hug pillars! <3
I have just thought of the brilliantest idea ever!!!
HUG PILLARS! :)Oh man, sometimes I amaze myself. Just imagine... a pillar in the room, be it the nursery, the bedroom, the living room... Just for hugging!!! And it can even be customized according to how you like your hugs! If you like soft hugs, the pillar can be lined with velvety soft goodness, or like squishy material so you can like hug it to bits! If you like sturdier hugs, it can take on more of a structure I guess. (But I like my hugs the squash kind haha) And it can even be fitted to your height, and the circumference of your arms so that your hug can be made comfortable in every way!
Oh oh oh! And a hug pillar totally needs a heater! So that when you hug it, you feel warm! Ha! Hugs should totally be sources of love and 'warmth' And when you feel cold, you can hug it for extra cozyness! They can even be glow-in-the-dark-hug-pillars, which Chngballz then termed Hug-in-the-Dark: No more fear of the dark! Also, sound devices can be installed in it, such that when you hug it, it can emit an adorable squeak or play some happy tune like 'baba black sheep', not unlike normal stufftoys.
Hmm. I was remembering how children always hug their parents' legs - now if their parents are not around 24hrs, they can use the hug pillar instead! On another note, parents may also use hug pillars as rewards for their children so they will be obedient to their parents in order to be able to hug the hug pillar! Moreover, hug pillars aren't built for use for one person at any one time only! People can have their group hugs around the hug pillar!!!
Oh the love and joy! :)))

I was speaking to one of my friends recently - and we inadvertently started talking about prelims and all. Okay maybe talking is too mild, groaning and mourning over past papers and complaining or whining about upcoming ones would be closer. It's nice to know someone's suffering too, well, not xing zai le huo, but knowing that you're not the only one being tortured by the Ministry for Me. But yet, I could not like pray with her about it, or wish her a simple "God bless you", because she does not share the same faith. And even when she told me good luck, I hesitated slightly before telling her I didn't believe in luck. It was so, so difficult...
Anywayz, I'm really thankful that some of my classmates pray together before exams! When I came to Hwachong, I realised it wasn't really much of a practice - even amongst the Christians, so I was really happy when Rachel Teo approached me to pray together!!! : ))))))))))))))))))) And I think Chngballz is really cute when she looks at me with the who-is-going-to-pray look!
Breakfast tomorrow~~~

Hug Vera Day
It was HUG VERA day on Sunday :D haha!
Thank you liqun hannah yien jing jing for making my birthday a less stressful one (indirectly ling and auntie grace too!) I still have the muffins in the freezer although the icing kind of got smashed in the container BUT i still love it! <3 Thanks to noreen and yh for getting the dress for me... now we have to get one for mars!
And I adore my thirteen notes!!! It's not enough!!!!!!!!!
Brother you still owe me :p
I think my birthday made me think about who I really wanted to celebrate/spend time with, because I want to celebrate it twice next year! Constance said during my birthday next year around this time I will be busy studying in uni for tests so I have decided to shift my birthday to an earlier month so that I can celebrate it properly and really happily! And it will be the same time as my girls so we can celebrate together and yiling will be around!
I won't settle for anything less than the best God has intended for me. (:

While I was doing reflection during bible study today, I think God really spoke to me through these verses...
[Romans 5:8]
This is why I am running this race! When I read it, my first thought was that it was like a condensed version of John 3:16, yet it places emphasis on both God as love, and us as unworthy sinners.
[1 Corinthians 15:58]
God's encouragement to me when I am tired, or hurt. (Runners fall down too you know!) It's like a reminder that I run not in vain.
[1 Corinthians 9:25]
A crown that will last. That is the prize!!! :D

<3 bible verses

"You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you." ~Isaiah 26:3
"I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. I have set the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore, my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand." ~Psalm 16: 7-11\

To whom it may concern:
It was a feeling I was unfamiliar with. Was it difficult to express my thoughts, my feelings to you? Yes. Though I must admit I have never encountered such a feeling before. It wasn't as though a chasm opened up - it was the impossibility of bringing across what I wanted to say. You should listen to what I don't say instead. Like what I'm not writing here. The gaps in my words - both spoken and unspoken. Questions don't always give you answers. Especially questions asked again and again. The answer I give may be one I've given to many others before; It might have been an answer they expected, or wanted to hear. Maybe I didn't want to give you that answer. Would you understand?
