed my hand in my heart and said:
" Let not my heart be troubled.. "
" Neither let is be afraid.. "
Once all was said and done, all the worries and depression that was surrounding my heart, departed from me. And what was replaced was His Love, Peace and Joy (:
Jesus I believe in You..
Jesus I belong to You..
Your the reason that I live..
The Reason that I sing..
With all I am..
( 'With All I Am' by Hillsong )
And that was my day like ever since! And you know what?
It is just the beginning of all things good waiting to happen. It is just a season of everything and anything amazing, happy, joyful, blessed and love. And AMEN to ALL of that!
PS: Thank you Daddy, for the second job opening at Sportsgirl. I'm eternally grateful and I praise you for a second chance at it! Whatever happens, happens. My future is left in your hands!
" To God be the Glory! "

Big Girl in a Big World..
I realise that after catching up with some of my old school ladies, it does bring back a bit of high school moments we use to have but in a more 'Mature Version'.
While I was in Singapore for 2 years, the girls have gone through quite a lot that I've missed out on. Most of us got jobs now, married or are gonna-be's and would I say more compose a more 'Womanly Exterior'?
Changes does happen all the time.. As of course we know that it's occurence in our lives can be pretty frequent. Though sometimes our comfort levels are not much there, (with all the fear, uncertainly, worries and what if's) I know that within all that, we're all..
A L.O.G (Lady of God) or W.O.G (Woman of God) is in the making..
Of course who wants to grow up? Your expectancy rates for being right is much higher and you would have to fend for yourself in all situations and challenges by yourself! No more Daddy or Mummy, "It's Just Me!"
Yes, I maybe a Big Girl in a Big World.. But you know what? I'm also a..
Big Girl in a Big World with a Big God!
Now that brings me a tonne of comfort knowing that my Daddy God is watching over me and that He's so big, strong and mighty and..
There's nothing my God cannot do!
(How super awesome is that?)
..how much more you give to me?
..how much more your love for me?
..how much more your heart pours out to me?
..just because you love me!
