whoaa.. my 4th semester in rmit has finally ended with effect on wed, 5/11. The exam period this time round was really horrifying. i seriousily do not how i managed to cope it other than thinking that it is God's grace that has been sustaining me through out. My dad got send to the hospital via ambulance just before my 1st paper. I fell really ill just before my second paper, and in the midst of my 3rd paper, i was coughing as though i was gonna faint in the examination hall. Despite all this, God is still good.. He addde strength unto me, and even gave me friends who encourage by reminding me that there is no problem bigger than God. As long as we trust and are willing to commit, there will be a miracle. In my case, its really a miracle man. Now, I really hope to get results that glorifies and honours Him.

Btw have you guys read the book, "The five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman. It is the international bestseller book that reveals how different people express love in different ways. There are mainly 1) Quality time 2)Words of affirmation 3)Gifts 4)Acts of service 5)Physical touch. It basically tell us that by knowing all these, we
could express our love to another person in a much more effective manner; in a way that means volume to them.
I happened to take the "which love language are you" quiz on facebook.. here is what it says of me.. haha..
You are a person of gifts. This means you are most touched when people give you a gift, because it means they were thinking of you when they bought, created or found what they give you. You see life as a gift, and it's things in it!. Gifts and giving is your emotional tool and you will therefore also use this to connect to other people. Gifts are a great way of communicating, but when someone else you love doesn't necessarily talk the way you do, it doesn't mean they don't love you. What would be their primary love language?
The downside of giving gifts without talking or doing things for someone else, may come across as a quick fix to escape building a further relationship. Try to put in some effort by finding out what the other person's language is, too. A good conversation or spending time with them can be a gift to them, more precious than box of chocolate!
One last point to mention is that God also communicates in your love language. He uses gifts, too. He says in the Bible that He loves you, that you are the apple of His eye, and that He wants you to come to Him and talk to Him. He loves you and gave Jesus (God Himself in human form) to bridge the gap caused by the fall of sin through which we cannot fully obey the law He gave us. He made the solution through Jesus, and when accepting Him, you'll accept God Himself, Who loves you, and wants to communicate with you. Jesus is the greatest Gift, Who gives salvation FREELY to whoever accepts Him. Praise God!
hmm pros and cons..
So whats your love language?
