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

heres my long over due post dedicated to ms heng:
its definately going to be a little tough for us SC girls to accept the new principal as the head of SCGS next year. hasnt ms heng always been a well-known figure head of our school? i have only known her for 3 years but she is one of the few people that i most respect :]
i think it is probably the way she is able to command the attention of us chatty and rowdy sc girls so easily whenever she speaks to us..unlike someone *AHEM*(the person holding the 2nd highest rank in scgs). she does it very naturally without raising her voice or anything..
ms heng always gives us reminders every now and then and always gently chides us for not acting ladylike and all.its really funny how she says it.
a) "girls! dont forget to excercise during the holidays and mantain a healthy weight.i want to see slim and trim girls when you all come back next term.." aha. we always laugh cos she also always tells us not to take herself as a benchmark :p
b) " how many times must i tell you girls not to sit on the lobby steps? its very un-ladylike and everyone has a view of what underwear you are wearing!" then she will go on to say how we are supposed to be kim geks and everything :]
c) during flag raising ceremony- "Sing up girls!! open your mouths and sing loudly. everyone must sing the school song regardless whether you are a singapore citizen or not" i am glad most of us sang louder than usual on friday..ms heng said she wanted us to sing loudly for her sake since it was her official last day at scgs.sigh.
d) on our uniform and general appearance- " keep your fringes out of your eyes, girls..make sure your shirts are properly tucked in otherwise you girls will look so sloppy."hahahaha
somehow she can nag and nag without sounding long-winded.its amazing la.
being part of scdance group has been something very fortunate, being that ms heng is very supportive of our dance programme and all. we are the only CCA that has an official department and everything.
this was the flag that the school got printed for the farewell. ms heng drew that caricature personally..my mum says that shes a really good artist :] it says" this one's for you ms heng! "scgs is gonna miss her.

tomorrow is the O level chinese exam!!!And i cant pretend not to care. but then again, i cant study for it. i hope i remember to bring my Dictionary though :[ i think its unfair that we HCL students take the O level chinese exam in sec three!! MOE should change the rules..yesterday's BBQ was so good..there were so many new friends and people like vera, alicia and chelsea came! loads of fellowship and the best part was the surprise birthday cake.it was so funny, cos jamie was so blur from the beginning to the end and the 3 birthday people didnt realise our plan.hahaha.i am hoping that more people will continue to come for yf next week too! HALLOWEEN BREAKOUT- ANGELS AND DEMONSi am so grateful for the rain for chasing away the haze. was reading 8 days yesterday and there was this write-up thing by colin goh about looking on the bright side of the haze. there were 3 of the statements that really cracked me up!!!1. Singapore smokers can feel less lonely, as the whole island is now exposed to lung cancer together with them2. The haze can reduce gang violence, 'cos now when a gangster asks you,"Kuah si mi?", you can respond coolly,"Kuah haze lor."3. The haze can provide an opportunity to try out new pick-up lines, eg "You beauty shone at me through the haze" HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADRIAN, JAMIE AND CHERIE!!!

(and taller, i suppose)i weighed myself today and shall refuse to disclose my weight. its too horrifying for words.think i shall continue with spring cleaning-part 2 on thursday. sigh. theres this pounding at the back of my head. its been there since yesterday. poor me. i hate headaches. have rehearsals for ms heng's farewell tmr. i am sad to see ms heng leave SCGS during my time. i wish she would stay just one more year..she has been principal for both the primary and secondary for 28 years! what a feat. i can well imagine 28 years worth of old girls and staff coming back on friday to wish her goodbye..how chaotic would that be?shall change my blogskin soon.

i cant believe it. belle tan wants us to write our own testimonal.
its that essential piece of document when we apply to a JC
AHH. its impossible to do: its so difficult to praise yourself and write wonderful things about our own personality and working attitude.
i am in the midst of doing it now and i feel so EGOISTIC.
here are a few things that cherie sent me through email.hilarious but true!
HAHA.

as you can see, my tagboard died on me.got a new one already.
I have an identity crisis!OH NO.
yesterday, we did the DISC personality styles in school- it was the 3rd time for me already but i found out i have changed :( i used to be a C-D but now i am a C-S now: which is weird if you ask me, cos i still personally feel i am a C-D. oh wells.
the korean wave is going strong in my class..everyone is watching korean dramas and going nuts over the GOONG stars especially. its quite funny that my classmates are so hyped up and excited cos we are SUPPOSED to be the study-nerdy-do not watch TV-boring kind of students.
BUT WE ARE SO NOT THAT KIND OF STUDENTS: i think most of us are those naturally smart kind of people..we slack alot alot alot for a top class.
but anyway, thanks to cherie, i got the GOONG soundtracks! yayness. i feel they have one of the best OSTs :]
mum said that instead of wasting my time away during the hols, i should do something productive. i didnt argue or protest cos i agree with her ( for once :p) she said i should push myself. she suggested:
1. pick up korean/continue learning french
I really dont mind.i love languages. its interesting and i just find it fun anyway..
2. practice more piano
felt guilty cos i have neglecting my piano for schoolwork, dance and all other stuff.
3. work on my amath, physics
my grades werent that bad, but i definately need alot of work if i wanna sustain my A1s
though. sigh.
right now, i am trying very hard to clean and pack my room which is so distraously MESSY. and to think that grace tang, rachel said that its neat! GOODNESS. i can hardly concentrate in here. i predict i might take a few days.
all the rubbish is hidden behind the cupboard doorsmy desk is so unorganized..i cant think straight doing my homework hereby the way, i think charlotte picks things uber fast:shes listening to cherie's music playlist- i mean which 3year old listens to R&B or pop music? she even can sing the high school music "I'm breaking free" and i have totally no idea where she picked up the lyrics from.little people like her are supposed to be occupied with shows like barney, sesame street etc. and she has watch high school musical like 3 times already. she is seriously keeping with the times

goong mv-perhaps loveaha.GOONG is the new korean drama in my life.its funny and sweet and the actors are young- WATCH IT!
its about this cheerful commoner(CG) in korea who marries the prince(shin) in an arranged marriage. they seriously hate each other at the beginnning, since shin is snobbish and all. the plot is quite funny, its a mixture of DA CHANG JIN and FULL HOUSE/KIM SAM SOON. its korean royalty in the 21st century.
they are airing it on channel U, 7pm! :]

so i had my HCL exam today.and then our beloved next-door neighbours decided that it was simply the ultimate best time to do fogging.and I WAS SITTING RIGHT AT THE SIDE OF THE HALL.my brain got toxinated. the hall became kinda of dusty and polluted. i am definately sure the poisonous gas killed some of my neurones and part of my brain cells. and it was hard to concentrate then when all the teachers are rushing to slam the large doors close and when its so difficult to breathe let alone think about chinese.sigh. the paper was easier than expected though. should be able to pass :] i took bus home after going down to orchard.the bus passed by cresent girls' and about 15 chinese scholars. DONT MISUNDERSTAND- i have nothing against scholars. but then, they were surrounding me with their heavy chinese accents(how apt; right after the HCL exam too) and i felt claustrophobic. the bus driver didnt help either- it was so jerky.CHINESE LANGUAGE + JERKY BUS = FOUL MOOD.i came back home and i watched 2 episodes of kim sam soon to help detoxify all the fogging chemicals out of my poor brain.WOHOO. ITS THE LAST DAY OF EXAM TOMORROW :]WE ARE GONNA EAT MACS BREAKFAST STRAIGHT AFTER ENGLISH PAPER TMR :] :] AND WE ARE MEETING LEE YUN HUI FOR LUNCH ON SATURDAY :] :] :]

okay. i have all the major papers done. whew. lets see: amath was crap, physics today was equally crappy and i predict Higher Chinese tmr is so going to the easiest paper so far.theres geog paper 1 tmr but i m too lazy to study properly so i m just reading throught the textbook. and i seriously think i m going to die for HCL. i need to pass i need to pass i need to pass. I AM AIMING FOR 51!( at least i have higher goals than janice and rachel. heh) Horray for me.i slacked the whole morning after trying very hard to chuck the horrible experience of taking the physics paper out of my mind. i watched the MBC 2005 drama awards where My name is Kim Sam Soon won like so many many awards! YAY-ness. exams are bad. they are making me unfit and fat. due to exams, i have to mug and so i cant go for ballet.how horrid. this isnt really the time when you say that you are loving every single bit of your life.wish me luck for tomorrow. i hope i come out of the examination hall alive.
