Yesterday's Feeling...

I'm feeling so tired... I want peace... I need silence... I don't want to talk already... I'm just so tired... I want rest... Yesterday, I went to bed with lots of disappointments, but a little comfort. I thank God I can sleep... :) Tommorrow is another day. Its going to be better... I know what I had conquered, had been conquered. Now, it is just another mountain to conquer & overcome... It's going to be a very challenging year next year... Especially my elder sister is going to be away for one whole year next year... The whole family is only left with me & my parents... Hope I can cope well... My parents are going to less one allowance (which is supposed to be from my elder sis)...
Complicated family matters... Sometimes being a mute is better than anything else... Sigh...
But still, I want to thank God! Thank God for letting me to be so clear in my mind! Thank God for His Word has strengthen me! None of those negative thoughts will get into me!

I'm not perfect & I keep doing things that don't please God... But yet, God still loves me, stays by my side, protects me, guides me.... Oh, I'm just so amazed of His greatness!

It is not easy to do what is right...

My da jie is leaving soon...

OMG! I just found out that my elder sister is going overseas for further studies which is next year February. She can't even stay to see our coming nephew... :(
Jie, I'll miss you... although we don't talk much to each other. Because we're linked by blood, I feel a lot for you. When you get injured, I'll feel the pinced of pain in my heart. When I've upset you, I'll feel sad though I'm the one who cause it. When you reject my care for you in your down times, I feel sad for you as you are isolating yourself in your own world. There're things I want to do for you but I don't know how. You have been so rejecting the past years that I really don't know what I can do for you... I think all I can do now is to keep you in prayer, for safety, for success, for a hope in your life......

Jie, I know you are just trying to be strong. But, sometimes, you should try to relax a bit. Please don't give yourself too much stress. I know you are nice to me. Every time you go overseas for a tour, you'll buy something for me. If your holiday crashes with my birthday, you'll make sure you prepare a present for me or even call back home just to wish me "happy birthday". Jie, I love you a lot! I just want to let you that I love you a lot. I really care for you! What is in the outward is not what it really is. Jie, jia you! No matter where you are, even if it is going to be just one year, I'll remember you. Hope you'll live a happier life... Hope you'll find your happiness soon, very soon.... :)

Love you,
your youngest sister-Pei Yu

Asian Conference 2008

It had been a great event! Though busy serving in choir & had missed almost all the performances, but i still enjoyed very much the whole event! Great!

These are some of the photos taken...

While waiting to go on to the stage... These are the choir behind the scene...

Wow! Without contacting each other, yet we still met! I was surprised & glad! Glad to see you Miho!!! Welcome to Singapore! You are really "kirei"! Hee......

Kelvin "di.e~" & me in the shot! haha... :)

Chris(me), Vivian & Wei ye... Yeah~ :)

The galz in power!!!! Our bea~utiful Asia Conference choir galz!!!!

As all the choir members were just too excited about the conference....
Camera had to be brought out to attract everyone to gather.
This is a so called "flow" among the choir members. Everyone will just gather together when it is time to take photo! hahahaha............ :p

Throughout the 5 days of the conference, we had changed our clothes for almost all the sessions!!! First time in our life that we had changed so many clothes in a conference.
That was a headache! We had been thinking of what to wear for weeks!!! Our attire is to be classy-smarter smart casual, more "up level" one.
That was tiring......................

So, be prepared with all the accurate information.

There is a cruise too!

Falling sick...

My voice started to turn a little hoarse on Sun. I thought my voice was just tired. Then, it continued the next day... & today... Teacher Sheryln said that I'm going to loose my voice soon & it might be today. Oh no! I think I'm having a sore throat plus a little flu. That's not a good news. I must really rest well. I can't fall sick. Asia Conference is just next week. There're things to do...

All I can do now is to drink more water & try to sleep earlier at night.

It is just one week left to Asia Conference!!!!!

• Miho is coming with her church members from Japan!

I'm to bring them to eat (Singapore local food). Firstly, I've to really work on my Japanese language before they come. Place to go, I'm sort of decided already. I've a few places in mind already. But, most probably we only have time for one eating place.

• Many sessions to sing for & X'mas carolling is coming up soon too!

-Need to do more vocal warm up & exercises.

-Must drink more water & rest enough.

-Refrain from fried, oily & other heaty food.

-Practise more on the songs. Memorise the lyrics.

TP Gathering On 27th Oct 2008

Picture above: (Frm left to right, Aileen & me)

It was a very enjoyable karoake session with the few of the TP Harvesters.

Harvesters who went are:

Aileen, Michelle Chang, Na na(me), Henry, Darren Chung (Zheng Yi Jian), Benjamin Ang & Melvin Ye.

Joshua Goh & his girlfriend, Amanda Faith dropped by for a few minutes. Sigh~ It was for the SOT book he wanted to borrow from me... Now, dating to him is more important lah... Hahaha...

I very cherish every gathering that I have with the TP/TRP Harvesters. Because, it is not easy to meet them ever since many of us graduated. It is very precious to be able to meet again. Sometimes, it makes me think back of the happy days we had together during school & Parade of School. I thank God for such good times I had!

***Friends, no matter how busy you are, don't forget to meet up ah! We must always remember to meet up after some time (a month or two the maximum).

The only sisters that day...

Aileen & me

Ah~ Who secretly took this photo while I was singing???

My Busy Mind

There are so many things in my mind... I want to have it all done.
One of those is my homeworks from Japanese class & Vocal class. I realized its so hard to actually sit down everyday to do homework or even to revise. By the time I reach home from work, I'll feel tired and can dose off anytime especially after my lovely dinner... Man... I really need to fight against my flesh! I don't want to do last minute work. I want to be over prepared and have the spirit of excellent when doing. I want to do my best. I may not do it in the past but I want to do it now. What is important is now & future? I don't want to look back. Its not a nice view. So, what I can do now, I'll do; what I can improve, I'll try my best to improve on. I want to be a person who keeps moving on instead of keep on getting stuck at one place. I want to progress.
I want to speak fluently in Japanese (or at least can integrate all the L10 in my mind) soon. I want to show improvements in my vocal to Teacher Sherlyn. I don't want to give the impression of a lazy student with no progress or slow progress. If I want the lessons to be maximized in the potential, I must work hard too... Its two sided. So, I must be a hardworking student.
If that is really what I want, I will surely work very hard for it instead of taking for granted of everything or take it easy. I must be serious about it. Ganbatte Chris!

*Daily discipline is needed. That's like my weakness or "zhi ming shang".
(Especially vocal homework, it need to be done everyday.)

My thoughts...

I need to start saving up money. Or else, my bank account will be forever zero in amount. When in emergency, how? Saving is a good habit that everyone should has.

I need to learn to manage well the amount of money that I have now before more can be given to me. Everything starts small before it becomes bigger.

I need to be more focus on the things I need to do or am doing. I realize that I have been too distracted recently. What is distracting me?

I don't want to fear for there is nothing that I should fear. There's nothing new under the sun. All I need to do is to do my best in everything that I'm put in. So, do the best & excel!

I need to be more organized. I can't stand my sister saying that I'm messy when I'm not. I know where the mess comes from but I find no point arguing. So, just clear the mess even if they're not yours!

I only finally managed to win one game that day. Why??????

Vocal Lesson Yesterday

It was difficult! I was asked to read out the tongue twisters, one after another... It was like never ending. It was not easy for me, especially for my English standard. (Although I got B3 for English during O-Level, but I feel that that doesn't mean much.) Half way through, I could not help laughing at myself. Many times, it caused me tongue tied. Ha ha ha... Didn't know what i was reading already... Moreover, that was the first one-to-one lesson with teacher. (Previously, i attended the lesson with Valerie & Elaine.) A little uncomfortable, but still fine. At least I don't feel that teacher is scary like how Elaine feel... Ha ha ha... :p
I believe after all the training that I'm going through now, my diction will improve. This is one of my targets to achieve for this 3 months. I can do it! Na na can do it! I must work hard for it! :)
Ganbatte!!!!

Great news from SIM!

Yeah! SIM called me just now! That's fast... They are efficent! Man, I've been waiting for this... This make me feel nervous now. The interview is just next week, Wed. Brrrr..... What am I going to do? I really, really hope that I can get in. I want to study! I want to study this course! I want, I want I want..........

I wish to do counselling. I want to touch life with whatever that I can. I want to make a difference in others life. I want to reach out my hand to those who are in need. It is not that I want to be great but really want to help lives.

Do you know that one right or wrong mindset can affects a person's destiny? Therefore, having a healthy mind or being psychologically healthy is very important!
What can I do to help? Can I make an impact?
That's why I want to get into this course. But, of course, there are some of my experiences that have inspired me to be a counsellor... If I am to share this, I think it will be never ending.

But, the Wed interview is interview. To me, it's a formal thing. It makes me feel nervous, just by thinking about it. What should I say on that day? What do I need to prepare? Ah..........~

Shinbai ne~

OMG!!!! I think I have swallowed the "metal" thingy in my mouth!!!! Sharks!!!!! So troubled! Man, tommorrow I have to go to the dental clinic to ask them for help. Hopefully, they can serve me first. Oh my tian! How? Did I swallow it or did I drop it when I rinse my mouth? Man, it was lossen, not stick to the another "metal" piece! Ah............!

Pray pray pray!!!!! Oh God, please help me.........................................
Get it out of my body if I've swallowed it. Pray that the dentist will do a better job next time.... Thank you Abba Father in advance! Amen.

Shinbai ne~ = Worried~

*But, I'm still happily going out???

My Parents went for their "honeymoon" again!

Wow! So sweet......... Its their "honeymoon" again! hahaha.......

Yesterday, my elder sis drove my parents, together with me, to Changi Airport. They were flying to South Africa for a tour. My sis drove real fast. That scared me. It had been so long that I had ever sat in the car she drives. 120km/h? Man, it was so unstable. I was moving from left to right. Perhaps I have used to my friend's driving... (my friend's driving is very smooth & steady.) It was the first time that I sat in a car that I would put on seat belt immediately! OMG!

Funny conversations between my sis & I:
(After we had sent our parents to the airport.)
Elder sis: Shall we buy Mac to eat?
Me: Orh.
Elder sis: Man, its like celebrating our parents flying to overseas! (We eat Mac after sending our parents.) hahaha...
(You are so funny, sis! haha....)

We bought a wonderful Chicken drumstick set meal plus one milkshake + one free packet of milk.
Elder sis: Quick check! Is the milk from China?

After we had drove off...
Elder sis: Ah! We have forgotten to ask whether the milkshake contains milk from China!
(Hahahahaha...........)

The actual reason why my elder sis treated me the meal is.....
She had eaten almost everything on the table for dinner. I was left with a bowl of porridge & a plate of minced meat... Hahahaha......

I fell asleep before dinner. When I woke up, I was shocked to see nothing much for me to eat! Hahaha.... My 2nd sis told me to eat instant noodle together with the remainings... Ah~~~~~~!
Funny sisters!

Man, the whole house left with me & my elder sis again... ... ...
No quarrel & scolding please... Jie, you're so fierce & cold most of the time...

**(Heartz~)Er jie, your tummy is becoming bigger & bigger! Your little boy inside doing fine? I'm so excited about my coming nephew! He kickes you very often? Wow, so naughty little boy... :) I'm (Aunt) looking forward for you to come out into this world...

JB Makan Trip Finally!!!

It was my first time to sit in a car to JB. It was my first time to go further in to JB. It was my first time after putting braces, to eat good food! Finally~

My friends & I had been talking about going to JB to eat, but it just didn't seem to happen until finally yesterday! It was almost postponed again because of the one who was supposed to drive us in, was busy. Phew! Thank God we asked him again... Ha ha ha... Sounds like we pestered him to go... haha... No! He wanted to go in to JB to refuel his car in the first place too. hee... .... :p

The place we went was "Sentosia". (sounds like "Sentosa" huh? he he...) We settled at "101 Seafood Restaurant" to eat our dinner. The food there was great! It was mavellous i could say... Especially the Tom Yam Soup! WaA~~~~~~~~~ yummy!!!! So thick & nice man! Then, there was the "ye cai with Oyster sause", "BBQ Chicken", "fried noodle with kou rou" & "la la". Mmm....... yummy yummy.........! Thinking of them, i'm hungry again! Ah~ I wanna eat those food again next time! The "ye cai" was very sweet, fried noodle was very fragrant & the "kou rou" is waA~, the "la la" is so nicely spiced up! Oh my tiaN! I'm hungry! yum yum..... Drooling~ Thank God for people who know how to enjoy! Especially regarding Makan-ing! haha....

#Makan = Eat, taking in food.

LOL: Miss J actually helped Mr H to write in his birth date in the column of the form which is for the passport expiry date! & Mr H actually forgot to take it out of the passport when going back to S'pore! Hahaha~~~ So funny! He was supposed to throw it away but he had forgotten about it. No wonder the custom officer passed it back to him! hahaha~~~~ Oh Miss J... Whose fault was that?? hahaha.......

*Unfortunately, there was no photo taken because we were just too busy enjoying the food & talking already! hahahaha..... :p

Braces this week!

I had finished the extraction of teeth stage yesterday. This 2nd extraction was more painful than the 1st one. The upper tooth was super stubborn. Sigh~ Thank God for "ma zui yao", or else, I'm sure that I cannot bear the pulling & shaking of the teeth & the pain! Finally, it is all over. I'm moving on to the next stage! Yeah!

This Sun, I'll be putting on the 1st part of the braces. I think it should be the upper one first. Then, the following week, the 2nd part. I'm a little looking forward to it. I wonder how will I look like with the braces. Everybody, lets expect the new look! Ha ha ha...

I think I 've never been so brave before to actually went for teeth extraction. This is an experience. (I was afraid of extraction of teeth the most before this.) Surprisingly, I'm not afraid at all this time. Perhaps, I've grown up. This is just nothing? Ha ha... Perhaps...
(I'm not even afraid to let others see my "bo gei- ness". Ha ha... toothless i mean.)

Asian Conference is Coming!

Hey friends,

Lets prepare ourselves for the Asian Conference 2008. It is just about 2mths away.

No matter it is mentally, spiritually or even physically, we all must prepare well. Do not waste this hard-to-come opportunity!

You can go & do some exercises to tone up the body & mind to be more alert. Read more books like the bible, the inspiration books or the speakers' book & so on & so on.

I remembered that there was once, during a sound check before the service, Pst. Kong actually spoke through the microphone to the guitarist and said: "what happen to you? Asian Conference is just 2 months away. Please go & tone up your body." Wow! Let's go & tone up our body guys! Especially if you are in creative ministry. :)

Please prepare your heart & go with expectancy & be ready to receive whatever that is to come. I think this is a great opportunity for everyone of us to catch something that we can bring into the market place. It is not just spiritually only.

**Everyone of us can make a difference, even if we are as small as a mustard seed!**

Extraction of my 1st 2 teeth

I had two 4th upper & lower teeth of the left side of my mouth extracted last Sunday. The next extraction of 2 more teeth on the right side is this coming Sunday. This is for the braces.

One bad news is that I've 3 or 4 wisdom tooth! (as shown on the X-ray. Can't remember exactly how many. 3 or 4?) The dentist said that they must be extracted out. He suggested to wait for the wisdom tooth to be more visible before he would extract it out for me. In that way, the extraction will be easier. Oh man! Why do we have wisdom tooth? It is useless and doesn't give us wisdom at all! Sigh...

Good news is I'm going to put on my braces very soon after this week's 2nd extraction. Hopefully, everything will be completed by next week. Then, you guys will see my new look huh. ... ... ...

*SIM registration is closing at 30th September 2008. When am I going to register?

The Precious of Life

On Tue, I attended a funeral (Nicole Lai's) with a group of choir members. We went to bless the family & Nicole by building the atmosphere. I felt it was like fulfilling Nicole's last wish as well. I heard from Annabel that Nicole actually wished to serve God in choir together with us but she couldn't due to many reasons. (May be it was her sickness & work.)

She was a popular music person, who was once Sun Yan Zi's vocal teacher and many others.
She wrote song... Hmmm... Other than this, actually I don't know much already. I think I saw her on the newspaper before. Her picture is so familiar.

During the funeral service, Annabel sang Nicole's favorite song- Amazing Grace (the chains are gone) & Nicole's daugher, Carmen sang "Vincent" as items for Nicole. It was extremely touching at that moment especially when Carmen started singing. She sang the whole song with her eyes closed thoughout. We guessed may be she didn't want any distraction, so that she could finish her mum's favorite song without her crying which will break it. She is very strong (I believe) to face all these.

After hearing what Pastor Meng shared about Nicole during the service, made me wonder what will people remember about me when I'm gone. It made me wonder have I live my life fruitful enough. Life is very precious. It isn't meant to waste.

Dental Appointments Coming Up!

More & more dental appointments coming on my way! I just finished the cleaning of my teeth & fixing of my teeth. Next, it is going to be the extraction of my tooth to prepare before I put on the braces. Yupz! You didn't see wrongly. I'm going to put on braces soon. It will be in another few more weeks time. So excited! I want a neat arrangement of my teeth!

Prepare your heart, friends, for my "new look"!
*I can still sing after putting the braces. (For those who are worried about that.) :p

Surprise Performance for Pst.Kong!

The choir had secret practice on last Tue & Wed for the surprise performance for Pst. Kong. It was meant to be a secret before we performed it. We were reminded again & again to keep it to ourselves. Everyone was like "Shhh......" to each other. When CG members & friends asked about, we said it was an extra practice. It was ministry. We tried very hard to keep silence about it. Finally, it was over on Saturday!!!

It was good!!! Very good!!! We could even hear ourselves very clearly from the stage! There was even echo! My gosh! GReat Great Great & Great!!!!! Annabel told us that Pst. Kong was shocked & appreciated very much about the surprise. She also complimented that we did very well! Wow! PTL that we did well & had sung all the parts correctly!

& one more thing. Congratulations to all SOT graduates!!!! There will be more exciting things and adventures ahead. Hope all of you become much much better and stronger compared to before you guys went into SOT! & the near future, even better! God bless!

Dance

I love dancing. If I can, I'll never give up on dance! Its my another source of freedom & confidence! Through dance, I've enjoyed a lot of things that others won't understand. The kind of joy it gives me when I dance.

I've checked the dance courses for contemporary dance but, now it is still not available for me. The time slot doesn't match with my schedule either. & money... ha ha ha... Perhaps, its not time yet...

Word for Today

THINK ON THESE THINGS

For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence & is honorable & seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely & lovable, whatever is kind & winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue & excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on & weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].

Phillipians 4:8

"Think on good things, things that will build us up & not tear us down."

Our thoughts certainly affect our attitudes & moods. Everything the LORD tells us is for our own good. He knows what will make us happy & what will make us miserable. When a persons is full of wrong thoughts he is miserable, & I have learnt from personal experience that when someone is miserable, he usually ends up making others miserable also.

To Those Who Are Concerned About Me

If you are my CG member, you should have known that I went in hospital last Friday(15/08/08).
It was due to the continuous pain caused at the left side of my stomach. (should be the gastric area). It was so pain that I can't even stand straight nor take in any more food. I vomited first time outside the chicken rice store where my CG had gone to for supper after CGM. It was terrible. Then, the vomit stopped. With much effort, I finally crossed the road to hire a cab to the hospital. One of my CG member was with me.

When I reach the hospital -Tan Tock Seng hospital, we went to the Emergency counter to register. Then, we made the payment. & we waited... Man, its really all about waiting in the hospital. But, my pain still hadn't gone. After a while, I think one of the staff there actually advised us to request to see the doctor first after seeing me looking very unwell. So, we "jumped queue".

The nurse started checking my blood pressure, body temperature & etc. We were then told to wait again... While waiting, I vomited again. This time was the whole of the supper I had taken before -half bowl of porridge. It made my tears almost going to flow out of my eyes. But, I told myself that I had to be strong & pulled through it. I can trust God for healing.

My CG member asked the nurse for a plastic, in case I vomited again. Not long after, the nurse put me onto the bed to wait. In my heart was like "finally a bed to lie on"! I felt more comfortable lying down. Then, the nurse pulled my bed here and there to different rooms to see the doctor who gave me the painkiller injection & checkup, to wait, to X-ray room, to wait and wait. Finally after about 2 hrs plus, I was finally "discharged". I went to take my medicine and went home by cab. Throughout, my CG member was there. I really needed that company so much! I didn't want to be alone especially when I was so sick. I really felt touched by the care & concern that my CG member had shown. Even to those who had sms me! Thank you very much guys! I love you all!

Thank God for my CG member, Lejeune! I really appreciated her company throughout very much!

The Result:
I think it is gastric flu that I'm having. The doctor didn't say much. He only told me that there was much gas inside my stomach according to the X-ray. (I've gastric flu history.)

*Latest update: I'm feeling much better now. The medicine works well with my body. It is only a little weak at my gastric. I think I'll take warm or hot drinks and plain food these few days.

^Thank you all those who had been praying for me during the past few days!!! Thank you for your messages that came in!

My thoughts:
I don't know what's going on with me. I have been seeing doctors upon doctors this year! Its a "My Record"! Oh dear~ I hope this is the end. Keep me in prayer if you remember.

Finally Friday!

Great! Finally its Friday again! Today is CGM day & I'm leading P later. Wow! The songs for today are "One" & "KKT". I hope I can lead well. Actually, I feel I'm very well prepared & believed that I can lead very well. I'm confident about that. Its just a little nervousness inside me. Excitement?

Its going to be great later on. CGM will start very well. I'll help to build a very strong atmosphere which leads the people easily into the W. I trust in Him for this to happen. Yeah.

Good News! Tomorrow is the first lesson of my Jap class. I've already set the time with my friend who is going with me, to meet. So excited! I'm looking forward to it. This time round, I must really master Japanese language! I don't mind that one day, I can make use of this value that I've gained, to do interpretation. Ha ha... So coolz...

I've once again made another decision and am doing the preparation. Just one thing to wait, my confirmation from my company. The decision is to go for my further studies at SIM next year January. I believe in increasing one's value. So, there's no such thing as I've studied enough already or I can stop at my diploma. I must at least pursue my degree. & many, many more things that I can go into.

Hmmm.... Perhaps I should take up a driving license... May be in another 2 months time. I need to register first right? No car to drive? Nvm. I can always rent a car whenever I need it. (Especially weekends). "Secret">> My friend said that he is willing to lend me his car to drive when I get my license. Ha ha... Can practise with his car. :) His car is coolz. Lotz of secret weapons inside. Haha... Can't say much... He "biao che" with it! But, one bad thing. He "biao che" when he is feeling frustrated too. That's dangerous! zu zu zu.... Must learn to find other way to release your frustration, not "biao che"! YOur decision man... No such thing as "no choice". You're given freewill from the day you were in your mother's womb!

Appointments

Seems like I've grown old... So many appointments suddenly in these few months. Body checkup appointment, Medical appointment, Heel operation appointment, Eyecare appointment & now, dental appointment! OMG! This is quite scary... What has happened to me?

Yesterday's dental appointment makes me realized that I've not been to the Dental for a very long time. By right, everyone should have a dental checkup and tooth cleaning once every 6 months. But, I didn't. Thank God I don't have much problem with my teeth. People and even the dentist, himself has praised me for my white teeth! Ha ha...

Its a good thing that I had my teeth clean up yesterday and had known about the condition of my teeth. All I need is to do a little filling and apply the tooth mosse on my teeth. I hope my teeth will not be sensitive anymore. Please let that "pain feeling" when I take cold drinks go away!

I have another dental appointment next week to do the filling & to do the mould for my teeth I suppose. I'm preparing to do my braces, to make my teeth properly arranged. Ha ha... Exciting! I don't know how is it going to be like. One thing I know for sure is I need someone to sit outside the dental operation room to wait for me. & that person is my mum! I need her very much! She acts like a mental support to me. I love my mum! Thank you mum for everything...

Lastest Photo

It was a Sun's evening, going out with Joshua, Amanda Faith, Wei ye & Pei Jin.
This was taken my Joshua Goh.

OMG!!! Not nice!

But, the only thing I like is the perfect complexion the photo has shown. Hahaha...
At least this is the latest photo...

What do you guys think?

Amanda Faith said I don't suit this style.

Hmmm... I still figuring out my style... Its time for a real shopping!

[My elder sis said I suit a little boyish kind of style???!!!]

What kind of style do I suit?

Please write me your comment. I need a changeover.

*This jacket was a gift from one best friend of mine.
It is not from Singapore... Hee...

Today is the Day!

Today is the day to see the dentist! Oh man, I don't really like dentist. I don't want all my teeth to be plucked out by the dentist. It is so frightening to even think about it. To me, seeing a dentist = to extract my tooth! Ah........................!

I hope my teeth is alright... Please please don't extract any of my tooth!!!!! Perhaps I'm just having sensitive teeth. That's what causes the pain when I drink cold drinks. I'm thinking... Seriously hope that it is nothing big!

Relax, Adalia, relax... It just a tooth cleaning & check up session with the dentist. Don't think too much... In fact, I should be feeling excited for it! It has been so long that I ever see a dentist. Hee... Oh gosh... Why it is always this moment that I feel I should have taken better care for my teeth.... He he he... So, what will the outcome be...? I want to know.

Ok, ok... Only one thing that is exciting... I'm going to consult the doctor on putting braces! Yeah! After a long, long...........................................................consideration........
Ah!!!!! Just do it lah! Think so much for what??!!!!
Ya, that's the conclusion. :)
Hahahahaha......... Funny me! :p

Changes coming coolz...soon!

Finally, I've decided to go & do my braces. I want to my teeth to be neat & no more "tiger tooth"!
I've made my appointment on this Wed to consult the dentist first. I'll do tooth cleaning and checkup as well. I don't know why recently, when i take cold drinks, my bottom teeth will feel the pain going through inside. Perhaps I've sensitive teeth....

I hope I can get used to the braces in a very short time. So that, I can still continue to sing. I think during that period, I can't go for my vocal class. I'm so sorry my dear friends who are attending with me... Forgive me please?

Pai seh lah...

My Vocal Lesson 1

Yesterday was my 1st lesson with Teacher Sheryln together with 2 other choir friends, Val & Elaine. Before going to her house, we were a little afraid that she will be fierce as she looks strict.
But, end up that is not the case. In fact, she is very funny. The small reactions when she thought she had herself locked out of the house show it all. The way how she teach is very visual. I think she makes the lesson very interesting. I look forward for the next lesson. I must admit she is good. Why do i not like her previously? She is also a very humble woman. She teaches with her heart, without any means of despising. There are many things I can see in her that I can learn from. She is also a very mature spiritual woman. There are things that she thinks that can shock you off! Just the 1st lesson, i'm already "wow"! This is not a simple woman. Ha ha...

Revelation! I'm a Mezzo, in between Alto & Soprano! Great! I never think I sing low notes only. In fact, I always think i can hit higer notes! I want to be the next Annabelle or Alison who can sings very well. Or be someone who can sing many different parts... Sofian? Ha ha...

Ooo... I've homework! I've not have homework since last year SOT... Coolz... I'll do my best in practising whatever I'm being taught of. Homework? No problem!

& I sing~ sing~ing~
I love You so~
la la la~

*Yeah! I've bought Utada Hikaru "Heart Station" album!!!!! Very coolz...

Utada Hikaru Rocks!!!!!

Oh dear oh dear!!!!!!! Its Utada Hikaru! Her new album is out in Singapore! Men, its driving me crazy...... I've heard all the songs in the album at HMV. I can tell you this is super good!!!!!! Its surely different from her past albums. A very refreshing & it rocks music. The melody is of many different styles. You will just enjoy yourself just by sitting down on a sofa & listen to it. It have been so long i ever hear her music. This album, i must add it to my collection!!!!!! Ah.............!
She is such an inspire to me! (that music can be so GOOD!) Almost all the songs or in fact all, she did it herself. She is definitely talented. I wonder where she gets her inspirations from. I wanna be like her who can write many beautiful songs & make unique & stylist melody. Her music never disappoint me. It keeps on changing and changing.. Breakthroughs upon breakthroughs. Hope she can successfully hit the US chart with flying colors. I believe not only asians will like her music, the other places will like it very much too.
Utada Hikaru, ganbette ne!!!!!!
She is really full of her style. Her music brings her out very much!
I hope to keep on listening to her music... for more surprises in her music! She is terrific!!!!!

Rejuvenate yourself!

Recently, I am browsing at the websites of MTM skincare and Bioskin. I think these 2 skincare co. not bad. I want to try out.

MTM skincare focus more on Products while Bioskin is all-rounded & focus on Treatments. So, in short, if you want to buy facial products, you go MTM; if you want to do treatments, you go Bioskin. That's my own conclusion after browsing through the websites. I think i should go down to the shop to take a look and enquire more information. I want to know what exactly do i need. :)

I'm so excited about what kind of services they provide. It makes me feel like pampering myself. I want to be more beautiful by learning how to better take care of my own skin. Though many people compliment that my complexion is very good, I feel that the more that i should take care and maintain it. Nothing should be taken for granted. Moreover, it is a gift from heaven.

*I realize that now i need more skin or facial products. Wow!

My Plans

I'm planning to go for further studies in degree. Most probably going to be at SIM. But, it is not going to be now as the course fee is quite a lot. I'll save up some money first, so as not to make myself too tight.

Meanwhile, before that, i'll be taking vocal class with Sheryln and Jap class. That has always been what i want to do. Finally! The vocal class is going to start this coming Sun. I'm so excited. I wonder how is it going to be like. I'm looking forward to improve my singing skills. I don't wanna hurt or strain my vocal chord anymore. I want to maximise the way that i can sing. I want to hear how I'm going to sound like when i sing in the right way and maximumly. How far can i go? What is the highest or lowest note i can hit? How i can find the harmony parts? How my ears can become more sensitive that before? In addition, if my finance allows, i hope i can take up keyboard lesson as well. That will help even more.

For Jap class, I'm going with one of my best friend. It is going to start on 16th Aug 2008. This time, i'm going to learn till the Advance. I want to speak and write well in Jap. One day, I can just go to Japan to visit Miho and the rest and communicate in Jap! Wow... That's my aim. How long is it going to take? To complete up to Advance, needs about 5yrs. Do I really need to wait for 5yrs? May be not. At Intermediate, I should be able to speak fluently. This is going to be a bonus to my resume`. Great!

*For dreams to come true, you've to believe and actions must be done!
Faith + Work = Dreams Alive!

After Sun...

I guess i was drained off in the spirit a little yesterday. Despite the fact that i only help to "take care" of one person, i felt more tired than usual. I hope she is fine now.

Sometimes, there're things that we, ourselves have to learn to take care or make the decision. Others just can't help much. If this fact is not being recognized, no matter how hard someone else try to help, it'll come to no effect.

The toughest battle in life is actually in the battlefield of our mind. The mind is like a main system of our whole body. Once it is shut down, there's nothing you can do about it. Therefore, it is important to take good care of our "mind" daily. Just like we need to clean ourselves everyday, we need to "clean" our mind everyday. Whatever anger, sadness or disappointments, they need to be dealed with immediately on the very day! We should never try to hide or avoid it. It will not help! Even if that emotion or situation still grabs onto you, you should not just put it aside and don't care about it. You still need to press on dealing with it! That's your enemy whom will destroy you! How can you let it go so easily?! You must fight till you defeat it!

We need to guide our mind and heart, or it will just cling on to you forever and affect the rest of your life. We deserve to live better right?
*Don't even think about revenge! Revenge kills. Fight your enemy first! (Enemy: things that hold on to you that affect your mind and emotions. -even your life. Not talking about any human-being here.)
