| I'm back from the kelong trip!
I wouldn't say "finally back" 'cause like the rest of the group, we would love to be there for a few more days.
Being away from the city and the schedules always allow time to stop and evaluate and think about "Life", and spend some "me" time.
I would say Thank You, despite of the hurts, pain, and heartache. I've learnt to be stronger because of them.
I would say Thank You, to all the people that had came and gone. You've made a difference in my whether you know it or not, whether it was pleasant or not.
I would say Thank You, to all my friends and loved ones. For all the happy memories.
I would say Thank You, to you. Yes, you.
Love me for who I am.
If I were to live my life again, and if I knew of the things that will happen, I'll probably not want to insist to be in nursing. Then again, I may not have met you (whoever is reading this).
There's many things that I made happen. And there's many things which I wished had not happened.
Many things are beyond control. Only God knows why.
What is luck? What is chance? What is co-incidence?
Is it really luck? Is it really chance? Is is really co-incidence?
All I really want simplicity in my adventurous life.
Embrace, love, laugh, travel. All with the ones I love and loves me.

| It's done and over with.
Loves the hair cut and color.
Although I've seen all the photos that was taken, I wonder which one will be picked.
In the end, we did all by ourselves - styling, make-up, photoshoot. But I must say that it was a much better idea as we had the control and we could take as many photos as we like and choose the angle and style as we liked. We really worked it - all by ourselves. Some improv and it's indeed true that when you are lacking, you'll be forced to use your creativity.
It wasn't pro but I think everyone enjoyed and gained the experience of the whole process, 'cause we were all involved in it.

Was listening to my ipod shuffle on the way back home..
There is a desire as I listened to the songs from the musicians and singers like Delirious and Hillsongs, CCC and Don Moen. All their life, they have given back to the Kingdom of God using their gifts and talents.
And I came home, and fb-ed "Holy Dissatisfaction" on my status.
Those were exactly the two words that could describe how I felt in my spirit.
Dissatisfied.
Yet satisfied.
Not enough. I want more of You.
I need to be more skillful. So that I can serve You more effectively.
I need to be moulded even more, so that I can serve You obediently.
I need to be more sensitive, so that I could hear You.
I need to love You more and more each day.
Strengthen me. So that I can run a longer distance for You.

| Tomorrow is D-day.
Honestly, I started this project(per se) without any clue where it will go and how it will be like.
Simply because I didn't bother to ask the details.
And I didn't know that it would be of such a scale.
If I can get hold of a photo from the shoot I'll share it here, for now, other than the passersby, Ros, and Amanda, no one else has seen it yet so I'll just keep the element of surprise for now.
I know my stylist has done his best, all of us are happy with the end result and now is up to me and the team to work it. So, we have done our best, God will do the rest. I pray for the best end result there can be.

I could hear it.
"Ok, let's go once again."
And I felt Him near. I could feel His love towards me, and I know He feels it too.
I wept.
"I am my beloved's, And his desire is toward me."
I'm loving this adventure with God. Let's go...

| Today would be my 3rd round of touch-up and cut to finish the design for the hair then off for the photo shoot, but a unexpected visit from a v-v-vip to the salon caused the final cut to be postponed to Sunday...
Which was good in a way. At least I don't have to do Thief of Time and attend service with the "watermelon-skin haircut".
5 more days to go for the submission and the style is not done yet - I foresee a mad rush on Sunday and then photo shoot on Mon or Tues.
From my blonde-hair-day experience, I knew that it is going to be a long day. So I took along "Faith" by Phil Pringle. It's a book that I had wanted to read, and like what Pst Phil said in the book, the subject of faith should always be preached over and over again.
We live in a world of doubts. Where man puts their trust in the wisdom of man instead of word of God.
And this leaves us worried, weak and far from God. And so all the more we need faith in our lives.
And this sentence was what is so true: "People are very quick to let us know what are the "facts". However, our faith, focus and fight are based on truth, not the facts."
So, in the situation that we are in, what is the "matter of facts" and "matter of truth"?
Both can be very different.
I find myself saying "but the matter of fact is...." quite often. So probably it's time to say "but the matter of truth is..."
That's the Introduction of the book for you. ;)

Will be doing a re-run of Thief of Time at the TRCC (The Republic Cultural Centre) on Saturday, this time round as a Stage Manager and I'm pleased that I can manage to plan the scene change in such a way that I don't have to be the one moving, and so does my 2 main lead.
It was a short short rehearsal, (nothing new anyway...lolx). And before I knew it, tomorrow's going to be the bump-in and Saturday's the actual day! Gosh.
On paper things seems to be nicely planned out and every ground has been covered.
Yet it feels like something is lacking and there's a certain feeling that something's missing.
God, I'm leaving things in Your hands!
p.s. God, if there's something really that we've overlooked, please tell us soon!
