Lost In A Hopeless, Endless World

January 10th, 2010

I was blog hopping awhile ago and most the blogs were sad posts, talking about past memories and their pain. It depressed me further.

Yet, we were meant to live for so much more.

Thanks Jo Fan, somehow reading yours brought some meaning to me.

Meant To Live - Switchfoot

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bent for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?

Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?

Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

What we feel, taste, heart, see and smell is ours. Yet, sometimes what we feel affect those around us.

Love,
Laine.

New with the Old

January 6th, 2010

School's started and the usual resumed from last year with just a few minor changes. The big minor change was our form teacher. I was shocked to see Mr. Michael coming into our class on the first day of school, he never taught us so why appearing now right? Apparently he has taken over Mr. William for English and Cik Ashikin as our form teacher. Our class is too much to handle? Perhaps so.

I missed the first 2 days of morning watch in CF room and I finally got to go this morning. I really missed you guys :) It's good to be back. Can't wait for CF this Friday.
Jo Fan, I am ready for your jokes, lame or plain dumb but I am sure most of them will be just plain dumb.

I suddenly have a sudden urge to hug my girlfriends. I shall hug you girls tomorrow, first thing when I see you all in class. Brace yourselves!

Love,
Laine.

Blessed 2010

January 1st, 2010

Blessed new year to all!

So this is a brand new year. That was quick. So I'm leaving all the old &bad behind and moving forward. We always say that don't we, but do we really do it? I'm really hoping this year would be my fresh start :) I'm depending on God, and not myself, so Amen to that.

For those who are starting the year in a new place, all the best yea! ;) May the Lord's shower you with His blessings and anointing always. Be safe.

Love,
Laine.

From Down South

Greetings from Singapore! (: Been 2 long days and looking forward for another 3 more days here. So far I've gotten some pretty good cheap (if you count dollar to dollar), and we'll be heading to Orchard Rd. tomorrow to check out the Christmas lighting and do some more shopping.

Well, welcome to Singapore!

Love,

Lil Ones

December 8th, 2009

Image0328I feel like running. Feels like forever since I really ran.So carefree and without worries.

It was great having baby Shane and Elyssa over 2 weeks ago. They were hyper kids but it was my my pleasure to have had babysat them. Shane, one tough boy and Elyssa, a cili padi, but at the end of the day with all the muscle aches from all the carrying them around, it was all worth it. To see them smile and laugh, that's my goal (:

Image0329My cousin has a taste for these kind of shirt for her kids. Cute.

Cappucino Squares

November 17th, 2009

Since I didn't go to school yesterday, I baked! With Jonathan again. This round, it was Cappuccino Squares. It's awesomely nice but pretty sweet[because of the topping]! Am thinking of baking again, with less icing sugar in the topping, and then let everyone else try. Sounds great?

Cappucino Squares My smiley topping.

Cappucino Squares 2Evened it out.

Decorated!Powdered with cocoa powder!

We made white chocolate ice-cream too. It's quite sweet and not very smooth yet but big brother said that could be improved :D achievement! Oh the contentment!

Love,
Lainie.

School ‘09

November 17th, 2009

Yesterday was the official last day of school and I missed it. Why? Simply because I didn't want to go to school. As simple as that. I doubt I missed anything anyway.

To sum the whole year up, the atmosphere 4S8 had was not new to me. The cliques here and there, gossiping and what not. I didn't say I was not guilty of doing committing them on certain occasions but we did managed to break some of the walls that kept us to our own clique. I am proud to say I know all of my classmates by name, ok I am sure all of you achieved that but let me indulge in my own happiness for awhile alright? :)

I have come to love 4S8 and I'm am looking forward to a new year and many more nonsense time in the coming year with you all again.

Some shots I took before the last school term ended.

Thank you all for making my year eventful, memorable and durable. Especially the girl who has been sitting beside me the whole year and always telling others what a lamo I am and what a fuss I can be. You are one tough nut but it was fun having all the arguments and disagreements. Thanks Germ!

Love,
Lainie.
