Muet trials ended.Results not out yet but I guess I did okay.It certainly had been a tiring week for me.I had like less than 4 hours of sleep everyday.It was partly due to preparing for test,and partly due to me enjoy using tv and pc.Haha!Well,I failed my chemistry and physics but miraculously did quite okay for maths 1,not maths 2 thus making my maths an average result.The clock is ticking as STPM comes calling.Argh!I got a few comments made about me by teachers.I guess I got to accept those and worked on my weaknesses.
Speaking of unbelievable stuffs,I actually took part in the Kluang District High School Chinese Debate.For some,if not all of you who don't know,I actually hailed from a government primary school.Therefore my education level in chinese is almost 0.But according to some people,I have the ability to debate,or argue and a pretty good(nasty) mouth and so I became part of the team.I was only a back up though,not a first choice speaker.This experience had really taught me alot more about chinese culture,something I definitely lack of being a Chinese myself.I wasnt so "chinese" Chinese ever since young.Well,STK lost but we did our best.I really enjoyed the process though.From getting a team ready by Friday,meeting up and discussing the points last night to preparing the script this morning we were basically preparing under the pressure of not having enough time.But what we showed was way better than what we had expected as it was above average according to the judges.I mean,only 2 days!
Right now I am very sick,with a really sore throat and cough that doesnt seems to stop.Time to look for Zhou Gong.Still cant believe I took part in Chinese debate?Believe it!

STRESS!!!!!!!!
First curriculum test ended today,with MUET trials beginning tomorrow till Friday.Finally,some breathing space.I havent exactly been revising hard but now that the "stress" is gone,things certainly look better.April is coming,signalling the arrival of the only day where you can joke without paying the price(of course no very extreme jokes!).I've finished nearly almost a quarter of year 2008,another three quarter to walk before my form 6 life ended.How much impact can I leave in my friends' life?
I've heard stories of people disliking me ever sinc young.I always thought that's not much of a big deal.Truth is,it's a very big deal!If one person says one thing,maybe it's bias but if whole loads of them?Perhaps it's time to take a deep breath,slow down your steps and reflect about yourself.I guess I need to start doing that soon.Cheng Yee wrote on his blog,a boy is one who has power and a man is one who can control his.I certainly have been or still in the stage of a boy but a man is what I got to be.
Mouth is a very useful tool.I don't deny the fact that I've sort of been blessed with pretty good language skills and communication skills.Whether or not I've put that to good use is still questionable.However,I am rather sure I've hurt many on the way.It's important to sort out your grudge and all with people before it's too late.So here I want to apologise if I've hurt you,both intentional or unintentionally.Anyways,back to lighter stuffs.
Opps!Nothing light to write about!Haha!Well,we are always told to undo to others what you want others to undo to you.Let's take it a step further like what the Bible says,Do unto others what you want others to do to you.In this way,we are not only avoiding trouble but are actually stopping trouble.Sounds good?
Let's all learn to be man and not boy!
p/s:TZH is extremely sleep therefoer any mistake in the passage is unintentional..

Good Friday..
2008 years ago,a baby was born into this world.30 years later,he was crucified on the cross for crimes he did not commit.Sounds unreal?Sounds familiar?Well,this is a true story about Jesus,son of God who died on the cross for our sins.Today is Good Friday,which is a remebrance of what happened in Jerusalem long long time ago.
I felt grateful and blessed for what Jesus has done,because he totally need not do so.I mean,somebody's else's fault and you are willing to take the rap,even if it cost you your life.Will you do that?I don't think I can or I will.This shows the submission Jesus has for his father,our almight God,our father in heaven.I wouldnt be who am I today had it not been for Jesus's action 2000 years ago.No greater is one who will lay down his life for a friend.Jesus laid down his life for everyone of us.Isnt this like the greatest love of it all?
Yosh was speaking about Martha and Mary during YF and I did not really felt much about the topic besides how we should build a relationship.It was while worshipping earlier that it struck me.I have been so indulged in so-called serving in yf and church by doing PA,projection and some other running around stuffs.I left a loophole in my own walk;I did not spend enough time with God.I was just like Martha,preparing and working so hard,thinking that is what God wanted but I missed out on the most important aspect.I am not like Mary,not listening to what God has to say to me.
When things go wrong,I would start asking why.But I forgot the most essential thing,which is to be thankful and have faith.I was not selected for the school basketball team.Agony and pain was what I felt right at the beginning,but I have decided to accept and respect the team's decision and from how they played today,I think I have made a right choice.Growing up is really a painful yet necessary process.Aih~
Anyways,Easter is this Sunday.Bunnies anyone?

Happiness..Faithfulness..
Well,tomorrow school resumes and test is coming in two weeks time.Unfinished homeworks left me with little time to prepare for the test.Blame myself for slacking too much.Argh!Hm,this short holidays will end in another 2 hours time.I've been looking forward to holidays where I can just sleep,rest and play!This is due to the SPM break that I've got.Couldnt overcome the enjoy syndrome yet.Haha.
Ryan will be leaving for Singapore next Wednesday while Mun will be going for NS on the same day too,making it a rather emotional week for most of us.Ryan led worship in both yf and church,stressing on God's faithfulness on both ocassions.It struck my mind that what Ryan said was very true,isnt it?In times of need,who do we look for?God of course but when things are bad,who do we curse?God too.This goes to show no matter what we do,God is still with us.
Many a times,we failed and we struggled but somehow we managed to pull through.Ever wonder why?I guess God's grace is the answer.God's faithfulness and love is just like our parents' where He will never ever give up on us.It's only we who choose to give up on Him.We never know what lies ahead and what tomorrow will brings,but if we commit and surrender to God,i believe he will guide us through.:)
Someones once said,without unhappiness we will not know what happiness is.It's rather true isnt it?In our search for happiness we always end up being frustrated and drained out.The book of Ecclesiastes wrote about how Solomon try to search for happiness but ended up being more unhappy and tired,until he acknowledged that God is the true source of happiness.It's like chasing after the wind,a never-ending race with no results if we try to pursue happiness on our own.
Life is all about being contented,isnt it?The world is certainly more beautiful when we are being content..:)

Standing In The Gap...
Hola everyone!I have just come back from a 4 days trip in Malacca.I felt so rejuvenated after this short break.I left for Malacca on Friday afternoon,following Jit's car to attend a concert held in Equatorial Hotel.The concert was superb.What's more amazing is it was organised by youth and several Christian teachers in Malacca.Their performance?Simply amazing!They totally just swept us off our feet with their songs!By the way,I went to the concert with Ryan,Tien Hui,Pekying and Priscilla.Jit brought us to eat Malacca's famous Baba Laksa and Cendol too.I tell you,Malacca is really a food haven,and they are not costly!
Well,next up was the camp held at El Sanctuary.I missed that place,especially the food.The environment is quiet and the air is so refreshing.Getting away from urban life once in awhile is not such a bad idea after all.Tien,Pekying and Pris did a great job organising the camp and the activities.Kudos to Cheng Yee too for being a good camp commandant.For those who don't know,EL Sanctuary is located at a place for Bukit Hantu.Cool,rite?We did the night trail too.I was the tail of the group,meaning I was the last guy in line,with over 50 people in front of me.Scary..woo~~
I wished to share what I learnt in the camp but just to keep you all visiting this blogsite,I will do it next time with pictures.Excited?Stay tune...
