♥ The update
It's been five months since I posted on here... my bad!
If you didn't know, I have a tumblr which I update way more regularly.
Well what's been happening! The usual really. Uni.... and well, yeah, Uni. I don't even work at VF anymore. And I only work at RD during school holidays.
I am so behind at uni! I'm like 12 lectures behind. It was 21 at the beginning of this week... Need to catch up. ASAP. Then start studying. ASAP. Because exams are just around the corner, and I really don't want to be stuck with another SUPP. Had enough of those silly things.
Today is Josh's birthday. It's a bit weird that I'm not with him celebrating. But I'm pretty sure he's getting drunk right now in Derby... Those country people sure now how to drink haha. And I'm pretty sure Josh has been slowly losing his asian roots daily.
So I went to see Josh over Easter in Derby, and got to meet all the locals. Had a great time in Broome relaxing and chilling. Josh's idea of spending time together is a bit odd... He realized that netball was on TV, and he wouldn't budge from the couch until the game had finished... like an hour later. Sigh! But other than that, we had a great time with the sixth years who were there on rural GP and also came to Broome for the long weekend, and the other RCS students and doctors there.

Also got to spend a day with An, and he took me up in the air and it was a great flight! Got to see horizontal falls which was beautiful.
It's been about 2 months now since I last saw Josh. And it's been pretty easy going. Uni's been keeping me busy, but I do miss having him around. But he'll be back in just under a month now so it's all good!
Had like a week long celebration for my birthday this year. Semi because Josh wasn't around and I felt like just surrounding myself with friends haha.
Had family dinner on my actual birthday. Drinks with the high school guys the following night. Then on the Friday had like a laid back chill arvo sess with the med kids, following by a river cruise where we totally owned the dance floor.
I've been really enjoying the company of my med friends lately. I think having travelled with them over summer, it's open up many opportunities to just to get to know them better. And they're really great fun! I think I struggled in first year to really find people I connected with or got along with. But now, finding common things like sport and SMA has really opened up doors.
Anyways. This year has been a year of change. Not just for me. But for those 'core' / 'major' people in my life - J, A, C & L. claj? jlac? lacj? hurhur.
It seems like in each of their lives, there's been a massive change. Whether it be them physically or emotionally or spiritually... or in their environment.
It's been weird. Because these people are usually so stable and constant in my life. That these changes have affected me. And even more so that ALL of them have something going on. And it's upset me, before. Because I love them, all, so much. And when they hurt, so do I. But also I was upset that everything was changing, so quickly.
And J had to remind me that the only true constant in my life is God, and He is my rock, and my assurance. And despite all these changes and things happening in the lives of those I love, I trust that God's hand is over every situation, and that His plan is far greater than what I can merely see with my own eyes.
Oh yeah, and IMPACT happened this year too. The lead up was crazy. Especially being on committee. Sometimes I just get so frustrated with people... and it's because in my mind I believe that I can do certain things better and more efficient. But I am continuously reminded of my role as a servant leader. To step back and to encourage others to step up and learn and grow. How will they ever learn if you do not give them the opportunity to? Even if it takes twice or three or four times as long... They've gained the experience from that - and that's valuable.
IMPACT was great! Amazing! I think they really hit on good topics, especially things associated with 'studying medicine' and being a 'doctor'. Things that I didn't really think of before, like how easy it us to let our ego get the better of us. And again, a great opportunity to build on existing friendships! And I think reiterate my desire to head into the mission field in the future. I'm glad I've found a partner who shares the same passion and goals!

♥ 10.01.2013
The exam went well! And the lead up to it was great. I had a great sleep and woke up early without my alarm even going off. Usually if I'm stressed I don't sleep very well. But I was quite calm and ready!
Did two fitness classes in two days - 'cardio workout' then 'flex and stretch'. Surprisingly I am mostly in pain from flex and stretch. My calves are burning like crazy. I was meant to do kickboxing today but I cancelled it. Just way too exhausted. And in too much pain.
The boyfriend has started packing for Derby. Yes! He leaves in 19 days. So quick! Ill also be flying off to Malaysia and Singapore on the same day for a few weeks, which should serve as a good distraction.
My schedule has quickly filled up with dinners and brunches and catch ups. Oh and beach. Heart beach.
My room is still under construction. Really need to start cleaning it up and sorting everything out. Lots of stuff is still outside from when dad painted my room. It's everywhere in the house really.
Anyways. I have a tumblr which I keep updated much more regularly. If you're interest, here it is: s2ditz.tumblr.com

♥ Worship
Giving God His worth.
For the past two worship nights they have put forward the question of 'how do you privately/personally worship God'
And it was quite a difficult question for me to answer, because my old way of thinking was that worship = music = song. But I now know that worship can mean an array of things, and it doesn't have to be singing or playing an instrument - both of which I am terrible at.
In an everyday setting, it's mainly when I reflect on things that have happened or just on how things are, that I am reminded of how amazing our God is. The intricate details of how our human body is made, or looking back and seeing how God carried me through that difficult situation.
But really, I've been thinking... And I don't believe that I am giving God His worth in my day to day life.
I really don't worship him enough. And you know, it's not that now I need to start worshipping and praising him more - because that perspective turns it into a 'work'. But rather, I know how AMAZING our God is - and I've realized I don't appreciate him enough! It comes as an overflow - it's beautiful, really.
I can draw parallels in my own relationship with J. I love him, and I know he likes it when I cook. So I bake - but not because I have to but rather I'm happy to do it because I know it pleases him and that makes me pleased too. I don't have to bake for him to love me. There have been times where I do things and I expect him to appreciate it or I expect him to do something in a particular way - and really those times I haven't been acting out of an overflow of love and grace.
Enough about J. Back to God - I want to give Him praise. I want to worship Him. This desire to give Him His worth - it's just flowing out of me.

♥ He got it!
So J got into Rural Clinical School! Hooray!
He'll be off to Derby for the whole of next year.
So let me remind you how far Derby is...
It's not too bad... it's just under a 3 hour plane ride...
Ugh, I'm still getting my head around it to be honest. But I really am so happy for him. I know how much he wanted it. And I'm so proud of him for getting through, he really blitzed that interview :)

♥ Vision
Our recent lifegroup retreat was about vision - dreaming big, getting rid of those boundaries that we set ourselves, and letting God take us to places we "only dream of"
At lifegroup on Friday, Leon lead us through some reflections about our vision and the steps we take to get there. We got into pairs and I was next to Josh, and it made it realize me realize a few things.
Firstly, that we have the same vision for our lives. And this was not something that we decided on together after we got together, but rather something that God individually put on our hearts, even before we met.
Now to me, I've never really actually just sat and thought about that - how awesome it is that we share identical visions for our lives. It just really just reminds / amazes me how God brought us together. And it just re-confirms that this is the guy I want to spend the rest of my life with.
Sharing the same vision, makes a lot of things a lot easier... ours plans, our training, our preparation... it's like we're know what we are passionate about, the things we want to do and see ourselves doing, and we know God is going to take us there.
In the meatime, this is the journey - we're on our way.
P.S. Tumblr has been getting more regular updates - dt's tumblr. Simply because that's my more public blog / photo stream and this blog is more private :)

♥ Everything is good!
How many times has someone asked you how you were and you simply replied "good."
Most of the time this is our general response, even though it's not always entirely true.
Well life has been actually been pretty good for me.
There were some major management shuffling at work and we got a new manager at work, and I've been worried about losing my job due to my low availability and my not-so-fantastic sales record.
But I've seen God's favour has really come through at work. My new management is so nice, he's always dishing out comments like "I'm so proud of you guys", "good job man", "wow you guys are just awesome". And customers who want to sign up with new contracts have just been coming to me!
G has asked me to join mission subcom, and last night she told me more about the role and what they do etc, and it's something I really see myself doing. It's quite funny that their 'need' at the moment is more admin based which is exactly what I am good at / enjoy. I'm just not too sure yet how I'm going to fit it in with everything and what I'm going to drop... I'm hoping I can cut down on hours at work because it's not really a priority for me at the moment.
But yeah I think I just need to sit down and figure out where all my time is going! I'm probably not as efficient as I should be.
I'm only 2 lectures behind, which is good!!!! Getting up at 8am - as much as I hate it, has been way more productive than sleeping in / sleeping late...
Exams next week, but before that, our 21st celebration!!! Woooo!
Off to lectures!

♥ Scandalous
UWA has been in the media quite a bit lately in regards to their O-camp related activities, otherwise known as Fresher camps.
Now for a majority of older students, I'm sure we've heard about what goes on during these camps... but I think these articles really just hit me in the face. I know it's the media, it's probably sensationalised. But even just the idea that this kinda stuff is happening just really shocks me. I just did not realize the extent these camps went to... and honestly, it's just simply disgusting.
And I can't imagine how some freshers felt when they didn't really know what they were signing up for. And even though people say they know what they're signing up for - do they really? Are they able to make good decisions while being surrounded by peer pressure and the influence of alcohol.
What saddens me even more is some people's response to this "scandal". I was reading the article in *the West* and you know, this is serious stuff - rape and sexual assault is not a light matter. We're talking about the well-being of many young individuals - physically, mentally and emotionally.
Sigh, seeing people react to this issue in ways like below, really just makes me cringe. It's no wonder people have lost hope in our generation.

♥ rural
J told me yesterday that he wants to spend next year going rural.
My immediate response went something like…
What?! What for? Why? A WHOLE year?
His reason was that he would gain a lot more experience going rural, than staying in the city.
So? What about all your responsibilities? SMA? Leadership at church? What about ME? What about US?! No. You can’t go!
I called him selfish. I called him inconsiderate. How could he only think about what he wanted, and not think about everything else?
Last night I really struggled with the idea. I wished I could be that good girlfriend who would say YES, Go! I support you!
But I DIDN’T want him to go, I was scared at the fact he was even considering it. A whole year? This could mean breaking point for us. Surely whatever you gain from going rural isn’t THAT great. I mean plenty of doctors don’t go rural and end up fine…
Reality was, I was being selfish. I didn’t want to let him go because I would miss him. I wasn’t thinking about what he wanted, what was best for him - I was focussed on my own insecurities.
At Church today I talked to G, and when I told her that J was considering going rural, her immediate response was ‘that’s GOOD!’ She told me about the benefits of going rural, the difference you can make in the community, the range of things you learn and gain from the experience, and how much you can grow…
She challenged the idea that we become doctors to help people - but it’s so easy to forget it along the way - we focus on moving up the hierarchy in the medical world - from graduating from med school, to intern years, working your way up in hospital, specialising… She talked about being comfortable and content with where we are, that it’s easy to just get so tied up with what we’re doing, that we forget the bigger picture, what we really wanted to do as doctors.
But there’s just something about being rural… that I don’t like. I’d love to go overseas and work there for a year. But being in rural Australia - I don’t know what it is… I just… don’t like the idea of it.
But back to J. I know it would benefit him so much. It would give him some amazing experience. It will challenge him, and he would learn so much from it and essentially be a better doctor. Not only that, it will help him grow as an individual - to be more independent.
I’m still getting my head around the whole thing. But now I feel like I have a better idea of how beneficial it is for him, both as a future doctor and an individual.
Letting him go is the hardest part.

♥ tumblr
decided to jump on the bandwagon (quite late.. i know) and get tumblr.
mainly because it wanted something separate from my private blog, but something not so public as my facebook to ramble about daily happenings.
the mobile app makes it super easy to post daily things too.
yay :)

♥ Wasting time
yesterday i had a tute from 8 -10am, then dropped the car off at mum's office and went to work.
but then i left my laptop in her office and went home after work... not only was it just my laptop but all my work too... so yesterday i pretty much spent the night doing nothing useful.
anyways today i went for brunch with louis. beforehand he dropped off his guitar that he doesn't use so that i try to learn.. if i get around to it. haha. we even sung a few worship songs before we left for brunch. it was good to just loosen up for a bit mid-week.
we ate at The Ingrediant Tree today - nomnomnom!
Went to uni after, and did some work in the Eng labs - geez freshers are annoying and loud.
Dropped by the city on the way home and had a chat the lady at bobbi brown. She was lovely and matched me up with the right foundation. Going to add that to the shopping list for the parents when they go to Malaysia - nyehehe.
Also purchased this off ebay (for half the retail price!)

♥ The Chord
On the phone with josh last night, i struck a chord.
Josh has this way of getting on people's nerves because he always just gives them his opinion on things. Or he just questions everything - why people are doing things, why they believe that, why you like this... etc. And a lot of the time, his questions don't really come across as neutral, it's like he semi disagrees or disapproves of what you do/think/believe and that is why he questions.
I love him, i really do - he is very honest, sometimes very brutally honest. But he's learning. He's learning to just listen, when I need him to, and not be so.. insensitive.
But back to this whole opinion/questioning thing - whenever he does that to me, i get quite annoyed - or shall i say.. sick of it.. and my answer is always "i don't know?"...... and this annoys him, because he doesn't like that I don't know why I do something or why I believe this or why I like this... and he will keep on questioning me to the point where I'm just like BLAH ~ "just because it is!" or "just because i like to!"
Anyways this 99.9% of the time ends up with me being annoyed at him and not wanting to talk to him because I get sick of his questions. But last night, in slight frustration, I stated what I thought was the obvious - which was, sometimes people don't want to know your opinion, or they don't want you to question their motives because it can come across as you're looking down at them. to which he replied "... BINGO! No one has ever told me that!" (.. yes he's a bit weird, and I was a bit taken back)
Because the truth is, when you aren't close to someone, you are less likely to criticize or question them - because you don't really know them. But when you are good friends with someone, you feel more comfortable with them, and this can sometimes result in being more opinionated (because you're not scared of offending them - but are still likely to do so).
I think speaking truth is a good thing. And so can be questioning as it makes the other person think about things they may not necessarily have thought about by themselves - but it's a lot to do with the way you question someone. It can very often be misinterpreted.
You know, in hindsight, Josh speaks a lot of truth into my life, and I never realize it at the time, but he asks those questions that need to be asked but no one asks. I guess it's just the way he goes about things that can really get to me sometimes!
Maybe I can try to be a better girlfriend, by helping him be better - telling him how he can be better, instead of just getting annoyed at him every time he's blunt, annoying or frustrating, haha.

♥ planning 21st.
planning a 21st is actually insanely time consuming.
i've looked at around 50 venues, sent out at least 30 emails. looked up balloons, caterers, drink menus...
i was super behind in uni work last week as a result, and i'm slowly picking up everything else again this week...
trying to attend 8am lectures because ilecturing becomes extremely time consuming.
i feel so busy! like i just hardly have any time. and really, the whole organizing 21st thing is actually wearing me down, there is actually a lot to do - and josh is too busy to help.
uni this sem is hard too. even though i'm only doing two units. NS is insane. I've done all the lectures but feel like I've absorbed nothing. Gotta get through those notes - they seem to be helpful. Gotta do that soon...
I don't know, despite everything and being really busy with stuff, I don't feel too bad. It's like I know it's going to be okay. Just gotta keep on top of things and not fall behind or let myself get overwhelmed.
It was good to hang out with my ex-tute today. We went to one of their houses and made home-made woodfire pizzas. It was very chill and I'm glad I went - because I was debating whether I should study instead. But I think it was a really good opportunity to spend time with some med kids.
RAWR.

I don't know, despite everything and being really busy with stuff, I don't feel too bad. It's like I know it's going to be okay. Just gotta keep on top of things and not fall behind or let myself get overwhelmed.
It was good to hang out with my ex-tute today. We went to one of their houses and made home-made woodfire pizzas. It was very chill and I'm glad I went - because I was debating whether I should study instead. But I think it was a really good opportunity to spend time with some med kids.
RAWR.

♥ the end of the summer holidays
uni begins again tomorrow! second year! only five years to go... hehe.
had a great weekend - spent it down in mandurah for ry's 21st. it was really good to get away. and just not have to think about work. and not have my laptop with me to do anything work or uni related. we didn't do too much, we weren't there for long but it was relaxing!
on the way down we went to maccas. when we got to mandurah we went to this japanese place that had a high urbanspoon rating. then we went to our apartments and spent some time relaxing in the pool and spa. then we went crabbing and came home and cooked dinner :) pasta (and salad)! i was quite proud of our pasta, it tasted good! or was it because i was just really hungry? haha. it was kinda cool to go all domestic.
currently wearing OPI Warm & Fozzie from the muppet range
I find OPI nail polish colours are so unique. This one is like a gold/bronze with like tones of red through it. I love metallic / glitter / shimmer nail polishes. And i generally prefer silver over gold tones.
But yes! I don't know what it is about it, but OPI nail polishes are great. Not just colour wise, but easy to put on too - quick to dry and easy to apply. I think I'm just going to go through all my OPIs over the next few months. I've accumulated about 13 different OPI colours from all the mini sets i have. I still have my first set - tiny takeouts from the hongkong collection that I got in like first year and the polish is still in great condition. And I think with duty free prices, they're a great investment!
Anyways enough about my current obsession with OPI. Uni starts tomorrow. At 8am in fact. I should probably go to sleep shouldn't I?
