In adoration of Big Almighty Him

Today, I decided to invest more time catching up on the students that I have grown to love. After a complete day of spending time with them, I went back and continued my Facebook and Net "investigations". Reading their blogs, their journey, my tears just flowed because God is amazing. How You work in our lives, coming down to our levels, speaking our lingos and patiently leading us back to Your arms. That's all You wanted - us.

Below, I have written a poem, my first based on the 5 words rule if there is such a rule. They don't rhyme but each line has 5 words.

Who am I, O Lord?
To be placed right here,
To witness Your glorious works
in lives that You so loved!

Who am I, O Lord?
What did I do then
That I am given this
Time with your children

Who am I, O Lord?
That You have led away
From destruction of my past
Fully forgiven and redeemed.

Who am I, O Lord?
Broken and dirty, fully sinner
And You, O Holy Lord...
Came down to restore me.

Who am I, O Lord?
Cause You love me first
That I know I am
Your precious daughter, I am.

Who am I, O Lord?
I am nothing without You
I could not stop myself
to love You, O Lord.

Insecurities can be overcome

When a little bird mentioned of a friend going through an insecurity breakdown, deep within, I smiled.

Not that I am a sadist, but that was me 3 years ago. Growing up never learning to depend on God, I used to be a person who needed others' acceptance. When I came to KL, I constantly broke down in tears at first because I was really lonely and had no one to talk to. Even when I was out with friends, I still felt lonely because they didn't cast their attention on me. My insecurity issue was major but He was majorer.

Over a long time, He led me to places where I had no one to lean on but Him. He even allowed a precious leader removed from my life (it was more like my undoing).

There were lots of crying and crying until one day, I got so sick of crying that I told God I wanted to grow up. I had enough of self-pity.

The journey to finding and building my identity in God was long but through Him, I am made stronger.

Not that I am very, very sure of myself today but I know I am a better Pam than 3 years ago. I will not deny my insecurities are still there, always lying about my self worth but with my Best Friend, together we proactively manage the evil insecurity and proclaim my worth bought over by His blood!

So if you are going through something like this, it's never too late to save yourself. The only thing is you must be willing.

Growing up is not easy but it's worth it. :)

How a doodle is translated into an illustration

Sorry guys, I am not putting the step-by-step guide here. You can find tons of them online and you will learn techniques that work for you as you get it on. Seriously, there are more than 1 way to do this.

Rian Hughes was my source of inspiration when I was in betwen stage 3 & 4. Colouring in Illustrator is really fun!

I'm just very satisfied with what I managed to learn from engaging in this project.

A blog with a purpose => Revo@365

I have been thinking about the purpose of this blog.

Would ranting/journaling about my every day life really make a difference?
Honestly, no. Entertaining, maybe but definitely not much positive impact.

A deeper question comes next: What do I want to be known for?

So I have been thinking about starting a blog that echoes Julie & Julia's concept with a twist. To find a book/or to create a 365-days list about Random Acts of Kindness, do it, and then blog it. I will call it Revo@365.
My only excuse is...what if I become too busy to do good for a day?
I don't think it's a great excuse.

I will need the list soon. Why a list? If not, I will be cracking my head for the things to do and by the time I thought of something, it may be too late for the day to do it.

Of course, it won't deserved the title Revo@365 if I don't partner with God to do it.
It's REVOLUTION with LOVE within spelt backwards.

I will seriously begin this Revo@365 next week. Pray for me to get the list ready.


Updated (18 June 2010)
I caught something from Nilai@Homes last night. That the branches can't live without the tree and I felt that Project Revo@365 needs to start off with prayers and planning. So I am just going to do that. I don't think by my own strength I can finish the project... knowing me, if I do this without Him, it will probably be known as Revo@7 or worse Revo@1. You will hear more from me soon. Now, to my knees...

Note to self: No more pets please!

Pam,

This is the young working adult version of you speaking. If you find yourself on impulse saying "Why not" to a cute&cuddly or hm-interesting pet, please remember to read this post.

You are not fit to keep any pet if 1 of the following conditions is true:
(1) Your room is in a mess
(2) Your spending habits is yet to be disciplined
(3) You come back later than 10pm every night
(4) You don't own a maid or living with your mom
(5) You are not able to check on your new pet every night to make sure they are alive.
(6) You are not able to commit to clean the cage/aquarium every day.
(7) You don't have a boyfriend.

If the conditions are met but you still insist of keeping one, please read and recall the memory below:

You had a very, very long week that saw you returning home at 11pm every night. So one Friday night, you came back after a rocking RE:UNION party and decided to check on your abandoned hermits. You noticed two immobile shells but thankfully, there were life in them.


However, those lives didn't belong to your hermits but another whole new species - called maggots. You hated them with every single cell in your body. Immediately, your heart fell and it dropped deeper when you recognized the shell of your favourite hermit among the dead. With so much depressing emotions swelled within you, you went to bed, unsure of how to clean the cage and to rescue the rest.

As usual, when you were confused, you would procrastinate as long as you can. You were so concerned about the hermits to a point that you even dream of them. Finally, you woke up and braved yourself to face the evil maggots only to discover that your cowardice had given the villains ample time to grow in power.


These wicked things had grew by centimeters over night and found strength to enlarge their territory. They had crawled above the aquarium and beyond. Horrified by sight and smell, you abandoned thoughts of squishing them but turned to the aerosol spray instead. 


Unfortunately, you had underestimated your villains. The time was ticking. Your villains were spreading to the next shelf and you needed to leave to church in 15 minutes. 

As usual, your brilliant mind came alive under pressure and you resorted to fire. You happily lighted these evil creatures that left the cage. Then, you used the 'kepit' to rescue the remaining surviving hermits. Unable to bear the sight of the evil hive, you threw the entire aquarium into the trash, took them out, and ensure the trash was miles away from your home.


The experience was so vile, it gave you an aftermath headache. From that day onwards, you vowed to yourself to not keep pets by impulse anymore. Until this point of your blog, the memory still frighten you and sometimes you thought there was something crawling in your wrist --- could it be that one of those creature crawled into your skin and.... EWWWWWWWWWW... nOnoNONO!!!


So, future Pam, please don't let your impulse make your decision especially when it comes to keeping pets.

Which one, O, which one?

I can't figure out which topic to focus in my blog. Should I write about designing, or personal development, or psycology, or jokes, or God, or food, or friends, or work, or career, of pharmaceutical or ... what????

I am fickle, it's my Myers-Briggs character traits!

except from bloginality

You are an ENFP! As an ENFP, you are Extraverted, iNtuative, Feeling , Perceiving. This makes your primary focus on Extraverted Intuition with Introverted Feeling. This is defined as a NF personality, which is part of Carl Jung's Idealist (Identity Seeking) type, and more specifically the Champions or Inspirer. As a weblogger, you may not be consistant in posts. Although, if you find a specific focus on their journal or a very flexible manner of writing, it may be more fufilling. Because you are warm and see so many posibilities in life, you may inspire others to follow in your footsteps with a journal.
