"We are always looking out for more fresh talent to join our ranks in the effort to make Singaporeans the healthiest people in the world!" -Health Promotion Board

This is not the funniest joke in the world be it kept me giggling to myself for at least half a min. Hahahaha. So cute... really living up to its name.

Homework was never like that

School has been stressful because of the many assignments that I have. I keep harping on this but I can't help it because I have NEVER NEVER had so many assignments before!!! Not that I don't like assignments... In fact I prefer assignments to exams. But I somehow feel that exams are more worth it. You just study for a module for one week and you're done with it. But assignments...! you spend don't know how much time on them just that can that percentage of a grade. I don't know whether to puke or to close my eyes.

I shall do neither.

I feel reminded of this song. I have even blogged about it before. But some songs are just too special already.

Did you ever talk to God above
Tell Him that you need a friend to love
Pray in Jesus' name believing that
God answers prayers

Have you told Him all your cares and woes
Every tiny little fear He knows
You can know He'll always hear and
He will answer prayer

You can whisper in a crowd to Him
You can cry when you're alone to Him
You don't have to pray out loud to Him
He knows your thoughts

On a lofty mountain peak He's there
In a meadow by a stream He's there
Anywhere on earth you go
He's been there from the start

To get unbound to the desk

Even though I have many assignments to do... I suddenly feel that there is a lack of movement in my life. The PGP room is not very big... there's not much space for me to move around. I somehow feel that I need some exercise to get some blood into my brain and everywhere else. I think my muscles are feeling restless liao. The goal for this weekend shall be to get some exercise done.

GUILTY

It was only after the easter production that I started to appreciate my dark rings and buttom nose! I realize that I look so odd without them!

Normal... Intermediate...
And then after. This is one of the more normal looking ones already. I look like I went through plastic surgery!!! It was then... that I realize that I liked my natural looks. Hurhur.



Heh. Cast photos. I have heard their lines so many time that I have almost memorized them all. Today I saw a sign that said " Do you know..." and immediately got reminded of the taxcollector's script. Hahaha.

Good Friday

What an interesting day today was. It's Good Friday. Finally the day of the performance! Though my role wasn't an outstanding one, I was rather happy with it because that minimizers stage fright. And also learnt to focus on God throughout the production too =) Our Jesus character improved so much that it was amazing. And so cool to find that Liling and Joyce somehow managed to alight at the correct stop. Hahaha.
What an eye opener it was to put on so many layers of makeup and use so much Pond's cold cream to wipe everything off. First time putting on eye-liner too! Really couldn't recognize myself when I say my own photo. Had too actually search and look keenly at the faces! The makeup session was really interesting to watch.
So cute that Joyce and Liling gave me a toy flower too. Hehe. Small and cute to decorate my room and play with. Of course I can't play with it much but I'll probably be remained of this production when I see it next time. Hehe. Hope that the production manage to show the character of Jesus and his kindness towards all of us.
Can't believe that we hung out till 2am. It was really unplanned. But I must say that Liquid Kitchen had a very nice atmosphere, despite the expensive drinks. And then Madhav asked us what is life. What a difficult question to answer. But it reminded me of what CheeSiong and I discussed during out internship the other time. So many people searching for something in life. I also feel that I'm searching really. But as Pam said, because of God our search is blessed =) I don't really know what is life about la. Some people say that life is a gift from God... and that's true. When you think about this breathe of life that we have, you cannot help thinking about who the giver was, and why did he do it. To tell the truth, I'm still not sure why did God give us this life. Perhaps I'll never truly understand why but at least there's still someone to walk with me through it and that's a blessing indeed.

Hardpressed by not broken

I am amazed by the number of assignments I have. I repeat. I am amazed! Never before. What has been happening in previous sems man. Previously it's just one CA and that's it. Now I have 3 CA. Haiyoh. But I feel more amused then stressed.
My friend shared with me about the spiritual attack that she experienced. Actually they just seem like really subtle feelings... very normal downs and all. But eventually feels so uplifting when all those emotional burdens are taken away. Thank you Jesus =)

Assignments

Wow actually I have alot of assignments to do. Just so happened that the modules that I'm taking have CAs =P So it's a busy month of March already. I miss shopping. And also think about roller blading. Shopping is a really city girl activity. It's one of the bustly things that I'll miss when/ if I am at a countryside.
I remember that when Charis was in Year 4 previously she remarked to Emily that she feels torn between her school work and church/ God. Now I'm getting to first hand experience to understand what that meant. I like participating in the Easter production but it's rather exhausting. And have cell "admin" work to do too. There are just some things in life which you're doing because you can't help not doing, and have an innate sense of "dissatisfaction" of you don't. Really feel like I have a constant need to reprioritize!

Headache

I have been suffering from minor aliments lately! Ever since last year in Dec. First cold, then some boil, then cough, then headache. Ate a panadol for my headache, which was a start since I don't usually take medicine. Must have been a combination of stress, caffeine, eye strain, and poor sleep during my coughing period. Google is so useful. NUS too.

The young schoolers...

The A level results were out recently. Sounds like all the smart kids are achieving alot. And the schools are going to embark more on self learning. Even though I did find the method of teaching rather restrictive on our thinking development during the primary school days, I have a feeling that the students might end up becoming more stressed out with all the self learning strategies that MOE is proposing. Really depends on how demanding the teachers are really. I don't wish to see a more stressed out student population out there...
