Psalm 18:34 It is GOD that girded me with strength;
that made my way perfect
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

its time to complain again.its the dreaded period of the year.EXAMS.gosh.they last for 8 days and if they were any longer, i would faint.as i was telling rachel yew, i'm prepared to fail higher chinese. not that its a big deal. the only problem is that i would have to save my face from total embarassment if i'm forced to drop that subject.obviously the HCL teachers are attempting to raise the all-time-low chinese standard of our school by like setting ultra-cheemness test papers. like we can actually read and understand the passages (i wish). too bad. i suppose setting difficult papers only pulls our standards lower and makes up feel more DEMORALIZE.crap.crap.crap. i have like 4 geog chapters, 8 bio chapters and like a whole stack of other rubbish to study.and its ridiculous- how exactly are we going to apply these stuff..for example:(a)GEOG: A costal sand dune is a ridge of loose sand that is piled up by wind action at the coast. hahaha. if i ever get to see a sand dune in Singapore, i think i might die of laughter.(b) AMATH: cot x = 1/tanx or cos x/sin x wohoo.this is the best of all.the only reason i'm memorizing this is so that i wont fail JC math(c) BIOLOGY: theres something called the Mapighian Corpsule in our kidney tubule. okay. learning this is more practical. at least i know whats wrong with my kidneys if my urinary system deteoriates someday.CANT WAIT TILL THE 4th OF OCTOBER

today is such a DREARY day.
everything moved so slowly:
the mrt train, people around us. it took like forever to accomplish things.
and here's charlotte just staring blankly out of the window. she looked deep in thought and ultra absorbed in whatever she was doing. HOW PROFOUND ( for a small person like her.hehe)
and so i asked her what she was doing and she said she was watching the rain drip from the pavilion roof and waiting for the rain to stop so that she could maybe go swimming.
and after that, she continued staring out the window.
i think sometimes even small people need their own breathing space to think about life once in a while. ahah
feeling doomed about my disastrous revision situation. DONT ASK HOWS ITS GOING

its a good time to thank GOD for all that He has done for me- the very fact that i am a part of Shalom. SHALOM TURNED 25 on SATURDAY! i was silently thinking to myself about the whole 12 years that i have been in Shalom and its simply amazing how i have progressed from being a teeny weenie kindergarden kid to a youth in the church. was looking at my K2 photo and i didnt even realised that jamie,joella, gabriel and i were in the same class :)appreciating the fact that i have built steady relationships with people like joella, alicia kok who were my childhood church mates! and yet amused and embarassed when the aunties tell me about how i was some shy kid when i was young. reminscing the memories always bring back smiles i suppose.i flipped throught the anniversary magazine and i just love all the pictures! pictures of everyone- all captured in happy moments.had prayer meeting yesterday with the comm. i'm just simply glad that we shared our difficulties about doing quiet time. i thought about it and yup, all those were just excuses. happy that qiang smsed all of us this morning to remind us. ACCOUNTABILITY! love that word

Me and my clockTICK TOCK TICK TOCKthe constant jerking sound jolts meinfiltrating my brainthat i'm afraid it has become a part of my internal rhythmi detest the way it reminds meOf all my imperfection, incompetence-emphazing that yes, I AM A SLOTHthe way it moves is an eye sorehighlighting the things undonethe precious moments untreasuredcurses on the tip of my tonguewaiting to spill outi hold back:swallowing my thoughts and wordsi bite my tongue and instaneously,i regretas blood now trickles silently back my throatI SCREAM CURSES that horrible damned thing crashes to the floorshatters and lies thereand yet, i feel no pain for its deathI BECOME SILENTan emotional battle begins within me as i contemplate how i have wasted my life awaythat was just some random stuff that i was thinking about when i was lazing on my bed and reading a book. the typical sunday afternoon, doing nothing, giving excuses for not doing anything productivei borrowed books from the library yesterday and i got this one for plain amusement. the contents are silly but the author makes it sound so funny sometimes i just wanna read more of her writing style.i should just read fewer fiction books and more factual stuff. i tried it yesterday, just walking to random sections and picking books from shelves. its more fun and entertaining this way and i get to learn more about the world too
