When I am awake, I am still with You...

Grateful for the long CNY break, starting with a halfday on Friday, all the way to Tuesday. 4.5 days of break! Yeah! Managed to catch 2 movies - one with my mum until 2am, about a not-so-pretty lady who went for a full cosmetic surgery & slimming operation, and became like a babe. Anyway, there was a lot of pain & esteem issues abt not looking pretty, in the way that every girl wants to look beautiful. Beauty is only skin deep, but people judge you by your appearences. One of the most lovely thing was I woke up with Ps 139 on Monday.
I liked this: I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

But the verse that I woke up with was this:
Where can I go from your Spirit?

Where can I flee from your presence?

If I go up to the heavens, you are there;

if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

...

When I awake,

I am still with you.

What I really liked abt CNY hols was I got to spend a lot of time with my family. I spent the whole of Monday at home as some people came for visitation. Other than church, the rest of Sunday was also spent with family on visitation. And this year, it seems that my eyes have become more opened, in that I don't just see my uncle and aunties as just relatives..I see that they are people with their sets of struggles and pains and joys. I think it really helps working in an organization whereby your have colleagues and partners who are in their 40s and 50s.

Slept quite a bit...but the wrinkes and dark eyerings under my eyes dont seem to be fading away...if anything, they seem to be increasing in creases. WHY! Sobs... Eyecreams dont seem to work.

Yup..back to work!
