was walking home from joo chiat after dinner. had fei fei wanton mee with the youth, then cos of the fact that i hate to squeeze in the van and having to have the responsibility to be a student and return home to make my mother happy instead of heading to bugis tcc with some of the dudes, went home myself. walked thru the "dirty" side of joo chiat, haig road, a popular hangout among the malay community (i'm not being racist btw) and then headed home past paya lebar mrt. was a route filled with people, cos i guess it's saturday night. HAHA.

reflected on the way home, and talked to Daddy. had a round of jokes with Him, and laughed to myself. heh, somehow ppl who were looking at me may have thought i was mad, bt wells, who says you can't get crazy over Jesus? hehehe.

walked home, and listened to my ipod. "Hold On" by 33 Miles was on repeat as i really loved the song. i can really relate to it, but wells, i'll have to wait for a one-day where i might just get a chance to live it out.


Hold On - 33 Miles (beautiful lyrics)
i've been there a thousand times
i felt the rain like a thousand knives
and it hurts,
i know it hurts.
i've been there like a fighter plane
try to fly my way through a hurricane
and it's hard,
i know it's hard.

don't be afraid
you'll make it thru
just call out to me
and i'll come running to you

and hold on, hold on,
when the current pulls you under,
and your heart beats like thunder,
just give me your hand and hold on hold on
until the storm is over
and i'll be fighting for you
just give me your hand
and hold on.

i'll give you hope,
i'll give you faith,
and if its dark i'll light the way for you, for you.
by your side until the end,
until you're standing tall again
i'm here, i'll always be here

and if the tide sweeps you out to sea
when your strength is gone and it's hard to believe

just hold on, hold on,
when the current pulls you under,
and your heart beats like thunder,
just give me your hand and hold on hold on
until the storm is over
and i'll be fighting for you
just give me your hand
and hold on.

beautiful aint it? HAHA. i loved every minute of it. beautifulllllllll. just like you.

whooo.

had an amazing sunday at church. met pastor bob stevenson after more than or around 10 yrs! HAHAHA. he still remembered me, and recognised me, tho he wasn't too sure. as you can see, i think i look abit different since around 10 yrs ago, i guess.. HAHAHA.

hmmmm, i really felt i could relate to his message, and was truly touched by someone who is like a father figure to me, tho we nvr really met. HAHA. he's very close to my dad, and sent me stamps when i was young.

heh, i asked God about something and told Him that if i went down and pastor bob recognised me and gave me a hug, then it's God's will. i even shaked his hand to try to "avoid" a hug, but after that he was like, "oh look at you. so handsome and big and tall already." and then pulled me over for a hug. HAHAHAHA. so funny. heh.

wells, all the best everyone for the next week plus! jiayou! =D

to all history students: all the best for tomorrow.
maths: all the best too.
HAHA. maths = everyone. H1 or H2 all included. HAHA. too bad. LOLS.

darren, out!

yawns. i feel damn tired alr.
HAHA.

spent friday night and early saturday morning in geylang central macs with bryan. deborah, damien and chih chuan also came along. HAHA.
studied, but wasnt the most productive of sessions as i was really tired. gave up at 5 plus and came home with bryan. HAHA.

slept till 1 in the afternoon. didnt go youth but joined them for dinner at bugis. HAHA. wasted an hour at arcade watching the younger ones playing the jap drums game. came home, studied awhile then went off to bed.

sunday was church! hahahas. found out SIS STEPHANIE IS PREGNANT! sis steph and bro keith have always loved kids and been waiting for one since they got married around 4 to 5 yrs ago? HAHA. YES! thank God they finally are blessed with one.

testimony of them:
bro keith has always been a mentor to me ever since i started serving in the main service. He, being the worship coordinator, guided me and slowly induced me into the team. He has always served as a encouragement and blessing to my life and i thank God, honestly, for this great man. i've never seen someone who can play the piano and worship God with such greatness, and being so humble a man that he is. if you're looking for someone to follow, KEITH is the one. HAHA. (:

sis stephanie has always been the one i acknowledge from before till forever. i will never forget her wonderful stories shared to me in sunday school. i can still remember, on the day where jeriel and i baptised together, how much thanks we gave to her in our testimonies. HAHAHA! shes always so sweet, understanding and patient with a very silly and trouble-making boy. THANKYOU! (:

thank God for them. the only sad thing is... they can't join us for church camp! argh. HAHA.

but still, yeah! gnna have more babies in church (alr so MANY!)

evan came today. he refused to let me carry him or kiss him cos i didnt attend his bday party. HAHAHA. he's only two yrs old and he remembered! HAHA. so sweet lah, bt really, college day LAH, no choice. HAHA.

Pastor Kelvin preached today about fruitfulness, and at the end, we did a prophetic act of getting fresh water from dropping salt into it. i asked God for NINE things. HAHAHA. sorry lah, long list. heh. and i really wanna have an abundance this yr. prayers included daddy and YES, sister too. HAHA. sabrina, you're right. tho i pretend not to care, i do lah. HAHA.

pretty pretty pleaseeeee, pray for shermaine, my sis. she's in philippines and there's warnings of earthquakes. SHUCKS. haiz.
-worries

went lunching with youth before prayer meeting. then briefing for church camp 2008! im excited! ARE YOU? 8th to 12 june 2008. see you there.

the end.

i miss you, but i don't wanna pressure you. heh. but i care alot, and i hope you'll give me a chance someday, when you've fulfilled your promise.
patiently i'll wait.

Lord i offer my life to You
Everything that i've been through
Use it for Your glory
Lord i offer my days to You
Lifting my praise to You
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord i offer You my life

Had a chat at dinner with leslie just now, and as i was walking home, i took my time, strolled and just worshipped Him in the quiet and stillness of the night. i told Him everything i felt, how tired i was being in a jc and everything, and i asked Him for strength.

I also took time to reflect on the many instances where He actually stood by me and helped me thru, and also gave me the talents that i possessed. He reminded me that i should use my talents wisely and also effectively.

i was reminded as well that we are certainly living in the last days. and Jesus is gnna come back soon. so when are we gonna start taking action? HAHA. (:

NOWWWWWWWWW!

=DDDD

So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don''t know what else i can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just aint true
I really need you in my life
No matter what i have to do I'll wait for you

elliot yamin - wait for you.

life in itself holds no meaning.
it's the love, the friends, the family and God that makes life worth living for.

as in reflect back in life, i realise that God has really been super duper faithful with me, for all the wrong i've done, for all the things that i did even though i knew i was dishonouring him and my parents. yet He has always been here for me.

as i was walking back home from the bus stop jus nw, i took a step back and marveled God's creation. i thanked Him for his immense love over my life, and i just worshipped him in the quiet night. i didnt care who walked past, and that they may be disturbed by my horrid voice, but who cares. as long as God sees my heart, i need not worry. HAHA. =P

church camp 2008 - Cameron Highlands, 8-12 June.

HAHA.

and you arh, hope you feel better already from yr sudden bout of sickness. prayed for you already. heh. hope yre alright.

-as i walk thru life, i hope that i may be the one who holds your hand, to lead you thru life. cos it's the love that makes it all. (:

woooooot.
jus timed myself for skill A.
for those who don't take physics, skill A = SPA assessment where you have to plan an entire experiment in 1 hour. HAHAHAHA. gosh. and for the last 3 SPA pracs, i scored 2-3 out of 8. DIE.

plus it's 25% of SPA assessment, and that means 5% of overall phy grade, which determines one grade to another. HAHAHA.

i'm screwed. although i must admit i managed to chiong thru an answer scheme in 40:05 min, with illegible handwriting and without having to think, it's rather slow i think. i need to time myself well tmrw, but it's SOOOOOO early in the morn. HAHA.

oh, went studying with althea after church jus now. we were at coffee bean singpost. met my neighbour who's a junior of althea in MI. HAHAHA. so funny, to see her shock on her face when she saw the two of us. HAHA. surprise surprise. hehheh.

my hand aches now from all that writing. sian.


8:41 pm

final SPA tomorrow.

wish me luck!
pray for me, will ya?

all the best to all, skill A's the toughest, ever. HAHA. ):

jie's going philippines tmrw, dad's leaving to canada soon too.
