Anyway, here are the photos. Some are really retarded. But oh well. Might as well have fun right?

So enjoy..

I am supposed to be learning how to counter my fears, hence that stupid bird is on my head. YES I'M TERRIFIED OF BIRDS!!

Joy, Tiffany and Monica
why can't anyone understand I don't like birds?
Finally got rid of the bird!
I was trying to take photo with Priscilla eating. she had food all over her face
princess monica is sad that rui jun is stoning at her food and not smiling ( I look like some young kid throwing a tantrum. gosh!)
princess monica is sad that tiffany puts eating before her

When I finally get to take a photo with rui jun, I had to close my eyes! What is Joanne doing behind us? I think Tiffany was confused between happy and sad. haha
I have no idea what Joanne is doing behind us
the school can actually look quite scary. (ok it looked scarier in the camera)

Yeah today was SO SO FUN! I love today!
Tomorrow is teachers' day. and since I had no time to do anything. I have decided to just give them something next time. Too bad! Maybe I won't even give. But it makes me feel so so weird!

Grade 8 Piano Exam Results

Oh great!

I worked so so hard for the stupid piano exam, which I know I messed up. But come on, A PASS? I should recieve a bit more credit! Gosh!

Ok, I knew I shouldn't have been expecting a distinction because of my hands slipping when I played the scales. But shouldn't my pieces have pulled my marks up? Come to think of it, HOW MUCH WEIGHTAGE DOES THOSE STUPID SCALES CARRY?

SO SAD OK!

Now I don't know if I want to continue taking piano. I don't think I can handle anymore of such disappointments. But then again, I really miss playing it. Oh wait. Maybe I don't..

But that's so not the point. How can like that. I should at least have a pass that's close to a merit. I think I better go get the report from my teacher and read it first before I continue complaining. SIGH!

Note to anyone who is going to take piano exam:
  1. Wipe your hands dry
  2. Wipe the keys dry
  3. Do not panick at all cost
  4. Don't ever give up before, during or even after the exam

Seriously. If not you'll regret it the same way I do.

'Sharing' skills

ok I shall try to keep this short and sweet.

I had mission training today and boy was it the best talk I ever went for. I shall not ramble on it cos then it won't be short and sweet. haha.

So ya. I learn a few skills, tricks and all which I think is super super cool. I shall try it on people.

And the mean sec ones kept laughing at me, when I was trying to 'share'. Ok. At least now they are talking to me. (In case you're wondering. My goal is to talk to everyone. And not be this snobbish girl who keeps to one group of friends.. blah blah blah.)

AND THE GAME IN SUNDAY SCHOOL WAS SO FUN. EXCEPT FOR THE... (well I shall not say.)

Ok. now back to studying. hahaha

To go back in time

You've no idea what I'll do to be able to go back in time.

To be able to ring those precious bells once again. (ESPECIALLY THIS)
To be able to play piano with a purpose.
To be able to plan worship.
To be able to work with younger children.
To be able to use the phone as and when I like.
To be able to bake.
Basically, just to be able to do the things that I love.

Prelims is killing me... Why is it taking so long to be over with???

You've guessed it, now back to studying....

But I shall remain positive. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. haha. I must persevere. I must do well. I can do well. (I just need to give myself a motivational talk if not...)

What A Friend We Have In Jesus

What A Friend We Have In Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and grieves
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer

O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God to prayer

Have we trails and temptations
Is there trouble everywhere
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer


With all the exams and stress and everything going on, we may feel like giving up, feel that there is no one to share our problems with. However, we must remember that Jesus is always there and all you need to do is to pray. Even if you don't, He'll still carry you through.

I guess I also need to make this a mental note. Many a times I always feel like there is no end to this nonsense, all the studies and all. But God is good. He always places this song in my heart and the stress doesn't pile up as much as before. And that is because I know that I can cast my burden unto Him.

Yeah. Actually I'm not very sure of what I'm trying to say. (kinda in a delirious state) But yeah. Just read through the lyrics. It kinda speaks for itself.
