On this day, I arrived back late at midnight, after the preparation for Vivace and staying back in the library to use the internet.
I was locked out of my grandma's home as the door was shut tight. I knocked a couple of times but there was no answer. Not wanting to disturb my grandma, I decided to sleep outside.

The Lord has opened doors for me to go down to live with my grandmother! Thank you all who have prayed for me...
A start in the new school term, many new experiences and new challenges coming ahead for me.
These were the stuff my grandma kept..
in the toilet..

(the cleaning process was very significant.. I told my grandma that she can put the bitter past behind her and look forward to a new life of hope =p)
My grandma prepared breakfast for me. It was porridge with eggs, TOO SWEET... (she has cataract in the eye and can't see properly the amount of ingredient she adds) but I forced it down my throat anyway. Thank God who sustained my stomach.. (including the overcooked rice for Sunday's dinner)
I had a chat with my grandma before leaving for school that Monday morning. Again she warned me a lot about people's heart and intentions. She had been cheated a lot in the past and is very wary about people. She also warned me against Jesus, who she said is cheating people's money and demanding His followers of money. She then brought up how in her beliefs as a Buddhist there has been no requirement for people to give of their finances. How I wished to immediately stand up for Christ and to explain her misunderstanding and the reason and purpose behind the giving to God! However, I asked her only 1 question "Do you know why I'm here?" and I told her I want to love her.
I hope she'd know one day that God has given His Son for us, and the reason He came is because He first loved us. Beyond the finances, what God wants is our hearts...
I'll get better at blogging in due time... (can see didn't really pen down the experience of cleaning up, dunno how to put in words for now) just to warm up now. Hope to share more of the hope we can have in Christ, especially through this "secret" mission. I'm putting my trust in Him.
