| | I'm getting incredulously bored with mulling over my last assignment for this semester and thought I will let my other thoughts flow in this blog. I haven't written in the longest time and feel like pouring out here tonight:)
"How's married life?", many would ask and I would reply with a smile that I'm absolutely loving it and really happy to be living in my Dream Home with James Boy...I have always wanted a house that I can be proud of and show hospitality to family and friends, love to play host. We are going to celebrate our 5th year together and 5th month of marriage coming 28th and 22nd April respectively. What's with number 5 eh?:) haha!:) We enjoy cooking together, something therapeutic for us to do after a long busy day at work... enjoy the cutting and cooking:) We've mastered some decent dishes that we can cook for people to eat, our fave spanish omelette (potato-cubes as base, tipped with egg, ham, shitake mushrooms, red pepper), beef marinated in red wine, pasta (linguine with tomato-based prego sauce with loads of ingredients), stir-fried vegetables, tom yam noodles and most recently fried soba with ham/meat. :) We like relaxing on our barang barang sofa for a movie date or watching 'American Idol, Ninja Warrior, etc' together after our work day. Always look fwd to weekend when I don't have assignments to do, so we will go out for good food, shop around, do housework, grocery shopping, meet up with family and friends and go church.
We are in transition actually as we are seriously considering moving to LSBC for good. I have been struggling for so many years. What always held me back is the deep friendships and bonds I share with my good old friends where we all grew up together and went through different phases together. But I really lack motivation to go for the true purpose to worship God and be renewed in mind and spirit. So after months of going for the sake of going, we went LSBC for Easter Service and I think that's a very good start - it's like a new beginning of our Christian Life. I don't know how we will transit, but we hope to do so responsibly and not 'burn bridges' as what Uncle Chris said. There are very very good people but I guess we don't see ourselves there in the long run...so we are moving on and making transitions. It was only our first time going to LSBC last Sunday, so we will see how we will move on from there. Another objective is to bring my brother to church - I brought him several times before our wedding and he was keen to go but we stopped when we got busy with wedding preps. I teared like mad during the worship, thinking about how much I would miss bsc and the people there when we eventually move. This is going to be difficult, but I believe necessary.
Uncle Chris and family & Junwen came over for dinner on 1st April:) He spoke about his vision from the Lord to set up 'FIREPLACES' and he asked us to consider opening our home for a Bible Study Group next year. A fireplace lights up the home (shining testimony!), shares warmth (fellowship and warmth of Christian love) and provides food (nourishment of Spiritual food and supper!) - i like the analogy of the fireplace - we will see how this goes...definitely open for consideration. :)
Workwise, been loaded with responsibilities, not sure if I really want to go for the HODship in the upcoming 2-3 years and whether I am up to it. But yea, been taking on stuff and the year started off really overwhelming, things are running now so it's better, but now got more add-on big stuff...haiyoh. The future is uncertain yet very very exciting, as we hope to start a family soon...james boy may do his masters overseas...i'm finishing off my degree this year. So yea, lots to look forward to, but meanwhile, I have to finish up my last TMA (tutor marked assignment!)...wanna do a hat-trick by scoring my third 80 marks. haha...Maybe not...this last one so difficult. :( May God grant me grace, diligence, focused-mind, motivation, inspiration and flow of thought to complete this essay. I have another 24 hours to deadline. :(
May the words of my mouth
And the meditation of my heart
Be pleasing to You.
