Birthday Post!

Thank God for a whole year of blessings since last birthday to this. I know He has guided me and brought me to places I never thought I would be, and the friends whom I met and became close to are His gifts for me to replace family which I have always yearned and desired. There were ups and downs from 2012 to now, but somehow He gave me strength to overcome them. A lot of patience was needed to remain sane this year, with the long wait for something to happen so that I could achieve a Cambridge dream and more time to spend in Europe. Indeed, waiting is tough, but the sweetness of the outcome was enough to cover the bitter wait previously. Although now there is more waiting due to the delay of my CAS for the visa application and all, still I know, all is ready for me to start my Ph.D studies in Cambridge in January 2014. A blessing indeed, one of those HUGE ones Daddy God has given me.

Though physically I am all alone this year, with no anticipation of anyone to spend this birthday with, I am glad to be alive and living. This much wanted rest after slogging for the past two years (with tonnes of fun of travelling too) is very appreciated. Nobody knows the future, but all I know, with God all things are possible.

All honour and praise and glory be to Christ, my Saviour and Redeemer.

Happy and blessed 31st birthday to me!

Back in Malaysia

It's been a long while since I've updated my blog. For a change, I'm writing from Malaysia! I've been back for almost two weeks, and getting rather used to the heat. Thank God it has been raining for the past few days, so the temperature is like summer days in UK. Just nice!

Let's do some recounting today. I have officially completed my masters, and thank God, I shall be graduating with a masters with distinction! Yay! I've also completed my 16-day trip to Republic of Ireland (wanting more!!!) with tonnes of blessings. And lastly, I've been blessed with a scholarship to continue my studies to PhD level in University of Cambridge, so yes, I am returning to the land of Fish 'n' Chips in January next year.

Right now I'm dealing with a lot of issues of insecurity and trust right now, so please pray for me.

Here are two photos from my Irish trip:

I've taken so many photos during the trip, but I have limited internet usage, so I can't upload all the photos right now...
