Unexpected Blessings

God has been really good to me. It's really more than i could ever ask for.

If you've read my previous post about losing my barely-a-year-old Sony Ericsson phone, you would probably know how devastated i was. And the fact that i didn't know how i lost it makes it even more bizarre. Not to mention it's the second phone i lost. =/
But sob stories aside, i just wanna express my joy and thankfulness towards the Lord for giving me a brand new phone just last Friday. =)

I still remember i said this prayer ''Lord, you know how i feel about the lost of my phone..only you know the pain..cuz it's the 2nd time already. And i don't expect mum or dad to get me one.(cuz i know it's time i became responsible for my own actions, whether or not i am in fault)
Right now i just wanna ask that you'll bless me with a brand new phone,Lord. Send a Good Samaritan to bless me Lord i pray. Cuz i really can't afford to come out with another 600bucks or more.. It's just too much for me to bear after the lost of my first phone barely a year ago...very
em se tak..''

Yup, i prayed something like that.
And i knew God heard me loud and clear.

Cuz a few days after that..or like..almost a week.. Josh presented me with a K660i Sony Ericsson. It was like rekindling my lost baby.. Cuz he got me the exact same one.
He knew i didn't like any other except K660i..and it was also the most affordable SE phone among others.
It's sleek,and slim.
Has multiple functions and most importantly, has good quality images! nyehehehe

I kinda knew he was getting me a phone already..and i insisted that i got it myself..since im working and earning thru my e-biz right?
It just didn't feel right to obtain something so pricey from someone else.
I think you guys get what i mean right?
Not something that costs more than half a K......

But all he did was hushed me and told me to just say 'thank you' and accept the gift with an open heart. Haha. Like i have a choice not to keep quiet after that....=P
Trust me, i said 'No' too many times until i think he got fed up? (were you bay?^^)

But all i can say is, i'm really happy and content with my phone. I know it might be a lil' weird to want the same phone when you can explore others..but i guess it's just me.=)
I simply love it~

I just wanna really thank the Lord for answering my prayer.
It's a blessing, and an unexpected one.
I was expecting a phone, but not from the person who gave it to me. =D

But God always works in mysterious ways. His ways are indeed higher than our ways. Praise Him for that. If everything worked according to our plans, then it might not have turned out as well. God knows BEST.

Thank you Jesus.
Thank you Josh dear. =)
I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!

Prom Goes Green 2009

*****

On a separate note, here are the updates on my colourful life! haha

- Went to 3K inn bazaar at Subang Jaya with Laura Tang! =D
We make an unlikely pair but we do share a lot in common. Especially our penchant for fashion and shopping! haha
And i must say it was my privilege to go out with her on her birthday! (on the 20th last Saturday)
Happy Belated Birthday dearest Laura~
I didn't know it was her birthday till she told me in the car.

And right here, i wanna take the Lord again for having his favour to surround us like a shield! (Psalm 4:12)
Cuz we got stopped by a traffic police who hinted twice that he wanted a bribe from us in order to let us go...But to cut the long story short, everything worked in our favour (including the fact that it was Laura's bday that day!) and we were released without an RM 300 saman nor with bribing. (Which would have been an easy way out but we know bribing is wrong.)
In most cases, this would have been near impossible, but by God's grace, the officer really let us go!
What a miracle!
I knew i had to testify about this.=D

It just reminds that when we're faithful to the Lord, His hands will always be upon us~

- Went for KBU's Prom 2009. Josh's final prom as he is graduating this May/June. =)
Really had tons of fun fellowshipping especially. Although i knew no one there except his friends.haha.
Prom goes GREEN this year, in support of mother earth. =)
Surprisingly no one wore green dresses.

I wore a bright purple mermaid-pleated dress from my e-boutique,
Dr.Pizzicato =) *click click*

Love it to bits!
Somehow..these days.. im really into bright candy colours such as emerald, hot pink, turquoise, lime, chilli red, and of course oh-so-glam purple!
But classic B&W never fails. =) not to mention white has always been my fav.hehe. Makes one look so ethereal and innocent.=)

Love the pleated designs.
And the best part, it doesn't cost a bomb like Valentino gowns. *wink*

Lost my phone. =(

Lost my phone yesterday at Tesco Cheras... =(
And it's the 2nd time losing my phone. *sighs* The first one was pick-pocketed in monorail..

A phone which i've used for barely a year is now in the hands of i-dunno-who....
The thing that baffles me the most is i don't even know how i lost it.
As bizarre as that sounds, i only realized it was gone when i searched for it minutes later and couldn't find it.
I was with Josh at that time so he called my number, and a man picked up. That was when i knew it was.........

But reality couldn't sink in until much later.. Cuz i just couldn't accept the fact that my phone was lost! And a brand new one too.
This time i really couldn't help crying cuz it was my second time for goodness sake.
I'm seriously worked up about it.
It wasn't that bad the previous time...But if you lose for phone for the 2nd time, you'll know how terrible that feels. What more one that is used for less than a year. =/

When i finally calmed down, i could only say i wish the man (who most probably have picked it up from the pavement) that he'll be blessed.
As naive as this might sound, i actually smsed him to beg for the phone. Twice. I even said i'll give him RM 200 in exchange. You never try you never know what the outcome might be right?
But all he did was slammed and shut my phone. Typical.

How i wish people in society can be more honest.
If i were to pick up a phone and receive numerous calls and smses from the rightful owner, even if i'm sooo tempted to keep the pretty phone, i'll still relent in the end.
Afterall, its NOT my phone right.
I'll put myself in the person's shoes and think how overwhelmed he/she might be. That knowledge itself is enough to drive me to return the phone.
Or if that's not enough, my conscience will make me feel really guilty.

But i guess in society today, there are more baddies than goodies. Even the Bible says we're ''living in the days where evil prevails''.
It only tells me (and you) that we should really be vigilent wherever we go.

Until i've redeemed my previous number, i'll be using my digi number for now...
And i seriously dunno what phone to get next....it's like i've exhausted all my ideas for a good phone.....(my first was a Sony Ericsson K 610i, then a K660i..sob)

Maybe a Blackberry? =P
Or,
probably not.
If that gets stolen, i'll probably never buy phones ever again.
