how great is my God. He who suffered that much so as to redeem us ALL-those who loves Him and those who dun; those who knows Him and denied Him; those who honours Him...In short, Jesus did what he did because that was THE ONLY way bring us back to God- the creator of heaven and earth.
which do i prefer? At this point of time, i'm not too sure.
TFSC vs AMKFSC...this is interesting.
I got backmy result this morning. worst results. but i still want to give thanks to God. it could have been worse. Let's take a look at Kubler-Ross grief cycle.
Shock stage: Initial paralysis at hearing the bad news.--------a Denial stage: Trying to avoid the inevitable.------------------b Anger stage: Frustrated outpouring of bottled-up emotion.---c Bargaining stage: Seeking in vain for a way out.---------------d Depression stage: Final realization of the inevitable.----------e Testing stage: Seeking realistic solutions.---------------------f Acceptance stage: Finally finding the way forward.-----------g
i went through a,b,c alr. d...there's nothing to bargain though i wrote to my lecturers to request of them to enlighten regarding my performance. off course, e...realized lor...result all alr ma. how about f: seek realistic solutions and g: finding the way fwd? they would be aims for yr3sem1 in Aug.
well...i'm better le la... got a piece of bad news from my fren. a crisis.危机- which means opportunities arise in troubling times. i really hope things work out. thus i am counting my blessings.
this lead me to the idea about prayer. it can get as far as to God as much as we have in faith that it does.
mind0boggling what is the difference between a social worker, a counsellor and a therapist? what is the difference between a volunteer welfare org and charity?
Is non-directive therapy really non-directive?Is having no purpose a purpose?
shitoboggling many call this a waste of time...dun bother la. some call this critical thinking...headache
i'm filled to the brim. i even dreamed about my work at FSC. i want time with Jesus, my beloved chek and family...
it's a new week. it'll be a week for me to rise up to occasions.
instead of attending service i decided to meet God alone on sunday. maybe it's time to let go-worship. i think it's time to loosen up myself from a bit of activities...
maybe this is the time. YA needs lotsa time and i got myself into it.
it is a new week where chek and i will overcome barriers...
and when words are spoken from my heart, it will touch u...through and through. unscripted and unreheared...live and real... with love
My first week at TFSC was great. colleagues are wonderful and orientation week itself has been really relaxing. doubt this week would be similar with added responsibilities- answering calls, doing referrals, coupled with home visits, meeting clients and with occasional seminars in school.
Let's not forget i am also helping out a friend's friend with English, involved in ... ...
my beloved sprung a surprise with me last night at my place!! WOOHOO... can considered her first successful attempt at surprising at my place. got excited when she called me after she had reached. =) grinning all the way while i was cycling home.
last weekend i went for a camp- ABSOLUT camp. It was a self-awareness camp. From it, i nv imagined i would benefit that much. They came in reminders, and also through open-sharing. The openess was to the extent i could sow the seeds of the Gospel with no usual restriction. What happened was that i was given a rle as a 22 yr old spiritual leader....who was a substance abuser...haha Hafen exercised for sometime so my lower limbs hafen yet recover even until now. hee *bleh*. I learnt tat for more effective communication, i've got to work on the mannerism (presentation), choice of words and also the tone of expression. I learnt tat i got a strong sense of right and wrong. fairness and equality. and to my surprise one of my group members commented that i could take comments and feedbacks well..as in i did appear to be offended neither did i rebut. Well, there was a struggle frankly... as i am quite subjective towards comments.
sigh...nvm. ok! i wun dwell on it negatively. it has nv meant to be tat way.
Now as my beloved said: 'back to reality'...i'm blogging in the office. took a cab becos i missed bus '28' by a minute. i spent $5.30 for a 4bus-stops distance. Got $2 sur-charge. sigh... just wanna be as early as possible, as early as punctual... when i reached office...only 3 people.
well. i chose to be here as early as possible u see...
dear, i enjoy every of ur speaking moment. it was really quality time =) *wink*
Today was my first day at placement. I will be at Tampines FSC- TFSC for the next 9weeks. Nothing much for day one except to get myself orientated and know who my colleagues are, what they portfolios, where are the counseling rooms, resource centre, children drop in centre are.
I got a desk of which I would like to slowly decorate it. I want to have pictures of my beloved and I on the table somewhere. That’ll be quite sweet. =) yea
It was not until noon then I saw a male staff. With him, I got to know about 16 pple... ie to say 15 ladies which also include our cleaner at our centre. I found out that there are 11 christians amongst the professional helpers, 2 nc, 1 catholic. So blessed to be amongst brothers and sisters in Christ. My supervisor has accepted Christ but it was said that her status is unknown. I wonder if God has intended me to reach out to her or not. Wed morning are supposed to be devotional morning.
Tues and Fri are said to be the days when a cooking team would cook lunch and dinner but this only applies for those in the team. Those who cannot cook eat out. OH! And there’re staff trainings, meeting on Fridays… I saw on the whiteboard that there is supposed to be badminton on Friday evenings.
I’ve chose to work afternn shift on Monday that means 12-9pm..while the rest of the days will be 9-6pm….
She seemed like a very nice lady. She wants initiative from me and she wouldn’t step unless she thinks I’m incompetent.
There are a handful of Msian in the centre. There are some who speaks naturally in Cantonese. Most prefer to communicate in Chinese. Even one of my Indian colleague who is one of the SWTS scholar understand that bit of Mandarin too! There might be a camp which I might go. It’s part of Guidance Programme. Wow… sounds busy yet it’s true… I’m supposed to be responsible to 5 cases myself with supervision.
AND before this… my beloved and I spent time on the weekend tog… and we were happy people… shopping… ‘m glad u didn’t insist of paying for it, I’m glad that we shopped our legs almost dropped… I’m :) that we went to fly kite…woohoo!!! Bowling and eating… I know we were quite tired by Sunday night…but we still endured to watch how Chelsea drew at arsenal and gave man-united the championship!! *hug* 谢谢。我好开心啊!
Oh well!!! i hope I will enjoy the rest of my attachment amidst recordings, camps, ya planning...
