Have not been blogging lately because my computer is spoilt. Am using the laptop now and I'm so not used to it =X
Anyway, this week has been a very busy week due to all those revision lectures and remedials that I had to attend. Went home at around 7pm almost everyday and slept very little. In the end, I fell sick yesterday. The doctor said I need to sleep more and don't over-exert myself to prevent the headaches from occurring. I'm really tired now... Feel like just going to bed and sleep like nobody's business...
Sometimes, I feel really humiliated. I feel like just giving up everything and blame the whole world for my bad experiences. But, I have to constantly remind myself that God is still in control. He will never allow us to be faced with obstacles that are too difficult for us to handle. What's a little humiliation and suffering as compared to the way Jesus died on the cross for us? Friends, God loves you and is waiting for you. Would you take up the cross and follow Jesus for the rest of your life?
Will not be blogging so often now since it's quite inconvenient to go online and I want to focus more on my studies. Around 5 more weeks to Prelims! Oh gosh...
And now, let the poor say I am rich.
Let the weak say I am strong.
Because of what the Lord has done,
for us...

Went to SGH in the morning and they were having this flu preparedness drill. So we had to put on masks and have our temperature taken. It was quite troublesome but I'm glad that the government is so serious about the bird flu threat. We won't have anything to worry about should the flu really comes into Singapore. I'm so proud to be a Singaporean because of such a far-sighted and efficient government! =)
Met Shien after that at Raffles City to have lunch. She treated me to Sushi Tei and I was so shocked when the bill came. Just a simple lunch with a few pieces of sushi amounted to over 40 bucks! Diaos... So expensive. =X
I can't wait to chase my maid back to Indonesia. She's so irritating and lazy can. I've never seen such a lazy bum before in my whole life. Hmph! And she bought a handphone that's of a later model than mine and it's much more expensive than mine too. I can't believe it. She's supposed to be saving money here to send back home but I see her squandering all her earnings on luxury items. Sometimes I really don't understand what they are thinking...
Maths lecture test next Thursday. I think I can just die. I hate statistics! Argh...

Attended Yoga for the first time today. I'm surprised that the lesson was not as boring as I expected. Instead, it was quite fun and interesting. But I don't like some of the poses because it looked like the poses of some gods. Anyway, it's fun doing Yoga lah, though my whole body ached throughout the whole lesson cuz I can't seem to do those poses correctly... hahas...
Sometimes people can be so hypocritical. They were supposed to be my dad's good friends who came by my house weekly for their religious meetings in the past. But after my dad was hospitalised and his condition worsened, they never show up anymore. They don't even visit him in the hospital at all. I'm angry because I thought they were good people. It's always through trials and sufferings that we see the ugly side of human nature. I'm disappointed with them.
Few more weeks to Prelims. I will study hard, I promise. For God, for myself, for my dad and for my teachers.
Dear God, please give me strength to tide over this tough period....

My dad invited Jesus into his life today. I'm so touched and amazed at how God does miracles in our lives. No matter what happens, I know that God is in control and I am not afraid. God is ever faithful and we can be sure of that. Glory be to God!
I was cheated of 2 bucks at Outram Park MRT station on Thursday while on my way to SGH. This uncle and teenage malay boy came up to me and asked me to donate money to their organisation which is for some drug-free campaign. They were speaking so quickly and before I knew it, 2 bucks from my wallet was handed over to them. In return, they gave me a pen with a note in it. And guess what the note said. "This is not a charitable organisation...." What the heck. I know it's only 2 dollars but I still felt a bit angry. Diao...

Yesterday night was the first time Karen and I attended Corporate HOP (think it stands for House of Prayer) in church. And it was fun! Though I wasn't too enthusiastic about having to pray for such a long period of time, I felt that it was a great experience for me nevertheless.
Hm... Received all my Common Test results already. I'm quite glad I didn't fail all my subjects even though I didn't do well. I had a F for Physics and it's very bad. But I expected such grades anyway since I didn't really study for Physics. Have to buck up, only 8 more weeks to Prelims.
Boon Jin asked me whether I want to serve at Youth for Christ after my A levels for about 3-6 months. I still can't make up my mind though. And I really want to go for a mission trip this year end but that means I'll have to start preparations before the examinations. I don't think I will be able to cope with the many commitments that will surface.
I hope Portugal wins the match tomorrow morning at 3am for the 3rd/4th placing.... And I hope Italy wins the World Cup on Monday. I can't stand France... Hmph!
You raise me up
so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up
to walk on stormy seas
I am strong
when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up
to more than I can be

So Brazil lost to France and England lost to Portugal. Oh man... Both of my favourite teams are out. I was so looking forward to see Brazil at the Finals. What the heck!
I think I'm not going tonight. I can't bear to face the harsh reality. I'd rather live in denial and in my own fantasy...
Didn't really enjoy today's youth service. I thought the music was too loud and I just didn't have the mood to sing any songs. The adult's service is still better...
Into your hand
i commit again
with all I am
for you Lord
you hold my world
in the palm of your hand
and I'm yours
forever
Jesus I believe in you
Jesus I belong to you
you're the reason that I live
the reason that I sing
with all I am

Tomorrow is the dayWhat the heck. The referee yesterday was obviously biased against Argentina. Germany does not deserve to win. But Klose was great! Wonder why that Klinsman took him off before the match ended. Anyway, I still think Argentina was great. So unfair... Hmph!
Brazil vs France tomorrow morning at 3am. I'm definitely going to watch it even though there's service in church at 9am. Hope I won't fall asleep during Pastor Shih Ming's sermon. Heh... I want to watch the England vs Portugal match but I don't think I can survive the whole night. Sianz...
Sometimes I wished I had put in more effort in practising my flute during secondary school days. I can't even recognise those "tao gays" in music scores now. Wasted my 4 years in band... I want to learn the guitar but I think it'll be very hard for me to master the instrument since I'm such a "tone-dead" person. -_-"
Oh well... I think I'm talking rubbish. Nothing better to do lar. Shall stop here for now..
