It's that time of the year again

I actually didn't blog for a year. That's quite long. How time has passed. A lot of things has happened. And I can't remember most of it.

#1 Enter the new year with new students in the new place.

#2 We went for field trip to the Natinal Museum and HELP University College.

#3 We went for school camp at Broga when I was still sick.

#4 I now belong to Mustard Seed Company.

#5 I asked a fellow lost believer out to encourage and was impressed with what God can do through me.

In the morning the day after my birthday, my collegue told me that my student was not happy. I didn't find anything amiss. However, my collegue was able to convince me that she was hiding her sadness. Come lunch time and I was eating the food that a parent bought for me when my collegue came and told me that that student was crying. I took one last bite and went to check her out. Approaching her, I saw that she was definitely fine. That was when people start to gather to sing me birthday song and brought a chocolate cake to me. It was a planned surprise for me. One of the student stayed up until 5am to bake that cake. For that particular moment, I felt so blessed and could only thank God for that. Things may not seem to be going the way I wanted it to go but there's another side to that.

On the day of my birthday, most of my close friends were not available. I did ask someone to go out with. It was kind of disappointing. However, my cell leader took me out for lunch with his family and gave me a treat. I'm thankful for that. At least someone celebrated for me, on the exact day. It may not be like what I wanted but I'm thankful for my cell leader. Moreover, I unintentially dumped people who were going to eat lunch with me to go out with my cell leader, my bad.

And yeah, I bought myself a new phone. Sony Ericson Xperia Mini Pro. The first phone I bought myself. Thank God for the provision. I just have to learn to be thankful for the blessings in my life and not be coveteous or else it will eat me up.

Another year has passed since I posted something. I have learned a lot. Sometimes I have to be proactive. Instead of waiting for something to happen-which I always do-I should make something happen. Instead of waiting for somebody to do something for me, I should take initiative to do something for people.

I have an impression that this blog is kind of depressing but that is going to change. I believe in a God who so awesome in might and power and yet so loving and kind. Things will work out for the good of me. Thank you, God.
