When It All Falls Apart





Where do you turn to ?

Where can you turn to ?





Lord, please fill me once more.

You are the Answer





There is nothing like your love
No exchange for all you gave
To be welcomed into life 
So I can know the love that saves

It's been a tough week so far as I have been very very busy. There are a few things that I have to settle like my fees, buying my textbooks, getting my assignment done and the list goes on. It was not so much about the fact that I was busy that bothered me, rather I fell into the pit of worry. I admit that I was worrying about mistakes that I cannot instantly fix and in return caused me to be even more careless. 

I worried when I should have trust. I had lost my focus.

And yet through all the mistakes and worry, someone was just waiting there to get me out of all the mess. All I had to do was ask. Despite the fact that it has been a difficult week, God has been showing me more evidently that He is real and that He will lead me to the right path. There is an easier way than the road of worry and the answer is simply, Jesus. 

Looking back to what has happened throughout the week, I thank God for His grace and strength to get through the week of hectic schedule, for the people He has brought along my path to encourage me to persevere and for reminding me of how much He loves me and also, you. 

I'm getting a 3 day weekend break as I will be going down to Gloucester tomorrow morning until Sunday! :D 
I hope that you too will have a great weekend!



P/s : I  really miss my Xabi boy and everybody back home .

Hello from Cardiff




Hello, hello :)


I know that this is such a delayed post since I have already arrived here for almost 2 weeks! Classes has in fact already started and I have even handed in my first assignment. Oh yeah, the picture above is actually the main building of Cardiff University. I find it very beautiful. Sadly, the Cardiff Law Building isn't half as nice. heh.


So, how am I finding Cardiff so far?


If i were to answer great, I would be lying. Having said that, Cardiff is a really nice city and I am having the time of my life here. I guess it is just that anywhere far from home just wouldn't be as great. It's because I miss home, I miss my family & friends, my Xabi, my room and also FOOD. One of the things that I had to swiftly learn here is to cook! I have more pictures of food in my camera rather than sceneries. haha. 

Other than being home sick and food sick, everything else is fine and pleasant. Im still getting used to classes, my accommodation and how things work here and I'm very glad to say that I think everything is going on better than I thought it would be. I don't find Cardiff to be so great now but I know I will grow to like this place more and more each day because everyday I am making new memories, learning new things and experiencing life like I will never ever do in another time of my life. One thing that I'm sure is that God is here with me and that He is good.


 Because He is the only one that gets me through each day with a smile!

Your Purpose ; My Priority



taken @ LCCT 28/7


The time has come, at last.
After three, almost four long months of waiting. 
There has been alot that has been running through my mind.
Questions which would never have crossed my mind 
in the past seems to be in need of answers now. 
I believe leaving one's home is not just only an experience, 
it is also a conscious realisation of who you really are, 
what you do and what you have around you. 


You realise . . .


... who are the people who really care about you.
(and this may come as a surprise)
... how lovely and comfortable your home is.
... that you are not so much of an adult as you thought you were
... that you have a great deal to learn.
... that you have been blessed with so much.
... that He is always there.



Jeremiah 29 : 11
For I know the plans I have for you,
plans to prosper you and not to harm you
plans to give you hope and a future.



Tomorrow a new chapter begins! :)
(and He'll be with me all the way)




Goodbye family & friends.
Goodbye my beloved home.
Take care & don't forget me!

The debt all men must pay





I still remember the time when you laughed at me when I fell down.
We may not have spent a whole lot of time together
but when we did they were fun times filled with laughter.
Rest in peace, Shobaant.

Why do we get caught off
guard each and every time?

Bleh, i hate pills


I'm back from camp :)



But the sad sad news is that I'm not feeling too well myself. :(
My throat hurts and I was hit with a fever last night.
So, I hope everybody else will take good care of their health &
drink tons and gallons of water. Please do.



On a happier note, camp was great!

The smile says it all :)


P/S : I'll update when i am feeling better. Did i mention i hate pills? They are disgusting. sigh.
