It's a fine time for studying -- Dad&Mum went for caregroup, Kor's not home, no TV show that I wanna watch, no urge to continue with my TVB show (yet), table's a lil neater now 'cos I FINALLY stored my old laptop away, weather's cool...
So why am I not studying????
Top on the list of reasons: that the pictures on my notes aren't coloured. Haha..
There's something about being a 3rd year undergrad. You start doing out of the ordinary things like cut more classes in 2 weeks than you ever did for the first 2 years of study, you find yourself having only 10% of a report done on the eve of its deadline. . .
===================================
On another note, today calls for a celebration. It's taken almost 6 long months for things to get cleaned up. Couldn't help but smile, seeing the calendar switch from 10Mar to 30Aug. Beats me, whatever happened during that 'period of vacuum'. Things are gonna be different from now.. Better late than never I guess.

I'm back I'm back!! And I've never felt better. Haha.. We could all do with a well deserved break once in a while. Of course there's lotsa work to do now.. But I could always count on my newly found slave to do it all... Muahaha. Just kidding.
Presenting. . .
Candice's photo of the week!
'Tis the season for sunray-ed photos for me. Call it poor photography or whatever but I think the right amount of rays makes a splendid photo at times.
Something funny happened today.. (No one in my family thinks that it's funny though)
'Cos we were making ampoules for prac so we had to use the strong flame to melt and seal the glass vials. As I was pulling my hand away, somehow it got caught in the neighbouring flame. Slight tinge of pain there.. but not enough to make me drop the apparatus. What followed was this strong cao ta smell that left everyone asking what it was. And that's when I realised that the hairs on my last 2 fingers were sizzled through and through. And a slight brush left my fingers hairless. Good thing my fingers were perfectly fine though (this classmate of mine scalded her palm when it caught the flame).
So there you have it - the discovery of the wonders of the little hairs that God put on our fingers.

When you are in heaven, you are not any more righteous than you are now.
- more words of wisdom from my fave ogre.. i mean aage.
There are so many ways to look at things and so many different ways to express your views and ideas. Yes I've always known that we are established in righteousness and we can't grow in righteousness but I never saw it from Ps Aage's heaven point of view.
.....
There are times in life when we need to do something crazy to stay sane. Like,
take a self-declared break and pack your bags and fly away.
See you guys in a week!
And just in case you're reading this, take care and have fun in Rotterdam. I'm so gonna miss you. Remember my parting gift... my Birks!!

Powerful powerful message today. Simple truths from an all too familiar passage but it struck a chord somehow. God really has His ways. I love Pastor Aage (including his way cool name haha)!! Or maybe it was just another case of my fickle self craving for something refreshing and different. Nevermind the fact that I wasn't awake throughout the services.. The lil that I heard was impactful enough.
1. Cast out the bondwoman and her son.
2. Grace alone is sufficient. Living by law, in addition to grace, is as good as Sarah saying that she was incapable of raising Isaac alone and needed Hagar's help.
3. Abraham, Sarah and Isaac (faith, grace and new creation) belong together in one household.
There was more of course.. But these are enough for me to meditate on throughout the next few days at least... Can't wait for BS now.

Had great plans to impress the world and myself by finishing my readings over the weekend but I stopped after one pathetic page on drug discovery and development. Keep slipping into holiday mood now and then. Maybe having a self-declared break ain't such a good idea after all... Heck la. Looking forward to having a wonderful time. Forget classes - I won't remember them a year from now.
Haven't heard from my nephew for a day and it feels like eternity. But cold turkey is good I guess, just in case weyling's prediction comes true and he forgets me in an instant.

School's starting. Finally.. No more work!! I don't know whether to rejoice or cry. Between work and school... neither.
My head's spinning after some drinks. Must have been that stupid glass of wine. Doesn't help that I'm freaking pissed off with my printer. Imagine waiting 15mins for it to respond, and almost 5 mins for it to print ONE page. Complaining about it and having one ignore you and the other tell you he'll 'work on it' for the second time without even lifting a finger or moving an inch only adds tonnes and tonnes of fuel to fire.
Missing my nephew again. Can someone please send me to Taiwan?????

Apologies to all for vanishing for a while.
I'm now back, and slowly re-integrating back into society. . .
For starters, I'm going on the duck tour today! Haha.. Let's hope it'll be fun. I definitely want my nephew to have the time of his life, although he's damn naughty I feel like calling him 阿坏 junior, after his dad.
