I like randomness'

I'm exhausted.

funny huh? it's supposed to be the holidays but I'm like tired out.

oh well, it's a friday. end of the week thing I guess.

this is random. but, grace! accent, accent...three months and you have an accent??

haha. call back real soon yeah, and annoy ronnie with your aussie accent. haha, she'll persuade you to drop it. or maybe not;)

as for me, I would absolutely like to hear it! haha, no opinions on the accent, just interested in how you sound like now:)

ooh. and did I mention how I am like falling in love with the chinese language? I think you've influenced me in that. haha.. but it's mainly due to the chinese songs and shows I've been exposed to this holiday=)

it's awesome. I still cannot believe the hold the language is having over me..

as for today..it went well. dinner with yiwen and sharon was great!haha. had my sashimi fix. like finally. but I still do miss my sushi tei's and the soba there. people(you know who you are),let's make a date there during december kay?

and as for the school buds, yiwen, I wanna try the pasta place you recommended soon!

haha, it's all about the food man.

oh, and sammie and I watched Ironman yesterday.

haha. apart from the non-existent plot and character development, the movie was well worth it=)haha, but I honestly feel that the audience is there to watch it, and like it simply because of the special effects and robert downey jr. haha. the lead actor rocks. like I always say, it's the older guys who have that special charm. even if they have this weird metal thing for a heart and have a thing for technology.

nice:)

I realise this post is absolutely random. I have no idea what I have just typed and I have no idea what is going to be up next.

ermm..oh, and tomorrow's "downloading of songs day"! so my beloved readers, if you so happen to read this post, and so happen to have time, could you please send me a selection of songs that you like and have?thank you so so much in advance!haha, and thanks yiwen for starting the ball rolling!

what else?

I'm intent on making this post last. to get all the random things I've been keeping inside my mind out.

I have only 7 more months to complete my resolution for the year.

I want to eat more, play more and work more.

I want to go swinging soon.

I miss Starbucks time.

thank God for providing a chaperon for our Cambodia trip!thank you people for praying=)

leccion(lesson) one- Me llamo Jean. pronounce it like: Mie yamo (your name).

anyway, that wasn't the lesson I learned today. I want to share how God is telling me to wait. but not just to wait.

I've been asking Him to show me His individual race for me for some time now, and the answer that I've been getting is to wait and to trust in Him for the opportune time to reveal to me His plans. but just today as I was looking for books for grace, I chanced upon this book I've read once. emilie(a) barnes' "Help me to trust You Lord". and I just flipped the book open and the chapter it opened to was "how much longer Lord?"

and I was like hooked to it, and just started reading the chapter. and I learned that it's not just the waiting process that God wants me to have. He want me to focus on knowing also that He sees the big picture. that even though nothing seems to be happening now from what I can see, He sees it all and He is telling me "it's worth the wait".

for a God who sees the end from the beginning, it's easy to say that, but as how the author shared, and how I feel, it's tough, and God knows it too. and hence the title of the book. and the author also shared how as she waited for something in her life, God taught her to give thanks not only for the past and the present, but also for the future. and what started out as dutiful thanks in obedience to God changed into heartfelt thanks as she became more aware of how God is working in her life and step-by-step building the trust and faith in Him.

Lord, I want to be able to do that too. will You help me to trust You more? to know that You are our El Roi, our God who sees?

I'm smiling now as I think of how I'm typing a prayer that needs not be typed out for the one who answers already knows what I want to say even before I say it. but I want to type it down because when You answer, when the fruit of Your work is revealed, I will look back on this entry and praise You once again for Your mighty deeds and Your awesome power=)
