Updates

The last entry was June 28, about some mindless entertainment with the mouse. About 2 months later, I look at my life and wonder what has happened since that entry. I took a personal 40 day journey (not literally) and adjusted my values. It has made quite an impact; I wonder how life would be from now on. Anywayz, back to the updates...

Ben & I
We've been busy. Real busy. His Masters programme has resumed, so Friday nights are lessons. He's got practicum, and is starting a fellowship where he's having it, which is absolutely awesome! So that leaves only one weeknight free, besides the weekly bible study. Weekends are for family, and so are mine.

I've been getting to school real early eversince we moved back to my in-laws for the upgrading. That's because I've been driving to school. Today was record time. I reached at 6.30a.m. and sat in the car, wondering how I got here so early. I used to arrive just before the flag raising. I like this kind of arrangement better.

We're readjusting our finances to make sure that we won't land ourselves in unfavourable predicaments. The pastor who preached last week really made an impact. What he said ministered greatly to me. It's really a different season of life now. I look at my bookshelf and it's loaded with books - and quite a number of them deal with finding a direction in life. Now that doesn't seem to be the question anymore, and after hearing his sermon on Sunday, that message really appealed to me. That's good news. :) In summary, biblical financial management in its entirety. :)

Abigail
She's talking a lot more and is code-switching rather well. She's asking Whys as a form of conversation extension and it's really enjoyable talking to her. She can draw really well and can colour well too! :) I like her art. It seems that she's doing really well in school also; her teachers are really fond of her and she gets along great with her classmates. Ben saw her play 'Scissors Paper Stone' with 3 other classmates moments after dropping her off in school. There were 2 obvious leaders in the group; she was one of them. :) I'm just really glad she's getting along well with Shalom too, instead of the usual tug of war and big wails. Shalom loves to tag along with her wherever she goes and loves her company! He mimics whatever she does, which is both good and not good.

I gotta go. Update again if there's time! :)
