Thank you Lord for this new place, I still am in love with it.
The Lord knew it way before me that this last three months of my studies would be the peak of my workload. Never ending assignments and presentations. I couldn't have imagine how life would have been if I had remain in my old place. I would have been overwhelmed. Heh.
It's a strange thing here that even with my little sleep I do not feel lethargic. Maybe it's the air-con;) I could focus more with my work. I've come to conclusion that the environment you live in affects a large part of you. If given a choice I would love to stay in a condo all my life, unless i've a house with swimming pool haha.. going down for a swim after cooking is heavenly:)
The aunty invited me to her house for dinner just now. She prepared 8 dishes just for the 9 of us. She served us so well it feels as though I was in a restaurant. We had scallop, beef, chicken, tofu, broccoli, noodles...followed by jelly, layer cake & haagen dazs ice cream:)
It feels like home coming together with her church friends and relatives. It's a nice feeling to hear prayer said before a meal with everyone seated. It's nice walking home with the cold breeze. I met a Sec 2 girl and found out she actually went for Zone concert thru a friend friend=) Aunty even invited the two other girls there and me to phuket one day and she'll pay for the stay in Marriot =D
She then mentioned about her going to thailand recently to reach out to the four groups of people : orphans, prostitutes, AIDS children and disabled. One of the project they did was to buy over a land for the prostitute to stay. They were actually bought out of it to stay there and earn a living. And she would teach them to cook. Was asking her if I could join her one day to which she replied, "Have you stayed in a slum before?'...hmmm...:)
She's been following me to church too and each time I go out with her she feeds me well. Heh. Last week she saw the announcement for the mid-autumn service and asked if i'm interested. My hope for her is that she'll taste and experience the love of God in a deeper way.
Thank you Lord once again. I wouldn't be where I am today meeting the right people at the right place if it hasn't been for you.
