Yesterday, we were supposed to submit our assignment at 2.00 hours. I was totallu dying and was about to 'eat' anyone who ever try to disturb my rest. The day before, around 23.00 (if I am not mistaken), Miki called and asked about the assignment - don't remember what. I was pretty 'flying' in the sense of sleeping.. so, I answered everything in rush. BUT, I did mention that please help me to submit my assignment. (click - phone off)
Yesterday morning, Yo me levanto at 06.00 and found my mobile with one misscall - it was Miki at 2.07. I quickly thought maybe he wanted to tell me that everything was alright - yet he did not bother calling me if something had not happened, I supposed. So I continued reading, studying. eating and having my quality time with God. The verse I read was about guarding your mouth. To be exact, the title was: The Power of What You Say.
The verse use to reminds us is
"If you want a happy, good life,
keep control of your tongue,
and guard your lips from telling lies."
(1 Peter 3:10)
keep control of your tongue,
and guard your lips from telling lies."
(1 Peter 3:10)
Today's word from my fave preecher (Joel Osteen and wife) is:
The Bible teaches to choose your words wisely. In fact, God's Word says life and death are in the power of the tongue. That's why you need to be very careful about what you say each day. Your words can either be a positive and encouraging influence, or a discouraging one. It may be easier to grumble and become negative when things aren't going your way, but God calls you to speak words that strengthen and lift others up. When you do that, you will be blessed as well. Today, experience a new sense of joy by speaking positive words of faith and victory over your life and those around you.
I, then, was wondering that
what am I going to say today?!? Am I going to scold somebody?!? I don't think that I would be easily get angry - except to those I knew well...
Teng...teng...teng... teng... until 12 times - means 12.00 noon
I was on the way to the tram halte and thought that it's time to ask Miki.
(I guess by this time you can guess what has happening)

My assignment was not submitted. Why? He did not know (or realise) to do so, in which I had mentioned it for about 3 times.
I was so pissed off!!!
I was so angry!!!
I was about to slap or kick sb!!!

Yet, I chose to put down the phone and went back home to send the assignment via email - to date I dunno if they accept (still) my late submission. The only words come out from my mouth was 'keterlaluan' - which literaly means: echt (Dutch) - not sure what was in English. Maybe 'excessive' or to be exact is unacceptable.
I went to school with two option.
I forgave Miki before he said sorry... and I am laughing about it. Besides, from those three assignementsI have made two already. So, maybe this time, some other people could make use of this opportunity.
See how amazing scripture is. He knows way before you know what going to happen.
The funny thing my friend says (text):
"that's good. I have never seen your reaction when you were upset, but considering your character (or type of people) you could be very scary. Congratulation! Learn from your mistake (sort of)" ~translated from Indonesian~
I win. I conquer the battle with Him. I am glad.
Lesson to learn:
You choose your day... ruin it or laugh it... yet it's your life that you are going to ruin or spice up.
I went to school with two option.
- Ruin my day
- Laugh about it
I chose the second one
and
I could not thank more to Him

~Miki feels guilty and buys me dinner - I have to admit he is smart, my weakness is in food~
