E-mail

Just completed my very first test in NUS! The 100 MCQs. It went quite well IMO. Not too sure how well I'll do but I'm just leaving it all to God. It was a pretty fun paper, but a little tricky as well... Quite confident of 70% of the answers that I gave, so hoping it'll translate to a good score. =) A little bit of the stress of uni is starting to get to me, especially with my psych and stat modules, because if I don't get above a certain score (B-) I won't get to major in psych. I've still got a backup plan, but I think I won't need to rely on it, I hope. Also... My uni grades may affect my future in a lot more ways than I initially thought. But we'll see. God's plan is always for the best! Done with all 153 episodes of Dragonball, now proceeding with Dragonball Z, which has a lot more episodes... It might take me quite some time, so don't think I'll be embarking on any other animes anytime soon. Oh, also my hotmail seems like its out of com

Spark

Taken from Rick Christian's The One Year Alive Devotions For Students, dated Feb 19th. SPARK I know that some people laugh at my idealism-- At my effort to be a "light of the world" At my eager, though often meager, attempt to Shine a ray of brightness into an otherwise Dark, dank world. There are times when I understand why people laugh and ridicule. I mean, how dumb can I possibly be To think my life really matters amid Almost eight billion other people on this cinder speck of a planet In this distant corner of the spinning, reeling universe. Dear God, sometimes my light seems no brighter Than the lambent glow of a single lightning bug On a very cold, black night-- Barely a flicker, just a quick spark Amid darkness deeper than the shade of a shadow. Yet a spark, just a solitary spark is all it takes To get a bonfire flashing and flaming, burning and blazing. S

Need For Speed

And so I've stayed off MSN and blogging for about a week already... So for today I'm back online! Today was a really good day. Had a 4 hour break which I did not how to deal with, but as usual God was good. I made 2 new friends during psych tutorial, Jamie and Kah Kay, and since all of us were supposed to have a long day from 8am to 8pm, we accompanied each other till our next tutorials came. Also, I managed to meet Ben my jap lecture friend right before and after my psych lecture and we decided to go back together. Having company really helps when you're feeling tired, and I'm glad God knew exactly what I needed to keep me through the day. Sherine popped up a few times as well. =D Yesterday was my first driving experience exceeding 100km/h. Went up to 120km/h on the expressways whilst driving to fetch Darren from the airport after his Korea trip. All the adrenaline went to my head and I got quite high on driving. Nevertheless we made it there and back safely despite th

A Series Of Fortunate Events

And so its September. Time has been passing pretty quick. I'm a full month into studying already, yet its only felt like a couple of days? I suppose its the army time syndrome; after a whole 2 years of being in a camp a month feels like a few days. Completed my very first assignment in uni, and a little confused at how well I handled it. Friends everywhere are complaining about their assignments, and I found mine too simple. Perhaps its the courses I'm taking that are not so difficult, and perhaps like army training the courses I've taken are progressive in nature? Anyways, I thank God for this. When I see everyone else struggling (or at least claiming to struggle), I can't believe how blessed I am. Another series of fortunate events include saturday's trip to church. As everyone probably knows the train service between Jurong East and Clementi has been stopped for this weekend, and at 2:15pm I found myself making my way to the shuttle buses to Clementi from Jurong
