I CANNOT UNDERSTAND.

Aren't they important too?
They do not deserve these kinda second class citizen treatments.
God favours them LOTS!

What are friends for?
In time of need, who do we seek help from? (other than God)
God gave us wisdom to have friends and build relationships with people.

I CANNOT UNDERSTAND.

Alright.. yesterday marked my FINAL presentation for this semester and u have no idea how happy i am. It has been so torturous attending THIS morning lect. It starts at stinking 8.30am BUT u better be there early cos if not the lecturer will give u a good long stare to make u really guilty ALTHOUGH u reached at 8.20am. Ask any uni student, WHO ACTUALLY COMES ON TIME FOR SUCH AN EARLY LECT?! but my tutorial group did. Just cos she marks attendance ONLY at the beginning of lect. Not there, u're DEAD. To make things WORSE, this is a 3-HOURS lect. I dunno where she finds her energy to talk THAT long(at least 50yrs old) but she gives NO break. So u dun get to get a breather AT ALL. But the worse part is still: SHE REPEATS THE EXAMPLES, STORIES, JOKES WEEK AFTER WEEK. and SHE CAME UP WITH THIS VOTING SYSTEM OF WHICH U CAN GIVE UR GROUPMATES A FAILING GRADE IF HE/SHE CONTRIBUTES THE LEAST. hai.. just so glad it's OVER. =)
Anyway, just have to finish one last 3000 word essay then i can start studying for exams le. =)

Went out with elvin yesterday after a long while cos both of us are either busy with sch or ministry. Didn't do much. We went to pick up my A'levels cert at SA (dun ask me only NOW then i collect it.) and had a drink with joel in sch. This boy is REALLY studying and i'm really glad for him. Showed him my cert and told him that's the result if he doesn;t work hard enough. heh. =) Then we headed down to ChinaSquare to fix my oakley and to have lunch. Man.. the pork rib curry is STINKING good. =) Elvin had fish curry though. equally delicious. =) Then we head back to WM to meet the youths to watch FLIGHT PLAN. it is a really nice show. worth watching. =)

Talking abt elvin, i'm still thankful that God sent him into my life.. One and a half year already. So fast.. Joash was saying it only felt like a few mths. haha.. cos nothing changed. =) Whenever I'm happy, I just wanna share with him. Whenever i'm down, he's always there. Every night when we pray together, it just totally brought us closer together. I enjoyed the part when we pray for the youths the most.. We were brought together by God with the same passion for youths. Dunno how to explain how good it feels when u know clearly that ur future is confirmed and ordained by God specially and even who will be in that future. It always makes us excited all over again when we talked abt how we can do this or that in the ministry or for the youths individually. =) All I can say is.. there's really no hurry to get into a relationship unless God is the one choosing for u. It's definitely the BEST. Confirmed plus stamped. Elvin is the BEST. hehe.. (puke all u want but u know he's the best. =) Who sacrifices at being laughed at when the preacher needed a demonstrator? Who is the one who never say "no" when pple need help? Who totally doesn't care abt looking stupid or not being able to be the high-class undergrad image that many portray, just so the youths will feel comfortable or that the preacher will not feel embarrassed? Who likes to do weird games before edge and get blamed at after? Come on.. I'm not even sure if i could.. but i think i'm doing it more often now.. Elvin's influence i guess. haha.. =) )

All in all i'm just THANKFUL. Thank you, God..



Elvin gave me flowers! three roses. =)



He bought me a ring too! it's life time guranteed somemore! haha.. can't see the stones but they're really beautiful.



I bought elvin a diesel bag and key chains! i always allocate some money for bday presents or disposable cash for every mth so this mth's has been DEPLETED. haha.. =)



This is my dear! =)

Yoohoo! =) Definitely had a fun time yesterday. Went for Jocelyn's 21st bday party at some poshy 64th storey bar in republic plaza. =) Dress code was formal so it was really fun to dress up. haha.. Credits to Esther Foong for kindly lending me her clothes cos it was too rush for me to get anything cos party slipped my mind as i was busy with sch work.. =( As the bar only admits 18years old and above and the dress code has to be formal, people who were there last night were the old pple from our youth ministry. haha.. FINE, including myself. =)
Okok.. just show you guys the pictures la.. rather than me trying to describe everything. =)



The birthday girl and boyfriend and elvin and i! =) Darryl really helped out lots i think. haha.. the parents and jocelyn's relatives keep teasing him. =)



Celine, clement, elvin and i with the birthday girl. Jocelyn was like going table to table like wedding! haha.. =)



Celine and I. =)



elvin and i. =)



we took this at the mrt station. haha.. reflection. =)

kk.. gotta go for edge now. =)

Finally have time to sit down, relax and blog.. =)
These two weeks were really hectic for me.. Other than to prepare for 2 presentations and an extra long essay!! Also an emotion roller coaster. =(
However, really saw God's hand of protection, embracement of encouragement and love. =)I guess it's always when we really run out of ideas or solutions or are desperate then we get closer to God.. But the thing is, is there a need to go through all that? What i've learnt AGAIN(hai..) is that God is really our only source of comfort and strength.. He REALLY never fails.. =)
Anyhow, just wanna update on JOASH's BIRTHDAY! haha.. I went out to meet some of the youths at WM halfway through my essay. =P here goes..





Joash smiling happily at his chocolate cake. =)



This was how we ate up the cake. using SPOONS! haha.. u should have seen the look on the zap cai beng uncle's face when i took 8 spoons from his stall. (p/s: none of us ate from his stall.)



We held a one-mouth-cake-eating competition on the spot. it was a REALLY big mouthful!! Winner is JOASH ANG,THE BIRTHDAY BOY!



the winner demostrating how big his mouth is AGAIN. haha.. the fist can go in la! =)

Joash is really a dearie. He has never failed to ask where I am when he doesn't see me in service. He is encouraging. He remembers what people say and takes heart into smsing to ask and encourage. =) Wonderful brother in Christ. =)

One of my presentation is on a poem by 卞之琳。It is a poem about 暗恋和单恋。 only four lines. =)

也许
──葬歌

也许你真是哭得太累
也许,也许你要睡一睡,
那么叫夜鹰不要咳嗽。
蛙不要号,蝙蝠不要飞,

不许阳光拨你的眼帘,
不许清风刷上你的眉,
无论谁都不能惊醒你,
撑一伞松荫庇护你睡,

也许你听这蚯蚓翻泥,
听这小草的根须吸水,
也许你听这般的音乐
比那咒骂的人声更美;

那么你先把眼皮闭紧,
我就让你睡,我让你睡,
我把黄土轻轻盖著你
我叫纸钱儿缓缓的飞。


this poem is written by poet, 闻一多. He wrote this after his 4yr old daughter died of sickness.
This is one of few poems that really touched me. Since my major is Chinese lit, I have to read lotsa poems and majority of them are just trying so hard to impress pple with their language and forcing pple to be touched. However, this simple poem just come across so mild and gentle but with such strong emotional impact. I dunno those eng lit's term and i think typing my analysis in Chinese is not gonna help u guys understand. haha.. Anyway, do read it aloud and understand this father's heart. =)

我回来了!
alright.. time to blog again!! =)
Really tired today but I enjoyed myself thoroughly! =) TOTALLY!! EXTREMELY! haha.. Went for an outdoor movie with elvin at the Starlight cinema (the padang). This is our second time! 1st was at Fort Canning. Thank God for good weather! =) Anyhow, I have to say... INITIAL D is such a nice show! love all the racing scenes. =) And sorry elvin but i've to say it AGAIN : Edison Chen is so HANDSOME! =) haha.. totally gaga-fied again like when i watched Infernal Affairs. haha..
Frankly, I like Fort canning better cos the screen is at the bottom of a gentle slope so won't get blocked so easily.. but padang is more accessible and nice buildings around! =)


Starlight Cinema @ The Padang

On our way home...
Elvin's attempt to look like the Star War's character. =)

Just some pictures updates. (faster way of blogging..)

However, glad we went cos we really had lotsa fun! other than the run, we went to visit come places at sentosa too. Even let my cousin bro play in the sea.. He loves the sea! i mean.. he's only 5yrs old la.. =)

Just a lil on my coaching.. It feels really good to be doing what I like and enjoy.. Those were the days when I was the one being trained and tortured! Now I torture them! muahaha.. no la.. I'm actually kinda nice. OTHER THAN all the sadistic physical training of course.. =P My girls are not too bad.. just not aggressive enough which I've been forcing them too. Punished them a lot if they dun. Trying to arrange some friendly games after their exams..
I'mm actually VERY thankful for this coaching job.. Cos it sorta bridged ade and I again! netball has nv failed to keep our team together.. so ade and i actually chatted on the phone and met to talk abt coaching stuff.. Thank God for all these opportunities.. =)
oh no!! It's near 1am! cannot take it le.. need to 睡觉!
