got back my promo result today. what's my reaction? i guess nothing. i got EEO for my lit, maths and econs respectively. amazing huh. i actually passed my lit and failed my econs. suprising i got a 15 for the gothic question. though its nothing good but the first time i actually passed a gothic question. thank goodness adeline went through settings with me!

bad news? i scored a 6 for mr. sas question. i think he is going to kill me in class what with grammar mistakes and irrelavant points in my answer.

and i don't want to sit for re-exam because its in the middle of youth camp. that is like so great.

Thought of the day: Next monday is a depressing day, what with chinese exams, report card and depressing gothic films like "Dacula"

got hooked on Corrine May's songs. its so nice and inspiring! esp like this song's lyrics...

Everything In Its Time by Corrine May

Sometimes I wonder what lies ahead
How long til my hunger is fed
They say it's hard to make it in this part of town
so many people on this merry-go-round

Some folks try astrology
Some turn to crystal balls
To find an answer
To get through it all
I just fall on my knees and I try to pray
in the silence I can hear Him say

The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to patience and watch for the sign
Everything in its time

I often feel like that I'm two steps behind
Somebody must have moved that finish line
There are a thousand reasons
why I should give up
But I'm stubborn in the things I believe

The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to the patience and watch for the sign

'cause maybe there's another plan
One I still cant see
A little surprise, like your love in my life
Funny how time changes how we see

The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to the patience and watch for the sign
Everything in its time
Everything in its time

always suspected that she might be a christian not after listening to her songs , confirmed that she is a christian! will try to post more of her lyrics and maybe upload her songs next time.

Thought of the day: Cause it's a long long journey till I feel that I am worth the price You paid for me on Calvary beneath those stormy skies (lyrics extracted from Journey by Corrine May)

oh, i cant wait till thursday! going for sushi buffet either at suki or sakae with raymund, calebs, vanessa and hopefully cheuk and eunice. and that vanessa keep asking me to pay, i should just ask *ahem* to pay.

this will be a great chance for my sch friends to meet my church friends. brought vanessa to woodlands on friday and she got to know some of my church friends like raymund and andrew. that was super funny just watching them interact...haha..didn't you enjoy that, my dear?

had extended worship yesterday. it was such a great worship time! sang my fave song "All For Love". the other songs was great too. had an unseen battle with the photocopy machine before that. was trying to photocopy the lyrics but it only came out half. it was so embarrasing that sam, sulwyn and pastor shern had to come to help me. well, at least we got it fixed in time for worship. that was surely a fustrating and difficult time.

let me just say again that i really cant wait for sushi on thursday. till then, i'll just starve myself so that i'll have an empty stomach to fill.

am i too late in saying that promos are over after 4 days? guess i am. totally glad that promoa are over but a bit sianz. surprising i miss studying. gosh, the promos must have gotten to me. hopefully this side effect of promos will pass soon.

yesterday led worship in cg. it was quite horrible, considering that most of them couldn't hear the song but at least i got to listen and share my fave songs. after that had camp com meeting. wow, the fear and pressure have at last gotten to me. there so much to do for camp and i guess there isn't a need to say that my holidays will be full of preparations for camp. but i think it will be fun ...

Thought of the day: Chocolates really make u happy. i tried it before. in that case, i shall eat a bar of chocolate now.

a story for those who are lost, in despair, in need for encouragement and those who are struggling

"One day I decided to quit...I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality...I wanted to quit my life. I went to the woods to have one last talk with God. "God", I said. "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"

His answer surprised me..."Look around", He said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?" "Yes", I replied. "When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them. I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo." He said."In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit. "In the fourth year, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed.I would not quit." He said.

"Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant...But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."He said to me. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots.

I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you. Don't compare yourself to others." He said. "The bamboo had a different purpose from the fern. Yet, they both make the forest beautiful. Your time will come" God said to me. "You will rise high!" "How high should I rise?" I asked. "How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return."As high as it can?" I questioned. "Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."

Thought of the day: Do you think that you are worth less than the fern and bamboo in the eyes of the one true King?

A little faith
Brightens a rainy day
Sun will shine, my friend
