Faith is the substance of things hoped for
the evidence of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1
♥ Prayer
Father, hold me,
In your arms of love,
Where it's safe to be
A little child who's made for love.
When You hold me,
I am free to be,
Who i'm meant to be.
Father, I'm Your child, Your own,
Your beloved.
during sec1 camp,the day at downtown east(ist?) with the "instructor",made me wanna cry when we were leaving.
cried like some mad person at the end of OBS,thought i'll miss andy so much when i only knew him for 5 days,it was so hysterical the boatman kept giving me weird looks.
cried on the bus(==) when qiulaoshi was leaving when i've just know her for a few months.
cried when my attachment at IBM ended,the people were so nice and i just thought i'll never ever see them again.it was so stupid coz after that i visited and met up with buddy sharonjiejie many times..can't understand why i cried==,so embarrassing.
cried as if it's the end of the world when fudan immersion was ending and my buddy and i have to be separated.i thought i'm gonna die== and we only got to know each other for a few days.
..
...
nevertheless,i lived through all those separations and partings...
and though many times it's hard for me and i hate feeling so nostalgic after everything that ends, i still thank God for making me the way i am, it's my gift(:
and now i realise, i'm starting to get so attached to u.. but still,nothing lasts forever
OP
Wednesday, November 11, 2009 ♥ 4:33 PM
and everything's over now.
nervousness killed it all.
我不甘心!
could have done sooo sooo sooo much better!i didn't memorize 70+ times for that kind of outcome!keep forgetting my script,and couldn't recover in time coz i blanked out!and i've no slides to refer to,i was all on my own!many parts were cut off,my speech probably lasted for only about 3min?:( nervousness killed it all!was so nervous it caused me a headache which still hasn't recovered till now.what's the big deal?!it's just a presentation,something i've done like millions of times before!why was i even more nervous than piano exam?which is suppose to be more scary since it's solo.and obviously i've done much more presentations than piano exams!so why was i more nervous for op==.maybe one difference is that piano examiners are all smiling and nice and kind coz they are suppose to make candidates feel at ease and not being nervous since it's super important to play well.i thought that should be the way in any exam or competition or such!instead op assessors are instructed NOT to smile==..i wonder what's the purpose?
previously i thought i just want to get it over and done with asap and after today,i'll be the happiest person on earth!i thought i'm mad but seriously,if given a chance,i would want to present my part all over again.因为我不甘心。成绩不是最重要的,重要的是我要做到我的最好,但它已成为一个永远的遗憾...
thanks mao for coming all the way to school so early in the morning just to deliver banana to me to calm my nerves.thanks for being there:D..hehe
now that everything's over..feels empty,coz all those hecticness and craziness from having something to chiong for all the time have ended.and end of op/pw officially ended our JC1 school life...the year flew by.

雨中
Monday, November 09, 2009 ♥ 4:42 PM
雨下着 想哭
雨水划过玻璃 模糊了视线
在雨中走着
让雨水淋湿每根发丝
倾盆大雨无情地拍打着我
一行水 顺着脸颊流下
不知是雨 还是泪?
love
Sunday, November 08, 2009 ♥ 9:13 PM
and then this verse was sent to me,
"Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another." -1 John 4:11
and this quote,
"Let your love grow as God wants it to grow. Seek goodness in others. Love more persons more. Love them more impersonally, more unselfishly, without thought of return. The return, never fear, will take care of itself." -Henry Drummond
what more can i do?
nobody
♥ 1:42 PM
nothing to say anymore
coz i'm sick and tired
of all these
letting go
has never been something
i'm capable of
always tried
yet always failed
carrying the burdens
has been draining;
why do i care?
why would i care?
coz God said,
"carry each other's burdens,
and in this way
you will fulfill the law of Christ"
and just as Mother Teresa said,
"I've found the paradox that
if i love until it hurts,
then there is no hurt,
but only more love."
so
just love people
the way they are;
love them
in your own ways,
even if it doesn't pay;
be assured that one day,
you will be rewarded
beyond all that is worth
on this Earth
in this world
God loved us
when we were yet unlovely
coz "love means to love that which is unlovable;
or it is no virtue at all."
for "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
new song from leona lewis
Tuesday, November 03, 2009 ♥ 10:16 PM
beautiful song.moving lyrics.
I'll sing it one last time for you Then we really have to go you´ve been the only thing that´s right In all I´ve done
And I can barely look at you But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here
Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can´t raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes Makes it so hard not to cry And as we say our long goodbye I nearly do
Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can´t raise your voice to say
Light up, light up As if you have a choice Even if you cannot hear my voice I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder And we'll run for our lives I can hardly speak I understand Why you can´t raise your voice to say

overprotective
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 ♥ 8:16 PM
a chat with mommy that day made me have a better idea about our project OVERPROTECTIVE parents in real life circumstances.my parents are the typical overprotective-to-an-extent-beyond-hope kind of parents.this explains why i was so hopelessly lazy and reliant on others.i never had to do anything on my own,household chores are just part of it.i just have to sit at my desk and water,snacks,fruits will be sent to my mouth.thanks to dad.even bananas are cut up into bite size so i can eat it easily with a toothpick.dad wakes up in the morning just to switch on the lights for me coz i'm afraid of the dark and he wait to open the door for me coz i'm too lazy to.i never need to wash a bowl or plate or cup...so when dad fell down and can't do anything,and i need to take care of household stuff before mommy gets home,i realise i can't survive.life become so hard man==.i need to help with dinner everday,obviously i don't know how to cook,coz usually if nobody cook for me i will rather starve than to cook something myself.so i just have to warm everything mommy already cooked,but i don't how to on the stove,coz the one at my house has to be lit by a matchstick first,and i don't know how to..coz i'm scared of the fire.this is again proven that the overprotective actions of parents has caused children to be over reliant on them and are unable to function when left on their own.
you keep me safe in a crazy world
Sunday, October 25, 2009 ♥ 3:56 PM
I try to smile my tears away, I try to keep my cool. Oh but one more door gets in my way I feel like such a fool Trampled and bitter, My heart just wants to bleed and stop Believing in me. It feels like nothing is for certain and that nothing comes for free When they're lowering the curtain to the theatre of my dreams I stumble and i crumble and I'm sinking to my knees for you You cradle me You keep me flying You keep me smiling You keep me safe in a crazy world You understand me Embrace my fragility You keep me safe in a crazy world And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again Noise keeps chasing me No matter where I go Oh and life likes pretending that it's on a TV show When it's hard to tell what's real From what the world just wants to preach You are the voice I seek You keep me flying You keep me smiling You keep me safe in a crazy world You understand me Embrace my fragility You keep me safe in a crazy world And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again 'cause when I'm wrapped up in your arms Nothing else can touch me What a wonderful way to recharge I feel like I can breathe again You keep me flying You keep me smiling You keep me safe in a crazy world You understand me Embrace my fragility You keep me safe in a crazy world And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again
you keep us safe in a crazy world~~
just hang on there!have faith and believe in yourself!and when it's over,you're gonna miss it all.
specially to wangbojia: don't worry dear,things will be fine,路到桥头自然直,it might not be that bad.and there's still econs,so there's still hope!maybe it can change their minds?though what i or my parents say might not change anything,just know that we are always here for you ok!(:

两年前我们在复旦附中相识
今天,我们认识整整两年了
而我们大概也是当时所有的人里,唯一还有着联系的吧
相隔千万里
还一直保持联系
从sms,msn,email,甚至到最原始的信件
我们还真是不容易啊。
也许就是这份执著,牵着我们两人。
在那短短的两个星期里
我们发现彼此是那么的相像,从性格到为人
实在是相识恨晚。
辰,能认识你真得很幸运
谢谢你让我在复旦附中的那段日子如此充实快乐
让我在上海那座陌生的城市感受到了温暖
我相信,今后还有好多个“两年”等着我们!

results
Friday, October 23, 2009 ♥ 11:44 PM
got back almost all papers.
chem,ok i deserve it coz i totally dao-ed the most important topic-organic chem.and when i got the paper what made me sad wasn't my marks,it's the little note that meta wrote that make me wanna cry.coz it's just so nice and the point is she acknowledged my effort.i really feel bad for doing so badly,i've improved by only 0.5 marks since block test..==
math,miserable~~i thought i deserve better,spend so much time and effort on it,it's probably the subject that i spent the most time on.and the result was seriously disappointing.
csc,i'm contented with casestudy coz to consider the fact that i did not study a single word of it,the marks i got was really not too bad.essay was like shit.especially the qn on the relationship between central and regional government,was totally out of point,not that i don't know it will be like that,i don't even understand the qn ok==.the moment i chose that qn,i know that i'm committing suicide.but i had no choice,the other qn was totally unheard of!maybe shouldn't have slept through jinyuan's class for the whole year..haha.but i'm ok with it,at least i passed it and got my CA to pull the overall grade up a bit!however sad to say that, though econs is not out yet, csc will probably be my best subject and the grade of the BEST subject is ....==
GP,though it's like really bad,i'm still happy with it coz everything improved,essay,AQ,compre!hahaha.can't believe i'm feeling happy for such lousy results.one thing to share,i got 1mark for summary!HAHA==
now only left with econs..better not break my heart and prove me to be stupid.zzzzz
pw is depressing~~just thinking about op makes me tremble!haha.ok i'm just really really scared,totally hate public speaking since forever and will probably continue to hate it for the rest of my life.and especially my assessor is people i know,which makes me even more nervous.i rather have 20 strangers than 1 someone-i-know.public speaking infront of people i know is just..i'm fine if it's just a usual presentation,but it's PW presentation!see the difference?:(
was just talking with mao about running away from school one day and go out instead..coz i haven't ponned this year...hahah.but she said her quek is too righteous and he will call to check on her if she's absent.== so our plan failed.shall try with chou.HAHA:D

kindness
Monday, October 19, 2009 ♥ 11:50 AM
you know what,maybe kindness don't always beget kindness.applies to you and to me.you are just trying to be nice and so am i.i thought it's all changing,my opinion is changing.and i even thought you could be a friend or something,instead of being so standard.and i AM treating you as a friend.mommy always tells me,don't get too overly close with people,coz they might not like it or you may easily offend them,you might unknowingly be irrespectful.especially to those who are your 长辈.but i'm naturally a person who likes to make friends and be close to everyone i meet.i like to give everything i could in a relationship,and i just hope that maybe i can get almost the same in return,though i don't expect the same.but then it seems that you don't always get what you give,sometimes not even a little bit.and the sad thing is everytime you thought you've found a new friend or made a improvement in your current relationships,it all turn out to be just you thinking too much;coz they might think otherwise.i'm just trying to be nice especially when someone is being against by many and i don't see anything wrong with it.isn't it letting God's love flow?or maybe i'm focusing too much on my own purpose that i forgot His.but anyway if you don't like it,i can try to stop though it's not what i want to do,so i'll probably continue to be nice,please ignore as you will.
dancey
Wednesday, October 14, 2009 ♥ 9:23 PM
two whole day of dancing~~ love it but it's super tiring and draining.
1st day,dancesport.have always loved latin.we learnt chacha,waltz,rock&roll,samba!i wish we learned jive too.was pretty fun and especially nice to be exposed to the different styles of dancesport.and the female helper is super like debbie!!and just random,i wanna get a dance guy!HOHOHO.
2nd day,with legs and feet aching,started another day of a totally different style of dance--street jazz!love it,though i'm still super bad at remembering steps.in the end we need to break into groups and sort of perform for the class,was screwing the whole 12 eights!..hahha
when i was going home,i got lost.in singapore!== so sad i couldn't find my bustop and i don't know how to walk to a place where i know have my buses.i walked for 1 hour trying to find a stop!!wts!then i saw marina square,my buses are at the other side of it, but i took 10min trying to cross the road.after finally crossing i got into marina square,then i had a hard time trying to get out of it to the bustop.and when FINALLY i got onto one of my bus,i realised it is a super long route one.so i spent another 1 hour on the bus.如果用两个字来形容我---路痴,如果用一个字来形容我---笨!!!!!!!
and very sadly my contact lens broke and part of it is stuck in my eye!!!took out after a very very very very long struggle.don't know if there's still broken bits inside!walao!!shall go to 眼镜店 tmr.
anyway,this is the street jazz song we danced to,by britney spear.nice but suppose to be..quite sick.
love love love love dance!<3
exam
Sunday, October 11, 2009 ♥ 3:05 PM
now i think back to last year,it feels unreal.how can anyone mug so hard and persevere for so long.it's amazing the force that has driven me.is it the fear of failing and not being able to graduate?but there's the fear of not being promoted this year as well,so why is it that i couldn't find the energy and persistence to sprint to the end?if i fail,i deserve to.coz 一分耕耘,一分收获,if i didn't work hard enough, i shouldn't expect much in return.and i can't blame anyone else.there's still one more paper left,yet since thursday i've been enjoying life like promos' over.from the past year papers,csc wen4 da2 ti2 are not going to be easy.by slacking my time away,i'm commiting suicide.
i hope pow don't kill me.econs is probably the only thing i'll pass now,and if i DON'T pass econs,..i can go knock myself against the wall.chem 太对不起 meta le,shall not elaborate.even if i might have done quite ok for mcq,it's coz i'm good at guessing the correct answer,wait will she see the structured and essay parts..csc casestudy was without any ANY preparation AT ALL.math...my only hope,was crushed,how merciful.and now csc paper 2...bye 09s67,hello 10s67.hahahaha.stupid shit.== walao,why am i so pessimistic.

漂亮的小孩 今天有沒有哭 是否弄髒了美麗的衣服 卻找不到別人傾訴
聰明的小孩 今天有沒有哭 是否遺失了心愛的禮物 在風中尋找從清晨到日暮
我親愛的小孩 為什麼你不讓我看清楚 是否讓風吹熄了蠟燭 在黑暗中獨自漫步
親愛的小孩 快快擦乾你的淚珠 我願意陪伴你走上回家的路
親愛的小孩 今天有沒有哭 是否朋友都已經離去 留下了帶不走的孤獨

happy birthday dear
♥ 6:46 PM
this is dedicated to dearest YUANCHEN XUEYAN xiaopengyou(not anymore.)
suppose to write this post on you birthday but unfortunately my com died on me.anyway,happy birthday darling.thanks for the past 4+ years,my life changed because of you.i changed.i became more spastic and unglam ohno!thank you for all the joy you bring,and yes EVERYDAY IS A GREAT DAY WITH YOU AROUND!we always laugh at the lamest,gross-est,sick-est,dumb-est stuffs!i love the 默契 between us and how we are like family already,like can just do whatever in front of each other and still feels ok.i wonder if you f**t in front of others too..?HAHA!you never fail to gross me out...and make me laugh even at the gloomiest moments(: thank you so much my dear.without you my life would totally be different,can't imagine.once again HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY!you are an adult now!haha.but it's ok,you don't have to act like one:D
at times like this when there are so many things on hand,and so many things left uncleared;
so many things to do yet there's not much time left;
don't where to start,
don't know what to do,
there's no focus,
no motivation,
no nothing.
sometimes just feel like giving up
feels all alone,where's my fighting spirit?
what happened to the me last year,the highly driven and motivated me.
the teachers were so encouraging so supportive so dedicated,they are the reasons.
here, i feel all alone.on my own.nobody there to look out for me.
i lost my way and no one,NO ONE(maybe except one) pulled me back.
or maybe it's coz i'm beyond hope,so they couldn't care anymore.
but ms tan and ms yeo would never have done that,they would never give up on me even when i gave up myself.
here i'm just struggling for survival all on my own.
i know life's like that,it's just gonna get worse.
just like what dad said,"when school life ends, happy time ends".
just as i'm typing this,a verse was sent to me:
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)
why can't i do what i do best?creating miracles,just like all the times in the past.
coz i'm not the one creating the miracles.
if i fail will you save me?
i need the assurance
or will you just let me go
may you be blessed

If anyone of you is lacking wisdom,ask God,who gives to all generously and
ungrudgingly, and it will be given to you. James 1:5
ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be
opened to you. Mathew 7:7
"For i know the plans i have for you, declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and
not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me,
and i will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all
your heart." Jeremiah 29:11-13

No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in You!
Psalm 84:11-12
God has wisely kept us in the dark concerning future events and reserved for himself the knowledge of them that he may train us up in a dependence upon himself and a continued readiness for every event.
in times like this,all that we can do is to keep the faith and continue to trust in Him, wait patiently for He will slowly reveal to us his great plans(: lesson learnt from king David, what happens to us is not as important as what happens to what happens to us... what matters is our responses to the conditions, not the conditions themselves.
let us see the light
Saturday, September 12, 2009 ♥ 12:07 PM
God's plans are amazing.if bo's dad haven't been wanting to be with dad that day,he would be lying in the same hospital as dad now.but God made it in a way that the accident was cleverly avoided.it could have been bo's dad,but God sort of let dad sacrificed to save bo's dad.and it confirmed my belief again that helping others is actually helping yourself,because if bo's dad didn't want to keep dad company for his operation(which was initially scheduled)that day,then he would be the one falling from the platform.
and once again i'm comfort by our wonderful church community.pastor immediately "activated" 10 praying people when i told her of the accident.she rushed right away to NUH at 12am after knowing the hospital and stayed with mama until almost 2am!and return right back the next morning.and she got a group of oasis leaders to pray together during the operation.thank you all who prayed and visited.our prayers were heard(: it's interesting how everytime something happens,the first person that comes into mind is pastor,she's always like this person whom you can sort of run to for refuge.thank you for everything and the church community,it's so heartwarming to know that whatever's happening,we are not alone.coz we have this big praying force behind us!and prayer is the most powerful weapon!(: amazing God.
and even in such situations,we give thanks to you; coz none can fathom your amazing plans for us, plans to prosper us,not to harm us.
