The last three words of Isaiah 43:1 says, "You are Mine." His words are like wedding vows. I am yours and you are mine. To keep, forever.
Eternity. That's what we're living for. This life is only preparation for greater things and times to come.
Am currently stuck in the car on the way to Ikea and not relishing sitting down in the middle. I keep sliding down the seat like it's a slippery bank or something. I can't sit on the left side like I normally do 'cause we picked Josh up from MidValley and he had to hop in quick.
What do people always unwillingly get caught in on a daily basis? Traffic jams. My butt is getting sore. Not to mention my knee, which Jared is currently resting his chin and entire body weight on.
Well, we've got to make the best of every situation. I'm trying by reading the Bible on my iPod touch. Most of us don't realize what a privilege it is to have a Bible handy when we need one. Millions (billions?) of individuals have fought in our stead so we could have the precious gift we do today. Yet, sadly we let it go to waste on so many occasions.
Everyone in the car is now falling asleep or already asleep. A usual occurrence in traffic jams that transpire during the evening/at night. Our borrowed (ancient) Mercedes S Class is kind of like a dinosaur. Big, bulky, and sort of ugly. But no one's complaining. At least we HAVE a car. :)
Dan is now clinging onto my arm and possibly drooling on my shoulder. I'll see you in a bit...
Update! My brothers have now labeled me a female Sheldon. Reason being I always sit in the left seat in the back of the car ever since, well, forever. I never sit anywhere else and I feel off whenever I'm not in my usual place. Haha. Funny. My brothers have all gotten used to it and never get into the car on my side. LOL. They have been trained. :D I especially dislike riding shotgun, contrary to popular belief that everyone out there loves riding shotgun. Feels extra, extra weird. And no, there are no logical reasons for my personal preference of seating.
Had yummy tomato vegetarian pasta and of course, meatballs at Ikea. (I personally think Ikea is the cheapest place you can go for pasta.) My family... we go to Ikea for the gastronomic rather than the shopping experience. We've been eating their meatballs for a LONG time.. I remember when I was a little girl and Ikea was still an outlet in 1 Utama. Their restaurant was a tiny, tiny little cafe. We always had problems with seating but there was no where else to get those meatballs. So year after year after year we've been making sporadic visits to get our fix. :) Ikea food is delicious and cheap considering the quality and cleanliness of their food, imho.
Oops, we're home. Yes, I did type all this out on my tiny iPod touch QWERTY keyboard (not in landscape mode). Takes practice but you get used to it. Just turn off auto-correction and you'll be excellent in no time at all.

Hahaha... Your car is Super class. It ain't ugly. It's going to be vintage. I could see the front of the car swing left and right when I sit in front passenger seat. Very unusual sight for a MyVI driver :0.
HAHA. But I still think the best word to describe the car is "dinosaur". >:)
barney?

@Andy Ong No.
@Barney Dawn Someone needs to kill the person that introduced you to HIMYM. LOL.
@Daniel Kong That was for dramatic effect. :D Plus, how would you know? You were only about half-conscious the whole time.
