all but for a brief moment
First of all, a HUGE thank you to Angel who redid my blog while I was in camp. It's refreshing isn't it?
Let me just update bout myself.
Been up and down lately. Camp. Let's talk about camp. The downside is that my workload has been so busy lately, and it's hard to find joy doing work you don't enjoy doing, and you didn't choose to do. Don't get me wrong, i love my country, but the people running it need a lot more prayer. The brightside however, is that i have about 5 more months before i ORD!, which if i may even say so, praise God for! I'll be honest, i hate that place! Oh well, just endure.
Can't believe i haven't blogged since my KL trip! So much has been happening, like how i went to catch Singapore Idol at Caldecott Hill, or how my family had a mega-celebration celebrating all our birthdays in one day at a restaurant with a $500 bill and the plate the size of a car wheel but serving size of an eraser, or how i have been hanging out with friends having fun at the KTV, or how we went to watch Baybeats at the Esplanade, and etc etc etc...
POINT IS... i've not been in the best shape recently, be it healthwise or in my spiritual life. Been out late these days, and i just feel so tired after a long day of work and play. It's tough, especially on some days you don't see your family at all. Aaron's gone back to Canberra and Andrew's soon to go. I'm gonna be lonely again.
I don't know why sometimes i feel down, but i just do. I'm trying to pick my life back up after one huge fall, but i know it's not gonna be easy. I gotta thank Angel for encouraging me when i was down. She brought me to the lyrics of the song "Praise You in this Storm" by Casting Crowns, ironically cos i sent the song to her. But the song says...
I was sure by now God you would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
that it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear your whisper through the rain,
I'm with you
and as your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.
Chorus:
And i'll praise you in this storm
and i will lift my hands
that you are who you are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
you hold in your hand
you never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise you in this storm
I remember when I stumbled in the wind
you heard my cry you raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find you
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear you whisper through the rain
I'm with you
and as your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away
I lift my eyes unto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes unto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
So i guess, there is a God afterall huh? Lord, i know You're there, and i know that while i'm here ranting about how much my life is down the longkang, YOU have a bigger more enriching masterplan for my life, my architect, my designer. Perhaps you could be my dietician or my fashion consultant too? I will now always trust Your decisions for my life.
Thank You Lord...

INVASION.
guest blogger:
angelwell yeahh. jon hasnt update for one whole month. so im here to well. keep this place alive.
army banned blogger so he cant blog since he is like. in there more than half the time. sad somehow, but everyone's happy for him that he's getting out in like. 5 months. (woah thats fast.)
i still could remember the time when mochaholic was first born and we were both starting poly. and then this that that this happened. and i got kicked out. *pouts. fine it was a good thing somewhat. cos he had his space to blog all he wants. and you can the change of his blogging style. from word diarrhoea to nice refined pieces, and now to photologs. (: yayy jon im prouda you.
i guess these are the stuffs that changes with time, but im glad there are stuffs that dont change with time. stuffs like friendships, plus minus distance and time apart. and things money cant buy. things like. time spent together, time yakking on the phone together, the bond between. the words that doesnt need to be spoken. the smiles that say a thousand words.
ayyeee. hahaa. yes i love you dear brother.
and no im not here to start a little love fest. (they hardly follow through anyway) but im here to say. i dont know whether you'll like this new layout. its awfully minimalistic. (that seems to be all im doing these days anyway. take any the clutter man !) but i like that picture of that guy at the front. (: like you when you play the guitar. lol.
ayee. since i didnt get you a bday present. this is it.
i know lah. cheapolata. but okayy.
happy 20th and nearly 1 month birthday !
now start blogging.
everyone else. please continue bugging him. haha.
and mochaholic is officially recruiting guest bloggers.
AIIGHTS. ciao.
