goodbye....

for those that don't know, I'll be leaving for hk tomorrow morning. i havent been to hk in about 5 years. in a way, this trip will definitely be a journey to my roots. These past couple of weeks since finishing my last exam, this idea of going back to my roots have come here and there. met up with my high school friends for a mini reunion and even got a chance to visit my old high school and walk through those same halls once more. just seeing some familiar faces at a familiar place, definitely felt comfortable. haha i think this is just my way of coping with the change in my life. trying to hang on to the comfortable and afraid to embrace the "rest of my life". i don't know where God is calling me for the years ahead and definitely don't know what God has plan for me in terms of my career, but i know God will be there each step of the way n there's nothing more i could ask for.

i also finally got all my marks for this semester. so this is good bye to UofT, the ending of a major chapter of my life and the beginning for the rest of it. God has definitely used these 5 years to help me grow both mentally and spiritually.

this post will also mark the end of this blog. i will be moving to http://www.signed-tim.com. hopefully, my first post will be from hk, the place of my origin, the place where i first learned to speak, to walk, to fall, where i first took steps inside a church n got to know God.

O, if only we all open our eyes

emotional rollercoaster...

after writing my midterm, which i probably failed since i didnt know how to do many questions and there was one question which i knew how to do but i did it wrong because i cant divide properly, we got our assignment back and i got 95% on it.

feeling renewed...

this past weekend i was at CollUni Winter Retreat which was held at Pioneer Camp. it was truly a blessed weekend, just the way how God always pulled through especially with so many uncertainty and doubts. this weekend was a time where we were able to retreat from the world and gather as a fellowship and renewed our relationship with one another and more importantly with God. i definitely enjoyed the time spent with my bible study group just discussing on what it means to be renewed and what it means to be a community of believers. just truly felt God's presence among us from the 1 on 1 conversations to singing our heart out to tubing to the insane broomball game to the bible study times to the discussions on the ride home.

thank You for answering our prayers.

o prayer...

definitely one of the least, but most powerful, thing we do.

Happy Chinese New Year !!!

yesterday was chinese new year celebration at church. definitely good times. it was just so amazing to see so many ppl from the congregation come out for the event. originally we had set up seats for around 150 ppl. those seats were quickly filled and we had to scramble for more tables and chairs. more than 1/2 of the english congregation showed up and had a great time together. despite the fact that food was prepared for about 150 ppl, everyone left full and there were plenty of leftovers. we played some random games but everyone had a good laugh and enjoyed themselves. just before the whole event was over we celebrated pastor tim's birthday as well. we were definitely one big family that day.

on a side note: i once again lock my keys in my car. this time i was at church and my mom had to come all the way from home to save me. coincidentally i had to drive barry home n he didnt have keys to his home as well.
