Answer to my prayer
So yesterday I was at the CSCC website looking at stuff for my project. For my project, I was looking for ways to reach out to people to help foreign workers so I clicked the volunteer tab. Scrolling down their rather long list, I saw the opportunity to apply to volunteer my services as a graphic designer. In the spirit of job hunting, I clicked, I filled out the application and I submitted. I was a bit puzzled and wondered why I just volunteered my time to an organization I have hardly acquainted myself with. But I did and then I left it to God's will.

lenten redemption
nar pha took half day today. so i was forced to go back with my family after 9am mass. force is the right word, because in my heart i was unwilling. there was no other choice. i have expended all other alternative plans. i felt like a little rascal throwing a tantrum because i couldnt get what i wanted. i was so angry because i felt my precious time with log was being taken, snatched away. it doesnt help that i've promised to make it back for friday sharings but nv have time. of course i had to hide it so that my mom wouldnt feel bad. but when she made me walk to 2 coffeeshops to get fried rice for lunch and both were closed, i lost it. i stomped home and man, was i fuming mad, with one of those major headaches one would get from suppressing anger :/ when i opened the door i was ready to burst into tears. but no, suppress you idiot, i was the able-bodied one. then she chided me for being half-hearted and her self-pitying words tumbled out. then i snapped 'just let me be angry and furious, and it'll go away after a while' and immediately it left and i was sorry. the rest of the day was spent sleeping/lazing, which was good since i hadnt had enough the whole week. god is good. so yes, you wont see me every first week of the month. it still sucks. but i guess if i learn something from it, it wont be in vain.
Hi.
I don't post here very much.
Guess who!
Another clue?
I've been away for a while.
Think you know?
That's right!
It's Alex! :)
Okay sorry, it's 1.19 am and my brain's a little wonky but anywho. I actually began this post on tumblr. Never actually intended for it to be about you guys, but somehow it ended up being so so I figured I'd share it! I wasn't at sharing this evening. Kind of a bummer considering I haven't seen y'all in.. close to 3 weeks? But I had Stations of the Cross in school, which didn't go as badly as I expected so praise God! Hoho.
But anyway, just some thoughts about this week. Between recovering from jet lag, catching up with my work, trying to curry favour with a certain ELL teacher and running 2.4 today, I don't know which has made me the most tired. I've sort of sent myself into a sort of zombified state where my legs just don't want to move anymore and I wanna stay in my bed forever. But despite being dead beat, my mind is somehow wide awake. It's kinda frustrating that my mind and body aren't in sync cuz I can't do what my mind wants me to! Grah! You'll see what I mean in a bit.
Got a call from Andrew a couple of hours back, suspiciously checking up on me. (Btw I retyped the prev sentence about three times because I kept typing "God a call.." haha, hmmm..) haha, then I realised that I haven't actually spoken spoken to him in a long while. In fact, I've been back for a whole week and I haven't spoken to any of you (except Greg, but he doesn't count)(And sorry :( ). Thing is I've been running around so much that by the time my mind wants me to text someone, I can't stay awake long enough to hold a conversation :( I am a sad girl :( I don't even have time to talk to God cuz I fall asleep before I manage to say anything. I don't even have time to go for mass in school anymore because I have projects and make up lessons :( There just aren't enough hours (My eyes are closing as I type this and my brain seems to have stopped somewhere in the middle of the sentence-forming process.) in a day!And it's making me frustrated because there are so many more things that I wanna do but I already feel like the elastic lady from The Incredibles. And I'm only being stretched some more. I'm going to school tomorrow :( I ish sad.
I guess the point of this whole thing is.. what I'm trying to say is that.. I MISS YOU GUYS! And that y'all are not forgotten even though I've so many things to remember! Please text me and say hi during the week, I will be a happy gurl and reply you straightaway! Praise God for the end of a bumpy and thoroughly exhausting week. See y'all on Sunday! <3

Today I received an email, and replied with my portfolio and the lady said this, "You are the answer to our prayers... we were cracking our heads over how to get the design for the promotional materials when your email came in :-)"
It's a funny feeling. It's one of those coincidences I can't really explain without God.
