Episode 151: my bags are packed, i’m to go
so i am leaving tomorrow.
and my mind isn’t even prepared to leave home for six months.
how on earth does one prepare anyway?
and having the usual ‘orientation is dumb’ mentality which has plagued me since jc, i can’t wait for next week to be over.
who knows what the future holds?
hopefully much less admin than this. (rain hell fire and damnation on the silly admin pokes)
hopefully i won’t miss home THAT MUCH
hopefully there would be a good comfy church there
hopefully the weather wouldn’t be as bad as how S described it to be
hopefully the people will be nice
hopefully i will have some semblance of fun
Why are you downcast, O my soul?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God. Ps 42 : 5
an irrational fear plagues my heart. irrational because I know God says do not worry (and just nice, don’t worry about your clothes [winterwear! ugh!] what you eat [expensive food!]) and God is everywhere and knows everything.
He knows the insane speed I have to clear the international customs at adelaide whilst running to the domestic side lugging ALL my luggage
He knows that I dont know where I live (mega ooops)
He knows i don’t know if the dean’s office approved my study plan (as usual, rain down hell fire and damnnation)
He knows that I don’t like to meet new people
and He also knows my innermost thoughts and deepest darkest fears.
and I know, God is in control.
I like my parents’ wedding psalm. it brings much comfort in times of apprehension.
1 God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
Selah4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.5 God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.7 The LORD Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Selah8 Come and see the works of the LORD,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatters the spear,
he burns the shields [b] with fire.10 “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”11 The LORD Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
SelahPs 46.
meanwhile, i shall go, and attempt to repack my bag.
till next time,
debs
Episode 150: vintage glamour…
so almost the whole a04 went for A.’s party…except for C who had a work engagement, R who didn’t come back from Melb this time round, and same-name who is uncontactable, as usual. some things never change…
that is ze class! 
even though we got alot of slack for being the humans class yadayada…i think life would have been very different in jc without them and no matter how psycho or autustic they are, we all sharpen each other’s minds…
and thats all the various nj arts people that were there…and before L and P took off their rented outfits…which was hilarious cuz L even wore the cummerband…and they rented the entire thingamajig for only $40 per pop. cool! it was hilarious when they came in…and as usual, some things never change…
S and me. yay! sighs, am going to miss her when going to melb. but yay for the pic anyway..how narcissistic…
oh and J too! heart heart also! the only person who i ever got into a real slug fest with..but whom because of that i love dearly too!
it was good meeting up with all of them again. even though we were a very fragmented class, the smallest one in school too with only 17 people, and yet with a gajillion wierd personalities and a crap load of plastic food wrappers under the tables at GR34…it is a wonder how we survived the 2 unhygenic years. and with cool lit teachers with “prophetic fingers”, maths teachers who go “aiyah, sure get A one la”, geog teachers who go “are you sure you can even get a B?” and econs classes where S and I would sing “jinglebells” the whole time to while away the time…it was one helluva journey. and i wouldn’t have want to spend it with other people.
Episode 149: :)
