love left yest aftn. a weird feeling of being separated for the first time since we got married. i know it's temporal but it still felt a little strange. haha. one thing tho, i would be able to meet up with my friends w/o feeling like i need to think abt how to make sure he doesnt feel leftout. so far, the plan is to meet irene for lunch tmr, dinn with kexin, abby..stay over at kexin's one of the weekdays and meet qzhu for dinn tue. of coz there's also gg for bible study one more time with akuou on fri. =)
perhaps i'm happy with the break from my in laws. i'm being frank here, ok? it's been stressful. esp with my FIL. i will always remb what guohong said abt rlshps taking time to build and develop. twin also said that to me. things have improved tremendously with my MIL as well as with love's younger brothers. it hasnt been easy and God has just been gracious. i know the next best thing both love and i can do is praying for their salvaions. =_ it's not just abt "easier" communication (or life for us) but more that they too, will experience the goodness and love from our Creator. of coz FIL wasnt too happy that there were pple there to see love off - my parents and kexin. sigh. that "selfish" part of him made me feel v uncomfy.. still, he has every right to show his disdain - i showed mine too, twice, when i was unhappy abt the things he did.. so i guess perhaps i'm worse? who am i to judge hor?
pastor stuart emailed to ask when i'll be back in boston. he nominated me to be the chairperson of this sub-com to oversee the upcoming international FOCUS event where alums from every country (those who have attended and served at our church in Boston) will be back to attend some conference. it sounds like a huge task and i'm not exactly sure if i'm up to it. still praying and not sure how to really respond. to some extent, i have this strange feeling that my 'yes' will somehow tie in with my visa app response. hmpf. trust the Lord?

grandpa is in CCU. one level lower than ICU. went to see him just now - he didnt look too good. can see that he has great difficulties breathing. seemed in pain each time he breathed and boy, such wards are boring. u just face a glass door (which only opens when you press the button) and watch nurses buzz by. no tv. no newspaper. no nothing. i wonder if it makes you feel worst.

just finished a 2-hr call with qz. it's always good catching up. next person i plan to call is twin. but not tonight.. it's already 12mn. God always has His purposes.. what is it this time.. ??
