| Time flies by so fast. One month has already gone! Its February already! Haven't been doing much at all, just been spending a lot of time with my parents. Chinese New Year has been very low-key. Just went back to Ipoh on the 1st day of CNY, spent time with the family, eat, watch tv, play with the kids...
My highlight of January, THE WEDDING!!! Tried my best to help with the wedding. Helped out with the reception together with Alison and Shu Xian. The wedding was just fantastic; great job by the bride and groom and Rachel and Darren. Was so tired after it ended, not that I did much compared to the decorating team though I think past a certain point, they were all running on adrenaline.. haha... Anyway, some pictures
At the church reception.
I love this photo.. All the different colours...
During the dinner. Since the dinner was held outdoors, everyone was saying "pray that it doesn't rain" but when me and ally reached there, it was SO HOT!!! Teaches us to pray specifically ah.. haha... Was starting to sweat all when siting at the reception table..
With the beautiful bride!! Didn't take any photos with the groom unfortunately.

| Because life is not just about me, my feelings, my thoughts, me comparing myself with others, being jealous or anything of that sort. Been thinking about that lately, how easy it is to feel sorry for myself.
"Oh... They just don't like me, they don't care."
"Oh... Why won't they come talk to me?"
"Oh... I bet they are judging me, laughing at me!"
Then you talk to someone about it, asking yourself, "What's wrong with me?". And then they tell you, share with you; their problems are not the same but similar... I could feel lonely by myself and she could feel lonely in a crowd... STUPID DEVIL!!!! Planting all kinds of things in our minds. And then I think, STUPID ME... entertaining those thoughts...
Oh how many times have I broken Your heart?
But still You forgive, if only I ask
CHOICES... I think I know this already, but I think God has been reminding me... Life is about choices... We can choose to do things our way, or do things His way. Every minute of every day when we are awake, we make choices... Do I choose to listen to that little voice telling me what's right from wrong or do I choose to ignore it? Do I choose to put into practice what has been preached or do I choose to write it down and store it somewhere? Do I choose to listen to the voice of evil or choose to believe what God has written in His word?
Lord, I pray for wisdom. Wisdom that I'll make the right choices every minute of every day. I pray for my eyes and ears to be opened to every thing you show me and whisper to me. Lord, I pray that I'll choose to obey. Father, give me the strength and the will to make choices that will draw me nearer to You and not further away from You.
In Jesus name I pray, Amen
That aside, Happy New Year!!!
We will sing sing sing
And make music with the heavens
We will sing sing sing
Grateful that you hear us when we
Shout your praise
Lift high the name of Jesus

| EXAMS are just around the corner... RMIT and Monash students are finishing up or have finished already.. bah!! But, surprisingly.. I am not that stressed out... haha... Just, doing my best and making sure I relax too.. :P
It is amazing though how after studying or doing work for a super long amount of time, dancing for just half an hour can be so stress releasing and just plain GOOD... Shows how important it is to make sure that we all take breaks and just relax and do something we love...
A big shout out to Joe... HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE!!! Missing you loads and can't wait to see you soon!!!
 (from his last birthday.. haha... :P)
And a last reminder to everyone to take breaks once in awhile.. haha :)

| Well, I haven't blogged in an entire month... hehehe... I'm having my last week of Mid Semester holidays now!! I feel quite unproductive besides our PlanetUNI event, 10fifteen!!! That was just amazing! Was really tired and all but it was so much fun and I was so happy! I guess everyone was  It was such a privelige to serve with the PlanetUNI dance team. You are all so special and so fun and so encouraging to be around.
It is so so so amazing to spend time in God's presence!!! Like praying and declaring things over your life and people's lives around you, speaking in tongues, worship.. Doing that just now just really lifted up my spirit because I was feeling a bit down. Its just so amazing knowing that God has a perfect plan, that everything will work out in His time. :)
Was talking to Li recently about experiencing God's love for myself and not just knowing that God loves me... So, any one wants to join me on this journey of asking God to just even reveal His love to us to whole new levels so that it is not just head knowledge but revelation?? (dunno if its making sense but yeah... haha ^.^ ) Any takers?? haha...
SO, I'm all pumped for tomorrow (or actually today)!!! Its going to be a great day!!! :)
Lotsa love,
Su Lin

| 3 services starting tomorrow not to mention album recording!!! Whee... For the 1st time in my life, I locked myself out of my house... sigh... Well, to cut a long story short, had to travel all the way back to the city again to take my brother's keys. Not to mention it was peak hour too. I felt really silly... sigh...
Anyway, today is Xiao Jia's birthday!!!! Emilia planned for us to surprise her. It was awesome!! I baked some cupcakes and Xian zhong baked a super duper yummy tim tam cheese cake... Popped a few poppers and scared the living daylights out of us all, screamed SURPRISE, sang Happy Birthday, take pictures, eat cake, eat cake, eat cake, laze, laze, laze, walked to Melb Central, lepak, then dinner at Oriental Spoon.. haha... The funny thing was everyone shot down every suggestion xiao jia made previously to go beach (too cold), go karaoke (no time), shopping (too far), etc. Plus, she didn't want to tell anyone her birthday so she probably thought everyone forgot but lo and behold, we were all waiting for her behind Emilia's apartment door.. hehehe
Will upload pictures of that when I get them off Ven Xhin...
But for now.. Ally's birthday was a few days ago.. well 20th to be exact...
so pretty right?? haha.. XD
when she was in Melb...
miss you dear!! hugs...
