State: 15% charging

Howdy people! =)

Walkergal is back from Ho Chi Minh!!! Just wanna say, thank you for praying for me in my absence. I also wanna thank God for always being there for me even during my travels. Here's a list that I wanna thank God for:

1. Safe flight to and fro on Jetstar
2. 4 great travelmates (including me!)
3. Someone whom I've embraced him as My Brother =)
4. The friendship forged and experiences achieved
5. Strength and energy for entire trip
6. Great drinking sessions
7. The drinking treats given during drinking sessions
8. Never ending opportunities to chat with my besty =)
9. Looking after my family when I was away
10. The toned look I seemed to have now despite drinking MUCH during the trip =)

Well. Readers.. let walkergal share with you. Exactly 2 days ago, last Saturday, that is 12 Jan 2008, it marked exactly 1 year for me in knowing my GIP mates in 2007. I still can recall vividly how ME, a computer science student, who knew nobody from GIP nor seen their faces, hopped on to SQ Airline and flew to Beijing for my Global Immersion Programme (GIP). I only came to know them after I've landed at the airport around 7 hours later. Since then, my life have been kinda changed... seriously if you ask me, I would say for the better. =)

I think that the 6 months of exchange programme for me overseas, had kinda taught me to really think hard for myself.. my wants and needs, my life, and my actual inner being. It was also the time where true friendships were forged, and I made really good friends.. and I found my besty.

I do hope the entire group will continue to stay strong together and seriously, I'll never forget my times of drinking, playing of chapteh, travelling around china, eating good food, cooking soups and rice, singing of karaoke, and getting ill from running around in china! - Dedicated to all GIP5 Beijing 2007 batch.

Yesterday (Sunday) after church service was worship meeting by brother kenneth before he leaves for Philippines. I am really glad that he gave his best to guide us in everything as according to his best ability. Let's pray that 2008 will be the year of breakthrough for Glad Tidings Gateway!

After the meeting ended, the leaders headed to Budget Terminal for a late lunch and our 2nd meeting of the day. I thank God for Sophia's Kenny who drove all of us there. It was my first time at the budget terminal. It was really not bad. We ate at Han's which (we have no idea why) had the name Hanis now. I had grilled stuffed turkey set meal served with cranberry sauce.. yummy! Not very oily. Just the way I like it. =)

After meeting, I rushed down to Far East Square at Pekins Street, Botan Japanese Restaurant. I recommended the Royals to eat there. The dinner set meals there were really TRUE Japanese styled, valued for money and the food served there is really authentic. =)

I think this week of school will be really challenging for me. Need to settle my Add/Drop module issue.. I need to seriously consider which module I am good to take it. God... please help me.

Lots of catching up to be done cos I was a naughty student who skipped 4 days of classes last week. Hur.. Seriously, God.. please gimme the discipline and focus. FYP is something I need to catch up on concurrently too.

God... help me to fork out time to exercise too can? My dear bmt mate, Doris is getting married soon in March and I was requested to be her jie mei! So... must get toned and fit.. 1 month's time should be enough I hope..
