an update.

i just washed my clothes, but because the coin-changing machine broke down i could only wash them but not dry them. wth right, i know. and so my room is full of damp clothes that need to be dried. strewn/hung/draped over every possible surface. i'm upset with a certain someone. )= "i don't feel like talking to anyone" that person says. well i'm not just anyone!

reflecting over the past few hectic weeks that was oweek+my st2 exam+rag got me to find out - to know - that i am tremendously blessed. i'm blessed with the friends that i have, from rag and church and a few others. i'm blessed with gifts, and the opportunities to use them. i'm blessed with grades which are more than mediocre. i'm blessed with a comfortable life.

mercy is god not giving us the bad we deserve
and grace is god giving us the good that we dont.

i know someone more poetic than me can phrase it better. but you get the gist.

grace.

we are saved - by grace. and we're living - in grace. that's what god's been saying to me from yesterday. and i sing 'all i want is you, god' but god sings a song back to me. to all of us. he says that all he wants is us. is me. that blows my mind. really. that he accepts me for who i am. i don't have to be anyone else. just being myself glorifies him. just being myself is good. i am amazed, god. thank you.

the first week of lessons have been great! so fun! until friday when i discovered i misplaced my watch. )= upset. cause my mom got me that for my birthday. and it was a nice watch. but i got a new watch now, thanks to meiling! (=

uni is expensive. i've spend a hundred plus already? all on texts and course packs... phew.

alright time for a nice warm shower. if i think of anything else to blog about, i will.
