Well, here is me updating before life changes around soon in a few hours time.

Firstly, i want to send my condolences to joshua and eunice and to the family.

Next, i want to thank someone for being that listening ear i need when i needed. Providing me with the advice i needed and a different perspective in my situation and always reminding me to turn back to jesus. (: (tho this person has shortly just entered my life not long ago.)

Daddy god is really amazing. His word is ever living and he has never fail to surprise me with his word. For example, there was a situation i was in. Then the next day, when i read daily devo, it was the word for me. So specific. Jesus has also shown me his wisdom that in a split second he can give that to me too.

I can finally drive well, but my mum still dont let me to drive to school this fri. Cos she say i will be alone in the car and no one to be my extra eye to watch the road for me. ): Sobs!

Thank you to my gd fren who re-entered my life not long ago and gave me 2 nice rides in one of my fave cars. (: this fren has also been the one who is always the first to wish me. And this yr cos the need to sleep early hinders this routine, my fren called to give an advance greeting. Thanks! (:

And this yr, my bff( best fren forever) is going to give me a surprise! haha...i have no idea wat it is but i figured out there would be a surprise...so its no really one. But its the thot that counts. (: thanks in advance.

Someone did rmb abt it, i also did wish that person did. Haha...but sadly this person is also asleep now.

Anyways, tml mornin i have sch. and going out with evangeline! haha...after her driving. She left only 5 lessons to go after tml. All the best babe!

And another of my super gd fren also pass her driving. I am so happy for her. Cos i made her retake after her first failure. (: glad i did nag and make her retake. haha

All the best to my bro who is taking his major exam this yr. Make jesus the center of ur situation! trust in him and let his abundance of grace fall on you.

And all the best to my juniors taking their A levels next week! (:

Finally, my twin and I are finally turning 19. So offically today is our last day as 18. I sent her an sms this morning. and she replied such sweet things...cos i said something sweet..Haha...19 is something. haha...i shall just leave it into jesus hands for my new year. Love you twin. And Happy blessed birthday to you! (:

+ AMEN

The day after da jie left. It was fine at first. Then i went for my first ever arrow service. Haha. It was AWESOME. I didnt attend previous TWO years due to my hectic JC life. Really no 'me' time, let alone enough sleep. I kept falling sick cause there wasnt enough rest time. Well, those days are long gone. (:

I really like the song 'with everything' by Hillsongs United. It was there and then, when the song was played repeatedly, I felt the love of the lord. I guess i was 'touched by him'. At that very moment, tears started to roll down. Uncontrollably. At the same time, i was partly sad as i missed da jie, cos she just left. I was wondering how was she. But that moment went as fast as it came. After that no tears. Lol. It was like just that very moment. (*ashamed*)

Well, this week, i kinda of slack my way through the week. Had throbbing headache. And i slept alot. :( I am suppose to complete my hwk.. But here i am...haizs. (a reminder to da jie to start on her long essay soon. (: ) And the week is coming to an end soon. and another week is going to arrive with more things seeking my attention. Lol. Lord, i just live my weeks, days and into your hands. Amen.

I had a heart to heart to talk with jia hui. I was telling her things that i didnt quite understand. Thought i would get novel answers but sadly not. They were the same ones i heard from others. But thanks for the listening ear. =)

When you have a benchmark, you would expect the following one to meet that benchmark or it would surpass it. Right? When its stated complicated, means it is complicated right? Lol. I was reminded of certain things as i talk abt them. These faded awhile back sadly, but i can remember bits and pieces now. I just want to know the answer of whether was it or is it the same way as i think. Never mind the answer. Since the wait for it was long, any longer would not hurt. haha.

In a months time, annual day is going to come. However, i am not very looking forward in this month as i was in the same month last year. Maybe cause it is due to the A's last year. Well, i honestly dunno who will remember cause people i thought would remember didnt. The people i wished so so much to hear from didnt. But cant be help, studies took over all of us and was the top priority. I dont want to think too much. (sudden sadness sets in)

I wished you didnt thug the fragile thread in the main machine. So many walls that have been built up around it, suddenly a thug of the thread just sets thing haywire. (just a bit only.) How i wish...i know i should not....i hope the thread will break and therefore the system will not go haywire. Everything back to normal.

Many things i see, how i wished either i would have done better or make things better. But i know i need to look forward. Haha. (dont worry, i am fine (: ) I wonder where has that leader in me went to? I kinda of not very involved in university. Lol. I am not sure why too. Maybe cause i am too used to the school system and i am having a hard time to adapt? (stubborn me..lol) I know i need to adapt fast and better. And set goals. and etc...lol. Sometimes it easier said than done.

I cant rmb what i wan to typed...but so far thats all. I just entrust to jesus. Amen. =)

+ AMEN

Omgosh....sorry for not updating for such a long long long time. I was very busy with literally alot of stuff. But i just want to thank god for seeing me through these past few days. I really got to experience his abundance of grace in my life. And the best thing is...i want more of it! So Jesus....just pour more of it into my life and i will greatly accept it. Amen.!



Where do i start? Transition in school for some subjects is still abit tough for me. But i am trusting Jesus to see me through and give me wisdom. Especially after ytd lunch devo, i got to learn abt breaking down more of my mental barriers. I am still learning how to let go and let god. Easier said than done. Many things i know what i should do, but sometimes i just cant. Well, shall just take baby steps. Just like my PBF tutorial which i sometimes seem to struggle cause my answers dont match what the teacher expect in the answers. Mine is like half fill...i dunno why but i didnt thought of putting the points she said in my answers when i was doing tutorial...I just pray that i will be able to write up to the expectations of the examiners. Exams are next march....oooo....time fly pass so fast.

Speaking abt lunch devo....i met a great bunch of ppl from my church caregroup. I was brought in by my fellow server and senior in my ministry serving. Ytd was my 2nd lunch devo, and this week will be my 1st ever arrow service...cos i didnt went when i was in JC. Oops...haha...I cant wait. =) And will be doing CIP with them next sat. =) weeheehee

Amist all these events, i had more events that happen. I had 2 major external exams back to back...( to me they are major)....I was so super freak out and nervous for both of them. I initally thought i would fail both. Cause for one though i had months of hard practice...i freak out in the room last min. You know me...i freak out means really screwed up. But praise the Lord, I passed! I was really very grateful and happy for his works. The other exam, same case...i had months of weekly practice...up till the last min, there were still errors. Plus it was raining that day...and i just keep praying...that till my turn it would stop. Cause i will make more errors in the rain for the exam. And praise the lord, he stop the rain and gave a super good weather for me during my exam. And after i was done with the test, the rain started to pour slightly. And i passed that test too...by the grace of god. And had a wonderful celebration for it cum my bro's birthday dinner. =) So now i am starting new grade and i hope to find a new good piano..waiting for christmas sale. haha

When i stress up, i think i tend to eat alot? Like ytd, i went on food attack, i kept eating and eating...omgosh...after i was abt to retired for the night, i realised i ate too much. So today i went running. Been running on and off. (if i didnt run, my mum will nag at me) haha. My stamina had a drastic drop since last year. But oh well, no PE teachers like Mr lim around to train us. Even though i tried running, boom, my old problems came back. Now its all 4 joints, both knees and both ankles...shoots. It hurts alternately. So i cant run excessively and too fast. But i want to shed off the excessive weight that i gain. Haha. However, is it worth it at the risk of injurying my knees and ankles...thats the question i got to ask myself.

(sorry that the post is so long)


Also, I FINALLY met up with yuh yiing jie. Omgosh, 1.5yrs....We had a fun fun time hang out together. But sadly it was the only time. Cause tml she will be leaving Spore to further her studies. Sobs...but she will be back in dec..so i can see her again. =) I wont be to sad. Thank god for skype. =) I am going to miss her so much too. All my dear dear frens close to me are all overseas. Next to leave will be gai. Haizs...All slowly leaving me behind. Promise you all will come back. We need to skype more often however we are all so busy with sch work. May we find time.
My hols are only in next jun or july...so long...no semester breaks too...cos its a one yr one sem thingy. Haha. I just have to work hard all the way, but not to worry...there is always jesus. =)


Anything else that i left out? Hmm...oh...been taking bus with thinkalike as often as i can. But these 2 weeks kinda of busy. Sorry. x) Oh, i went bestie house to play with skye and lex. Haha...lol..lex likes to make me pat and hold its paws. And omgosh...skye has grown into a super huge dog since the last time i saw him. Oh, i went out with evangeline too. It was fun too. really enjoyed myself. =) And cherri's wii makes my arms ache but it was fun too. =) (didnt know she stay near my cousin house..haha)Well, thats all i guess. i am really taking everything step by step and constantly reminding myself and pointing myself back to jesus.

God bless. =)

+ AMEN

Well, school has already started. It is 2 weeks into the new school term. So here is a quick update of my life.

I had a wonderful time rollerblading at ECP with christine and zy. Took lots of artistic pictures. Haha. And lots of funny ones too. I just love the sea breeze but after awhile, we all felt the sticky salt feeling on our skin. Haha. I met some of my friends while blading. Haha. What a small world. It was a great workout for the 3 of us, blading for 2 hrs. Then walking all the way to the jetty(almost) and back to the bus stop near tao nan school to head home. And for that week, i did excerise alot. Cause later that week, i went swimming with baobei on fri. Woah, it took me a lot of stamina. I was breatheless in a very short time. For just one hr, i got tan back into the original shade of my skin tone. Super burnt. Haha. Plus i was so careless to forget to apply sunblock on the face! haha..wasted.

But now i havnt excerise for like 2 weeks? Haha...but i did alot of walking during my weekend getaway. Plus i am down with blocked nose, so cant really excerise much.


During that week, we had FOB (bash). It was my first time clubbing. So experience was ...i dunno...not nice? Its not really my kind of thing. I saw a few SRJCians...was so happy to see them. Haha..and danced away. Some Ppl from my sch(sr) commented that i was the least person they expect to see me at that kind of place. Haha..Thats very true. Its my first and last time clubbing..But if my good friends wan to go, i dont mind going with them. I heard my sis has a great time clubbing at aus with her frens...It was her first trip to such a place too i think. I wan to go with her next time too...haha...

Well, during that night, lots of things happen. I am not going to recount them cause they are not worth to recount. Just that this culture dont suit me. Haha...but i dont mind going with my very good friends when they are all back. I think the experience will be different from what i experience that night.

One thing i learnt from sch is that..i find it hard to make new frens. Cause we dont have class system and no projects or tutorials. As our lesson is lect cum tutorial. So i am abit not used to it. I miss my jc days alot. I MISS ALL MY FRIENDS! All my close ones left for different paths..but i know we all miss each other dearly.(my sis, twin, gf, kor, bestie, thinkalike, someone, gai, xh, arini, christine, agnes, baobei, yuanlin, and all my gd gd frens- sorry i didnt name them all..abit alot haha)

Finally thanksgiving day approach. Haha. I went in late. So i only saw half of the concert. And i sat next to the VP. Wahha...abit scary cos we arnt familar with her. Mr tan performance was shocking...cos i never seen him dance b4. Well, my batch still thinks the 1st concert was the best...as we didnt know wat to expect and it was a fresh idea(teachers performing). But still the effort is there. Thanks for the performance teachers!

After that my class went for soya bean..most eat grass jelly cos the weather was hot. Then we went to mac's at kovan. talk and talk until 10.45pm? I went home quickly to pack my bag for the trip to Meleka. It was a fun trip..with so much walking and eating and visiting nice places and SHOPPING! I love this particular store there. that lim woan and me keep visiting whenever we could. We just buy and buy at every chance we got into the store...Haha...I love how the currency of ours is strong there hence able to find everything cheap..haha. (i wan a nice beret hat) haha..cos i look like britans olden times newspaper boy. =)

Then its back to sch. Sch is average with some subjects harder to cope. haha. And omgosh...during my hols i got an sms abt my piano exam.! its a day b4 my driving exam! How stress can i be man. Well, cos i went for hols, didnt touch the piano, my pieces standard drop! omgosh...i so panicky and nervous and i dunno wat...i need to find back my standard fast to play well for the exam. Jesus help!!!!! and driving too..i am not driving in the circuit well...and i seem to have some bad habits like forgetting to do this and that for driving. Oh Lord help me!

Well, thats all. I will keep praying for my exams. And pls pray for me too, pray that i will do extremely well for both upcoming exams. Amen. =)

+ AMEN

The Zone Concert 2009...one word to describe it..AWESOME!

I love love love Hillsong UNITED. I love their songs, so much meaning to them. Cause it was written with jesus in their presence. As in they are such god moving people, god filled love too.

Pastor Judah Smith was a wonderful and animated and funny preacher. He has a wide vocabulary and uses his descriptive words well. Awesome. He sings and acts well too. When i visit Seattle next time, i will make a trip to his church to hear him preach. =)

The only concert that i get to jump and be high so much and yet filled with god's love is Hillsongs concert. So much energy. Did you know we jumped for like 2 hours plus? We practically jumped non stop for every prasie songs. And our hands we lifted up always (except during sermon) to sing prasies and worship Jesus. ( you wont understand unless you are a christian and know hillsong united and their concerts)

Bestie and me said after the concert, woah, we were sticky man. Haha..Cos jump too much. BUT, i didnt feel any tiredness in me at all. I still wanted more of the concert. ENCORE....
Both of us , legs and arms were toned after jumping and raising our hands up high for JESUS. We shed calories too...=) But not as much as a 10km run. Haha. I felt refreshed and afresh. I felt new and i now know why i love jesus so much. I really basked in his presence and love ytd. It was wonderful. After 2 yrs in a hectic jc life, not able to attend youth service or the zone concert, i was able to 'jump' out all that was boottled up in me. Haha.

I really like praise and worship alot. Though sermon is necessary too, but i feel god show me his goodness more through praise and worship. I can go on and on with praise and worship and not feel tired. How i wish i can live that kind of life. Haha.

Anyways, we jumped till we had sitches( pain when muscle is stretched too much) but it went off as soon as it came. We also sang till our throats were sore. Haha. But it was all worth it. =)

I told bestie, if we had the opportunity to go Sydney, i will die die want to attend at least one service in Hillsong church. Thats why i like to go Aus, i can visit frens and attend hillsong services...their praise and worship are nice. My church ones are as good. =)

Looking forward to the next hillsong concert and zone concert and pray that i will have a chance to visit sydney and attend the service there. Meanwhile, i will jus have to settle for their CDs, and dvds. haha...I have most but not all. Haha.

+ AMEN

After the eclipse, i went out with zy. Suppose to meet mei too, but before the movie start, she texted saying she wasnt feeling well. So it was ok.

Zy and me choose to watch transformers, actually it was me lah. Haha, i wanted to watch the animation. I like it alot. Lots of actions, very cool but there was one point of time that i felt the action was abit too much of it. But overall it was nice. I heard from zy that guys watch that movie for megan fox, i was like..expected? I watch it for its amazing transformation and i love the 2 fast cars in the show. Wee...

Before we went in, we had 30mins b4 the show start, so we took photos with movie posters, haha. But we didnt take with my fave harry potter cut outs. After the movie, we went to find the harry potter gang, but an uncle places another huge poster in front of it, Astro boy. Haha. In the end, i took a photo of astro and zy together. haha.

Then we went taking alot of photos, everywhere we went, expect for certain shops, cos there is the 'no camera' rule in place. Zy agrees that the photos that i take are more, like artistic and better. Those that i help him take are better. In conclusion my photography skills are not bad. The picture comes out well. Haha. =)

You can see on fb, those pictures that has him, the camera skills are better. =) Haha. I hope someday i can hone this small small talent of mine.

Overall, we both had a fun time walking around, and ps he shop more then me. I wasnt shopping at all. Haha. He is , i jus realise , an impulsive buyer. I helped him saved quite abit ytd already. haha. my good old fren...haha..know him since sec 2! Hahha.

Piano skills has improved abit..but i still didnt practise much this week..shh..=p

+ AMEN

Ytd 22th july, a special day indeed. =)

Well, happy birthday to Limmy, Jeffery and eden(cousin, i forgot to sms him ytd...sorry)

Earth's best present for their birthday: Total solar eclipse.

Ytd, i woke up at 8am jus to watch the coverage of the solar eclipse. Not used to waking up so early yet..cos i wake up at 11am plus almost everyday. Haha. So i start to drag my pillow and blanket out to the living room. I was so tired that if i had long flight of stairs, i would roll down them. Jus like how my frens tease me as marble. Haha. As i walk to the living room, i saw mum at my fave tv spot. So i plonked myself in the middle of the room. The weather was quite cold and it started to rain. So i knew spore would not be able to see the partial eclipse.

As i watch the china coverage on the solar eclipse, i like the way how some of the hosts were hosting at different parts of china. I like to hear them speak in chinese. Haha. As they show part of the eclipse movement, they also took the chance to promote their city. Pretty nice cultural information shown.

Finally the full solar eclipse came, as the moon covered the sun, as the line of light went from a smiley shape to abit left (hard to explain) then finally a ring of light. But i didnt get to see the diamond shape eclipse. But i saw how the light was dim in the parts of china. It became total darkness like night time when it was daytime. So the experience was an unusual one. Jus like the sky turned dark due to no sunlight, temperature dropped to abt 30 degrees in china which was experiencing summer at the time abt 37 degrees. So it mus have been alot cooler for them. The pandas there also reacted differently( more active, while some animals went to their feeding areas awaiting for their dinner) according to the keepers there during the eclipse.

Whereas for me, when my eyes saw that the sky turn dark, my natural reaction was to go back to sleep. And i slept for another 20mins, just in time to wake up for the moon to move away from the sun. Haha. (mum caught me falling back to sleep) Haha. it was such a natural reaction.

+ AMEN

Longest solar eclipse tml. Hope the weather will be fine. I am going to wake up early to watch the show. I tend to wake up at a very late time. Bad...this will affect me when sch starts as most lessons are in the morning. Haha. Need to have a good habit of waking up early!

Today (21st) was investiture. But guess what? All the traditions werent follow. Like no council song, no sit and stand cue on stage. So no formal!! No confirmed position of respective excos.
No pass down of council badges. Some of our badges have been passed down for at least 4 batches of councilors. The president's one is already 21 yrs old. Going on to 22 already!

So many things has changed. Then what for the traditions? And 20th didnt go cause we missed the RSVP date. If we go, i think we will all be disappointed. But i heard 16th and 18th went, they quite enthu de.


Anyways, this weekend got a 'date' with bestie. Haha. We going THE ZONE Concert 09! Haha. Cant wait to have praise and worship with Hillsong United. =) Going to rock the house down. Lol.

Thats all for now. Byee. =)

+ AMEN


23:52

My mind cant seem to rmb the things crucial to me at this point of time. Like, i cant rmb my studies like maths and econs. Necessary for my uni term.

I cant rmb my parking skills cos too long never revise them. (sorry i am not as gd a driver as u are.) Some more i got told off by my teacher. Sometimes he was right but sometimes he was so not.

Anyway, my thinkalike's dad going to buy him a car soon. Yeah. I dont care..he is going to drive me back frm sch. and if possible to sch everyday. Since his camp near my sch. Lol. (ps we are jus very very gd frens and nothing more. =) )

Piano ..haizs...suddenly today while practising, i screw up my notes. But i almost found out that i have made a mistake in one key that i didnt know. But still i cant rmb my scales and pieces well. Haizs...

I pray to daddy god to help me be able to rmb impt things in my brain. And help me rmb them and not be forgetful. Amen.

Haha...i so need to put in effort. Jia you! =)

+ AMEN
