As of today, I've finally completed my first ever semester at uni (well technically trimester for me). After two weeks of exams, I'm finally on holidays. To be honest, nothing equals the satisfaction of finishing a VCE exam. It's almost ridiculous how chill uni exams for me; not that I ace it, but there fact that I only need to pass. So I have essentially left 12 weeks of work to learn in the span of a few days. The whole term felt a bit like a holiday to be honest ahha!

2012 is a big year for me:

- I've started uni and made some amazing friends
- Started gymming regularly. It makes such a big difference
- Going to Hillsong Conference from 1-6 July. Genuinely looking forward to it
- Fungus camp 2012: "Imagine". I pray that God will move in a big way this year

Staying away from home has been a huge change this year. It really helps me to appreciate my parents and friends more when I don't get to see them for most of the week. Sometimes we just need to take time out and really reflect on our lives, and look at things from an objective perspective.

As a Christian, I find true purpose in life through God. I can't imagine how I would live without Jesus. Who is our anchor in the storms of life? What gives us the hope to go through each day? Who teaches us love and humility? The only one that I can think of is God.

My mentor Bryan Seow really challenged me with something: "imagine if we could think about Jesus every moment of the day". How awesome would that be! To be honest, I've been living life on my own strength and leaving the last 10 minutes of my day for God.

In any relationship, we talk and we listen. God is indifferent. So often we just read the bible and pray and that's it, but we forget about the most crucial part: listening to God and waiting on him. That's something that I'm gonna implement into my life.

Anyway, just blogging my mind
Laters everyone!
