For week 7 and 8 mainly i will be having 2 Mid term exams which is EC2373 on Friday of week 7 and EC2303 on Tuesday of week 8 and im not prepared for it!! ahhhhh!!!! So far for the whole week i haven been sick, then started to do my SSD2210 group tutorial presentation and tml will be going to school to do my EC3322 Tutorial which need to be handed up on monday of week 7 which has a weightage of 10%... so any kind soul pls pray for me yeah?

After everything that had happened for the past week i learn many things in fact was reminded about it... yeah... frenship cannot be taken for granted... for me i now just want to be myself... to be a person that is a blessing to my frens around me... therefore i still got lots to change and learn.... a lot of my frens are nice... they have been accomodating and forgiving... I wanna thank the person who took the courage and represent the whole group to tell me the truth... yeah u are being appreciated yeah? how wonderful God place wonderful frens around u... during the bad times i thought i was doom... but chance has been given to me and the truth is being spelt out... therefore now i feel very releived... Indeed God is great... so now i will try my best yeah =)

Recently i have been talking with various frens... on about how to spend our semester break in decemeber... this is what i am considering:

- Diving in Krabi (Thailand)?

- Diving in Cebu (Phillipines)?

- Australia Road Trip?

- Chalet with my OG peeps?

- Bangkok?

- Taiwan?

- Learn something during the Holidays like Enriched Air Diver Course or Wakeboarding?

Interested parties pls msg me online to discuss about it yeah or tag on my tagboard!!! Hahaha... school work is a chore but think of the upcoming holidays i hope i can joyfully spend with my frens yeah... hahaha jia you all my frens who is going thru Sem 1 of 07/08 all the best!!! lets find time to mug and go thru this together!!! Azaa Azaa!!!

Moving On

Was very sick on sunday and today... was diagnosed with gastric flu... slept almost the wholeday today... feel so wasted... wanna study also dun have the strength to do it.. and sunday night was miserable... but now much better... just that a bit dissapointed today miss the Sentosa outing...

Anyway through all the things has happened in the past 1-2weeks... now i am moving on with life... yupz... although sometimes i am kind of worried i might offend someone again... cos i know im not gd with my words... but i will still try my best yeah... so currently hope that my frenship with other ppl will start to heal and will be better! yeah... i know it takes time but hope it does not take too long...

Indeed God and my frens makes up a big deal in my life... they make up my life as a whole... i keep saying thanks cos i know such things cannot be taken for granted like frens... it takes a long time to build frenship but out of foolishness a frenship no matter how close it can be with just a mistake will cause the frenship to be on the rocks... yeah...

Truth Brings Reconciliation

Uncertainty finally starting to fade its way... the Truth soemtimes hurt initially... but only the Truth shall set u free.... somehow i feel that the truth really sets one person free... and when truth is being surfaced... reconciliation and forgiveness comes... but thinking have to be changed in order to have an inward change in mindset and naturally outward change in action...

I really wanna thank (I keep thanking ppl haha) my group of frens who come together and send someone to tell me the truth... i am really grateful that my frens would take the effort to come together to discuss wats wrong... i am very touched and i feel assured by ur efforts and what u all did... cos if they dun care they would not have done those things... yupz... somehow what is being mentioned is the truth... its hurts initially but after a while... it really somehow let me thought thru... what he (they) really helps me by knowing what i should not do now... so that i can start to bridge frenships with my circle of frens once again.... i will try... i know is kind of hard and it takes time...

I know i gotta watch what i speak and stop thinking too much and reading too deep or even having some wishful thinkings... yupz... i seriously need help too... cos i know its not easy! cos i realise such problem has already been around in my teenage yrs till now... im not gd with my words... sometimes things i say might offend ppl without knowing.. so wanna say sorry to those i have offended or irritated...

Yupz... after everything... i feel much better.... thanks again for the concerns... i am thankful that my frens would point out wats wrong and gave me a chance... and most of all wanna thank God that i have wonderful frens around me despite of me straining the frenship unknowningly... may our frenships strengthen and move to another level =)

Hopeful

Hi there... Wanna Thank Those who shown thier concern... all ur concerns reassure me in someways... was mugging EC2303 today and think about what should i start to do to pull myself out from the pit... I know myself to be very poor in terms of PR (People Relationship)... I am very random and kind of lame... for the past many yrs trying very hard to improve my PR skills... i know sometimes i talk to ppl... ppl tend to think i am a very proud person... actually i also dunno about it until ppl told me... yupz... dunno why i feel kind of inferior when i make eye contact with ppl... but will try my best to do more... yupz... think i should start to work on things that i have... rather than focus too much on things that i don't have... trying to put in more effort in building quality frenships... i know it will take some time... but will try my best... yeah.... at the same time think gotta study well to do well for this semester.... tml will mark the end of 1st half of the semester... mid terms are coming... gotta buckle up the seatbelt and go forth in full gear soon....

Therefore, i feel much better now... i know is kind of hard to cope with the uncertainty now... but i know it takes time for things to work out... although i know along the way there might be more dissapointments but i know i will still able to see the sun shine again... yeah... everything will be afresh now and forget the past.... Although i fell... but i will stand up and walk again... once again the title... keep walking =) Thanks ppl once again!

Acceptance

This word has been in my head for quite while when i took cab home from school... Yeah indeed life is kind of hard for me emotionally and mentally... anyway watever i blog is not holding against anyone... is just my personal thought... is just a place to express my fustration and disillusioness within me... I felt kind of very lousy recently... is like back to the point i used to feel this way a few yrs ago... things dun seem to improve... things continue to be uncertain.... many things are beyond my control... wad i can do is to do my best and hope... the word "Acceptance" is the main word that bother my life now.... is the biggest handicap of my life... which makes me having a heavy and sunken heart...

I can recall during my grow up yrs when i used to stay in Toh Yi (Bukit Timah)... I used to have a fixed group of frens in the neighbourhood i knew and we play and hang out through of childhood yrs... i used to remember i got a fren called Cher Fong whom is younger than me 1 yrs old... the days we go out have fun everyday... do all sorts of things... play table tennis... block catching... arcade.... go to places togther... that kind of close frenship we had... and then during sec sch days we belong to the same sec sch... i got to know a fren called Andy Raymond they all... that was also one of my cherished times i had with my frens... although sometimes i got bully by my frens like they fly u aeroplane and Pang seh u... i still treasure them as my frens... thats one of the close frenships i forged during my growing up yrs....

Now i kind of missed the days i had close frens... frens i can depend on whom i can tell my darkest secrets... frens who gave me the assurance that im being accepted... after Secondary school... After that things seems to go bad... too cut the long story short... the i felt rejected many parts of my life... Rejections seems to huant me like a terror in life until now... After stepping into church my life started to change... i no longer being so depress (not as bad as before)... but still this problem still trap inside of me... i took many huge step of faith to make frens... many of u all thought im very sociable and have many frens... but thats just quantity... wad i really looking for is quality... i yearning for the assurance of acceptance...

Maybe thats why many ppl think im too nice... they got kind of paraniod of me... only those who knows me very well i meant no harm... sometimes i am so hungry for acceptance that i look for it in the wrong place... which give me more and more dissapointments... is very hurtful to be rejected when u are nice to them... many being unappreciative for the things u done for them.... im and sick and tired... my rantings does not hold anyone with anything... is i just feel fustrated why things turn out like this... depsite of trying my best to be a nice fren a nice person to trys to help as much as he can for his frens... i know some of my frens they are kind of busy i do not hold anything with them.. is just me... the spirit of rejection keep huanting me telling me lies in my head until i can't stand it... maybe becos of this i tend to think too much... reading too much or deep into ppl's repsonse which lead to uncessary worries... certain reactions might even trigger the sense of rejection... thats how bad it might go... many of the times i wanna overcome these... stop thinking too much and too negative... where things might not turn out as bad as it could be...

I hope i can pull myself together once again... finding the security in myself again... finding the assurance of acceptance... praying very hard everyday for things to be better.... continueing holding the hope that ppl in my life will being to accept me a a gd fren... building more closer and strong frenships... and ultimately find a special person in my life.... i know i cannot let this problem i have paralyse me... but i feel so weak now... im tired... im discouraged... but i still beleive the sun will still shine one day....

Longest Valley

Somehow in my life especially this season since mid of the year i have been in the Valley for like months... yupz.... long long recession... I wonder when can i walk out of this Valley or Recession... that's y feel kind of cranky in my mood recently... so if my crankiness affects u very sorry about it... yeah... wanna thank ppl who talked to me recently... yeah i seriously having a struggling time now... yeah... when will i see the sun shine again? who knows? yeah... things seem to be very messy now... soon mid terms are coming... today i feel so crap even in class i am totally switched off that kind... hmmmm.... trying to keep a good countenance everyday...trying to smile and joke around possible... yeah... still hoping for gd things to come

Uncertainty

Somehow the word "Uncertain" might describe how i feel recently... many things around me are so uncertain... which i kind of =( ... Uncertainty really paralyse someone in the sense that they do not know where to head too... somehow got lost somewhere... trying to find the way back to the path... hahaha think i think too much liaoz... hahah.... hope this will turn out well ba.... things will start to be clear... yeah... yupz...

Trying to start the engine to get into serious business in school... doing what a full time student should do ... rather than slacking away the time i have... trying hard to get into serious work... all the task i suppose to do the deadlines are nearing... mid term exams are nearing too... pls remind Kynneth to study ok? =)

Sat just had O comm dinner... had a great time with them... food is good.. yeah... trying to get the pictures... Juling, Caleb and Sandra pls send me the pictures!!! pls pls pls!!!

Sharon and Elaine!!! yeah =)

So now kind of feeling happier... but still hahaha... still trying to cope with the issues.... yupz... Azaa Azaa!!! =)

Circumstances

"Circumstances" ... This word somehow keep appearing in my life recently... somehow life on earth we are often being limited by circumstances... due to circumstances we worry... we tell ourselves can't be done... forget it... no point.... u know wat im trying to say? yeah... somehow circumstances become part of our life... most of the time we had the "how i wish i could" mentality... often we always focus on wat we dun have and often we feel depressed and sad... sometimes worrying and fear... and worst plunge into guilt... Yupz... sometimes myself i feel that way... how i wish i had more money... how i wish that i got gd grades that kind of thinking... which somehow limit me... letting fear and guilt to hold me back.... yeah this week service i had a preacher with no limbs... he is Nick Vujicic... he is a living example of wat he quoted " You don't need to change (your) circumstances to be victorious" yeah... somehow he live his life based on this verse...

Jeremiah 29:11 "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."

Somehow through his sharing... i learn to focus on wat i have... and try not to focus on wat i dun have... life will be much happier to live... yeah... i will try to do that yeah =) if you wanna know more about him... his website is... http://www.lifewithoutlimbs.org/ and i got a free dvd about him... after watching is very encouraging... even if u are the lowless pit after hearing him u somehow feel encouraged... at the end of the meeting this is wat he says... "There is no joy in my circumstances, but there is joy in the purpose of the circumstances" which i find it encouraging as he uses his circumstances to bring joy and hope as a motivational speaker to many discouraged youths and children... yeah...

Nick Vujicic

Thanks People For Responding To The Call For Help

Hi!! Thank you to all the ppl who responded to the call for helping my fren... you all have made a difference by contributing your part to register... my fren now is currently safe!!! yeah!!! Think i spam in my Yahoo groups until some not very kind ppl thought is a spam... i also heard that somehow i create a bad impression in all the yahoo groups as I'm in seen as a spammer... but who cares when a person is in need of help... like what Xinyu said is true... you know u are doing the right thing you dun have to worry yeah =) ... Anyway many things has happened during these few days and here's a summary:

1) I've Started my first run in dunno how many years. Yeah! Tml will run again.

2) These past few months i have been struggling in many areas. I had a gd chat with Joyce my fren. Somehow yah i realised i had a huge struggle inside of me... for example.. trying not to think so much yet u still think so much.... u know what i trying to say? yeah... so such type of struggle i had it for many years... especially in the area of Friendship and Relationship... yeah as usual...

3) Due to many types of stress like school stress in Yr 1 Sem 2, Emotional Stress which i had it most of the time during these few months and Busy Schedule.... Im BALDING.... yes at 24 years old... i didn't realise until my hairstylist told me when she feels my hair when i when for a cut... she says my hair is significantly thinner than a few months back... asking me am i having a lot of stress??

4) Missed Army Open House 07... hmmm shall go again next time ba =)

5) Congrates to all my frens who graduated from School Of Theology 2007 on Sunday!

6) Happy Birthday to Ching Cheng and Happy 21st Birthday to Jamie!!!

Yupz... somehow went through a lot... as i was in church on sunday... somehow i felt that i went through so much emotion turmoil... but i never blame God for what i went through... the world is imperfect.... filled with many imperfect ppl... causing many dissapointments and hurt... is like even the whole church of ppl forsake me i will still go to church no matter wat... even the worst case where i am barred from going to one church i will still go another.... cos i make a promise that no matter what i will never leave God becos i love God... yeah... somehow through these i learn to be stronger in my emotions and building my faith for a blessed future although sometimes things might be so "foggy" ahead where u cannot see the good things coming ahead... i am still hoping for good things that i am promised and the things i desire... all the wait is worth while...

Yeah... finally... next week going to hand in my tutorial for EC3322 Industrial Organisation... seen the question... all i had in my head was ????? .... hahaha so anybody can help pls help me ok? thanks! and before i go heres a couple of pictures of my fren's hamsters =)
