holiday fun!

These holidays ('vacation'/'winter break') seem to have gone really quickly (we're back to school next week) but one of the highlights has been spending time with family, especially with my cousin Grace who was here visiting for the last week.

Here are some photos from her visit, featuring our day at Luna Park with second cousins (or is that twice removed or once removed or something?) Kezia and Kayleigh. To take a closer look at these pics, click on the slideshow below.

Creating the Creator

Let us not shape Him into who we want Him to be
Let us not mould Him into One who exists only to achieve our purposes
Let us not make Him in our own image
Rather let us allow ourselves to be continually crafted in His likeness
Let us allow Him to reveal to us who He really is
Let us allow the Son to show us the Father
Let HIM do the inventing, the creating, the shaping, the moulding, the crafting, the transformation in us, and not us of Him.

Random Compliments

Recently I was told by six year old girl that I 'sorta look like Pocahontas', which thrilled me to BITS! Another time, I was invited to become an 'honorary guy' which I think was MEANT as a compliment.

Yet another time, my good friend Natalie told me that I have a 'good palate' and Jioji added that I have a 'good soft palate'. It was a first for both compliments but I think the latter wins the prize for the most random compliment I've ever received. (See Jioji, I told you I'd manage to weave that into my blog somehow and I hope I spelt your name right!)

I'd like to hear your random compliments - whether or not you believe them to be true. Post your comments now! (don't let me down)

And so it continues...

This is my first post in a while. Somehow, I've been too busy being on holidays (trans: 'vacation')! In the meanwhile, I've thought up a name for my dad's silver Toyota Avalon as well. This is the automatic car that I've been driving since I'm still not manual-savvy yet! The Avalon is also Japanese so I've decided to name him after Hiro's friend Ando, on the TV series 'Heroes' (on the left in the picture below):

Ando is better looking, taller and slicker than his mate Hiro. Funnily enough, my dad hasn't quite taken to the name!
