Wetness day

Thanking God for the refreshing shower of rain that the air is all cool today. Went out with Joanne for lunch. We ate at Hongkie Kopitiam - I haven't been there since Louise's and Wei Nin's farewell. It was a good time of catching up and talking. Jo, I pray that you will continue to be zealous and passionate for God in every way - and that He would make you adequate to be His instrument, fit for the service of His Kingdom.

I am appreciating the flexibility of my hours now that I have opted to finish MCS (Master of Christian Studies) via self-studies. (Thank you to my Academic Dean!) There are more assignments definitely, because I am not sitting in classes (which I actually prefer, coz it means that I do alot more research on my own that helps me learn better) - but it means that I am able to do meet-ups and follow-ups with people more often (since I don't have to be at Batu Ferringhi at a fixed time), make more time for friends, do long-distance discipleship/mentoring with people out of Penang/Malaysia, go out-station if I need to, work and plan from the comfort of my home and pace myself better. Furthermore, this 6 months is brilliant transition for me with regards to fitting into my newly-married life. I am also cooking so much more than before. Not the conventional lifestyle of a person who has an MB BCh BAO (so for all of you who were wondering which hospital I've been posted at that I am constantly talking about "assignments", let's just say that I am not doing clinical work or walking the paths you are walking - and I ain't working in any hospital. Probably never will. Haha. I'm doing something else with my years in med sch, ok?:) ) - but then again, I was never a conventional person all my life. That was the way my Creator made me, I suppose. To find joy and fulfillment in being unconventional!
