Blog 1st, Homework later! No not really hehehe

Its already 2 days intot eh week and Im already wishing for the weekend! Raawwrrr! Aside from that Im doing fine.

I did however call myself "stupid/blur/wth!" quite aa few times these few days and it is a clasic example of me putting myself down. I wish I knew more about lighting and rigging and all the different procedures of doing stuff and most importantly, "getting the idea" quickly! I feel like I let my lighting head and lighting designer down!

And there I was a day ago feeling good about how my common sense was enough for me to figure out how to cook and not to cook stuff. At least the basic principles... Haiz.

As I walked home, I talked myself to be positive and not worry about what others say. I am indeed a noob at lighting and so its obvious that it will take me awhile to get it. I doubt myself and my impressions too much and I think faster than I hear...

If I let myself be dissappointed by myself and the whispers of Satan to bring me down...Id eventually go down. But I dont want that! I will persist in learning from my stupidity..

Also last night, I had a very vivid dream that I my ex had come back to me....doesnt hurt anymore but I was quite surprised by what triggered this dream off. of course not all dreams made sense or even stood for anything so Im not holding it against God or the dream itself to have any significance in my life hahaha Dont worry Im fine :) not upset, not worried, not affected, just curious.

Obviously as old flames go, the good ones die hard. Im not in pain but I sometimes also wished that what was, wasnt so shortlived. obviously that would be my own opinion haha

That said, in all the times after that, Im glad I wasnt in a relationship. Im very glad Im not in one now. Coz it would be a total ass of a situation when Im overseas now and studies are to be my priority. Im very relieved esp when seeing how some of my friends are going through all that now.

Anyway, life must go on and I have faith in my God that such an important affair as this will not be ignored and left to mere human understandings. God always has plans for me and I will dwell in that knowledge. Amen!

K back to work!

God Bless!

My Class in Strine (Aka Australian) slang

So after a casual metion of the Servo, Bottle O and Sando, my 2 mentors decided to further educate me on australian...excuse me I meant Strine slang.

Missing home...

Yap missing home again. Think its the cold that makes me miss the warmth of family. Whether is hanging with the guys or even hanging with sister in front of PC or meeting students...miss it.
Received news today that my newphew is visiting Sydney. Wohoo! Family!
Also cant wait to go back to singapore. Wohoo!
Getting all the random msgs from friends on facebook. Wohoo!
And keeping in touch w Steph, Fran, Peiyan and Ian on whatsapp. :)
Yes the internet is a valuable thing to have. Its cause of internet that I probably feel better...but it also brings about the phrase " so near yet so far"
Recently, my housemate asked me how it feels to not have a boyfriend. Especially when it means he'd be in Singapore while I in Sydney. And for the first time in my life, Im glad.

I wont say that I havnt been happy...nor would I say Ive been very much depressed with not having one...but the lack of one is a relief...saves me the need to maintain it while still here. or even worry about whether we'd break up.

Im very very very sure that God had in mind for me to go through all this further studies..and maybe thats why He's preserved me till now... Afterall, he knows very well that I wont be able to handle all that while in Sydney.

Oh Well. He's given me the strength and spirit so far...He'll definitly guide me through
