YAY!!! Its one of my sweetest bdae ever! =D

Wj and Anita just went home... they both came over to my house today to give me a suprise bdae celebration... honestly speaking, it was'nt some big celebration but i thought it was really meaningful and most of all, FUN FUN FUN!

The 2 kuku tried to light up the candle outside my house, but to no avail... all thanks to the strong wind.. haha.. then we snacked a little and chat chat... we were talking about all the weird people we have met... it was so damn funny!!!

Then after eating, we played wii... super fun as we were singing like nobody's business... and we also played guitar heroes. =D i dont know why, but ah neh seems so pro with the drums... wj and i cant get the hang of it.. hehe..

Anyway, im finally sixteen! Whee! hahas... actually, i thought that ahneh and wj kinda forgot abt my bdae since they did not inform me abt their suprise visit... hehe...

To ah neh and Wj:

Thanks for everything! This 16th bdae was indeed really special, not to mention, the present that u gals made for me... i am gonna wear it tml! =D I enjoyed the time spent with u 2 today... I really thank god for having you 2 as my good friends... even though we may have conflicts and disagreement with each other, i know that our friendship would stay strong... always remember that i will be here for the 2 of u whenever u need me, just like how u were there for me when i needed u. We may go different ways in the future but i hope that we will be closer than ever before. through the years of freindship with u 2, i've learnt and grown so much. no words can describe our friendship... its just so special that i will treasure it always... LUV YA BFFS!! <3


Also, thanks to everyone for the bdae wishes and presents ! I'm so glad to have u all as friends! =D

Haha.. I think wj would know what i'm gonna post here since i shared my thoughts with her over dinner on Thursday after Zoe Conference. =)

Zoe Conference was really impactful and i had a great experience. I really felt unstoppable after the word. Somehow, i could feel that there was nothing that could stop me from persuing my dreams. I went home and thought about my dreams and though i haven't really found out what is the talent that God has put in me, I am not going to let anyone or anything keep me from finding my dream. =)
The workshop that i attended made me felt really awkward at first as i'm not really used to such stuff... I even had the thought of changing workshop... But after much consideration, i felt why not try something new?
( skip skip skip all my inner thoughts...)

So anyway, i did have fun with the girls and Anita. =) thanks ah neh for coming! btw, sorry if u feel weird during praise and worship... =X

Today, went for service... Learnt something valuable which i really think does apply to me... ( this part should be written in my personal diary )

hehe... then had fellowship with cell again. =) Though i do miss those people in the previous cell, i think this new cell, W325 rox too! Somehow, with them, i could feel the love of God. =) I hope i could do something to contribute to the cell too... Love being with them and i really hope that our freindship would grow stronger =D

here are some photos from zoe conference...

I so need to reorganise my blog and update my facebook account... but i guess its only possible after i finish that pile of assignments stacked on my table. SOS!!!

1 week of the June holidays are gone! I'm left with 3 more weeks... I hope this june hoilday would be a fruitful one.

Last weekend was totally slack...

Friday's lesson was preety relaxing... we had our physics experiment, which turned out to be really funny... we had problems filling balloons with water... haha. Then in the night, went for arts festival in school... i thought that the performances were quite cool, and despite the super hot weather, i still did enjoy myself. =) went with a few of the ug council members including dear carina... lol... met lots of people too! i thought that not many would turn up that night but i guess i was wrong. =D
Then after that, i went out for supper with dad,mum and sis... went around looking for restaurants to dine in at abt 10pm in the night... after walking around orchard for like 15mins, we ended up in coffee bean... =( some misunderstanding occured... mum and sis kept saying that it wasn't my fault... but i kinda felt guilty cuz i wanted to make her birthday celebration a special one.. bleah...@.@

Then on Sat, we had worship session before service at damian's house... Phoebe spoke about Faith, Hope and Love. That got me thinking...

There are many things in our life that we may fear about... That day, i thought about my fears and then i relised that maybe i have to let the holy spirit lead me and not just keep it to myself... I should have more faith in God because when all things fail, God will never fail...

Hebrews 11:6
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Learned quite a bit at service too... =) I think saturday was really great because i finally found some answers to my questions. =) Yay!

So i guess, thats all for now! Hope i will be here again soon!

Mid-years & MT. O is over... Whats next?

INTENSIVE MUGGING

Hahaz... its true... we are left with 5 months till " the paper that decides your future" ( My mum always says that) Anyway, my blog is preety much dead and i'm expecting it to continue rotting cuz i doubt that i will be updating much.
I'm so glad that I'm able to write in english again. A week of chinese characters floating around my head is enough to drive me nuts! I've never been good in chinese... In primary school, i used to get scolded by my chinese teacher for failing my ting xie... and in sec school, it gets worse as it would be some sort of miracle if i pass chinese... =(

It's ok, if i don't do well for today's paper, at least i still have a chance to take it again in october ( although i pray that it would not happen )

Oh, and btw, thanks everyone for the good luck messages! =D

Gosh... POP is finally over... I can't believe it... Time passes like ultra fast?
Anyway, POP was very very memorable... ( I didn't cry ok..) haha..

Thanks sec 3s for all the hard work u have put into planning the POP... i know its not very easy planning POP and u girls have spent alot of time on it... so i want to say a BIG THANK YOU! =D

Sec 2s and Sec1s! Your performance is really nice and touching! It reminded me of my sec 1 and sec 2 days when we had to perform too... sec 1s.. your song is so touching.. i almost cried. Sec 2s, you girls were amazing! Love your dance. =)

Then, the dinner was very special. It felt like candle light dinner.. got the romantic atmosphere... hehe.. the food was great too! ( I bet the person who cooks it is carina's apperentice )

Games was totally wild... suddenly, everyone was running around, grabbing each other and trying to step the balloons... haha.. was fun + noisy with all our screaming...

Then, there was the exchange of presents... thanks SPARROW PATROL! for the bugs bunny! and jasmine patrol for the card... also, thanks all the juniors for the video and dedications... Sec 1s, thanks for the card and Sec 2s thanks for the heart shaped balloon =)

Sec 4s, the presents are very meaningful... i will definitely keep it in my special box. haha

The last part was the best... we had a cake and candles... kinda felt like birthday though.. there were 10 candles, representing each and everyone of the sec 4 guides ( Gabrielle, Hannah, Agnes, Carina, Nen Lian, Ming En, Hui Jun, Sarah, Xue Mei and Madalene). We sang " guiding light " and blew the candles.Finished the cake, and went home...
On my way home, i felt really different... I'm so proud of my juniors and so touched by what they actually did for us. Now, its time for me to hand over the responsibilities to the juniors. I know that the sec 3s will be able to take good care of the sec 1 and 2s... I pray that all of them will continue to have the guiding spirit in them and continue, learing and growing in guides. As i said in my speeech, unity is strength. Continue to perservere and stay strong together and you girls will be able to overcome any obstacles...

Sec 4s, our friendship does not end here. Guiding is the one that brought us all together and it will not be the one that separates us. I will continue to be there for u all, just like how you all were there for me through difficult times. I'm so sorry that the video i made can't be viewed... but i will give u all another copy tomorrow... Hope u like the friendship bracelet that i made though... Also, remember to continue writting our book... Thank you sec 4s for everything you have given me... you thought me how to be strong, initiative and perservering... You girls are really the reason for my passion in guiding. I will never ever forget the times i had in guiding with all of you. =)

Guiding had indeed chnaged my life. I never thought that i would be what i am today. It has thought me so much on life and friendship. This experience is a wonderful one and i truly thank God for all those amazing sisters in guiding. =)





















Thanks wen juan for coming to see my POP! =D love ya too!

Last friday was my last guide meeting. Deep down in my heart, i do feel sad. However, on the bright side, i actually saw my sec 3 guides growing into leaders. They may not be exactly ready to lead the juniors and bringing guides up to the next level. Yet, i choose to believe that with constant encouragement and guidance from us, they can exceed their potential.

Today, it felt like a whole new adventure for me. I no longer have to attend regular guide meetings, leading the juniors. Now, i can actually take a step back and watch them quietly. This experience is kinda different! Then, i also saw scouts having their POP. Its really different compared to the previous years where guides and scouts used to have combined POP. I'm really excited to see what the juniors are going to put up for us this friday... =)

Haha.. i still have lots of stuff to prepare for POP... and my speech too! hmm, i shall get going now! have to study ler... will definitely post about POP! =D

Hey! its a saturday and i've not been updating for quite some time...
I'm having flu and its raining outside... making me so sleepy..

Anyway, last Saturday, was the thiniking day celebration at SIS. Though i wasnt sitting with my company, i could really feel the guiding spirit. And once again, i was feeling a little sad that my guiding life is gonna end in a month time. =(

Guiding has taught me a lot on friendship and leadership and without the support of my "sisters", i dont ever think that i would get so much from guiding. Though we may be passing out soon, i think we will still remain as great friends... =D

As for class, Everybody is studying hard... We are all in the race car mode... I spend so little time at home!! =( but well, its only for a year and i guess time always flies preety fast. so yups, JY bah! =)

I think this will just be a short post.. hahaz.. i'm going out for dinner soon.
Guess i will have to upload the pics the next time i blog. =)

Just a short post today. =)

On my way home from guides today, i thought of POP again... I dont like the feeling of passing out so soon because it feels like I've just began to realise what guiding really really means. I hope that day doesnt come so soon. =(

Anyway, these few days i've been suffering from a cold and was sick throughout the weekend... just dont know why, but i get REALLY hungry when i'm sick... i keeping having craves for food though i cant really enjoy the taste of it due to the flu. Lol...

Sec 1 guides came last friday and things were quite great! =) the sec 1s are adapting well. hehe
Sec 3 guides are also improving alot too. I'm so glad to see our guides growing together as a company. =) Sec 4s are us usual, crazy and violent. haha... sometimes i wish i could play more with them.

Anyway, these few days, i have a lot of things going through my mind... i'm confused on some matters and i hope the answer to my problems would come soon. haiz.. why do we grow up so fast?

Bye! i'm off to study chinese. @.@



Life without friendship is like the sky without the sun.

All of us are created to be unique individuals, with different personalities. I'm sure everyone including myself, changes from time to time due to circumstances and our environment. Sometimes, we do have people that we admire and we try to adopt their outstanding qualities. That is'nt wrong. In fact, it is good to change for the better. But have you ever felt like a different person? Or become someone that you cant relate to anymore?

Why do people have to be someone they are not? Can't they just be themselves? i mean, the people who truly cares about u will be the one loving you for who you are and not what type of friends u have, what clothes u have, or even whether u are popular or not.

Another thing that i have been pondering about...

I felt really sad everytime i tried reaching out to her. I know the pain she is going through as we talked during bedtime. I know someone that would comfort her but she rejects me... How? how can i help her? i want to be there yet i dont know how... =(

Christmas day is over... =( that means that school is gonna reopen soon... I'm not done with my assignments... ahh! Went swimming this evening... haiyo... bones cracking ler..

Anyway, i had a fun x'mas! =)

On christmas eve, we went for 2 services at church! And the night before, i slept at 5am as i was busy wrapping presents. This year, i spent a bit on gifts and when i finish calculating the amount i spent, i almost died... but anyway, christmas i season for giving so i guess i shall just save more next few months. Hehe... i had lots of fun wrapping presents even though it took me hours. I was so freaking excited for christmas that night! =D So in the morning, i had to drag myself out of bed just to get ready to meet the others for x'mas celebration at jw church. Service at JW was one of the most memorable 1 as i was just so touched... The whole service almost left me speechless. It wasn't the activities that amazes me, but it was God's work that touches me... I teared while praying with Anita as i was just so so so happy. Though the message was short, i felt that this christmas was one of the most meaningful christmases ever. After service, i had mixed emotions... but soon, i got over it. I guess God will let me noe when is the right time. =)

Then after JW service, me and Wj, together with Li fang and wilson. haha... was just very happy so we decided to go 2 services... most of the things were same, exept that the crowd was unbelievable! there was such a long long queue that we had to go in through backdoor... we had no seats and had to share... a lot of ppl had to go to overflow room... Though we were all really exhausted, i think i had a great time. =)

CHRISTMAS DAY! hahaz... that day, i woke up super late and didnt do much in the afternoon... but in the evening, i went to jasmine jie's house for family x'mas party! had lots of yummy food! haha... ate turkey, ham,beef,cupcakes,potato salad,salad,jelly and last but not least, swensens log cake! yum yum... =) spent time catching up with cousins and relatives... everyone was like playing wii after dinner... uncles+kids.... haha.. even video taped that down! =) then we had gift exchange... and my family got the Taka gift voucher! Whee!! shopping time! haha... jkjk.=D

overall, i felt this christmas was meaningful as we did spend time with friends and family... hehe.. before i end my post, i shall post some pics... ohoh! and my favourite x'mas song this year. =D

The First Noel





The First Noel - Carrie Underwood

and here are the pics!

My house is totally Rocking at the momment... haha.. soon, i will have parents who skii all night long along with drummer sis. Me? haha.. i'm doing everything... from yoga to the electric guitar. LOL... My family has been playing wii for the past few nights... sorry neighbours!

This week, i've been sucking up $$$ from my piggy bank. I am going so broke, watching 4 movies in a week and eating out almost everyday. =( money money money... bleah

On monday, i went out with Nat and it was great catching up with her after 2 years! hahaz... went borders,movie and window shopping. I cant resist bookstores anymore... there are really so many books that i want to read!!

Then on tues, went back sch to clean up guide den as it was left in a mess during our camp. hehe.. had loads of fun with the sec 3s! Ohoh! and i cleaned the windows! =D big accomplishment as i had delayed this window cleaning job for like many months? And while cleaning, the guide den suddenly transformed into a gambling den... haha. Then after that, we discussed sec 1 orientation stuff and off we went to lunch. (only me and hj) cuz the rest have to go home... anyway, we watched Madagascar 2! hehe... very cute movie.

On weds, went watching four christmas at vivo with wj,bhav and hb. ok... at least i get to meet up with wj. haha... when u go out with bhav, you eat fresh only! =) then dad came to pick me and wj home. =D

Thurs, i felt really lazy, so i practically slacked the whole day. =X ( not a very wise choice as i still have lots of untouched assignments piling up) Then at night, we went for dinner and then to Ben &Jerry's for supper. yum yum..

Fri was my grandpa's birthday! Went over to grandma's to celebrate! hehe.. no cakes as my family doesnt like cakes for birthday... =)

Then sat, went for make -up cg with wj. Reflected a lot on 3 greatest things that God has blessed us with in 2008. I had really lots to say, but some are quite personal lah... God has indeed blessed me a lot this year, even on the tiniest things that may seem really insignificant. Wj said that 2009 will be a good year. though it may sound ironic due to O's and the economy. however, i choose to believe. =) Then went we headed to church! hehe.. i got a bookmark from Wj. Thanks! =D Service was good and so was dinner. =)

last but not least, sunday! There was connect group movie outing and "Bolt" was the movie that we watched. hehe.. the outing was fun as many turned up! oh yah! Anita the makan guru went too! We had lunch at some restaurant with free flow of drinks and ice cream. Played a game and me and anita had to drink some weird substance.. cuz that was the forfeet. horrible but fun. =)

Overall, this week has been pure enjoyment. So i guess i better start craking on my assignments soon. haha...

CHRISTMAS IS COMING!! I think its gonna be really fun cuz i have lots of activities this year! =) presents, candlelight service, xmas drama, xmas party!! =D

See ya soon!
