you know i wrote this post yesterday. but i forgot to save it as my net automatically went offline. and now i'm stuck trying to remember what i wrote! damn it.
well, nevermind then. what's done is done. or not done rather. but today rae went off to brisbane. i felt so sad but held the tears back. it's like even if we didn't really go out that much we still knew that we would be in the same country and not far off if we did intend to go out and stuff. but now we're going to be in the same country and a few hours away. and that's just by plane!
and now i'm going to be leaving tomorrow. i know for some people it's not a big deal about going away to study. and it isn't really. but there's still the venturing into the unknown that scares me. yes i'm scared still. maybe when i'm there it won't feel so bad as it does now. but for now i feel this way. coward or not at least i'm not afraid to admit it. xP
so now i'm listening to music. and just taking in the fact that i won't be sleeping in this room for the next i-don't-know-how-many months. i'll miss you room!
i'll miss each and every single one of you. i'll try and come online as far as i can. i understand first semesters/terms can be very hectic. i've got skype now. going to get skype 2. wes says it's got webcam too. haven't got the webcam yet. might get it tomorrow/today, or somewhere, soon, somehow. got a built-in mic though, so anyone wanna talk online please do instead of calling me, especially if i'm online and not too busy to talk.
please feel free to email me too about anything and everything. if you need any advice in life, RG, uni life, australia, whatever it is, don't hesitate. doesn't mean just coz i'm in another country usually contacting and conversations can't go on, right?
keep it real in life. never pretend to be something you're not. never try to impress to high heavens without really looking to see what the next person really wants. always be yourself and true to yourself. never be afraid to stand up for what you believe in, even if others don't believe in it, and you know that it's right and not some weird way of thinking. i'm sure you can figure that out for yourself. if not, ask God. i'm sure He's more than willing to hear from each of you; your problems, what your day was like, who you like or don't like, who you feel like killing or hugging, your joys, sorrows, doubts and fears. lift it up to Him and He'll take you far in life. only God can take you to where you want to go and where He'd like you to go. look at Oprah Winfrey. why is she where she is? coz of God and she said it herself. so look at her as an example of what you can do and where you can be, if you just believe. and that's why she's always giving away stuff. coz the money's not hers to keep all to herself. and she helps people too, which is really great. i'd be so honoured if i could be on her show one day in the future.
so keep it real and keep on believing in your dreams! you'll go far in life! don't take things or people for granted. always say your please and thank yous. if you tell someone you love them, mean it. as U.Tom said, never rush into anything. always think things through and when you do something, do it with all your heart and soul and not just because it's the "in" thing to do. follow your heart, instinct and gut. and if things go wrong there, it's coz you didn't consult God first and didn't pray hard enough to do His will. which might have been, not doing what you ended up doing. keep prayer a part of each day always and never go through the day without remembering God and Him in the people around us.
He's brought me where i am. thank you God for the people, the things and all the wonderful miracles you have worked in my life. life's not about me but about the people around me too. may your will be done unto me O Lord. you've blessed me a thousand fold with all i have. words cannot express. may i not let you down, nor my friends, family and most especially myself.
will keep y'all posted on the happenings as much as possible here, so if you don't hear from me personally please visit my blog! and leave your comments under each post too! it's nice to hear from you once in a while.
keeping y'all in my thoughts and prayers always.
may you continue to be a light unto Christ and be filled with His blessings.
love you all.
