another quick post

hi i'm kinda rushing out lunch and typing this so gonna make it quick :D

i just finished my science practical. it was really disastrous!!!!! hahahaha but i kinda had fun doing it!!!! like the napthalene was stuck in the glass tube coz it's frozen and i tried to be helpful by digging the napthalene out but the glass rod broke instead. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! but on a solemn note, i would have failed miserably if this was real O's. but STILL, it's worth many laughs!

oh yeah! i had my SS paper!!! and i had fun doing it too!!! there were 3 essays and.. and the first one was on SRI LANKA. and that sure is a God-given question!!!!! God sure is good and funny!!! i studied everything except venice just in case and i know of people who studied only sri lanka and it was spot on!!!! but sometimes it really reminds me of how God works. God don't look for people who are just hardworking. God looks for people who depend on Him and ridiculous as it may sound, serving cellgroup or ministry the day before, God still honours those who honours Him!! really awesome testimony and my friend have a lot to thank God for!!! :P :D

ALRIGHT. GOING PRAYER HOUSE NOW. TOMORROW IS SATURDAY!!!! FINALLY.

quick post

ytd when i was walking the bridge holding a plastic bag with a 1.5l bottled water inside, the plastic bag gave way and THE BOTTLE ROLLED DOWN THE BRIDGE AND FELL 4 STORIES HIGH. and THANK GOD there was no one below if not my next destination will be Changi Prison and not poly. HAHAHAHAHA. and amazingly(like what liyuan kept harping on), it DID NOT RUPTURE. the bottle was not really unscathed though. had a couple of scratches and a bent tip.

things to thank God for!

1) zhonghua who sent me a prayer sms. it's awesome when someone prays for you.
2) God's grace because this week was tough. very.
3) the auntie who gave me more rice than usual when i went and eat cai fan!
4) OH YEAH. i came up with the FDEL for the ASEAN and deterrence chapter. how cool is that!!!!
5) my history test which i got a 33/50 for it!!! I never scored anything above 30 or hit 30 for that matter!!! i guess God's just so good!!! fyi, i ain't a virtuoso in combined humanities as well. i am truly someone undeserving.
6) i've learnt how to choose good apples now!!!! :D :D :D :D
7) i got to know more people, eg. gracia and spent time with people too, eg. jingwei!! :D :D :D

my history test marks really showed that it doesn't matter how badly i do because God is still good!!! fail or pass, just try my best la!!!

thank God for God's amazing love and forgiveness when i needed it, grace when i needed to extend it.

prayerhouse

it feels like my home because i don't mind going around barefooted!!!! here's the usual routine:

1)jian le will usually come first with his guitar. and you know the equation. jianle+yining+guitar=play. HAHAHAHAHA. no la that's a lie. jian le don't need me to sing along with him. :( NO I'M KIDDING AS WELL. HAHAHAHA.
2)then other people will trot inside.
3)and i'll ask them what's the password from the inside.
4)so the password is that they gotta say something nice about me!
5)then we start studying, starting out productively
6)then after an hour or two, i start losing concentration and we either talk lots of rubbish or play guitar!!!
7)then in the afternoon, we'll go beauty world eat! yesterday was that teochew mui thingy!!!!
8)the whole cycle repeats itself


anyway, i have fun picking apples with zhonghua, seeing zhonghua running towards me with a flower windmill[and i'm holding a flower], playing guitar[ALI TAUGHT ME NEW STRUMMING METHOD AND MELLIMOO TAUGHT ME ENDLESSLY], talking about brendan's indian dancing moves and.. studying. i also like the times i go back home with nat on 67 coz that's really fellowshipping time!! NO I DON'T ENJOY STUDYING. okay la i enjoy it when i do it with my friends. :D :D :D

i think i'll be going to prayer house everyday. i really enjoy it overthere!

Ps Preston:

you know, you don't have to accomplish or do anything, Jesus loves you whether your life is messed up or not. whether you tried your best or not.

ya guys know what? sometimes i'm so sick and tired of making the same mistakes over and over again. haha!!! i was just listening to the sermon cd i bought the day before and i was reminded that processes are important for change.

God's awesome promises

1Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2and he began to teach them saying: 3"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. 5Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. 6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. 7Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 8Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. 9Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. 10Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you


i went to church to study today!!!! [come, pat my head and sayang me. LOL!!!!!!] okay la it wasn't very productive in the beginning since i was so excited to see that my beloved cellmates[jian, wayne, hongs] owned the place. pawnage plx!!!! and jian bought his guitar and it's awesome because I SAW HIS DOUBLE AND TRIPPLE STRUMMING. CRAZY I TELL YOU!!!!! God's really blessed jian a lot in his guitar skills. seriously!!! i still remember those times when jianle was still plucking "More than Words." LOL!!! but i had good time with my own cellmates. oh btw, liyuan and jingwei joined us!!! LOL! it's so good to have company!!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i reached home at 11:30PM and my mum wasn't very pleased. dead worried i guess.

Mom: you don't need to study until like this one! i don't need you to get all A's, i just want you to get into poly blah blah blah blah..

yeah. i want to get into poly too. and i'm not studying for all A's. okay la to a certain extent i am. i'm just trying to scrape a good pass for english. how i wish that on the spot, i could just tell her this:

"yours truly may not even be able to go poly because there're good prospects that he'll flunk english."

ah. it really hurts because i don't wanna say that to my mum. my mom after all DID frowned when she knew about my mids results which in my opinion was God's grace to me.

"He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD." Psalm 112:7

yeah!!! no fear!!! my prayer is that God'll remind me that either i pass or fail, God is forever glorified. work for food that don't spoil!!!!!
