Youth Mission was one heck fantabulous! An enriching and worthwhile programme.
It was much more interesting compared to last year's. The facilitators were a bunch of great blokes from the mission team in Novena church. They engaged us in some really crazy activities, but we enjoyed every one of it though. The role plays were especially hilarious.
The sharing session by them was really something we could all learn from. It was really heart-warming to see everyone interacting and co-operating with one another during the two days, both the 5.1's together with the 5.2's, actively participating in all the group activities and enthusiastically rushing to answer questions to garner points for our teams.
At the end of it, we had a reflection session on the days since we started of as young innocent sec 1s and the memories we shared together during these years at SAC. I'd say it was very fruitful.
Lesson learnt:
Life has a way of reminding us of our past, good and bad. However, all of it teaches us and helps us mature and reminds us of the inevitable and the things we have to do. To know when to do the right things at the right time. Hopefully in future, when the past revisits, it would leave us with many cherished and treasured memories. For the bad experiences we've encountered, its probably time to do something about it and close the chapter in our lives that have been previously left unwritten.

WOOPEE DOOPEE YIPPY HURRAY! Finally finally! What a relief, prelims are over. Gonna give myself a well-deserved break till sunday before making the last lap for my final hurdle, the dreadful O's. Anyway, girls day out after exams today. Shopped around city and town, hopping from one mall to the other. Legs are feeling drained now. YAY! I manage to get myself some stuff though! :)
Anyway, shall blog about something more relative, something readers could probably ponder about. The topic on friends. You might ask me how far would I go for them. Quite far I would say. Its through small things that you know who your friends really are. Friends who will be there, even when it all falls apart for you.
People have said, I always wear my heart on my sleeves. I don't hide my emotions easily and I am damn bad at pretending to be happy when I'm not. I try my best to be earnest, to be truthful and to go the distance. However, there are times where at many instances, I feel like everything has just gone wrong and there is always someone there to pick me up or someone to forgive me when I've failed.
So if I were to ask you how far you would go for your friends, would you hesitate?

Prelims sucked. Two more papers to go before I get it all over. No hope for me. My days has been exasperating. I guess my brain cells are gonna suffer a thorough burnout after o's. Exam kills in every way if you'd agree with me. I can't even find time to squeeze in a break for myself. Fine, I shall put it all aside for now and blog about other happier stuff instead or I'll sound so depressomundo.
Updates updates
ADAM SCOTT won the Barclays Singapore Open last sunday! WOOPEE! He successfully defended his title. And I tell you, he's a real sizzling lad. Check out his body! WOOOO! One word-gorgeous! Besides, he's an aussie and in my opinion, aussie chaps are way too hot! Ok I must control myself, I get too high when I start talking about him. You know me. haha. He plays good golf and I love his swings. He's ranked six in the world. My uncle got tickets to the Open, and my aunt said Adam Scott has a very nice bod, lots of muscles! haha. I'm waiting for my cousin to send me the pictures and videos he took. I promise myself I will go catch the live action of the Singapore Open next year. I must, cause Scottie will be here again. YAY! Daddy's a golf maniac so he'll accompany me. Mummy plays golf and she likes Scottie too, so she'll definitely come along. haha. Alright, next year, next year. I'll keep patient for now.
Now, Rock Star Supernova. Lukas Rossi won! He's not a bad singer, but I prefer Toby Rand! Toby's got what it takes to be the frontman, both the voice and the looks. He's yet again another aussie! haha.
Oh well, that should be about it for now. Gotta get back down to studying.

footprints in the sand.Whenever I see footprints at a beach, I am always reminded of this poem about a man having a conversation with God. The man asked God why there are only one set of footprints in the sand, especially in times when he needs God the most. God's reply to the man was that He(God) was there all the time. God was carrying the man through his hardest times. The footprints in the sand were God's and not the man.
He, whom we take for granted. He, whom we always forget is always there. I am no saint. Definitely far from a good believer of faith. But I try, and God knows the many times I have fallen and how many times I will keep falling. I had times when I had my doubts about God, but when I see the footprints in the sand, I know He holds my hand. GOD, the one that lives in our hearts. Most of us at least.
