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
Who Am I

i remember that i was going to church with dad in the car 2 weeks ago when we both had to go early for piano and ushering duties and i realised where i mainly get my temper, attitude towards things from...
Dad was telling me about how he sometimes sees himself in me and recounted experiences of how i deal with certain situations the way he also does..amazing. its true, because dad and I share alot of similar characteristics..
we both get irritated and annoyed when people ask too much (we think the qns are uneccessary)..we both think its absolutely important to read newspapers and wake up early most of the time- i feel really ignorant and lost if i dont read the papers for like a week or something, and dad has always told me that its important to be well-informed..we cant stand it when the newspapers are messed up (whats new? )..
that sunday dad was also telling me how GOD has really blessed our family in so many different areas and that he has alot of thank GOD for..about how God has given him the perseverence and the wisdom to continually be the sole supporter for our family of about 10 (family,grandparents,maid) for about 20 years and yet God has provided for us and His blessings never run dry..Dad was sharing about how he is amazed at how we can all afford to attend good schools, live extremely comfortably, go for extra lessons here and there (dad said its really a handful providing for us- having 4 children isnt easy)..its' all God's providence he said, and i agree..
A LIFE OF THANKSGIVING TO GOD :]

i somehow managed to lose 2kg over CNY. really weird.i just know i ate alot of yusheng and popiah..vegetables are healthy :] ate a mandarin orange for breakfast today..theres a whole basketful of them in the kitchen!
had a very fufilling CNY this year around..maybe i've grown more mature and can relate to my relatives ALOT BETTER (i have how many grand-aunts and grand-uncles).had alot of fun talking to them: like how my aunty cindy paid $300 for 6 sessions of manicure and she couldnt do the dishes for a few days! really hilarious stuff we talked about and i jus really appreciate the loudness and humor of my noisy relatives..
everyone said i gained weight since they last saw me but all also agreed that i should just stay at this size..apparently i look better now haha
i obviously havent gotten over the CNY break bcos i was on the verge of dozing off in HCL and SS periods..not good.

i can strike ' being a teacher' off my future career options list. not that i wanted to be teacher anyway..
i think i am totally terrible at imparting my knowledge to others..not at a peer-to-peer basis but more of a teacher-student basis..
i was trying to teach cherie logarithims last week and a shouting match ensued between the both of us..hahaha.its quite funny, bcs the shouting match ended immediately when cherie understood what i was saying..i being totally hopless at amath myself, didnt think i explained it well enough..
my left knee is killing me..kinda of.i think it partly due to the high jump finals last week..that pole kept dropping on me.i hadnt practiced since i was like primary 3 and now since there was no suitable candidate to represent 4SY, they put my name there..and guess what. my placing was 8 out of 32 :] a placing good enough to earn class points..

HAPPY VALENTINES'S/FRIENDSHIP DAY!! :]
this event was super blown-up in SC today..everywhere i went i saw roses, pink and white balloons, plushie flowers, notes/letters and chocolates! think i am gonna get a sore throat after eating so many chocs and marshmallows..seeing people rushing up and down and in and out the stairs and into classrooms during RAP and break was amazing: some major deliveries around SC today haha :] Thank you to all those who gave me gifts and notes! Really appreciate your thoughts...
thanks to those many couples who were around orchard and boarding the MRT- they significantly increased the amount of human traffic and therefore i reached home at like 8.25pm (later than usual)..
anyhow, this week has been real hectic (whats new) and i have sustained SEVERAL/MANY/NUMEROUS injuries..Bleh. left knee and left hip and my left ankle keeps cracking. not to mention my lower back.AHH!i need to see a physio. ms cheah said she will observe for a week before recommending elaine her physio to me.

its scary to see how high achievers are so immune to good results. being placed in such an environment stifles emotions and somehow i have become indifferent to good results, simply because nothing is actually good enough (so it seems).
people have to face it- everyone has different standards and when people in my class go " I did so badly!blah blah" with a score of 21/25, i agree with them..because its so difficult to stop exclaiming such statements when we feel that we have fallen short of our own expectations, people who are already satisfied with their not-so-high marks will give us THE LOOK. ahem. and then we automatically become annoying people who keep whining about supposedly good results. LABELLING!
SC math teachers are SCARY- both emath and amath. With the rate they mark 3 classes of test papers, TYS questions and assignements so quickly, they should be given some speed marking teacher award :]
have to go use up my vouchers- BlueMax- $10 Sembawang Music- $20
going DVD/CD shopping soon!!! (i hope)

didnt update for eons! eek.
so many things happened the past week(or two haha)..just too busy to blog :p
went shopping with cherie and mum on sat evening/night, it was such a hurried business zooming from taka to far east plaza to plaza singapura trying to get CNY stuff for the 3 of us super madness! managed to get 3 pairs of pumps from Charles and Keith and Everbest..went into Everbest at 9.30pm and managed to get out by 10pm before the shutters went out with 2 pairs of shoes..
watched Stuggart's Romeo and Juliet..the dancers were GOOD but yue and I thought the cheorography was kinda lengthy? went to sakae before that with eryn,janice,yueyun, bi, weiqin and shanice..it was so amusing! people got excited over that computer ordering system thing and bi only ate egg and miso soup and kept looking in the reflective panel thing near the conveyer belt to check if there were stuff stuck in her new braces :]
starting reading this book that uncle edmund gave to me for Christmas last year " Glimpes of an Invisible God for Teens"..really interesting so far and am learning alot from it
theres bio test tmr and i am so dead. and geog on wed and physics on thurs
I LOVE SCHOOL trying to be horrendously optimistic here ((((:
