:: updates ::

Yes, i've gotten lazy.

#1. I had an awesome birthday. Thank you, everyone, for just being awesome people who MADE my birthday awesome. From the "present for every year", to Smiggles, to chocolates that will last me months, to the java chip, to the impromptu curry-fish-head dinner, to the oversea phone calls, to the Nero Vivo's dinner, it's been amazing. You guys know who you are. Thank you :)

#2. I got the internship at GE! Praise God! :) Will write more about this when i have more time.

#3. I handed up a really poor excuse for an assignment on Monday. It'll be by God's grace if i passed it. Almost regret for handing it in on time :S

#4. I've undertaken tasks to last me all the way till Feb 2008. How brilliant. Lols :)

#5. Semester is ending in less than a month. So *not* prepared for finals.

#6. I've got this itch in my heart. The more i scratch it, the more annoyed/confused i get. I'm growing indifferent.

#7. I played lanterns this year. In SS15 playground. My kampung Subang friends got to meet my kampung ACTS friends.

#8. I joined Facebook. 'Nuff said.

#9. Sookie and Leen says i'm fat. The weighing machine says i've lost weight.

#10. I hate feeling indifferent. I hate being treated indifferently too. I think i'll go watch a movie. Or read a book. Escapism is good.


Itch. Itch. Itch.

I miss my "kaki-gatal" gang. *sad face*

My presentation was the pits but i received pretty good feedback! Even if i don't get the internship aka a place in the Graduate Leader's Program (GLP), it was a great experience to take home :)

Blessed week, everyone!

:: where's your string ::

It's a bee-you-ti-ful morning. May not be as sunny as i would've liked it. But it's good enuf ;) Am all snugged up in the library, going to start studying for my financial management mid-semester test. Not looking forward to it but that doesn't mean i have to mope and rant about how Monash is evil. Heehheehhee. That'll only drive people away no? Life's good. And i feel fuzzy. God loves me. So....*sings with Michael Buble*

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life - I'm in love

I've got a song that I sing
And I can make the rain go
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, cant you see - I'm in love

Life's a wonderful thing
As long as I've got that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let you go

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on the rainbow
I've got that string around my finger
Oh, What a world, what a life - I'm in love

Life's a wonderful thing
As long as I hold the string
I'd be a crazy so-and-so
If I should ever let her go

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
I got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life
Oh, what a world, what life
What a world, what life, cause I'm in love
(He's in love, he's in love)
I'm in love
(Got the world on a string)
And what a wonderful thing
(Alright)
When you get the world on a string
(Uh huh)

*grin* Have a great week ahead, everyone! :)

:: a star-life ::

I am destined to live a life in view of God's perspective. But today, i found out how scared i really am to see things from His view.

I've heard Ps Judah's messages from Generation Church, Seattle so many times. But this is the first time he made me cry. If you only knew what i've heard, you'd know why i cried. "Point of View" is what you should be listening to.

It's true. Somewhere in my heart, i think just like him. I don't want to be like Abram complaining about how God didn't give him a son. But i want to be the Abram that God took outside of his tent and "look up to the heavens and count the stars". (Genesis 15:1-5) I want to truly know what it means to look at stars, each one representing a life.

I'm in CampusCity and Acts Church for a reason. And i think, my perspective just changed. I don't know how. I don't know if i even dare to. But i sit and pray, that God, you show me how things are more than just what it seems. Lord, i thank You for what You've done. But there's so much more. Help me to look now, Lord.

I want out of my tent too.

:: passing the time ::

Am sitting in the library, level 3, next to my big-big windows again. Group mates have left to their respective classes and lunch appointments, so i'm left with some "me-time". Bored and sleepy lah.

Can't wait to have my presentation over and done with. Once it's over, i've got my AFW2631 mid-sem test to study for, a 2500-word MGW2430 report to write, and another 2500-word AFW3651 report that just had to join in the fun! Whoop-dee-doo. Monash is sick, i tell you. I can't wait till the 1st of October for some time to *breathe*. Then again, 2 weeks after that, i'll be having finals. Oh gawd.

*hyperventilates*

I need to do well. I need to.

*************************************************

Dear Shi Wei,

Just wanted to wish you a very happy birthday :) It's been years, babe. And as much as i get annoyed, irritated and just drained by you sometimes, i'm still very fond of you. You're still the little boy i call my best boy buddy. And the one i know is there when i need you :) This year's summer holidays might not have been the best for you and i know i didn't make that much effort to spend time with you due to my own busy-ness, but i have NOT forgotten your birthday :) Don't think i ever will. Lols. We September babies stick together, yes? ;)

I hope you have a great one. Don't be notty and don't do anything i wouldn't! ;) May you have an awesome 20th birthday. Cheer up and enjoy yourself ok!

Have a java chip on me. *hug*

Love, ellie.

:: high on coffee ::

Yeps, it's that time of the semester again. Been telling everyone how i'm *so* not looking forward to September. It's a horrible school month. And you guys know i don't drink coffee. Not much anyways. And what it does to me when i do.

Which is why i'm still wide awake on a school night at *this* time. Time : 2.00am. Wooot! I still feel rather hyper. Lols. And i plan to head to school early to do my essay too. Heehee.

Got so many things due soon that it's scary. Am gonna type out what i have to do as a HUGE reminder :D

#1. AFW3651 mid-sem test this Wednesday.
#2. MGW2430 Assignment 1 due Friday.
#3. MW2430 Presentation next Monday.
#4. AFW2631 mid-sem test next Friday.

Not to mention, the tutorials and mini-homework that we have to do in between.

It's gonna be an exciting two weeks! :D It's a good time to be praying and fasting. Hehehehhee.

Run, Ellie, run! Dumdeedum.

P/S : Check this out. It's so good, i laughed till i cried. So typically malaysian lah. You have to watch ALL the adverts, by the way. You won't regret it! I promise :D

It's SEPTEMBER already. BRING IT ON!!!
