TESTING 1,2,3

CT week update:

Day 1 - Late for school like for 5 min.
Well a certain teacher being unreasonable again. I don't really like people who put words in your mouth.
A fuss over a small matter, just because my thermometer was in Farenheit haha!
Oh well.
GP was uh, blurry?
Can i say that the comprehension passage seems a little propaganda?
Actually i think its more of an opposing view.
Not much strong, emotional words anyway.
Not like the film i just watched, haha.

Day 2 - SICK.
Been at home since i came back from the doctor at 9.30?
Polyclinics are quite a waste of time, wait till you die literally HAHA.
Played pokemon till i was too drowzee and fell asleep.
Woke up and you know what time it was?
6pm!
My day feels so short ._.
Orchard tomorrow cos i've scheduled my dental appointment at 11.
Night there's chair arrangement again woo!
Alright time to study my history before i become it.
Ok wait i am already, a History Maker!

Everyday its a struggle to put God's love first.
But then again, its only through trials that we are strengthened. (:
But i really pray o God, that You make me jealous of our love every time something else tries to take our time away.
Even if it is just a time of worship, let it sanctified to You, no distractions, just attraction.
Break my heart for what breaks Yours.

Whatever has been happening the last few weeks made me realise what a forgiving and kind God You are.
One that is also always there for me, One that frees me from my worries, One that lifts me up when i'm down.

I don't think i've ever regretted this walk.
I just want to continue walking this narrow way.
And i don't want it done with my own strength, but with Yours.

Heb 12:2 "Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

Mellisa: "You are like living a poly life in JC la!"

I'd think so too.
Well the past few weeks, i've been going out and going out and going out and going out.
Some firsts.
First bar i've been to.
Mm that was quite a fun night haha.

And its been a messy holiday.
Too many things happening at once.
Just when one problem is solved another one comes.
The heart of the matter is the matter of the heart will be quite appropriate here.

But praise God, at least i have one hell of an interesting life. ;D
Everything just got a whole lot messier.

"Square lor."

"I think now pentagon already."

"Very soon polygon."

Where to lepak sia?

Well another day spent, urm, not on homework.
Seriously i need to start somewhere for my work.

Anyway, dinner and chill with the 4A gang.
And guess what?
Only the same people turned up.
Haha. Seriously when can we have a breakthrough in attendance?(sounds vaguely familiar)
Ashtons, thank God i asked them to queue at like 6 cos it was really long by the time i got there.
OK yes i was late again.
After that was pool and arcade.
There was this arcade game that was super funny hahaha.
Dam funny to see people's reaction.

Supposed to go home together so we can all talk together on the long bus ride home.
Guess what?

"Ok i'm taking 166 i gotta go now bye!" *Boards bus*
"Uh ya i'm taking also." *Chases after bus*

"Take 857! Nearer." *Leaves for bus which is just right behind.*
*Follows*
"Ok wait, so what do i take?"
"Just come lah!"
*Follows on board*
"Bye!"

After a flurry of indiscriminate events, Michelle and I were left stunned asking each other what just happened.

And i found out on the bus the Mic had L4D.
SEND ME NOW!
Someone should liberate all rooms with mirrors for dancers to use.
URGE TO DANCE NOW CAN'T STOP.
OH MAN CAN SOMEONE REALLY GIVE ME AJ DANCE ROOM KEY NOW AND I'LL BE ECSTATIC.
Another eventful day.
I think my life is too eventful haha!
But still thank God.
Meetup with (supposedly) the Superteen people in the afternoon.
Turned out to be only Orson, Gary and me.
Still we had a long deep chat.
Got to know about the problems that has been happening.

Night was dinner at ba kut teh(2nd night in a row) with Max, Gwen, Jacq, MJ, Yun Ru and Sherman.
BS after dinner.

YR: "None of your cell group members same bs as you?"
Mel: "No leh."
YR: "Sad sia."
Mel: "WHAT?!"

Talk with Sherman after bs.
Well, really prays that he'll be able to rise up to the occasion when needed.
And God i really need Your guidance to teach and disciple him.

Headed over to Timbre after that.
Looking back now, did i exclusively left out Sherman by not inviting him to join us?
Anyway, finally found out where the much mentioned Timbre was.
Cai Quan with 3 ice cubes as forfeit.
After that, my hand got a sore beating.
Gwen can you not hit so hard next time?

On the way home i ran into a bunch of philippinos and hong kee people.
What a weird,weird day.

AFL

Back from tonning with Esther and Jon Tan at (guess where?)
Bedok Reservoir road macs!
And everytime i tell Leonard/Esther/Jon (etc the gang) that i know that area too well already and that something is definitely wrong.
Random ramblings.

Serious talk at macs in the morning that really distracted me from zuo wen(haha!) but still nevertheless interesting.
And someone was being pokingly annoying.

And today, according to Jacq, we were so high(due to a lack of sleep) that we were talking about how we would be like if we were angels.
So now, i'm like a PA?
And also i said if there was to be a book of Jacqueline, it'll be like 3x longer than the longest book in the bible.
Why?
Because of its 3x the quota of normal angels!
Haha! Hilarious.

Well, went back to MG in the evening.
Like after so long.
Danny said, "Long time no see."
Haha! He actually noticed, today he was being super cold in class.
And Michelle's warm up is imba as usual.
I nearly pulled one of my muscles.
And Jae says my singing improved! ^^
I CAN SING OK.
Even though i was so weak and didn't really feel like going to MG after the sleep at Gloria Jeans, I felt so refreshed dancing and singing again.
Doing the things i actually enjoyed.
And its definitely has to be God that gave me the strength and rejuvenation i desperately needed.
Heck, i even feel asleep while reading the word before classes started cos i went super early.
Thanks to my Great, Big, Dad.

Like the voice that calms the ocean,
You are the peace that calms my seas.

Make a Psalmist O' Lord

Dear God,

I would just want to be a psalmist for you.
To write songs that relate people to who You are.
To be the bridge just like Jesus.
Just use me O' Lord.
Because You've seen every tear i've shed.
Your eyes discern the heart of men.
You've seen the troubles of my soul.
And You are always good, i believe it so.
Sometimes when i don't feel like walking anymore,
You pull me up and set me on my feet.
You catch me when i fall.
And then You ask me to keep walking.
But how long is the road O' Lord?
It never seems to end.
Along the way, my feet seem to be getting heavier with every step i take.
I feel like putting down the cross You've asked me to carry.
But just before it touches the floor,
and breaks into a million irreplaceable pieces,
You send people in my life.
Who tell me to never give up and to speak to me what You've been trying to for a long, long time.
O' who am i to deserve this?
Who am i that You are mindful of me?
I am at a lost for words but the words of thanksgiving can't seem to stop.
Praises be to Your name.
A song of rejoicing sings glory to your name.

I am broken O' Lord.
Broken enough for You to fix the pieces.
Broken enough to let the fragrance pour out of my soul.
A blessing to all nations,
is what You have called to my name.

And i will be Your instrument,
if You will be my musician.
Because like the trumpet that rings high the sound of victory,
I am exalted in your hands.
Like the harmonica which plays the blues of beggars,
I am the Your vessel of compassion.
Like the guitar that brings joyful melodies to people all around the world.
I am called to be blessed to be a blessing to everyone around me.
Like the violin that shrills the tone of sadness,
I am Your relation to the troubled.
Like the drums that echo beat after beat,
I make people dance at Your feet.
Like the instrument You've placed in my hands,
I will make music all for Your fans.
God opens your eyes in ways more than one.
Felt so so so stressed today.
Its not totally because of duty.
It was a combination of many other things.
Refreshments, new friends, after service duties.
Just wanted to drop everything down and just leave.

But thanks to Ivan for talking to me.
Its a period of stretching.
Pressure is coming in from all sides, and the only thing God wants you to do is to grow.
Enlarge your capacity.
I'll say, "God just do it, i just keep doing what You want me to."
Even if i feel like giving up, even if i feel like breaking down, all i need is Your strength.

2 Cor 4:8-10
We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.

Class Chalet!

Back from class chalet!
Response was, honestly, very lukewarm.
Stayover count dropped from 13 to 9 overnight after the first day.
BBQ count was ok though.
At least 75%.
Lots of things happened on the first night of stayover.
Hahaha.

Had a talk with Deb this morning, and it really made me realize some very important things that i seem to have forgotten.
THANKS LOADS DEBBIE ;D

Feeling much much much better.
So much so i'm ready to be a history-maker.

Sometimes we even take the ability to walk for granted.

Saturday, June 6, 2009

I cried my heart out during worship today.
Just felt that i had to release everything.
And i felt God just speaking to me today during worship.

Just step out, step out, step out.
Don't be afraid.
Just be affirmed.

So what's the choice i have to make now?


Side note: Zobel is totally going to -35 on our lit assignment 3.

Friday, June 5, 2009

Back from tonning with Ah Piao and Gwen haha!
Hope everything's going to be better at home for Jacq.
On the phone till 6.

And we chilled in macs from darkness to light lor.
Talked about a lot of things.
And got to know them both better haahaahaa.

Well, now i have 2 pressing issues to deal with.
Just that after the advice sessions, i'll be able to act in faith.
Right away.

TOTALLY RANDOM BUT THATS JUST ME

HAHA i was just doing the survey form and i saw this section that said:

State 3 things you like about the way your tutor conducts the tutorial sessions:

Don't ask me why but i thought of Debbie immediately and what she'd probably put.
HAHA.


My heart's set in a motion thats unknown to emotion.

Because my heart beats in a direction different from yours.

Tuesday, June 2, 2009

I remember looking at Hector's profile photo and thought to myself, "Shit, i should get a shot of my freezes too and post it on fb!"

But i'm thinking, if someone asks for a photo of my freezes, i'll ask them to look for my video instead.

GDOP and Shifting

Well i think our friendship(s) has gone to a new level.
Last few days have been physically straining especially with triple days of serving haha.
At least was pretty glad that i did stage 2 well.
Still got stuff to work on, according to Jeff.
Although he did say Hubert and me did a good job^^

After that overnight stay at Jacq's house with chatting and cats and no cards and some squishy beanie thing.

And with 3 hours of sleep, GDOP and midnight shifting.

By around 11.30 i hardly had any strength left @_@

Left around 12, reached home at 1, slept at 2.
Well till 12 today.

What a way to start the holidays.
