Lydia is having a fantastic Christmas with family :)

happy birthday, Jesus

post-exam

shopping with my boys. having fantastic meals lunch and dinner. spending mum’s money :p happy happy happy

watching gilmore girls..again! looking out at the rain and imagining snow. breathing in the christmas feeling, getting frantic with the presents that haven’t been bought, cards that’s still not sent, many presents that’s still not wrapped but still ahh its christmas.

brother is here to mess up the room till we go home so we get to practice our christmas presentation. also, plenty of food coz jes is a hungry monster.

its all good. of course.

living today like there’s no exam tommorow

which is very me. i tend to get excited a day or two earlier so on the actual day i feel no excitement. yeah, its a spoiler. its 6.10pm and i still haven’t touched the ethics textbook (maybe coz i read the chapters already).

yesterdays exam was actually a breather. i thought i was going to scratch my head and drool on the table because i anticipated the worst. but the answers were all in the textbook and i think my creative juices worked a bit thanks to The Apperentice and other series. see, watching tv series has its pros. and i manage to complete all 4 essays in 2 hours and 40 minutes. and then i felt guilty so i pretended to be busy for another 20 minutes correcting grammar, reading my essays slowly, making sure i answered all the question, read the essays s l o w l y again and then finally, it was 3pm. time is a strange thing, ironic; it goes by fast, sometimes too fast when im writing my essay like a looney and then it takes forever when im done. im glad it wasn’t horrible. the morning before, instead of revising again (because, sigh, i didn’t know what to do already), i sang songs, talked to God etc and i felt chilled. so then the exam felt very small in my eyes compared to the bigger things. i love how His strength is made perfect in my most weakest almost giving up moments and how i just have to sit and hang with Him.

so yeah, tomorrow i shall be done. and then i shall shop till i drop

who has been staying at my place this past few days. sukalah! feels like my INTI roommate. we click pretty well, she thinks im insanely weird and i think she’s fussy, like super. she knows la. but she smells great and she’s super considerate and she brought along yummy stuff. i finally don’t have to sleep off the hunger. i can drink chocolate milk! when she sleeps, she curls into a ball. i mustmust take a picture of that before she leaves. she’s always slaying some dragon (oklah, and studying). she listens to NICE music!!!! today after her last paper and her failed shopping adventure, we decided to get pizza just because (or was it me?). i wanted some yummy stuff crust pizza but the pizza hut near my place is always out of whatsthatname cheese! grr! so anyway, we were there till 8pm chatting grandma stories. that’s college life man. not sitting in my room and absorbing radiation till i sleep. she’s gone today and i actually miss her. you know that feeling when someone whom you felt was fun having around in the room even in silence is no more there. it feels sorta empty. now i can’t turn around and strike up a random conversation. im used to staying alone, i actually prefer. but for the first time after my INTI roommate, i miss having someone around. (awww)

when the search is over, His divine intervention begins

im blessed with encouraging prayerful people around me

mum:

u 2 dnt wory everytin wl fall in2 place as u trust in Him.He always knows wat is best.

dad:

i’ll be praying. God will make a way. Maybe you’ll get a better place

(both my parents are so similar in this way it makes me glow)

jSh:

Dont worry. you’ll get a better place.

Not worrying dy. the more i take this matter in my own hands, the more disappointed and frustrated im getting. didn’t i get the best room and roommate in inti, and didn’t this room come to me and blessed me with a good roommate and housemates. i didn’t search for both, instead they fell on my lap by some kind of divine intervention.

Dear God, im finally being still to know that you are God.

today (i cant find a better title. wont.)

everything is insanely jumbled and nothing is certain. i can study but this semesters papers are like wth, same goes with most of the lecturers. on top of that i have to pack and move out while having my finals. i only have 5 days between the end of finals and going back home and im a super busy not free at all all those days. i haven’t done any gift shopping!! its cmas!! hello!! mui importante!! and im spending my money on food because thats how i cope with stress. hormonal, in pain and hungry. dont feel like standing and cooking. want to sleep. tired. just tired.

i remembered this video my dad use to play for my brother and i. this guys does a really crazy dance while singing

” I’ve got a feeling everything’s gonna be alright. be alright. be alright. be al—right…”

yeah Jesus, You see me. You know. I’ll be okay.

my wish list of wishes that i wish will come true

three people have asked me so far to give them a wish list to make buying gifts easier so i have added a WISH LIST box at the side of my blog. Items will be crossed out and added when necessary. its a little weird, but  yeah.

pssh, title?

i can’t believe this. all the planning and talking about it have to stop!!! its not the time yet and talking about it is nerve-wrecking and just plain psycho because nothing is going to happen…yet but its really far far far far along. gosh! i cant believe conflict and busybodies can grow out of something so wonderful. the best part is that its NOT even happening. what the what the!!! STOP it all!

having my finals tomorrow and im so chilled, maybe because i planned my study time table well. that doesn’t mean im gonna score with flying colors tho. that just means im a good time manager, what gets stuck in the brain is another story all together.

i met up with dr.albert. presented my thesis topic and discussed about how im going to carry it out. he’s really nice! i confirmed with him again the amount of journals and he said only 10-20, not important. oh? has he heard about the other lecturers going crazy about journals. i think he just wants to see me succeed in my own research, pretty cool. i like my topic, but doubt it will add extra knowledge. i hope it does. time to start connecting with my potential future employees. yeah, well that’s an added bonus

i’ve got to move out by end of january. i wanted to stay in this room till im done with my bachelors, but the owner wants to renovate the house and move in here so we’ve all got to start looking. so far YY’s place is looking handsome! and i finally get to stay in an apartment and have my OWN room with swimming, gym and court facilities. im going to look at the room tomorrow and if i like it, i’ll be sending in a one month’s notice and leave early jan itself. im going to miss this cockroach, lizard, rat, maggot infested house! its been home for 3 years

i cant wait for Christmas!! so excited. my relatives have good things planned out and kiti is following me back to get some Christmas loving, the Stephen Style

the year is coming to an end. its like i just wrote down my goals for 2009 in SMART-ER. time to beam proudly at what has been achieve and continue to work on stuff that failed. some things are just a work in progress

well, all the best to all khayshi, yin yee, kathleen, silvia, kartene, lai thin and umm the psychers
