Trust Me

The only time I get to post is during my lunch break at work. So really, I post whenever I want! [: I was meant to put up videos a long time ago of my new Bible study & Roy & Daisy's engagement, but I never got the chance, so I'll do that now. If a picture speaks a thousand words then videos must make for ten thousands.


The beautiful engagement of Roy & Daisy. Slightly getting used to the fact that their gonna be married. El & I were nervous for the dance but it blessed the couple at the end, so praise God. Party at the wedding soon! Oh and partied so hard at the engagement that my head was throbbing, feet were so sore, etc. Didn't get off the dance floor 'till the music stopped! [:


So that's nearly all of my new Bible study. Such a transition for me to lead such young boys since my original boys were 3 years their senior. We wrote our time capsules a couple of weeks ago (a letter where you write something and it gets given back to you in a number of years), and I couldn't help it, I wanted to read them when I got home. (It wasn't totally confidential, I mean to say that no one asked me "not" to read their letters) So a time capsule contains your deepest desires and dreams, who you are in the time you write it in so upon receiving it, you would've noticed your growth. So I'll be holding these letters until they graduate from their HSC, which is in 6 years. Haha, what an adventure.

I instructed them all to write "dear your-name" and off they went. I'm not going to go into too much detail since it's their life on paper, but I will post here one thing to keep me humble before God & remind me why I have counted the cost to be a leader, a Destiny Shaper. There I was home after Bible study when I started reading through the letters, and I giggled and awed my way through letter by letter when my heart suddenly sank as I came across a dream that one of the boys had. it simply read; "I want to be like kuya Yan". *sigh

I believe with all my heart that you boys will exceed me. Boys, I love you. But don't follow me, follow Whom I point to.

One Shot




I think it's a little too early to be reacquainted with Noel (my SLR), 3AM to be exact. I don't know what's taken a hold of me but work and YD still awaits me. Oh boy, I might need a can of poison to last this day.

So as a result of what I purchased at Borders today, I can now tick off one thing from my bucket list. The Complete Calvin & Hobbes Collection is now mine. Cost me a few hundreds but it was more than worth it. It's satisfying beyond imagination and I can't help but smile. Praise God for my job! Refer to the first pic for 1/3 of the collection. It's as big as my torso and as heavy as Penelope (my car). I can't believe that I have one of the most treasured pieces in the history of comics in my room! My kids are definitely blessed, growing up with a dad who will not only be out to embarrass, but also to creatively educate. I can hear the laughter. [:

To top off the night, (since it's 3:16AM, it's basically yesternight) I had SOAP with my SM at Nando's. Discounted chicken never tasted so good. Perinaise? Make that two.

Only Hope



Made by El. She's a precious little taco. Y'know me, funny Yan! (In joke) I saw this video first thing today when I came in at work. Had to control my laughter even though I saw it without sound. Times are too good indeed!

Lost Ones

Gave this place a new face-lift. Again. I probably will change it again later, until my eyes are satisfied. About to go to churtz for a group SOAPing with the high school leaders. Gonna be good! Will update when I get back home.

Oh and watching Zombieland with Joyce and Joyette atm. Watching it the second time is even better. Especially with these two. That's what Joyce gets for wanting to see my new room. [: Anyway, I must drop some toytles off at the pool. I wanna shower too. *sigh Wish I wasn't the epitome of lazy.

Blue Jeans



So I touched base with home around 10 last night, and as per normal I had random little things to do like put away clothes, etc. I sat down to take a 30 second breather before I start all the things I wanted to do, and before I knew it, short hand was past 12. 'Twas midnight. I found myself putting The Fray on rotation for over 2 hours and I rarely blinked. You Found Me was highlighted and was put on repeat for a while and I don't know why but I felt every word. I re-read the lyrics. Re-read. Re-read. I think I was getting confused as to why the fray was singing a song I wrote? .. (leaving that to your conclusion)

I missed a good friend of mine sorely last night, confided in another and survived through a distant aunty. (who'll [praise the Lord] be here soon) I was unbelievably in touch with the melancholic in me last night, it was kind of .. comfortable. I guess it's because I haven't done my SOAP for a couple of days. I will do it later before Bible college. I was gonna do it now during my lunch break here at woyk but I'd rather post about last night before the memory passes me by. Which reminds me, kudos to my first post here at my God-breathed work. [:

Oh and Yanentations is welcoming autumn with a personal, humble & a warm shade of green. Yay / nay? I've already got one yay from her. (I miss you)
