The simple joys of life...

Ok ok...It's been two weeks since I've blogged...I didn't even realize that my chat box got deleted! And now that I'm having holidays, I can't even use the excuse that I'm busy not to blog...Hehehe...But anyway...I think I had a pretty exciting day today...I was practically out of the house the whole day...
We went to Port Dickson today, Adrian, Sue Yin, Yew Meng and I...Well, it wasn't really for fun but it's more of checking out the campsite...But unfortunately the caretaker's not in and the gates were locked...Imagine that, we drove all the way down there and we couldn't even step into the compound...Oh, by the way Port Dickson's about an hour's drive away...But we had fun at the beach...We weren't exactly playing in the water and all but we were walking along the beach together...Just enjoying the simple joys of life...Ahh...really nice...
And when I was walking along the beach I just recalled the story about when we're down there's only one set of footprints instead of two...That's because when we're down God is carrying us in His arms...And Adrian told me that the title of the story is "Footprints in the Sand"...I think this little trip to PD has reminded me about the simple things in life...You know sometimes things get hectic around us and we just concentrate on getting the things done and we've forgotten all about the simple joys in life...Sigh...
And something miraculous happened while we were praying for Auntie Dai May's introduction to intercession class...She got a group of us young people to get together to pray...And while we were praying I saw fire coming down from the heavens and Sue Ann saw angels standing behind Auntie Dai May who is speaking...Wow...And we both started singing the same song at the same instant...I know it may sound like a coincident but it's not...
On a lighter note, I went furniture shopping with Lai Yee for my new house last week...I think it was quite a fruitful attempt...I managed to get a bed and a shelf...Yippee...Now all that's left is my study table and cupboard...Well...One at a time, one at a time...Yeah...And Sieh Jin's getting married next week...I'm so excited...And I'm going back to Penang for his wedding...It's gonna be fun! But I still can't think of what to wear...Darn...Well...Anyway...That's it for now...
P/S: I was introduced to this really nice Christian band...Jars of Clay...Should go listen to it sometime...

I am free...

Ok, ok...My finals are finally over...And Easter's over too...I'm finally settled down enough to blog again...Yay! Anyway...A little update on the Easter sketch...It went really well...And I believe the sketch did touch a few people in the congregation and they cried...Can you imagine that? Due to our mediocre acting people actually cried? I guess it's because God was working through us...But I'm really glad that they got the message that we're trying to speak through the act...Praise God for that...
On the other hand...I'm rejoicing coz my finals are finally over...Try putting yourself into my shoes...On Monday, nearly everyone I know has finished their finals...But...I was only halfway through...And now...After most people I know have already been five days into their holidays...I'm finally done...Finished...Finito...
Oh, and did I mention that I've decided to sort of do my industrial training in this two and a half months hols? Hence the hunting around for an example of an application letter and cv that I can use to write mine...Oh...About this...I really gotta thank Raph and Wen Li...Thanks so much guys! So by God's grace, I'll be able to get this job and hopefully much experience too...Haha...Kinda looking forward to it...
So I guess that's about it from me...Hope to be able to blog more often now that I'm on holiday...
