i love this picture. somewhere along the way, i felt like i was the subject in the photo. having had climbed up that flight of stairs, having had headed for the summit, i thought that i would now have a clearer picture of where's life taking me. i would be able to look down and have a bird's eye view of my dreams, aspirations and perhaps even a glimpse into what my future may be like.
but i guess not.
im finally living out my dream of pursuing my passion in an overseas university, but i havent got a clue of what to expect, of what i intend to do next. i feel lost with towering buildings and situations overwhelming me; loneliness too, admist the strangers that past me by with a mere hi/bye. i sit at the top of the flight of stairs ive climbed just so i can clear my perplexed mind; a depressing atmosphere threatening to envelop me like the thundering clouds above.
but im saying all this not because i wish someone would sympathsize with me(well, ha,okay.MAYBE a little.) but really because im really grateful that at the peak of my confusion and all, these words came up to me at random.

Psalm 46
1God is our refuge and strength,a very present help in trouble.
2Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.
4There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
6The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.
8Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.
10Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.

and yes of course, He sent his many angels to me to make me too busy to feel sorry for myself for too long.and yes you guys know who u are, the many of u that ive been busy updating my life to and using my precious internet connection on >.< i love you all, thanks (:

it's strange how you know the holidays are here when most of your friends start disappearing. perhaps having had the burden of meeting datelines removed, it's that sudden increase in spare time that makes that wistfulness well up in you even more.

something my friend said today that struck me. "well, it's good for us as christians, cos at least we know that God has already prepared that special someone for us." such faith that sometimes i simply dont have the courage to have. maybe if i knew for sure that say at 21 im going to get a guy that loves me for who i am and with whom im hopelessly in love with, maybe i would have been more confident of what to expect, of who i am, and of my faith. but thinking again, then that probably isnt faith anymore. surprisingly i came across this statement today. "faith is one that hands everything to God, confident in his character and purposes rather than our answers." how apt. faith is more than believing that every story will have a fairy tale ending, rather it's believing in the writer of the story that he will give each story a well ended conclusion.

a song, any song.

cruel to be kind - letters to cleo one of those songs that still dont make sense to me even though i read the lyrics a million times over. but i love it nonetheless, perhaps because of the smile that creeps onto my face everytime i think of the sweet scene between patrick verona and kat stratford in 10 things i hate about you . there's just something about romantic shows that always seem to get me, no matter how cheesy these moments might seem on hindsight.
