! at 9:26 PM !

2nd week of school! Goodness. So fast! Heh. Being a year 2 feels really strange now. Okay, not strange, but just. Different. It's not such a bad thing I suppose. I suppose mainly 'cause quite a few people I know are in NP now! :D But in some ways I do miss being a freshie :D

Anyway. Woke up late for school today, plus I had stomach ache ))): ah wells.

Anyway, during lunch break, we had a mini birthday celebration for Jasmine and Chu Hui. It was pretty okay I suppose. Well, Sara got the cake, I rushed to makan place to get tissues, and all of us kept trying to get Alee and Juian out of class! Hahaha! Juian took like, FOREVER!!! But then they had lecture lah, it was very nice of them to escape class just to join in the celebration. The celebration was so last min please!!! But at least practically everyone turned up, including Manhong who said she couldn't at first! :D Well. I hope Jasmine and Chu Hui were happy with the last-min-mini celebration... (: I don't know how the others feel about it though. But if anyone feels that it was a flop... I'm really sorry about it. I know it was the one-hour lunch break for most of us and then it started really late 'cause a lot of people came late... But I'm so sorry about it yeah. And I'm really sorry if any of you had to miss lunch just 'cause of the celebration. ://

Anyway, last week was ultra hectic for me. For the first 2 days I had to worry about CCA Fiesta. Okay, not really worry lah. But seeing as how I'm like, the main IC, it was a load on my mind. I AM SO GLAD THAT IT IS OVER! Well, after CCA Fiesta, the dance4fund thingy came along. Well, although HMS didn't win this time round, it was nonetheless excellent effort put in. I think this event also brought me closer to HMS people (: It was also during all the dance rehearsals that I saw the efforts of Matthew & Jasmine. It made me appreciate them and their efforts more, & even interact with them more often. It really is through working together with one another that allows us to know one another better, to break whatever judgemental barriers we had based on first impressions. & God, I pray that You'll continue to guide my attitude towards people, to help me not be judgemental, & even to not be 'clique-ish' in any sense. Well, I still declare the dance event for HMS a success! :D

Haha, it was so busy last week that I really agree with what Kenn said. "We never walked out of school in the daylight this whole week!" Well, I did, once on Monday but still! Haha.

Wednesday was the worst 'cause dance rehearsal ended at like, 10 plus for us. & by then I still haven't had dinner. I was pretty hungry initially, but upon arriving at Macs with Tecky, Kenn, Manhong, Yong Chuan and Darren, I realised that Macs killed my appetite. I don't know why either but I ended up eating just an apple pie and Chocolate milkshake for dinner. Not hungry anymore I guess :x The next day's class was at 9am!!! Financial Management. I ALMOST DIED. Halfway lah, through the lesson. Although it was a pretty interesting lesson, I still felt like dying. Thank God that as I was about to doze off, the teacher called for an early break! I so totally needed it :D I immediately went to power nap! Haha. Well, school overall was okay, I didn't really fall asleep during lessons :D Thank God so much for that for sustaining me!

&&&. I need to really do QT regularly!

The start of another week. I need to continue to depend on Your grace. For You said that Your grace is sufficient for me. & I claim that promise. (:

Difficulty is actually the atmosphere surrounding a miracle or a miracle in its initial stage. yet if it is to be a great miracle, the surrounding condition will not simply be a difficulty but an utter impossibility. And it is the clinging hand of His child that makes a desperate situation a delight to God. - Andrew Murray
Man's weakness, God's power. (:

Yes God, Your will, not mine. :D

FINALLY. I'M HERE TO BLOG.

THINGS TO BLOG ABOUT:
1. FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
2. HMS ORIENTATION CAMP
3. YEP VIETNAM TRIP

Anyway. Life's been so busy lately, so many things to do, so little time. Like what most people who know me always say, I seem to have 48 hours on my hands. Sadly, it's untrue. ): I would really love more time to do more stuff. But I suppose the question here is. For Who am I doing it?

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

First day of school was AWESOME. God really blessed me today and met my needs! Haha. Today I was doing QT at Makan Place with sheena & sheryl. I read Pro 20, (as today's the 20th!) and when I came to verse 13, I knew at once it was a message directly from God.

V13: Do not love sleep or you will grow poor; stay awake and you will have food to spare.

Seriously. I was so amazed by that verse that God showed me. For the past few days I've not had much sleep, and despite being excited for the first day of school, I still felt sleepy. Thank You God, for the message!

CCA Fiesta set up is finally done! Another couple of days more & no more CCA Fiesta!

Haha, and God really met my need! He knows I was in no condition to attend lessons, much less a 2 hour tutorial continued by a 2 hour lecture by the same teacher... So! He gave me a break :D The teacher had to be admitted into the hospital for some medical checkup. Kinda poor thing though. She missed the first day of school. But yeah. So (2B01 now) only had a 2 hour tutorial on AST, advanced speech training. First lesson was already a little tough, all the weird constants and theie phonetics sounds. Not phonics. 2 TOTALLY DIFFERENT THINGS despite having similar names. Grr. But interesting lah. I think. After I get used to it. Some of us went to the CCA fiesta to look see look see. :D Had some fun there, saw some people that I've not seen for ages, got Candy Floss then I went off already. Went shopping with RJ, Pris, Lat, Jelly, Yvonne! We had a jolly good time, forcing Jelly to buy the shawl dress, buying RJ's birthday present - the long long long green dress & forcing her to promise to wear it to school on friday, & the other 4 of us buying shoes! Finally, I have a pair of casual pumps. :D Cute ones too, & they're the same as Yvonne! :D Well. That typically concludes the end of my first day in school. Not so much of being in school though. ;D

HMS ORIENTATION CAMP

It was pretty interesting. My first project since joining the Exco. It was a learning experience, working with people whom I don't really know. Of all the people in Exco, I probably only started out knowing a couple of the senior comm members. Plus I joined 2 meetings late. It was pretty tough at first, having to learn names, trying to be more sociable and know the Exco better. The first meeting with them was awkward initially (as expected), but I really thank God for Sara, Chu Hui & Darren. The first 3 friends I made. Okay Sara being the first, we just clicked on the topic of books on the MRT & our friendship built up from there on. After my 1st meeting with them at the airport, Sara, Chu Hui, Darren & I walked around the airport & finally settled down in TCC. The idea of setting up a book club came about, for book lovers like us. A bold plan, a daring one. Probably one of the rare rash things I've done in my life where I try to turn fantasies into realities. We started planning on our own etc etc. I've even emailed Ms Chong to see if she can help us. We'll know by Friday. I don't mind starting it, but I know I wanna take things slow with that idea. It's not on my topmost piority list right now. But it'll be a dream come true.

Well, the later few meetings were slightly better. I got to know Angelin, Matthew, Weiting, Fiona, Jasmine & Kay Yong better. Bit by bit. At least names were starting to fall in place for me. I chose to join the night games committee. I hope I was a good member. I suppose my 2 week trip & absence from the pre camp caused a bit of inconvenience here & there (probably mostly for me). I had to catch up on the whirl of things when I came back. The night games comm consisted of Weiting as the leader, Fiona, Kay Yong, Sara & I. I'm not sure if through this event, the 5 of us actually grew closer to one another... Or further apart. I'm really hoping for the best.

Ange's my co-house captain & Matt stood in for me when I was away from pre camp. Thus, he just stayed on as my co-house captain. Well. At least out of everything. I got to know Matthew and Ange better. Ange the most! Her and her 'not-so-secret-love'! ;D I really thank God that Keala's GLs were so nice to me. Like, despite me not being there from the beginning at pre camp, they just warmly welcomed me into their midst like an old friend. Bits of awkwardness in the beginning, but all it took was one to two sessions for us to be able to chill and hang out.

Upon reflection, I realise that there are lots of struggles, lots of unresolved misunderstandings, silent conflicts etc. Enough for me to feel discouraged, tired, handicapped, disappointed, uncertain, scared. I just wanna cry with all the uncertainty in me. All these negative feelings welling up in me. I suppose within me, there's a sense of power hunger. Maybe I'm not used to being less than the elite. Maybe that's the problem with me. If it's true, if only 4 can stay on... I know I'll want to be one of them. Yet, I don't think I've proven myself to be worthy of staying on. At least not this time round. God, please just take away any power hunger within me. I came in to learn, to glorify You. Help me to serve more and more to bring a good testimony to Your name. Yet, I wonder. If all this while I've actually been depending on myself, depending on people, on anything but the Holy Spirit. God, guide me & fill me with Your love & patience. Let it overflow out to the people around me. Give me a servant's heart, a willing heart.

Okay. Think I've got to leave Vietnam trip till the next post. Feeling too reflective to reflect any further.
