its been a while.

life has been much different since the last time i blogged.

for the past 2 wks, ive been walking home fr sch. other than the fact dat sch is now much nearer to home, there's another reason.

i have no money to top up my fare card.

so whenever im asked to donate money or buy something for fund-raising or eat out at restaurants, i wld say i have no money, much to the unbelief of others.

"dun bluff lah, your pay so much.. how can no money..?"

kinder ones go, "actually your pay not bad rite.. how come you still no money..?"

dats why i have been rejecting invitations to dinner outings (and getting "crap" as a reply), and even the wedding of an old friend, of which i really wanted to attend. but i had to go for work in order to give a reason why i cant go.

as such, i have been eating alot of instant noodles recently, so as to cut costs.

i have been living on shillings, coz my bank account only has $4.09 the past 2 wks.

you might ask, "why?". the only clue i will give is dat there's red paint on the floor outside my hse.

thankfully, tml is the day where i can live normally again. not sure for how long tho..

i thank God
for bringing me thru this period of time.
for friends who chose to treat so i din have to pay.
for spare cash dat popped up when i waz down to my last cent.
for peace fr Jesus so i din have to live in self-pity and think my life is the most jialat in the whole world.
for the hope dat i can have in Him and His faithfulness and His plans (to prosper and never to harm).

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in time of trouble.
- Psa 46:1.

p/s: dear concerned reader, im sure this entry caught you by surprise. well, dat shows dat i haven been showing signs im living in poverty, which testifies to God's gdness in providing for and sustaining me. do not be alarmed after reading this entry. i am and will be fine. God is with me. dun worry.
