Another rainy day
I can't recall having sunshine on my face
All I feel is pain
All I wanna do is walk out of this place
But when I am stuck and I can't move
When I don't know what I should do
When I wonder if I'll ever make it through
I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
Your the one that's keeping my heart beating
I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
That's the only way that I'll find healing
Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing
Oh You're everything I need
And I gotta keep singing
nice song :) KEEP SINGING EVERYONE!
hahaha everyone who reads this line, i order you to SMILE now! come on, show some teeth! there's always something to smile about... so SMILE! nice big one! :D
and loads of thanks to juniors: peiling waiian yunxi tinky kezia for tagging!
and of course, much love and thanks goes to the kiddo too! :)
rmb smile!
ciao.

haha my studying is going so incredibly slow! but bio is done i'm glad to say. 18 pages of notes, hil-style! which isnt very much but hahaha i draw alot!
now next would be chem. wahh. how to organise man. ponder.
haha yesterday i studied. from 1-2. 1pm-2am! pro anot! but today woke up feeling super seh. and i did sth very blur on the bus.
cos i paid for my bus fare using coins on my way to church... then was like folding the ticket... folding folding... then reached the stop for church. went out by the front door. then on the way, hey there's a little bin for me to throw my ticket away! so i threw it. then was like !!!!!!!! wrongwrongwrong! thats the place where you put your coins in when you board the bus! looked at the driver to apologise but he didnt notice so i blurblur walk down the bus haha!
haha today's lesson was good. asked a few questions that had been on my mind... not really blatantly but indirectly haha! and we learnt the difference between mature and immature christians! wahh throughout the lessons as we covered the immature christians... can hear alot of sighing and "ahhhh-ing" and "ohno-ing" haha!
then we played foosball! this week not very fun... last week was funner. haha it takes time for me to warm up... but now i can whack balls hard haha!
hmms. lately i've been thinking about sec2. remembered the time when we were studying for eoys... mel and i came up with a song bout us studying chiyu (haha in the days when we still had to memorise chiyu! they would give us 200 i think)... along with the tune of maroon5's the sun. hahaha whenever i listen to maroon5 i feel vaguely sad. memories!
wahh chem how to organise info ah. ponder.
i think yunxi is super FUNNY hahahaha!
alright! e time will come when i can be normal again and devote my attentions to things other than exams! and really think through and ponder stuff over.
one thing benchong mentioned before which i find good is "the busier i get, the more time i make sure i spend with God."
that's the way, uh-huh!

hahaha! today we made the bio song! and its super fun to play and record it on the piano... can try out all the emo and happy and different styles haha! originally meant to be played on e guit but e guit went home so we ran to the piano and played. good thing, piano sounded better than e guit would have sounded.
we took e tune from "this is how you remind me" by nickelback and changed the words! its on genetic testing now. lol. man its sooo fun. esp like the part where the piano plays an emo tune! could be better with drums and maybe a bit of acoustic guit, but it was fine. some parts got a bit fast though haha!
and dino's voice and mine is totally different. her's is relatively high. mine is relatively low. haha when rach listened to it she was like "hil your voice is so low! sounds quite shuai eh!" hahaha! and our voices do not match! so throughout e song it had to be either her singing or me singing if not it'll clash terribly.
whenever i listen to the recording i laugh LOL.
This song is from the point of view of a person who is suspected to have gene that highly increases her chances of getting cancer.
The first verse is when she is pondering whether to go for a screening.
The prechorus and chorus is about her thinking about all the implications of genetic testing: one cannot run away from the results.
The second verse is about the discrimination she faces when people know that she carries the gene for cancer.
Lyrics:
[verse one]
family history had a cancer strand
so the doctor said to go for a scanning
but I worry what it will turn out as
cos I’ll never be the same again then
[prechorus]
this is how you remind me
of what I really have
this is how you remind me
of the truth I can’t hide
[chorus]
how can I
hide or run
from the genes that are encoded in me
insurance,
please save me
will it all end with a happy story
but then I
am not sure
if the truth will help or harm me
but to save my own life
I guess I’ll have to go
[verse two]
I’m still the same person inside
Will people look at me with fear in their eyes
Mothers pull their kids away from me
Why are people now avoiding me and
[prechorus]
is this how you remind me
of what I really have
is this how you remind me
of the truth I can’t hide
[chorus]
[verse one]
[chorus]
hahaha.
but on a sadder note. uncleben has left :( sadness.
Find this prayer meaningful. its been what i've been wanting to pray for myself and others for a long time and this is just whoa.
to quote:
"Dear Lord, I come to You today on behalf of a fallen brother in Christ--and on behalf of all the others like him who need Your touch. I lift them up to You. Please work through their broken spirits to raise up godly people. Let them never forget their frailness and human weaknesses, but help them always remember what You have done to carry them through the valley and bring them out of the pit. Ignite that smoldering spark and rekindle their spiritual life that they will be restored and stronger than ever. I pray that their lives will be testimonies of Your grace, mercy, and power to heal and to turn ashes into beauty. I pray for their families and friends, that You will minister to them also. Please restore relationships, mend hearts, and give strength to press on and move up for Your glory and their good. Thank You for Your willingness to forgive and to love unconditionally. Thank You for Jesus, who provided a way that we might be in Your presence and have fellowship with You. Now, may the fellowship of the saints be unbroken and the glory of the Lord abound. In Jesus' name I pray and give thanks. Amen."
and haha i think today all the sec4s received a letter with God as the stated writer... heard that it was from a particular junior... haha to that junior: thanks loads! it came at a great time. was a reminder to me, and it helped more than you would imagine i would think. haha keep blessing people like that yea? thanks again!
ciao.

haha i've decided. i love tablesoccer! its so fun. esp if you've perfected e art of whacking the ball really hard... until even the goalie can score goals! haha e thing bout playing it too much though is when you close your eyes you see e ball whizzing around being whacked by little plastic men. and you hear the "THACK!!!" when the ball hits the ends of the table... haha! satisfying man. awesome.
and also. i love floorball! its so fun. should play it more often. ahwells sept during the bbq then! got fuusball tournament! and floorball too! awesome.
another thing. i love pool! its so fun. we should play it more often too. someone get a pool table please! then i can perfect my skills! oh on thurs went out w uncle ben and two nieces. (kiddo where were you!) we played pool! uncleben is PRO at pool. haha but at one point sherlyn and him were chasing the little purple ball around. and the thing was it was right next to the hole. then you start seeing all the possible goofups haha! a jump ball, the stick just brushing the white ball, totally missing the purple ball, going around the purple ball but never touching it... hahaha! love pool. awesome.
as for bridge... haha i'm not good at it yet. still havent figured out how one wins in bridge. nevermind! i shall keep learning!
ah still got one more! i love mahjong! its so fun. but i havent played it in years. actually last year only la. at eliz's house LOL. and unless you count e mahjong game in my phone. haha. e game itself isnt bad la... its only when gambling comes into play. yet w mahjong and gambling is almost inseparable. cos when you gong e first thing you wanna do is ask for chips haha. but NO.
gambling is bad. it really is. and if God doesnt like it... then we shouldnt do it! so i won't gamble. i won't.
ahhh physics oh physics. so important in pool (angle of incidence= angle of reflection) yet so hard to study! actually no la physics isnt really hard once you get e concepts behind it. but ohhhhh physics. i shall draw a comic strip on you someday. after i'm done studying haha!
i wanna learn more dance moves. hiphop. not just e robotic actions haha. e dance crew at planetshakers had cool moves! those kinda moves seem pretty "in" now.
i wanna play floorballfuusballpool.
everyone's studying physics. zach was poring over his physics insights. kinematics. lydia also had to go study kinematics. then joseph suddenly out of nowhere ask me 1newton=? kg.
but i still gotta study MATH esp. oh differentiation! when the only thing that would not fear you is e to the power of x! haha you can't differentiate e to the power of x!
and ohh i love my black and white stripey socks!

to judge or not to judge?
one side:
why do we look at sawdust in other people's eyes and ignore the block of wood in ours?
who are we to judge, really?
God's e best judge cos He's qualified. He's holy, never sinned, wise, knows everything... haha best judge!
the other side:
read somewhere that if e bible states very blatantly against a sin, you should go and confront that bro/sis. that would be in a sense judging that person. but then again, its stated blatantly. so i dunno.
ponderings and ponderations.
ah! sth to add. what would be considered judging someone? cos you can disapprove... and still not judge. does judging come with the idea of condemnation or acceptance then? to gauge if that someone's actions is to be accepted or condemned? because you can just stop at disapproving or approving of someone's actions and still continue accepting and loving them. yes what does it mean to judge indeed?
ciao.

A thousand times I've failed
Still Your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
I'm caught in Your grace
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself
In bringing You praise
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart and my soul
Lord I give You control
Consume me from the inside out
Lord let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart
Is to bring You praise
From the inside out
Lord my soul cries out
man i love this song... the tune's nice, the words are nice...
the hillsongs united cd is GOOD.
ciao.
