Going off again

Starting placement again coming Monday. Same, a pediatric placement. I did not take time to review anything as I think it's quite useless to review since it did not make a difference when i did revision prior my previous placement. However, this time it's slightly different as the supervisor did not give us any placement preparation reading at all. I hope all is fine.

Pray to Lord,
that I can learn something new in this coming placement.
that He can prepare my feelings as I don't that excited compare to the previous placement.
that I am emotionally prepared to meet different things next week.
that my knowledge about pediatrics have not left me yet.
that my supervisor is a good person, who I can speak my mind clearly with.
that the whole placement would be under His care.
that I would be able to pass this placement with no worries.

Thank you Lord.

In Jesus Christ's name I pray, Amen.

Life can be disappointing, but never forget He will always be there

Placement for a few weeks by now, quite busy but I've enjoyed it thus far. It's great that we get a very knowledgeable supervisor, she taught me a lot, giving me lots of feedbacks. But I hope I don't get reliant on her. It's human nature to take the easy road, no matter who it is. I thought I was doing fine, making positive progress while seeking for her support. But I never thought that the mid evaluation would be this bad. Slightly discouraged, actually, but VERY disappointed with myself. Have I picked the wrong way to seek support? I've always wanted re-assurance in all the things I do, and therefore, I seek for re-assurance, which seemed to be support-seeking or reliant for many people. But now, I truly regret my actions. If it would caused such misery to me now.

I pray that God would continue to walk with me to the end. I pray that despite all the stress that have been piling up, I would still be able to do my work properly. I pray that for all the work that I have put forward, I could at least help my clients to move forward. I pray that these hard work or experience would not be a waste; not for the clients, myself or even in the eyes of my supervisors.

I'll try to pull myself back, try not to be reliant on people too much, after all, I've been alone all these while. Why would I need support at this moment in my life. It's not required, nor is it optional. I won't let support-seeking be an option in my life. Not now, not ever!

After all, I only need HIM in my life and my life would be the greatest on earth.

I hope things would come to an end quickly. This placement is like a double-edge sword for me. The tension has risen too high, just like last time.

Countdown to first placement: 4days

At last, there's only 4 more days left. Everything's done. I'm kinda looking forward to it but somehow a little anxious as well. Think that I might have trouble sleeping the day before my first day. Still thinking whether I should go before my placement day to observe the site location and parking area. Gonna be hectic if I left everything till the last day. But it's quite a distance and I dont really wanna waste my petrol to go all the way there just to look around. What should I do? Even if I do want to go in, I'll have to sort out my time as well. Now that I think about it, should have gone in last Monday, during the public holiday. OMG!

Anyhow, hopefully everything goes well and that I could learn a lot from the place. Since we haven't got our client information, we cant really prepare for anything, but to be prepared for everything. Hence, I'm really paranoid now.

May God bless us all. There's four of us there, so I hope everything goes well.

I hope everything goes well especially after looking forward to it so much

I applied for the NPC two months ago but have not received it and decided to ring the department. They told me that they have received my application but have not processed it since there's lack of information but no one contacted me about it. And so, I personally went down to the department to get it done. Now everything's under processing but I pray that I'll receive it before my placement or else I'll have to either defer it or change my placement block which means that I'll be bored to death for the beginning 6 months but super busy for the next 6 months.

However, yesterday when I went down to the department to send in the application, good things happen after all that stress worrying about the application. My sisters went with me to the department. After that, we went for delicious revolving sushi at Jaws and even brought Mochi out to the little park at Victoria Park and had the best time ever walking him (since it's always very difficult to bring him to walks normally). That is so much fun. I thank God greatly for all that happen yesterday despite the worries for the past few days.

Weekend Project

We found an interesting recipe and decided to make it. I made the skin/ bun itself, whereas my elder sister made the fillings and the other cut out papers to place the buns. Project name is Japanese steamed bun (肉まん）by Nami - http://www.justonecookbook.com/

Give it a try. It's easy to make and super delicious.

Anime update

Woke up morning, finish my devotion and prayer and thought that I would check on my regular updates on anime and manga; but suddenly received a notice stating that the website is closing down. Luckily, someone directed us to another website which we could use. I pity the original owner from the closed website for having such a trouble just by opening a website for us to download different anime, but I truly thanks you from the bottom of my heart for all these continuous years of anime supply - for giving my life a little difference.

I pray to Lord, that your case could be solved as quickly as possible with little or no mishaps towards your future. 

Fasting Day 5

Everyone have their own issue in life. Life is not perfect and pretty as any child has imagined. Freedom?               Nope
Money?                  Nope
Perfect lifestyle?    Nope
Burden?                 Yes

How then, do Christians live in this world without being swayed by earthly desires?
By faith?                                                Maybe
Attending church and fellowship?         Probably
Having a close relationship with God?  Definitely!
  (How do you do that? By PRAYER!!)
   Prayer is the answer for everything as a living christian.

However, fasting comes when one is desperate in praying, as bible said:
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." (Matthew 7:7)

It is not a sign of petition where you threaten God to give as you have already given up something (fasting). You don't trade with God for that! God doesn't need anything that you are trading with Him. 

Despite that, fasting prayer doesn't mean that you will definitely get what you want. Remember that you are not doing a business trade. You are ONLY desperate to ask for what you want in life. God will have His own time and things prepared for you. He may not give you what you ask for; but whatever He gave you will definitely be the most essential, best and most suitable thing in your life. for the bible said, "Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?" (Luke 11:11).
Therefore, rest assure for God has prepared the best to be given to you at the best time in your life. Stay faithful and wait for His time.

Finish class - 2nd week

Finished up all the classes. Now, approx. two months to my first placement; looking forward to it a lot. Earlier, the posts were some video clips taken among our batch's soon-graduating-OT. It's quite cool; summarizing all that we've gone through in these many years as an OT student.

Something happen within my household. So we started a one month fasting prayer. Today's the first day. It's great that you spend time with God, not jumbled by anything worldly. You can totally feel that God's watching your every steps and movement when you do something. A sense of closeness that you can never gain in your busy metro life.

It has been a long time

It has been such a long time since I clicked into this link again. I'm just so bored today and doesn't feel like doing anything 'cause of the extreme weather. Last year July, my sister bought a miniature schnauzer and thus, the house became lively and I have less time to be in front of the computer, doing nothing and updating this blog.

Now, it's 2015. I'm so excited to be in my last year of my study. I really hope that I could go through all this.   だて、好いも悪いも、今年わ最後なんです。だからお互い頑張りましょ。
