God!
Why do I feel so overwhelmed now?
It just feels so stressful...
I don't know if I am doing the right thing...
What should I do with this part of my life?
I need to focus somewhere...
Help me, God!

Game On!
Today, I just came across some of the goals that i set during the OBS leadership programme with NYP. I wrote them on a large orange card and pasted it on my cupboard. It fell off so i decided to take a look at it. Here they are...
- To become an effective leader by being flexible in leading the Ambassadorial Team with different leadership models next year.
- To build up a strong group of capable leaders within the current and upcoming batches of A-Team members from this coming semester.
- To lead my fellow Ambassadors to truly become good representatives of NYP in order to contribute to the image of the school in preparation for various events in 2010!
Well, I hope that these goals would come true next year!!!

WOW!!!
It has been ages since I last posted something!
Anyways, today is a very happy day for me! Let me explain why!
Slightly over a month ago, my laptop's keyboard suddenly malfunctioned, causing several keys to become unusable! The cause of the malfunction was unknown, but it definitely brought much inconvenience to me!
Here are the keys that stopped working:
) 0 _ - = + p { [ } ] ; : ' " / ?
Yes, i know! How can anyone survive without these important keys!!! Well, i'm glad to say that I did! But it wasn't all that easy from the start!
At first, i was left frustrated when i kept pressing empty keys which resulted in me typing many incomplete words as I was trying to use MSN! Furthermore, it was during a period of time where i really needed my laptop to complete my school projects!
Fortunately for me, I discovered a HP Windows Vista default: The On-Screen Keyboard!
This has been my life saver for the past month! But, it was an interesting phase that I had been through - type then click, type then click! You see. Whenever I arrived at a missing key whilst I was typing, I had to refer to the On-Screen Keyboard to click for it!
My friends and family were all so amused by it! They even laughed at me saying, "No wonder you're not playing Typing Maniac on Facebook!" That's because I will definitely keep losing! Haha!
BUT. Just minutes ago, as I was chatting on MSN, I accidentally pressed the letter "p" on my keyboard. To my surprise, the "p" actually appeared where I wanted it to be!!! I was so shocked!!! I can't believe that it just... WORKED!
After weeks of torture and frustration trying to type what I want, and going to the HP customer service center in Alexandra in an attempt to have it fixed, but only returning home in disappointment knowing that my warranty had ended and that it would cost me $161.65 to fix it - it finally just worked on its own! WOO HOO!~
I'm really happy! That's why I decided to blog about it immediately!! This experience definitely taught me to treasure the letter "P" as I realised how often I had to use it in "proposals", "camps", "prepare", "photos", "NYP", "polytechnic", "project" and many other "important" words!!!
Thank God for this miracle!!!

Getting through this time...
Today, i'm on the Purpose-Driven Life Book Day 19.
Almost at the middle of my 40-day discovery with God. My life has been quite a challenge for me in the past few weeks. I'm on a roller-coaster ride everyday. But it's just that now i'm riding on a really bumpy stretch...
Oh. How much my heart longs for it all to end. But looking down from the 13th floor where I live makes me realise how i don't want my life to just end that way. What's the point?
I'm not even 18 yet. But why does it seem like i've gone through so much? Why is it so hard to just move on with life? Does every (almost) 18-year-old face the same circumstances as I do?
My life is in Christ. That is the greatest purpose and meaning to life that anyone could ever as for! But why does it hurt so much. I know this journey isn't going to be easy...
I just pray that i'll survive and reach the end.
(To anyone reading this. Please be praying for me. Thank you.)

I choose to love You.
Dear Jesus,
I am sorry. I know that I have sinned against You time and time again. But only today, I suddenly realize how it must have been hurting your heart when I felt the pain today. I've been living with this guilt for the whole day. Until now, this feeling is just so unbearable.
Jesus, I need You. My heart is so burdened and heavy with my sins. I never fail to see them coming back to mind from my unforgotten memory. Although it belongs to the past, I can't seem to leave it alone and move on to the future. Lord, have you forgiven me?
How do I know if I have truly repented? I can say 'sorry' or 'please forgive me' as many times as I want. But how many times has it been truly sincere? Is is my walk with You that isn't strong and closely bonded? Why does it seem that I can never understand Your heart? Or even mine?
GOD. I'm tired of living my life as a hypocrite. I do not deserve the praises and compliments that I receive from others who don't know my true self. Lord, Renew my heart. Cleanse my mind. Refresh my spirit. Humble my soul. I choose to love You.
Amen.

well, that's the one word that i remember from yesterday morning's MicroEconomics lecture. And the Semestrial Exam Timetable is out! it'll be from the 3rd week of Feb '09. Thank God that the schedule looks quite evenly spaced out...
anyways, after oral com tutorial, i had lunch with yaping & meiting before going up to the IBRC to do our Econs project. at first, i was just feel so lethargic after lunch. but even after mingyong came, i still wasn't able to focus on doing anything!
then at 330pm, we decided to take a break and attended the NUS Talk at LTC-2. we met some of our classmates there too. the speaker was Dr. Helen Chai from the NUS business school. after some questions following her presentation, here is my conclusion:

I need to achieve a GPA of at least 3.6 and my options related to Hospitality in NUS business school are Marketing and Management.
soon after that, i suddenly got really hyped up to completing the Econs project! i was so motivated after that talk to do really well in my studies!
in the evening, i attended the Synergy 2009 briefing. i am getting prepared to PLAY HARD as much as i should WORK HARD! I pray for God's strength and guidance for the next few weeks as i go through this important period!
In Jesus' most precious name. Amen!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009!!!
WOW! it has been an awesome start to 2009! on new year's eve, i just thought that i would be simply celebrating the new year at home with my family...
but at around 8pm, i got a msg from jiangwei to countdown with the bbsgb people! i was with jiangwei, ben tan, shawn, yiting, joshua, gregory, christopher, yongjie, weili, keqin & zhengjie at the Marina barrage to watch the awesome fireworks - marking the start of a brand new year!!!
after that, we bought drinks at starbucks together and toasted to the new year (and the end of a very successful BBSGB!) We waited until clifford, gavin, julius, eddie and some other friends to arrive before we walked to seah street to play pool at pool fusion! There, we met kelvin & baoling who joined us! (:
we had much fun & fellowship playing together... but at around 330am, we left the place and walked to bugis mac for breakfast at 430am! we ate heartily and i enjoyed every single bite! having eaten our breakfast, we strolled and sang our way back to city hall mrt! we had to wait for the station to open and for the trains to start! by then, it was almost 7am!
after saying our good-byes, we left for our own platforms and slept through our ride back to bishan. i rushed home asap and had a quick shower! i fell asleep as soon as my head touched my pillow (:
overall, my new year was quite awesome and i was glad to spend it with my new BBSGB friends! here are some photos of the whacky bunch:~
anyways, here are some new year resolutions for 2009!
- To follow God's ways more closely everyday, living a pure and holy life!
- To challenge myself to seize new opportunities given to me, making sure that my best is put in at all times!
- To make a conscious effort to share God's love with my classmates so that they too may see and know the purpose of their life!
- To grow to be more prominent as a leader in the Boys' Brigade and to leave a legacy of love and hope to all who i will meet!
- To transform FISH & CO. to become a cell group that truly longs to shine for Jesus!
- To excel in my studies through sheer will and determination to achieve good results!
God bless all my prayers & happy new year 2009!!! :D
