Twodays...--...Passessofast
haha, got this from the BabyBlues comics homepage. cool isn't it? one day I'll try creating a comic of my own. and it'll be Gracee Cools! haha=)
Anyway, school has been good. Tkd has been fun. Life has been fulfilling. Last Saturday, as I went for the Young Adult Service, Paul Goulet from Las Vegas came with his team to preach on a powerful word-Serving the Lord, Moving from Glory to Glory. cool! At the altar callings, Brian began to play the prophetic song "No Limits", which was so timely. Though I couldn't really hear the words he sang, I can just feel the fire in the song! Got the chords from Lydia, and started jamming the song on my guitar. Haha..
C Em C Em F Em F Am7 G/B C
No Limits, No boundaries, Overtaking, come surround me. Transform, make me whole, anew, in God's first destiny.
The song is a ongoing piece, which never ends. Hope I got the lyrics right. Haha..

!!Today's Taekwondo Grading!!
aHHHHHHH.... Today's Taekwondo Grading. Early in the morning, waking up the lazy bones of mine at 6.30am. Took my breakfast, got down early to get to Kovan MRT by 8.30am. I was feeling really groggy on the train, and decided to take a siesta on the journey. As the train approaches Outram Park, this guy who sat down at my right suddenly went to deep sleep, till he keeps tilting his head to my right shoulder. As I was rather irritated by it, as I was awoken by him. But nothing happened till the problem persisted. He almost landed into my arms; and of natural reflex, my right arm came up and gave him a tkd block, which pushed all the way till the other side and of coz woke him up. As he woke up, he eyes began to glance to the people sitting in front of him to check if they were looking at him. But all I gave him was a glare and I went back to sleep, a better one of coz, as he began to behave himself..not leaning any closer anymore. Haha.. Luckily I didn't hit his head, which I almost did. Anyway, even if he really was sleepin and happened to lean on me by accident, I'm not to allow him to land up on me. Girl's have all freedom to use their defensive methods. Haha..
Well, today's grading passed really fast. But I tried my best, though I was really nervous then. I know I'll pass for sure, however, I double is hard to predict. Anyway..I'll trust God.
"All things work together for good, to those who love God."

Insomnia's Coming Back (-_-"')
These days have been a torture for me. Just can't seem to fall asleep. Hence, I went online till really late at night, and went to soak myself into my pile of notes and hoping all these will eventually make me tired and groggy. Nope, wrong thinking. The more active you are during the night, doing stuff actively like studying, the more you won't be able to fall asleep. Hence, I went to the bed, telling Him to give me sleep and I rested. I started reflecting the whole day's of work, and what's gonna consume me again the next day. I'm so glad the next day's cell! Ra-ra. Hence, I began to foresee the excitment of it. Gradually, I fell asleep. Hehe..
Recently so so many of my good friends left for their studies overseas. I'm glad for them, but sad for the partings we had to endure. However, I'm sure He has a purpose for all of us. He who withstands us forever!!
I guess yyouu wouldn't know how I've been feeling about yyouu. And it's really heart-aching to know that yyouu are either not ready or yyouu are just a fairy-tale. I've turned my focuz onto preparing myself to be the right partner, instead of looking for the right partner. Cuz there can never be a right partner for sure. It's how we are gonna come in acceptance of all.
2 things: 1) Heart to God, Hand to Man. 2) I'll love my family and friends more than they do.

7.19.1.3.5 + 12.5.19.15.25 NOT EQUAL 20.15.7.5.20.8.5.18
It's funny when you find yourself looking from the outside,
I'm standing here but all I want is to be over there.
Why did I let myself believe, miracles could happen?
Now all I have is to pretend that I don't really care.
I thought you were my marry-tale, and dream when I'm not sleeping.
I wish upon a star, is coming true.
But everybody else could tell that I confused my feelings with the truth.
When there was me and you.
I thought I knew the melody, that I heard you singing.
And when you smiled it made me feel like I could sing along.
But then you waved and changed the words, now my heart is empty.
I'm only left with used-to-be(s), and once-upon-a-song.
Now I know you're just a fairy-tale, and dreams were meant for sleeping.
And wishes on a star just don't come true.
Coz now even I can tell that I confused my feelings with the truth.
Because I liked the view.
When there was me and you,
I can't believe that I could be so vined;
It's like you'll hold it, when I was falling
Until the final.
Because I like the view,
I thought you found it too
When there was me and you.

...--...As We Go On...--...
It's been 3months since I entered the Taekwondo Club in SIM. I'm having fun there, as well as lots of learning was imparted into Grace! Not only in terms of skills, but also in discipline, and motivation. Now that's past 3months, my yellow belt grading is up on Sunday! I'm rather nervous, but no doubt, I'm excited for it as well.
Life in SIM has been really a blessing. Friendship has been a signficant reality. And of course, I'm enjoying studying in the campus.
Today, as I was reading His Word, this question came upon me:
In times of Afflictions, how will you react?
Seriously, I've not reacted in a way to show that I can trust in Him the Jehovah Jireh, Whom will provide for all my needs to more than abundance. It's definitely not for me to decide and figure out how things will work out, but it's only for me to continue trusting Him. My spirit-enabled cheerfulness(just like I am in the past) will be a best testimony to all. I gotta constantly remind myself that I shouldn't act to stumble, but act to build.
Let the world see a New Grace of His blessings and assurance. Amen!

I'm really down these days, in the midst of financial burdens. But God has reminded that He'll provide. It's not for me to figure out how things will work out, but it's for me to Trust in Him. I'm gonna declare His promises everyday, and proclaim His truth. I believe He will bring breakthroughs into my family, with our relentless belief. As we continue to carry this contagious faith everywhere we go, many will be blessed! Amen!!
I went through the follow-up, which turned up to be so enjoyable. I was reminded that we should walk in His victories even in times of our trials. To grow, to learn. Heart to God, Hand to Man.
I gotta be wise in my finances. I promise Him. However, I'm still thinking if I should withdraw from Taekwondo Club so as to lower the monthly expenses. I may not be able to live the lives of the others, and they may not be able to live a life of mine. I'll pray about it. God will take control. But decisions are mine eventually. We'll see.

140906-Report
Hmm, i feel like i'm kinda lost nowadays. Lost in my purpose of doing things i do everyday. I was glad that I was given the opportunity to serve on Vision Rally weekend. Initially, I felt fatigued and I couldn't give my all on stage. I felt like suddenly everything was so mandane, it's as if serving became a routine. And I knew this didn't come from Him and it should not remain in me. I began to pray during the break we had in between the 2services, to rebuke the spirit of fatigueness. At the 2nd service, I found the joy in Him renewed and refreshed. I can now worship Him with my all. Grace is back!!
I was so glad school's break has ended and i'm now back in school; enjoying lessons and taekwondo. haha.. Till today, Thursday 14th Sept, where I received a sms from DEW Min. I thought it was over, and my case was closed. I really don't feel like going down for the follow-up. The reason why I'm feeling this way is because I seriously feel there's Nothing wrong with me. I wonder what do they wanna deal with at the session today. I dread going for it. But I knew that the DEW volunteers sacrifice time specially for us. I'm going no doubt, but I'm reluctantly doing so, cuz i hate such sessions. I'm praying that I'll be fine.
