Why can't I control myself?

Once upon a time (yesterday), there lived a girl (me). And on one particular evening, she was going to get two new things! One, a new pair of spectacles. Two, a new pair of contact lens. And she did receive them... it is always nice to receive new things.

Then later, during dinner... something happened. Her new lovely white bag (just only given to her last Saturday) suffered at the hands of a careless coffeeshop cleaner, who practically poured an entire concoction of gross liquid (probably a mixture of coke, sauce, oil and whatever disgusting black leftover liquid you can think of) on her poor poor new bag. She was furious! And glared at anything and everything, and anger overwhelmed her tiny heart.

Then her father spoke to the supervisor, requesting for a compensation. A deal was made... she give over the bag, and they pay $35 (the cost of the bag) in return. Then she went from anger, to helplessness. As she took out her things and placed them into a plastic bag, she uncontrollably started to cry... cry very hard... in public. Which is ridiculous. But yet what is done cannot be undone.

In the end, a new deal was made. The supervisor gave them $25, and they kept the bag.

A big fiasco over a small mole hill simply because of sentiment and emotional attachment. Ridiculous is the word of the day.

Exercise galore!

On Thursday I finally got down to exercising (not counting the two floorball tryouts which I sadly couldn't make it into the 3rd round... yet it's good that I didn't. As Pearl will say: dilemmic dilemma. Haha).

So what did I do? Crazily... I ran, then played hockey, then on Friday morning I tried tennis for the first time (with Daryl the No1! haha, Steven and Yvonne)...

Running -
felt great! My love-hate relationship for running is rekindled once again. Haha

Hockey -
felt weird... haha have not played for so long... and sustained tons of injuries... bruised toe, left ankle and right calf... the power of the hockey ball.

Tennis -
fun! Haha, although I can't swing very naturally... oh well, with practice perhaps I can get better... after all, I have the excuse of being a newbie. Haha.


So now, after all that exercise... *drum rolls*
I have butt ache, thigh ache, toe ache, ankle ache, arm ache,sunburn. :P

The BIG 20! Hahaha. Happy bday to me (HAHA)

Haha! I'm super happy! Haha... like Fishie said... I must be the happiest girl today (Actually it's technically yesterday) !!! Haha

It's my 20th birthday... that looks so old! My cakes had only two big candles on them. Geez. HAha... compared to last year, where I had one big and nine small ones! Haha... more fun.

Anyway, I want to thank all my dearest friends around me who have been part of my life... each of you are in my "friend-basket" (Mel Mel will understand this) even if we don't meet up often ya?

God - Loves me forever and ever

Family - Papa Mama Bro loves me very much!

Church gals - You all are wonderful! Family!

Did you know that God loves me?
Did you know that God comforts me?
Did you know that God rejoices with me?
Did you know that God gives me meaning and purpose in my life?
Did you know that God is the God of all hope, my hope?
Did you know that God gave His life for me through Jesus?
Did you know that I'm worth that much to Him?

Do you know that God loves you too?




I love this song:

AMAZES ME

On my knees
I bow down
Sing about the Healer
And the hope I've found

You took my tears
Took my shame
Washed them all away

Your love shines down
On this heart of mine
Lead me to the waters of eternal life

I once was lost
But now I'm found
It's a brand new day

CHORUS:
Your love
It amazes me
Your love
Is lifting me

Higher than I
Can possibly dream
Your love amazes me

BRIDGE:
Hallelujah Your love amazes me
