it's not a diary. it's a JOURNAL

Well hey! It's an uneventful day. Boss, lady boss and boss assistant are not around today. Borrowing a colleague's term, it's a non-government day lol. But once again that's not what I intended to blog. Udah lah pake indo aja males mikir lol. Anyway. There are 2 points I'd like to share to you (and a reminder to my future-self). First. I was reminded that many times I couldn't really enjoy sitting under God's presence because, well, gw kebanyakan mikir (....again). Gw mikir kalo harusnya gw ngerasa ini, itu, harusnya nangis2, tersentuh, kesetrum, begeter, dll. Gw diingetin sama kotbahnya Pak Harry (Hari? Herry? Hary?) Sabtu kemarin tentang speak in tongue. Lo ngarep dibaptis Roh Kudus itu kaya begini begitu, dan honestly, itu sadar ga sadar semacem ngelimitin cara kerja Tuhan sama kita. Kalo cara Tuhan nyembuhin orang di Alkitab aja beda2, kenapa cara Dia menyatakan Roh Kudusnya itu harus cuman semacem doang? Yaudah intin...

Yellow peeps! Been away for some time.. and it's suddenly June whoa! May's been super! :D I might post some pic from HK-Macau trip with the ladies. But that's not what I'm about to blog. Last week during mentorship, we are challenged to take a further step of faith by fasting and prayer. Honestly, fasting is not something 'natural' for me. I love food a little bit too much lolol. But what makes it harder is this : You may not realize this, but too often our prayer is actually a list of requests read out loud to God. And during this one month, while fasting, we're supposed to ask nothing BUT His presence and to solely focusing on GOD instead of His miracle or His breakthrough or His healing etc etc. To discipline myself, I'll be writing whatever revealed or taught to me during this one whole month. And yes, it's on daily basis. So. This is day 1. I was walking back home. Thinking about this friend of mine. More than ...

Yellow yellow!! Been a while. A long while. LOL. May's been.. Awesome. Not to mention Hong Kong in 3 days. Oh well ;) Here's a quick (or not-so-quick) recap for my future-older-self. Went back Indo early of the month just to give a birthday shout-out to my Daddy :) Got to see how my baby Muff has grown beautifully, with her red fur glowing. Imma proud mom. LOLS. Got to spend some time, heart to heart with Dad. Like, you think you know who your parents are? But then you grew up and realized that they are so much more than you ever thought about them. How they were once like you, young and naive and child-less. LOL. How they once went through the same stage of life like yours, making decisions that made them who they are today. Never thought that your parents wouldn't understand what 'this' feels like (whatever 'this' is), because they actually have been THERE first before you do. So, share things with yours. Hear what they...

Yellow peeps ;) A big shout out before I start rambling later. HAPPY PASSOVER/EASTER/RESURRECTION DAY!!!!!!! Whatever the term, today is the remembrance that I live because Someone else had died for me. Hope you guys had the most super awesome long weekend, as I did. Mom's here!! Awesome, right? I'll attached the bw selfie of us, taken using #tongsis from WW lol. We went cafe/brunch hopping. Shop. Eat. Shop some more. And we had some talk. "Talk" Maybe I'll share a bit on the next post. If I feel like it lol. Anyways! Just want to share how amazing life is when you know that you are taken care of. For me, to be able to find happiness and gratitude in the simplest things in life is the definition of 'blessed'. Like noticing how the bus reached just in time when you reached the bus stop. And just now, we, Billy, Ijah and I went for a meeting for the TLG worker's retreat. On the first meeting last wee...

Yellow peeps!!!! AWESOME DAY. Had a sleep-over last night. Followed by a hearty brunch session. Planning to go to Toby's Estate, but then they happened to serve only toast and coffee due to some kind of renovation. So Kith Cafe it is. Their brioche yogurt was superrrrrrrniceeeeee I might go there for the yogurt itself lol. Not forgetting the cozy and relaxing ambiance and the cool drizzly air. Perfect brunch. Perfect companions. Yesterday during cell group fellowship, the topic given was about being an epistle of Christ. Cut thing short, I happened to be reminded that in order to be one 'open-letter' that can be read by basically anyone, we must live a transparent life. A life that is so pure and acceptable so there is no misunderstanding when other ppl sees it. Well, it's true. You can't control what ppl thinks about you. You can't control ppl's opinion on you. But you definitely can control where you are and what you ...

Yelloooww peeps! Long time no blog! Life's been busy, as usual. Live update. Trying the eyelash extension last week. Bahaha! I felt a bit bimbo-ish myself. Well. Never say never. But it turned out quite great. Woke up with bigger eyes and (kinda) fresher looks. They say it should lasts for 3-4 weeks, but I think those lashes were just too delicate for me. Two weeks tops, I say. See how lol. Current hobby : cafe hopping. Have visited a few cafes located in 'rural' area (if Singapore got any). Best part is when we're researching which one to go, leafing through people's blog and food diaries. GoogleMap-ing or GoThere.SG-ing best routes to be taken, I feel like some kind of Indiana Jones in my own treasure hunt. My own cafe-hunt. Bahaha yeah right. Okay. Get to the 'pondering' part. Last week Mom shared her office fellowship's material. I don't remember all (my bad my bad), but it's about taking up the ...

Bye Bye Monday! And see you soon next week...! (Said no one ever. LOL) Blogging in Bahasa because, well, because I just want to. Haha! Here goes. Uhuy! Lama banget ga nulis pake Bahasa. Jadi berasa... Awkward. Ngomong2 soal awkward, Sabtu kemaren sih awkward bgt........ Ok gw ga mau mikir kesana. Mending mikirin yg penting2. Tadi gw, Pricil, Tirza, doa bareng2 drmh gw. Gw diingetin tentang beberapa hal. 1. Masalah hati Kemarin ini gw denger tentang praise and worship, dan kaitanny ttg mindset kita. Jadi sependengaran gw adalah : kita harus belajar dari Abraham. Kan disuruh ngorbanin anaknya, but in the end, sebenernya Tuhan sendiri udah kirimin domba buat dikorbanin. Sering kita punya mindset 'Tuhan ini aku, pake aja aku' pas lagi PW (emang lg buat anak2 PW sih ini sharenya), tp sebenernya yg perlu kita bawa waktu PW adalah Yesus, yg Tuhan udah kasih buat ganti korban itu sendiri. Ok maap ribet dikit. Intinya. Gw jadi berpikir....
