A Year of Adventure

*

2013 has been a great year for me. There were a lot of ups and downs, but I also witnessed how God walked with me and built my faith whenever I was facing trials in many kinds. 

This year, I prayed a Sun Stand Still prayer, and I know that adventures are waiting ahead of me. I don't know what God will take away from me so that I will not be too comfortable in my life in order to achieve my audacious vision. 

After two years of being a Christian, I slowly discover the gift that God has given to me, and the reasons why He designed me to be like me - an introvert with sensitive feeling, but love to be the center of attention. 

And because of the Sun Stand Still prayer that I prayed, things that seemed impossible to me started to become possible. I can see God's abundant blessings pouring onto me. Amazing, that feeling is truly amazing at the moment when I witness God's blessing.

Yet, I must remain humble - I am here to serve others, with all that God has given me. Like what others said:" What you have, is a gift from God, what you will become, is a gift for God."

"Idioteque"

by Radiohead

Who's in bunker, who's in bunker
I've seen too much
I haven't seen enough
You haven't seen enough
I'll laugh until my head comes off
Women and children first
And children first
And children

Ice age coming, ice age coming
Let me hear both sides
Let me hear both sides
Let me hear both..

       Thank you Adrien for willing to be topless in a cold winter morning for photo shoot. Joel, our housemate moved out and gave me his beautiful English style flower couch. I love it so much and started to plan a few photo shoots with the couch before the couch is given away to our neighbour. 

       I tried to learn some French vocabularies from Adrien, but I gave up, because my tongue doesn't like to pronounce French words. What a coincidence that I cooked Thai Tom Yam soup on the first day Adrien arrived in Melbourne, he couldn't bear the spiciness and ended up ate nothing for dinner - not a good experience for his first day in Melbourne. We chatted about his hometown, Chartes in France, and had a look at his grandparents' house, uncle's house and his house from Google Map - it's always interesting to hear about other's story. You will be one of the top skater in the world! We will miss you deeply Adrien!

NO.5

5 of us are staying in Unit 5.
Gary, WeiWei, Shi Wen, Matt, Alexis and a dog name Headie.


It was Alexis's last day staying in our house.
We were having the last dinner at 8pm and last supper at 1am.
Beers, jokes, laughter, music, shooting and games.

Alexis,  a happy-go-lucky french guy from New Caledonia.
Loves music, good voice, plays guitar, and loves his country.
He seldom cook but his food are great.
And he has the firmest butt among Gary and Matt.

Matt,  a blue eyes stylish blondie British Barbie.
He loves his fringe and would never allow it to be cut.
A great poser, crazy, nice smile and easy-going.
Has lots of colorful socks and boxers.
And he always lose in playing Caps with Alexis.

Shi Wen,  an interesting girl from Beijing.
She is active in her uni activities and you can hardly see her.
She loves to cook and has her signature big smile.
And she is a sleeping beauty who just woke up from hibernating.

Gary,  the hairiest Malaysian.
Nothing to talk about him except his hair.

Wei Wei,  a half-thai-half-chinese Malaysian.
Working her ass hard to be an Artist + Photographer.

Headie,  the only Aussie in Unit 5.
His breed is Kelpie, Australian sheep dog.
Kind, active and hardworking.
Loves to lick my face when I am talking.
And poor Headie is having a hangover for 2 days after he was forced to lick on some liquor on that  farewell dinner....


We are just a bunch of crazy people staying in No.5.
