Today finally got proper lessons, just realised how much I missed lessons. Hmm, is that weird? o.O Well, who cares, too much slacking time liao in school, not used to rot in school, felt so unproductive.
Lala~ Felt so much better then yesterday. Not much today, quite sian but then got lessons la, not so bad. Eh, why am I circling around 'lessons' today??? I must be mad, a normal student usually don't think so much about their studies or rather lessons, right? Crappy, haha. Gonna go download Parfait Tic. Tata~

So sad today. Dun want to take about SA's orientation. It's fun and all but if you felt left out then that's pretty much a closed case. And my feelings are exactly as described in "Mood" Found out almost all of the people in my CG (Civics Group) preferred their classmates from their previous CG or OG even. We screamed and shouted for all the cheers in yesterday's and today's games but then the divided feelings are still there. The entire CG also only two new 2nd intakers when the entire school has like 40 - 50 % of the whole population who are 2nd intakers? What the ****?!?! Haiz..
Finally broke down during the disco. Lost my only friend when dancing, we were separated and in the end she found another friend to find company with. The feeling gauge went even lower when the mass dance was on. Couldn't participate as I didn't have a partner. All the rest of the CG was distributed all around the hall. Dunno where the heck they are. Finally located 2 of the ponners, hung around them but they left (for the toilet but I didn't know). Broke down during then and there in the hall. Not a flood yet, just a trickle. Went to the toilet, was surprised to see the two there. Went to the cubicle then my eyes started to tear even more. Quickly went back to hall to hide from them, I'm not used to expressing my emotions to people, even close friends. Or maybe, just not tears, felt like an idiot if I was babbling to them although some people may disagree. Could not take it any more when I went back to the hall. Went back to toilet and found the two of them, Elizabeth and Amanda. Told them how I felt. Was lonely and couldn't click. Everyone has their own clique.. Blah Blah.. Elizabeth said something that made alot of sense. In the first orientation, everyone didn't know anyone, so they were desperate to find friends. Close friendships were thus built and enjoyed. When the 2nd intake comes in along with the 2nd orientation, the cohort was not as eager to make or find new friends as they already have their own circle of friends. So unless majority of your classmates are 2nd intakers, then I would think there's this problem of fitting in into their knits of friendships. Chelsea was right behind, didn't realised. She comforted me. :) Didn't know she has this in her, but then I've never really known her and there's been alot of bad rumors about her. And Nicholas and her are still going strong. Nick's normally a good character judge, then must be something in her that he really really likes. Maybe I should try to get to know her too?
Yup, finally calmed myself down and went back home, evading some of my classmates' questions about what's wrong. On the way home, was still feeling blue. Even as I am typing this, bluey feelings still there. Sigh, Yi Hui, is this what you are feeling all along? Or maybe better than this? Oh heck, tomorrow is a better day and all is in the Lord's hands. Maybe the lack of friends is due to my shyness? or inability to find an intelligent topic to have a conversation going on? I seriously lacked in people skills. Need to participate more in conversations, but to me, I felt that it's rude to just add in a comment or two when they are way into the conversation. Or maybe that's the way to be? Then also, they talked about things that I'm not interested in or have zero knowledge in it. Ex: their ex OG or CG. How are we gonna be a class if they still preferred their own ones? All of that signs of unity are just for shows. Sigh..
*Takes a deep breath* Oh well, all this things take time, as I had said about fitting into NJ 04S23. God and time are all I need to overcome this obstacle. Pray for me ok people? Believe in the power of prayer. Which reminds me to remember to pray for Nicholas whether him being in the school's basketball team is in the plans the Lord has for him.
Alrighty, I've gotta go. So tired from all that sniffling and sobbing. Need to sleep.

A little note to add: I danced the NJ mass dance with Pradeep today! *High five man* =D u were great!
-10:21 pm
Yup, finally got my ass on the chair and my fingers to fly over the keyboard to type this super long entry, though I hope it's gonna be a long one. Ok, this is the plan, a few paragraphs of what happened on saturday, a few paragraphs of what happened today. *looks around* Sounds good? Yeah~!
Saturday - slacked the morning through though I wanted to sit down and do a bit of reading, but never got to do that. Went down to SA to buy uniform, thought must wear uniform, so wore ZH's. Turned out almost everyone wore their home clothes. -_-;; It was a long queue from the Student Centre (SC), all were girls which is like duh.. Because that was the time allocated for us to buy uniforms~ *whacks myself* Anyway, it wasn't a long wait, about half an hour to 45 mins? Yupz, not that bad, 'cause the co-op (the CCA in charge of selling the uniform, the CCA is something like an enterprise club, where they will sell things like uniforms, stationarys, etc etc.). So I got my uniform, went to change into it, thought that size 36 shirt looks quite ok on me, but apparently, a girl who is slightly bigger in size said that 36 was too large for her. So by simple logic, 36 is too big for me too. And I had to exchange my PE shorts for a size smaller. Sigh.. Spent nearly a hundred bucks on my uniform. =P 2 sets of uniform, 1 tie, 2 sets of PE attire, 1 collar pin - turned out no need to buy 'cause the tie has a school crest, redundent to have a collar pin. *shakes head*
Rushed back home to bath and changed. Luckily Dad drove me to ZH - they were having a funfair/carnival. Quite successful from the size of crowd it drew in when it's like 2,3 in the afternoon? And they ended like 4? Or maybe this is the usual? Met up with lotsa people hehs, so happy~! =D Walked around in the canteen, but they have very little foodstalls and drinks stalls. Why arh? Is it because some of the classes are in-charged of games? Heard that there was a haunted house, Sharon and Meiling went in for the thrill of it, causing Xiaoyun to accompany Alvin Tan to walk around which I think she enjoys also. =)
After the funfair, ZH 4E6'03 went out to eat. However, not many turned out. ='( Oh well, we were never a united class although most of us are in good terms. We tended to have our own cliques, inside the class or outside the class. Yupz, anyway, we went to some Indonesia resturant althought the inital plan was to go Marina Bay to eat steamboat, but because Hafiz can't eat it, (religious matters?) so we changed to Clark Quay. Wah, that place damn ex lo, but then as they said, once in a while la, not that bad lo. Besides the food there also quite nice la. So good good. =) After dinner, we went to Clark Quay to walked around and reached a place where there is a lot of steps that lead down to the river + alot of couples. ;) Sat with a couple of my friends, namely Shuzi :D and Victor. Talked, talked until 8 sthg and she had to leave. :'( Victor went back with her too. Haiz, so I went to find Kian Hong (our ex-monitor) for company. Hehs. The guys were talking about something that I couldn't catch. Then they wanted to go walked walked, at first to somewhere near but in the end, they decided to go to Fullerton Hotel. But before that, they were talking about walking to the Parliment House, where, in the future, they will be. Erm, let's see, Khee Siong is the PM, Qi Yuan's Defence, Kendrick's Environment, Yong Chuen's Finance, Hafiz's Foreign Affairs, Chun Hong's ?? He didn't want Home Affairs. Can't remember what is his position. LOL. Anyway, I don't think anyone of them reads this so, just don't tell to any of them hor, whoever who knows them. :D Yah, so we walked to Fullerton via all the clubs/pubs and quaint resturants along Clark Quay. It's really an eye-opener. 'Cause I've never been to this part of Clark Quay before and, woah.. Haha, apparently my monitor looks quite old as all the people came to "hook" him up, asking him to come in and all. Haha.. Along the way, the guys sniggered at alot of things, you have to search for what they are looking and then
try , really try (sometimes I really can't fathom their thoughts) to think in their manner, then maybe I'll get their jokes.
Reached Fullerton, went to the ladies and the guys to the gents to wash up and explore. It seemed that one of them went to check out every cubicle or sthg like dat and made the cleaner to laugh at them. But you can't fault them for this seemingly childish behaviour. In our entire lives, the chances of entering such classy, posh hotel, let alone their toilets is like once in a million times? Might as well make full use of it. As for me, I was slightly more discreet. I didn't check out every cubicle. But den hor, their glasswares or table tops that kind of things right, looked so damn fragile and delicate, it makes you so afraid to touch them. But that's for me la. Checked out the computer provided by the hotel, the guys went into some Man U site. -_-;; After that, we went somewhere.. Can't remember where we went, but it was on the 8th floor. Then we went to the roof garden. Disappointed by it. Thought it was some greenhouse of some sort, turned to be a big space with some glass-topped tables and some green plants, but can look down to the first floor. However, it also showed that the rooms has an outer balcony as well as a inner balcony - which has the first floor with its events as their view. The guys also noticed a dinner tray outside the room, think that they wanted to kope some food or just go kaypoh, it seemed that the food was untouched and was supposed for the occupant. They rushed off like mad. Haha.. Then we went to the swimming pool. Stayed there for awhile, though there wasn't any lonely girl swimming. Bet that they were quite disappointed. Hehs. Found out that one cup of hot chocolate cost $9~!!!! Milo - $8!!! Wah, I might as well go back and make one for myself. It's free. Left the hotel, and walked towards Raffles' Place MRT station. They actually wanted to try entering the UOB(?) Building (the super tall tall building, with a triangle top (?) grey in colour?) anyway, yah, didn't make it, guard told them to leave. I was hanging outside, too afraid to step in. Walked, walked again, found the OUB sign. Hehe. Tooked photos. =D Hope they remember to send to me. Was a pretty slient trip back home. Everyone was tired as all had activities in the morning. =P Yupz, that was pretty much of the guys' idea of fun. Go find places to explore, especially buildings. Oh yah! We found the Governor's Suite in Fullerton, it didn't occupied the entire floor, but it at least occupied one whole section of the building, no surronding neighbours if I'm not wrong.
Speaking of tired, I'm feeling tired too. Been blogging for about an hour. Can't continue with this length as it will surely stretched to another hour. And I'm damn tired from today. So, shall elaborate on SA's orientation tomorrow. Went back to NJ today for their dance night, the number was significantly smaller than first orientation. =P But met some of 04S23ers~! ARGH~!!! So happy!!! There were tears in my eyes when I saw them. ='D Yupz yupz, we went to KAP as usual, had a medium packet of fries as we all talked. It appeared that their OG for today was temporary, think they gonna have a new class next week, hope they will still be together. =D. PAE 04S23 rocks man~!
Haiz, gotta go liao, my fingers are quite tired from all the typing. Till tml guys, if I'm still up for typing tomorrow. =) Nitex~

The appealed results came today, as expected, I am staying in SA. Oh well it's alright, since I'll still have to make new friends as our OG is split into different classes (according to our combis) Yupz, going tomorrow to buy the uniform. Hehe, my father is driving me there to get it, so I wouldn't have to spend my time travelling to and fro and be late for my appointment with Sharon at the ZHSS funfair. ^_^\/
And to all those who had prayed for my appeal, a big thank you to all of you. *hugs* Hehe, guess that's where I'm supposed to be after all. =) Hey Jun Zhan, I think SA's uniform is better than AC's lo, haha, it may sound biased but it's true. But it's my opinion la, you can take a look for yourself if given the chance. Hehs..
Today was a pretty fun day. Was a mini orientation that comprised of the learning of the school song - still think NJ has a better school song. * Building a family~ To answer a nation's calling....* Haha. Anyway, yah, then we have a corrective class in the National Anthem, they teached once again, the correct prounciation of the words in the song. Had a crash course in the history of the St Andrew's school - 140+ yrs of history. Woah.. But the JC was build only in 1978. Yups.. We are moving to the St Andrew's Village in 2006 =( We won't get to use the facilities. But we'll get to get our results there. So at least still have the chance to go see see. Hehe.. The St Andrew's Village will have all its educational insituitions located there. The junior school, the secondary school as well as the JC. Imagine the number of boys there will be.. *bug eyes* Haha, but I'm not boy crazy neither am I going to go after boys younger than me. So it's just purely for the feasting of the eyes. XD
Hmm, going to bible study later. Haiz, it's all the way in Sembawang =P so tiring. So gotta go liao pple, till next blog. =)

Today was a boring day, was released at about 1.20pm. First half of the day was spent talking about EQ and how it can be acquired blah blah.. Den after the break, we were given instructions on how to wear the uniform and to make a presentable knot for the tie. LOL. Anyways, for the SA girl uniform, the blouse can be tucked out~! =D Provided that the shirt ends are stuffed with elastic bands, folded slightly and then voila! It will look as though it's tucked in the skirt. Hehe. Good right? =D
Took the wrong bus today. Went to Clementi by 166 =P Thought I was going to the right direction, turned out that I should have taken the other one. Haha, driver was pretty shocked to see me when I came down from the second deck. Had to walk a long way to reach the terminal to prevent myself from getting a fine. =P I wondered why I am so sleepy nowadays. I always sleep around that time ie 11++, hmm, maybe it's 'cause I have to wake up earlier. But by 15 minutes, it seemed to make a whole lot of difference. But it's ok, I can catch a few winks on the bus ride to school. XD
Chose the subject combi of Chemistry, Biology, Maths and Economics. Bleh, was thinking of choosing Lit, but the teachers don't seemed interesting enough, and initially thought there was no such combi offered in SA. Econs... =PpP Now have a lot of things to catch up, and I have no notes! Oh well, it will be ready by tomorrow. Hehe, hope can do some readings over the weekend. Econs, econs, was never really interested in the subject. Who cares about macroeconomy or inflation or deflation?!? I mean some people do but to me, somehow they are greek to me. Now I have to learn "Greek". Maybe I should have taken 3 As? However scholarship will be hard to attain, if that's possible at all in the first place. Gamble the chance or bo2 la.. Who knows I have a flair in Economics. Hehs.
Hey, Hui Ghee, didn't really like the image when I saw it the first time, looks sinster does it? Hehs, but it's cool in a certain way don't you think? Maybe Jo will like it, with all the vampire-like feeling of the picture. =) Oh yah, anyone knows why are there dark lines in between the pictures? Didn't change the measurements given by the creator. * scratches head * Help anyone~!

The stupid computer hanged when my brother was using it, then the download of Full Metal Alchemist was halted. And when I reopened to continue with the download, it only contained 19% of the file. Blast it~! It's supposed to have 34%.. Haiz.. Nvm, at least it's 34% now.
Changed the layout. =D featuring two of a few of my favourite bishis (bishonen - Pretty boys in jap) Dark and Daisuke. ^_^ Liked my previous layout but something about the yellow colour bugged me. I prefer dark colours of any shade but definitely not yellow. Yellow bugs me. =P Hmm.. I wonder why, some long forgotten phobia for it? Or just a general distaste for it? Arh.. who cares. Hehes.
Hey hey Maria, I don't mind meeting up with you and Ellyn anytime in J8 as long as you guys are not released too late but if I'm staying in SA, then these few weeks don't think can make it lo. Will have make up lessons until 5 something the earliest. =( After everything is settled liao then we meet up okok? Call up some more people also. The more the merrier. =)
American Idol is on for about 22 minutes as I'm typing and Fantasia (sp?) is singing now. Not bad sia. Strong voice.

Just came out of the shower. =D Feeling quite good. But on the low note, AJ hasn't called. ='( Maybe they called in the morning, and no one was at home to picked up the phone.. Haiz. Hope they will have the sense to call at night, but then who knows that my appeal wasn't successful. At the rate people are appealing in and out of all the JCs in Singapore, who can guess.. Oh well, just keep optimistic until Friday ( the latest le ) ba. If they really haven't call by then, then I shall buy the SA uniform on saturday. Sad sad..
Let's not dwell on unhappy matters. Anyway, at least life in SA is more tolerable now. I'm mixing around with my OG mates but they still have their own groups of friends. Though I know that Yukina and Sook don't mind me hanging around but it's still weird la, I'm not interacting with alot of their friends although they are some who I've really become friends with. Like Natasha, Jasmine.
All will be for the best as God knows the best for me.
Apparently my OG got into the intra NE chant competition. Everyone was moaning and groaning why did they perform so well yesterday. >_< Haha, and because of that, we had to stay back today to do the chant a final time to select the best team to perform in the inter-JC chant competition. However, everyone ponned it. Someone said that we may get into trouble for it as the principal put emphasis on this kind of things, and so punishment maybe meted out. =P See tomorrow how lo..
Btw, Mom called AJ to ask about the posting, they said that they will call on Friday if the appeal is successful. ....

Had an early day today. SA let us off at 2.10 today. Pretty early sia, first time so early in my JC life.. LOL.. Anyway, today's damn boring la.. All about registration, combi talk and principal's talk. Nothing much. Saw a video about SA, pretty funny la.. Hehe. People there are friendly and they have alot of school spirit, hey people here luurrvvvveeee their school lo, you can't believe the extent. Yah, but then don't really feel belong their leh. Haiz, not even better then NJ, but then I'd been in NJ for 3 months, so it's an unfair comparison. But seriously speaking, SA type of people ain't mine, so maybe that's why. No that I don't like them, but they are mostly the cool cool, yoyo type people you know? Maybe there are some like me la, abit Chinese, abit English speaking slacker-wannabe-but-still-become-mugger type of people, haiz.. NJ has a wide variety of people around, so it's either a whole new culture of our own, or we slid into NJ's. AJ is my comfort zone, all same type of people. Haha but some really very hardworking 1 worz!So there's abit of culture shock in SA for me, I think.. Haiz, I rather be in a boring school but with people I can mix than a happening school with people I can't mixed. =P That's what happened to Sharon. Now dunno what she wanna do also..
And hor, SA very far arh~~~!! Haha, 45 mins bus ride.. >_< Can sleep on the bus le.. One of the good point of SA is that it has a strong christian envt, so maybe it's good for me. Went to their youth morning worship today, worship type is vastly different from my church. Ours are abit more sedate :P Not used to theirs and maybe 'cause my church is a chinese-speaking one, so type of worship is different, I guess. Gonna go submit my appeal form to AJ tomorrow. Results of the appeal will be out on wednesday or thursday. Wish me luck~!

愛一個人，
要了解，也要開解； 要道歉，也要道謝；要認錯，也要改錯；要體貼，也要體諒；
是接受，而不是忍受；是寬容，而不是縱容；是支持，而不是支配；
是慰問，而不是質問；是傾訴，而不是控訴；是難忘，而不是遺忘；

可以浪漫，但不要浪費；可以隨時牽手， 但不要隨便分手。
〝不要輕言放棄！否則對不起自己
1. 遇到你真的愛的人時 要努力爭取和他相伴一生的機會

Just wanna share with you guys this well, for those who can understand chinese that is. Sorry to those who don't. Basically is to cherish whoever you have now and give your best to him/her lo. Something like that. Yupz.. Just what I'm feeling now. SA, SA.. going to SA tml.. Dunno what's in store for me tomorrow.. Hmm, must keep positive, God put me there for a reason. And still putting my luck in appealling to AJ.. Well, you never know what to expect from God too.
Haiz, actually those chinese characters up there quite describe my feelings for him. Should I or should I not, that is the question.. I felt so crushed when the reality of me going to SA and him to another school finally crashed on me. Oh why oh why?? Oookkkaaayyy, being a bit dramatic here. Bleah.. Yah, but really very crushed la.. Haiz... :( Hope we'll still keep in touch no matter what~!
And NJ pple, yupz, going to miss you guys lotsa. Gave me good and fun memories when I was there. Enjoy your time in NJ too and dun be sad if 04S23 don't stay together, at least you guys will still be in the same school right? Yupz yupz, keep in touch okay? Esp Ellyn arh..

Mom's nagging me to go eat lunch. Bleh. Didn't have time to blog 'cause everyone asking everyone where they are going, whether they want to appeal not etc.. Yup, I got posted into Saint Andrew's Junior College. Not disappointed but expected. Anderson was damn borderline, so I am going to appeal. Advantages ---> near, not bad standard, got friends. Disadvantages ----> whole new environment. :P Dun think I'm going to go to NJ to appeal. It's partial 6 lo~! Damn low sia, hardly got chance, besides I think so many people will go back and appeal lo, not only me. How come NJ suddenly so popular arh.. Nanyang also, people are coming out of Anderson to go there. What's with all the N schools man??? Haha..
Haiz, my neck is aching leh.. Didn't sleep well last night. Had dreams about AJ I think, haha, must be quite nervous about the results, though its subconciously. =P
Yea~! New handphone later. Gonna go mass send tomorrow. LOL. And I'm going go meet up with the gang later. Whoo Hoo~ gonna be a fun day =) I hope. Hehe..

Woke up at 11 this morning. Pretty rare for me, though it's like it never happened before. No one ever tagged me, what the heck. Thinking of removing it, save up the loading time. :P Anyway, Wednesday's CIP wasn't that bad, as compared to Tuesday's. Maybe it's because it's only 3 hours. Did alot of cutting there, some small warning letters to inform the borrowers not to tamper with the library's properties. :P There's one librarian there who never smiled. He always looked pissed off, as if someone had burned his favourite shirt.
Haiz, will only get a new handphone on saturday. Bleah.. New handphones need to be charged for at least 10 - 12 hours right? Then that means that I can only use it on Sunday?! But then, no problem la, since no one message me now also. Haha, must be 'cause of all the delays in replying their messages but then, I don't really message people for nothing, (not like Ying Shing) except fancy messages when I am feeling up to it. Speaking of Ying Shing, apparently her sent messages shot to 1200 - 1500? And she has got 900 free? Whoa... She's da best man. I'm pretty amazed by people who can actually msg until over thousand plus lo, my record was only 750+, though for my plan was way too much. My mom can't really tolerate paying for our extras, as in when we "over charged" our plans and if we want to buy other brands of handphone, she will show her dislike for it. :P She's a supporter for Nokia as well as Singtel... What's wrong with the other companies? I don't know. :P
Lala~ I cut my hair yesterday. Looked pretty weird and old now, with my fringe short. It's covering my sight too.. Irritating. But it has to be this way 'cause all along (for 7 years.. Remembered it was in Primary 4 that I decided to grow my fringe long) my fringe had being pulled behind to be tied up, so there's this parting there which refuses to cover up. So now, I have to wait for 1 - 2 weeks before cutting it short. Hope I don't look sua ku after cutting. Haha.

Okie, went to watch "Big Fish" yesterday under recommendations from lotsa people as well as my own. Lol. Yep, great show as Maria had said. However, anyone knows the "moral" behind the story. Had a conclusion of my own but don't know if it coincide with the story's. Well, for me, I think, you can experienced many things in life, but how would you retell them? Especially to the ones you love? How you would want your children to know you? Maybe a little pepper and salt to your retelling can bring a relationship closer or break one up as like between Edward and William. One can choose to live his life in one way or the other. Edward chose to live the more exciting one.
I would like to have a father like Edward. At least he will tell me stories about his life. :P Maybe my dad just don't know how to express himself (we aren't very close). Next time if I ever have children, I would try telling them about myself, so that they will know who I am. I love my parents and all, but frankly speaking, I don't think I know them really well if you ask me. Haiz, that's quite sad isn't it? Well, at least (for my dad) we are talking and stuff, just not very in depth. My relationship with my mom isn't that bad, whew.. Or else this is gonna be a dysfunctional family.
Enough sad stuff.
Did CIP in Library@Orchard today. It was SUCKY. Argh.. Worst CIP I ever had and I though flag day was bad ----> just felt embarrassed walking around asking people for money, not very sociable. Shelving books are fine with me, but to do them 6 hrs continuously is torturous. They don't give us break, don't let us talk, just do, do and do. *tears at hair* Never thought I could actually be afraid at the sight of books. *sobx* I'm going to do only 3 hours tomorrow, maybe it will not be as bad as today. 6 hours of shelving is pure hell. No joke. ..... Okie, maybe for some of you guys, it ain't that bad, but for Library@Orchard, it's really.... Bleh..
Hehe, met Kenneth with girlfriend in the library today. Said girlfriend is Felicia. Lovely girl I must say. :) Both look to be serious in their relationship. That' great~! Hehe.
What's with you and your nickname? I don't understand at all. Or maybe it's not for me to understand in the first place... Or maybe it has no hidden connotations at all, it's just me being paranoid. I'm weird. -__- '''

Finally left my bed half an hour ago. Had a weird dream but I loved it. Haha. Must be because of something I did last night, had some queer connection to it. But I really really really like the dream =) Haha, never will experience that kind of feeling in real life. Hope it will come true. LOL. But then the people are kinda mixed up, I had Mr Choo (my sec 4 form teacher) around as well as JC's friends (i can't exactly remember who was around). We were all in some building doing don't know what and then there was some emergency.... Is there some kind of "don't saying your dreams out or else it will not come true" rule? Hmm... Anyway, slept at 1.30am last night. Still feeling some remenants of sleep in me. Hope I don't fall asleep in the movie later. :P

Tried teaching Lye Yeung on how to use mIRC to download manga, but hehe, she didn't have the patience. Oh well, just hope she will continue trying or else she's gonna die of boredom in Australia. Haha.
Sunday. Today's sermon left an impression on me. It's about John the Baptist and Jesus. Hmm, to summarize, basically, John gave a testimonial of Jesus. He gave the analogy of the best man and the groom. It's like John is the best man of the groom who is Jesus. He's there to share his happiness, joy but not to steal the limelight. So, John was there to pave the way for Jesus, to allow Jesus to show His Glory.
"At a wedding attention is obviously focused on the bride and the groom. Thus, we again see John as a model of humility. As we saw earlier (1:19-34) he is completely self-emptied, being defined solely in terms of Jesus. His example of humility is expressed most memorably here:
He must become greater; I must become less (3:30). This word must (dei) signifies the outworking of God's plan (cf. comment on 3:14). John's joy is in fulfilling God's will for his life--a model of Christian discipleship. He raises the question for all who would be disciples of Jesus, Where do we find our joy? It is easy to get distracted by the pleasurable blessings of this life. We should be thankful and receive gratefully God's blessings, but our joy's deepest foundation is God in himself. That he is as Jesus revealed him to be is our joy, as is the fulfilling of his purposes for our own lives (cf. 15:10-11), and we see this joy here in the Baptist."

Yup yup, so maybe one's life is just to help others in achieving greater heights, his/her role is only the best man or the bridemaid of the groom or bride. No use getting jealous or frustrated over it (note to self) as "A man can receive only what is given him from heaven."[John 3:27] and the Lord will reward duly according to his/her abilities. One thing one definitely has to is to do his best and seeks God's approval and to give Glory to His name. There are definitely others points that people have caught from this chapter, but this one left the greatest impact, ie being the lever for others. Well, just read John 3:22-36 up in www.biblegateway.com
Ok, I'm crapping, and I'm blogging for more than an hour.. How can that be. Haiz, was kept distracted by other things. And Pradeep, why did you keep signing in and out??!?! Haha.. I know your nicknames are very special but... Hmm, this year, I have got mostly mangas for my bdae presents. Haha, hey people I know I'm a mangafreak, but still, I will appreciate *slightly* normal presents you know? Haha, but seriously thank you all so much for the presents, I really love them all. And to Paul and Kee Ka, I may have the same thinking as Qiren regarding the present from you 3 but, that doesn't mean you 2 are smarter arh. Haha, just joking. It was only a temporary short circuit you know, one cannot relate a yellow bean bag with a handphone holder/stand whatever you call it. Haha, you know, I think it makes a better pillow than a handphone stand. And rest assured, I won't turn it to a cactus, a yellow one that is.
Paul and Mavis, about your advices about keeping in touch with him, I don't really know whether I should. It's like there are somethings that you guys don't know about. It's really nothing la but you know me, I tend to think too much about it. Well, tell ya about it the next time.
Aik Tat called last night!!!!!!!! Haha, to wish me Happy Birthday. We chatted for like 1.5 hours. SO shiok! Though I'm guilty to say this but I'm glad he's the one who's paying for the bill. Anyway, he's using a prepaid card, so he said it's not that bad. Australia $10 can talk for 8hrs overseas. Dunno true not. Haha. Anyway, yup damn glad he called and listened to him and me crapped. Haha, realised that though my schedule left me with little time to keep in contact with alot of people but he's definitely one of the people I will do my best to keep in touch with. Haiz, definitely missed our times together. Aik Tat.... Come back quickly.. Dun learnt any bad habits arh. Haha. Have fun there also and try to keep your guai lan-ness to a minimal. Lol..
Okie, finally finished blogging. Bye peeps. Nite nite =D

Harry Potter Personality Quiz by
Pirate Monkeys Inc.
Well, quite different from what I get the last time I took. (previously I was a Dumbledore :P) The one complied by Jenn (which I took today) also gave the results of INFP (Remus)/INFJ(Dumbledore). I'm half Remus, half Dumbledore. If that's possible. Lol.. Oh well. Hehe.. Here's more info for INFP people.
Healer/Idealists are abstract in thought and speech, cooperative in striving for their ends, and informative and introverted in their interpersonal relations. Healer present a seemingly tranquil, and noticiably pleasant face to the world, and though to all appearances they might seem reserved, and even shy, on the inside they are anything but reserved, having a capacity for caring not always found in other types. They care deeply-indeed, passionately-about a few special persons or a favorite cause, and their fervent aim is to bring peace and integrity to their loved ones and the world.
Healers have a profound sense of idealism derived from a strong personal morality, and they conceive of the world as an ethical, honorable place. Indeed, to understand Healers, we must understand their idealism as almost boundless and selfless, inspiring them to make extraordinary sacrifices for someone or something they believe in. The Healer is the Prince or Princess of fairytale, the King's Champion or Defender of the Faith, like Sir Galahad or Joan of Arc. Healers are found in only 1 percent of the general population, although, at times, their idealism leaves them feeling even more isolated from the rest of humanity.
Healers seek unity in their lives, unity of body and mind, emotions and intellect, perhaps because they are likely to have a sense of inner division threaded through their lives, which comes from their often unhappy childhood. Healers live a fantasy-filled childhood, which, unfortunately, is discouraged or even punished by many parents. In a practical-minded family, required by their parents to be sociable and industrious in concrete ways, and also given down-to-earth siblings who conform to these parental expectations, Healers come to see themselves as ugly ducklings. Other types usually shrug off parental expectations that do not fit them, but not the Healers. Wishing to please their parents and siblings, but not knowing quite how to do it, they try to hide their differences, believing they are bad to be so fanciful, so unlike their more solid brothers and sisters. They wonder, some of them for the rest of their lives, whether they are OK. They are quite OK, just different from the rest of their family-swans reared in a family of ducks. Even so, to realize and really believe this is not easy for them. Deeply committed to the positive and the good, yet taught to believe there is evil in them, Healers can come to develop a certain fascination with the problem of good and evil, sacred and profane. Tutors are drawn toward purity, but can become engrossed with the profane, continuously on the lookout for the wickedness that lurks within them. Then, when Healers believe thay have yielded to an impure temptation, they may be given to acts of self-sacrifice in atonement. Others seldom detect this inner turmoil, however, for the struggle between good and evil is within the Healer, who does not feel compelled to make the issue public.

Today we had a half day :D Principal was announcing the 'A' Levels' results over the intercom and she gave us the half day off!! Yea~! Hehe. However, it seemed that NJ got into the 5th position, an historic low? Dunno true not..
You are a gravestone shadow. You denote the
dignity and wisdom of history and memory. You
are foreboding and dignified. You value
tradition and memory because your soul is the
essence of those who lived and bled in the
ancient life you represent. You are slowly
fading from existence. Keep your place in this
story of time by consuming the future that you
find so threatening, for someday it will become
what you are: the past.(please rate my quiz cuz
it took me for freaking ever to create)
What Kind of Shadow Are You? (with gorgeous pics) brought to you by Quizilla
Gorgeous pictures? Haha, kinda creepy to me. But there are indeed gorgeous pictures for the other results.
You are from the Medievil time period. If you read
any history book, it'll tell you all about
sickness, disease, poor living conditions, and
death. But if you look into a literature book,
it will show you something more; honor and
chivalry, love and romance, conquest long
journey's for love and family. You're a
hopeless romantic (I remember reading that in
another quiz . . . ). You don't waste time on
Earth because you know that some people don't
have a lot. This is the time period where
people began to relize they could discover and
create something new. You always look to the
future.
Which Era do you belong to? brought to you by Quizilla
You are Victoria of England. You are not afraid of
hard work but still have time for the arts.
You are very open with your emotions but if you
get hurt once you find it hard to get back up
again. You bring peace, ease and prosperity to
the world. As is said of Queen Victoria by
A.J. Balfour, 'She passed away, I believe,
without an enemy in the world, for those who
love not England love her'. Please rate my
quiz.
What famous female ruler are you? (written for the girls) brought to you by Quizilla
Okie, these are alot of quizzes results.. blah. Well, have got nothing to do. Maybe I should have accompanied them to buy the NJ uniform. But then, dun wish to make myself feel envious. Was thinking on the bus on the way back, would I be really happy if I was posted to AJC/SAJC? I think I will miss NJ. Then there's this thing called appeal, which may give me a chance to stay in NJ. But do I really want to stay in NJ?
I couldn't find an answer.
Maybe getting 10 points was a good thing. At least, I wouldn't have to agonise over whether to continue staying in NJ. I dunno, I'm not putting this feeling right.
Hey Ellyn, Jo, Hui Ming, Yi Hui, Maria, PJ and BK, thankew so much for your presents~! :D I love them all. :) And Hui Ghee for the cake. It was delicious :) Yupp yupp, maybe I'll blog tonight. Bye for now :)

New layout, hope it's more pleasing to the eye. Can't do much of the font. Sorry peeps. Haha, kept changing the colour of my tagboard to suit the layout. Finally got this one. Oh yah, Hui Ming, I know how to do the two colour thing in the tagboard just like what Jennifer did liao. :) Can help you with it if you want.
Shubei and Yi Hui are leaving for the Maldives today. So are Bekky, Swee Peng and Lynn. :( But hope they have a wonderful and meaningful time there. That's the most important thing. =) Sincerely wish that they can bring back some good stories and photos back.
Wanna pon GP today, who knows that half the class wanted to. In the end, Jo, Maria and I decided to go. See what good people we are. =D *people throwing rotton apples* Yep, my ego is swelling. Haha.. Anyways, those who ponned came back in the end. Guessed that they weren't too happy about it? At least today's GP lesson wasn't that bad, we get to surf the net. :D The guys were also talking about their Yahoo! group things and apparently there is some poll going on there. Bleh, what's with all this ranking and stuff... Then Josephine and I spent the next 2 hour completing half a page of her self-made manga of the class. 2 hours = half a page. Now I know why manga artists worked full time...
Hmm, actually today was quite a slacker day. It's because it's the end of the term and the teachers are cutting some slack? Had to stay back for Bio corrections though. :P Well, it wasn't that bad. Ellyn and I were so bored that we wrote story, but she was bored by the storyline. Not amusing or weird enough. Haha. It was about a man living by the river. He picked up something from the river while he was swimming one day...... By the end of the lesson, we had the wife crying a flood and the villagers cursing and spitting at her. Kinda weird for me. Haha.
Found out Jaryl has 7 meals a day...!! Breakfast, break, lunch, tea, dinner, supper and midnight snack. Each meal is definitely not a small proportional. I want that guy's metabolism......!!! He's not growing sideways at all...!! Darn.. This is so unfair. Haha...

The Power Of One
One song can spark a moment
One flower can wake the dream
One tree can start a forest
One bird can herald spring
One smile begins a friendship
One handclasp lifts a soul
One star can guide a ship at sea
One word can frame the goal
One vote can change a nation
One sunbeam lights a room
One candle wipes out darkness
One laugh will conquer gloom
One step must start each journey
One word must start each prayer
One hope will raise our spirits
One touch can show you care
One voice can speak with wisdom
One heart can know what's true
One life can make the difference
You see, it's up to you!!

Is Hell Exothermic or Endothermic?
Dr. Schambaugh, of the University of Oklahoma School of Chemical Engineering, Final Exam question for May of 1997. Dr. Schambaugh is known for asking questions such as, "why do airplanes fly?" on his final exams. His one and only final exam question in May 1997 for his Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer II class was: "Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with proof."
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
"First, We postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave.
Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, then you will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant. Two options exist:
If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it? If we accept the quote given to me by Theresa Manyan during Freshman year, "that it will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I still have NOT succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then Option 2 cannot be true...Thus, hell is exothermic."
The student, Tim Graham, got the only A.
Don't know if this is interesting to you guys, but you really have to acknowledge his intelligence as well as crapping skills.
Yea, this entry is superbly long. Saw all of these in the GP classroom today. Jo and I were hanging around in the classroom, before deciding to give the board our attention. Haha. Highly amused/tickled and slightly digusted(? not really disgusted but a feeling more mild. Help anyone?) by the last one.
Has been raining for the whole day. Have a sense of deja vu, anyone remember that week in January which was raining like 24/7? It's pretty cold too. I was charging my handphone by the window, and the rain soaked it? Argh!! There was a mini pool by the ledge. Hope the phone is all right, not any worse than it is now. Wanted to pon Lit lecture with Jo today, but didn't do so cuz the lecturer maybe Ms Teo. Will be highly strange for us to pop down to the tutorial (today's hers) and not the lecture. Turned out to be Ms Champagn. -.- Now we are trying to work up the nerve to pon the double period of GP this week. I wanna to pon one lesson...!! My maiden pon! Jo's too.
I've got this throbbing headache at the left side of my head. Dunno why suddenly got it. Think it's cause of info overload by Bio ba. =( Yea~! no test today, so lucky. Wasn't really prepared for it. But still having it on thursday. Well, it's a sooner or later thing, but at least it's later.
I'm going off to watch Xun Qin Ji le, Channel U's current 9pm HK serial. Heard that it's good. :D And Thankew Pin Jie!!! for the wonderful and lovely bracelet~! I love it~! *hugs*

Celebrated grandmother's birthday today. Hmm, thought we celebrated in February last year? Seemed like there's no fixed date. Oh well, but the dinner was great! Though the food wasn't as good as last year..(we went to the same place.) But it's great being with my extended family~! All my aunts and uncles, my cousins ranging from the age of 35/36 to 3, (my grams had 11 children o.O)two darling nephews, Leonard and Elijah. :D So great chatting with them again. A cousin registered his married earlier this year, and another is getting married in October. :) Got wedding dinner to eat le~!
Okie, it's really late now. Typing quite slowly now, with hopes that I dun wake Mom up with the click-clacks. She's gonna peel me off my skin if she found out I'm still awake and typing away on the computer.

First entry in March.. ;) Finally got to blogging this week. Haha, felt pretty lazy the past few days, don't feel like blogging, seemed like nothing much happened like that, though many I know begged to differ. TGIF!! Thank God it's Friday!! Actually I didn't do much also, just laze around the house, channel-surfed. Basically waiting for Mom to come back with dinner. Had dinner at around 8.30.
Late.
I know, but my usual dinner time is around 8 also, so not much difference anyway. I finally did the minutes for choir. :D *pats myself on the back* procrasinated it for too long le, 2 months? En Wei, our conductor, was so nice about it. Bleah, felt quite guilty. Actually come to think of it, why did I not do it?
Laziness. Again.
Haiz, I really have to change this man.. It's gonna be bad for my future, as well as my efficiency in working, both in church and work. Whoops.. Dad just came home. Dunno why so late. It's either working or....... Haha, no hidden meaning here, just some activities not convenient to put here. Btw, the word "convenient" is imprinted to my mind be'cuz Mr Koh, my former English teacher, made us do our corrections, a paragraph writing, 20 times. It was for oral I think. Still remember that my handwriting got smaller and smaller and the words were all squeezed together. Maybe I shouldn't have thrown it away, can keep as souvenir. ;D
Darn, alot of homework to do.. I have got Lit, GP, Maths, and Bio to do. And there is a Bio test next week, I haven't touch anything yet!! ARGH!!! I think my maths and chem are getting from bad to worse. Sad... :'( Oh well, BUCK UP JANICE!!! Haha, I'm getting hyper.
Yea~! Cindy commented that Takeshi Kashiwabara (my display picture on msn) is a big cutie!! Handsome! Saw him for the first time in a Japanese drama (duh..) "E Zuo Ju Zhi Wen" (literal translation = mischievous kiss) brought by Jiaxin when PSLE was over. We watched the entire show in class lo.. Haha. The show was adapted by a Japanese manga, Itazurana Kiss. It's damn hilarious lo. Both show and manga. :D Anyway, I just fell heads over heels for him at that time. He's just so handsome and "drool-ious" Haha. Wanted to find the vcd but couldn't. Out of print le ba..
Anyway, yah. That's about it. Hehe.. Nitex nitex peeps.
