*.* charlotte's web *.*
Watched it yesterday with lizhen. Mabel could not make it. It was really touching. Charlotte died in the end. It is because wilbur took the initiative to make friends with a creepy spider while others are not willing to, that he got all the praise. Charlotte did all the hard work but wilbur took all the credit. However, it is not wrong for charlotte to say that wilbur is a special pig. He is, that's why so many people are willing to help him. Charlotte's really a great friend.
Went back to tms co camp last night with lizhen after dinner at long johns. Had nothing to do there, so talked with a few of my juniors and went home after that.
Chose a cds this morning. First choice is psychology. This 2 weeks break is well descibed with the word break and not holiday. It was not like a holiday at all. I still have to go back to school for co practices and project meetings, but I have no complaints. I rather do it now when it is not too rush than do it when school reopens and rush like mad bulls.
Val just sent me a Chirstian song named I am amazed, sung by children. Really innocent voices. I am really glad that Val remained in God as God remained in her. Thanks God. God is coming real soon, I just know it. I am quite sure that He will come in my lifetime. All of us must start to be serious with God if we are not, and continue to be serious with Him for those who are now.
God bless! I cheered with joy @ | 2:53 PM

*.* repainting *.*
They are repainting my block of flats now and I don't like it very much. I feel that my privacy is all gone when I'm at home because of people looking through my window now and then. I know they also don't like it but there's no choice. Furthermore, they are also don't know doing what with the tiles on the floor of the 1st level lift lobby. It is so inconvenient for people like me who go out and back home at not peak hours. I climbed up the stairs 10 levels to my house just now. A positive look at this situation is that I finally got some exercise. Oh well.

*.* mabel *.*
Went to church at grand copthorne waterfront hotel. Had a filling free buffet lunch. Then went to heeren with mabel to buy a belt for her birthday and Chirstmas present haha. Then she bought a shirt and bag. Went to bugis and mabel bought a handphone pouch. Walked around for a long time. Took a picture of this diamond Chirstmas picture there.
Went back to white sands and mabel bought a jacket. Lol mabel bought so many things today.

*.* inner struggle *.*
1st, went to my gu jie's house yesterday. Played with my beloved cousins and ate delicious food!
Have you ever found it difficult to say words that we want others to say to us? ie. thank you, sorry etc. I feel that these kind of words are easier to come out of our mouth when we say it to a stranger than to our loved ones. I guess pride is a barrier to us from saying these words. Really, I can't seem to say these words to my family, especially to my dad. I feel that saying these words will reveal a soft sport in me which I don't want people to know. I want to be seen as a emotionally strong person, not a weak one. However, these words need to be said frequently to let people know that I love them and they are appreciated. Well, saying these words to my loved ones when needed shall be one of my new year resolution.
I am now hating someone which has done nothing wrong to be getting on my nerves. I don't know why but when I am in contact with her, I just feel damn irritated. I need to change this too.
Most importantly, my relationship with God seems to be getting worse. I don't feel like doing things that allow me to get close to Him. I don't want to play the erhu for Him, I don't want to go to church alone. I just don't feel like doing these things which are the keys to heaven. What am I doing? Another one of my new year resolution: Get serious with God, dead serious. I shall start with reading the bible at a time which I will not be distracted, and my prayer shall not be repetitive, but what I feel at that point of time and day.
God, I shall believe that my repetitive prayers have reached your ears and You will make them happen in your time Lord. Thank You. =) I cheered with joy @ | 10:28 PM

*.* so cold *.*
Today, it is raining almost the whole day so yanning, weilian and I could not really enjoy ourselves at escape theme park because the rides stopped when it rained for safety reasons. It resumed quite late and we were complaining. Spent $16++ for lunch today at sakae sushi. *ouch*
Although I finished my mid-sem tests last friday, and am having holidays now, I still can't slack because of the many homework that awaits me. Thanks to adeline who reminded me that we need to do commsk2 online, pom lecture online and commsk2 reflection writing.
Went to church last sunday and also to disciple class. Shall tell you guys later (if there is the time to) in detail what happened that day. I seriously need to sleep now. The weather is so cold now. It is still raining! Oh ya. There is a City Missions Church musical on the 23rd of Dec, saturday, 3pm-5pm at Cathay Cineplex Hall 1, 6th floor near Dhoby Ghaut MRT station. Go and view it. See you there!
Thanks God that we got to sit most of the rides today I cheered with joy @ | 11:27 PM

*.* adeline's sis' wedding *.*
It was last saturday. Met adeline's friend rachel. Ate a wonderful buffet by four seasons catering. Sushi is my ultimate favourite. As usual, the bride was very beautiful. Adeline is beautiful too haha. Too bad for the guys who did not attend the wedding. However, did not congratulate adeline's sister and still feeling bad about it. Won a $5 robinsons voucher after the catholic church wedding by acting not very well. Yanning was great in her acting for this event for free hearing checkup? I am not sure what the event was, sorry. Anyway, she won 2 $5 vouchers! Spent it on chocolate biscuits on sunday after eating vegetarian buffet lunch with my parents, brother and grandmother. Sunday was my grandmother's birthday. So many weddings going on this few months and this week is my mid-sem test week. Pray for me! Thanks.
weddings are happy events I cheered with joy @ | 10:09 PM

*.* wahaha *.*
Today was really great. Firstly, jap meeting today was very productive. Everyone except me was on time haha. Had to buy ribbon and look for rubberbands for linda. Ended up buying the ribbon in the school bookshop but didn't get the rubberbands. We have a storyline and scenes out now. The next meeting is next next monday to discuss the english script.
Secondly, arts appreciation performance was great for all the groups. I was really embarrassed wearing my mom's dress though. Rubini (don't know how to spell) brought a camera and requested to take a class photo. Cheese! Had a nice talk with xin yi. Made quite a lot of good friends in class. Much much better than what I had expected.
thanks God, really I can't thank you enough I cheered with joy @ | 8:52 PM

Starting to love my group members so much. They rock.
thanks God for making my worries disappearWhen I didn't work hard and be emotionally stressed to ask for meeting, everyone just started to buck up and all charged up with motivation to do well for the act.

*.* walking zombie *.*
Let me start from the day before the standard chartered run, which is on
last saturday.
Weilian and I took bus 15 to tampines at 11pm. Met yanning, stayed in mc near the bus interchange, bought coke and went to assemble outside the sports hall before
sunday 2am. Divided into groups. The lonely me sat on a bus and it drove us to the padang. Took my shirt and went to change. Met yanning and weilan outside the toilet and we talked for a while. Took my breakfast and followed the leader to take a bus to our drink station. Poured ice mountain drinking water into small cups and waited for runners to take it. The elite runners ran damn fast. Less than half an hour passed after they ran more than half of the
42.195km marathon. The marathon ended very early at about 10am. Went to a nearby arcade with my new found friend cum partner cum jap classmate, michelle. Then went to the bowling alley to sleep. Woke up to walk to take the bus back to the padang. Lined up for quite a long time for my $20. Yanning and weilian helped me collect my lunch. Ate together and drank a can of 100 plus, an official sponsor for isotonic drink.
Walked to the esplanade to use the toilet. On the way to the mrt, met
xiao dao at the basement entrance of esplanade. I didn't see him until yanning told me it was him. He was wearing a white T-shirt and board shorts and was dancing in front of his friends. We followed him for quite a distance with me shouting
wei shen me constantly. LOL so happy. Yanning went to take a bus home while weilian and I walked to the mrt station. Near the city link, we saw people filming something. Weilian noticed
xu zhen rong and
zhuang mi xue. I just walked pass without knowing who I saw LOL. By this time, I was more than half dead. I was dead tired. Went to bugis to take neoprints with 2 birthday girls, michelle an tracy, and yvonne. Michelle went back after. The rest of us went to kinokuniya and I bought fruits basket 21. Then we went to bugis street and went home after that. I reached home at about 5pm and slept from then until 10pm. Ate my dinner then bathed. Slept at 11++pm.
monday- went to school and observed emerald's and james low's interview. Slept a bit at POM lecture and did some tearing of paper in HTMkg tutorial to compete with the next class on whose is the longest. Our class lost by a bit, but it's ok. We are not sore losers. =D Had co practice at SAA to prepare for today's competition. Reached home at about 10pm, bathed, checked e-mail, click to donate, then started on my observer's reflection for communication skills 2 interview observing. Finished at about 3++am. By the time finished reading my bible, it was near
today 4am already. Slept until 10.20am. Went to school at 11.20am to print and pass up the reflection report. Ate lunch at mensa 1 with jiaru and sharon. Then practiced once and went to SCH. 3rd to perform. Did quite badly.
Lost. Did not get to go to the finals. However, everyone seemed not affected. We are still smiling, talking and laughing like everything went well. On well, we can concentrate on studying for our mid-sem tests now. Went back to TP. Asked sharon to tag along with me to jap lecture while the other co members went to eat dinner at design together. And now here I am typing this long post of what happened to me these few days =D.
I don't need to be afraid because you are with me and bring me through everything I cheered with joy @ | 10:27 PM

*.* ups and downs *.*
Wed-Galatians 5:19-21
The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:26
Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
Galatians 6:3-5
If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself, without comparing himself to somebody else, for each one should carry his own load.
Galatians 6:8
The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.thurs-Sharon cried. She was too stressed in playing the solo. She didn't one the solo part in the 1st place but lao zheng "forced" it on her. Furthermore, xian yang told her in what ways she didn't do well and asked her to improve. Finally she couldn't take it and broke down. A lot of people persuaded her to stop crying including xian yang. He apologised to her but she still couldn't stop crying until the appearance of jia ru. She is very good in consoling people. Her speech made both sharon and I laugh. Although sharon stopped crying, she still didn't want to play that solo. After we went back to the studio, the whole orchestra played another piece.
God, I don't know what to say but you know me better than I do myself. I pray that you will help sharon in the best way you know how to.fri-Supposed to meet up for arts appreciation. Somehow or another my group members fell out one after another. I really don't know what is happening. Not one of everyone of my plans actually happened in the way I expected them to be. Seriously, I feel like just letting things be and wait for a natural born leader in my group to do all the job. I really don't know what to do now.
God, I pray that whatever happens, the end result will be good
