mission impossible became possible

A short pencil is better than a long memory.

Before my senses fail me someday,
before I choose to end up in the self- deprecating mode sometime in my life ,about the inperfections I know about myself,

i better pen down and substantiate how faithful and humorous my God is.


About a month ago, I was doing pre-exam preparation in school.Came across a girl who carried herself with a nice dress. I liked it alot, but thought it uncomfortable for the girl to share with me where she bought it because of "copy-right issues" especially between girls. So, I just simply gave up the idea of asking. I tried to search for the dress at bugis, but it was a futile trip.


A day prior to my exam, I remember watching news on channel 8. While they were in the midst of reporting, they film part of toa payoh central which they indicated at the corner of the screen. And guess what??!I saw the dress on news and i jumped for joy!!My sis commented :"crazy".

After exams ended few days later, i went to search for the dress. Feeling a little excited, but also lost at the same time because I didn't know where exactly to start searching from. After perambulating the streets of shop houses in Toa payoh central , I still could not find it. I kinda gave up and settled down for a "expectedly mouth-drooling bowl of lor mee". To my disappointment, it was vinegar noodles more than lor mee. -_-''' However, my tummy was filled, so hungry woman wasnt angry woman afterall.

I was thinking to myself: " maybe this-fashion might have, because they usually mimic apparels from all around." I text my sis for the nearest biggest available this-fashion outlet. In the end, I answered my own question and headed to Ang Mo Kio central, weaved in and out the mega stall till I look as sneaky as a thief. haha.. Derived at the same destination- cannot find!

I was about to head to school to look for my sis. So i made AMK hub the last station of my search. Scanning through, feeling cynical about finding the dress.I prayed but didnt really know how to, just told Him how much i liked the dress(anyhow it's just a simple dress) and it was perfectly alright if i didnt own it. Even before we pray, He already knows the desire of our hearts.

After having walked a significant great distance that afternoon, started water-parading until finally needed to go to the ladies. That was also when I came to the final shop.
Was comtemplating whether I should do a quick potentially futile search and head to the ladies upstairs because the one I was at were packed. I walked in and retreated so quickly that the salesperson who wanted to recommend dresses got rejected even way before she could complete her promoting.Just when i was about to turn and walk out, I SAW THE DRESS I LIKED!!!let me say once more..I FOUND THE DRESSS!! Seriously thought I was dreaming. It amazes me because I had no definite place to start with and just when I had lost all hope and had no more expectations of finding it, it appeared.

God is really good to me.

Afterall, there wasn't a need for me to have this dress. It is a bonus.=)
