issues of the health

title inspired by our last official system in imu bj. *sigh* wave of nostalgia (as i write this, there's a HOUSEFLY buzzing around in my room! -_-" thks for accompanying me)

i can't believe my 2.5 yrs here in bukit jalil is gonna end! but i must say, it has been the BEST time of my life.

it's here that i learn, how amazing GOD is, of His grace that has always been more than enough for me. and I just can't stop thanking Him for that. For also showing me the importance of prayer. I'll truly miss prayer meetings, especially those where we gather outside the exam hall 15 minutes before it starts;

how i've matured and become braver through the seasons, more outspoken (& louder - ouch) than i used to be;

it is here that i learn how to be independent, and solve problems that i used to always push away, to learn how to share instead of bottling up everything;

where i learn how to serve, and lead in the way that He wants me to; God has really moulded me through the church, life group and CF. I never imagined I would be the person I am today if not for His grace. I'm not perfect, but I know He's brought me a long way. To my 'mentors' Ps Ong, Ps Chee Keng, Joanna, Eu Pui, Sarah Ong, Jill, Eric, Grace.. maybe not all have directly discipled me, but i'm inspired by what you've done and what you're doing!

where i meet true friends, supportive friends and prayer partners that encouraged me to go on this journey;

-Li Yeen, thanks for always being the hee-hee-haa-haa friend, one that i can complain and share with, talking abt almost everything under the sun, shopping!! n of course our same allegiance to MNG and ZARA. i honour you.. although u always poke me in the cheek, i forgive u :P haha..

-to the INs, Lay In - Go Go Girl! Se Yin - Our No. 1 MNG informer, Evelyn - the sophisticated, thank you for making my life in IMU a memorable journey. i'll never forget the times we've spent, whether in uni or otherwise (and the ss picture taking sessions)

-housemates!! i love you B-02-4.. and whatever memories we have of cooking together).

-To Wen Hao, for being a good friend to Chris and myself.. ur faith has always been an encouragement to me. sitting with you for lectures in sem5 has been great!

-To Jay my lame kaki. continue your lame-ness in Belfast as I attempt to continue mine in Adelaide. But on a more serious note, thks for being the friend you are, i enjoy all the dancing times! dance for His glory!

-sze liang, YOU the man. Sorry i'm always a parasite to you, eating from ur egg tarts, to tong yun.. and the list goes on. You're a blessing dude! Continue to be one in Otago. (remember pot luck means u have to bring FOOD yeah!! hehe)

-Joanne! Desmond! Minoo! Wilfred! The prayer pillars. thank u for always reminding me of the power of prayer. Lives are changed because of your prayers!

-Lim Eu (Step-hen), Ding, for ur non-stop teasing, but really fun to have you guys around!! i'll remember KKB!!!!

-Sem 2s Jeremy, Lieo Jin & Noris, all HIGH Is (Influential), use it for His glory yeah? ;) there's never a dull moment with you guys arnd.

-and not forgetting, kind seniors Jack & James who have been such great friends!! :D

where i meet my baby darling Chris, my companion and confidante; I LOVE YOU!! thank you for listening, for bearing with me, for sharing life with me. Sorry for making you worry all the time! Hehe.. But I appreciate that, because I know you care! I alaways thought it's amazing how God put 2 people who never considered the medical profession, to end up in the same place, AND loving it. It's also amazing how God has brought us together and guide our paths.. I pray for a deeper relationship with God and with you as we embark on our new journey to Adelaide.

Emma my other darling, i'll miss ur knee-knocking whenever i'm in line in the cafeteria. I'm glad we got closer.. :) Remember Romans 8:28 yeah. Turn Newcastle upside down (or downside up) for Jesus :D

where i learn how to play darts and made good buddies through this sport. Deva, you rock!! thks for being such a great friend, CSU partner, darts partner and occasional CS partner.. and of course, ah Glen, Chuen, Suet May, Steph, Chun Peng, Wen Hao, Hau Chun, Hendrick, Debbie.. the good ol' days!! I'm thinking of getting a dart board in adelaide already! hehe..

where we formed the makan club, although i think it needs some kind of resuscitation now, but our makan trips are THE BEST!!!! I will miss it soooooo much!!!! Chuen are we still going international? cos we have 4 of us in adelaide already :P

to those going to adelaide, i look forward to building meaningful and strong friendships with you :)

lastly, for teaching me the value and importance of a family, i'm still learning.. there's a lot to! but I know you'll help me :) I LOVE YOU PAPA, MUMMY, CHRISTOPHER,
NEUMAN, AH MA, POR POR, and my uncles & aunties, cousins, niece & nephew.

M2/04 the best batch ever.. history makers!!! muakZz love u all..
too many to acknowledge, but I just want you all to know that, you've impacted my life in many many ways.. and I thank you for that! if i didn't mention your name it doesn't mean that u're not important k..

this being my last week of classes, it ended VERY well. God definitely saw to every detail and made sure everything ran smoothly. O me of little faith, but guess what? God is faithful even when we're faithless. Christmas Week, Friday Night. For those who were involved, you'd understand what i'm talking about.

-IMU Christmas Celebration went so so well, the audi was filled, the play went so so so smoothly, compared to the day before! (Jeremy and gang.. well done! you have put in late nights to make it a success, God honours it),

-and the Christmas fun fair to raise funds for St Jerome's Kids. we made > RM 6000!!!! PRAISE THE LORD.. Just our chicken pie stall alone, made 900+ (which actually doesn't really tally with our expected profit, so God it HAS got to be YOU!!) I guess me, ivy & sarah's chicken-pie-song-to-th-jingle-bell-tune works too :P and the kids enjoyed themselves soo much, everyone enjoyed themselves! IMU has a different Christmas this time around. We actually were very bold this time, putting up the story of Christmas, putting up facts about Jesus.. and transforming the whole uni with Christmas decor. God's favour was so evident!!

-and lastly, the sem1s performance on friday night which was FANTABULOUS!! kudos Sem 1s.. the efforts put in has definitely paid off.. talented!! God truly answers prayers!! :)

and of course, issues of the health (health issues), haha.. i'll just say, it was an OK paper. but u know what? it doesn't really matter.. cos I have God with me. Emmanuel! :D
