celebration at my place!

9th aug 2005

What a good day to wake up with.
no school...no work, no "noisy" kids....haha.
... ...
8th Aug
but the kids are really sweet..when i was back on Mon, even though it was a celebration, no classes on tt day, some of them walked past me and saw me, they would greet me, "dai4 lao3 shi1..." made a silly mistake...saw one students, went up to her and started asking her what the relief teacher do during my absence, asking her the topics she taught etc...saw the confused little girl...then only i realised i was telling her about Pri 4 syllabus, when she's from my Pri 5 class! oh no...so embarrassing when she pointed tt to me....haha! :P ops!
had a chinese dept lunch. So thankful to have this lunch, at least finally get to see all the teachers since we are always running around in sch, nvr really got to know them.
glad to have much personal talks with two other new teachers like me, Yvonne and huang Lao Shi.
huang lao shi is a young chap, always talked with confidence in teaching and experience, but he's only 21! so much to learn from this "xiao di" ( hee)! And indeed he helped me a lot in knowing more about the sch, the unsaid things happening around sch etc...o, got to discover, i was pretty "well-known" in sch now, as the one who worked 4 days and MC for another 4 days...hm....added pressure there....got to learn not be affected by what people says....glad at the end of the day, i released tt away! just need stay focus in what i needed and called to do in this one year.
so glad that i managed to talk more with some of the teachers there.
Rem at the hall, saw this girl with some mental problems. she's in the class that i had to relief for another colleague. something i need to learn to relate to her...at times, just dont know what to do. what shall i say....but glad there are teachers who helped me along, esp Valerie who just finished her training at NIE.
God, pray for this gal, that she will also touched by Your love somehow. Protect her as i know Jesus, You loved little children. :)

Back to 9th Aug
1) My nourishment comes from doing the will of God,who sent me and from finishing His work. John 4:34
2) John 4:39-42
Then they said to the woman:now we believe because we have heard Him ourselves, not just because of what you told us.
-Lord, let me experience Your voice that i will believe, coz i heard from You myself and not just what others tell me about You....
-Desert. Far fetched lands around. where is that direction? the cloud above continues to shelter and to protect and to guide. The cloud=Word of God. Let the WOG be the guiding light to where You will bring. ( SQ's sharing during shepherding)

Meet up with Kim, had a good time praying together with her at my place.
Thank God for Your Presence ever so there for us.
What a heart kim has when she prayed for her people. :)

Went to meet up with the rest at SK cold storage.
Happen to mt Pat and Ps Law on the way....hee, so glad to see them. as who they really are. so nice to see them going out together for grocery shopping at supermarket. it's...prob tt's the kind of life i would like to have.....hm....:) they are great leaders! rem pat saw me after one of the seminars, and even offered to send me back home. it was a good talk with her, knowing about each of our lives. Thank God for her.

Slowly but surely, the rest turn up...:P
jiawei- the ever faithful guy. first saw him.
then...li siong, henry, rachel, yi cheng, shiming, mingzhu, rui zhi, dennis, shuwei, vincent....
Guangrong, kim at my place. So surprise to see Cryst! :0
they just came back from thai mission trip ( Cryst / JingYu / Poy)
Then june, bernard, poy,lee, sandy, jodie, johanes....
so very happy that there are so many of them in my house. and i can do my bit by providing the place for God's people and His purpose....shall pray that one day, it will be a CG venue! Yeah.
That kind, the rooms can be discussion groups, the living room can be fellowship time after CG for eating and chatting. can have Praise and worship in the living room too. hee...then the people in the neighbourhood are also drawn to the "noise" we make....Haha.

Thank God for mingzhu, rachel- even the birthday gal had to cook for us, hee opps! and shiming.
What a good meal! always like the traditional kind one...some more very healthy huh, soup and vegetables....missed the "golden pillows" only...hee.
Poy as usual the "add one hand" , washing dishes. mum say he got the same washing pattern as her, so she's very happy. haha. ( u know, most mothers dun really like people "messing up" her terrritory lo)
Yi cheng- the orange squash mixer. ops....add sugar water. got a little "secret" there huh...hope they dun all infected. :P shall wait and see.
Dennis- the tomatoes. not too bad, improved from the last vegetables endeavour.
Vinc the "pretender" cooker, wanting to act like a cook. hee. still trying to add salt...
Jia Wei, the smily by- stander who "commands" the event while Shiming cooks.
Li siong- the carrot cutter who's too shy to be caught in the photos!
Rui Zhi- watermelon I/C who just gets better with more practices.
Kim- the supervisor for RZ.
( above, are just purely my opinions, dun take offense. ) haha ...:)

May our days together as a family be ever drawn closer with much genuineness and openness, truly that we learn to LOVE as Jesus LOVE, accepting one another's "pattern", way of lifestyle, seeing the good in others, pointing out the weaknesses in others so that we may grow in character....so much we can learn from one another as we enjoy through only this one life we have together.

Thank You God.
For Your amazing LOVE to me.
i want to Expand my capacity to LOVE more people, by Your strength and grace.
To see You and walking with You.

10th Aug
no WORK< NO SCH! yeah!
going out with my mum....shopping.

Would there be a day when i can understand what it means to lose a spouse?
the lonely path to move on in life when the other part of the convenanted rings is separated?
Just a thought.....
:)
