updates...

how many things can happen in a week?

answer = a lot. especially when everything that happens to you counts.

my emotions as a melancholic does not help me though the thinking side did help.
pretty much graduation was on monday. it was great. the day before, i got the gown from uni and was playing with it with my parents and family friend (aunty) and her family. let her wear the gown, and my mother too. so she graduated also.
i'm really touched by the people that came. i know i invited but its not an invitation thing at the same time. these are people that crossed my life and impacted in some ways, big and small. and i know my 'seniors' and same-age buddies are busy in their respective disciplines and i'm sure they would come if they could.

on the day itself, i went to see an agent. and while talking to him, bla bla bla... bla bla bla bla.... then no problem. you can apply.
what? i can? sure? and right now, there is a chance that i can stay. but i am dependent on my uncle to whether he is able to provide the necessary documents. if he can't provide enough or even one, its a go back home then. i'll be calling home sunday night to confirm things.

and so, monday was 'william's day' hahaha...
it rattles emotions again + confusion. but the week of emotional waves and emotionally cutting off and preparing to leave, it was important. now when i decide to stay, it is not for superficial reasons (though it is important). it is clearer now to see what steps that i should, could and would take in undertaking a career, be it australia or malaysia (or singapore).

one thing that never failed is God's faithfulness. was in melbourne on tuesday. learnt about the lifestyle from a few friends and got to meet up with ee leon. what a blessing! my discipler and counsellor to possible paths in the future. and a book i bought for him last time when he graduated, haha... i need it now.

friday morning i came back and prepared some stuff and straght to OCF. the people and worship blew me away again. it is a happy thing to see familiar faces and happier still to worship together with them.
the message also prompts us to think, why do we believe?

and IELTS test today. i wonder whether i can score 9 out of 9. haha. but i don't think so. my mind went dreaming a bit during the listening test and it was tricky. during the speaking, i kind of panicked in the last 3rd of the session and was starting every sentence with 'and'.
