Another Chinese New Year?

I should seize this chance to publish a post.

My computer has broken down. More precisely, my router is down. I am unable to access my msn. It has left me dishevelled.

One horrifying incident I would like to put on record would be that of cutting my hair. I paid a hefty TEN bucks for a quality cut at QB Cube. I told her to trim/thin the top but she ended up snipping it all off. I don't really think I look good, but it's ok I guess.

Well, after weeks of ambivalence and contemplation, I have concluded with SMU. There has been no clear reply from the Lord. The next best move for me would be to go to the school of my choice! What's more, they'e been pushing for my matriculation. Been thinking of using their MEGA-gym as well. Well, that's pretty much about it for now.

Chinese New Year: Ang Pows, feasting, feasting, feasting and feasting. Actually, I only went visiting on the first day (ie sunday). It has been fun seeing all your relatives grow older OR bigger.

ok, so much for blogging. Some intermittent thoughts here and there.

Blogskins

I have been searching for a blogskin for quite sometime. I took some extra effort yesterday night since I arrived home early from Lau Pa Sat. (For those of you at TTSH thinking that we went to United Square and vice versa, well, you’re wrong!) The food there was ok, it was a refreshing change from the monotonous routine of going to Novena. Just a side note: Novena’s foodcourt is finally closed! Phew! Finally! Someone who actually notices that food served there isn’t exactly very palatable. Well, back to blogskin searching. I went online and did a search. I spent almost 45mins browsing and viewing skins that people have created. Alas. I found none that suited my taste. Blogskin’s cruel and unforgiving hand sucked that 45mins without giving me anything in return. I concluded that I would stick with the simple plain green design provided by blogger.com. That’s pretty much all for tonight.

And the God who spoke, is speaking still!

Wow, God really speaks! I am utterly and totally awed. Realized after doing quiet time last night that I had looked to much to myself. I was inward-looking. I focused on what was going on within me and didn’t offer God a chance to speak. Well, thank God for quiet time. Hah. Guess what, my dearest Daddy whispered words of encouragement. He told me not to worry and to put my trust in Him. Realised that that was really my root problem – lack of trust! Wow.

So there ya have it. I still don’t really know which university to go, albeit NTU seems to be the prompting in my heart. However, thank the good Lord He enabled me to see beyond myself. I guess, sooner or later He will show me the way. Just have to put my faith in Him. Well, at the end of the day if He doesn’t say anything, I’d probably go SMU. So there ya have it. Period.

My predicament

I need to go pick up my brother from school in approx. 15mins; thought I would seize the chance to blog, lest I lose the desire to. I am seriously distressed. I am so internally unstable. I can’t decide which university to go. Just went down to SMU to ‘catan’ with some of the older ones. And boy, it sure felt like “the place” for me. Hah. Let’s recap my journey.

It all started when I decided to ask God which university I should go. I felt that it was NTU. It wasn’t exactly like, “Send me Lord, I see the call! I see the barrenness of the land! Send me! I will go. It was more like this little feeling that whispered, “ntu..”

As time went by, I gave serious thought to this issue. All along, I had wanted to go SMU for convenience sake. It’s at cityhall!!! Imagine the VAST difference it would be traveling to the two universities! I can’t possible imagine the countless leg muscles that I would stress on the mrt ride from Boon lay to Eunos. Oh boy, not something I would like to eundure for 3years.

The benefits of SMU are many. Yet, a small niggling feeling in my heart (Actually, it’s the area around the centre of my chest, to be exact. Don’t exactly know whether it’s the heart that’s telling me or some other organ.)

There are other factors as well.

The bottom line still remains: I would really like to be where the good Lord wants me to go. It’s too important a decision to let my own flesh take control of. Oh well, I shall continue to seek Him..
