! at 1:15 PM !

Please hear what I am not saying
Don' t be fooled by me
Don't be fooled by the face I wear
For I wear a thousand masks, masks
That I am afraid to take off...
And none of them are me
Pretending is an art that is second nature with me but don't be fooled
I give the impression that I am secure
That all is sunny and unruffled with me
That confidence is my name
And coolness is my game
That the water is calm and I am in command
And that I need no one
Please don't believe me. Please.

My surface may seem smooth
But my surface is my mask
Beneath this lies no complacence
Beneath dwells the real meIn confusion, in fear, and aloneness
But I hide this. I don't want anyone to know it
I panic at the thought of my weakness
And I fear of being exposed
That's why I frantically create a mask to hide behind
A nonchalant, sophisticated façade
To help me pretend
To shield me from the glance that knows
But such a glance is precisely my salvation
My only salvation and I know it
That is, if it is followed by acceptance
If it is followed by love
It is the only thing that will assure me
Of what I can't assure myself
That I am worth something

But I am afraid to tell you this
I don't dare. I am afraid to
I am afraid that your glance will not be
Followed by love and acceptance
I'm afraid you'll think less of me
That you'll laugh at me and your laugh will kill me
I'm afraid that deep down I'm nothing
That I'm no good
And that you will see this and reject me
So I play my game, my desperate game
And a trembling child within
And so begins the parade of masks
And my life becomes a front

I dislike hiding. Honestly
I dislike the superficial game I am playing
The phony game. I'd really like to be genuine
Spontaneous, and meBut you've got to help me
You've got to hold out your hand
Even when that's the last thing I seem to want
Only you can wipe away from my eyes
The blank stare of breathing death
Only you can call me into aliveness
Each time you're kind and gentle, and encouraging
Each time you try to understand because you care
My heart grows wings, very small wings
Very feeble wings but wings
With your sensitivity and sympathy
And your power of understanding
You breathe life into me
I want you to know that

I want you to know how important you are to me
How you can be the creator of the person that is me
If you choose. Please choose to.
You alone can break down the wall
Behind which I tremble
You alone can remove my mask
You alone can release me from my shadow-world of panic and uncertainty
From my lonely person. Do not pass me by.
Please do not pass me by
It will not be easy for you
A long conviction of worthlessness builds strong walls
The nearer you approach me, the blinder I strike back
I fight against the very thing I cry out for
But I am told that love is stronger than walls
And in this lies my hope
Please try to beat down those walls with firm hands
But with gentle hands, for a child is very sensitive
Who am I, you may wonder
I am someone you know very well
For I am everyone you meet.

~ a poem sent to me by dearest sis Annie - an apt reminder for us to keep reaching out to others and to look deep into the hearts of every individual who need the touch of God's love in their life...

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.~ 1 John 3:16-18

the above poem and verse were taken and copied from daphne's blog(:

what a sweet yet real poem! i totally love it and daphne's posts are always so encouraging and nice(: well the whole of last week was a great week! i felt really blessed by the Lord as He blessed me by just the simplest of all things - keeping me awake in class. Practically the whole i hardly felt any time when i was really tired except maybe, a couple of periods when i fell asleep. But its a great improvement and i really thank Him for providing me with His strength to go through this whole past week. had 4 tests all together. bio, emaths and chem were surprisingly quite easy and do-able while phy was as usual, un-do-able. well basically cuz i dont understand anyway.

yup and i love last friday night! which in other words yesterday night(: we watched the bloopers scene and also had the 'golden horse award thing'! hahaha well joshua was best actor, nicholas best supporting actor and geraldine best actress though it was supposed to be iris but she didnt go so yup. and their prizes were fruits hahaha! well i and some other teenz started playing those games we used to play in pri sch! it was enjoyable(: haha and now im hooked and addicted to those games already! haha and my hands hurt like i-dont-know-what. haha in short, i was terribly happy reliving my childhood games and playing all of them last night(: haha and me and jessie havent completed our 3 rounds of hand spanking scissors paper stone game! haha i won the 1st round! we've left with two rounds next fri must play to fen chu sheng fu! heh. and i played that scissors paper stone winner takes step back loser stretches leg game with jon muk! haha and at first it was pretty unfair cuz his legs were obviously so much longer than mine): haha but all thanks to LUCK i won the scissors paper stone part(: then i also played some black white grey sheep with jean and hai dai with her too! hahaha the hand spanking game i played with so many people until my hands were like sunburnt :/ but it was fun! haha i love it. in the end i think a whole lot of people were kinda scared of playing with me liao le! cuz i spank very hard de(: then i played with yufei but then he hit very gentle, haha guess its cuz he's a guy then if he use full force i'll probably die or smth. but i still spanked his hand very hard when i played(: haha mimi and nini dont want to play with me le - all scared of me :D hahaha.

today i nearly managed to go for the rock climbing activity at sp with mimi and the rest :/ but last min smth came up so i cldnt go): yup had medical check up in the morning and i was pretty depressed after that to the extent ithat i nearly cried D; but yea. luckily i had some super-comforting friends and i cheered up pretty soon esp after i start thinking of all the fun times i had like last night(: and now im quite happy le(:

recently there's some problems i encountered with my stupid tablet and its stupider charger and im pretty stressed and fustrated and irritated with the two of them. bah. all also about charging de. but i trust God will provide a way for me as long as i pray to Him about this and He'll help me(: well that's about all and mid years are in 6 days time so i better go study le. byebye(:

do you have any idea how much i want to be with you? how much i've missed those times; carved right into the middle of my heart. yes, those times spent with you. and yet, you're so ignorant of it all. how could you? i cant gather up enough courage to say those three little words to you, yet i dont know if you feel the same and will ever say those three little words to me.



<3, CASS.
