Breakaway & The Star of Bethlehem

Image
what happens every Tuesday? Breakaway! it all started in 1989 as a bible study group where 12 students worship and study the bible, it grew and grew and now, it's the largest weekly gathering group on campus for great worship and sharing! to my surprise, Chris Tomlin attended Texas A&M and he was once the worship leader for breakaway. "There I was in college at Texas A&M, leading worship for a Bible study called Breakaway." Chris Tomlin http://www.familychristian.com/music/interviews/chris_noise.he.makes1.asp  Praise God for the opportunity for me to be involved! (remembering that TAMU has never been the university that I wanted to attend. it was just another safety school I plan to apply to. and My choice was never to attend any university Alone..) nevertheless, I'm once again assured of the purpose of Him sending me here :)  "It's about the awesomeness of God, and what He is doing and the person of Jesus Christ. That is what we want to celebr...

tiny bits of the States

I have been living in a world of books, tests, assignments, homework and Library! Library officially became my 2nd home and i actually liked that :) I'm not a nerd! just that i like the cozy feeling of the library where you CAN... 1. borrow your textbooks for a period of 4 hours check-out per time, but not spending tons of money to buy it 2. just lie of the sofa and sleep like nobody's business 3. crash into one of the studyroom and do whatever you like in there with nobody watching you 4. use the computer for whatsoever reason (Without a sticky note of "only official work! no facebook!" ) 5. choose to sit at the 'Poor Yoricks'-the snack&coffee corner and smell all kinds of yummy smell 6.explore the best-seller books corner and find out all kinds of famous and recommended books to read without buying them in MPH or kinokuniya 7. Bring your BAG in! but not leaving them outside of the library and holding a handful of books and stationery and sometim...

Broke. i'm broke! :( just paid for my accommodation for this semester (+ general deposit and late fee charges, well i'm not being informed about the fee to be paid but they kept charging me for late payment until now! mygoodnesss!) i think i have $100+ left in my bank account. yup! that's it. nothing more. and a few bucks in my purse. wow!! i'm officially broke! O.O when is our sponsor crediting our account? It's November already! money should be in by end of last month or early this month! gosh! are they always like that? even when we're overseas? what if we really have no more money to even eat? never thought of that huh? they trust us to find our own source of income i guess. (means that i should find a part-time job here, at least i can save up some of my income for emergency usage. hmm...) oh and i got my test 2 results back. hmm, well, a friend told me: study is all about using the right method. it makes full sense to me! well, a bit of a good...

OKay. I'm happy! :D and i hope that this will last!   I bought an AGGIE shirt! weehee~! and a TAMU jacket which i've been longing to have ever since i found out that i'm coming to TAMU. went to volunteer in the National science festival (Big Physics Day) and attended a Public Lecture by 1986 Nobel Prize winner Dr. Dudley R. Herschbach (see him? that small one o'er there :D ) and surprisingly found myself in the newspaper on Sunday morning when Kent told me that "You are famous!" LOL  got an awesomely lovely postcard all the way from Wisconsin (dudu <3 chloe chong!)   went and watched the Thriller dance (done internationally at the same day, time). ours are done outside of sbisa dining center. everyone is free to join the dance lesson and free to join the dance. they dressed up and make-up like zombies dancing with Michael Jackson's Thriller song. having farewell for an awesome sister-in-Christ I've met in ICF- Kate who finished her PhD ...

Smart Faith?

Image
We had a deep discussion on ICF just now about having Smart Faith instead of Blind Faith. about how many knowledge and theories found were actually parallel to the bible beliefs, but scientists tried to put God out of the picture to the extent of saying Aliens created all that exist. Who created Aliens then? Well, it's kinda deep. i mean it can go deeper but time and situation don't allow it. I have a lot of thoughts in my mind. in fact i actually asked the professor who shared "How about childlike faith?" All it takes is just one sentence from him,(he quoted from someone but i forgot who was that) he said, "we should have a childlike faith, with an adult mind" thoughts running through my mind. I have been really interested to find out more. but i am always having a combination of being curious yet afraid. I am afraid that What If? What if in the process of finding out, I found more logical explanation for the other way. i'm very comfortable ...

Just as a rainbow is God's covenant to Noah that he'd not do it again, the moon is God's covenant to me that He is with me and He will bring me through it all :)
