(139:1) O LORD, you have searched me and you know me.
(139:2) You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
(139:3) You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
(139:4) Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O LORD.

I'm seeing this omnipresent and omniscient aspects of God at play during this trip. For one, I'd actually SMSed Aunty Lily asking her for Bel's Aussie hp number (was considering surprising her), and guess what? Aunty Lily and Uncle Peter are in Perth too, and they just arrived on Mon midnight! And when I met with them first (to plan for how I can leap in and really shock Bel), Aunty Lily shared with me that apparently, she had an impression to pray for me during last Sunday's prayer intercessory meeting. Coincidence? I don't think so. Perhaps the Lord has preordained me to be here for a reason... Or either that, He's sent His servants all the way here just for my sake. Hehe. But really, even here He is here with me. So good and reassuring to know that...

So yep, got to catch up with Bel and Uncle Peter over tea in the late afternoon (Aunty Lily was at a meeting), but more with Bel, and I think it was a timely chitchat.

But meanwhile, the rest of the day was spent just trawling the streets and shoreline of Perth, enjoying the cool weather (so must walk as much as possible mah). Perth feels like Lund actually - there are students EVERYWHERE, especially Asian ones. I think I blend in perfectly, which is good for me who wants time off. Don't want to be too attention-grabbing too (like it was in Turkey - I think I was the tourist attraction there).

Cirque du Soleil was in town!

K am going to have an early night. My left eye is strangely red, hoping to sleep it off...

(I actually did take a picture of my eye...but on second thoughts, I'll spare you all the nightmare :P)
