- ♥ 17.07.2009

An empty room. A sunny morning. An open window.
That very sparkle of sunlight ray beamed across, birthing that very essence of touch to her pair of eyes; one would inevitably define fragility at that very fearful moment - yet from the very core of her heart, ignited a sweet, sweet rush - that would shoo away every ounce of direct piercing.

As Love conquers all.
Eyes gently closed, she smiled. In a piece of small note, every emotions that has consumed her lately; she wrote.

- ♥ Growing Up

(Photo thanks to Sue Teng, Yi Ann and Alicia! :D)

Hi, I heart this picture very much : )

And this bunch of people made all the effort, time, and heart spent all so worth it ! :D They're awesome. My awesome beautiful crazy 5 Budi ! Hehehe.

Hi.

I miss blogging. Haha. Which explains why I'm here. Just for a while yeah : )

Life has been awesome. God is GREAT :D Family and friends are forever awesome! But things are rather different. Life is. My life. Although I'm having a brand new atmosphere(not literally, but technically) to adapt to; but the outcome will be worth it at the end ! Let's just say I am growing up ;)

To realize that time is short, and time is to be redeemed. Time should not be wasted. Time should be treated with more importance than money yo.

I miss them, : ) because we don't see each other often, aww.

We. girls. are. awesome. too. (:P)

People take study leaves, as we're nearing to Trials. But I go to school for God, and for People. For myself too of course, to learn, to study, but when times that it's impossible to study because of the noisy surrounding(hahahahaha my class) and other reasons; God and people is what makes my heart beat in school :D

YEAH.

My SPM Trials in 16 days. Rawr. I gotta run, and CF is gonna be super duper awesome tomorrow ! Hehehe.

Blogging? Not completely back yet : ) If you have forgot, you can read the first post down there. *winks. Take care all. God is GREAT, all the TIME ! :D

I have a lot to anticipate and work on the following 2 weeks, and without God, I tell you, I would be collapsing anytime. Haha. But oh, His strength sustains me so much! :D And all of us too I believe :) Favorite verse from time to time, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." - Phillipians 4:13 

Hence if you have a few seconds or just merely 1 minute, I hope you can pray for the following events and items that really means so much to me! :D I super believe in the POP. (power.of.prayer) Hehe.
  • Daily Life:
  • Relationship with God 
  • Daddy's Upcoming Birthday!! 
  • Seafield CF daily prayer meeting 
  • Family+Friends, Church, Youth, CF, 5 Budi 
  • STUDY, CLAIRE MA TZI YING ! ......... SPM IN 146 DAYS, AHH ! 
  • Chores, senior page design, time to play piano, other designs, report, miscellaneous...
I have a lot that's hitting me right now, but I want to take it easily. And also strongly. I can't waste another minute of my time. Because I just can't. I believe this last week of June, then July, August and September will be sooo awesome! Ye-ah. God bless us all ! :D

- ♥ Wow.


"Oh no! What happened to your blog?" you'll ask.
I have moved all my posts from this blog and my previous blog to another place :) Don't worry, they're all safely kept. 2010, so much occured & I'm still in the process of learning, growing, and becoming. Even breathing has been complicating.

Each fall, each situation, becomes an experience: A painful memory; a lesson learnt; a wonderful memory.. altogether so precious.

Mistakes that I've done, can't regret anymore but I can learn so much from it.
Can't erase them, but I can help and warn others in need.
Forgive me if I have hurt you indirectly, I'm really sorry.

School holidays are coming to an end.
Therafter there's Father's Day, Teacher's Day, Campfire Night, Pre-Rally, Subang Rally 2010, Seafield Canteen Day!!.... etc. more duties, events...
At the end, still SPM is very important.
Wow. So much more to give, receive, learn, grow, go.
***

Hence, I'm taking this time, I want to thank God, because many times this year, I've completely failed myself and even drawn away from Him, but His faithfulness, and forgiveness amazes me and He has always comforted me in my desperations, depressions. I'm truly grateful. Also, thank you my family and friends, wow, you all have no idea how much you guys mean in my life. Seriously. Thank you for always being there for me. You all rock. And I love rocks! (haha, get it?) God, family, friends, church, youth, Seafield, CF, 5 Budi, prayer meeting!.... everything I'm a part of, everyone; I love each one of you. So much. And Love is a strong, beautiful word : )


I will be away from here for a while, I need to really adapt a whole new perspective of viewing life, appreciate every single day and every single person, relationships with God and people to be restored, search for myself and dreams again, and began to embrace who God really wants me to be : ) It's all so important, that I don't want to simply express/throw fireballs(haha) and waste a second of your time reading something not worth reading in this blog through this process of mine(understand? heh.) Yup. I'll miss all of you, take care. Remember, I believe all these in life:
  1. Having an awesome-super-personal Encounter with Jesus! ♥ 
  2. Empowering people!!
  3. And Enjoy m&m(music&movies + m&m chocolates).
Haha. I'm still around everywhere no worries :D Find me easily. School, CF, prayer meeting, church, Facebook.. haha. God bless ! I'll be back.

- ♥ Grandma's 80th Celebration.

My mum hosted a 2 all-women event as a celebration for my grandma's 80th Celebration.

One of them was 2 Fridays ago, it was Tea.

The food was really goooood. Aaron, (my mum's friend's son)(an exception of female, haha), my brother(another exception), ate like A FEW plats of Carbonara. It was really delicious!! Mmmm. Plus, there was several plates of assorted pizzas, lamb kebabs, other yummy food, and freeflow of fruit punch + iced lemon tea + coffee/tea!! :D

Oo-la-la.

I said grace(thanking God for the food in prayer) before that : ) As usual, I was rushing too fast. Looking back, I will learn now to calm myself, and pray slowly. Heh.

Catching up with Aaron, my church friend since primary, was deeply nice too. Made me realize that friendships has really to be treasured : ) How much we've changed. The sweetest thing that touched my heart is how much he's grown in his faith! Ye-ah.

-

Yesterday, it was Dinner. Each group of my grandma's "party" is held with a different group of my mum+grandma's friends.

Yesterday was, just, sooooo AWESOME.

It was with a CRAZY, haha, like seriously, bunch of women!! The worst part was they all came in different timing. And I had to crack my head everytime they go "Oh, Claire it's you!! You've grown so much!!", "Wow, Claire?".... and my head tries to Google search real quick for a string of memory of their Names. Haha. Because the last time most of them saw me was when I was still a baby, or a young girl :) I'm 16+ now. Hee.

Oh and when 2 of them asked whether I remembered them I said "No!", then they said, "But I remembered you!", and then I said, "Well you all have changed! Even prettier now!", hahahahaha and they said I "sek gong wa" [means know how to talk in Cantonese]. Hahahaha.

They were just awesome. Really. I had to talk to almost every one of them, helping my mum and grandma entertain. Well, you see, it's my first time talking to about more than 10 grown women from different backgrounds, races, religions in 1 night. Haha.

There was this women. She was so INSPIRING. She had a broken marriage due to unfaithfulness of her previous husband. Oh but now she's found a very good husband, my mum said. The way she looked(really beautiful), talked, the way she dressed, her arms were well toned(haha), and even at a time I was like the "small girl" listening to her conversation with another women, the way she really Loves what she's doing. In business, travelling all around the world. It was amazing. And she said several things that really inspired me. "To empower lives", "I don't try to sell to people, I add values", "I had alot of broken-ness in my life, and I think what really pulled me through was God",  Wo-ah, amazing!! And she asked me of my ambitions. I showed her my little notebook that wrote about 10 of them, (haha), and she was like "Wow!! I would like you to meet my daughter one day to motivate her,"... in my heart I was shyly blushing away. Haha.

Oh she's only one of them. All the others also! They asked me like what am I going to do in the future, what course to take, what stream am I in now. And one asked "Are you dating, or seeing anyone?", and I was like "Isn't that the same?" She was like "No...." And then she explained dadada. And it was hilarious. And we went on talking about other stuffs. Back to her childhood, where she used to go for Add Math tuition because there's guys, apparently because she's from a girls school! Haha.

Super funny night. And my best friend's mum was there too : ) She couldn't make it. But her mum was there! And oh, her mum is another one really really awesome too. I tell you, unexplainable. Caring, lovely. AWESOME.

Everyone of them. My eyes really opened to the maximum yesterday!! Yeah ! And 2 more lovely sweet incidents that made my night besides all the FUNNY AWESOME WOMEN :D

1. My mum gave away Table-Runners as door gifts. There was this really funny chef, he asked my mum how much does it cost, and is there anymore. My mum said no because she didn't know. Oh but I said yes! There's one last one!! I took it, I gave him. He was so happy, and said "THANK YOU!! IT'S FOR MY WIFE!", awwww, I was super touched by his love towards his wife :')

2. There was this waitress, pretty and petite, we stayed up till the shop was closed yet the crazy awesome womens were still sitting outside chatting away. It was about 12 am when I saw her there on another chair with her phone. Then I saw her walking away. I saw her boyfriend, on a motorcycle picking her up from work. He came down, gave her a helmet, she wore it. She sat behind him, hands around his waist, and they You know you usually see that in movies, but seeing it in real life is different, it was really really sweet :')

- ♥ Franklin.

I just had this nap in the middle of the afternoon. I just woke up. And I had this dream:

"I dreamt that I was gonna perform on stage with Hayley Williams(haha), and I was preparing myself in the hotel room. I think we were on tour. As I went on stage Hayley was looking really worried. She asked me where was everyone. Because Josh and Jeremy(lead guitarist and drummer) weren't there. I think they left. Oh but Taylor York was there. So it was Hayley and Taylor. And me. But Hayley was still lost on stage. And then there was this weird emcee pushing us. So

- ♥ Growing Up

Growing up is hard.

Growing up as a teenager is harder.

We all know that. We all have been through, is going through or will go through the phase of a teenager's life.. where we discover an overflowing amount of good and bad things. You know, you think you are this way. But maybe you're not. Maybe all these time you were that way because people expected you to be that way or your friends and the interests you have in has influenced you to be that way. Perhaps you are better. Perhaps you are worst.

But one of the sweetest taste of growing up: the time where at the end we finally know, have experienced and can tell others about who we really are deep inside, truthfully.

- ♥ My Heart, Paramore


Self-timer seriously cracked us up. Haha.
-
This post is all about the song My Heart, Paramore. Yay!





Actually it's about the video above. After browsing Youtube for quite some time, I have to say this is my most favorite Paramore's live performance video! :D Seriously. This song has been with me since 2007. One of the songs I used to hear everyday to my mp3 when it was around. Two months ago when I saw this video, I tell you - I felt in love instantly with this awe-sh-ome performance of Paramore. Hands-up. Seven stars out of five! Haha. I don't remember the countless times I rewatched the video! This extended version, in my opinion - is better than the original recorded song.

Where to start?
  • The video starts off with Josh Farro(lead guitarist) coming out asking the audience whether they want another song(well obviously, haha) - and then he says some 2 words that sounds like "Shake or Bake" or something like that. Which is super hilarious. Haha. Then Hayley gives a nice little word too, and the song starts! Ye-ah. I don't know how to desribe. This video is just awesome. I get different emotions, inspirations each time I hear it. Some awesome chills too, which means alot. I can see their heart for music. I can see the reason why their doing what their doing. Wow.
  • Hayley William's headbanging, is pretty cute too. Haha. Not to mention, hot. Very hot actually. Plus the whole band's too! All of them. They all have their own headbanging and the way they play their instruments, the way they connect with their audience; it's so, whoa. There's also the screaming part at the end, some of you might not like it, but yeah, I totally understand everyone's music taste. For me, well it's okay. Heh. I'm okay with any music.
  • At 5:00, begins my most favorite part of the video :) The original song doesn't have this. This is like the extended performance version. Hehe. The music in the background slows down - Hayley just leads the audience in the tune "Wo-oh-oh, wo-oh-oh", and I was like, awestruck when I first heard it. Indesribable. Amazing. You can totally feel the connection man. Whoa. I wish, I really wished I was there.
  • After that they build up the song again back to the bridge, with their jamming and headbanging, wee, then till 6:18, she goes "This heart, it beats for you" - I love that part too. The way she hit her heart, and sang it out as she really meant it, whoa. I understand. I so understand. The original song doesn't have it. But this video has. The tune is simply amazing. Breathtaking. The lyrics of the song too! I tell you. I understand every inch of it. So much, till I'm jumping with joy for loving it. Wee.
Whoa. You might not get me. And my description of this video. But I really thank God for taking them that far. Their talents are awesome, their hearts are awesome, their music too. Whoa. Simply awesome!

They totally remind me the reason I love music too, and my dreams. I will share more opinions that I know to you personally if I want to. This song goes out to my Bestest Music Teacher ever! :D God bless!

What hurts the most is not being appreciated at all for the things you pour your heart and soul out to the people(s) whom you love.

Nevertheless, keep holding on. God will not let you down. Ever.

- ♥ Love? Love.

"Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself; is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails."
- 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.
Love. What does L-O-V-E mean to you?

We all love God, our family and friends. But right now I really want to pinpoint about Boy-Girl-Relationship(BGR).

  1. Because when you see a super cute hunk/hot chick and you think you've fallen in love with him/her - that's not love, it's INFATUATION. Short-term-"lovey-dovey"-feeling.
  2. Because when you think about that opposite sex's body all the time and is filled with desires of making out with that person, that's not love. That's LUST.

  3. Love and Lust is different.
  4. Love never fails. Lust always fails.






Because Love is beyond that.

- ♥ I Believe, You're My Healer

I was very sick.

Started off with 2 classmates getting sick on Monday at school. Then yesterday was Tuesday, woke up with minor - Soar throat and Cough. Very minor. Went to school. Soar throat and Cough- plus Flu came during second period - then Fever of 38.6 celcius - feeling hot cold hot cold - then major headache after recess!

:( Soarthroat, cough, flu, fever, headache tau!!! -  I haven't been sick for a long long long time. Plus I have never experienced this kind of major headache before. Ah. After school I went to the clinic, it's been more than a year that I actually went in to a clinic for myself. Scary. Then they even inform the Health department people and stuff. They even phoned me up to check on me...... furthermore. And I have to go for some check-up. Well at least it shows that everyone is really concerned about everyone's health now. Good thing. Good thing.

Me wanna thank - Jesus for healing me.
Thank you for the prayer group who prayed for me in the morning! Thank you Julia who was so caring for me and gave me tissue. Thank you my lab partners who did most of the job and forgave me for not being able to help much. Thank you Wai Yien for bring me to the St. John's room and giving me another tissue. Thank you for my Recess Revo team who prayed for me. Thank you Bryan and Seng Kiat for helping me with my class monitor works. Thank you Justin for helping me carry my books after school. Thank you for all those who prayed for me + called me + sms-ed me to check on if I was fine!

Seriously, without God, and you guys, I'll never ever be able to recover this fast.

:)

I felt so horrible yesterday, that I almost fainted at school as how Wai Yien said. Each step I took was leading me to unconsciousness.

Thank God after school, after clinic, after the sleep - I was definitely better.

You know, in just few hours.
There's gonna be school.

And schools on Saturday, are just sad. Lol. Pure sad case. Agree?

But what I'm looking forward is - Prayer Meeting in the morning.
