Spoke to Him before i slept. felt so much better. my heart just calmed down like almost immediately. He is so so good! But i couldn't sleep! toss and turn till like 3 plus!! must be the late nights that's causing this. arrggg! but i guess i'm still gonna sleep late anyway. haha feels more energetic at night. i'm officially a nocturnal animal!!! haha. been long since i blog but i just want to praise Him so much that i'm back to blogging! heezzz..

ok anyway i just want to say the paper turn out to be good. not because i'm good of course but it's Him. no doubts k! i was kind of stuck rite from the start at the 1st page!!! can u imagine! omg! but answers soon started to flow. cos of u know who! haha. it was good and i believe it will be good and it is good! all my papers shall be good!

Why
Nicole Nordeman

We rode into town the other day
Just me and my daddy
He said I'd finally reached that age
And I could ride next to him on a horse
That of course was not quite as wide

We heard a crowd of people shouting
And so we stopped to find out why
And there was that man that my dad said he loved
But today there was fear in his eyes

So I said daddy why are they screaming
Why are the faces of some of them beaming?
Why is he dressed in that bright purple robe?
I'll bet that crown hurts him more then he shows
Daddy please can't you do something?
He looks as though he's gonna cry
You said he was stronger then all of those guys
Daddy please tell me why?
Why does everyone want him to die?

Later that day the sky grew cloudy
And daddy said I should go inside
Somehow he knew things would get stormy
Boy was he right
But I could not keep from wondering
If there was something he had to hide
So after he left I had to find out
I was not afraid of getting lost
So I followed the crowds
To a hill where I knew men had been killed
And I heard a voice come from the cross

And it said father why are they screaming?
Why are the faces of some of them beaming?
Why are they casting their lots for my robe?
This crown of thorns hurts me more then it shows
Father please can't you do something?
I know that you must hear my cry
I thought I could handle a cross of this size
Father remind me why?
Why does everyone want me to die?
When will I understand why?

My precious son
I hear them screaming
I'm watching the face of the enemy beaming
But soon I will clothe you in robes of my own
Jesus this hurts me much more then you know
But this dark hourI must do nothing
Though I've heard your unbearable cry
The power in your blood
Destroys all of the lies
Soon you'll see past their unmerciful lies

Look there below
See the child
Trembling by her father's side
Now I can tell you why
She is why you must die

Suffocated

2007-11-22T11:09:00.000+08:00

Exams Exams Exams. Everyone here faces it. Some goes through it without much feeling. Maybe they are just too good or they just don't care. But most of us face difficulties. I feel so suffocated. So much to do yet so little time. Not enough sleep. In fact i dread sleeping cos whenever I wake up to a new day, I feel that I have 1 day lesser to study. and time really flies (cliche) but it so true... not really in the mood to study as well. Wonder what's wrong. I wanna do well! Fact is everyone wants to so how am i gonna shine?

It's You! You cheer me up. Whenever i speak to You i feel so much better. You light up my life. haha.. Wonder what will happen if You were not there. My worries just go whenever i think of You. I wanna lead a stress free life and work only to rest. Only You can help me fulfill it. Thank You and i'm glad you found me!

KEVIIANS!!

2007-08-04T01:30:00.000+08:00

Wow my hall orientation has finally ended. It was erm... FUN FUN FUN!!! tt's a very simple word but it really means a lot. was really lost when i first came cos i couldn't find anyone who is in the same hall as me. kind of sad and lonely at 1st. but this hall is really different and i mean DIFFERENT! they r really nice ppl and it really makes me feel at home with so many friends around (though we just met like 5 days ago). there r ppl from all over the world be it m'sia, china, mauritius, india, korea etc etc. it just so amazing getting to noe them and u noe tt u have a bunch of international friends.

Orientation has always been like a boring thing mainly games, cheers (shout till lose ur voice) and all the usual things lah. But this orientation is just so different. even the very 1st game ice-breaker is like DIFFERENT. we used real ice and oh man it kinda kick started the fun-filled weeks. though of course there r boring moments like talks but i guess it's inevitable bah. Today i guess was the best and dirtiest. But i enjoyed myself thoroughly! Thanks KEWOC! u guys rock man!

ok and btw i went for computing orientation yesterday (darn missed the chance to go to sentosa with my hall mates) and i kinda regretted it. it seems like they were kind of disorganised. like ice-breaking game were thought of at the spot and erm basically we did nth much except to walk around and listen to talks. the talks were kinda impt esp to someone like me (no computing background) so i apparently had to go but really really regretted it man. ok and 1 thing i'm not happy abt is the way they put ppl on the different groups. when freshies sign up, they can actually choose which group they want and of course u can expect those who noe each other would come together. and hey u got it... they just hang around together in tt group and as for me (didn't actually tot of going to same group as my friend as i was thking i shld make new friends) i was kinda alone with those who is alone as well. din;t really like make MORE friends which i expect i should. haha. once the ice-breakng thing started oh man KEVII just came into my mind. the fun times just flashed across my mind and i had the urge to go back. it's just totally different. it not tt i wanna compare or complain but i thk the compclub gotta do sth abt this man. it just so unorganised and i guess they mainly just plan the overview and did not go further into details. my ogls were kinda like the quiet kind too (ok not all my ogls k) so it was like boring. haha ok ok stop complaining!

gonna go for nus cg orientation tml or rather today... kinda excited and it seems tt it's gonna be real fun cos NCC's activities has always been fantastic. haha.

ok regarding uni studies. feeling quite stress even b4 lessons even started. ok NUS uses this CORS system where u will have to bid for ur modules. it's unlike jc,sec,pri where lessons and classes r all allocated and all u have to do is to attend them. no need to worry at all cos everything is like planned for us already. but in uni it's really time to be independent. we got to use points to bid for the modules we one. so it's like there's a limited quota as to how much tt particular lecture can take and we have to use the point to bid for the tutorial. if demand exceed supply, and u loses the bid, u dun get to do the module! but of course for freshies like us, we shld of course be able to get the modules lah cos they r like CORE modules. if we dun get we can continue for the rest of the years. but i'm still stressed over the modules i gotta take. other than our faculty module we still got GEMS lah, S'pore studies lah and breadth modules... it seems like there's a lot of things to take and 1 thing is if i wanna continue stayinig in this wonderful hall i have to be active and i mean really active! so how m i gonna cope!? seniors say time-management is impt but haven we been hearing this same old thing since we started schooling. we have only 24hrs a day! if we slp 8 full hrs, we'r left with 16hrs. den say abt 6 hrs of tutorials and lectures, we r left with 10hrs. den we nedd time to do our tutorials and revise say 5hrs (which obviously is not enough). we'r left with another 5hrs. lunch dinner breakfast,bathing and things like tt take 1.5hrs. so now left with 3.5hrs. so only 3.5 hrs a day to take part in hall or sch activities. that obviously is also insufficient! ahhh!!!!

uni life= boring + fun + busy + stressful + make friends+ study + study + study! + ..........

actually got lotsa things to share but m really tired. have been slping late and waking early for this week and tml oh i mean today i gotta wake up early as well. but if u wan to noe more i'm glad to share with u! haha anyway dun thk u guys want to know so much also cos i thk my post is long-winded enough already

Brand New Journey

2007-07-18T22:10:00.000+08:00

hmmm... been relatively long since i last blog... kind of lazy to blog and dun wanna just write things tt happened yesterday or today... guess it would be kind of boring haha... had chalet for the past 3 days, enjoyed myself and it had made me really really realised whom r my true friends and sisters. shared many things and really had heart to heart talks. we always seem to have so much things to talk about and it kind of lasted for hours! cool isn't it? it's so amzing how we r brought together and became really good buddies. but now we r all gonna embark on a new journey soon. a new life altogether. although we r going in different directions but our friendship is not because we will always be held close toghether. our hearts are kind of linked and we can really share all our deeper thoughts with each other without much hesitations. how many of such friends can u find? i guess probabilty is relatively low cos most friends around u are usually the ones u have superficial talks with only. i guess i m really lucky and blessed! miches, fang, demeni! really happy to have found u guys. and of course how can i forget u whom i met since kindergarten! (stop guessing! it's you! lol!)

ok now to my main topic for today haha. I can't wait to start my new journey! Finally after rotting for more the 1/2 a year i'm gonna start sch again. to me, sch seems to be a total stranger to me already. i missed the lectures, the tutorials, the assignments, the textbooks, study groups, studying, CCA (especially cos the shuttlebabes rocks!), tests, exams, and etc etc etc... really can't wait to start sch and smell the notes and the textbooks! lol... after my uni life i will no longer have the chance the become a student again.... i'll enter the workforce and be stuck there forever... so i'm really gonna cherish these few years tt's gonna flash pass really really quickly! btw will be staying in hostel and will be moving in next wk haha so excited wonder how it's gonna look like! i'm really really lost and i dun even noe what do i have to prepare and pack... guess i will go over on next thurs to check it out 1st and maybe at least bring some of my clothings over 1st... haha so so so excited... can't wait!!!!!

and most importantly, i'm not gonna start this journey alone cos there are many others who's gonna be there as well AND... i've got Him, Him, Him!!! He's gonna be there with me! wonder what He has prepared for me but i have no worries cos i know everything that's installed for me will be GREAT GREAT GREAT cos it's gonna be filled with his GREATNESS! lol... can wait wait wait....

kind of long-winded for this blog haha... but really m excited lah haha gonna go watch the horror movies i rented for chalet but ended up only watching one... must make my money worth so i better complete them b4 returning! haha

Till the End (Taiwan Drama Dou Yu)
Chen Da Wei

All these precious moments
With you by my side
Must be a gift from heaven
That's holding me all night

I don't know how I found you
I'm thankful that I have
Now that I have a love so true
To hold, to keep, to share

In my heart,
I can no longer hold inside
All of the love I used to hide
I'll always be with you until the very end

In this world, there is no place I'd rather be
You are my life, my soul, my girl
And through it all
I know that you've come to see that
You're the one
Till the end

All my friend around me
Say you'd be gone too soon
Baby, I'm gonna make them see
We've found our way back home

In my heart, I can no longer hold inside
All of the love I used to hide
I'll always be with you until the very end

In this world , there is no place I 'd rather be
You are my life, my soul, my girl
And through it all I know that you've come to see that
You're the one till the end
We'll always be till the end

SHUTTLEBABES ROCKS!

Devil

2007-01-11T22:52:00.002+08:00

"Work sucks today... in fact work sucks almost everyday!"
"Why do i have such a crazy and idoitic boss! He sucks big time!"
"Please God why are you doing this to me? Why muz i have such an illness... why God!"
"i'm broke... i can't even have a proper meal a day... why muz my family suffer with me? they did nothing wrong... God why did you take away my money, my wealth... why are you so cruel!"

When any obstacles or challenge comes into your way, it's always Him that we blame... Him that we curse... Him that we don't believe... Why didn't He help you... What's he doing... slacking on Father's right hand?

But has it ever occur that it was the devil? He put all these obstacles in our life... cause he's jealous... jealous that we have God... jealous that we are so blessed... he's so jealous that he wants to take away our faith in Him, take away our trust in Him, take away all that He has blessed us with...

the devil will place obstacles to make us vulnerable... and it is when we are vulnerable that he can strike, he can harm us... do not fall for his trick... He is always by our side no matter what, where, when, how... Fret not, don't worry cause the devil can't do anything to us for He is with us, in fact He is IN us.. God is good... AMEN!

haha and i want to comment on something... that the devil is erm lacking wisdom... to put it in simpler term... he is actually stupid lah... u see when he put the obstacles to break what we have with God, he is actually making things worse...

let me explain... ...
you see when the devil comes and try to trouble us with all sorts of things, he makes it seem like God is responsible and when this happen we would actually turn away from Him... but it is also the very same trouble that cause us to go to Him for help... when we are in trouble, God usually comes in last (when in fact He is the only one who can solve all problems)... it's when we are desperate that makes us turn towards Him and to ask for His help... and precisely it's because we are desperate that when God solves our problem, our relationship with Him is even stronger.

So isn't the devil dumb?! He is actually "helping" us to forge a greater bond and greater trust in Him. So do not fret nor worry when the devil comes and trouble us for He will remove all troubles and solve all problems!

The Lord is our saviour, our redeemer, our righteousness and our deliverer...

God bless everyone and anyone (of course that includes me!)

Family

2006-12-01T11:52:00.000+08:00

Been a while since i last blog... realise blogger has kind of change and was kind of lost... dunooe wat beta and google stuff...lol

Recently i have been spending lots of time with my family... really lots of time.. and have experience things that i have never really experience in my life...pass few days, i have been at home and since my bros and dad r having their off-days and their girlfriends(future sisters-in-laws) come often... it's really time for us to bond. I really enjoy being with my family and i thk i've got a really great family... i may have whined abt my mum's nagging, my dad and my bros... but this holiday has really allowed me to spend quality time with them... Yesterday we went to the opening of IKEA Tampines... It's been ages since we go out together as a family to shop... All thanks to my bro's new hse and my rotting kitchen cabinets... And today is my dad's b'day... we'r gonna have steamboat at home and i m sure today would be great too!

Friends, do pardon me if i reject your offer to go out together... I just have the urged to stay at home and i want to, for the time being, juz leave my social life aside 1st... it's really a great opportunity to spend time with my family...

Until now, i am still not very use to being a Christian... Having to travel all the way to church... And there's not juz sunday service but there's bible study, caregroup, campus... sometimes i feel tired juz thking of all these and it often clashes with my family outing... making a decision between family and my faith is difficult... also it can take up like nearly half my week... and i still doubt whether Christianity is what i want... Tired tired tired...

But juz yesterday, i realise sth... that Christ has been etched in my heart... I may not be as enthusiastic as my sisters and brothers in Christ... i may not go to church as often and attending the bible study/caregroup/campus... sometimes i even dread going to church... but this does not mean that i dislike being a Christian... i had this weird dream just yesterday... it's difficult to tell u my dream so when i have the chance i will tell the dream in person... anyway i was in desperate help and need... i was kind of like in a killing ground and i really needed help... in the past the 1st person i would call to would of course be my mum... but this time i juz shouted JESUS, JESUS! and i started to pray in tongues... ... reflecting upon the dream... this shows that He is in me already... He is in my heart... i may not be a church-goer or an enthusiastic Christian... but i know that He is with me and in me... there's no need to explain and no explaination is needed.....

We had farwell graduation yesterday thought it wasn't really as superb as i had expected, it was ok. i had photo taking sessions yesterday with some bmt girls and hendra! haha he was such a gentlemen.. lol took with a few of us and actually erm withstand our rubbish? haha if u want to see the photos go to sha's blog she has uploaded it liao...

ok been wanting to blog about this since my b'day but didn't cos was kind of lazy. i got this wish-catcher bookmark from Yan Qing (which i like a lot... it was my fav colour, blue, and marine animal dolphin!) Thanks once again Yan Qing On the bookmark it reads:

LIFE is NOT measured by the BREATHS you take;
But by the MOMENTS that take your BREATHS away!

don't you find it so true. if you live long but there aren't much happy memories for you to think of what kind of life are u leading?! ok wait! dun jump down! i'm not saying tt you shld then end your dull and boring life. you still have time to go look for your true friends and do crazy things together that will be etched in your heart permanently. haha if you have really no one in mind, look for me! i am glad to be there for you. And i mean it!
For me, i think my life is so so so filled with MOMENTS that had and is still taking my Breaths away! thanks to the great friends i have made... My classmate esp aili, marina, huiyi, my brothers and sisters in Christ, my secondary sch friends whom they have always been with me, Mei2 my dear sister and of course my bmt mates... liyi, miches, sha, fang, ser and many more... there were crazy things we did, been through ups and downs together, shared beautiful memories together... without you, my life would be like a...erm... cuckoo clock?! lol ok kind of weird description... but i thk i will just be 'cuckooing' away every half and 1 hr.. but because of you guys, i dun even have the time to cuckoo lol...

Thanks for always being there when i need you most
Thanks for giving me beautiful memories when i had none
Thanks for lifting me up when i am down
Thanks for making me feel even happier when i am happy
Thanks for scolding me when i deserve to be scolded
Thanks for running me down when i am too proud
Thanks for your encouragement when i feel so useless
Thanks for cheering for me when i did something proud
Thanks for your shoulders when i needed one
Thanks for the pat you have given me when i felt unworthy
Thanks for the hug when i feel that i am non-existing
Thanks for the "Good Work" even when i lost
Thanks for forgiving me when i have done wrong
Thanks for walking with me through me life when i am all alone
THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS

Lastly Thank GOD for all that he has given me!

Wow!!! Finally i m back and the prelims have ended haha kind of relief now... and i learned something really precious this prelims...

I admit i kind of did last minute studying for this prelim exams... i wasn't prepared at all for the exams... and i really panicked last minute but praise GOD! It just feels like He has been with me throughout my exams. i even looked forward to the papers i dreaded most. Speaking to Him really works! He is always able to calm me down when i need it most. I have never felt so calm before when i m having such major examinations.

I know sometimes when you pray, you are just not sure whether He is gonna help you, whether He really answers to your prayers but for me, everytime after I prayed, i always say "I Believe! and I Receive!" and lastly of course say " Thank You God!" because you just know that He has answered your prayers already before you even see it. Just wait and see He never fails.... cos He is the Almighty God that no one can compare!

From accepting Christ without exactly knowing whether it is peer pressure or am i really touched (i did kind of sobbed you may not see it cos i hide it as it feels quite embarrassing... haha) to feeling really skeptical about Him, to thinking of reverting back to being a free thinker, to going into a hibernation period (P.s. it means not going to church for a relatively long period of time) to.....(*Can't continue) I guess most new believer goes through it but gradually you will start seeing God's grace and goodness flowing into your life like me! My faith has been growing stronger and stronger each day. It just feels good knowing that He is always by your side accompanying you, helping you and cheering you up. And praising and worshipping Him really makes you feel good... you dun have to have the big and beautiful stage, the beautifully synchronised choir, the powerful lead singers, the awesome band and lots of people (like my church) to be there before you can worship. You can always do so as and when you feel like... even if it's just humming, singing softly or even reciting the lyrics of a song to Him you will still feel good!

Haha non-believers call me whatever you like ... Holy freak, holy women, holy s***(kind of vulgar sorry!) whatever you like i don't care cos i have seen His goodness flow in me and that's enough! Of course this kind of like spiritual kind of things is usually kind of unbelievable unless you have experience it yourself so why not come see and feel for yourself! haha

Lastly i shall end with a quote:
*The path of the just is like the shining sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.*
* The way of the wicked is like darkness; They do not know what makes them stumble.*
Proverbs 4:18-19

God bless!

It's been rather long since i blogged. Been really busy especially with school work. I guess everyone is kind of stressed up now. Sometimes I just feel like i can't take it anymore...what if i breakdown during A's... haha stop thinking...

Does being good and doing your work always means you will always do so in the future?
Does this make you a really obedient and diligent person?
Does mean you can never not do your work?
Does it mean you cannot slack?
Why do you get surprised faces and stupid comments when you don't do your work for once?
You tell them you are skipping lesson and skeptical faces appear.
When you really do skip they are shocked.
Didn't you tell them so already?
There's no need to explain.
They have no need know why as well.
Just be yourself and don't get affected by what they say.
Be yourself!!!

One morning in school...
Student Good Girl didn't do her tutorial. She was in class doing last minute work and asking for help. In comes her 3 classmates. Upon seeing her, they stared and exclaimed:" You didn't do your tutorial! How come! Thought you were always prepared for lessons!" Student Good Girl was frustrated. " Ya lah ya lah! All of you very smart lah do your tutorial liao. Fine I sucked and I am lazy. Happy!"
She didn't not do because she didn't want to. She had a reason and a valid one. But no one listens. Explaining only make things worse.

People always judge by the appearance. They do not really give people the chance to explain. They assume. Are you one who assumes too? Assumptions are usually wrong and inaccurate. Don't let friendship sour by assuming. Don't let family ties loosen by assuming. Don't let relationship turn bad by assuming. Take time to listen. Not just listen but open your heart when you do so.

一個像夏天一個像秋天

第一次見面看你不太順眼
誰知道後來關係那麼密切
我們一個像夏天一個像秋天
卻總能把冬天變成了春天
妳拖我離開一場愛的風雪
我背妳逃出一次夢的斷裂
遇見一個人然後生命全改變
原來不是戀愛才有的情節
如果不是你我不會相信
朋友比情人還死心塌地
就算我忙戀愛
把你冷凍結冰
你也不會恨我
只是罵我幾句
如果不是你我不會確定
朋友比情人更懂得傾聽
我的弦外之音
我的有口無心
我離不開Darling更離不開你
你了解我所有得意的東西
才常潑我冷水怕我忘形
你知道我所有丟臉的事情

Emotions

Emotions

~Happiness~Sadness~Angry~Confusion~Calm~Amusement~
~Pride~Modest~Bitterness~Hope~Joy~Hate~Jealousy~Love~
~Worry~Terror~ Shock~Suffering~Sorrow~Nervous~
~Depression~Disappointment~Embarrassed~Enthusiasm~
~Fear~Shame~Stressed~Disgust~

Human are such amazing creatures.
Thousands of emotions.
Separated by thin fine lines.
One moment you are happy.
The next you are sad.
And right after you feel angry.
And suddenly you feel loved!
Who's so great as to create such a complex beings where even scientists up to now cannot totally figure out?

Friends are there to help you cope with your emotions
They do not idle if they are real friends
Share and your load is gone for good
Keep and you shall stay stagnant
Speak when you need to
Listen(with ears, heart, mind, eyes, not mouth) when you are confided in
Feel and you shall understand
Always remember we are Humans and not beasts
Emotions are our special gift and talents
Do not let it go to waste!

Missing you!

2006-07-17T23:33:00.000+08:00

We met at 6... didn't really like u at first... gave me a not very nice impression... lost contact after we graduate... met again at 11 (only den did we realise we were in the same pri sch after like 5 years... funny hor)... quarrel rather often but that's the 1st step to knowing u more... became real good friends soon... couldn't leave each other just for a day... met almost everyday... you shifted several years later... we remain close met as often as possible and i enjoyed ur company... those were the best years and time i had with u... i seem to be able to share everything with u under the sun... there's nth we do not talk about...

now it seems like our friendship has come to a standstill... we r not progressing but seems to be deterioriating instead... had little time for each other... u work and study... i have A's coming... it hurts whenever u ignore me or give me a cold shoulder when we meet... we don't seem to have much to talk about... tried to start a conversation but it always end after a few exchanges... where has that beautiful friendship gone to... it has drifted away with the wind i guess... but in my heart u r always there... u r the friend whom will nv disappear... u seem to be etched in my heart already... am always thinking of u do u noe tt? Just want you to know that no matter what happens... you will always be my best friend and the only sister i ever had... i have never forgotten about you so pls forget me not as well... i will always be there when u have troubles to share or shoulders u need to cry on... i promise u i will be there! Both of us may not have much time to spare but i m sure we can just leave a few hours for each other rite?

Shu
(P.s. you noe the Fan Wei Qi song? Yi ge xiang qiu tian yi ge xiang xia tian? i bet u know... tt's how i treasure our friendship and think that our friendship is just like what's describe in the song... Hope u r reading...)

1, 3, 5... 4.30-6.30... waffle shop... screaming at each other in sch at 7 pm... sweating together... teasing one another... laughing hysterically like nobody's business... dinner together... doing stupid and silly things... nv got bored... share emotions... i bet this would sound familiar to u ppl... i bet u noe who u r!

really miss these days when we were together...
every 1,3,5 i would wonder wat r u guys doing...
aren't we suppose to go to the hall...
meeting each other so often and yet we nv run out of topics...
tt was really the best days in my jc life man!
suddenly... ...
all these memories come back again...
we r doing all these together again...
brought back all the beautiful memories...
but it's gonna end soon...
all of us would soon be busy with studies
Let's jus enjoy and savour these moments together...
Just endure for 3 mths and alas!
we will be back together doing watever we like
isn't tt great!

The badminton open was great... i joined at first with a mind set to win but after seeing all the teammates back and playing together... i now have only 1 thing in mind which is to make full use of these few days and enjoy the company of each other! Winning is no longer a issue because come to think of it it's just a medal or a cup they have no feelings... u can't share ur joy nor sorrow with it... but friends they will always be there for u they r the one who will make u happy in the long-run(haha sounds like econs) while the cup it's short run...

TEAM TPJC(BMT) RULEZZZ!!!

Life is really full of it's ups and downs. No one would dare say they have no downs at all, even if you r as rich as Bill Gates or have everything in the world. I guess even Bill Gates r down at times too. Is life just that bored? Have been in the education industry for years and i really mean years! sometimes u just feel that why r we studying so much and why do we have to? You just feel like giving up sometimes when all the stress starts piling up (esp this yr). The life from a child all the way to teen are mostly spent on education (it's like 1/4 of your life! For some even more!) and sometimes it just sets you wondering whether life is just like that and nothing else!

Got back my phy and GP test results today. Experienced both nadir and zenith today. Phy was like a disaster... expected better results. (Careless mistakes u have really done ur job in failing me GREATLY! I shall nv let in come into my life again!) However, GP really lifted me up. Didn't expect my essay to be quite well done... at least i have nv done this well in the past tests and exams. Was really happy when i saw my results and it really motivate me to work even harder. Common test i guess was really a wake-up call. Months may seem long but before u noe it, Ta-dang! A'levels would catch u in surprise! Test and exams to me are really interesting "fellows" as they always like surprises and it can be both nice and horrible surprises... So BEWARE!

LIFE
Time is ticking.
Seconds are passing by.
Minutes gone.
Days come and go like wind.
Months disappear like blinks.
Years goes by silently without footsteps.
My blood still flowing.
Life contines to live by.
Unpredictable events.
Obstacles-filled life.
Happy moments for savouring.
Friends etched in hearts.
Giving joys and comforts constantly.
But some simply disappears soon after appearing.
And before you know all this would soon wither and there you are...
Up there in Heaven where all worries are cast out
And all downs are removed.
This is when the temporal life and journey on Earth comes to end
And peace and happiness prevails!

My First Blog!!! Yeah!

2006-07-04T22:15:00.000+08:00

haha finally got the blog done... took so much time and really thnks michlee (Miss OrangED) for her help really thnks or my blog can nv publish i think haha...hmmm... dunnoe where to start let's see!

ok ahem! I m now a new believer of Christ (I am so proud of it!) and I really love Him!

There was a period of time when i wondered if He was really there and if He really answer my prayers. I believe most new believers will have the same feeling as i do. It's like u dunnoe whether to really believe in Him and is skeptical whether He is really there. Sometimes when i prayed for something and it really happened, i wonder if it's juz a coincidence... i wasn't confident in Him... BUT... ...

Soon after, I found out that He is really good and i love Him! U just seem to know that it's Him and He is really there for u! I thank him for my great cg too! i juz dunnoe how to describe my feelings when i m with them but i just feel good and i know i can juz share anything with them. They make me feel so comfortable with them! Really thank God for them. Hope to see them like soon! Looking forward to the next cg session!

Ok... now about me! i m kind of lazy but dunnoe why i suddenly have the urge to start a blog... it's just came from within, it's undescribable. I hope i have the 'stamina' to keep updating this blog and not like let it die off like the previous one which was like ages ago. Haha and... finally, i bought a new bag... hope i dun regret buying it cos i always regret what i buy haha...
