CNY
Not bad.
Once again, I learnt how to play Bridge. The other day, Wen and friends taught me.. this time I understand it a bit more. Oh well, I know the casinos that we're gonna have in Sg will never really appeal to me. Haha, perhaps only when I go in to reach out to gambling addicts.
Next month, I'm gonna attend a workshop on using cognitive-behavioural therapy for gambling addiction. Will be both helper and participant.
Back to CNY. Met some relatives.. and ya, one of my cousin's back from the States.
After CNY, it's work work work! The readings are piling up!
Nice morning
It's a beautiful Saturday morning! Woke up to find the sun shining and I'm having a good hair day! Superbly good.
Happy Chinese New Year everyone.
Needa write down my goals for 2006.
Wanna M.A.C. lip gloss!
Gotta clean up my room.
Make room for God!
This life
This life can never be lived to the fullest without the presence of God.
This life can never be lived to the fullest without the anointing of God.
This life can never be lived to the fullest without Him giving us a chance to walk in the calling He has given to us.
All of a sudden, Sis Jasline asked me about my love life (ok, the lack of it). I shrugged it off. She told me there's no que sara sara in this. If it's not on my prayer list to God, it is probably not important enough to warrant an action from God. Oh well, I don't know how to respond to that. Awww... Oh I saw my ex-classmate in JC and she's attached! Then I thought, man, everyone's attached. Then I thought, for this time, it's better off being single. Seasons.
This is the year I'm not gonna stop. This is the year I'm gonna breakthrough with God!
Gotta write down my goals and make it plain, the Bible says.
Gonna hand in my social work scholarship application tmr!
Accept No Mediocre Life
I'm back to blogging again.
Am currently reading Accept No Mediocre Life by David Foster (not the one in the music industry).
"You're the one who decides to reject mediocrity as the standard by which you measure your performance." - David Foster.
"If the value of an article is dependent upon the price paid for it, Christ's death made our value skyrocket." - Erwin W. Lutzer, as quoted by Foster.
Had a great gym session yesterday! Thanks to Tiong Kun who orientated me to the gym equipment. I think he'd make a great gym instructor. Put a man in his element and you'll be surprised what he can do! The pain feels good. My body is aching from yesterday's workout.
Am really excited about this year and this semester. Great growth, new direction, new breakthroughs coming my way! God is so good. For the first time in a while, I'm happy again! Like from the bottom of my heart. I really am.
School's not bad too, great project mates and lecturers! I know it's gonna be challenging cos obviously, level-3 modules demand much more. But I will overcome!
I want to be an outstanding social worker in-the-making. It is not volunteer work. It is a profession. As Dr Tim always emphasizes, we need to be guided by theoretical framework(s), not just gut feeling.
Also purposed to speak up more. The people who change the world are the ones who dare to speak up. King David when he was young, spoke up against Goliath. "Who is this uncircumsised Philistine?". Jesus when he was young, was reasoning with the scribes and Pharisees in the synagogue.
There you go. Don't be mediocre. Don't be afraid to be outstanding. Don't blend in. You are not wallpaper. God has created you to be unique. Why do you want to blend in with everyone else and be invisible? You are the light of the world! A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.
