11:12 PMIt’s like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not Come along with me
But this was not your dream
But you always believe in me
Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home
By:Michael Buble- Home
I love this song. It never fails to give me that soothing feel that i always love to have. =D
I can't believe myself that tomorrow the swimming team is gonna teach and conduct a Tai Chi session for my whole school. C'mon, what will other people think when they see young 16 and 17 year olds doing Tai Chi that's surpposedly for the older generation?! AAaah.
Physics test tomorrow too! Gravitational field and Oscillation. omg. I'm so gonna be owned by gravitational field. Will be having the cambodia trip meeting in school again. Well, i'm kinda looking forward to the trip. Hope that i will be able to explore something new and discover the lifestyle and culture of other countries.
My eyes are already half closed. Time to sleep i guess.
3:11 PMSo many things to do, ministry, test and exams, assignments. I hope that i can place all the stuff aside and run about in the big open field.
Whatever is it, your strength will pull me through.
I wanna go home. Let me go home. As a saying goes, Home sweet home. In HIS arms, where i will lay down my load and rest. =D
Sunday, August 27, 2006 12:18 AMHitting a 15 strong unit size of people is not difficult. Because we know who's in control of the situation. =D. It will be done in NEB3, definitely.

Anyway, i've been going home early for this past few days. Partly is because i've got test this week and tonnes of homework awaiting for me to complete them. Those seamless and never ending homework will definitely slaughter me one day. Got back my math test and i did pretty well. The first math common test in my JC life that i can do well. Pathetic? Nah, i look on the bright side, let this be encouragement for me to excel in my promos. lol. Went to meet up with Gar Meng for supper at Prata House last night. We just crapped and talked like nobody's business. Well, i definitely hope we can have more of such gatherings!
Today's gonna be a long long day. I'm meeting Marcus for shepherding at 10.30am in town. Service at 12.30, NorthEast Mobilisation at 3pm , Ps Shirley's Careleader's meeting at 7.30pm. My whole saturday gonna be burnt. But it's worth it. =D . And this coming September holiday isn't a holiday for me. So many assignments to be completed, revision for Promos to be done and many activities to do. Aaahhh, it's crazy.
Well Lord, i need your strength to pull me through. I just need to re-direct my focus on you, draw strength and encouragement from you. Your love is able to compell me to do more than what i'm capable of doing. I want to love you more and desire you more. Your love, never fails.
THANK YOU LORD! =D

Okay, yesterday was a great day. The only sad thing was that i need to wake up at 9am for my information counter duty! haha. Nevermind, it is serving the Lord. Met alvin and gary for breakfast then proceed on with our duty. Ps Jeff yet again preached a powerful sermon that's so applicable to our daily lives. Went to eat with my Caregroup at Starhub foodcourt. I just love to joke around with that little kiddo, Glenn. He's such a chilly padi and i can't believe that he's a prefect in school. haha! He loves to eat watermelon, you can always see him eating that after services. Yesterday, he ordered 4 peices?! And he finished them all by himself. Amazing.
After lunch, the CG coreteam went to RC for our district meet. Powerful teaching by Gideon.( oh, its his birthday this coming monday and one the unit bought him a Elmo balloon. haha.) Shared about the next 2 weeks direction for the whole district, we die die must hit our goal of 180. In the book of Haggai, it stated that they rebuild a wall within 52 days, i believe that my CG can hit a stable 15 within 2 weeks. Its not easy, but it is easy with God's annointing and power. =) . After meeting, went to dine with Donavan, clarence and Marcus. I kept disturbing donavan, i bet he hates me now. LOL . I went back to RC with Donavan and marcus to slack abit. They played chess while i read my book. And yes, the book i'm currently reading now? Its super interesting and a person like me who don't read books, i spent just 4 days and i'm finishing it. LOL.
Today's gonna be boring day again. Why? Because next week i'll be having a math test. Dreads. GP test tomorrow. Aaahh. But i believe that i can do well!! I must! =D

Friday, August 18, 2006 11:03 PMEvery morning, i would love to see the sun rising from the far horizon. Such a delicate sight allows me to forget all my worries and troubles. To me, it represents a new hope and a new day. Just marvelled by god's wonderful creation. His touch is simply flawless, something man couldnt match. =)
Thursday, August 17, 2006 11:10 AMI've finally learnt the true meaning of my actions that will eventually deem the outcome for my life. Consequences, responsibility. I hope i do not need to learn through the difficult way again. The phrase may seems easy to understand and comprehend but its not easy to experience it the tough way. When we did something wrong, we've got to bear the full responsibility.
I was pondering alot this whole entire day about what the teacher said. Not that he scold me, but he was really concern for me and he's able to understand how a student like me, is feeling. Why i did such things etc. I mean , its not a norm to see such teachers around in school. I'm thankful that i met someone like him who will talk to people nicely, finding out if there's any problems that is clamping down on us. Scolding, punishing and accusing isn't the first thing that comes to his mind when a student does wrong.
At least i'm just so thankful for God's grace and mercy, that never fails to strengthen me in times of troubles, during times when i felt so helpless, he's there for me. Whenever i fall, i will caught in his rich abundance of grace that's so willing to catch me and lift me up once again. Not that because of his grace, i can do all kinds of bad deeds that hurt him so much. But it is that because of his grace that urge me to wanna live a life pleasing to him.
Those seamless, never ending problems are there to mould us, guide us and shape us for future challenges that's lying ahead. Such big plans he had already planned for us requires shaping of our character and personality. As always said, a christian walk is never and will never be a bed of roses. Yes, it is true. That's why Jesus empower us with the power of the holy spirit to do things that's beyond of what we could ever imagine. Ephesians 3:20. I will learn to trust in him, his timings and most importantly, love him with my all heart.
I will forge that previous sentence deep into my heart where i will live according to it and use it as the main foundation for my life.
All in All
You're my strength When i am weak
You're the treasure that i seek,
You're my all in all.
When i'm dry, you'll fill my cup,
When i'm down you'll pick me up
You're my all in all.
Jesus, lamb of God
I have been singing this song since primary school. It used to have no significance to me during that time. Such a simple and easy song, can mean so much to me now. Thank you Jesus. =D
Tuesday, August 15, 2006 11:02 AMIf anyone is wondering why i'm able to update my blog at 11am Tuesday morning, its because right now, i'm in Changi Airport Pacific Cafe. hhaa! Yep, exactly, didn't go school.Now i'm here with dee. Tuesday is always a good day to skip because i only have 1 lecture?! and 132131 number of tutorials. In YJ, tutorials are basically wasting of time. Also, i will be ending school at around 4 plus? Can't afford to waste so much time man. So yea, right now, i'm here slacking and updating my blog. hehe. In fact, i'm gonna study soon. haha! kk gtg
Monday, August 14, 2006 3:16 AMI've been thinking through about what Pastor Jeff said yesterday during Service. Be a global christian. The work of evangelism doesn't just only contain within the borders of Singapore but it too, has to reach out to the rest of the world. I'm hoping that i'm able to go for some short term Mission trips. I want to let myself to be more expose to other culture, other kinds of lifestyle. I don't want to just stay within the comfort of my home and in this protected peaceful country that i'm living in. I want to see and venture out to different parts of the world, meet up with people of different race and culture. Learn things beyond what is inside my textbooks and notes, something that you'll only learn through experiencing it.
I've been telling myself since the start of this year that i want to go overseas to study if there's a chance. I really want to experience what is it like to be in other countries, away from the delicacies in Singapore, the comfortable bed, my besties and friends. I came across this saying when i was in OBS a few weeks ago. " You'll never discover new oceans until you lose sight of the shore" .
Haha. Well, i just hope i can go around the world, discover all the wonderful things that God has created. =).
Today's gonna be a boring day. Have to study for chinese, do my maths tutorial, physics tutorial. Oh man, this sux. haha.
Feelings that i wouldn't dare to pen it down. They are consuming me. Mind and heart clashes. aaahh, rubbish. =)
Saturday, August 12, 2006 1:13 PMTuesday- National Day celebration in school. It was boring as expected. I'm aiming to be on stage next year to receive an award. haha. Well, hopefully i can. =) . After that, its the college's sports meet. I wasn't even at the grandstand. Went to the canteen to eat then went to nap for awhile before playing soccer with Derrick and Salem. lol. After school, went to Airport with dee and salem to do my work.
Wednesday- Stayed at home during the day to finish up my assignments before meeting Alvin in the late afternoon at Marina Square. Played a few rounds of pool with him and gary. Gary went off, alvin and I headed to Taka's Kinokuniya. Bought 1 of the history books then came along Weilun. LOL. The 3 musketeers headed to Far East for dinner. After dinner, we were planning of where to go. In the end, we still head to our favourite spot, Esplanade. The whole entire place was filled with people, had some difficulty walking around there. We just talked, joke around, took some photos!.
Thurs- Woke up early to go for Maths tuition. Had CG after that. At around 3 plus, i headed to Marina Bay for T-10 outing! We played frisbee, soccer and flew kites! We were asking like where will the kite go after we release them? Heaven? Malaysia? Other country? haha. Went to some BBQ/Steamboat place to dine. We played the mystery number game so that we can divide the extra food fairly amongst the people. That night was fun and enjoyable. Hope we can have more of those outings! =D . T10.
Friday- Forced myself to wake up and go to school. Don't wanna be a bad boy anymore. haha. But i was sleeping in most of the lessons. lol. During our break, Daniel did some stupid things that made me laugh like a hyena. I took a video of it! lol. After school, headed to National library to read up on some history and Econs books. Met up with dee to watch Fireworks! It was super nice! The last time i saw this kinda fireworks was at the New Year Countdown. haha. We went to dine at Subway after that we chat, talked and joke around. Managed to catch the last bus home! Phew. =)
Saturday- Was late for the breakthrough meeting. =( . Service was fantastic, pastor jeff preached a powerful sermon and can really see that the church is moving into a right direction of evangelism. Had lunch then meeting at Marks and Spencer cafe. After meeting, went to play pool. I managed to win Donavan again! lol. Looks like the curse is still there. ahaha! Went home early to rest, because books and notes are gonna be my best friend tomorrow. I mean, it is not that i want to, but no choice i guess? haha
Tuesday, August 08, 2006 3:12 PMSchool was boring as usual. Nothing special happen. The only fun part was the PE session. The guys from 109, 109 and 110 gathered into 2 teams to play. Apparently, its only class 109 against the rest. We were severely outnumbered and out beaten by our opponent. Oh well, guess we need to improve much more in our playing skills in order to pose a threat for them. haha. Final score was 5-2 in their favour. blaah. After school while waiting for swimming training, played a short game of basketball with albert and evan. Seems like my shooting have improved by a little. hahha. I had cramps during the swimming training. I think its due to over excessive running during soccer and basketball that tired out my legs.
Went to Long Johns for dinner with Kaizhi, Chiarm, justin, weiyu and pamela. We were all hungry ghost after training. Our plates were all overflowing with golden crispy fries. yummy!.
Tomorrow's is the sports meet for my school. Hope it is as fun as during my time in SA. hhaa!.
Monday, August 07, 2006 3:40 PMWent for SA Band Concert at the Esplanade today. Overall, it was kind of satisfying 1 for me. I love the part where they started playing the School Song and the School Hymn. It reminded me of the times when i'm still in SA, the daily morning assembly when we'll always sing those songs. Both peices played by the band gave me a feeling that made me felt so at home. Miss those days when i sang those songs during morning assemblies. I also miss those daily sharings of the Word by either teachers or the principal in the morning, although when i'm still in SA, those are the times when i would catch up on my sleep. =p . The primary and secondary school that i was formerly in, are times that i'll never forget. Such great and fond memories that it is just impossible to pen it down here. haha.
Managed to talk and joke around with my buddies in class 3SE'04 and 4SE'05 . They are real jokers and friends that i'll never ever forget. Xule , Ray, Tee, Eggy, Chester, Nigel, Bernard, Vernon, Shyam, Jia Cheng, Yong Kang, Amos. Dudes of SE '04 and '05! haha.
Saturday- Was late for my information counter duty. haha. Surpposed to be there by 11am but i woke up at 10.45?! Went to fetch 2 of my CG's visitors and 1 of them converted! Yeah! Ate lunch with my guys before the coreteam headed down to RC. After meeting, went back town with Freedy for shepherding. I shared to him alot of my personal life and i guess i need to make some important decisions. =D .
i'm finally going for swimming training tomorrow. haha! Hasn't been goin for 3 weeks. =p
Sunday, August 06, 2006 3:29 PM.........
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
By: Sarah McLachlan-Arms of an Angel
This song never fails to give me a sense of peace in my heart. How i wish i can be in the comfort of the arms of an Angel. Away from problems, stress, endless bombarding of this physical and emotional drainage.
I need to indulge into your presence once again. To find strength, hope and life in you. You love me when you died 2000 years ago and you rose again to demonstrate your everlasting love and power working in me. I worship you God. =)
Saturday, August 05, 2006 2:37 PMAfter school headed to RC for prayer meeting. After prayer meet, went to shepherd Marcus before we played a round of street soccer. Weilun, jiancong and I went to Bugis street. Finally gotten my hands on the Brazil jacket! Walked around in bugis junction and ate our dinner. While in the bus, Weilun and I kept singing worship songs and talking about the times when we first led worship. Come to think of it, we've definitely have made tremendous improvement in our worship leading skills. haha.
Tomorrow's gonna be a long day again. Need to be at Nexus by 11am because of information counter duty. After service will be District Coreteam meet at RC. Shepherding with Freedy in the evening. Long, long day. I need your rich abundance of strength to help me go through the tough road ahead. Its a long long journey. =) .
Thursday, August 03, 2006 11:27 PMI wonder what has gone into my mind nowadays. As if i was being kidnapped by this man called Fatigue. It seems to catch me today and totally drained my entire bottle of energy. May be is the soccer match that i played for 1hr during PE. lol. During physics practical, i was dozing off. During the chinese extra lessons, i was not even listening. Brian and I just kept dozing off and treating those words that came out of the teacher's mouth as noise. haha.
With my drained body, i went for CG. The word sleep was the only word that kept on ringing in my mind after CG. I think god was trying to tell me to go home early to rest. Apparently, i succumb to it. haha. The first thing i went home, surf the internet for awhile then off the lights and on my radio. The next thing i knew was that i'm lying on my bed and the clock shows 9.30pm. =) . Woke up with a head that weighs like a tonne. I can't afford to sleep due to this stupid GP essay that needs to be submitted tomorrow. Aaahhh, now my mind ain't functioning. I spent 45mins just writing only 2 paragraphs. Productive inefficiency. haha.
Trying to get "you" out of my mind. But everytime, i just fall back and failed. Many occasions, i felt like telling you about what's going on in my mind but i doubt that i should do that. Sometimes i say things that's not of what i'm actually feeling, something that's on the other side of the world. Still, i need to make a right stand and make the right decision. =) .
Wednesday, August 02, 2006 10:58 PMSaying is much easier than doing it man but still, i've gotta get my ass out of my chair and study. The sad truth is that i ain't a person that will be able to make it by studying at the very last minute. Thus, for me, studying must start early. I can't believe that i'm actually saying all this bull shit.
Had econs test today. Tested on Monopoly and Perfect Competition. Thanks to my tutor that gave my class some clues that made our work load lighter. The funny thing is that after the test, my friend and i was so eager to see our test results. Its a first time that we are so eager to get back our results. Normally after tests, we'll just look at each other and say, FAIL LIAO. haha!. May be its because we attained allocative and productive efficiency in our studying time. =D.
Went to Bugis Junction and Bugis Street today. Saw many nice clothes in bugis street la. The best part is that there's a shop that sells Adidas jacket for only 70 bucks?! And this Brazil jacket captured my eye but i do not have enough cash to pay for it. So, i asked the uncle to reserve it for me. Hehe, i'm gonna get my hands on it real soon! Walked around there then headed down to TCC! Enjoyed the delicious desserts there! Wonderful time dude!
Tomorrow will be having CG! Hope for the best man! =D
