To die is gain

I ate noodles and meefen at 2 for lunch; odeh odeh for tea at 4; mee rubus and nasi goreng for dinner at 5; bread and eggs for supper at 11. my most irregular day ever.

This week had been pretty good. A lovely time of rest after the mid terms were over.. no deadlines near enough to give me stress, no lab reports due, no tests. wow, incredible! Lately, I've observed that more people seem to be passing away, not sure why; maybe it's indeed so; maybe i've become more aware of death then i used to be. Death - it's a funny thing. Some people mourn and dwell in sadness all the days of their lives; yet others, though sad, celebrate another's passing / reunion with his Savior. To me, i don't think i've yet to truly understand what Death might be; nor have i completely absorbed what has happened so far - all i know is that to live is Christ, and to die is gain (Philippians 1:21) - who are we to curse God and swear? who are we to determine what our lives might be? As so far, with all that i've been through, i'd say that it's been hard accepting the truth, really difficult being optimistic all the way, and even more tiring to live life as i did before; yet I am placing all my hope in God because Jesus is the only way. I know that with all the ups and downs of life, Jesus is in control. Hallelujah!

On a less moanful note, i'm really enjoying lab work! :)
