Back on the roads again
Not as a predestrain or passenger, but as a driver! *GASP*
I have not driven a car in 8 years. All thanks to my poor driving skills which led to a near-accident shortly after I passed my driving test. The near-accident left me with a bad phobia and hence I avoided driving like a plague. However, with the prospect of staying in the suburbs of Sydney in the near future and with shops far away from where we may stay. I cannot avoid driving anymore. *GLUP*
Went for my first drive in 8 years on Sunday. I prayed that God will keep us safe. Dad sat next to me as I drove, and by the time we headed by home, his face was green and said he seriously needed to eat some 惊风糁 (herbs that will ease anxiety). I took some turnings too fast and nearly hit a bus. Still, I thank God for keeping us safe... =)
Roger failed his driving test recently. God willing, he will take his test on the 5th Jan 07, a few days before we depart. Please pray that he'll get his license so that there be one less thing to prepare for when we get to Sydney. Pray too for me that I drive better and safer. Thanks!

Sydney in another 2 months?
*Faint*
Trying to relocate in 2 months is rather out of this world. Tentative plan is to reach Sydney on the 8th Jan 07. We're still waiting for the college's acceptance. Only then can we proceed to do the other admin, eg. apply for student visa, rent out our flat, buy tickets etc etc....
We told our parents of the news, they have their concerns about us living there but they are getting used to the idea and have been trying to get involved with the preparations. We're really thankful for the generous help given by them and our siblings-in-Chirst, in Singapore and in Sydney. From checking out apartments to gathering winter clothes for us. We are truly blessed.
Please pray for us that we may make wise decisions. Pray too for our parents that they may come to trust in Jesus as Saviour and Lord.
