But I had a good , 2 week semester break. Don't want to talk about exams now, but I'm rather happy to share with you how I started and how I ended my holidays.
1. Sherlock
That's how I begin my holidays lol. My deskmate, Juwie has been telling me how nice and how addictive this series is , and my oh my, how true she was. The minute I watched the first episode of Season 1, I continued to watch until Season 2 and now, I longed to watch Season 3 !!!
I have been a fan of Sherlock Holmes ever since I read the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes , and now with Benedict Cumberbatch in the picture, I am nothing but an ardent fan of his !!! Oh, I love how he portrayed Sherlock, in a modern, versatile yet original and inspiring manner. And of course, the ACCENT ~~~ How I love listening to British accent, it's just too wonderful ! Oh, and of course his famous sidekick, Dr Watson too ! Watching both of them talking on TV is like watching a married couple on TV. I wonder if that's the producers' idea to stir up some " bromance " between both of them. I truly appreciate their friendship. But with all due respect, I hope that Sherlock ends up well and good as a normal guy. I don't mind if he's courting Molly, because she truly deserves him . =) It was somewhat emotional to see Sherlock sacrificing himself for the sake of his loved ones. He is a human, afterall. Awwwhhhhhhhhhhhh
2. Camp
I truly needed a get away from all my reference books and endless tuitions. Having the church camp in Genting View Resort is indeed a wise decision. I was truly blessed by the sermon and God's amazing grace and love. I began to understand more about what we are to do, as children of God and how the Word of God enables us. With God, all things are possible. I am thankful to God that he has spoken to me, and ministered to me during the camp. It's very comforting to know that there's someone who cares for you , and will never reject you, leave you nor forsake you even if everyone does. I slowly began to surrender my burden, baggage to Him, because with my own strength, I will struggle continuously and aimlessly. Sometimes when I think I'm over a person or forgiven a person, but it's not. Forgiveness is one of the greatest gift that one can give to oneself. It opens the door of your heart, ( prison ), and set you free completely . And there's more to life than just focusing on disappointments, and why seek appreciation from the wrong company ? There's a spot in our heart that only our Lord God can fill in.
I pray that God will slowly show me the way, and wisdom on how to be the person that I was fashioned to be. =)
3. Good Wives
What are holidays without at least a good book ??? I have longed to read the sequel of Little Women -
Good Wives !!! I know it's only available in KLCC. Hence , I sought help from my BFF and sister in Christ, Jocelyn to buy for me. And , I never regretted it !! Even though, I knew what was going to happen, I simply enjoyed the book so much ! In fact, Louisa May Alcott is such a good storyteller that , at times I simply hope the story will go on forever and ever. The story continues with the later life of the 4 sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy. Each of them had their own share of story in the book. Meg got married to John Brooke, and had a pair of twins ( Demi and Daisy) , Jo married !!! Lol, she actually married, seriously ! So did Amy ! But poor Beth died towards the end. I love how true the characters are to me. They are not without imperfections, and this book perfectly demonstrated how they struggled , and persevered towards the end. What happened to the charming Laurie ? You'll have to read it yourself !! =)
And I watched the movie " Little Women" too ! It was really nice, but I prefer the book !! =)
The March family
The handsome and sweet Laurie ( Yes, " Batman" he is )
