WHAT UP PALS! IT'S FINALLY FRIDAY! (: Is it me or is time just passing by super quickly like nobody's business? The past few days have been tiring I must say. I've had new assignments thrown to me (or us = 1.2 sem people) and it's like there are so many datelines I can't keep track of them! Even though our term break will be in about 2 weeks time, within that 2 weeks, my project groups want to meet up to finish up our work. God please help me. There is so much work to do! 

With that said, I'm really so glad that my social psychology presentation is over! I didn't really put in my 100% today, so it won't be a surprise if my grade is kinda low for this presentation. Aiya, it's over, don't have to think about it anymore! I kinda enjoyed the long speech comm + soc psy lesson today, even though we started at 9 but it was enjoyable. 

My class, as you may have figured out from photos below, loves coming up with 'synchronised-dressing-theme' day haha! Today was supposedly 'Secondary School' but like half the class didn't dress up today whoops! But you know, I'm really loving how crazy my class is. Every class has their inside jokes, and I'm proud to say my class, T108, has our side of inside jokes! *jellyfishes* Even though our class is slightly competitive (as said by other classes...) I am so thankful to have them as my classmates because each of them are so different and unique in their own ways! And they are really super funny! 

Sigh pie, I think I have to start working on my assignments soon. I really want to blog and share about my days but I have no time! I'll maybe talk about it like really short each day if possible, but then again, someone please give me time or perhaps ask the teachers to stop giving us so much work! Hehe.. Anyway, it's time for me to go now. Bye bye for now yeah :) 

(darn photo abit blur, but yeah, this was before the fmsc interview!)

(i seriously love this photo we da whacky kiddos)

(dress-code-breakers lol)

First impression of Leon. "N to the G to the double E, A to the double N, it's NGEE ANN *clap clap* NGEE ANN *clap clap*." And he started going crazy and asking us, freshies, to do some weird action. This marked the start of my FOC camp, my NP journey. How appropriate ah, learning the NP cheer immediately when I step into NP for my first camp! I never expected this crazy guy to be my leader haha but I must say, I am super thankful to have him as my GL! (If you really do read this Leon, I'm so proud to have you as my GL!)

He's such a great entertainer, and obviously has loads of tricks up his sleeves. I recalled him lying to us the first time during our group introduction, saying what nonsense he from IBZ, then changed to say he from BA -.- And everyone believed him lah! But despite all the rubbish things, he kept encouraging my group and he never gave up on us. Even though during FOC there were times when Hellictus (my group ^^) didn't cheer loud enough, he kept giving us those pep talks! Plus, he kept telling us stories about his secondary school and all his other retarded stories like the thai disco incident and the "red rose" song lol! Super fun and we really bonded a lot thanks to him! And on the last day, he lah, first GL to cry then make everyone follow him and cry... But you know, this is what I call memories. Memories of all the (cliche alert) laughter and tears, the bonding through the dirty and wet games, and just our dinners and outings!

Have a great day Leon, you're really the best (male) GL anyone can have and Hellictus is so proud to have you as our leader! Truly, you inspire me to even be a GL myself one day. Just continue to be crazy lah, you so kee-siao! Study hard and see you soon yup (:

(birthday boy Leon)

Well, yesterday my class decided to go 'CHECKERED' and majority of them wore the dress code. Quite cool I must say, like one clan like that hah! Today is 'PINK WEDNESDAY' so most of us are in pink/red.. And we are going to have subsequent dress themes... Don't judge. This is called class spirit! United as one! Really enjoying the time spent with them! Thank God so much that they are my first class in NP!

(t108! plus a few more missing souls...)

(it's PINK WED! & we look like we're going for cny visitation lol!)

So anyway, we celebrated Leon's birthday last night and it was really awesome to be able to go for a Hellictus dinner. I've not met the group in like a month? and seeing them really brought back memories, especially since today we were preparing for the celebration at the grandstand, AHHH!! I miss FOC so much, my group, the cheering, the games, everything! One day, I shall have a post dedicated just to FOC. Hehe. Well, guess I'll just end here for today, bye bye! But wait, let me introduce you to some of my friends!

(seriously he had problems smiling yesterday and he kept falling down, suay day for Bryan~)

(my bestest closest buddy in the group, who went through all the shit with me hehe, Hayley <3)

(abit weird ah, but yeah, focus on my cool checkered bumblebee dress everyone heehee!)

OKAY THANKS EVERYONE~~~ 

UPDATE: I HAVE HANDED IN MY GRACOMM ASSIGNMENT!

Haha, please guys, congratulate me because my nightmare is finally over! Anyway, Sunday was an awesome day (: J got baptised and everyone was so happy for him! Ok, I was super ultra happy for him ^^ Everyone cheered and wooooo-ed for him, lol! And I gave him a pink rose HAHA! All those aside, it just felt good seeing another 2 people publicly declaring that they want to follow God. His kingdom is expanding each day you know!

I actually wanted to get baptised myself the same day as J but obviously I didn't. Ever since poly started, I felt that I was backsliding as a Christian, wasn't worthy enough. The way I talk changed slightly and I wasn't proud of it. I just really felt like I wasn't good enough and I was ashamed, really. I didn't go for youth as much, constantly coming up with excuses such as "I have too much work now" or "I'm kind of tired, I need to rest". I didn't do my qt either. Basically put it, I just felt horrible and decided to scrap the idea of getting baptised. But throughout this time, this thought still remained planted at the back of my mind. After seeing him get baptised and with all the excitement, it kind of made me want to get baptised even more. Some of us may just feel that it's just dipping into water and coming out of it, like there is nothing much. 

But God's word states in Matthew 28:19-20 "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." And I guess this has sort of "spurred" me and made me want to be a better Christian. Being baptised to me, it is a public declaration, but I think it sort of gives you reminders? Because when you're baptised, people will know you're baptised, then they will expect you to act properly. So in a sense, they will always "keep check" for you. I really hope I'm making sense, I don't really know how to put it in words... But well, you sort of get the point yeah! 

I've been trying to face my difficult situations in school in a more positive way, and I must say it's helping! Believing that God will multiply my time and give me more time to complete my work. I guess for now, school work is manageable, or maybe because my datelines are next week that's why I'm not that kanchiong yet lol! But yes, I believe I can do it, and I can achieve it (self-efficacy hah!) HOORAY! 

Those were the days when i used to turn on to starhub channel 33 and glue my eyes to the tv. And just what did i watch? THIS.

THE SUITE LIFE OF ZACK AND CODY WAS MY LIFE. I loved this show to the max! Recently, my sister started watching it on YouTube again, and she has got me addicted to watching it too. I really love the twins, they are mischievous and cute! Then there's London Tipton, the ultimate bimbo. And who can forget Maddie the candy girl haha! I really miss watching it so much. But I prefer the Suite Life of Zack and Cody (hotel edition) not the Suite Life on Deck. Oh whatever, I just love them! Okay, back to gracomm. I've been watching them for super long on YouTube to get inspiration for my assignment.. Yeah right.. Hehe ;) 

from this

to this ^^

go watch it and remember the good ol' hilarious moments! 

AND REMEMBER WHEN JESSE MCCARTNEY CAME ON 1 EP! he's so cute too gahhh, those eyes :)

(want some? heh)

Woke up to a rainy Friday morning. Thank God it's Friday! *TGIF TGIF TGIF* It felt so good to wake up late and just sleep in. For the past few days, I have been waking up late and all of you should know that ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL FEELING of waking up early... Your bed just always seems to be asking you to never leave it, to be with it forever in sickness and in health... Ahh I love my bed a lot, the soft sheets and my favourite bolster and pillow and my super adorable fat cat (it's the name of my huge soft toy cat) and my joey!

Spent like 2-3 hours just doing my gracomm assignment, it's looking good so far! Thank God I'm closer to completion, cannot wait to just submit it and move on with life! Oh wait, I still have the Bauhaus poster. NOOOOOO! Ok, I shall worry about that another day. Took like a close-to-2h nap, agh the joys of sleeping! My dad wanted me to watch 'Bobby Fischer Against The World'. It's this documentary about Bobby Fischer, the world's greatest chess player who ever lived. Sadly, I'm not a documentary person, at least not watching these kind of documentaries lah.. Did some grocery shopping with my mom in the evening, and she finally allowed me buy Liese, that hair dye shampoo thingy! Excited to try it out! :) (but i'll only try it during the holidays, now no time to do it..) Anyway, mom's cooking beef stew for subsequent dinner meals, IT'S THE BEST STEW COOKED WITH LOVE KAY! Hah. Well, it's time for me to go do my assignment. I really hope I can clear it by tomorrow. It's giving me so much headache ugh. Bye bye!

(meet Bauhaus, credits to Google images, I'll have to design a poster based on this 'concept' O.O)

(movie of the night, if I complete my assignment! you guys should watch it and cry like I did lol)

VERSE OF THE DAY: 
Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Time for the story of the day! Well, I'm pretty sure many of you have had rough days and suay suay the past few days deemed to be those rough days for me. I have this assignment due today (thankfully the teacher sort of extended it till Monday) and I'm only 3/4 done with it, and I still have to go and get it printed, HIGH QUALITY EDITION. I feel like it's such a struggle doing this assignment, and everyone else practically feels the same way. Everyone seems to be on task and like many of them have finished their work. Guess how I'm feeling now? *insert explosions and bombs* hah! But you know, I came across this verse from Isaiah 41:10 and it says: So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. 

After reading that verse, I felt strongly encouraged. It's like God really speaks to you through His words even though it was written like super long ago. No matter how exhausted I am, I know God is just a prayer away and I can always just talk to Him as and when I want to. But man, sometimes it's hard to remember. Then again, we're not perfect, we have to always keep trying! :) And if you think of it, the fact that my teacher sort of extended the dateline, seems to be like God giving me some more time! Really thankful for that! (thank you God ^^)

Went back to PL yesterday for PB installation. It was so good to be back at home! Haha. Talked to teachers and saw my cute little juniors and kids. Really miss being in PL... I think the best year of my PL journey would be the final year. Not because it was the final year = we rule the school, but I guess the events that happened was really the most memorable. My life changed for the better that year, no kidding, I'll leave that story for another day when it's my 'recap' day heh. Nonetheless, it was super fun heading back to school yesterday and catching up with Delia and Eunice. Okay, I shall stop here for today. Bye guys! :)

(i miss you 2 kiddos) 

Happy birthday Bear! ^^ (and this is just too cool, our coincidental-totally-unplanned same ootd! Denim day)

For each new morning with its light,

 For rest and shelter of the night, 

For health and food, 

For love and friends,

 For everything Thy goodness sends.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Attempting to start writing a blog again, and I was inspired by a few of my friends to open one! So I must say, life has been good, if not great! Prior to going poly, I was afraid of certain things. Things such as: can I find friends, will I be able to fit in, what if my clothes aren't good enough & MORE.. But now that we're already into 6 weeks of poly (YES 6 WEEKS ALREADY & TIME IS FLYING LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS), I am super ultra thankful that my anxieties and worries have been put to ease because of God.True, FMS students have truckloads of assignments and everything seems to be graded (pretty sure the same goes for other courses and schools). But being a FMS student has helped me open my eyes to many new and interesting 'revelations' in that sense. I have learnt quite a fair bit of things and surprisingly, it interests me! Work aside, I truly thank God for placing Christian friends in my life, poly friends who are Christians and are able to understand my perspectives and views on issues. When I share with these friends testimonies (be it personal or from other people) and songs for worship, I feel hyped up! It's like I'm energised just talking about God and I think this is another surprising thing for me because it makes me want to also know more about God through my friends!

I guess as time goes along, you'll get to know more about me... But until then, stay safe and bye bye (:
