Sisters

If you don’t understand how a woman could both love her sister dearly and want to wring her neck at the same time, then you were probably an only child.  ~Linda Sunshine

A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves – a special kind of double.  ~Toni Morrison

A sibling may be the keeper of one’s identity, the only person with the keys to one’s unfettered, more fundamental self.  ~Marian Sandmaier

Sisters annoy, interfere, criticize.  Indulge in monumental sulks, in huffs, in snide remarks.  Borrow.  Break.  Monopolize the bathroom.  Are always underfoot.  But if catastrophe should strike, sisters are there.  Defending you against all comers.  ~Pam Brown

Spent half a day at the OHF booth with this girl around, more like trying to be Kaypoh… Not really helping…

The StanChart experience

“In marathons, everyone starts on equal footing. You realize that we’re really all the same people.”

Fresh before the run!

Fresh before the run!

I think what makes it different for everyone is the process towards reaching the goal. For me, I wanted to finish the race to prove to myself that I can finish what I plan to do. Well, I did finish it, just a little off my target of 2 hrs 5 mins. I got it done in 2 hrs 14 mins instead. Still, 3 cheers for myself!

I must say the best part of the race is the ending. Nothing beats the part of crossing the finishing line. Because of this, I think I will go back to run again.

Finishing medal!

MDIS Buddies

There is 101 reasons that made me super worried before I got into MDIS business course. So many questions flooded my mind, and there are so much uncertainties. The first term has definitely got its ups and downs. Despite the very challenging and competitive environment, I am thankful for the few friends who stick it through with me.

Deborah the very ‘dao’ cha bor – For being real and kind.
Yvonne aka absolutely bitchy – For being super funny and warm.
Charlie the very big hoohaa person – For being super on-the-ball and helpful.

I should really count my blessings that people like these are around to make life and studies so much better.
Some people come into my life and make life so bitter. Yet some come in, and make life so much sweeter.
I’m thankful for the good and the bad. Without the bad, I might never have appreciate the good.

My Supernova

What could be a better birthday present than a Supernova 7610 right after I lost my initial Hp? The Supernova is a stunningly beautiful handset with an in-built radio, mp4, an amazing personal theme coloriser and a 3.2 megapixel camera. Not mentioning the Nokia7610 Supernovavarious games that has entertained me a fair bit.


Thank you my dear lovely, thoughtful sister who came up with this idea to get a Hp for my birthday gift. You’re simply an irritatingly funny, bothersome, and lazy little princess, who surprise me every now and then with your crazy antics. Sometimes, having a sister can be quite a thorn in the flesh. But sometimes, they simply sweeten up your day and make your days brighter with the little things they do.

Wedding Dinner Conclusion

Wedding dinner is really a time of sumptuous food one after another. And after attending 2 weddings in a row this week, I learned that when attending a wedding…

Rule no 1  – Wear loosely for the extra ’space’.
Rule no 2 – Sit beside someone you like, if possible. You’ll be sitting beside him / her for a long time.
Rule no 3 – Eat and enjoy the show. You pay a lot for this.

Really, I must remind myself not to accept wedding invitations too easily lest I regret it again by boring myself through the whole routine. Next time when/if I have my own wedding dinner, I shall make sure my guests are not bored too. =p

The Meaning of Fellowship

There is something about fellowship that changes the heart.

As Hebrews 10:24-25 says it,

“And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another – and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”

When I give, I receive as well.
When I put others needs first, I am being encouraged too.
When I hear the stories of other unfortunate events, I begin to grow thankful for what I already have.
When I pray for seemingly impossible situations to change, I begin to understand human limitations and God’s power more.

And so, I begin to realize how very important fellowship is, to my own spiritual life. That my heart may not grow cold. That my eyes and ears will continue to be open to what God is doing and will be doing.
