ytd was a very epic day cos a great big deluge swept over the bukit timah area cos God rained upon us and it was very bad and people suffered from geographical immobility cos they cannot easily relocate to the exam venue. and people had to take alternative transports like ships and sampans. anw i smsed the entire caregroup wrongly cos he made it in time for a later paper IT WAS VERY EMBARASSING haha oh no oh no please do not flick me away when you see me for making you worry unnecessarily. D:
and every one arrived very early today even though today’s econs only started at 2.30 so there was alot of people in school so funny. and it’s quite a slap in a face thinking about how we laughed at the way they said in case of flood you can take your exams at the nearest test centre.
yep today was econs and thus the end of it..this week was tough to get by~~~ econs p2 was oh God do such difficult papers even exist. physics was very kind but when you are careless it mitigates everything so i wasnt very happy this week sigh but i bought yakult hehehe.
okay yep 3 more papers i can feel the end coming pretty much faster than i thought so thank God (:
"17 You may say to yourself, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me.” 18 But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today."
1. there was ministry awareness drive today at church so we were supposed to like look around and stuff and i was convicted so i joined creatives (illustratorzxzzz) with louisa cos calean was like “portfolio? show them your sermon book luh” then i’m like hahaha quite funny. and ruiyi and shijun joined creatives (writers) so funny shijun said give them gp bulletin for portfolio.
2. i overslept today and sigh my physics regressed and deteriorated.
3. oh yeah leon told me after practice that szemin brought 3 co guys and asked if i would want to go talk to them or something then i was like “hmm if it’s ge i wouldn’t know them” but anyway it wasn’t it was the 3 most retarded juniors of the hcco commitee 09-10 francis, gao tian and dominic! so i was like I: i hope God works through their lives in the most most intricate ways, to let them understand God’s goodness in all the times, actually life’s so simple God’s so simple you just have to open the door to let Him in.
4. okay time to move on and carry out my nightly activity which is to study hahaha.
edit: 5. anyway i think that the more you complain about alevels and how useless it is it just shows how concerned you are with it… people who don’t care just take it and move on.
teehee i was more than lucky yesterday! even though i was quite paranoid/sad/worried after math sigh. and at night i ended up checking the answers for math paper 2 with the worked solutions cos shijun and i were talking about it it wasn’t a very pleasant experience cos i’m a chicken with no guts so i cringed everytime i scroll down a question. sigh i’m very careless it’s my downfall… anyway my exams are all in the hall i’m going to faint/suffocate/die.
anyways we watched paranormal activity the movie was very paranormal cos the woman got dragged out of bed the man slammed into the camera. (did i just spoil it ah hah but i dont rly care) but it was a low budget movie 15000 only!! but earned like 100 million usd or something. if all you do is to sit at home and think and daydream about getting rich maybe you can try filming a low budget movie and make 100 million. that’s when you can truly void a levels and render it useless.
hahaha after exams ruiyi says we can film at his house cos his house has all the swinging chandeliers and part of the ceiling can be removed to see the monster living in the attic. but we must first learn how to drag a woman out of bed and find a male lead who is willing to slam himself against the camera probably for like 10 times including NG. hahaha.
1. haha i got to burst a balloon today cos i have one paper down! yep i burst it with a tiny screw driver hahaha i was really happy about gp being over, because it’s like, perennial stress. everytime i read TIME i have to pay attention to names and it sucks when famous people’s names tend to be pretty crazy/odd, every time i read about some general issue i have to wikipedia it so it becomes part of my examples base, every time i see strange and cheem words i have to search on dictionary.com for the meaning! NO MORE. my vocab is going to degenerate from today onwards but i don’t really care eh eh eh.
2. i thought that my life is terrible cos i have to sit through long and difficult papers like math but i thought it must suck more to walk up and down the hall with stacks of foolscap papers in your hand silently for 3 hours.
This is my prayer in the desert And all that’s within me feels dry This is my prayer in the hunger in me My God is a God who provides
And I will bring praise I will bring praise No weapon forged against me shall remain
I will rejoice I will declare God is my victory and He is here

A levels start on Tuesday and it’s scary, panic-inducing etc… but i guess instead of adding to the hype and the tension by DECLARING WAR with alot of exclamation marks like my excited self, it’s time to perhaps dwell more upon the fact that as christians we always have a reason to praise, to sing, to be joyful. This song is my favourite song (well one of them) and it’s empowering and encouraging to be reminded of God’s strength in times of need, so do take some time off and watch the video above and remember God, is a God who provides. imo it’s the best solace one can take and whoever wants this song to blast throughout the exam period talk to me, and i’ll send it to you.
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame Rising up again I bless Your name You are my all in all When I fall down You pick me up When I am dry You fill my cup You are my all in all
(haha weekian and randy if you are reading this you guys are very retarded! -.-)
when i look back upon my days in hwachong i’ll probably be laughing at myself and the silly prayers i make, the times when i prayed so fervently just so i will catch the bus on time, to watch tv or to hope that God will divinely intervene during exams and give me the perfect word in gp or the sudden epiphany during math, or to just make games which i prepared for care group right, etc etc. yesterday i went back to school for caregroup and i didn’t like the way the school was so quiet and how it ended without my knowledge… and how you can’t stay at a certain phase in life forever, every place is just but an interchange (haha idk), you decide where you are going to turn, and you keep moving on and leave a bit of you behind everywhere you go and the way there’s no destination of some sort there is only a journey.
thank you leon and szemin for the balloons!! i appreciate the thought behind it alot just that i/all of us probably looked pretty ludicrous (or is that part of the agenda!) taking bus with a hanger and 5 balloons dangling from it D:
In Christ alone will I glory Though I could pride myself in battles won For I’ve been blessed beyond measure And by His strength alone I overcome Oh I could stop and count successes Like diamonds in my hands But those trophies could not equal To the grace by which I stand
Brian Littrell - In Christ Alone
hah hah hah i found out recently that brian littrell whom i know first as a contemporary christian singer is from backstreet boys! so that’s pretty cool right?
