Memorable Memories

Below are some of the jolly good times I had with some of my friends from church. Many of them are my little girlies whom I 'look after' in my youth ministry. I love them lots! Not a single time when I was with them did I feel bored or sian..in fact being with them brings out the childlikeness in me and I am so grateful for everyone of them who loves me and also like spending their time with me! :) Looking from some of the pics, I realised most of my hang out times involved food! Friends who eat together stay together!!!!!

Lim Xi and Alysson enjoying their treat at Secrets Receipe. There was the Chocoloate Banana (SR's hot cake!) and Macademia Cheesecake.

I had the Carrot Cake! And look at Alysson - her expression says it all. Lim Xi on the other hand, was able to contain her satisfaction pretty well haha...but they both ravished their cakes! But me.....

I so could not finish my portion! The cake was huge can! And the creamy cheesy layer on top didn't whet my appetite much also! Think it will be the first and last time I eat the carrot cake from Secret Recipe. The gals and I have yet to complete our mission i.e. to try out every of the cakes available at Secret Recipes! So far we have done 6 ...not sure how many to go but after their 'O's, we sure to whack the cakes again!!! Here we come.....


This was JYC's 3rd anniversary (I think). Look at how young I was then. Believe I look younger now! Haha..Beside me are Joanne Chua and Alysson! They looked so kiddish then but they have since grown up and looking every bit a beautiful princess! Joanne is now serving as a leader at JYC and I am so proud of her. Alysson needs no introduction...:)

Miaofeng, Ying Nuo and Sam. Sam is also now a leader with JYC. These gals are a wonderful testimony of how God uses this ministry to not just touch & transform lives but in turn using them to be a catalyst for change in other people's lives as well. Looking at this picture really encourages me much!



The above 3 pictures show my running buddies. Uncle Kevin, Ben Soh and Sharon. I ran my first marathon with them and our friendship became solid as a rock through all our gruelling trainings. Ben is now doing his missionary course in Perth but whenever he returns for a visit, we never fail to meet up. We may not have ran marathons together again, but we will continue to run on in the race of life together, cheering one another on.


JYC's first Over-n-Out event where we had a feast of hotdog buns with homemade bolognaise sauce, freshly made nuggest and fries. Plus we had entertainment from the Transformers and then a night of Record Breaking games! The finale to the night before we hit the sack was a sweet sweet time of Ice-Cream party! Absolutely sinful but so delicious it was impossible to resist!

The JYC leaders. My very strong team. We look so happy together right? We are. Every one of them is a gift and working alongside with them to see lives change is a privilege and I would never want to trade that for anything else. We having missing people in the pic - Lionel who was at work at the point where we took the picture and dearest At. Licheng who is away in China. Who can forget about her? She's our fantastic role model and we all miss her much!

SHAKING OFF THE DUST

Its been a long hiatus :) So many things have taken place and so many reflections to document but the inertia to do it was just to great to resist. Anyhow, decided to take some time during this break to start the 'blogging engine' going again. Hopefully, it revives my hope and wish to keep this site alive.  Just had the annual ODAC camp @ Ubin and while trekking around the island with the kiddies yesterday, I chanced upon this little grasshopper at the Sensory Trail. I managed to get up close and personal for this shot, which was taken with my new iPhone 7 ahem. Image was sharp and it looked great!  And the verse that came to mind was: "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?....Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." - Matthew 6: 26-34 In my rest...

Count your blessings

I bought this set of keychain for my gramps. So cute right? They both love it to bits man! Haha..I'm proud of myself. A wise person said this to me this morning: "when you count your blessings, you will find many things to be thankful for...". True true. Been rather short fused these days and especially with family members. My grandma bore the brunt of it on monday when she suddenly appeared at NCC with my grandpa. I wasn't expecting her and so when I saw her, I was quite mean to ask why she was there when I actually know her intentions. I felt the way I felt because firstly I was already bothered about how to take care of grandpop when he sighs and worries about his discomfort and blah and then grandmop comes along and be herself (complain complain and ask same questions 1001 times etc). Double whammy! Anyway in a nutshell, the wise person told me early in the morning that grandmop upset that I brushed her aside that day, which I know was baddie bad bad :( ok i will...

PSALM 121

I lift my eyes to the hills - where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel, will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you - the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Many a times, man fails to keep his promise but God never. He makes a promise and we can be so sure He will keep it forever and ever. Man may fail but He nevers. Sometimes, we may wonder if God is really doing the right thing for us but I know one thing - trusting Him is the only thing that can never go wrong :)
