PW is just the best lesson to unwind.

"You know in real life if she got cat eat mouse need to pay like a dollar or something?"

"Ariel can you stop PONG-ing? Bloody irritating."

"Should have seen my hand just now! Freaking nice lah, then Pei Wen had to hu."


Anyway, basketball in school till about 7 with Jason and Gran and the interact-basketball team Adeline.
A new day, a new friend.
Somehow reminds me of Krishnan, not just the name.

In any case, felt fruitful.
A lot more to improve if we're ever going to play in nationals.
Like:
















































This much to improve.

Ok rushing PI, I've got a brillant plan for my planned application.

Everyday, i start homework at 10pm.
That is just not going to work.
Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

I think i really miss hols.

“Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;”

(Romans 12:12, KJV)

Privacy issues on facebook.
Actually, its more of a social concern.

Just to address it here, please do not add me for a superficial reason.
Look at my status on facebook and you'll understand what i mean.

People, i know you are reading my blog.
Adsense tells me so.
So please tag!

I do check it daily you know!

Team outing was great today, got to know the team people a little better.
And Clark is one heck of a great storyteller.

I feel crushed by an albatross.

"The worst part of going through a trial is not understanding why the trial is occurring, or what the purpose of the trial is. You can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. You don’t even know where you are going. There will always be periods when you feel like you are wandering through life aimlessly. You are unable to grasp any sense of the direction you are heading. In those moments when you can’t fully comprehend everything that is going on in your life, just cling tightly to Jesus." - www.konghee.com

Is Beauty a blessing or a curse?

Within a month, i can have 2 different tags that link to a blogshop.
Does this mean viewership is going up? (^^)

Now i can wash my hair with one press of shampoo.
:/
Oh well, but i still feel i didn't get the honour due.

Luke 6:28
"bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you."

Word of the Day

Thought this was pretty interesting and deserved a post:

ken \KEN\, noun:

1. Perception; understanding; knowledge.
2. The range of vision.
3. View; sight.

Star Awards is the acting award ceremony where you can hear gratitude speeches in two or more languages.

Other thoughts include an unhelpful PE HOD who won't let me off on thursday to open a chalet.
I really really really hope it rains on thursday afternoon.

Give honour to whom honour is due.
Sometimes i just...squelch the thought.

'Vengeance is Mine," says the Lord.

"Seek first the kingdom of God, and His rightiousness shall be added to you."

Indie Education

I just have this strong persuasion to drop out of JC and go to a private Uni.
Is it the right choice?

I'm just sick of working so hard for something so worthless.
Another 2 years of academics for a worthless A level certification?
Can't even get you employed.

Just like O's.

Drilling and drilling and drilling.
Studying for something you don't like?

I'm very very jaded.

Methods against passion.
Assessment kills interests.

Why does the alternative seem so lucrative now?

A Different Friday

You know, PE is horrible when you're the only guy in your class doing it.
Especially when all the guys(reminder: 3) in the class are in sports CCA and the other two are excused for competition when ALL sports are having seasons.

OH well.
Training for NAPFA i guess.
And today's 2 rounds around the school made me realise something.
I'd always thought the road home from yck mrt was rather short.
Now i realise that it is rather long and tiring to run that same path.
One road, two perspectives.

Speaking of which, Technologies often get replaced or fade in time but Perspectives will always leave a timeless impression.
I'm not comparing Science classes to Arts classes (:
Ok fine, everyone and anyone can come up with a new perspective(does this satisfy you now science class readers? hahaha).
Probably because we're all so different.
Appreciable diversity.
So please don't be afraid to be different.
Say NO to uniforms! Haha

Ok enough rambling.
If you want to start a GP argument on whatever i've posted, just go somewhere else.

Rumors i don't need.
Well its not going to matter because its not about what people think but what God thinks.

But i ask the question, why?

Its time to get back to the cross.

Free Cone Day!

Free cone day today!
Well its my first.
And i have never had so much ice cream in a single day.
Junk food, must stop.
Especially since i've yet to get my ass to the gym.

Well Bailey's at Udders was awesome.
Like SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME.

And i nearly died(metaphorically) on 5 eclipse mints.
Desperate to stay awake during lectures.
Ariel said it was some laxative.
And i realise only now that he went to the toilet for like 15 mins after econs lecture when we were trying our best to stay awake popping eclipse mints.

Every passing day with more and more homework.
Well today isn't that bad.
And managed to survive several lessons without being called to hand up some overdue assignments.

Studying sessions with Aril, Han Nui and Lev.
Often turns into chatting.
Ok but there is focus.

I need to stop spending. Like seriously.
Still have to pay Mic for the tees.

No new insight today.
Just another recollection.

Song of the Day: The World is Black - Good Charlotte

Instant Gratification

Here's the petition for saving polaroid.

Oh God, PI has never been this interesting until you've showed me.

Life is never what it seems but it just keeps getting better and better.

THANKS EVERYONE!

AJC Family Day 09

Today was really enjoyable!
With 36/09!

Early in the morning, i already became a walking advertisement for my stall.
And while the others were busy setting up the stall,
Lev, Kendramon, Ariel, Angeline and I were spraying watermelon seeds and shooting each other while waiting for the our part of the 25km run to start.

Our contingent got cut off halfway!
During the transfer at the bus haha!

And while we were running in, it was like tons of people cheering for us because we were the last to run in.
And like they were popping confetti while we ran in, felt like some olympic/marathon runner finishing a race haha!
While we were catching our breath, i turned to the others and said, "We should do this more often."

Plenty of shooting after that, especially around our stall area.
Pictures already up on facebook.
And i think people thought i was some official photographer cos i was wearing the "iServe" tee haha!

And i was quite surprised that our stall had customers.

"Actually i thought that our would not have such a good business, till i realise that three-quarter of the population in AJ are girls."

Well i'll the rest of the talking to the pictures.

My messaging is on an all time high these past few days.
Thank God my plan finally has free messaging.
Really helpful for Easter^^

Whew, prayer week has been a blast!
Just as what WH said, keep pressing in, keep pressing in, until you've reached a whole new level.
If 1 hour on Earth can make us go so deep into the presence, i cannot imagine how it will be like in heaven.

Xin Min school carnival soon, I've got to do someone's Birthday card so bai people.

Gud Arfthemoon Misther Rong

Hooked on learning korean haha!

Mimicking korean english accents during civics lesson.

And i'm beginning to think PW is one hell of a big mountain.

Keep Your Loose Change

Doing random stuffs today in class.
Mostly with regards to my hair.

And the GP teacher keeps telling me to sit on my chair.
"Chairs were designed for peopel to sit and tables for people to write."
Want to see how a chair is designed to shut people up? ^^
Ok cannot, must give honour just as John Bevere says.

And when Levinia was trying to find my EZ-Link photo, something happened.
She is like the epic fail girl.
My loose(literally) change fell into her porridge.
Karma mama says Yvonne.

Alright time to catch up on work.
Is it me or does it seem like there's hardly any work to do?

Sowing and Reaping

Sometimes we search everywhere for answers and don't realise that they are just right in front of us.

GP lesson last monday was a laughing spree.
A period to train those abs.
And i brought the guitar for nothing!

Angeline said that sowing and reaping was an idealistic sentence.

This is probably why i'll never become a lawyer.


I'd just like to discuss a little about this though.

Is sowing and reaping merely just a optimistic ideal that speakers, motivators, preachers use to perk up the message that they have at hand?
Or is it really a intangible law at work every single day of our lives?


Some people believe that for every seed you sow, it is not guaranteed get back 100% of what you've sown.
They say,"If you're lucky, you'll get back 50%, or more."

Isn't it such a case, especially in the area of education?
Sometimes, we take all that extra effort to prepare for that one test, one exam, one assessment that matters.
And guess what?
Life has to play a mean trick on us.
We don't get the grades we thought we should have deserved.
Is this really true sowing and reaping?
How come the amount that i've put in is not equal to the output i'm getting?

Why don't i get the promotion and yet that slacker does?

Why don't i get the post i've wanted and yet that someone else who's less deserving gets it?

Life is full of ironies isn't it?


And then there are others that believe that for every seed you sow, you'll definitely reap back more than what you've sown.
One seed can produce a multitude of fruits once it grows into a tree, can it not?

Take for example, the seed of an apple.
All you've got in your hands is but a seed.
You plant it, you water it.
And when it finally grows into a tree, how abundant is the harvest that you receive!
Certainly more than ever, your seed has multiplied, ten times, twenty times, thirty times, even a hundred times!


But wait a minute, isn't this also sowing and reaping?


Why is there so much difference in the reaping process?
Was there something that went wrong?
If the reaping process couldn't be changed, was there something that happened in between from the sowing process all the way until the start of the reaping?


When a farmer sows his seeds into the land, does he know exactly which seed will definitely bring back a harvest?

Imagine that he scatters his seeds all over a plot of land, wouldn't it be possible that some would be eaten up by birds, other animals or insects?

And when the plants start growing, are there not the weeds that grow beside it?
Some of these weeds even have the audacity to choke its host plant, effectively reducing the number of crops that can be harvested by one.

Worse of all, there might be a sudden change in weather, the seasons just didn't seem to follow the calenders of yester-years.
The dry season was too long, the wet season was too short, yet again, the farmer has low expectations of the harvest.

So hey, there are so many possibilities that can influence the harvest results and they all range from the moment the seed is sown all the way till before it is ready for harvest.

Which brings us back to the farmer, if he knew all these might happen, why did he still sow in the first place?

The answer is simply because, he sowed in faith.
All he needed to do, was to believe that someway, somehow, he would and could possibly, reap something from sowing seed.

Ok stop, pause and think. You may say that my answer is overly idealistic, but just consider this in a logical manner, is every farmer assured that his every seed will sprout and bring forth fruit?
Every single possibility under the sun to ruin the crops coupled with the unpredictable events that happen from day to day effectively puts every seed at risk.
You may say that technology has improved farming methods, but, crops are still susceptible to a variety of other factors that may cause it to be destroyed.
Technology has merely lessened the risks.

Back to my point, the farmer definitely needed at the very least, an ounce of faith while he was sowing seeds.

And would you agree that by law of relativity, the more seeds he scattered, the higher his chances of reaping would be?

2 Corinthians 9:6 (New King James Version)

But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

As illustrated in the bible, someone who scatters more seed than another will definitely reap more.

Even if you have had gave your best in preparing in an examination and didn't get the results you desired, you still would have showed an reasonable performance.

Effort shows.

Sometimes in life there are just too many birds that fly past our crop fields;
too many weeds that clutter our land;
too many dry seasons that spoil our harvest,
but if we don't lose hope, and continue to scatter in faith, continue to water it daily, continue to persevere in our efforts, one day, your harvest will not be denied.

Mark 4:20 (New King James Version)

But these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.

FOL - Fun, Obvious Learning

Today's singing lesson was interesting!
And Celine's pretty cute.

Crashed at Charlie's lesson during break.
Think people have more respect for dancing now.
And its time to gather the BBOY people so can practice after school haha.
Important training time cos i'm suspending MG for 2 months.

Long post coming up soon, still editing it.

All Over the Place

Why why why?
I think the holidays really have caused to be totally unrestrained.
I need to find that discipline back.

Discipline for work.

Discipline for gym.

Discipline for guitar.

Discipline for dance.

Discipline for gaming.

Discipline for prayer.

Its a tiring moment, and this time i know the cause is me, not events.
Getting back to the narrow way, getting back to the first love.

Organisation.

My mind is in a flurry of different thoughts, I need sleep.

Seeking the kingdom again, putting it in the center.
All that i've learnt, the time for application, is now.

And i ask myself is it another holiday?
Probably not, but it has been a fulfilling 7 days so far.

i m at yur laptop posting on yur blog.



ariel! again. ^_^

What makes you tick?

Evangelism Xplosion was the BOMB!
Like BOOM! EXPLOSION!

Learnt so much, impacted so much.
I almost couldn't believe that i had spent half a day in jurong west building!
Really an anointed place, presence presence presence.
And i got to see the rooftop haha!
My vision for water baptism next year!

Skipping the other churchy details, I've come to note that its been sometime that i've blogged about a noteworthy post.

After how Terence shared about today,
every post we make on our blog can actually have an impact.
I seem to have forgotten that.

All the mediums we have available and yet we don't utilise them.
I think its about time.

Respite

Hols are here!
A time of rest.
But why can i have 3 same events on the same day?
Applicable to Mon(yesterday) and Wed.

Well today was kind of interesting, got the chanceto practice my people photography.(HAHA JACQ)
I'll let facebook do the talking with the pictures.
Rainy weather didn't stop us from having fun, although it did stop us from having most of it.
Mini misadventures but in the end, another enjoyable day.

Great start to the hols!
Won't let homework cramp my style.

Egogogo

If AdSense can track how many people view my blog everyday, i definitely know some people aren't tagging!
Haha 45 page impressions?

Chinese chi chi

CHINESE IS FINALLY DONE WITH HALLELULAH!
And the most unexpected thing was that the teacher thought our essay was quite impressive.
Still got some things to improve, but she said she was satisfied with the standard of both groups.
Well praise God, i didn't really expect her to see it that way.

Councilors today were dodging questions like politicians.
Not very satisfiable answers.
Kiru, Natasha and Kendra were like, "You should have run for council!"

And here comes another time of organising.
Thursday - ECP
What to do, what to do, what to do.

Oh and music marathon what to perform?!
I really want to find a female vocalist for My Happy Ending.

Limits no more

Faith puts no limit on God, and God puts no limit on faith.

Reading pastor's blog on a daily basis does sure help one see more, in a biblical manner.

Well last few days were quite hectic, i often reached home late, around 11 or 12.
And with chinese, sleeping time is pushed to often close to 2am.
Wei Qi says she can see my tiredness already.

Pressing on then!
Only a day more.
The zuo wen is almost complete, with Donald's ending paragraph tomorrow, it'll be done.

Yesterday's breaking was fun.
Today celebrated Jon tan's birthday and also farewell party for Davin.
Both at Marina Square.
And i managed to get a cheap tie for Mr Ong.

Ok very tired, school is in 3 hours.
Bai

argh chinese.

I have a sudden urge to teabag people.

Sundays

So much to do again with so little time.
Are sundays always like that?
Especially since i spent sat resting.
Oh well its sort of like my sabbath anyway.

So leaving sunday the only day to do weekend homework.
Left with 2nd history outline and also maths test studying.

Prioritise, Prioritise.
I think i should throw my DS out the window.

And online spree on threadless with Harv and the rest.
Finally.
Before everything runs out of sizes haha!
www.threadless.com

Alright homework time, i'm digressing again.
Please stop tagging me in random personality pictures.
Its interesting but annoying.

Cocoa Madness

Time to be a people-builder.
Mel. C asking why i'm looking so glum.
Am i?

And yesterday was a mad chocolate sale.
Super cheap stuff!
Like a whole lot of way expensive stuff super cheap.
Rita Sport 3 for $1?
Of course must buy!
Oh and we pooled money to get alcoholic chocolates haha!

Managed to get the banner done yesterday!
It was pretty colourful!
And the stroke for the class insignia haha!

After that was back to CHS talk-cock session with the iMedia peeps.
Alot of stories hahaha.
And MC and YZ snatching over the liquor chocolates i gave them.
$15 for 26. Sweet stuff.

Alright homework time~

Projects

Lots of computer sessions today.
Slack slack slacker.
And THANK GOD my phone was still in 211 when i went back to get it.

Design session after school was quite uh, not very innovative i guess.
But there was mario!

AND YAY MY LAPPIE IS BACK!
THE TECH SAID I FRIED MY MOTHERBOARD LOL.

Song of the day: Run, Don't Walk - Hey Monday

AHHHH screw festival of life.
Why so many people signed up for SINGING WHY WHY WHY
The first time i saw i already knew some i confirm no need go.
But now i have trouble choosing!
Erv ask me go those i learnt before go own them LOLOLOL.

"Ok this is how you do baby freeze."

*Automatically does.*

*Everyone stares.*

"Ok, why did you sign up for this class?"

"I like history."

Arrowed

"What did i miss?" - Ariel
"Some house rep responsibilities, not very important." - Me
"Oh ok, then who's house rep?" - Ariel
"Er, i got arrowed to be." - Me
"What arrow! We are democratic ok, we voted!" - Levinia

If a 20 to 1 vote counts as a democratic decision, i guess i'm wrong about totalitarianism.

Ah but i guess being house rep should be fun haha.
Abit like OGL kind of stuffs.

And we were talking about how marketable Levinia was.
Because she wants to be a product.
Ariel and I are such good salesmen.

And we got lost looking for PW class.
Changing all the time.
Lucky AJ is some small school.

Muscle ache in biceps, triceps, abs and a little in chest.
Shoulders wayyy ache.
Especially after trying to learn shoulder freeze yesterday.
Ok PE even on rainy days can kill.
Actually, i think its more of a combi of gymming on monday plus PE on tues then left me aching.

Ok i cannot remember any other thoughts but at least basketball training was extended slightly today.
Still, ended prematurely 'cos of the light drizzle and the lightning alarm that went off.

Chinese hw and PW.
Double research stuff.
Aiyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Archives

I feel i'm missing something important.
Just a sec ago, reading from my archives, i saw:
"Service was wow as usual..."

And i think to myself,(don't complete with, "what a wonderful world.")
Have i lost something over the last 3 years since i've accepted Christ?
A hunger, a desire, a fire, a flame?

God, its just not the same anymore is it.
Now, sometimes it can seem so tiring to go for service, so troublesome to even walk that distance to the interchange, so irritating just to wait for that 1 hour bus ride.

And now, i'm catching less and less of sermons.
Sitting in service and listening to Pastor preach is indeed a blessing.
Compared to standing up in the tunnels with the chatter on the net buzzing in your ear.

So what is it?
Cell group shift, ministry, passion?
I don't think i've lost the fire.
Perhaps just its materialising in a different way.
It used to be just sheer enthusiasm.
Now perhaps its more than that.

Its action, with wisdom.
Not just words alone.

I've come to realise again, the growth i've been through the last three years.
"Ministry shapes your life," someone used to say.
I couldn't agree more.

Ministry gives you purpose.
But i'm realising, perhaps this is not my ministry.
Well, i guess it's back to square one: prayer.

I'd just wish some things would stay the same.

Another day another time

I can't believe its March already, every year seems to move faster and faster hahahaha.
Or maybe its just because i have school again.

CCA's are one day a week.
Shioking.
But what's not that it rained last week, cutting training from 5.30(presumably) to 3.45pm.
And lagged awhile in school 'cos of the really really heavy rain.
The lightning alarm amuses me.

SPEAKING OF WHICH, (lightning alarm reminds me of PE head, reminding me of PE dept)
Ariel and me got caught for hair today(wth?)
The SS(Sports Secretary, actually, sounds a lot like Hitler's bodyguards or something) says our hair has to go flat.
0_0

And i've got replies from my concerned readers to repair.
Well i'm going to see the cost first.
Tomorrow's a trip to Bras Basah for GC.
Texas Instruments GC is slowing me wayyyyyyyyyy down cos all the notes are in Casio GC.

"If life is so fair, why do roses have thorns?"
I just can't help saying that everytime i see Mickey.

Friday's performance was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wild.
Haha i think the teachers didn't like it that much but oh well we had fun.
And half the time, people kept laughing at regi.
OH well.

And my guitar spoilt!
The plug in is majorly screwed.
Repair, or new?

Why does maths look like bio?
And zai today never bring graphic calculator.
But still, why does maths look more and more like bio?
Oh noes.

Before i forget,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARIEL!

Review

Am i like the only person that can fail to login to my email account after five tries because of mistyping my password?

Don't answer.



Benjamin Button wasn't as enjoyable as i thought it would be.
But still overall a pretty meaningful film.
The novelty slowly wore out since i first watched the trailer.
Or maybe it was because we missed like the first 5 minutes or something.
Somehow i just feel that the movie didn't leave me with like a impactful message.
Which i thought it would.
Still it was interesting, and pretty touching.

How ironic that at the last minute i gave up my ticket to watch with the OG and in the end still ended up watching the movie with some of the cell people.

Yes you can start quoting what Benjamin said in the movie, how every event is set up for the next etc etc etc, but i'm not a believer of fate, i'm a believer of Christ.
Still, everything that we want to do, we'll do it eventually.
I guess that's why i watched the movie in the end haha.

Rating? 3.5 stars.
I must admit, some parts of the film were rather long and boring. Haha.

Must get well soon, seems like as long as i take my medicine regularly, the fever stops.

Insanity

If you keep doing what you've done, you'll keep getting what you've got.

New Hobby

Lots of shoving, pushing and MOSHING.
AT FOB HAHA!
Right in front of us too!

Ah well. Had a great time.
Wonder how i'll sound like tomorrow.
No wait todayyyy.

Fast facts

I have a class with two guy classmates.
I am the same class with someone that i got a shock from knowing.
I am the same class with someone i just saw once last week.
I just knew someone who used to be from the same primary school as me.

Just to quote SiY, "Singapore is an extremely small peesai country."

Mediocre!

Ok orientation is fun yet it sucks now.
Its fun because of the hype.
It sucks because hardly anyone is cheering.

Ok please be high tomorrow everyone because i'm already into orientation/camp mode.

Its a First

Fun at Cine/Somerset yesterday with the usher gang plus Qy.
Makes Qy sound extra but no you're not ok!
Hahaha!

Anyway we wanted to watch this:



And they were worrying how to sneak me(the only gi-nah) into the theatre.
All the big fuss over nothing because the usher didn't stop to check IC.

Good show, good plot.
But its like, an obvious move to keep the series going, but not a desperate one.
Solid 3.5 stars for me.

Feeling much better already since yesterday.
Still a little light headed but condition's improved a lot.

Thank God its not orientation week.

That's What I Go to School For

I HAVE TO SLEEP AT 11 AGAIN NOOOOOOOESSSSSS.

Anyway today was kind of boring because it was talks all the way hardly any interaction but oh well it is admin week and this is sort of kind of expected and my sentence structure is too long and should be more branched out and it contains too many 'and's and i don't know how this is going to end but i'm going to sleep because i'm so pooped after going to mg today.

Oyasuminasai!

okay ariel loves you!

RE:Orientation

Sucks to reorient body clock.
And one week of admin.
One week of orientation.
Two weeks of bonding.
Alright, bedtime.

Posting Results.

Hahaha Thank God!
Because when i saw the sms, i immediately went back to sleep.
1st choice.
7.20am is the time i wake up now.

Eumora

Has anyone heard of Eumora?

Online Shopping

I swear(ok maybe i don't, but i just want to affirm) there isn't anything that has been as confusing or troublesome as online shopping.
Converting all the prices into SGD.
UUUUUUUUGHH.

But still its cheap.
Bugis prices with much better quality.

Niu Year

Chinese new year once again.
But why this year i don't feel the atmosphere?

Maybe its good?
Blaring songs all day long.

Midnight movie with cell on 1st day of CNY:


Bride wars was an appreciable movie.
Smurf, haha!
I agree with what des said, "For BFFs that had a tiff, they gotta watch this movie."
But if you're looking for a light-hearted comedy, this isn't that bad either.
Tick factor: 2/5

Overall rating: 3/5 stars.

School's reopening soon.
Hmm i wonder.

I have to agree.

Rambling #4

I've finally completed digimon world dawn!
Childhood memories, hahaha.

OH and my room isn't spruced yet.
Better get going.

Rambling #3

Saw JY in school today.
Like way long since the last time i saw him.
Hopefully everything's alright.
Hope is frail but its hard to kill.

And the first teacher i went to 'bai nian' to was HML.
Haha super funny.
Shan ask for ang pao turned down cos no oranges.
She says she might consider giving lum/me 'cos of the oranges.

Hamin: "Yo HML! Xin Nian Kuai Le!"

HML: "Xin Nian Kuai Le, Xin Nian Kuai Le."

*Looks suddenly from Hamin's dressing to mine*

HML: "Wa ni men de dressing yue lai yue havoc."


And when we tried to converse in chinese during the mini-cell shopping outing, des was perpetual fail today.

Shop, drop, roll.

I was going to post about locking class yesterday but i was too tired and occupied playing digimon that i didn't.
Okayyye.

Khee if you're reading this yes we should go out soon.

Shopperholic this week.
Far east and back again.
Bugis, Hereen, Wisma(HAHA! All just to please a little girl.)

And i forgot to bring my vouchers that WH gave me during Christmas.

New bag wooo.
And so many new stuffs.
Lovely.
Today was fun.

Visitation at CHS, surprising that there were so few teachers that stayed back.
And even more surprised at the fact that there was no crowd of visitors going back to the school.
I think its because there's no halfday throughout singapore today in all schools.
Kind of, well, bull.
Can't we have some breathing space?
Yes the eve is on sunday, but i mean even students deserve a break?
Even working class people have off days STARTING from wed.(Of course only some, not all.)

OH YA. I RIPPED MY SKINNIES!@#%@#
But luckily didn't climb down the sheltered walkway because the steps are like underneath.

Hahaha.


Oh and the taiwan dessert shop in far east.
The texture of the ice so special!
Like white grass lah.
Special stuff.
"Only come like once in a while lah, so unhealthy." - Little girl.

Rambling #2

Suddenly i am reminded of this event when Shan, Darren, Perry, Shawn and me were on the way to far east and then we had to go to the toilet.
Then we went into Grand Hyatt just for that.

Rambling #1

I just realise that even a rambling on my blog helps to keep it updated.

Breaking on tues was fun.
We were horsing around.
With a sick air baby no one could do.

Shopped at bugis and got the stuff i wanted whoo~
With about $40-$50 left, where can i get a nice vest?

Reminescence

Going out with the 4A people was really great today.
Surprisingly, there wasn't the awkward silence that i expected, PTL.
It was like chatting with old friends.

Can i say thank God for O's?
HAHAHA
Because it was really a main topic today, talking about subs and everything.
YJ's left out cos of IP programme, awww.

Guess there's so much to chat about even when we're all taking our seperate paths.
I guess its good, that we take time to meet the people that we've once crossed paths with.
Building relationships, isn't that great.
When you're all alone, lost and looking for counsel,
you can always fall back to one ship,
and that's friendship.
(Of course i'll always look towards God first though. Hahaha)

Sentosa and sun burns.
"There's the sun, sand and surf."

A Short Reflection

THANKS! for the million and one sms'es and phone calls.
To all the people that made a difference in my life today, i can't help but have only the deepest gratitude for you.

This also goes out to all the hardworking teachers at CHS.
Though i've never liked to be associated much with the school but still, i still think that the staff deserves a standing ovation for their effort!
Thanks!
Goes out especially to:

Ms Krishnan
Mrs Ling
Mdm Ee
Mr Yong
Mr Tan
Mr Thomas
Mr Fernandez(Fitler)
Mr Heng
Ms Tan
Mr Krishnan
Ms Chua
Ms Wong
Mr Tan
MJ
Mrs Tan

Thanks for everything!


So now when one chapter has passed, here comes the other.
Sure I might not have made it into the JC that i wanted to go.
Maybe was it because i didn't want it that much?
Or maybe my focus was diverged?
Still, i won't blame anyone else for the results i get.
Don't get me wrong, i'm not whining.

But i don't know why, i'm not feeling that happy inside.
Prolly have to pray and ask.
Maybe its cos of English and History.
Or pride.
Hopefully not.
Or is it God trying to show me something?

Still, all in all I want to thank God!
Seriously, i don't think O's would have been possible without God.
Like when i was studying for geog on the day itself and the topics that came out, exactly the same that i studied, you can bet there's divine intervention.
And chinese!
Like woah. A1.
1M, 1M, 1M.
It isn't 1-Merit, its 1-Miracle.

Ah i guess sometimes, when everything doesn't turn out the way you wanted it to, you can always find something to be thankful for.
Screw it if i get 2 for hist and eng, this mountain isn't the teeniest comparable to my God.

Because He is over all.

Results

So the much awaited results finally come out and everyone is probably anxious to know the results.

*Drum roll*

L1R5: 10
L1B4: 8

Everything is raw yeah.
Hmm i think probably AJ or SA now.
Checking the scholarships they offer.

To my fellow peers: When choosing a JC, consider your University opportunities.

Honor

Before i start posting anything, this goes out to all the billions of people who've sms'ed, msn'ed, wrote on my wall, commented on my status changes, and changed their status just to wish me best of luck for results later.
I just wanna say: THANK YOU!

Sorry if the following post is going to sound more medicore than my normal writing standard.
I've been out of touch with writing for a long, long time.

Service today was fantastic and Pst. John Bevere is a really really really really really AMAZING preacher!

Not forgetting that he's humourous as well.
Today's message was really impactful, about honoring others.
Honoring those above you, on the same level as you as well as those beneath you.

And to honor is to respect, no matter in what medium.
Words, action, heart & thought.
Yes in the heart and thought as well.

His message today made me realise some things.

Sometimes when we are placed under authority(be it teachers, bosses, or ministry leaders),
don't we sometimes resent the place we are in?

"How much better it would be if I were in their position instead."

Or sometimes we think that what they do isn't right and we, holding on to our beliefs, choose to go against what they do.
Be it method or attitude that spites us, we have had some form of silent rebellion that only we know of.

Your Parents?

Today, Pst. John said that its not about the nasty boss you have, but its recognising the authority that is given to him.
Since all authority is given by God, honoring your angry, impatient, biased and incompetent overseer is also honoring God.

How many times have we dishonoured God or have we not placed value in God because we have not honored a higher authority?


And about honouring people on the same level - peers.
The last time you got angry at, made a nasty remark, insulted, cheated, lied to someone whom you considered a friend or even at the level of an aquintance, you have dishonoured that person.

Sure you could reason you weren't that half bad.
But when was the last time you had a misguided thought to judge someone else?

Lastly, sometimes this is the hardest to fulfill - Honouring those beneath you.
Those that are under your authority.
Some may ask, how can i have anyone under me?
Your younger siblings, your team members, your juniors, your younger cousins, anyone who is learning from you(I won't say disciple because its not applicable to all)?

Is it just all about giving orders, orders and more orders?
Do this, do that, because i'm above you.

It irks me sometimes when i see maids being treated in such a manner,

Have you ever considered going down to their level to interact with them?
Have you ever wished them even a simple "Happy Birthday"?

Have you honoured these people today?

Shangri-la food is the bomb!
Flavourful mango ice-cream ahaha.
Loved the white clams, look alot like abalone.

Service in 9 hours time?
Must wake up, must wake up.


Finding a reason to pray everyday.

Results, results, results.

The big day awaits 12 Jan.
I remember talking with Manfred once about why O's is always on thursday.

Me: "O's on 12th or 15th ah? Keep changing date sia."

Lum: "Should be on 15th lah, always come out on thursdays."

Me: "Wa seh, like movie sia."

*Lum now gives me the GL stare plus face*

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when desire comes, it is a tree of life.

Direction

I think i've probably lost part of it this holidays.
But i must say its been one of the most memorable holidays i've ever had.
And fruitful too.
Not just pure gaming at home.

I just wonder, after all the late night outs and chilling, why do i come back and find myself empty again.
Hmm...
Am i asking for too much?
I don't know, i need a confidante.

A year of consecration, a year of consecration.
If you can't be faithful in the little things, how can you be faithful in much?

Taking action is then my most major flaw.

When you've seen so much and have been inspired so much, it really takes something new to inspire you all over again.
Just one thing, just one.

Who can i turn to?

So many things have passed!

After the one week chalet marathon i think i can finally take a break.

G2S4/5 Thanksgiving was a success, letting me breathe again. -whew-

What's left with Jan?

I wonder.

Job job job.

I need the dough.

Au Revoir 2008

10 Merry Christmas With Love -

It was a unbelivable day yesterday!

Like I'm super dazed at the fact that Isabella told me! 

Interesting.

Yesterday was fun, especially the 9pm onwards part.

Misadventures with plenty of fun.

But i was slightly distracted by the section outing stuff.

So much to work on.

Still, it was enjoyable!

The xiao long bao, HAHA

"Must slowly drink the juice inside but not too much, so that when you eat, you can eat with the juice."

"AHHHH!"

Thanks Isabella, for the food and the cab there!

And this cool new skate thing we saw at Plaza Sing, it would be nice if i had it as a Christmas gift(hint hint).

Surviving through a midnight ordeal, i have no idea, but i had a dream, or rather a nightmare that reminded me of the movie 28 days later.

I prayed myself to sleep.

2 Tim 1:7 (NIV)

"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."

Merry Christmas with Love

Maybe it was all  predestined?

To not have a friend for MyHope.

Inspiring yeah.

Massive camwhore after cell.

With nice noodles -yummy-

New way to type with the "- -"

Probably influnced from Enqi and Amanda(Jap).

With Enqi being the one with more influence haha!

Christmas is coming!

Busy time, already with plans in mind.

1 John 4:18

"But, perfect love casts out all fear."

Jaunts and Junkets

Hello my faithful readers, its been a tiring one day the last two days.

It felt like one although it was two, maybe because i only slept 90 minutes throughout the entire two days.

Wed was photo outing with the cell and after that was iMedia chalet.

Photo outing was shooting people!

Not scenery!

So i felt somewhat cheated.

But it was fun anyway.

And i was super early as usual.

Messaging with other's phone is a dangerous, fun and thrilling act.

iMedia chalet was a little low energy, and master chef cooked about 20 chicken wings that tasted somewhat raw.

Manfred the storyteller has lots of CCFs to tell.

And also CPF. HAHAHA

After that was midnight attempt to buy booze but failed even with lum's secret trick.

YZ dam pissed.

Murderer was confusing.

Werewolf often got Darren burnt on the stick.

Like almost every round HAHA

And i've got a new haircut!

By the way, the title of the post include two synonyms for outing :D

Consecutive Outing Day 1

BBQ was fun today!

Of course again it rained, but THANK GOD! 

It wasn't for too long.

And I realise everytime i try to start a bbq it rains.

The last time i did at my own home it did too.

Cheng Hao said i'm not fated to start bbqs!

Haha but i'm not believing in fate, God is whom i trust!

Next bbq: Wed iMedia Chalet! HAHA

Ok my fire not big lah!

Joanne's bigger lah!

Traitors! (HAHAHA)

Cheng Hao to the rescue and made the fire super hot.

"Consuming Fire

FAN into FLAMES"

HAHAHA

Ok i better get to sleep.

Dental plus another day of outing.

Guys the pictures are on facebook alr, i've alr tagged some of you haha!

I find this word super amusing:

dastard \DAS-terd\, noun:

a mean coward

Music

If reading is nourishment for your mind, then music is nourishment for your soul.

Why is everything so empty all of a sudden?

Is it because the relationship is too distant?

Or is it because i haven't been doing what i'm supposed to be.

I don't want it this way.

Sure i would want it the way i had in the past;

But Greater Things have yet to come.

And i believe in that.

To all dec camp superteens, for an official site where you can interact with one another more efficiently instead of lynette's(HAHA)/enqi/my blog, here's the link.

Keep your suggestions coming in! Enqi is the current blogmaster.

Resource outing was fun haha!

Especially air hockey.

You get to see a whole lot of priceless faces.

Emerge night was awesome!

Performances, powerful word and strong presence.

Haha and elevate your name dance! 

Ending time only i dancing HAHA!

I forgive, I forgive, I forgive.

From OLD to NEW

So yesterday, Marc and Lynette were both trying to stuff me full with their surprises at the Old Hong Kong Cafe in katong.

But thanks guys for the treats!

Haha!

The Godzilla was monstrous!

So much chocolate until can compete with Cadbury bar.

And the Happy Punch made me happy cos it tasted like alcohol haha!

But the cocktail was sickening, sorry i'm not a fan of preserved fruit.

What else, hmm oh yes, the super surprises:

Lotus roots patty!?

Unique dish i must say, the meat has the lotus aroma all around it.

Think of it as a hamburger with lotus roots replaced as the buns.

Very interesting.

Not something for the faint-hearted though haha.

Stuffed Green Pepper?!

Now this is really a strong smelling dish.

The green pepper is very, zesty.

So its something that will really wake you up.

The meat is quite tender and not overcooked.

Minced very well.

And everything is soaked in a generous helping of black pepper sauce.

For more intake on the reviews, please visit Lynette's blog for the video coverage.

Today's locking lesson was fun, and probably the easiest dance class i've ever attended.

Very simple, yet so stylish.

I think locking is going to be my fav dance style.

Easier that breakdance and c-mtv(HAHA DARRYN&YZ!)

New entry to mg: Woonie

And my scarf and jackets are back!

Wonder if got taiwan aura around them haha.

A short trip to spotlight after that to check out capital required.

XIN WANG after that!

Yesterday LAO WANG, today XIN WANG XIANG GANG CHA CAN TING

HAHAHA.

Maggie mee lolzmonger.

Alright tmr is resource outing plus EDGE! night.

Busy busy.

Still have to call up Waraku! tmr.

So many things, so little time.

How all very familar, hmm~

A talkshow tv host, a stuffed green pepper, a little alcohol and old hong kong cafe.

Just to keep things going

Camouflage myself from enqi who's out with a vengeance.

Haha

Oh and i wanted to blog about saturday night/sunday morning MISadventures.

HAHAHA

Ed, Mell and me waited like 2 stops before alighting and cabbed to chomp! chomp!

And by that time was no oyster omelette and satay bee hoon.

Ah well, but at least there was stingray! Haha shoiking

Next few days are planning planning planning.

Busy week next week, multiple outings plus Candlelight service.

All are invited for service!

And God i pray, i really need a open door.

Camp co, wasn't expected.

Oh well, but i think it was almost a flawless performance.

Well done resource!
