Happy. :)

Feels like I'm getting to know God again; know Him better I guess; deeper.

It's strange that I'm pretty much on time with my essay schedule - a good thing of course. But strange, because those around me will know that I'm an all-nighter essay-writer, and I'm incredibly thankful for this sense of motivation. "must... not... be complacent!" Studying for an essay is incredibly like pregancy. Or rather, what I think pregancy's like, from TV shows and movies. It gets you incredibly hungry, or greedy, and every now and then you get sudden cravings. I even craved for boiled and salted broccoli one afternoon. Also, there're times when you get inexplicably restless and irritable. I guess after all studying is like gestation; you're pregnant with ideas, and while you feed them with all sorts of things something's actually forming inside - slowly, subtly, sub-consciously. And at the end of gestation, there follows an incredibly constipated and blood-curdling process of birth, before you see the face, arms, legs, body of your newborn baby. And hopefully your baby turns out alright. Yepp. Sounds like mugging to me.

Kudos to Heroes for succesfully hooking me, not just in terms of following the episodes (which is a feat in itself because I have never completed a season, much less a series, of anything) but psychologically, emotionally, mentally... Visual media always had that effect on me, but for some reaon images and scenes from Heroes just keep replaying in my head throughout the day. Strange, but ah, it's enchanting.

Happy. :) it's a quiet, restful kind of joy - I guess after coming home from shiao en's last week and really sorting things in my heart with God the following day, there's a renewed sense of hope, a new pair of spectacles for my myopia, a pair with which to look at the world. and somehow it seems so much brighter...

Spectacles. the lens and screw fell off one of my pairs yesterday. what better excuse to get a new pair!


:) Happy. cherished. Loved.

Isaiah 41:10
Don't you be afraid, for I am with you; don't be dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.
