Anyway, I have a great time with my darlings on Friday. Even though I wasn’t feeling well in the morning, still I managed to get myself down to Vivo City to meet up with them. I am just so happy and excited dwelling in their presence. It was in them that I realized that I have overcome situations that I thought I couldn’t. They saw the depressed, unjust, unfairly treated girl who was often sad, but now they saw the slim-down, cheerful me. I am glad that I am getting so well. We were out together for almost the whole day and I simply just enjoyed the day. It was in them, I learnt to love, to care, to share and to be who I want to be.
Where is HuiMing?
You gals rock.
Saturday, 15th December 2007, is the day where I have my braces on! I woke up at 8plus that very morning, feeling excited yet scared. I took a little bit of breakfast but because I have no appetite, I didn’t eat much. I walked over to the dental clinic, the feelings in my heart was unspeakable. Throughout the treatment where the Orthodontist put the brackets, I felt NO pain at all. I thought it will just be fine on me, but not when I got home. The pain was terrible. I can’t close my mouth, I can’t bite, and all that I could do was just to drink water. I tried so hard to eat, but all I did was to swallow. It was a bad experience because it made my throat felt as if it was choked by all the food. I just didn’t want to do anything, than to rest and forget all about the pain. No pain, No gain. God is teaching me so much more about values and beauty that He is giving me.
20 minutes before braces.
I am smiling with braces on.
Emo-ing; is painful. It is just another Sunday morning. Church was ok. I had lunch with some pals whom I have not been closed with for a while. I really miss them so badly and especially so, the time and the bond that was built then. I am glad that things did change, so I could grow up and moved on in life. I thank God for giving me that strength to stand up and open up once again, not forgetting the chance to love and to face problems in a different view! I watched the show Ugly Duckling and me in Tomsum’s house. This is a movie that I would strongly encouraged people to watch, though it is not out in the theater yet. Many a time in life, we make use of people around us, for their good or bad, as long as it benefits us, it is good for us, right? Then so, how many a time have you spared a thought of those people whom you had made used of? It just kept me thinking.
In that show, it allows me to see the wonders of God too. So often, we complaint about all the bad things that happened in our life and forgo why did God allow such steps to be taken. We complaint about anything under the sun, and when God tells you so, we chose to walk our own way still. We all knew the story of Ugly Duckling, don’t we? They grew up ugly, good for nothing! Such negative thoughts have to be thrown to them but they never give up, they persevere, look at the swans you see, they were once the ugly ducklings that no one likes. It reminds me of the story of the Cocoon to the Butterfly. It shows me the impossible that God made possible. I used to think I was so ugly and good for nothing, but now when God told me that He will change me. I can’t say I am a pretty babe today, but then again I believe I am great in certain angels. God is good to all, if only you CHOOSE to believe He is.
Emmie Tan is back from New Zealand. She is really a babe and it is so good to see her after 9months? We had dinner together and also a time of fellowship. I really miss those times when I am so in touched with them and I pray that with God’s strength, more of such chances will be given.
Two quotes to leave with all of you:
Joy is looking and comprehending the nature’s most beautiful gift, that’s you.
Loving oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.
Love,
