Bye 2016

In a few days time, 2016 is coming to an end. Time flies, one year has passed!
Well, what have I done this whole year? (flashback)

January
- Got to know more about my new SV, was offered a job as an RA

February
- Started work as RA under my SV, thank God for the privilege that He has given me. Celebrated CNY and visited Kim's family with some other PKV-ians

March
- It's been a year since Elphis CG started! Wohoo, thank God for everyone that He has placed in this CG. Went for TCF AGM, kena dragged by Andrew, it was my first time meeting many new people. Collected data for my RA job (learned many new things). Mdm Roges came to UM! (to checkout postgraduates carnival) 

April
- Collected more data for RA job, had to skip PKV few Fridays. Signed up for Colour run (first time!). Went for Evangelical Bible Study Training in MCKL (my first time there. And WOW! MCKL quite nice). Had my first colour run towards the end of April (managed to escape from all the colours, hehe). We had our Easter production (When dawn breaks)

May
- Quite a hectic month. Had dinner at my SV's place, had Inter CG Games, celebrated TCF Teacher's Day (managed to drag few PKV-ians along, huhu) and started some of my own data collection.

June
-Went through my Seminar 1 (and I passed! PTL), was selected to be part of the Summer Programme in Korea (it took me few days to think about it) and I finally made my decision (YES! I'm going), was made the leader for this programme (in charge of collecting the fee, such huge amount), went to support Eric Tan for his recital.

July
- Exciting month! Celebrated Jack's birthday and dinner with havoc peeps. And I left to Korea for 2 weeks (for the first time ever, I have to be independent, taking care of 26 other people. Went to the airport at 5am, waited for everyone to arrive, panic when some of them arrived late, but wohoo, all of us managed to gather together and we took a picture before boarding the plane. First time flying with AirAsia X, the journey took us around 6 hours plus. Well, so many ups and downs during that 2 weeks stay but I'm thankful to God for helping me out with things. 2 weeks is really short, hoped to visit Korea again next time)

August
- Went to SSMC's Youth production, UnbrOKen, nothing much happened this month

September
- New semester, meeting with new juniors, collecting data for my own research (not easy)

October
- Tim's birthday surprise, CG durian outing (after so long, because we wanna let Park try our Malaysian delicacy, and he loved it!), Convo week and dinner (when will my turn be?)

November
- Tough month, data analysis (being scolded so many times, well, I'm not that pro in academic writing, very challenging)

December
- Christmas month! (Christmas party, CG dinner, hangout with juniors and havoc peeps, exploring the new MRT) and still working on my thesis (still struggling till now, but I believe that I'll be able to finish it by March!)

Above all, I wanna thank God for the many things that He has blessed me throughout the year, all the challenges that He has given me, I've learnt a lot, I've gained new knowledge and experience. My RA contract will be ending soon, well, putting my trust on Him, I believe that He has great plans for me, Looking forward to 2017. May it be another year of peace, love, joy, hope, etc =) I thank God too for the many great friends I have (thank you for always being there for me, encouraging and supporting me thru my toughest times).

CG Dinner

As usual, before the semester ends, we had our CG Dinner, this time, we had it in Skewers SS2. 

 ~Ohana in Elphis CG~

This semester, suddenly the number of guys multiplied (you can see from the picture), last sem I told God, "God, provide our CG with more guys" and tadaa..haha
I wanna thank God for everyone of them in CG. They've been such a great blessing to many people and every week, CG would be so lively and havoc with their presence. 
I pray that each and every one of us will continue to trust in Him and to obey His instructions. Many of us are Postgrad students and we will be entering the working world soon, I pray that we will be the salt and light to the people around us and that in everything that we do, we do it for His glory =)


~Mannequin challenge~

Since it's kinda a trend now, we did one! Brandon the spoiler. LOLS
