you know, sometimes i just wish i was like, 26. you know what i could do at 26? you know what i dont have to do at 26? like, for example, study for promos DDD: but then i stop and think, well, no. i dont suppose i'd want to be 26 just yet. i'd be busier than i am now, every thing's like promos cos everything'd be important then. after all, its those moments inbetween now and 26 that'd make it worthwhile. although there are many many things i still cannot do now. but slowly, along the way i'll learn, i'll grow. and when i'm 26, i'd probably not be satisfied either. oh well! cant wait for promos to be over in any case. i should start gathering momentum again >< now's not the time to be complacent. must keep going, never never stop! yay (: go us (:

i am so happy! happy happy happy! :D just found vivien and winnie on twitter and their tweets really made my day. this whole season of really sowing and sowing has actually been very very rewarding, and i have really enjoyed it. i think the real difference is not doing it out of obligation, but really actively being concerning for them and thinking of ways just to bless them, to show that we care. it's been really really good and i'm so so happy. gotta keep it up i suppose, must keep praying, must not lose stamina! so many tests coming up, physics a level spa this week, then next week there's math, chem and econs test! gosh ): and promos in about a month's time i'm really scared. i pray for self-control, to get rid of laziness and procrastination, and to just study study study! a new strength. yes Lord, i pray for new strength. (btw, it's 25 august today :D )

ME! my playing was recorded in there (: yay (: lastly: if you havent already done so and you happen to chance upon this blog (which is highly unlikely, but just in case), please do my survey! if you're still schooling, do this survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=vVMrEVT5iKXtkuwazrfWag_3d_3d or if you're a working adult, do this! http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=ckMyb3NkcHA3c2Jxejl5Vmg1TU5rWEE6MA AND AND AND! please come for YO concert and RJC Band Concert on the 13th and 15 July :D you can get tickets from me. thanks! :D

Sometimes its better to be blindfolded by God	[May. 10th, 2009\|09:35 pm]
When you are blindfolded, you do not see what the world sees. It is to truly place your absolute faith and trust in God. It doesn't matter what others say: they can think what they want. It doesnt matter, all that matters is that obedience, the voice which belongs only to God. The people of the world will pull you down, laughing at your dreams, not believing that it is possible. But if you turn away, you realise you can actually do it. Not alone, for in that aspect they were right, but through Christ who strengthens us. I dont want others to set the boundaries for me, to define for me what constitutes properity, a good career, what success is and which way we should live our lives. I dont want to be just like everyone else in this world; I dont want to be just average, mediocre, ordinary. Instead, I will have blind faith: faith that surpasses all understanding, that even if it is illogical to everyone else, even if it seems impossible and even stupid to the world, I will still step out in faith. blind, not just because of the lack of favourable circumstances. more than that, having blindness as a shield. blindness to guard our hearts. Blindness to keep being simple hearted, to know the complications but still having complete faith: not in ourselves , which would not be very smart, but faith that God will see us through, He will guide us as long as we put our complete trust in Him. And so, it is with this blindfold that we may be able to make the right choice. We can ignore all the temptations and instead discipline ourselves to do the right thing, right at that moment. 10Jan2009 was looking around for quotes, passages, or just anything to sustain me for the day, the month, the year ahead: this was what i found that i had written exactly 4 months ago after discipleship class. let this not be an inspiration to me, but to you too. i just know that the decision was a right one, and no matter how hard it is, let this be an encouragement to you. jiayou. when we are weak, He is strong. and now i am so, so, so weak. Jesus take the wheel. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 no matter what happens here i am standing on the hope of Your word promised to me i believe, i believe, i believe. i believe that this will work out. i believe that we will work out. i love you

one week since the last post, one week since my birthday exactly 7 days since this time last friday when i was sitting outside my house. mmm. very very eventful week. dont think i could get used to this, so i hope subsequent weeks wont be as eventful! but, saturday was good :D i dont mind saturday happening more often (: yeahhh :D crazy crazy week, really. but its ok lah. i suppose a lot of things have changed since friday. new battles, new challenges. but i know God will never give me anything too hard for me. this is testing and stretching, but i know that after this i will emerge even better as a person. thank you God for that word You gave me today. today was a good labour day. heard a lot from God; been pretty long since i had such a long rhema word. should really dwell in the presence of God more often. (:

Enter by the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it Matthew 7:13-14
