and YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS as the title goes. GOODBYE MY BELOVED BENGAWAN. i will remember the banana cakessssssss i had there. lol.
oh yeah, and those aunties. like seriously. =/
God was very nice to me in this 2 weeks of work. kept sending me to and fro the west side of Singapore so that i could take a break from all the standing and have some time on my own on the train. :) on some train rides, i slept. on some others, i stoned. but on some, i was thinking to myself. how did You ever do that? how did You ever hear my prayers so quickly? how did You know that im feeling so sian about everything. cuz You were right beside me. lol. it must have been that case right? i take heart that God is with me, every moment of my life. this 2 weeks of work revealed to me how close God was to me and how he cared for me in every little details.. thank You.
and i have a small testimony to share. i shall be arty-farty and name it,
' the love of a father '
alrights. one day, as i was working at bengawan's, wearing the auntie uniform. then my phone rang. but i ignored it as i couldnt pick it up. only after all the customers were gone, i went to the toilet to return the call. it was from my dad. initially, i thought it was about some instructions on where to go for CNY this year.. but he offered to give me some money to buy CNY clothes instead. but i was like. 'HUH. cannot lah.' cuz i already got 100bucks from him at the head of this month because of my bboy class. and i alr regard that as my CNY clothes money and a week before the call he gave me an extra 20bucks to buy some random stuff.. so i seriously don't intend to get anymore money from him cuz i know he isn't really rich to start with.. but he insisted on giving me the money!! so i asked him where his money came from. so he told me it was his bonus. he only had 200bucks as bonus and he's thinking of giving 100 to me and the other 100 to my bro. so im like. seriously you don have to give it to me. and the evil side of me blurted out to him that seriously, he doesnt have to give to my bro either. since he always shouts at my dad whenever he calls him up for a chat. i told my dad that even if he wants to give, he shud give him less. =/ LOL but my dad just told me matter-of-factly that both of us are his childrne, there's no way that he can give me 100 but 50bucks for my bro. he says that he cannot show him favourtism like this although my bro hasnt been the nicest son on earth.. so i suggested that he keeps some of the 200bucks for himself instead. but he said it's okay, we are his children that's why he's giving us the money................................... and the call ended with him joking around saying that im his 'investment', hopefully a share that has high market value with high returns. HAHA. yes i will, dun worry.
after i hung up, a feeling overwhlemed me. isn't our heavenly father like that as well? He gives His all to us, just because we are His children.. and He shows no favourtism to anybody. it's really amazing how God blesses me. other than the money i've gained, i learnt an impt lesson. :)
God never shortchanges you.
