Happy Convocation 2024

 

Graduation day for Clara and Weiyu, 26 July 2024

On 26 July 2024 I attended Clara and Weiyu's convocation at NTU.  Before the day, I looked at the invitation and knew that I need to wear formal clothes.  I realized that I did not have beautiful formal clothes to wear.  I also need to buy gifts for them.  On that week, I went Causeway Point to do some shopping.  First, I went to SK jewellery to buy a gift for Clara.  Then I went Metro to buy clothes for myself.  I also bought a pair of shoes and a bag.  Everything was new!

Everytime when I go Metro to shop for clothes, I got nothing because there was nothing I like.  However on that week when I need to buy clothes, I had got to purchase two pieces of dress that I had liked.  There happens to be a promotion for Kurt Wood clothes.  Buy 2 and get 10% off.  And it so happens that there were XL and XXL size for me.  Most important of all, I love the materials.  The clothes were of my favourite colours.  Even the Kipling bag, I purchased at discounted price also.  It was my favourite colour and material too.  Everything was perfect for that week -- even when I choosed the perfect gift for Clara also.  

My perfect outfit for Clara and Weiyu's Convocation

Everything that I have and including my children and family, I thanked Jesus and God for showering me with love.  I am very contented with what I have now.

I feel so blessed.  Let me count my blessings:  

1.   I have a mother.  

2.  Everyday my mother prepared delicious food and the family gets to eat them. Look at the dining table laid with food.  Aren't they beautiful?  I get to eat my meal with my mother!  On the dining table there were 4 dishes prepared by mum and 2 plates of SongHe white rice.  

3.  I have 3 perfect children. 

4.  The family has a roof over the head.  

5.  Our family members are all healthy.  

Though I had lost our beloved pet and lost my husband and my father, I still feel blissful.  If I had not been converted, I would have no hope and I would be very sad now.  The old me always felt that everyday is the same, nothing new... 

Give thanks with a grateful heart

 

Psalm 106:1 - Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. 

Philippians 4:6-7 -- Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Dora's Pets

Just like human beings needed a pet to entertain them at home, Dora also has her own pets.  Her pets are the two little terrapins.  She always laid beside the tank to look at the terrapins.  Sometimes she would even touch them and at times also drink their water.

It is so good to see the pets are living well and Dora showing affection to the terrapins.  Sometimes she would also sit on the chair to watch the terrapins.
