Sunday, 29 June 08

hello all! hahaha. service yesterday was just AWESOME wasn't it :DDD haha.

well, anyway. since today im like craving for shopping but i can't cause i gotta study i decided to tell you all a little something cool! haha. okay, maybe this ain't gonna be coool but likt, whatever? haha. think some of you might have heard me tell you the long story at cell last week, right? hahah..

basically i needed to look for a formal dress for this friday because..

i have to attend a wedding dinner on friday, yes.

so so. i decided to go look at wisma atria because sis says "ZE. max&moore's bound to have some dresses i think".

so went to shop with my mum.

first dress was turquoise and white and i really loved it! BUT. guess what, it was VERY expensive. i couldn't believe it man! how can they set such HIGH prices. inflation? ahh, terrible, sucks.

anyways.

then went to some other shop, nicer dresses more expensive.

everyone says, siggggghs. alisa's shopping trip SUCKS so far.


okay okay.

then went ISETAN and found nice stuff but they're all too.

big.


ohh my gosh.

those i don't like, fit my size. vice versa. have you ever ever met with that before? oh man. just sucks right.


so finally me and my mum were already SO tired. we said we'll look one FINAL time, if not just wear something formal but not thaattt formal as we wanted to (because its a wedding dinner, so yeah).

and we found this nice black dress.


by that time i was so like "woahh this is stupid man! i don't wanna shop anymore". kinda thing. but my mum like KEPT asking me to try it. and some woman came by and was like "aiya girl, why so fussy its just a dress anyway!"

so FINE. i good girl, go try it.

then i realized.

at first i thought its ugly cause its just plain black and its really.

long.

not my taste kinda thing.

but after trying it i somehow realized that hey actually its not bad. its not overly formal but formal and its really nice too, not that "ugly" as i defined it to be


which made me realize

you know sometimes. when we all have our tough times.

i like turning to friends a lot alot. i think they'll understand me. cause they're like me, they're humans and some are feelers , like me too.

then after a while, i realize. they're either busy or away.

they can't help me and they're "being there" for me is limited at times.


even when they can be there for me, sometimes the advice they give doesn't necessarily fit my problem. like it can be really good advice but stuff that might not really be able to help, if you get what i mean.

but when we open up to God right.

He's the only one who can help feelers. thinkers. introverts. extroverts. whatever.
He's the only one who can give us advice that can truely help and fits the problem.


like the lock and key thing in enzymes. some don't fit and don't react. others fit and become catalysts.


when i realized that 2 of my really close friends in school left, thats when i realized friends can't always be there for us all the time.

YES, we need friends. they're an essential ingredient in our life's cooking receipe to make the final outcome successful and tasty. however they're limited also, they cannot always be picking up their phones to hear us rant about our problems, they won't always be tagging our blogs, be on msn..

that point in time, i thought.

HOW?

really. like, just how? God's not a human, like them. would He really understand everything?

but then again, if God didn't understand our problems, i wonder if He'd really place us in those problems in our lives in the first place? i doubt so.


so yeah, it made me realize that we never know how God can help us until we just open our hearts up to Him, let Him come into our lives, our hearts, our minds and just really help us, love us and..yeahh.


and..

after buying the dress i realized, it was 70 bucks. and with a 25% discount, thats 59 bucks.


some kind of meaningful dress that is, haha ;D


alisa.
