[ 45. Sars Hols Day 3: Tuition ]
Today just don't feel like a saturday eh?
Well, it's like, i went for tuition today... after such a long break.
So after tuition, went for lunch at white sands.
Was reading the papers, and they were talking about having found a new SARS index case...
so haiz... it means more people are going to get infected.
Then when i got home... decided to log on despite exceeding the internet hours...
well, i'm not paying for them anyway. =p
So nonetheless... i saw xianwei online, so decided to ask him about some stuff about the team exce.
It launch into a chat nonetheless...
can see that he's really worried about a lot of things...
especially when there're a lot of responsibilities.
about the facis, about his studies, about the whole project.
Being the overall coordinator isn't easy man.
I really pray that God will deliver him during this time...
though he's not a believer...
i still pray that God's mercy be upon him,
that xianwei and his team will be able to handle all aspects of their lives well,
especially in this time of constraints and uncertainties.
Let us show the teachers that despite being hard pressed...
we can do it too. =) Amen!
Yupz... and also i'd pray that through this time
God's light will be able to shine in some of these people's life...
and they'll come to know the Truth as well... amen...
God... really thank you for this love.
That's what christianity is all about. |

[ 44. Sars Hols Day 2: District Prayer Meeting ]
oh hi!!!!
haha... i think i posted a short one yesterday right?
yupz... today i shall make the effort to write longer k? =)
Well... today was actually quite a boring day (as usual).
So it's like... jason didn't tell me what to prepare for spiritual group today...
so i thought i'll flip through my old teachings and prepare one of it for discussion.
So actually what hit me was, since we are on a sowing spree,
so why not share a lesson out of the seed church camp?
It was a camp prior to our year of intensive sowing and evaxing...
yupz. i decided on the characteristics of an effective sower...
and i prepare... and prepare... and prepare.
Then jason decided to call me, just before i was about to leave.
Then he told me to go through the m&ms....!!!
And i was like.... oh... ok.
haha... yupz, actually i was more relieved than disappointed.
That will actually give me more time to prepare the teaching in future,
and also, at least i'm given a direction for today's spiritual group.
So today's caregroup was rather good i'd say...
even though we only had 3 persons, but i'd say we had a great time of sharing.
I thank God for sending his Holy Spirit to guide me... yupz. Thank you God!!!
So eventually... we then go meet wenjiang after that.
Then came another shock... got restructuring. =/
Well, at least in PTN.
hmm... changes and changes. Firstly jieyun called me last night to tell me that my shepherd has been changed from marcus to jason.
Then now this... oh yah. Weilong and myself are now like leading a group almost a size of a caregroup individually, and according to jason, we'll have to run of own individual spiritual groups now. haiz.... and i've lost 2 of my pals in church to the other group. sharks. haiz.... so now it's myself, bowen, nicholas, jan and yongding to be in a group, and weilong, enghow (my two pals), hongyao and kangwei in the other. Awww... i miss them!!! never mind... i'll make sure that my group grows strong with one another now. hee... =)
So yupz... a few surprises today... but it's ok.
Let's pray that i'll move strong in my relationship with God.
Like what ps jeff said... that's what it only matters.
everything else will then fall into place naturally. =p
so nitez now... ciao!~ |

[ 42. Sars Hols ]
hey hey... i think by now many should know that all schools up to JC level is to be suspended until 6th april due to the uprising number of severe acute respiratory syndrome. It's like... school's out, ya, should be happy... but there's a lot of implications due to this. My first reaction was... "oh sharks". It's very scary.... VERY SCARY. It's like, i was asking God, do things have to develop to such a stage, such measures to be taken nationwide? Gosh... God... what's becoming of this world? The orientation finale was about to start just now, all the former OGLs were invited back to watch... then the vp mrs tan went on stage to make an announcement... her face and her tone really prepared me. I was like... "don't tell me...", sadly, it became reality. Although there was immediate outburst of cheers.... but i know the atmosphere was more of sadness and scariness...
what will happen to all our plans? Common tests were to commence next week, that will definitely be postponed. And what about team excellence? That will also be postponed. For that actually we were more glad, cause it was a blessing in disguise that we have more time to prepare before the common tests. But what about SYF... if that cannot be postponed, it's really bad. How will i be able to find time to prepare for SYF? Team excellence and common tests will take up most of my saturdays and 1 whole week, leaving me with less than 5 sessions of practice. So how am i going for competition like that? ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sianz...
Just now the bunch of OGLs we just went for dinner at bk together... all of us felt something, whether was it for the orientation, or for the harsh reality. It's really taking something out in us... we had a good time of dinner just now, with much talking and interaction... i would almost call it fellowship. haha... =p We were all not willing to leave until we made a stand to leave at 845pm... haha. We were like so upset... all of us just want to come to school! Even though we now can don't attend lessons, but it's like we really enjoy the company we have in school... and suddenly ask us to cut school, which takes up the bulk of our time each day... what are we supposed to do? study at home? it takes out all the fun in studying. That's for classmates and schoolmates are for... we really can't bear to not see one another in school ya know. Haiz...
I sincerely pray that God will deliver us of this epidemic... we need the deliverance. God, pour upon your hands of healing and cleansing on this nation. On this continent. We are helpless.... there's only so much humans can do. really. |

[ 38. Lunch Period ]
It's like.... lunch period now.
well... kinda pissed at two of the ppl in the class for what they did in canteen...
don't ask what they did... can't be bothered to mention.
kinda hurting. to me.
Ya... i know i don't exactly like my class and i show it...
doesn't mean that they have to treat me that way...
Well, never mind.
At least the girls are nicer people... haha... =)
Well.. it's mid day tuesday... later on got PE.
I think we're going to run 2.4 if i'm not wrong...
Sianz again. haha... dunno if i can meet my previous timing.
Yesterday i reached home at 1140pm.
Actually i took a train with suraj... that's why it took me so long.
Yupz... he was sharing to me regarding lotsa things...
About the group, about his sheep, about how he feels.
I really thank God for some things that i learnt from him... =)
It's like... it's the few times which i talked to him for so long ya know?
And i've called my shep yesterday...
i really wanna settle the differences and unacceptance with him.
Hope that God will really lead me through this period...
God knows that i'm a very emotion-led person, and sometimes insecure as well...
i've come to a point in my life that without God...
I think i'd die.
Throughout today i've been thinking about a few people...
Bowen... i don't know what's Jason's plan for him...
whether if i'm supposed to take him up as a sheep or will jason take him personally.
But i rememberd when he came in, i took so much ownership over him...
but it's been like kinda diluted now eh? Yupz...
Pray that if he ever becomes my sheep, i'd be able to recharge my relationship with him and bring him astep closer to God.
Then about Derek... he's very much like me in many many areas.
Our emotional personality... our need for relationships... our optimism and child-likeness.
I'm really thankful for this brother...
Yupz. The many smses we exchanged and times that we talked...
it's cool... =)
And i've heard from michael and suraj on how he had come to know christ...
how to grow... i'm really really ashamed of myself.
If only i had such desire to grow last time...
If only.
So today... i really want to pray to God for my own growth.
I've procrastinated enough.
It's time to move on. |

hey hey! I'm home at last!
Well, today's the first day of school and things i'd say went pretty well. =)
First and foremost... i have 2 new classmates.
Yupz, they are repeat students... but it's ok, there's not much difference anyway.
They are william and yujie... a guy and a gal. =)
Kinda good and happy to see the class getting bigger.
Well, lessons were pretty slow.
Guess the teachers were empathatic about the post-holz blues.
But a few things were quite tippy around...
like the SARS thing.
The school's kinda on high alert for this.
Cuz juz a month back a gal just recovered from TB.
No link... yes... but it's like... sickness is in the air.
Ah.... the team exce proposal is APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally... after all my 6 hours on the proposal yesterday...
it's a job well done, i'd say.
Mr teng had only a few comments, but it's generally a few small changes. =)
But it's all to God!!! Thank God for answering my prayer!!! YeaH!!!
So anyway, not much to worry about the program now.
Only the briefing and preparation to go. =)
Yupz... but went to find xianwei and zhehong,
and found that we have a new problem... the tee shirt design.
Apparently the school doesn't like it.
So now really pray that the two of them, i think still in school,
will be able to come out with a new design to give to the supplier by tomorrow...
or else we won't be able to get it by 5th April.
God... help us!!! We're helpless... remember?
Only you can dictate these things...
and i know it's your every intention to bless us. =)
C'mon, give it to us. =p

[ 33. TEC Meeting ]
Yupz... juz got home.
Today, we had the meeting... the team exce one.
To think of a war game or anything along that line to replace the sucky program we had.
Only zhehong, marvin, xianwei and myself turned up... along with some publicity people.
Shaik came too. but had to leave earlier for wedding dinner at night. (not her wedding lahz.)
They had to do their noticeboard... so not much help for us anyway.
The noticeboard very nice... look like spiderweb. Zhehong and his team really did a good job of it.
Anyway, we thought of a lot of things... as well as mr teng's possible reactions to them.
So in the end, we had no choice but to settle for something similar to station games.
But the juicy bits will come in the form of presentation.
Like what zhehong says... what matters is the packaging.
Well, we only started planning at 12 noon...
digress and come back... digress and come back...
plus crapping about how gay someone's face looks...
and how touchy two of the guys were to each other...
and many dirty jokes later...
we were barely halfway done when we went for lunch at 330 pm. =/
We finished the entire planning of only that mass game at 645 pm.
Gross... we 4 guys had most of our brain cells killed.
Pray that mr teng would have no comments about it when xianwei presents it to him tml.
If not... i'll see what marvin will do to him. haha.
Then after that, i went down vs to visit their camp.
Quite bad i'd say... none of the seniors were there except mervin.
Cuz i arranged to meet him mah...
Then we left after feelin bored. No heart to stay.
Went toa payoh for dinner... and starbucks...
Glad to have some time to catch up with him. Long time never saw him. =)
Ok... think i'm gonna go rest soon... tml is my rest day... but need to start working on my homework and the proposal if mr teng finally shut up and approves... =p |

[ 32. Quiz ]
Why? Why is your life going the way it is? You, my dear, tend to dwell on the past, and sometimes have a negative outlook on almost everything. The shadows of what was tend to haunt you and affect everything you do in life. You most likely have lost a loved one. As time goes on, however, you will find peace and happiness, or perhaps someone in your future rather than past will lift you up to where you belong. Life's given you so many troubles, but everything will work out in the end, and you'll soon be granted the perfect life you deserve. Which Final Fantasy Theme Song Is YOUR Theme? |

[ 30. Dry Run ]
yupz yupz... couldn't update the blog due to some stupid server prob yesterday...
and last night... i got home like 1030pm... cool.
Thank God mom wasn't in.
Yesterday was the dry run for team excellence camp.
In short, it was... BAD.
The program was badly done... not the programming team's fault though, mr teng threw back the proposal at least 5 times over
the past 2 weeks.
The people were bored after the 2nd hour of the run...
However, did met a few interesting people around today, like zhehong... haha...
during the second half of the day while the heads were doing the last briefing
me marvin and zhehong were actually complaining at the back.
then me and marvin started playing with masking tape and zhehong's leg hairs
haha... the things we victorians do.
then we found out he's not only scared of people pull his leg hair,
he also scared of gays and people touching him. Haha.
After the whole thing end, the heads got together with mr teng.
Surprisingly... mr teng decided to allow us to change the program.
So even though marvin (program head) feel so feddup... we decided to meet today to discuss through.
Only those who were willing needed to turned up cuz we could see some people not very willing...
Even as heads... they gave that kind of face. Interesting eh?
Me marvin and xianwei went to eat chong pang nasi lemak after the thing...
while zhehong stayed back to do the publicity noticeboard.
As the publicity head... he's really very hardworking and responsible...
haiz, admire his work attitude alot.
Oh yeah... xianwei was the overall coordinator.
Then as we went... we discussed, talked, debated.
Found that we are working against a lot of things... time, people, attitude and teachers...
that's the summary.
After the thing me and xianwei went to amk together... he went home while i went for prayer meeting.
Was talking to him on the bus... found that he's quite different from what i thought he was like.
He was well-spoken, thinks a lot... can see use more heart than head person.
That shows... looks can be deceiving. =)
Nonetheless... he's also a very responsible leader...
I went for prayer meeting... but only captured a small part about management of our lives.
Saw meijuan, so realized that she's transferred over to jc group.
Thereafter we went to celebrate huixin's bdae at the hawker centre.
On the way, realized that mx was kinda... down.
Can see she's quite stressed out... haven't been talking to her for some time though.
Really wanna talk to her again.... really.
YeaH... Anyway... just wanna take this time to thank God for answering some prayers... even though today wasn't very smooth, but i still thank Him. First, he answered my prayer against rain... it threatened to rain as i was going for the dry run... so i prayed against it and it happened! and yesterday... i was praying against bowen's hand as he has a match today... and he shared spontaneously just now that even though he almost stopped a ball that could dislodge his arm again... but nothing happened... thank God for protecting this little sheep of mine... thanks God... thanks for everything....
Ok... need to go off soon. Gotta go school to discuss the team exce things... cya tonight... provided the server doesn't screw up. =) |

Anyway, today was really a great rest day for me...

Called weilong before my prayer and worship...
really glad to find that he has coped very well with his trip to brunei.
Think he has grown a great deal while he was there...
his perseverance and reliance on God.
Then after the worship was talking to enghow...
about jinhong, about hongyao, about his parents, about everything.
Pray that he will do well for his tests next week...
and also that he'll be able to come for the church camp. =)

Juz got back from chemistry lesson and a little shopping at heartland mall. =) Went to buy a few cards to write for my cg people... i really love these guys. Was probed into thinking last night when i remembered what alan shared about the difference between the guys and the gals group. How do we show love to the brothers? let's start it somewhere. Not trying to be proud of what i have done to encourage and show brotherly love to the PT bros, but i believe there's much much more to be done... let God's love really dwell in every single one of our hearts... until such love will naturally flow out and not much deliberate effort have to be done. Amen? =p
Think i'll be slacking the whole day today... tomorrow will be a rushy day because of the dry run and prayer meeting. Pray that God will move people's hearts in the prayer meeting! And also, pray that i'll be able to leave early for the prayer meeting as well. yeaH... tomorrow can see weilong liaoz... haha... after 3 weeks in brunei he's finally back!!! Hope he's still growing strong in God, and his return will be a great relieve to jason. Jason needs the rest... he looks like he's gonna burn out soon.

Dear friend,
How are you? I just had to send a note to tell you how much i care about you. I saw you yesterday as you were talking with your friend. I waited all day hoping you would want to talk with me too. I gave you a sunset to close your day and a cool breeze to rest you - and i waited, but you never came. It hurt me - but i still love you because i am your friend. I saw you sleeping last night and longed to touch your brow so i spilled moonlight upon your face. Again i waited, wanting to rush down so we could talk. I have so many gifts for you! You awoke and rushed off to work, My tears were in the rain. If you would only listen to me! I love you, i try to tell you in blue skies and in the guiet green grass. I whisper it in the streams, give the bired love songs to sing. I clothe you with warm sunshine and perfume the air with nature scents. My love for you is deeper than the ocean, and bigger than the biggest need in your heart! Ask me! Talk with me! Please don't forget me... i have so much to share with you. I won't hassle you any further. It's your decision. I have chosen you and i will wait - I love you.
Your Friend,

[ 25. Refiner's Fire ]
Malachi 3:3 - "He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver."
This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God. One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible study.
That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.
As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.
The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot then she thought again about the verse that says: "He sits as a refiner and purifier of silver."
She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined. The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.
The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, "How do you know when the silver is fully refined?"
He smiled at her and answered, "Oh, that's easy - when I see my image in it."

[ 24. Cremation ]
hello... yupz... just got back from the cremation at mount vernon. If you haven't read my previous posts, my great granny passed away last week so today's the cremation. Yupz. Kinda sad, but i'm realli realli blessed that i was protected from all the scrutiny of how-come-you-never-take-part-in-the-rites by the relatives... simply because there was a large number of christians in the extended family. =) So anyway, you know, there will always be wailing and crying at the cremation service hall... so it led me into thinking.... many a times, we never knew how blessed we are until something is taken away from us. Then when it's all gone, we make a big hoo-ha out of the whole thing... and weep over it... so why not let's treasure what we have now? I made a promise to God that i will treasure the things he has blessed me with... i'm thankful to Him for everything... for my family, for this gift of salvation, and especially for this spiritual family that he has given me as well... with brothers and sisters in the PT grp... today i realli learnt about giving thanks. Yupz... ok, i'm going to take a bath before going off to club house at toh tuck... cya... |

[ 23. Follow-up Seminar ]
hey hey~ i'm back after the mad rush. whew. finally home!!!! I counted -- i took mrt thru 37 stations today! not to mention 8 buses as well... =) haha... i'm a tired man now. was rushing from home to clementi just now... then had the follow-up seminar today. Learned a great deal today... haha... and not to mention a few jokes as well. well, on the serious note, it's really tough to follow up on the new generation today... with much influence of the world and esp the mass media, the church has indeed become more wordly and the world more churchy. Well... it's harder to preserve the true meaning to christianity and its values today. Well, the follow-up ministry is very important... especially to guide the new believers of today towards God in the right way. So pray that i'll grow in this area of becoming a mature follow-upper as well... being able to identify with the youths of today and meeting their holistic needs in the best possible way... let the Holy Spirit guide me ya? more importantly, i need to start learning how to take care of people effective, and deal with people under me effectively.
Heard from kathy today -- "Do you know a lot of people don't like you and huiyin because of the way you guys do things in choir?" actually, my response is... do i care? I mean, i no longer defend myself... cuz the fact is, something went wrong and there's no turning back. There's no point in making excuses. What went wrong, is wrong. Furthermore, for a person like her who doesn't see the whole picture... there's a limit to her opinion as well. But i'm conscience clear. I've done my human possible and there's a limit to my leadership skills as well. Conclusion: this is a good learning point for me i guess. So anyway... that doesn't really affect me. Kinda used to it... but now i'm back on fire with God... =)
Anyway, really thank God for being there to look after me when i'm down and out... thank you God. Pray that i'll hang on till the end ya? And for my holiday homework and schedule... it's quite relaxed actually. =) I'm looking forward to tomorrow... Gen ACTS tea party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeaH~ can see my PT people again!!! Well, actually today the whole day i've been thinking of derek... dunno why too. Aiyah, will see him this weekend.... why fret? =p
I'm gonna sleep... ciaoz~ |

[ 21. Another Bad Day ]
Today was a bad day... sounds so much like an add-on to yesterday eh? Well, for starters, my brother was hospitalised just because of a regular chest pain (due to asthma history). He was hospitalised only because he suffered an allergy to the medicine given to him... sharks. Well, went to see him in the morning, and saw mom looking so tired and worn out. Anyway, thus i skipped HoP and discovery group. Then went to BK, saw marcus, so no choice must have shepherding, even though i really don't want to see him at all, much less talk to him. He kept asking my what's my problem, thinking that it's because of my brother, but i can't bear to tell him that the problem is HIM. I just dun wanna see him... just totally don't feel comfortable at all. Nonetheless, he did what he had to, then i went out of BK to sit with junting. Somewhat during that shepherding i asked him about yesterday he called jason regarding excusing me from discovery... he didn't say much. Never mind. Then the people starting streaming into BK, saw jialiang, this ex-HSB guy who was my admin karkia... and many others like eng how, carrie, bowen, hongyao etc... then i saw derek!!!!!! Argh... i missed him so much after not seeing him for two weeks manz... gosh, i almost screamed when i saw him and i asked him to come out and i hugged him. Haha... before anyone thinks crooked, it's a brotherly hug. =) Really nice to know him... great brother of mine.
Service... was great, but somewhat disappointing for an anniversary. Never mind, the message was more important. The drama was a modernisation of the parable of the lost son. Was a great one... i almost teared. Reminds me of my past as well, those times i ran away from God... well, basically today's sermon was about how on Psalms 84. It's about how the psalmist longed for home... that is, for God. I was asking myself... do i have that kind of longing for God? Well, maybe not that much. So there's room for growth.... yupz. Worship was simply, yet powerful. I believed many people were ministered as many think through their life in these 12 years of Hope.
After service and PT announcements, i went up to jacob... today's his birthday. 22nd birthday i believe. was talking to him for a short while... feel very comfortable whenever i'm with him. Though we don't actually talk much, but i always feel this sense of brotherly love each time i see him. Maybe it's because he was the first person to really show me what it is to grow in Christ... Well, anyway, before i left, we hugged... for a very long time... it's been sometime since i last used him as a teddy bear... hee..
During lunch, we celebrated hongyao's and joy's birthday. Was a great celebration, really enjoyed it... reminds me of the times in which i saw how hongyao came into the church until now... how he grew, how he changed and how i also changed to accepting him... yupz. I really treasure this brother a lot... haha, guess what? my birthday present for him is a hug (again.). You must be tired of hearing how much i've been hugging people today... especially for their birthdays... such a cheapskate right? No lahz, it's priceless ok! You can't buy hugs... =) Well, marcus' absence played a part in my joyful spirit then too. I dunno how come also... but it's just that i think can't really accept him... but nonetheless... ok, you're sick of hearin this. I hugged derek again (aiyah miss him so much, so u can't blame me.) before all of us rush off like mad cows for the follow-up seminar. The follow-up seminar was really really enriching. Different kind of seminar from the usual workshops that we have. The knowledge that was impart was really radical and new... something that is really modified to suit today's challenges of follow-up and even evaxing. After the thingy myself enghow and mingxiu went for a short dinner then we go home... yupz... gotta go. Need to call the team exce people... have fun~ |

[ 20. Upset & Lethargic ]
God God... i feel so upset today. Well, today's GP paper was quite bad, bad in the sense that the two passages given were kind of weirdly related (i.e. unrelated). So never mind... after that i went to eat breakfast with maxwell at macdonalds. He's acting weird too. Like he just walk off, and if i haven't chased up with him, he'd end up eating alone. He's like being anti-social towards the class for the past few days. God knows why. After that we went for chemistry test corrections. Got my As as usual.
I met huixiu for lunch at the beef noodles store. So it's like, we were enjoying ourselves, laughing and talking... until we met wansong at the bus stop. From the time we meet him up, we spoke less than 10 sentences in all until we reach VCH. He's like totally quiet, i could sense that i wasn't supposed to be there. Could sense his unhappiness lorx... then when we reach VCH for AJC choir concert, i saw my sec 4 classmates... mervin, johnny, jianwen, louis, xianfeng... Went to sit with them instead since i knew nothing's gonna come out at all if i sat with huixiu and wansong. Yupz... AJC choir is good, except for small mistakes here and there... but they have definitely improved a lot since i last saw them at their own auditorium last year. Cat high choir was their guest performers... and they pale in contrast to AJC choir. Well, that's besides the point. During the concert, we have two chatterboxes happily.... chattering away. Me, xianfeng johnny and mervin nearly killed them. Make a smart guess who they are. =) After the concert, i saw the hope people.... mingxiu, sharon, joyce, huixin, and we met up with clydina... haha... she looked... mature. hee... then saw the three cat high guys who performed at the esplanade carolling last year... think they recognised me. We waved hi... yupz.
After the concert i went home to take a bath before going to changi airport to study. Was feelin very very lethargic... but decided to go early and get some work done anyway. Went there and did the bulk of my organic assignment. Then at 930pm when we are supposed to meet to send off david and peter, jason haven't reach yet... in fact no one has reached. i feel so lonely... then jason called to ask me to confirm attendance. I called every single of the people... my own people all just give me a confirmation of our own people. Gosh... then when i call my visitors... i dun even know who to call! I even called huixiu and poh liang... huixiu say dun want to come because no one want to come with her... then she added on a news: wansong officially declared that he doesn't like me. Thanx huh... helpful information. That really spoiled my day man. Well, when i called poh liang, he was like "see first lahz... i try my best ok?" when that happens, i always pray for miracles to happen. Then thereafter... at 10pm i finally went up to meet them at the departure hall.... by then i'm already quite dead and down. Then marcus insisted on having shepherding with me tomorrow... and he lied. He said that he has just called jason to excuse me from discovery group... when i'm with jason at that point in time?! Gosh... you're a great one manz. I really don't feel good meeting him up. Zilch.
Then i went home with jieyun, did tell her some stuff, but not much too. Was too tired to do so. Ok, think i gotta go rest. Tomorrow still got HOP and shepherding. and church anniversary.... yupz. Pray that i'll have an uplift in spirit, been around weird people and upset people the whole day. I'm easily affected by them, remember? I need it... thanks. |

[ 19. Agnes' Birthday... Forgotten ]
yupz... i'm home for a while today, before i go off for caregroup. Contrastly, today actually seems short... but today's agnes' birthday. And i'm such a big idiot as to forget all about it until today. Never mind... i promise to buy her a present. Anyway, i evaluated today, and it seems rather good! I got news of my A for chemistry again, chinese test i got my A as well. Today seems quite ok to me. =) Well, actually my third great granny passed away last night. Then was worrying cuz that means my dad will have to run around doing all the odd jobs like the last time when my first great granny passed away. Haiz... actually i'm not too upset about her passing away, not that i'm heartless, but just not close to her. Well, i did not worry at all today, after all, like what leonard says... "Worry never make a deal, worry never climbed a hill, worry never heal my wounds... so why worry?" =p Well, i've still got joy in myself. =) Was reading merv's blog just now, and i still have to agree with him... what we write on the blog is our business, if you don't like what we write, don't read! Just can't stand those people who just can't stop poking their nose into others' business... but on the other hand, ain't it funny sometimes we want certain people to read our inner thoughts, while we can't tolerate some others who barely rubbed across the sides of our life? That's life for us. Ok, gotta go off... be back later... and i just remembered: tml's GP paper... SIANZ........... |

[ 18. Flashbacks ]
hey hey... wassup? Well, basically today's one of the typical days... Today we had quite a long lunch break... 2 hours for those still taking chinese, and 4 hours for those who don't. Well, i'm still taking... nonetheless, we went out to heartland mall to have lunch. Had nasi lemak.. .and i promise myself to patronise the other stall down the road next time. Well, i keep forgetting to go there if i had wanted nasi lemak... ok, that's besides the point. Then i went back and i saw joyce and joy! They came to do survey... but it was raining. Oh sharks. Never mind... i prayed with them, then i went back for my lessons. Was alone in the classroom... was trying on my new school pants... the zip on my old one was spoilt. Shortly after that dominique elena and zhiwei came in... then i heard dom and elena pestering zhiwei to share a story... i wondered what it was. Well, to fill some history in, me and zhiwei know each other since primary school... and we weren't on very good terms. Well, i was lying down on the tables, and zhiwei just started sharing a story.... about a guy went into quite a good secondary school with good aspirations... to have achievements in terms of academic, eca, and leadership. In short, he strived hard... he believed in you reap what you sow, but many things happened on the way... and sadly, there were more downs than ups. One of his classmates even committed suicide when they received their o level results. When i heard how he shared his story... i could sense the emotions stirring up in him... and various scenes regarding him just flashed through my mind... even though we aren't on very good terms, my heart really went out to him after that sharing. He seemed so shaken, and i was just speechless even as i went up towards the three of them. I have to say that i thank God for such a person like him... that reminds me of God's faithfulness in my life. Really. Of the many things God has done for me... if not for him, i may have been the one lying dead last year. Well, the rest of the day was peaceful and lessons went on as usual... |

Well, i don't even know if this can be published, give nthe crappiness of the school coms ya know... then it's like... i think i'm gonna fail my physics test later on, so the last thing i'd need is for m.low to walk into the library now ya? Haha... heard that the jieyun jason and co are coming down to srjc later for surveying... haha, so fun to see them. =) Looking forward manz... it seems to be quite a while.... haha. Well, huixiu gave me her farewell present just now... looks ok. After she warned that it's fragile... i left it in my locker. Hahah... that's besides the point. Anyway, today got choir again... *yaWnS* hee... never mind. It's the last of the term and this saturday got NO PRACTICE!!! yaHoOooO!!! i'm mad. oK, i suddenly remembered something about jason said last night... about eugene. Hmmm... indeed, i think it's time we do something about this fellowship thingey. Growing strong only amongst our core people, this can't do.

[ 15. School ]
argh... was trying to blog at my school library today... but apparently like most other coms in the school, it is kind of screwed up. Well, never mind. So it's like... today during lunch i was like sitting with shuaige, then i heard ruojin giving the unreasonable routine again. You know... the i'm-a-spoilt-child-and-i'm-entitled-to-being-freakin-unreasonable-just-because-i-know-how-to-be-immature-and-blow-up-as-and-when-i-like-it routine... yupz, you know what i mean. =p Well... then i realized, i can't be bothered about choir stuff anymore... don't think i want to put in my heart and soul in such worthless stuff... why not let's try something more worthwhile.. Christ! =) Anyway, then i was in the library trying to blog this... then i saw my maxwell playing with neopets... hee. So cute. =x anyway.... then we had this senior civil servant dialogue thingy, with this bg... shrugz, i forgotten his name. Never mind. But ainon was (as usual) sarcastic... i'm seriously surprised at her sense of humor and sarcasm. Sometimes it really gets a bit tooooooooooooooo cold. (yeah.) Then i had to suffer three hours worth of gp lessons... sianz.... then i got home! BUT, after i type this, i'm gonna make this 1-hour trip all the way to pasir ris to have my fmaths tuition... sianz sianz sianz!!! And again... i remembered (again) that i have chemistry test tomorrow, physics test on wednesday, chinese test on friday and gp common test on saturday... somebody save me!!!!!!!!! Hopefully God will sustain me through this week ya.... yupz. Well... i messaged mervin just now... quite surprised... he never reply. Dunno what's up with him... did i do anything? Haven't heard from him for a couple of weeks already... hope he's fine... yupz... if you are reading this message me k? =p so... i gotta go prepare for tuition... keep me in your prayers ya... |

[ 14. Sunday ]
haha... today's a really long day, but i'm really thankful to God for certain things that happened. Well, for a start, today's HOP was really.... great. Even the people weren't a lot, but it's like, i had a great time praying.... though i'm like what if my prayer sounded shallow... but in the end i still prayed. I believed that God will guide me thru. He did! haha.... hallelujah! Then came WFL.... and after that service. Today wasn't really a good day for me to concentrate... but the worship and altar call was really strong.... something really stirred in me. Was really encouraged and ministered during these times... even though i caught only the gist of the message preached, but i do feel a strong presence and urge to respond to God today. Yupz.... i felt this spirit of up-lifting and the burden re-ignited in me once again... the burden for the people, the burden for my land! Hallelujah! I'm raring to go again... =)
Well, lunch was short, but i was rather excited about the evening's Omega reunion with shuyuan and johnson. After lunch i took a short trip home, before meeting up mingxiu joy johnson suraj jason and shuyuan for the reunion.... we went taka seoul garden... haha. the service was GREAT!!! BUT... the food was.... greatly de-proved from last time. Well, whaddaya expect from a loss-making company... hee... oops... no offence.... Well, shuyuan really showed a different side to us today. She's like really enjoying herself... really having fun and great fun, that is. =) Even though jason thinks it wasn't very fruitful, but i was rather sure the fellowship was rather established... especially with the presence of suraj who is really able to talk to both johnson and shuyuan. Great thinking on junting's side. =) Anyway, i think i've put on at least 2 kg with that meal... haiz... =p well... that aside, i think i've really gotten over that her... throughout the day, i was telling God and myself that i just wanna concentrate on God alone, even if she is neutral or even cold to me, i'm not gonna get upset... i didn't! I was so happy... cuz i dun want her to be a obstacle in my life. Hallelujah! After dinner, i sent shuyuan back to ang mo kio. Then she said wanted to go for a drink so we went, haha... found out even more crazier things about her. A nice gal, someone who is real, who is cool, and true... never hides, never fakes, and real to her friends.... nice gal she is... =) yupz... and with that i went home and typed all these... feeling tired and full.... and dwelling on tomorrow's morning's meeting for team excellence.... grrrr..... thanx huh. Ok... never mind. Ciaoz!~ |

Ok... today was quite a rushy day. Had choir in the morning, but wasn't really great today. Struggled with attendance problems again. I really dunno how to get on with SYF like that... haha. Ok, that aside. Had to buy lunch for the whole choir while they rushed through their sectionals. I really admire the patience of my sectional leaders.... haha. the members aren't exactly learning fast, but the SLs are working hard... so i didn't mind helping 10 people to buy macdonald's lunch. (Well, try that alone... it's rather fun when you have 5 big plastic bags ya know? heee...) Ok, like i said, i'm not going to let choir pull me down, but i'm gonna revive it's former vibrance. Yupz, i know people are getting tired... but i'm still gonna try. We've been there, we've done that, so let's do it again, amen? =)
Went for discovery group for a while after that, was rather late, so was in time only to end the session... haha. Well, that's besides the point. =/ Bought my dinner, then went on the train with jason and mingxiu. Yupz... dropped at toa payoh as usual, but she's kind of... cold today. Today's the first time she didn't walk me to the bus-stop.-shrugz- maybe she gotta rush home ya. Never mind... forget it.

eric, your sense of humor is Sarcasm
Oh yeah, you're really funny. (Actually you are, but you're so sarcastic that it's hard to tell when you're joking.) You mean what you say, but almost never say exactly what you mean. In fact you usually say the exact opposite. For instance, if your friend is wearing an ugly watch, you might tell them, "I wanted a watch like that once, but I got the wrong Happy Meal." Yep, there's a slight edge to your humor, but all you are really doing is telling it like it is, only like it's not.

- Point of Grace
Music & Lyrics by: Grant Cunningham & Matt Huesmann
A man’s life is not his own; it is not for man to direct his steps.
—Jeremiah 10:23
Kicking up dust
Heaven or bust
We’re headed for the Promised Land
Since the moment we believed, we’ve been eager to leave
Like a child tugging Daddy’s hand
May we never forget that patience is a virtue
Calm our anxious feet so faithful hands can serve you, Lord
We run on up ahead, we lag behind You
It’s hard to wait when heaven’s on our minds
Teach our restless feet to walk beside You
’Cause in our hearts we’re already gone
Will You walk with us
Steady on
We want to walk awhile
We know that every mile is bringing us closer home
We want to tell the story
Of sinners bound for glory and turn to find we’re not alone
When we walk in Your light the lost will see You better
As the narrow road gets crowded Lord won’t You lead us steady on
We run on up ahead. We lag behind You
It’s hard to wait when heaven’s on our minds
Teach our restless feet to walk beside You
’Cause in our hearts we’re already gone
Headed home
Steady me, when the road of faith gets rocky
Oh ready me, for fears I cannot see
Lord won’t You let me be a witness to Your promise
Won’t You steady me
We run on up ahead, we lag behind you
It’s hard to wait when heaven’s on Your minds
Teach our restless feet to walk beside You
‘Cause in our hearts we’re already gone
We run on up ahead, we lag behind You
It’s hard to wait when heaven’s on our minds
Teach our restless feet to walk beside You
’Cause in our hearts we’re already gone
Will You walk with us
Steady on

[ 8. Rebuke ]
haiz.... ok, let me lament a few things to ya ok? Well, yesterday was a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad day. and i mean bad. Remember i said i was going to follow-up on eugene...? Yupz, that part was ok.... but the part after that was... ermz. disturbing. Well, dun wanna go into details.... but the gist is that my shepherd was rebuking me for not having enough emotional maturity, letting my feelings rule my head.... actually i got 1001 things to rebut at that point, but i don't think they realize that by doing what they did, i'm really really afraid of accounting to them about how i feel in the future... really. I'm rather upset at the facts that they brought out... even when they asked me if there any factual wrong things they mentioned i just can't be bothered to mention... i didn't want to be seen as making up more excuses to save my pride. I made it a point to stop feeling upset the moment i got home. Alongside with a few other resolutions. Ok, that's that.
Well, today was quite an ok day.... i got a 4 for my CLAO. Actually, i know what i want... i want to drop physics and give my chinese another shot. But now my challenge is to convince my mom that i can't do physics anymore. =) Well, who knows. What ever the case is.... i'm dropping 1 subject!!!!!!!!!! For the record, mingxiu and enghow got 1, edwin yong got 2, cindy, szeyi and clydina got 3, joseph(munkit), myself, chinyuen, zhiwei and barry got 4, huiyin, megha, sheralyn and mervin got 5, alvyn eng got 6, meiling got 9. Interesting eh? Well, apparently my seniors didn't do well... jacq got DEE. When i saw her i really dunno how to comfort her. God, do something...

[ 7. Choir ]
whew. finally got home from choir.... well, we had to talk things out today. With only 9 members turning up... hmmm... it's getting. cool. =/ Ok lahz, kinda sad that the academic teachers are actually disregarding cca totally... especially when we are having competition. what crap. -_- can't stand it. But i'm realli realli amazed and thankful that i still have at least 70% of the people hearts with the competition.... got people quit their core cca for choir ya know. i'm really amazed. When mr azahar came in to talk things out, i'm glad that things were finally going again. Well, at least for now. =)
Was reading merv's blog just now... kinda agree with him. While it's irritating sometimes to see childish people (like myself), we all still have certain degree of child-likeness in us... =) well, i take it more as a complement when people say i look younger than i am. Of course, i'd still rather people say i am mature... rare, but i got it before. =) from her!!! =p ok, i think it's more of a 'right time right attitude' thingy... know when to be mature, when to be childish. It's all on the time.
Gotta go do the team excellence stuff, cya later~ |

[ 6. Extrovert ]
You are an extrovert. You are outgoing and outspoken. You probably have lots of friends. You probably don't have many insecurities, or atleast people don't think you do. Your personality might mean that people mis-judge you. You should probably put aside some time for a sensible conversation with each of your close friends.
What's your personality? brought to you by Quizilla
hmmm. ok. that's not very true eh? Well, problems with such personality test. They will never be 100% accurate. =) Just got home from tuition, and was online for some time... actually didn't wanna add anything here, but thought, just write lahz, since i couldn't sleep. Well, maybe it's because of her. I called her just now to talk on my way home. Was really glad to be able to do so. Sleepless nights... not totally because of her, but also another person as well.... dunno how to categorise how i feel towards him. It's like... *shrugz*. Really dunno how to explain. Just can't get him off my mind. |

[ 4. Elena's Birthday ]
now's is the CI period... as usual, mr low let us off. So nice of him. =p We were celebrating elena's birthday just now, let me count... we planted 6 candles in the cake for her to take out with her mouth? hahahahaha... ok, after that, no one dares to eat the cake. I had 3 pieces though. (glutton.) And while we had our proper lunch, junli start playing with the cream... eventually, i smack a piece of cream on his face... and i ran off. haha... after that, he chased (i think) benjamin with the cream... and finally, i had a 'cream fight' with junli when we had lots of cream on our hand... running around the canteen with cream all over us should be crazy enough. bwahahaha... that's realli crap lahz...
Hmm... as i'm typing this, i see yanhan walking out of the library. Well, she's my, ermz, faci for last saturday's trainers' workship, quite a nice gal, but maybe i irritated her a bit too much with my crap. Today is a great day!!! for once i'll be able to go home early... haha... 4 pm. BUT... got tuition tonight. ;-( Argh. nvm. i'm off to play yahoo games... ciaoz! |

[ 3. Presents ]
finally home.......... well, went to shop around for some bdae presents for elena & marcus. Kinda surprised that both their birthdays are tomorrow. hee, gonna spend some time writing them a plain card later on.
Well, jason told me that i'm supposed to follow-up on eugene. I told him, not that i'm unwilling, but why, and i'm rather... amazed at his answer. He said "so that i have someone to take care of.". Give me a better reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeason!!!!!!!! =p ok, we'll leave it as this, but actually eugene looks like a nice guy, so don't think he should be much of a problem. Except that he thinks i'm a jc1. haha.... God knows how am i going to meet this person's needs too. Well, let God help then. =)
Today school was... dead. Like my earlier post, i'm like so amazed at the state of quietness in the school today. So peaceful... so serene... so... dead. well, it's ok. The stampede will return on thursday. I'm like still trying to figure out how to use this crap blog, how to personalise it like mervin's one... his is so nice!!! Aww, ok, i'll go try now. |

[ 2. Quiet School ]
This is the mid-monday, and I'm in the school library now. i seldom see SRJC so quiet... well, 1jc1s do bring some life when they are still around. Just now i got back my chemistry class test paper, got a B. Was really really really really DISAPPOINTED. Well, that's how you feel when you (a) studied for the test, (b) lost to 10 other people in the class, (c) is offering s-paper for the subject. Gosh... for the first time i felt like crying over my results. Then when mrs suresh went through the answers, i felt even more cheated of my marks. The questions itself is full of loopholes, and in summary that's how i lost 25% of the marks. I had to even scrutinize through my whole paper and search for that measly quarter mark to push it up to an A. Gosh. but i still feel damn cheated....
after chemistry lesson, i went out of the LT for a breather. I saw wansong and russell talking to their econs teacher mrs sim. Didn't have the mood to go up to them and say hi, moreover, don't think they saw me anyway... Feel kinda sad that they are leaving for another jc and for poly. Well, hope that they will like their new school... haha... (since when i'm so nice? =x)
Bell have just rung... |

[ 1. Birth of Blog ]
hihi... after some read-up on mervin's blog.... decided to start writing one myself... =) so to start it all off.... how's my day today? today was a... ermz, refreshing day. Had my HoP this morning, followed by WfL. Finally can see her again... Well, i'm a lucky man. She sat beside me for most of the time since yesterday. Well, not at service though. That will be too obvious isn't it. Somehow, she seems rather hostile today. Maybe it's her usual nature, then i'm oversensitive... shrugz. never mind. During service i'm really refreshed.... how? The presence of God really dwelled in Nexus. Many issues were brought out during the entire thing... and i found strength to at least face it, if not deal with it. Somehow, i feel that God wants me to face up to them. Can run once, twice, but not forever. Well, i have to start somewhere.
After service was lunch, and enghow had to treat me lunch cuz i treated him last week. (haha...) ok, but today's we have only Eugene myself enghow jan and jason... kinda small but cosy for a caregroup. =) heard some sharing on yesterday's prayer meeting which i missed due to Trainers' Workshop. It's about maturity, and of all things, eugene commented that i'm a J1 student. (apparently i dun seem mature enough huh...). Quite true actually, dun think i'm actually that mature, still got much to brush up on...
Went home with enghow after lunch, after celebrating hweechoon's and hongye's birthdays. Enghow have tuition, so i had to spend half the journey alone. (oh... poor me. =x) Reach home, did something abnormal today... i scrutinized my wardrobe. After condemning half of it, it looks more presentable now. (i just remembered i haven't returned mervin's tee and pants). Well, that was enough time to delay to call her. Then i called her... she was watching tv (as usual). I talked to her for about say... 1 hour? then we parted for dinner... how i wish time would stop before that. well, it's been almost a week since i last talked to her.
Night... was contemplating to go out and pamper myself with ice-cream, but i was too lazy to walk out of the house at all, so stayed by the google-box to watch channel U. i must commend them for giving some decent entertainment on a sunday night.... well, i'm easily satisfied when it comes to tv. =) and so after that, i went online... and here i am writing my blog!
sleepin soon... so catch up another time ya? ciaoz....
(I'm dead. i've not done my chem tutorial. sharks.) |
