Still not there yet

Ok fine. Theres a huge gap i left here and yes i know its been awhile since i updated this. well its not my fault (well not entirely). i just went for a grp study today with a couple of friends and well i enjoyed it though 1/3 of the time is spent talking rubbish. (cmon, whats a grp study without a little chit chat?) and now back at home im left to slog out geography and try to understand why we have to learn how oil palms are cultivated. (its not like i want to become a gardener but its in the book anyway...it should be in the book for gardening courses) sometimes i just wish i can become a piece of mud and just sit on the floor and dont do anything... but then again, life will be dull without all these books and people (im referring to my friends) well my common test start tmr and yes im quite prepared (with the exception of english & chinese, the 2 subjects that can never be prepared for). haha and my bro is gonna plan more grp studies! better tell amanda and yun feng soon...

Time really flies

Ok... time to fill in the huge blank i left here for so long!
First of all, my so called buddy search has been called off (as expected) well, mainly cos i was too busy to go round asking people if they want to study. lol. But, it is good to solo every now and then... (i mean, you can't always be too dependant on everyone right?)I really hope I'll grow up soon.......
Next, I have just made a dicovery a few days ago....... THE THEOLO TIME TABLE IS OUT! XD (its on the TJC website)
Yes, the theolo I have been waiting for for almost a year (an impatience spurred by the wonderful tales of theolo my big bro told me last year... shame on him for making me sooo excited & impatient) has finally shown its first sign of arrival! Yes, time really flies. I still remember during January, I was excited and began (a very slow) countdown to theolo and bible sem. I was quite sad at first, cos theolo seemed so far away back then (it still is now though... but closer at least).
When the news of the time table reached me, I then realised how fast time has passed over the past 7 months (C'mon, 7 months is a long time) And my first reaction to the news was "WHAT?! REALLY?! WOOOHOOO!!!!!!" and yeah chaos ensued... was too happy... gonna start another countdown soon! Who wants to join me?
Sigh... And the sign of theolo arriving means my exams are coming soon too. oh well, we gotta taste the bitter first before enjoying the sweet right?
I really thank God to be able to have come this far (well 14 years is a lot more than 7 months...) and taking care of me, and to also experience the joy of learning about Him (in Bible Sem, and Theolo soon to come!)
Here's a few closing verses to help us all:
(Philip 4:6-7) - Be anxoius for nothing, 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 minds through Christ Jesus.
(Heb 4:14-16) - Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son Of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
(Ps 118:6) - "The Lord is my helper, I will not fear. What can man do to me?"

Mugging anyone?

ah.... its hard to believe that half a year has passed just like that and Im now onto a new semester. new subjects (physics, geog, music... im only saying they're new cos i studied chem, bio, art & history last semester), new teachers and new situations that friends, homework and studies put you in. (lol this is beginning to sound like a first day @ sch post). well, this semester will pass by as quickly as the previous one. but this semester is gonna be a VERY busy one. i have a total of only 2 1/2 months (i think, but its about there lah) to rush through the remaining syllabus and study for them too. therefore....

Its Time To Start Mugging Big Time!

now this will be (sadly) a hard task for me, for i am far too used to being a crammer and yes that has led to the deprovement of certain subjects. So I'm now sourcing for good study buddies! I really can't study alone. i either get too bored or too distracted by my surroundings (a.k.a my desktop, tablet, dog, brother, snacks and other hoo-ha you find in the house), so i need people to study with me! it keeps me in check, for when i see everyone else studying i get very paiseh & will force myself to study too =D so my sourcing will start soon, probably focusing around people in church (well, i have friends there that have been with me for about 14 years!). this may sound a bit CCA selection-ish (or maybe im just a little too serious about this), but those who live near me or have free time after youth service, or are able to really concentrate (and not get distracted like me or by my rubbish-talk) are welcome to study with me at any place! Hopefully i'll get a response, becos i usually don't or can't get one. T.T I'll start by asking the JY people, then maybe i'll ask some Upper Pri or IY ones along. but im not that optimistic and im not expecting more than 2 responses..... sad isn't it? oh well. there are times whr you just have to solo things anyway.
