cldnt sleep much last night coz all 3 dogs came to "ka chiao" me at midnight!ken ken and ET tried to squeeze beside me and i didnt dare to move much, kinda scared i might flatten them.haha.and pepper kept me awake almost for 3 hours by moving up and down the room and scratching herself and tryin to jump onto germaine's bed but FAILED!haha.but the feeling was really nice having a warm furry thing snuggle up beside u.i love them!!=)

had a good Dim Sum breakfast at tampines with germz and it was really good!cant wait to go back there again and eat!haha.went for church service and had children cell.

ever wondered how things dont appear the way you think it does=)

wahh!just finished a mind boggling paper on social work in health settings.it one crazy module.dont even take that!i cant believe i cried while reading the different case studies last night. all the stories of people dying with illnesses and having to cope with grief and worse, all the case studies of domestic violence. how this particular man sexually abused his wife in the most mean and disgusting ways you could not imagine. i was full of rage after reading it. and wanted to "kill" every man around me.hahaha.but dont worry, i wont murder. but its just so horrible to even read of such stories. what a world we live in. and that gives me even more motivation to be a social worker and help people as much as i can!

haha.for the very first time, i actually had to carry a backpack to contain the numerous readings i have for this module. its open book=pand i really begin to detest open book exams!hahaha.so much to write but yet so little time. i felt like i was doing a big big time plagarising of all my lecture notes for my essays la!die man


this is the horrible amount of books i brought into for the exam.but guess what!!i used like 1/4 only?ahaha.i ended up summarising alot of my answers due to lack of time=(

i was really relieved when the exam was over and im sure everyone else was.ha.we all agreed it was too much to write for 2 hours only!!!

shermaine,hayarti,cara and keshin fooled me big time after the paper!shermaine first told me we only got a C+ for our SW2105 project. when i heard it, my heart sank coz i thought we put in quite a bit of effort.i was really disappointed and was worrying over how much effort i had to put in for the written paper nxt mon.they passed me the comments page to read, and as i was reading, the remarks seemed really good and genuine. my tutor even wrote excellent and great and as i flipped behind to continue reading.i thought to myself "die man, the front comments so good, behind sure die". but as i continued reading, each comment proved to be even better, there were certainly alot of praises. and then i looked at the bottom of the page. circled was an A+!!!i screamed!and i immediately teared. the girls were all giggling away, and then i knew.I HAD BEEN TRICKED~grrrr.ah.cant believe i fell for their trick!they thought the trick would be exposed when i turned the page, but i didnt see the grade till the very end. we got an A+!i hit the roof. i think i could have hit it literally if i was indoors.hahaha.im soo happy we got an A+, now looking back at how we did the video presentation, there were certainly sufferings we went through, like the camera memory card being full halfway while recording, or worse, the batt goin flat before we even began filming and i had to run all the way back to my hall to get the charger.grrr.and the countless NGs we made while filming. i think we all grew!haha.in terms of our acting skills. can go audition for Star Search alr=)

oh wells, its 1.40pm now, and i just had lunch which means i need to snooze soon!im out!!!i still have another paper at 1pm 2ml.drats!!!

I THANK GOD FOR THE GOOD GRADE I GOT FOR ONE OF MY PROJECT=)

AMBIVALENCE.....

wooo.havent touched my blog for more than 2 days alr.haha.just had my Bahasa Melayu Language paper today. and it was pretty "susah"(easy).im not sure whether to feel scared coz i find it easy or what.haha.oh wells.i've done my part alr. though something really funny happened today. i was at the last part of my paper today where i reached the qns of having to write a short essay of more than 120 words(sounds easy huh) and i had the choice of 2 topics. and of course, they were all in MELAYU!hha.and the scary part was when i didnt understand both topics. meaning i couldnt read the words at all and nothing registered in my mind!of course i panicked. it was the biggest percentage among all the other sections!

i prayed and decided to try my luck. i raised my hand to get my Cikgu's attention and she came over. then i meekly asked "Cikgu, i really dont understand the question".hahah.and guess what?!?!she just pointed at option 1 and told me to write about "my free time" and pointed at option 2 and told me " my favourite television show".i was like "HWAAA!" like that also can!haha.of course i was super happy coz i can at least write something. for a moment, i thought she only helped me but 10 secs later, i overheard her telling the person behind me the same thing. i was like "chey, i didnt get special treatment".hahha.it was really funny, but Thank God i was thick skinned enough to ask her what the words meant. imagine i didnt.

i had a nightmare today while studying in my room!there were two huge lizards!disgusting ones!one was on my table, another one crawled into one of my paper bag.i almost died!haha.i quickly called leon to save me!haha.but to no avail, but he was really cool!he tried to pick up the lizard.so brave man.but the two lizards are still in my room!!sobs sobs!i absolutely cant stand lizards.gross gross gross!

tomorrows another bigger test for me.sigh.hope i can pass!!!!and its gona rain now.OH PLS DONT RAIN TOMORROW!!!

I THANK GOD FOR BEING GOOD ALL THE TIME!

Praise the Lord!

phew.i am extremely extremely thankful that i can actually blog right now. just half an hour ago, my Laptop HANGED!!! and when i tried to restart, the screen was blue all the way. and i had no choice but to just pull the plug out=(. (bet it hurt my laptop).and i guess it was like a blessing in disguise?i missed my quiet time for the past 2 days, too much net surfing and neglected God as a result. and when my laptop couldnt start, i turned to the BIBLE. now dont get me wrong that i only turn to God when things go wrong, but it was at that moment that i knew only God and God alone could help me. i did a long quiet time with HIM. and boy was it refreshing!was reading something about God being there for us and he doesnt live us ALONE to fight in this world. BUT he has promised the SALVATION. that was when i said the SALVATION prayer again. i have come to realise that even after accepting CHRIST, it is but the beginning of life. BORN AGAIN. time and time again, i have sinned and let GOD down. but i know HIS WORD promises that God will not leave us nor forsake us.

Matt 19:26 " But with God, nothing is impossible". this has been my favourite verse that has kept me going on. and i really thank God for everything he has done. and guess what?after my quiet time, i decided to test my laptop again.

and PRAISE THE LORD!IT managed to start!to all who have had comps crashing down on them before will probably know the horrible feeling that your comp has actually died on you. and i have this encouragement for you!PRAY PRAY PRAY!God does miracles, like he did to my laptop!=)

well, another long day today.ha.had a pretty good swim with regina today.early in the morning at 9am!i cant believe i actually managed to wake up. ha.probably coz reg made me sign the "contract" that if i couldnt wake up on time today, i would owe her a GOOD BREAKFAST!haha.of course i couldnt let that happen. but so sad, Doris, reg and i missed MEGABITES breakfast by prob 5 mins?haha.

studied in my room today instead of the library.was feeling a lil lazy to travel down. and i went for my 1st driving lesson!after like 1 month of break?haha.i was nervous when i started off. but THANK GOD. i didnt stall my engine!!haha.my test is nxt wed. i really do hope i can pass it and not waste any more money.sigh.

had dinner in clementi with the OKR people plus jud,ely and gerry!it was good!haha.and aft dinner, i think a few of us gave up studying and decided to watch some stupid comedy!STEPHEN CHOW!wooo.once again, it was Bertrand's room again.haha.his huge LCD Screen. we had a good laugh watching and it almost didnt feel like the exams were like NEXT WEEK!?!?!?

oh wells, enough said. Another driving session tomorrow.

I THANK GOD THAT MY LAPTOP IS ALRIGHT NOW!

wow wow wow

wow. My title for my 1st blog entry couldnt describe my mood right now. Its been so so long since i did a blog.And if im not wrong, my existing blog is still floating somewhere in cyberspace?

what made me do up a blog at 1.57am in the morning of 19 Nov?i dont know.dont ask me. Call it nostalgia=)i do miss blogging, especially when i blog on my Nus Rockclimbing blog. i suddenly long to own a blog site of my own, where i can pen my thoughts down.

And probably because recently i've been doing my everlong readings of theories and all for Social Workers, it made me realise that "hey, i can actually come up with theories myself (*grins) and i gota find an outlet to pen it all down whenever i come across something interesting.ha.

and also because i've gotten pretty accustomed to handling blogspot with thanks to my Rockclimbing blog.A pro?nah.not yet.soon!haha

Today was a long day for me. woke up late, rushed down to the School library to study, though i stay 5 mins away from the library=)it was a good study sesson once again. and i am really glad for that. though at times the people in the library made me mad with all the feet shuffling up and down and the "loud" whispers. it gets annoying at times. no.i take it back.it is totally annoying!

had a good dinner where i fulfilled my wish!FINISHING A WHOLE MEGA MCSPICY!WOOOO!i did it with the spicyness all the way to my head,eyes and ears!although i finished last, but i did it=)

i watched a good movie tonight, American Beauty. the guy was hot, but the whole story was beautiful!it touched me.really.

TODAY I THANK GOD FOR MY FRIENDS=)
