Finally back in Aust after going home to S'pore for nearly a week.. for anyone still wondering why i suddenly flew back and disupted my studies till next semester, pls go to yan's blog to see y.. sadness n grief had come upon me and there r times where i just can't control my emotions. I was at a loss, not knowing what to do, where to go next, how my life would change. but my mom is a very strong person, n thu all odds, she managed to settle every issue one by one, determined to give me n my sis a normal n gd life..

i would jus like to say that my dad is a wonderful man. I use the word IS bcos i don believe he is gone. As christians, we believe that in fact he is much happier nw, in a place where there is no pain, suffering n a place where he can enjoy eternal life. We have eternal life too, if we have jesus in our hearts.. there is no trouble to big God cannot solve it, there is no mountain(obstacles) too big he cannot move it. I will forever hold 19/08/2004 as a v special day where my dad went home to be with the Lord.. n i will always remember this verses:

"I am the resurrrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies, amd whoever lives and believes in me will never die." John 11: 25-26

"Surely the goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and i will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." Psalm 23: 6
