I miss the Australian accent!

Since coming to Japan, I have met many Americans, but have only met one Australian. Hence have been hearing a lot more American accents than the Aussie accent. Just now I was listening to a sermon from Hillsong, and while listening to it, not only the message was great, but the Australian accent made me felt excited! The Australian English was very pleasing to my heart~

I love American accent, but Australian accent makes me think of Australia! It feels homey and makes my heart glad to hear.

Wow, I didn't realise that I am already missing Australia until I hear the Australian speaking to me~~

This is rather funny. Logically, this shouldn't be the time to miss Australia but to enjoy every excitement that is in Japan. However, I think I am feeling a bit "home sick" already^^

Thanks to my trip to Japan. Until I came to Japan, I didn't know how much I love Australia.

Japan is also fabulous! It's the country I have been longing to come, and now I am so thankful for this privilege to be here.

I love you Australia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From lovely Japan
Quick update:
School started on Monday, classes have been great so far, besides not yet used to the strict rules regarding class attendances , manners and long contact hours (doubled from my faculty at Melb). Though the subjects I am taking are very interesting, especially those on Japanese studies. I can't wait to learn more abot Japan and its history and culture more in depth. Hoping that my Japanese improves faster~

I think your feelings for Japan is somewhat similar to my feelings for Philippines :P.Though not everything is great, very grateful to be here.
I miss the Australian accent too. I think they sound cool, but I hardly ever hear it these days. Australians are pretty rare in US and Philippines..

When I am weak,then I am strong

Today's message reminds me to acknowledge my weakness as a human being and recognize my need for my source, my provider and my ABBA FATHER. God doesn’t need us to be strong in ourselves, our abilities, or our know-how! Proverbs 3:5,6 exhorts us,  Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and  He will make your paths straight. Often times I thought I was capable to do things well without anyone's help. However, the fact is--there are so many things in life I can't control. There had been occasions I knew I could do nothing to change the situation. During those times I was again reminded that we humans are so weak and helpless without God. What can we do then? 1. We acknowledge our weaknesses. Let’s admit our limitations. Without Christ, we are weak — and not just a little weak — we’re totally helpless and hopeless. But believer, we are not without Christ! 2. We rely on His strength! We are able to s...

Thank you Nana

Thank you that you are reading my blog!! It is such a great encouragement for me that someone is actually reading my blog and told me that she was encouraged by it!! I feel so loved~That's why I have the big heart on the right^^ I am not very confident with writing, but I often feel like sharing my life experiences with people and reflect my life through writing. I guess blogs are probably the fastest and easiest way to share with people all around the world. Today I have changed the template of my blog and have made a header for it!! I am so excited and am quite happy with the colour. I hope you like it, too..... Please keep reading my blog and leaving comments to communicate with me. THANK YOU!

Last minute

I think a lot of us like to do things in the last minute. I am organising for a group of 14 people including me to go to the football match. After all the hard work, two weeks ago I finally managed to book the tickets for everyone, however, yesterday some people told me they can not go today. This is annoying because everyone said they were going, but just the day before they tell you that they cannot go. Even though the tickets were free, but there are still a lot of people wishing to go but do not have tickets. They are taking this for granted. Moreover, if they told me a few days earlier, I might be able to find people who may be interested to go. Through this experience, I learn to be more reliable and trustworthy when promising someone for something. If there is anything urgent, I will try to tell the person as soon as possible, but NOT last minute. I admire people who work as an event organiser, who constantly have to face all these last minute frustrations!
