Ah at least for awhile, there's a respite between the exam weeks. Plus the A level holiday on thurs of course :D Haha wonderful. I finally have time to catch up on my math, do cards, in addition to the rest of the things. Of course there's a big growing pile of worksheets on my table waiting to be filed but ah, soon soon. Heh. There have been so many people's birthdays in March I can't keep track of them all. Have never been good with birthdays aha.

Have long overdue cards to many people but I think I shall just do 4 x) And that includes jon's one. See. That's how overdue my cards are. Ohwell. Better late than never right!

I've been learning important lessons these days and from the life of Job too. Hmmm. Yes to praise You always no matter what but just because You are God. :)

I will delight myself in the LORD always and give thanks to Him for He is good and above all things. My strength, my hope, the Rock of my foundation.

Blessed is he who trusts in Thee O Lord my Rock and my Redeemer

Lord, till the day that I recognise that You are fully sovereign, keep reminding me, keep knocking hard on my head, till it gets drilled in and strikes me and makes me reel.

I surrender all.

Now what's left to do, is just to pray. Not by any eloquence, but by the Spirit alone, because I am none but He is all.

Through the hours, Thou art Faithful. Today has been quite an accomplished day. I seem to be spending almost all my days at RI. Hmmm. But I like it there, really. I will learn how to throw like a guy. HA.

I will sing of your lovingkindness in the morning, and praise your faithfulness by night.

This is where I belong, in Your courts oh Lord, for in Your grace, I am found.

My commonwealth essay awaits me.

Hais.

The air suddenly smells like a hairdressing salon. Weird.

RJ training yesterday was... quite good :) There's a certain freedom in playing a sport that you love, without other worries other than improving yourself, without inhibitions.

Knowing it doesn't matter if you don't care, knowing that you're there, just to train. Knowing that like-minded people are beside you, striving for the same goal(s).

Smiling, laughing, whilst we run, whilst we bat, whilst we throw. Is that not how things are supposed to be?

:)

But no cannot be. They look cool sometimes. Hahaha. Ohwell.

March hols :) I think I don't have as much work as I imagine myself to. Imaginary fears. Hehe SS.

'Twas an awesome time :)

Mornings are beautiful

I finally read a book today after so long. And unfortunately it happens to be a chick lit one. Hais, I need real solid books that can't only be accessed by the net

I need refreshing.

I need rest.

I need God.

It's crazy what student-hood is doing to me. And season is already over. Term 1 is kind of over, next week no count cus it's LJ week. But all that + march "hols" would be but a clever guise over the amount of things I have to complete by then.

Lord, I am tired. And I don't know what to do about it.

Sometimes it threatens to creep up upon me and seize me like an unsuspecting victim. It's building up, I can feel it. It rises and falls, almost nearly sinusoidally. (Wow look, math terms) But no, I will not let it. Because I have strength within me that is not of myself, but of God.

On another note, I got a pleasant surprise to see a picture of one of my post its in the assembly presentation today. It's nice to know it impacted someone :)

Too bad/all of them have been taken down over the hols.

LJ week + Hols are going to be a flop because all they mean = Mug Like Mad. MLM. Best. I love the school's timetabling, I really do. And MOE's curriculum, the Singapore system in general. Good stuff, unbeatable.

I have since placed all my urgent readings and chinese papers in a stack on my table and placed a post it on the patch of wall above them that says 'The banes of my life'

Just you wait. I will burn them all when it is over.

Especially Chinese. How I delight in doing the endless amount of work, while telling myself it's going to improve my Chinese literacy. The joy it brings me.

I have never before wished so badly for the December holidays to come.

You should read The Yellow Wallpaper :) It's like. The most insane and haunting story that I've ever read but really very well written. Totally deceived man. :O But so far the most well crafted tale I've come across is the Story of An Hour. Every single word phrase sentence is there for a purpose and contributes to the meaning. I guess it's not called the well made tale for nothing :)

The power of the gospel.

But if I say, "I will not remember Him
Or speak anymore in His name,"
Then in my heart it becomes like a burning fire
Shut up in my bones;
And I am weary of holding it in,
And I cannot endure it.

Oh how strong, the power of Jesus' name

It is stronger, than any other name.
