Yay! the long weekday/weekends are here! no school on thurs & friday, whee (: today's cool. nothing bad happened, 9am tax tutorial and we had a tax quiz. (realised how weak i was, better start practicing for CT) common tests coming real soon, better buck up! maybe there'll be a 10% chance of getting into a local uni, into banking/business specifically. well, had lunch (bubble tea + chik hot plate noods) with jol & oli. headed home for a 3 hour nap before busing back to school for training. today, we ran ran ran ran ran, and nothing else. daniel's plan was 2 rounds warm-up, and then a long run at rifle range road. its a really good place to run, very light traffic, breezy, long straight road where we see no end. hah. but my mind failed me again, i stopped at the upslopes! hahahaha, gotta push. had dinner with a few of them at bukit timah mkt. funny lance & markus with the cheena slang & usual nonsensical jokes. a great bunch of sailors (: Club AGM's next wednesday, its time to pass the baton. Hope they'll do a great job, better than what we've done (: whoooppeee! meeting boyf tmrw, jol & mahjong gang on friday (:

*Life isnt all that tough, think simple....

Its a good day today :) Simple, yet time was well spent. Churched. Went for Sunday school today and service after that. Headed to Dempsey for Margaritas with Joel & his parents & my cutest sister ever. Ive been wanting to give them a treat cus jo's parents always brought me out for food :) real good food :) haha. We ate so much, was even too full for dinner! heeeee.

Anws, ive reaally gotta learn to place my priorities right and know whats important in life. Ive been telling myself to be more fervent in prayer and to love God more. But i guess im falling away, and its a really bad thing. Im depending more on myself instead of putting all my trust, burdens, problems on Christ. Probably thats why im getting more irritated/agitated/attitudey nowadays. Horrible me. i need a serious wake up call.


Anyhows, school's getting real busy. Projects which i know-not-how to work on and i really hope this last semester in school would be a fulfilling one. Slack no further about my tutorials,projects,lectures and do my best for the Sailing Club.

All in all, i really thank God for my life. God is in control in everything i do, He has his plans for me and everyday is a testing, of how good a person can make out of every single day. Sinning or Following His Word & Commandments? To be of a character worthy to be called a Son of God or a Sinner who curse/gossip/talk bad? Your Choice. Just some reflection. heh. Anyhows, though i do face upsetting times, still.. the Lord delivers me out of every situation through His way. Im just amazed how life can be so smooth for me, with everything set in place. I guess ive been taking some things for granted many a times, e.g. not spending enough time with my Family (esp granny). Prolly, when i just put all aside and think back upon my life, i might earn something outta it. (Character-revamping needs to be done immediately!)

something sweet, soothing...
