Blood, blood, blood...



My nose bled again for the third time!!! Wondering what's wrong with me. Today, it bled for quite sometime. I was on my way back to the office from the toilet, and felt that my mucus is running down, so I hurried to my desk and get my tissue. When I clean my nose, then I saw blood. Oh my... It was so shocking to me, never once, I bled consecutive 2 days. My colleagues were shocked, one of them was very nice, she is also called Regina. ahha. She make ice cubes for me to put on my nose (although dunno how does it helps), then she ask me to lay backwards in the pantry, I was allowed to rest in the pantry though. haha. Then she gets tissue for me as she said toilet rolls are too rough, yeah indeed too tough for my young pretty nose. haha. But after around 5 mins, it still did not stop, so she went to the doctor with me. There is a clinic in Singapore Post Building, so all we did is just taking the lifts. Dun worry, ppl. haha. I din even take money along with me. She prepared everything for me. She paid for me and prepared tissues for me. She is 37 la, can be my god mother. haha.


The same doc attended to me again, this time round the consultation fees are waived, as I just went to see him yesterday. He just simply asked me to rest. I asked him what are the causes of nose bleeding, he just said there are many. Because in my case as acute(sudden nose bleed), its hard to tell why. Not answering me right? goodness. Anyway, I think that I am heaty la. I drink 2 packets of milo in the morning. Dont scold me Pauline! hahaha.


Eventually, the bleeding stops. Then I took some medication and rest in the office. I did not take leave to rest because, I can only claim MC after 6 months, but I can claim the medication fees. So ironic right. My colleagues asked me to take half day leave home to rest or dun come to work tml, but I was reluctant cos I do not want to waste my annual leaves, so I endured. hahah. I got fish porridge for my lunch haha. My colleagues packet for me la. haah Anyway, God had really bless me with these ppl around me. I felt like a princess in this company. haha. Well, everything here is good, just that the jobscope is meaningless to me, not challenging. haiz.


I am surviving another few more months, haha, I dunno when I will leave but I just felt soon!!! haaha. Soon to do God's work. hahaha. Cya. :)


Still Recovering Soon,

I am sick...



Early morning, I woke up this morning, feeling very weak. I caught a cold. Oh my goodness and before I left my home, I got nose bleed. aiyo. But it stopped very soon. So I continue to leave for work, though I am very unwillingly. ahha. I was very tired yeaterday, I slept at 11am. But I just couldn't get into my dreamland, I was half asleep, half awake. haha.


When I was on the train, I was feeling very out of breath in the MRT. Probably too many ppl make the environment stuffy, and it makes me headache too. haha. When I reached my office, goodness, the sore throat got worse. Soon, I lost my beautiful voice but end up with a sexy voice. haha. Wanan listen? haha. In the late afternoon, around 3.45pm. My nose bleed again, this time round is more serious. It bled for quite sometime. Its my right hole of my nose, just for your info. haha. Disgusted rite. haha. I hurry to the toilet and stop the bleeding. Then I told my colleagues that I got nose bleed twice, they asked me to visit the doctor at B1. So I went. haha. Ate the med and lozenges. The doc, not pro at all. LOUSY. Anyway, getting bored on this topic.


Many ppl are getting sick and heaty. Do drink lots and lots of water. Hahah. And of cos, let's pray for one another. hhaha.


Recovering soon,

Freda

The moment I heard that the Worship Team is going for dinner at Long House , My heart sank. haha. So exggerating rite. haha. no la. I dislike the food at Long House. Seriously I felt that the food there basically cannot make it. So awful!!! hahaah. Too bad, I have to go with the majority. If I have a choice, LONG HOUSE will never be one of my options!!! ahaha. I sorry to those who love Long House Food. No offence of what I have blogged. haha.


Ok dun talk about food liao. haha. My stomach is not feeling very well today. I felt bloated, my stomach is blunging out already. hhaaha. But I am hungry!!! Goodness. I think my future hubby cant stand my constant topic on food and food only. To be honest, sometimes I cant stand myslf too. hahaha. FOOD! FOOD! FOOD! hahaa. Whats up man. haha. We cant live without food rite? hah. I have lots of excess to share. Anybody wants? haha. Ok, I know I am entertaining myself. haha. I am waiting for time to pass, to knock off!! Yeah. ANother 45mins time. hehe.


Excited Excited Excited. Excited of what's happening in the next 3, 5, 10, 15 years. haha. In next 3 years, most of our youths in church will become genuinely adults. haha. YEah. I will be one of them too. 5 Years down the road, many will be working, and our church will prosper with their increase in income. haha. 10 years down, many would have married with kids. And thats when our church doubled. tripled. in numbers. haha. Yeah. Interesting satistics. haha. I am seriously bored. hahah. Sian Sian Sian. haha.


Well, what I am really excited is about the process of church growth. I am excited to see how our church prosper in numbers, how each member grow in their faith and spiritual level. haha. Well, life is really getting exciting. So many things coming up. So many events coming our way. Oh are you excited? Somehow I feel that my dreams are not leaving me very far. Its getting nearer.

Mos Burger...



I am craving for MOS BURGER!!! hahaha. If you guys do not know, food has the power to light up my day. hahhaha. Dunno why, I just felt like eating that. haha. Ever since I last ate that with Sylvia, I fallen in love with teriyaki chicken meal. hahah. Nice nice. haha. ok, shall not talk about food that much, thinking of food can make you fat. Thats science ok. hahah


Went for Prayer Meeting this evening. I had a headache on the way to church, wondering whether it is due to the nervousness towards preaching. hahah. ok, rubbish. I had a headache around 4.30pm. haha. Taken 2 tables of panadol from Titus, felt better after that. haha. Thanks Thanks.


I was inded nervous when I was preaching, I was stammering. hahaha. Everyone were looking at me so seriously, like going to eat me up, esp Pastor and Titus. Hello, its my first attempt. Give me room for improvement can? haha. I preached the topic on "Rekindling the Fire". It was a sermon drafted out all by me ok, not by other sources. Proud of myself actually. I felt that I am better in preparing the message than delivering the message. Seriously, I know there are lots of comments from you guys on my preaching. And to be honest, I know what I should do. My stage presentation is bad. It seems that I am reading off my notes, no eye contact with concregation, blah blah. Don't worry, I am not discouraged. haha. I felt I still need to have a big breakthrough in this area. I am not bold enough to do all that. Somehow, I still have the side of introverty in me. haha. But well, I told God I will work harder next time. haha. I mean it ok. haha.


Seen Jordan behaving differently these days. Seeing him taking charge of his role given to him really motivates me to work harder for the CROSS. I never seen him so serious before. Haaha. All the way JORDAN. Your rewards are waiting for you. ahah. Bunglow in Heaven? Yeah. haha. All the way Church, we will survive no matter how tough our journey may be. :)


With You,

Aiyo...



Well, life has not been very positive for most of us. But let us be united allow God to work things out differently for us ok? Remember, Circumstances comes and go. It will not stay permenantly with us. haha. As for me, I found out that I have been very positive. I am strong. Remember there was a period where I was super down, but God really did something powerful in me. I realised somethings you cannot hold on too tight. When it is time to let go, let go. And I really felt relieved somehow. haha. Ok, I think most of you don't catch wat I am talking. haha.


Oh yeah, another news,I will be getting my bonus at the end of November. YEAH. haha. That wont be much la. I think I will only be getting a few hundreds only la. Pro-rated. Saddist. haha. Better than nothing ya? haha. Well, currently looking for new meaningful job opportunites. haha. Sssssssshhhh. keep it to yourself. haha. No concrete ideas yet, update on this matter again. hahh.

Anyway, I am quite worried to be back in Worship Team as a vocalist for a month. Not very used to singing. haha. I think I can't sing very well. I dun have strength to sing or lead, always using my JIA YIN. hahaha. Well, I still hope I will be of help to Worship Team la. Dun expect too much ah. ahha. But rest assured, I will give you guys my full support for the 1 month haha. Anyone wanna join Worship Team by offering your beautiful voice to God? hahah. Free advertisement. Ok, I am bored, ahah. Waiting for another 15 minutes to knock off. hahahha


Somehow I think I am crazy sometimes. haha. ok, enough of my nonsenses. I felt Sunday fellowship was good. I enjoyed the food. Thanks to Andrea, Pauline and Sylvia for your help. ahaha. We had our HLC very own Seoul Garden!!! Regina, you missed it. haha. The food were really great. We had bbq and steamboat in church. haha. I mean it was a great experience. haha. Regina, dont worry, you will try it one day. hahah.

I am also very sleepy. haha. I am actually waiting for time to pass!! I just cant stand that I am doing so little!!! Time passes so slowly!!!! Wah liao.


Well, just for all your informations, my home internet service is down. I will not be online for the whole of this week. If you do not see me online, don't worry. I am still alive. haah. If you miss me, then you can simply call my hp or sms me. haha. I will gladly entertain you. hahah. I think you must be thinking Freda is crazy. Can you imagine how bored I am? haha


Oh ya, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Titus for helping me to put up the song "One Live, One Love". It's simply a great sing. Especially the chorus. I hope you enjoyed as much as I do. The lyrics can be found in Pauline's blog. DO visit hers, if you are curious. hahah.


I just felt a sense of anxiousness. hahah. I do not know what is going to happen in future. But I am praying for a miracle. I still love you guys. :)

Wonderful Memories



I think I am good in choosing Titles or Names. haha. I realised my Title gives people the sense of anticipation. haha. Abit bhb here. haha. Ok, enough of bhbness. haha.


I went to surf friendster website this afternoon during lunch time. Wow. Time really really flies. Just another few weeks, O'levels will be over. And that marks the separation of my friends and I for 2 years. Wow. Thats long. Seen a few of my friend's friendster and realised that everyone of us really grown. All ladies are much gorgeous now. haha. Just like ME!! hahah. What about the guys? haha. For you info, I came from an ALL GIRLS SCHOOL!! YEah. SJC rox! haha. Esp 4 Faith. I went through my files at home and found out that there is an envelope which contains my prom night photos. Wow. What a big fat lady I am seeing in the pic. haha. THAT'S ME!!! hehe. All these pics really reminded me, my times in school, all that we done and all the smiles n tears that we shared with one another. I really really missed those days. Those innocent and rebellious period of my life. Then, My friends and I did stupid things for fun and studied so damn hard for our papers, but all these really paid off. haha. All these memories, I will not forget. All these plays a big role in who I have become today. Unhappiness in the past has also became a sweet aroma in my memories. haha


Many went JCs and Polys. Some are attached or even cohibit already. haha. We all went different ways and met up with many new friends. Life were planned out differently for each individual. At least mine was planned so surprisingly. haha. I am happy of where i stand in the society today. What I feel that I lacked of, that will be the opportnities to meet people of my same age. I need to widen my circle of friends so that I can do outreach ya? haha. Everything in life is geared towards building God's house la. haha.


Somehow, I am excited about my life. I dun want to lead an ordinary man's life, but an extraordinary one. Well, I am just so excited on who I am going to meet and tasks that are coming my way. Haha. Though it will be tough and challenging, but its the process that gives me the motivation and the result which gives me the satisfaction. haha.


I want to be at the top notch, what about you?

the best has yet to be,

Freda

Finally 3 Months



Time really flies. Today, 10 Oct'07 is my 3rd month of working in Sanyo. haha. My manager spoke to me this morning, asking me how am I coping with the jobscope. All I said was ok. She asked me if I will be continuing, of cos I said yes. ( I knew in my heart that I won't be staying long ). I felt bad, but I cannot tell them that I don't have interest right? haha. Anyway, lets see how God will fulfill His plan in me. haha. I have yet to sign the letter of confirmation. Hopefully there will be a little increment. Peeps, pray for me!!! haah.


I went shopping with Regina this evening. haha. We went Far East Plaza. We had disgusting food for dinner. ALamak. Regina had slice fish rice but it was just so awful. The fish in the picture were those white cooked fish with gravy. But it came fried slice fish. Alamak. Mine was even worse. I ordered western food. ( Fried chicken cutlet, toast butter bread, baked beans and egg ). But they were short of bread, so that came asked me if I can change the bread to rice or fries. I said I dun want both. Then I asked for a change, she said cant cos they already fried the chicken. So I said I want beehoon with the chicken. She said cannot. So after awhile, they said ok. The boss was unhappy la. She cooked those thick bee hoon with some veg and black sauce with the fried chicken and serve me. It was just so cheapskate lo and taste like black sauce with noodle. No standard. It cost $4!!!! I miht as well cook myself at home!!! And, Each of us drank the so called corn soup brewed by them. It cost $1 a bowl but taste like salt water. Goodness!!! I was so not satisfied for my dinner la!! Felt kana cheated!!!!


After dinner, we went to shop around the building. But, nothing caught our eyes and we left for AMK Hub. I bought a top at the Korean stall!! ahha. It cost $29.60. I liked that very much. hhaa. Will wear on friday. yeah!!!

We bought the flavor mango aloe vera and share. Haha. I din like it at all. Too thick. real yoghurt man. Reg liked it. haha. SHe said she will try other flavors next time. hha.

A Walk To Remember


Pauline and I watched the movie A Walk To Remember by Mandy Moore and Shane West this afternoon. It is a 2002 film set in the mid-1990s Wow, an inspiring show, that really makes me ponder. haha. Well, what is love?


The tagline of the show is: Love is like the wind. You can't see it but you can feel it.


Totally agree with that phrase. I never thought that love can be discribed as wind. But yeah, we can't see but only feel.


A summary of the Show:


When a prank on a fellow high-school student goes wrong, Landon Carter (Shane West) is threatened with expulsion. His punishment is mandatory participation in various after-school activities, such as tutoring disadvantaged children and acting in the drama club's Spring play. At these functions he is forced to interact with Jamie Sullivan (Mandy Moore), a girl he has known for many years but with whom he rarely interacted. When Landon realizes that he needs help learning his lines for the play, he asks Jamie for help. She agrees to help him if he promises not to fall in love with her, to which he responds, "That's not a problem", thinking she was the last person with whom he would ever fall in love. Later, Jamie asks Landon if they were still on for practice that afternoon to which he replies, "Only in your dreams", because he was with his friends. When Landon goes to her house for practice, she refuses to open the door. When she eventually does, she sarcastically remarks that they can be "secret friends." She slams the door in his face when he agrees.


Landon eventually learns the script by himself. During the play, Jamie, who is wearing her costume, astounds Landon with her beauty. Landon kisses Jamie during the play, which was not in the play's script, and the two pursue a relationship afterwards. He takes her out to dinner and helps her with her wish list, like being in two places at once and getting a tattoo (it's a temporary in the movie).


Jamie finally tells Landon that she has terminal leukemia and has stopped responding to treatments. As Jamie is hospitalized, Landon fulfills various wishes on Jamie's list, such as building her a telescope so she can see a comet. Through this process, Landon and Jamie learn more about the nature of love. The movie ends with Jamie's death, but only after the couple are married in the same chapel as was Jamie's deceased mother, the event that topped Jamie's wish list. Landon himself becomes a better person through Jamie's memory, achieving the goals that he set out to do, like she did.


Four years later, Landon visits Jamie's father. It is obvious that Jamie helped him to focus and become a better person. For example, he reveals he has finished college and been accepted to medical school; prior to meeting her he had no plans for life after high school. He tells Jamie's father that he is sorry he could not grant Jamie's wish to witness "a miracle" before she died. Her father says, "She did. It was you."


Mandy Moore is a girl full of Faith. She did not blamed God for the terminal illness at her very young age. She live her life righteous even when everyone else outcast her in her school. She did what was right. She was outcast because she was "HOLY". But God was good, she gave her someone that accompanied her to her deathbed. Even though it was just a short moment or period of time before she left, but she experienced the miracle before her death, which is Shane West.


The show was touching because it shows the power of LOVE. However, after watching the movie, I realised every relationship with one another is a walk to remember. Life is really short and precious. Though you may be healthy, but we can't predict accidents. Nowadays, even exercising (the most important activity in our live) can be an accident. So my point is, we should treasure all our time with one another, give surprises ocassionally, dun wait till the next time or next meeting, cause there may be no more NEXT!



To me, every relationship to me is a walk to remember. Because, there is something special in all relationship that I treasure.


Enjoy the song...only hope. :)


Being loved,

Freda

Haha



I miss Mata. Our Sylvia!! Where are you? haha. Have not heard from you for so long. Anything happening over at your side? besides the internet connection is down? haha. All is fine in Singapore. Just that, we are somehow still stagnant in the no. of members in our church. So well, members of HLC, let us work harder for salvation shall we? haha. 30 end of this year!!!! Yeah!


Life is getting more stable. I mean in the area of my work and relationship. I am finally getting busier at my work place. I do not know how long will it last la. haha. But its better to have something to do than slacking there and waiting for time to pass. haha.


My emotions are much stable now. I have learnt to handle my discouragements and disappointments better. haha. Honestly speaking, my strength really comes from God. No one else. Not even your closest partner, parents, sisters or friends. The power to touch within, only comes from one source. Our God.


I watched a church service online last night. I was just so refreshed. I am charged up to do great things for God!! Holy spirit is working within me to prompt me in working towards my goal, my aspirations, my dreams. haha. Obstacles can be overcomed. Discouragements can be turned into Encouragements. It's the way you look at things that come your way. And most importantly, its the decision whether you want to accept the help from our Savior King.


So, are you convicted to be a Christian? A christian that leads others or a lukewarm Christian that don't even do what a christian should do. We christians are diff from non-christians. Now, you may see no diff. But God says in the bible. Tithers will be bless abundantly.

The LIGHT leads the LIGHT. Are you that LIGHT? Well, I wanna be that LIGHT that I am called to be. :)

I think we've been here before
I recognize this place
I've seen the marks of confusion
wipe out a single sign of grace
And I don't want to play anymore
Not when the stakes are so high
So before we circle round once more
I'm gonna lay down,
Lay down my pride


Let it go, let it be
Don't waste all your emotion on this
tit-for-tat machine
Let it go, let it be
Let it go


I turn on the TV
and it screams out at me
Nothing seems to have changed
since the start of Adam and Eve
So we're waiting for the sky to fall
and we're buying brand new toys
But before we circle round once more
Can we lay down
Just lay down this pride


Let it go, let it be
Don't waste all your emotion on this
tit-for-tat machine
Let it go, let it be
Let it go
Don't go wasting your emotions
No one wins if we keep score
Let it go, let it be
Let it go


I came across This interview with Corrinne May with FM 95. There were talking about this song. Let it go. For couples who actually quarrelled, or worries and blah blah blah. When both party quarrel, it's all thanks to pride. The root causes of all things. I realised I am running in a circle. Never seems to get out of it. Its time, I break the line of the circle and catch some new breath. I will let down my pride. I will be broken before the Lord and allow His restoration to take place.


Y02 support me!!! :)

Good Deed



Yesterday, I did a good deed. haha. Ok, actually i slack half the day yesterday. haha. Okay, I shall go straight to the point. I took a cab home last night after dinner with Pauline and guys, it cost $4.30, so I gave the uncle $10. But the uncle told me he has no change. He ask me if I have any small change to give him. But I only have like 80 cents. Then he said, then its ok. 80 cents will do. He said that it's his fault that he had forgotten to tell me that he have no change. I find that he is a nice uncle so I said, "uncle, its ok. Treat the extras as tips." Then he said, cannot cannot. Then I say its ok. Then he said. Thanks ah. haha. Then I closed the door and went home.


I really felt good after that. The reason why I decided to give him 10 bucks, not becos I am rich or wat. The money is important to me ok. Just that I see him as my elder. He worked so hard for his family. I am just doing him a little favor. I dun want him to do me a favor instead by not collecting money from me. As we all just learnt the sermon, "Honoring your Parents". He needs the money more than I so. Since I don't do donation, this is another way I can help those who ppl around me. haha. Well, I told my mum the incident yesterday night. But as usual, she was not happy. She say I am rich. haha. But well, I am happy after all. hehe.


Done a good deed,

Freda
