Long time no see

Such a Chinese thing to say. And i've been more Chinese in the last three days than i've been in my entire life.

Anyway, that's not the point of the post. The point is, i'm not sure what the point is anymore. Haha, no that's not entirely true, i know the point is Jesus. But i mean the point in other things in life that i do that i don't consider important anymore, but well, would be controversial if i chose to halt. All these questions burning in my mind, i wish there were more older women in the church that i look up to that i can ask these personal questions. Where are the older women who's supposed to teach the younger women? Biblically, older women are supposed to train the younger women... where are they? Sigh. Do you see the necessary succession from older women (older for me meaning from 22-whatever) to the younger? They should have already encountered these questions and therefore would be able to guide me in a sense, not so much spoon feed me.

Anyway, that point about older and younger women is also secondary to the main point. Where do i measure up? In God's great plans, what do i do? Well, since i haven't finished thinking about them, you will not be able to read the not-so-juicy details of my answers.

So that makes the ACTUAL point of this post, is that i just wanted to let you know that i'm still alive and have been busy and occupied and haven't had the time to blog.

And after the first, there's the second. Better poses, got to fix the face though haha.

I've got to work on the posing man... Oh well. There's always a first.
And this is my first time being able to match these yellow leggings with anything. Cos seriously, they're such an odd color, and my other fave colors that dominate my closet don't match it.

Okay maybe not everything

Not everything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Some things just put the silver linings in your clouds. And it warms the cockles of the heart, some of these things that could have gone wrong but don't. Sigh.

But, back to the present. I'm seriously considering being a housewife to a non-existent husband because that might just be all that i'll be qualified for. My personal ad as follows:

To all prospective husbands in search for a stay-at-home wife. Can cook, won't kill. Excellent at choosing clothes that match, fixing tears and other miscellaneous clothes-related problems. Not particularly gorgeous but anything works with the lights off, right? Enough wit and humor to last u til your 50th birthday, no guarantees on whether laughter is at you or with you.

If any takers, don't answer this ad. Haha.

If anything can go wrong, it will

Another self-explanatory post, where whatever that can go wrong, has already gone wrong, which really explains why the writer is sitting here writing about it.

Itching

I'm itching after a MacBook. Yes this laptop is great and all, but it wasn't something i chose of my own volition and it doesn't suit my purposes. I can't run any of the necessary programs [necessary to me la] and that sort of defeats the purpose of me having a laptop.

I realize that there are probably other laptops out there that would do the trick for me and are probably cheaper than a MacBook but i figure, what's the point? I'd rather get something that is ultimately more suited to me [that's a little bit more expensive] than something that doesn't completely suit my needs [which is cheaper]. I'd prefer to spend a little extra on something that hangs, crashes less, more protected, user friendly too. Not to mention that it is so easy on the eyes. I've read reviews over reviews on all the features [not that i understand it all] but it's a well known fact that Macs work better than the usual crap.

Anyway, if i calculate right, if i start saving up now, i'll probably be able to purchase one in a year's time. Well, i'm still thinking about it. And i think it's very safe to say i'll be thinking about it right until the point of purchase. *grin*

Insecurities

"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

I boast, i boast...for i have many many many weaknesses and insecurities. Oh that i slowly learn everyday to rely more and more on God's strength to keep me going, teaching me and making me stronger and stronger and more resistant to sin. Just today, i'm bombarded right left and center with insecurities and i realise how much God has helped me since maybe a good year back. It grows to be a little less harder to choose the right path and a little more easy to walk away from the temptation of sin. Ahhh, i rest in peace in the knowledge that Christ is my power.
