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."

A big big hug to my boyfriend for capturing the best shot of mine.

We were wondering, it would be very awkward if anyone of my neighbours pass by 

the window and saw a huge naked butt by sitting the window... 

Haha!

I am in love with European films.

One of the things I do the most since I moved to Melbourne is watching European films. 

Some of the story plots are weird, some are insanely funny, and some are really disturbing. 

90% of the European films that I've watched from television contained nudity.

For the first few months I was having culture shocked and wondered,

why do French love to have nude scenes in their films?

Is this how they celebrate love and sex?

Now I am able to watch the nude scenes with different perspective, 

not with a lusty way, but to appreciate the artistic parts of them.

European films are really entertaining!

Here are some of the films that I like:

 C.R.A.Z.Y. (Canada) - crazy gay plot

Solino (Germany) - nasty brother

Black Ice (Finland) - disturbing

Amreeka (U.S) - love this one!

A Song For Martin  (Sweden) - middle age's romance

 La Vie En Rose (France) - beautifully sad

Gilles's Wife (France) - similar plot to "Black Ice", do not under estimate your wife

Mommo the Bogeyman (Turkey) - one of my favourites

Empties (Czech Republic) - affair happens in all ages

Silent Souls (Russia) - awarded the Golden Osella for best cinematography 

Gainsbourg (France) - the cabbage head is really disturbing me recently...

Father's Chair (Brazil) - beautiful and genuine

I Am Waiting

I am waiting patiently
For the day to come
For my chance to arrive
To get me out of here
I am waiting


16/03/2010
I finally see the light!
It was the happiest day in my life,
as I bought a ticket to Melbourne to meet my-soon-to-be-lover.
Soon-to-be-lover means we were not yet a couple but we were more than just friends before I came to Melbourne.

He was the one who got me out from depression,
He was the one to cure my insomnia.
He was the one who support me to fight for my dreams.
It's about whether you dare to make a decision.
So I made the right decision by paying him a visit, and he became my lover, eventually.
I think the longest time in life would be the time when you were waiting eagerly to meet your lover.
There were crosses and circles on the calender, counting the day to arrive.
Day and night. Day by Day. Hour by Hour. Minute by Minute.

10/10/10, the day finally has arrived.
The first thing he said to me when I passed through the airport arrival gate was:
" Would you be my girlfriend?"
And yes everything is worth waiting for.
