It's time to moveHi all, I've decided to "glycerol stock" this blog and move to a new home. Here is my new home: www.upwardsandoutwards.blogspot.com HoneyintheRock has been web home to me for almost 4 years now and has chronicled some major important parts of my uni life. I'm thankful to God for seeing me through these 4 years. It's funny because this blog started out with the intention of

mystery of the invisible smokerI'm fully convinced in my mind that there is a incorrigible smoker staying either one level above or below my room. I'm so choked every few hours it's puffing my lungs out. And when i go down everytime i smell the smoke to find out who this smoker is, i can't seem to find anyone smoking at the window! The smoker is invisible. I think i need to find other means to

Self esteem or Christ esteemI just keep on thinking why God allow me to go through such a horrible year of ups and downs? From having my energy zapped away by that centrifuge, to the rantings and complaints, to the discouragements of having screwed up results, right down to being defeated by a supposed grade one question of " who discovered penicillin?"How bad can this get?

The task of writing up my thesis now seems like a Mt Everest too hard to surmount. Plus the daily pressure from the worries of not getting the last part out in time, and having results here there everywhere but nowhere near completion, with no complete storyline to fill the thesis. adn lousy hands that resulted in shabby data.

It is strange how a person can continue to live a down-in-the-dumps life after knowing Christ. This cannot be! If Christ promise a life of peace and joy in him, then a truly converted life is one that is dynamic, active, going on to higher ground, unless of course a person claims to be in Christ but never really knew this God who loves him. If a person never really knew God yet persisted in the

Today is a very special day for me in sealing my commitment to Christ as shown through the outward expression of baptism. I've waited and pined for this day for so long, finally to stand at the beach, looking out to the waters to know that in there i will immerse and bury my old life together with Christ in his death and emerge to identify with Christ in his resurrection.

Thy hand provideth me riches of His word, shown me the majesties of His creation, allowed me pleasures ever more and days of sleeping in. Hmm.... how sweet... Boo hoo.. soon you'll be gone in a jiffy.. 3 months just like that! Now a new phase Year 2! Wonder how this new chapter will kick off. How will this ever

When was the last time you ever read a fairy tale?   Had a great time today ploughing through "The Lost Princess" by George MacDonald. It's a fantastic story about how a horrible shrew Princess Rosamond was tamed by the Wise Woman through various encounters:  the princess was slowly transformed from an ugly dull girl to being a true princess, beautiful in form and character.   Identified with

Here's a thanksgiving for the second session of tuition with my tuition kids. Phew! not easy dealing with vectors.. can't really remember them all. Wondered how i ever got past o-levels... Felt really good as i identified with the kids some important techniques and types of questions. Felt good that i had done it with my own smartness. But thank God for bringing me back to reality: Pride is to

Now Spiderman 2's the bomb! The jingle's real cute "Spiderman Spiderman Where are you Spiderman" Okay this is SO much better than Spiderman 1... Except so many things were revealed in part 2 i wonder how they are ever gonna match up in part 3. Mary Jane knows about him, his best friend's his enemy... hmm how are they gonna make this interesting in part 3? Really loved the hero theme in

Football's quite enjoyable to watch when they do close-ups of how people kick the ball. It's really quite cool. Jasmine's always wanted Portugal to win after spat of shirt-less Ronaldo photos over the past few days. The sports jounalist must be going ga-ga over him, judging from the many shirt-less photos. Okay i admit he's quite cute too. Hmm i still like Figo's intense look when he plays...

Tata! I'm back after one and a half months... So where have i disappeared to? Well apart from a week of church camp and holidaying at Gemia, i'm rooted to the sunny shores of Singapore running here and there. A retreat into Gemia did a great job at lifting my spirits and allowing me to marvel at the wonders of God's creation underwater. I saw Nemos and Dories, and swordfish and Christmas Tree

Oh horrors!!!!What is Mediacorp showing to people these days? Turned on the telly and was waiting for my weekly dose of Scrubs when i realised that they moved it to an even later timeslot. Sigh...

"There is no 'if' in my power, it is in your faith" F.B. Meyer Am particularly thrilled and dumfounded at an answered prayer of a sister. Her leave was approved such that she is now able to go for church camp! What impossibility it seemed last month judging from the circumstances. But God amazed me by showing what he means by "Ask and you shall receive that your joy may be made complete". It is

This particular excerpt has been particularly dear to me for the past few weeks.

Sawat dii kha! [meaning i wish you comfort] Being able to experience another culture totally different from yours is an experience not to be missed. Each culture has its own idiosyncracies, but along with it comes also the graces unique and belonging to the culture alone. Today's visit to ?aacaan Jeab's house proves the point yet again.

Albeit a little late, almost towards the end. Wished i had known God much earlier.... But then again, God's timing is always perfect. Wow, God

Seems like a long way since i pulled through this entire week.... " But seek first His kingdom and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you" Matt 6:33 This week has been chaotic.... 3 tests, assignments and more portions to fulfill, plus a cell group outing to add to the time stress...How can i taste God's sweetness except through the tough times?

What a day of adventure and fun...... A typical day actually but thank God for the rest before hitting the books next week onwards. Impressed at the way the older sisters-in-Christ handle a situation that doesn't even seem to bother me at all if they hadn't asked. It was scary.... a car skidded and crashed in the kerb post right in the middle. The whole black-white post was dislodged after the

I looked at all the other blogs and i marvel at how one blog can reveal so much about the inner man. What one does not dare to say or have no time to express in the public, this is THE platform to complain, rant, rave, praise, shout, lament.On the other hand it is a good way to keep frens updated, though in it i also see much vanity in wanting to make feelings known yet behind the veil.

When i listen to the lyrics of this song, it simply allows me really to take God at His word as a little child of His. "Like honey in the rock", that is how my relationship with God has been in the past 2 years. To plough through the tumultous times and have Him with me, to undergo a change in the way i view my family and let Him lead me, to go through dark times and have Him as my comfort. What
