M is for Monica. i'm a full time commerce student @ UWA. i turn one year older on the 14th Oct. i ♥ Jesus and not afraid to tell the world. i want to do YWAM and missions in the future. i love heights - planes, skyscrapers, mountains, cliffs, you name it. One day i hope to go bungee jumping and sky diving. i was born in China but have lived in Australia most of my life. Having said that, i'm still quite chinese lol. i like pink things, ribbons, bows, hearts, hello kitty, ruffles, lace, florals. i have a shoe fetish. i wouldn't call myself a shopaholic, although most of my friends would say otherwise. People often see me as strong, independent, ambitious. i thank God for the past 21 years that i've been alive. He has been ever faithful, gracious and loving.

>Your grace has found me just as i am, empty handed but alive in Your hands
>i called, You answered, i wanna be where You are
>i am a flower quickly fading, here today and gone tomorrow, a wave tossed in the ocean, vapour in the wind. still You hear me when i call out, Lord you catch me when i'm falling and you tell me who i am, i am Yours
>Broken hearts become brand new, that's what faith can do
>A thousand times i've failed, still Your mercy remains. And should i stumble again, still i'm caught in Your grace.
>My heart will sing, no other name, Jesus.
>If i had wings i would fly, coz all that i am, You are. If the world caved in around me, to You i'd still hold on.
>Your light will shine when all else fades
>i'm running to Your arms, i'm running to Your arms. The riches of Your love will always be enough.
>我们不是你和我
>活在第一次的见面里
>只要你一个眼神肯定,我的爱就有意义
>爱转角遇见了谁,是否有爱情的美。爱转角以后的街,能不能有我来陪。
>自由再被绑架之前,我决定过瘾的享受孤单。
>笑着面对每个阻碍,不轻易说离开
>我还记得你笑的像孩子一样
>离开我,你会不会好一点?
>幸福的开始就是放手去爱
>心碎了一地,捡不回从前的心跳
>我会学着放弃你,是因为我太爱你
>you're the only one whose got enough of me to break my heart
>you're the only one i've loved enough to not forget
>Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? i could really use a wish right now
>you're the best thing that's ever been mine
>In a storm, in my best dress, fearless.
>If you're my dream please come true

perth-hongkong
Thursday, June 17, 2010

So right now i'm at hongkong airport using free wireless internet C: oh gosh this has been the most hectic check-in i've ever been through! The story goes like this: dad & i checked at Perth International airport kinda late. After our luggage was checked in, we went upstairs and where they check your passport + boarding pass. Halfway in the line, we happened to check our boarding pass and found out the girl that checked our luggage in gave dad the wrong boarding pass!!! So he had to go all the way downstairs to get the right one. We also had to get a tax refund on duty free items we're bringing into china. So while dad went downstairs again, i had to get my passport + boarding pass checked and after that wait in line to get the refund. i waited for like 20mins for the refund, but thank God by that time dad was back. After that we had to get our carry-in luggage checked by the screen thingo. Turned out dad brought lanolin oil and he forgot that was a liquid -_- there were 18 bottles in total and 6 of them were taken away. That checking/negotiating process took a while. Straight after that we were chosen to take a security check. By that time we were both annoyed and stressing because we were quite late for the flight already. But thankfully in the end we got on the flight to hongkong. Feels like the devil attacking from all sides. It feels like amazing things are gonna happen on this trip.

It was quite funny on the plane coz since my dad and i arrived lateish to the airport, we werent seated together. As i just settled into my seat, this random asian guy came up to me and said my dad asked him to change seats with me. LOL! On the 7.5hr plane ride to hongkong, i nearly managed to watch three movies (How to Train Your Dragon, Slumdog Millionaire, Hua Mu Lan) , ate 2 meals and listened to one hour of music while trying to rest. i think i might've napped for half an hour or so. Besides the short nap, i've been awake for the past 24hrs!! oh my..so tired. My right eye is half bloodshot XD urgh gonna take a good sleep when i get back to nanjing, but dunno if i'll be able to sleep coz it's really hot and humid ><" ok imma take a rest at the airport now. Don't think i can update during my trip but i'll be back in 2 weeks anyway! So everyone take care and i'll cya all soon!

Monday, June 14, 2010

It always felt like i had to give up either my future career for mission work in China or vice versa. However, on Sat i was told otherwise! It didn't occur to me that in order to go to China on long term mission, you have to go there working in a profession. They won't let you in if you tell them you're there to do mission work. i really thought China would be so much more open now but obviously i was wrong. This is one of those moments when i realise where God has been leading me all this time. He never left me, His ways are just beyond comprehension. Thankyou Lord for being ever faithful!

Here i am, sitting at Reid Library at 8am on a tuesday morning, waiting for my derivatives exam to start. It's the earliest i've gotten up in a LONG time. Unfortunately i've been really sick all of study break. However through that, God taught me not to take my health for granted. Not to leave everything until the last minute or tomorrow. Because you never know what will happen in the future and your last minute may come before you know it. There won't always be a tomorrow and it's one of those things we have to realise. I think you tend to realise (again) these things everytime someone around you passes away. My great grand aunt passed away in China yesterday at the age of 88. She wasn't a Christian. i have so many relatives in China that don't know the Lord. i really need to reach out to them. Hopefully this time back in China some changes will happen (: The Lord will provide (:
