Portside Wharf

I've been spending  a morning a week at Portside lately. It's because I purchased a really cheap voucher for 4 visits to Elle Bache. Note to whoever is interested, Elle Bache is good at skincare but really below average for massages. Go for the skin.They do it quite well. They diagnose skin conditions and get rid of black heads.  Don't go for any massage treatments. 

For Massages, click here. Found the massage therapist Maureen to be very good. Feel like going back soon. But unfortunately, everything I've gone to is in the Nortside, because of work. Sigh. Can anyone reccomend decent massage therapists in the Sunnybank, Garden City, Eight mile plains area?

Took Peggy out for breakfast for her birthday. Wish I could have done a bit more actually. Could have sent her to her interview earlier on. But I was super tired from work, cooking and recording all week-end. 

I think I'm learning to trust God a bit more now. I've observed my own life and the timing of God in giving me things. When I don't push for things, and I keep trusting Him, he introduces things at the right time, when I'm ready to deal with it. I prayed for a steady job for 2 years while I was still in uni. I got it after that 2 years [3rd year uni] and found that I was just strong enough to cope with it without breaking down with the load of ministry, uni and work. If the teaching job had come any earlier, I doubt I could have done it. 

Furthermore, I've been wishing for a car. But honestly, I also knew I was not ready for the resposibility of owning it, therefore I didn't pray very hard. I was overwhelmed by the potetntial responsibility doing all the nitty gritty things like driving to new unfamiliar places, rego, insurance, servicing, petrol, and most of all, ferrying people around. Last year, God told me to give the car to Him, which I did. Now, He has provided in a way that I can at least handle without feeling too overwhelmed. I still need to take on new responsiblities. Driving to new places all the time can be scary and stressful, especially without a GPS and I don't read maps that well. I have started to ferry people around. But the car was provided in such a way that when I do get my own, I think I'll be a lot more ready and toughened up. It's a good feeling not to be scared of Brisbane roads anymore.

I think, with this, I need to trust Him that when He provides my career opportunities, when He provides a life partner, it will be when I am ready to take it on and not crash and burn. 

Thank you God.
You always know best.
I shouldn't be surprised. But You do have my best interests at heart after all.
Love ya :)

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

There is still a chance for the 71,849 single men

I opened my facebook profile and LO and BEHOLD, I saw a string of comments, wall comments and msgs in my inbox congratulating me about my 'not-single anymore status'. Why? Because I decided to remove the 'single' listing on my Facebook profile. I merely didn't want to post it up anymore. A whim that resulted in... HILARIOUSNESS! Here are a couple of samples: "Charis has been woozy since thursday, is it luvvve??" "huh? o_O? is there something i don't know??" "so when u going to belanja us all makan??? >. "heh.... really!?....there are 71,849 single men in brisbane who will be very dissapointed... very.." "is this for real .. if so, congrats charis :-)" "Hey great news to hear, Congrats loh! By the way who is the lucky Guy?" " Hey. No longer single? Share some news. ;) " Man o man!
