I am SOOOO PAMPERED!~

Oh my gosh, another weekend had just flew passed. This week was indeed a VERY FRUITFUL WEEK!~ I had a rather relax Friday as my colleague is not around; the one I worked most closely to and my boss wahaha. Yeah! I can go off early. Oh well, this day, I was actually looking forward to go CG, however, somehow, there’s still part of me that did not want to go. So what’s that? Actually was me having driving lesson on Saturday morning 7.30am :S and CG hardly ends early haha. The thought of going home late kinda turn me off as I was afraid I might not be able to concentrate on driving the next day; waste money.

Anyway that’s aside, cause, I still went off at about 6.30pm and rush my way there. ^^ No more second thought and just get my ass there wahaha. When I reached the MRT, I just got the feeling that I will meet someone I know from CG and true enough, guess who I met at the bus stop? Hehe. The newly married LI PING!~ We had a good chat while on the way to Dorcas’s house. I managed to talk to her about the plans Ivan had and I was kinda excited haha. I guess I wanna see myself in that princess like gown ba.

When I was at Dorcas’s house, I had a nice chat with Mel and Brenda too. And we had combined CG this day. Oh my gosh so many younger people in the other CG haa. Noticed that I used the word younger? Hehe, this is just because I am younger and they are just younger wahaha. We had a great time in the presence of God and I felt SOO REFRESHED!~

Li Ping taught us about being a close friend to others and how to choose close friend. One question that she asked caught me thinking. The question goes like this “who do you consider your close friend now?”. This question was on my mind just recently as I remembered a few months backed when Dorcas taught us something about friends when we just started having connect groups. And once again it caught me thinking.

Ok exclude Ivan and God who is the other friend that I consider a close friend? After having a so called list of requirements, I guess God just reminded me by putting a picture in my mind and at that very moment, I almost cried and everything turned clear to me yes she’s the one. However another thing that makes me wanna cried is to know that I may not be her close friend. Haha. Well I guess I have not been a really close friend to anyone and being interested in others is something I lacked ba. I guess this will be something I MUST work on it.

After CG, the drama put up by the people who went to the youth camp was great, and also the short discipleship haha. I RAISED BOTH HANDS FOR DORCAS TO TALK ABOUT THAT WAHAHA. Oh well that day, Ben was being a really good brother to send me home. Thanks. ;) I was really thankful I went CG, cause I felt even refreshed than before. I was almost not able to sleep haha.

The next day I woke up early for driving lesson and I PRAISE and THANK GOD for giving me the STRENGTH and CONCENTRATE throughout the whole lesson. I guess morning lesson is still the best for me. Everything went well just forgot some stuffs here and there, over all still good cause the uncle never really scold me and gave clearer instruction after the last lesson which was once again horrible wahaha anyway since it had already passed I shall not talk about it. I am just looking forward for my other lesson and pray that I will remember what I had learnt. ^^

After the lesson, I rushed to the dental and praise the Lord I need not wait too long and was able to take the shuttled bus to Raffles Place to take the train to Tampines to meet my BELOVED BABY wahaha I am so happy to see him again. After accompanying home to put his stuffs, I wanna thank his mum to do the laundry for him so we can go out early. Thanks auntie hehe.

This week dear treated me to JACK’s PLACE!~ Yummy nice nice. The food is nice; the service is good or rather almost excellent. I just enjoyed the time spent there and I guess I was really hungry, I almost finished the whole place my gosh. My dear was amazed too haha. When we finish the wonderful lunch we are on the way to church. =) THE MESSAGE WAS GREAT!~ THANK YOU PASTOR TAN wahaha. For those ladies who went shout PRAISE THE LORD & THANK YOU PASTOR TAN!~ Hehe. I guess we were all in the same flow.

This day was really GREAT!~ We went dinner with dear’s parents and was not late cause thank God Zhi Ming drove us to the MRT instead of having to take bus. Thank you Zhi Ming.

What a long day for me to think that I got less than 7 hours of sleep the night before. Thank God.

Another day had past and today is the book in day =( 1 and a half day just flew passed like that. Thank God we were able to watch the movie Get Smart and before that buy some comic books from Kinokuniya which is having 20% discount for member. =)

The movie Get Smart was nice and mainly funny I would say. You all should catch it one of these days before its gone hehe.
Once again I am truly blessed this week although I found out that the meal at Ding Tai Fung with my colleagues previously was not a blessed meal, I was even blessed by the gifts/presents I received by my dear and his mum.

Oh my gosh his mum bought me the swimming suit that we saw almost 1 year ago and was not able to buy because of the condition and ever since, she was going around to look for it for me when I already don’t really mind not having it. SO SWEET of her. Furthermore she bought the star earrings to go with the pendant she bought for me previously oh my. (She even wanted to buy me a bracelet for me at Goldheart when she wins lottery haa.) My gosh I felt so pampered by these words and actions she said and did.


Furthermore dear bought me 2 pairs of earrings just before booking in at White Sands. Oh my gosh it is like every week I got something from him and his mum haha and also his dad for always bringing us around to eat. I really have to thank God for such a wonderful parents my beloved has.


PRAISE THE LORD!~ I CAN NEVER DO THIS MUCH IF WASN’T YOU.
I LOVE YOU!~
Dear Jia you, you can do it, another week will just past at a blink of your eyes and here I am before you once again haha. We will see each other soon. God please bless him with GOOD HEALTH. AMEN!~

With Love, ♥

BEST PART OF THE DAY WAS NOT JUST THE PARTY but…

BEING ABLE TO MEET MY BELOVED DEAR DEAR AGAIN!~ His wonderful parents brought him to Pasir Ris Park to fetch me. The moment I saw my dear I suddenly felt relieved. IT’S SO GREAT TO SEE HIM AGAIN. Not just seeing him again but seeing him doing GREAT.

His parents left as alone to walk around and chatted. It’d been really hard on him but THANK GOD he made it through. I felt a change in him and I felt happy for it was for the better. After hearing what he experienced, I felt bad as I can’t be there for him physically but dear don’t worry I WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU SPIRITUALLY, MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. I will keep praying for you and I believe God hears my prayers and answers them.

He will watch over you. He will always be there for you, giving you the strength and encouragement you needed to go on. REMEMBER HE WILL NEVER FORSAKE YOU!~

Throughout these 2 weeks, I have realized what an important role you played in my life for the past 3 years. I was SOOO depended on you even the smallest thing you can imagine. Well it was also an alert that I should really learn to be independent once again. I can’t let you worry. It’s really hard for you in there and I guess that’s the least I can do for you so you can concentrate and do well.

THANK GOD FOR PUTTING YOU IN MY LIFE. THANK GOD FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO. I AM SO PROUD TO HAVE YOU AND PROUD OF YOU!

Last but not the least, I WANNA THANK MY BELOVED DEAR DEAR for BUYING THIS LOVELY BAG THAT CAUGHT MY EYES. MUACKS!~ I LOVE YOU MY CUTE CUTE DEAR DEAR AND CONGRATGULATE TO YOU FOR LOSING 2.5 KG. Well please don’t stress yourself too much, just do you BEST ok?


I WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU!~

With Love, ♥

BEST TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT

On 20 June 2008, my whole department was invited to the CrossWater at Pasir Ris Park for a time of GREAT FUN!~ Having just joined the bank for less than 2 months I am already felt SO BLESS! Through their hard work, we got the BEST TECHNOLOGY AWARD and were rewarded $10,000!! Yeah hoo!~ Therefore the whole event at the WaterCross plus gifts and prizes was worth that much.

The atmosphere was great for parties and dating. As it was by the beach, you can enjoy the sea breeze if ya sitting outside under the coconut tree. Wahaha romantic right? The door gift that was given was the voucher of CrossWater I guess I shall bring my beloved there within the next 2 months =)

The food was delicious and the price was about Swensen’s I think according to my friend who saw the menu. Just that the place is a bit inconvenient for those without cars haha as it was right inside.

During the whole event, we got games and were entertained by the PROFESSIONAL MC wahaha that one of my colleagues got. The first game was the so-called 7up and I was sabotaged. Man though I played it quite a number of times but how the MC played it was different. So I was OUT by the 3rd time I said wrongly. =( Haha but that was fun. Other than that we got skid by my colleagues directed by that MC, the super heros game.

After the whole dinner, I stayed a bit longer because my boss Louise wanted to dance. Oh my gosh and she dragged me along. And this is the FIRST time I ever did something like that. Later on, Marnie and Rowena and the few others joined and we had fun for awhile.

With Love, ♥

I am so blessed with FOOD

Haha as you can see from my title for the post. Oh well guess what I am blessed with. Okok I know food, but what food haha. Well.. I WAS BLESSED WITH DING TAI FENG THIS TIME hehe. Actually I wasn’t really sure if it is a blessed meal, it is always good to thank the Lord for every little thing.

Since I have not paid for it yet,
I AM BLESSED
with it. I really had great time spending with my Filipino colleagues. They are really nice and I enjoy being with them. Ok I AM DETERMINED to LEARN TAGALOG. It is always good to learn a new language, after all learning language comes with practice; you can’t possibly be talking to yourself, you need people around you to talk to you. So I am trying to pick up. At least went I still cannot managed to go for my Korean lessons; I am still learning another language, enriching myself.

I thank God that Brenda returned my call last Friday evening. Actually I was not in a very good emotional state. Ok
I miss IVAN SUM a lot. I felt a bit lost when he is not around, this day especially. At first I was not sure if I should go for CG, something pushes me when I remembered I gonna be alone at home if I go home early, yet there’s still part of me that don’t mind going home.

I worked till 8pm and while walking towards the bus stop, I was still considering. I give Brenda a call but after one ring I hung up, as I still not sure if I should just go. On the way I thought to myself, the more I am feeling weird, the more I should go as I was reminded, never run away from Godly people in times like that. Another thing was if she calls back, I will go. Ya I was trying to find whatever I got to convince myself that I should go.

Yes finally the entire struggle, I went. I am glad I went. Not only I was accompanied, I got to eat nice pasta prepared by Ben, celebrated Richard’s birthday and ate the YUMMY cheesecake with chocolate chip baked by Ben. Oh man
IT WAS YUMMY!!! Dear talked to the CG and somehow I felt touched haha. Haha I steal this photo to let my dear see it.

Anyway I am counting down to meeting you again my dear. Let’s Jia You!~

5 More days…

I AM SO BLESSED AND LOVED!~

I went to Ivan’s house today to visit his parents. When I reached his house, his mum just said I got something for you, since you are here; I do not want you to go back empty-handed.

In my heart, I was like aiyo why spend money and not that I was there to take anything right? However this reminds me of whatever you sow you will reap. Wahaha. His mum gave me a very beautiful. As you can see from the photo, it has some design around the heart and here what she explained:


“All these are not flowers, it’s diamond, and they make it look like diamonds so don’t be mistaken to be ‘hua xin’.”


Haha his mum is so cute. Well I really like the pendent from his mum; however, I am still looking forward for a very beautiful nice diamond necklace or whatever from him. After all I don’t really feel good accepting gifts from his mum especially these are not cheap things haha.

After his dad finished worked, he brought us for dinner at Bedok as I wanted to eat satay. I really left loved by his parents.
VERY VERY LOVED AND BLESSED indeed. I really thank God for such a wonderful parents of his.

GOD PLEASE PLEASE BLESS THEM 100-fold in return.

With Love, ♥

Thank God for FRIENDS!~

Last Friday, I had a hard time going to sleep. Images of the past having my dear with me flash through. The thought of knowing that he could not always be there waiting for me like in the past make my tears roll down uncontrollably. That night, I cried myself to sleep, praying hard in my heart to find peace in the Lord.

Indeed God took care of the smallest things of us. I slept really well and when I woke up, I found myself smiling. It was as if God is there smiling at me like I was doing. My heart was light and I just feel happy and cheering on the inside.

God is real, He bring HAPPINESS, JOY, LOVE and PEACE into our HEARTS. For this I know I can still stay strong when he is not here. (I must not let him worry.)

After my advance theory test (failed), I was disappointed yet not very upset (surprising). A successful man is not someone who never fails but NEVER GIVE UP!~ This was what’s in my mind, not just that, I also thought “if God allows it to happen, He surly has a reason for it”. For every bad thing never blame the Lord. It is because through trials you can be stronger.
I know God has already plans His way ahead for me.

I met up with Brenda for lunch at Causeway Point before meeting the rest to go to church. Her company was really great. I was feeling really HAPPY the whole time. Nothing’s burdening me, nothing that I am worried about. His peace was with me. His grace was sufficient for me.

For in His word He says in
2 Corinthians 12:9
And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.


I had a great time before, during and after service, fellowship was great though we really played lame games haha. Just being with them make me HAPPY wahaha.

Thank God for all of you.

Thank God for He is here with me always.

Last but not least, I have not forgotten you my dear, I may be enjoying but I STILL MISS YOU. So be rest assured hehe.

With Love, ♥

Good bye my love
please take GREAT care

This day has finally came; the day dear gonna learn to be a MAN haha. I managed to meet him in the morning despite feeling uncomfortable. Thank God that He gave me the strength to allow. Although I could not take leave to accompany him I thank God he is not angry with me. However I did not manage to go to work as I was down with diarrhoea. Haiz. I was suppose to not let him worry.

After meeting him, I went to see the doctor and went home to rest. Thank God that everything went well for him and he will booked out on the 20th June. I will be praying for you. I will be waiting for you. I will be missing you lots.

I believe you will always be spiritually here with me. I thank God for the bonding in the spirit. Yes. Without it I guess I can't be so strong after all. Thanks for the post in your blog. Thank you my dear.

God please let You divine protection be upon him always.

With Love, ♥

Changed Attitude Changed Mindset

After all that had happened, I finally realized what was wrong. He said “I don’t feel that you are enjoying your driving lessons, unlike Jocelyn who I can really see she is enjoying herself”. Ya this statement just hit me on the inside. Questions like why and I going through all this and finding it so hard was simply my attitude and mindset was not right from the beginning.

All I could think of was I am tired after the whole week of work. I need more rest. I can’t focus. I want to do better than the others. Time after time stress was all I am giving myself and yes convinced myself that I was still afraid of moving vehicles. The feeling of not able to control the vehicle really freaks me out.

However after hearing the word yesterday, I have decided to change my thinking and really leaning on Him. (It had been really hard for some reasons and I was crying out to Him.) This night, I prayed myself to sleep, seeking peace and rest in His presence.

I woke up in the morning in a cheerful and positive way. If you ask me what I did oh well, I simply smiled to myself, telling myself everything is possible with God and prayed for His strength and guidance. Another thing was I kind of practice how am I going to greet the uncle later. It was because a smile can brightens someone’s day especially in the morning and as a Christian I was supposes to bring joy to the people around me. Well I just hope it is still not too late for me to realize how important and how it can really make a different in someone’s life.

HURRAY after making sure my mood and emotions are in good condition, I went down prepared how my driving lesson. :)

I greeted the uncle as how I practiced it and everything went kind of smoothly. I did not panic easily as I left my fears with the Lord. I made minimal mistake as compared to the previous lessons and though the uncle do not know how to praise people, I knew I was progressing by the number of time I was ‘scolded’ wahaha.

The whole time was enjoyable and that’s the word ENJOYABLE. It was a wonderful feeling or rather experience as learning how to drive is no longer a chore but something I enjoy doing it and I know the money I am paying for is for something of value. (I used to have heartaches when I pay.)

This day, I went home with a smile and the joy I experience could be expressed by words but the smile of mine from ear to ear even my elder brother find me a bit crazy haha as I was kinda jumping, hopping around wahaha how silly I am.

Through all this that had happen, I REALLY NEED TO GIVE A BIG THANK YOU TO THE LORD and the word given that ENLIGHTENED me.

I WILL PRAISE THE LORD ALL MY DAYS!



With Love, ♥
Annabelle
