worship
i took the day off uni today, cos my back hurt alot, and i couldnt get out of bed, and mainly cos I had to do alot of chores, call insurance, laundry, etc. But now I am waiting for Josh to come pick me up so I can go print somepapers of the net (I need them for study). I'll probably be up all night tonight studying for a test tomorrow.
But, as I said before, i turned off the tele for awhile, and put on the planetshakers CD... and the 2nd song came on - all of a sudden it just clicked and hit me: I'm put here on earth for a reason. That's why I am not dead right now. That's why people were interceeding for my life. And I wanna thank God I'm alive right now (it just occured to me to thank Him). I'm gonna praise Him. I'm gonna glorify His name. I'll live to glorify His almighty name. I'll live to serve Him. I'm gonna lift His name High up, I'm gonna satisfy my calling and purpose in this life for him.
I'm NEVER gonna stop praising Him. I'm ALWAYS gonna be here,
praising my Jesus, Lord and Savior. I'M NEVER STOPPING. Though it'll be hard at times and easy sometimes, Lord Help me never to lose sight of the
BIG picture..
So yeah people! no matter what I'll CHOOSE - make a choice, to Praise HIm. Its so hard sometimes, on sunday I had to make a choice to lift my hands and praise him at church, the CCW. On sunday when I lost my biggest asset. I have to choose. Its not easy, I had to fight the battle inside. TO praise HIm, cos he is in control. I still didnt feel anything after I praised him, but i think, the healing began then. I'm still on the way, sometimes I get really bad flashbacks about the accident, but I'll still hold on to my Jesus. He's so BIG.. bigger than anything you can ever hope or dream of.

Accident
Hi all
as most of you guys know already, I had an accident on the way to Josh's house yesterday, the 29th August 2004. I was so close to Josh's - at the intersection of second street and arthur street (josh lives on the 4th)... yeah.. i was on the way to worship practice and I was late. I was driving straight on arthur street(its a main rd), and then in front of me, i think this mitsubishi turned right from 2nd street onto arthur street. She didnt give way or anything, though there was this huge "GIVE WAY" sign. At the same time as she turned, this big 4 wheel drive car rushed straight ahead. like.. straight ahead... it was going at like 60 km/h, i think it wanted to beat that car. they collided, straight infront of me. I couldnt do anything - i didnt even have time to react.
I think my car spun around and they hit my baby in the back as well. and then my baby came to stop at the stubby pole. I like, couldnt believe what was happening. I saw petrol or some liquid (coolant maybe) pouring out from the 4 wheel drive, and i panicked cos I couldnt get my car door to open. I tried all 4 doors, luckily the last one opened. I ran out looking like a mad woman. It was only then that I realised the 4 wheel drive was overturned, and there was a child in the car. They had to lift the kid and the father out of the windows of the jeep. and the other woman had to be cut out from her car. And she was in full shock, had to be given morphine at the hospital. The ambulances came, and took us away in stretchers. Josh came with me. I dont know what i would have done without josh. He was a rock.. he kept on reassuring me that it wasnt my fault and I would be fine. The ambulance ride was alright, the paramedic guy kept on talking to me.
me? I was fine after awhile. Im a little angry now... how can this happen to me? it always happens to me. Ive been in australia for 2 1/2 yrs, and this will be my 3rd car im getting. But the thing that struck me the most was the love and support and encouragement that I received. I love you guys. thank you so much for your support. I mean, Aaron, sam and Nat rushed to the hospital to see me, though i was in only for 1/2 and hour. And Sam and Ming were there at the crashsite (they had been driving past and saw me) thank you so much for everything. Josh's parents also offered me to stay the night, they are so caring and loving. It also made me realise even more that God has a plan for my life, and I have to trust Him. I know that PJ and Michelle were interceeding for my life that day, because the Holy Spirit prompted them to at that time of the accident. I just have to find out what that plan for my life is, danmnit. I need to KNOW. I know that Im put on this planet for a reason, and a purpose that is bigger what I'll ever be or become.

hahaha stupid funny story
hey all.. hahaha i was reading my brother's blog.. apparently he and his friends found some graffitti in the school auditorium haha this is what it said:
"Dear God
please answer my prayer. All I want is to be thin again like last time. Please help me God.
Love,
Your child"
there was a reply underneath which read:
"Dear Child
for God's (the "God" was cancelled out) My sake stop praying and START EXERCISING! and eating less of those junk foods would certainly help
Love,
God
isn't that funny??? wahaha i couldnt stop laughing when I read that. so farny i buay tahan. today i didnt do much.. just bummed at home.. got rudely awakened by shouts at home at 3am last night, and i went to Riana's 21st. I rocked up so damn late. this is my cousin we are talking about here. People didnt really help much by making all those comments about how she's my cousin and how I should have got there earlier. I mean... as if I don't feel bad enough.
I mean, come on. of all my cousins in Adelaide. No, let's make that even in singapore. Riana has been, and is the most generous and willing cousin I ever have. i mean, she is the cousin that has always always been there for me, and I know she always shall. From when I came to Adelaide, she is the only one that really trully cares about my welbeing when I first got here. I realise and feel it. At first I just thought she was catching up with me cos her mom made her to do the stupid "family thing", but i soon realised she's not. And I missed (kind of) her 21st. I mean.. i feel so bad already.
My point is, Riana is the only person that I really consider family in my heart. Not her family, not jonathan (are u kidding me?) not his family (stop joking). AND I MISSED HER 21ST. i feel like crap now. im so sorry riana. i really really am.

how to tagboard??? damn it wont work...
how exactly do you get a tag board? HOW HOW HOWHOWHOWHOWW??
Its so frustrating... thanks william for doing it for me, but i still cant do it..
anyway, yeah its wednesday morning, having a free hour now before my next two lessons. Thought I just might try to figure out stuff with my blog. The worship class went alright (i think), and then i sent Jen back home, and had a loong chat with her.. and then karen came in, and we started organising what to do this friday for the girls. The guys are going to laser skirmish, so we thought we would organise something special for the girls.. its gonna be make-your-own-sushi-night and DVD stayover night. Karen's got this big house that she's house sitting at the moment, so yeah all you girls are invited! any details please call karen or myself. DOn't have our phone nos? then get it from our small groups. We are watching the Family Man and any others you wanna bring along. haha
yeah.. im getting myself out of that funk.. that "i can do nothing cos i cant be bothered funk" which is pretty cool. The Olympics have started. Cos my classes ended at 5pm, i went home with Dan and Josh, and had dinner at Josh's place. So paiseh, cos I always go there for dinner. At first I told Dan to drop me off at Coles so I could get my groceries, but then Josh told his mom I was there, so she invited me for dinner. I mean, what else can she do.. I felt so damn paiseh. I know I shouldnt, but I do. Any suggestions? Then we watched the Olympics.
nothing else to write that i can think off, so ill see you guys next time

time wasting...
Today is such a
time waster for me. I woke up late, went to my lecture at 11am, had lunch with Josh at subway, and i just didnt feel like doing anything, but shopping.. this is really bad. I said on friday night i was gonna give up shopping, and I am trying to stick to it, but its so hard... i nearly bought this dress... $50 bucks, its a bargain (at that clearance store place). Right now I do not have any mood at all to study, or to do anything, but waste time.. ive got so many bills to pay as well... telephone, my car rego, car insurance, driving liscense, Uni fees... vocal lessons fees.. everything seems to come in at once.. its so annoying.. looking at those bills, i really do not have the heart to study.. from saturday till now ive just been wasting time.. cant be bothered to doing anything.. why?? the only thing I've done productively since saturday morning is to clean my room, wash my clothes and do my dishes...
IVE GOT NO MOTIVATION...... HELP ME GOD.... I DONT EVEN FEEL LIKE DOING MY JAMJAR OR ANYTHING... I REALLY DO NOT HAVE THE MOOD... but ive got such a busy week ahead of me..
Tuesday night im starting a worship class with Neil, Jen and Joyce. This means I have to organise my lesson tonight. My math assignment is due tomorrow as well, so this means a sleepless night for me tonight. Wednesday night Ive got Leader's meeting and dinner. Thursday night Im babysitting, Friday Ive got a bible study to prepare for - im giving it..
see?
SEE?????
and right now ive got no motivation whatsoever to start doing what im supposed to be doing.. GOD help me..

Alrightio, ive done it - my first posting
Hey people!
Thanks heaps for visiting this.. there's not much. I just feel so inspired by various people to start a blog.. mainly i dont wanna look like a loser no more, since my brother and sisters (aged 13 and 9 respectively) all have blogs. Plus, TImothy, amy, derek, chongji (yes even cj), amanda angelia and benson all have blogs so I WANT MY OWN!! I know im spoilt, but i dont care... wahahaha
today was alright.. oooo!! i bought a pair of SASS and BIDE jeans. COme one its SASS and BIDE!! it cost me heaps, and it took ages for me to save up (ive been wanting a pair ever since February I think). I also bought a pair of Uggies! How cool is that?? I ran into Serena and Channy at JayJAys, and me n channy convinced serena to get a portmans jacket. You should see it! she looked really really good in it!! and then i went for my voice lesson.. Katya was telling me to use my head voice when I am singing in church, and not try to stretch my chest voice. Yeah I should do more of that and practice singing more.
SO yeah!! my first day writing in my blog. I can get used to the idea of an online sorta diary...
Deb
Oh yeah if u have any more comments, or anything just comment alright???
