chronicles of young: February 2016

Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Tuesday, February 16, 2016. I never really liked Joy from Inside Out, as perky as she was all the time. Maybe precisely because she is perky no matter what. Having to do a programme with Inside Out as the theme, I had analyse and rewatch the movie scenes. The identification sometimes hit too close. The part where Riley finds that things between Meg and her have changed, where Goofy Island crumbled, where Friendship Island crumbled. Where is the joy?

chronicles of young: Unbelief
http://chroniclesofyoung.blogspot.com/2016/12/unbelief.html
Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Sunday, December 25, 2016. I do believe, help me overcome my unbelief! Mark 9:24b)- the cry of a father begging Jesus to heal his possessed son. The past week has been difficult emotionally. I am exasperated at emotionality, (yet the prayer Break my heart for what breaks Yours. Is surely pleasing to You, Abba Father), at how weak I am, at how self-glorifying I am. I have realised, unbelief is also a temptation. Is God really real? But how, Lord. How?

chronicles of young: April 2016

Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Saturday, April 30, 2016. View from my favorite CLB corner seat. Everything is meaningless." What does a man gain from all his labor at which he toils under the sun? Ecclesiastes 1:2b-3, NIV). As I was about to type how I woke up with this hollowed feeling, I remembered that this is not new. Old question recently surfaced: What am I doing? Like really, what am I achieving? From today at Sunday School training. Another ordinary day today. Usual grudge tha...

Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Thursday, December 15, 2016. The Morning I Wept. Somehow, today I did. Started my quiet time with hymns. At It is Well. Bethel), I teared, remembering how I sang it in Mongolia when I was dealing with stuffs. Reminded to be quiet and trust. The next song Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing. Was what opened the floodgates. "On that day, when freed from sinning, I shall see Thy lovely face / Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God".

chronicles of young: 4am
http://chroniclesofyoung.blogspot.com/2017/01/4am.html
Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Saturday, January 7, 2017. It's the 4am epiphany again. I am very glad that this time it was for Glory Presbyterian Church. Pretty sure my proposal will be taken favorably, excited to see what happens. Thank you, Father, You have let me do what I wanted to do. 4) Is still important to me but hmm I don't feel like it will be a big priority. I am on my way to work that I find such meaning and purpose in too, something that I have wanted to do since I was 18.

chronicles of young: August 2016

Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Friday, August 26, 2016. Garbled Reflections on Love. It's 12.41am, and I am strangely awake. It's been a long day, starting with meeting the Utown peeps (and free breakfast yay! At 830am which meant I had to wake up at 6. And so the conclusion: Love compels us to do things that do not make sense. To most of the world at least. All these things: joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control- they flow from love.

chronicles of young: July 2016
http://chroniclesofyoung.blogspot.com/2016_07_01_archive.html
Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Sunday, July 31, 2016. This week has been one of tensed shoulders, little sleep, anxiety, distressing thoughts at whether I might be developing anxiety issues or being able to cope with the year ahead or how people will see me or whether I am going to do anything worthwhile. At the back of my head are my family and friends whom I need to spend time with. I still have questions: How then do I live my life? It's a journey. You who will be at the end sh...

Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Friday, September 30, 2016. Food: A Liminal Space. Liminal space: an in-between space of both becoming and transition. It struck me as I was thinking about how we conceived the almost-crazy idea of doing a mini social enterprise (what is thesis. what is year 4. what is Exco lol), that food has been central in many things. Looking at photos of food from the past 2 weeks (mostly this week), I begin to see that food has created a liminal space. Don't think ...

Chronicling my life. hoping to stay young forever. Sunday, June 12, 2016. Walking on Broken Glass. This was typed during the family trip to Hokkaido; felt like I should just publish it without too much editing-. Articulation of my innermost thoughts that I kept almost hidden from myself. self-righteously judging these people but only realising that I agreed when these thoughts were verbalised. The lone ladies in pink jackets waiting by the roadside. The two ladies with their bunny tops. My hair is wet an...
