From the land down-under!

And so..the parents have left..man, i kinda miss them right now...but we sure did have loads of fun when they were here in Perth. Well, at least they did! (classes for me started on the actual day i stepped foot on Perth land)

Introducing (drumrolls pleaseeee....) my folks...

Well so, what have they done in the one week they were here? They did loads!!! And they went to Swan valley and its famous Winery! I want to go too!!!

oh well... apart from their seperate tour, we did of course meet up pretty often too. We had loads of fun eating, sight seeing and of course SHOPPING! Man, i didn't know dad was such a shopaholic!! Never judge a book (in this case, a face) by its cover eh! =) way to go dad! I really thank God they were here...for two great reasons.. Firstly, we were able to pray and have devotions as and when we could.. and Secondly, the amount of daily necessities (food esp.) they got me.

As for me, i had loads of fun in the past week! Honestly, i'm starting to grow to love this place!! Thank God too for a B-P church in Perth.

BPCWA really reminds me alot of my own church back in Singapore, Galilee Bp Church! Standard Bible-Presbyterian style (perhaps thats why my folks especially dad insisted i go to BPCWA). I had intentions of going to another church (i still do.. a little. sheesh) basically because i wanted a new change of enviroment, a new break from the norm.. but i think the Lord wants me here in BPCWA, because HE has allowed me to bring a new soul to Him. First sunday in Perth and the Lord has used me already! Also, i appreciate the people in BPCWA, who are really sincere and warm..!

These are just some bits of my very short but exciting journey in Perth... of course there is so much more to write, but if i tell you everything, i can perhaps write a 10-page essay! to sum it all up.. i only have three words to describe life here, that is; I LOVE PERTH! haha.. really, i thank God for paving all ways for me to be in this VERY hot but beautiful land!

Okie, i gotta go.. for dinner! i cooked dinner today! and man, it tastes YUMMY! i mean, SERIOUSLY, i did not know i could cook so well! haha...

after that its back to the books... loads to read...
