♥ nice hot long showers
high pressured hot water shower.
now that i've done a bit of travelling over the past year, i've stayed in places with water restrictions.
and they have those little shower heads that restrict the amount of water coming out. it's very annoying. i really don't like it. because there isn't much that is better than a nice long hot shower with the water at a high pressure.
it's good to be home.

♥ busyness
wow this week has been pretty crazy...
leading up the leaders dinner we're organisin for our tbc leaders...
i haven't really had much time to myself. just to lazee around at home.
my room is an absolute mess... two baskets of clothes that needs to be hung/put away..
stuff all over my desk.. boxes of books to sell.. ughh, its horrific.
i use to get busy a lot... as in ... A LOT.
i sometimes would forget what it means to just be still.
even in serving in the church... i would do everything. and anything. because i just liked it. it was me... i found comfort in throwing myself into ministry... and i often failed to realize the importance of being still. to stop. to just immerse urself into the presence of God, without having to worry abt the words of the songs going on the screen.. or stuff like that...
---- a day later ----
wahaha i think i konked out half way while writing that blog!
oh im soo tireddd. work today was killleRr..
ive been drinkin lots of water lately. which is good! i need to get one of those 1.5L bottles to carry around.. cauz i keep finishin my 750mL pump bottle in half a day~!
anyways the dinner was last nite!! the leaders dinner.. ahh weeks of organising.. and it all just fell in place. praise God. i need to learn to trust Him a bit more! because im always panic-ing, freaking out and stressing... tsktsk, i always have this problem. its just my nature. but its a bad nature! i need to work on believing and trusting that He's got my back... because although i know it, in my head, i still panic? tsktsk..
the dinner turned out awesomely great though. i cant believe it marks the end of tbc... the end... i know some of the leaders want me back to help out, but i feel that nxt yr isnt the right yr...
so im just going to wait til the right time! next yr i want to do a lot though.. of course one of them is settle into uni life... make new friends... but a big part is to also give back to the community... i havent decided how or what yet... but dont worry, when the opportunity arises, i guess ill decide then.
anyways. after a crappy day of work i was sitting, waitin for dad.. when i was watchin these kids cross the road with their mum. it was kinda cute. so much cuter than the silly kids who come into reddot and mess up the toy section!! and i was watching them cross the pedestrian crossing.. the zebra stripes! and the cute lil girl is only steppin on the white bits.. so u can see her stretching her leg over the big black stripe.. to reach the next white one.
and i just sat there and stared... and my mind started to think! think about childhood. oh how time flies... think about the childlike faith.. that children have. as they cross the road.. knowing that although they may not be holding hands with their parents... that their parents are still there... and even though cars may come near.. they stop... so no harm comes to the child...
i remember back to my childhood.. how carefree we were.. no stress... no worries... no responsibility... how much we relied on our parents.. even though we would get angry when they wouldnt buy us that toy we wanted... being a child... so freeee... its funny how kids always want to grow up! i know i did.
dress ups! pretending to be adults.. oh i rmb seeing those fake kitchens that the kids play with. haha.. oh how much we want to grow up and be adults !
and then u reach my age.. u finish high school.. and u realize.. u want those yrs back. all those yrs of wishing that u would grow up faster... u now wish u could be young again.
oh, im still young. in a way, i kinda miss those younger years. but i know i have lots ahead... and im looking foward to it still! im looking foward to 2moro. im looking foward to next week. im looking foward to next month!
there's so much going on... i just want to capture the moment. embrace the timeee... and never let go of the memories.
