For Your Glory And With Your Strength, And Not My Own
Stayed at Zi's house last night.
I watched Heroes Season 2 episode 1 with him.
Anyway,
We slept at 3am and woke up at 11am today.
So we woke up,
cooked our lunch and ate them.
After that,
we went cycling around seletar base camp
(that's where he lives).
Anyway,
we explored the abandoned areas and took alot of nice pictures.
We came across this massive tree
and it was really MASSIVE.
We then rode to seletar airport and back home after that.
Prepared to go for church and reached yio chu kang station at around 2.10pm.
Waited for Yisin for quite awhile before making our way down to novena.
When we reached there,
pre-service setup was done as we were late.
So during pre-service prayer,
we slit into our accountability group;
Ying Hao, Seah, Zi and me.
We prayed for each other and for service.
It is great having people praying for you.
After that we started worship.
Gospel preaching after and today,
God spoke to me.
Seah told me God told him to tell me this,
"Don't do it for your own glory, but for God's glory."
And today's sermon was about:
The Posture of Paul.
Which talked about how we must be like Paul and adopt a posture of love, total reliance and humility.
Which really spoke to me as i felt i have indeed been trying to go on with my own strength.
Not only that,
but i felt that i also have a very low self-esteem.
Anyway,
someone prayed for me and whoever did that,
i thank you.
We had to setup the chairs after service for the sunday service.
Dinner afterwards and Seah decided to go to Roccovo to buy chicken rice.
I wanted to try their pork and i asked that person,
"Uncle, can i have pork rice?"
Haha.
Too bad no more pork they said.
Pork rice..
Haha.
So went to the foodcourt as usual and joked around.
Tried to trick people into drinking this weird concoction that i made and disguised in a Mcdonald cup.
Dudley, Shawn, Zi, Seah, Seah and Seah was tricked.
Seah got tricked 3 times.
Haha.
Real smart Seah.
Anyway,
after church went to starbucks to study with Leslie, Ying Hao, Keith, Jeremy and Dudley.
Seah went home after awhile.
It was during that time that the Devil attacked me.
I suddenly felt inferior as compared to the rest as some of my church mates have an L1B5 of 10, 15, 17 and 20.
What did i get?
A pathetic 28.
So if im thinking of geting less than 10,
it will be near impossible.
I started questioning myself why am i studying so hard when i know that the outcome will still go against me.
I started feeling emo and all quiet.
Went home at around 11.15pm and caught the second last train to toa payoh.
Took 153 later and i was feeling really down.
I talked to God and He did the most amazing thing.
While on the bus,
i listened to "God Is My Strength" on my handphone,
closed my eyes and God showed me 3 visions.
I teared after that in utter shame..

To God Be The Glory
So i didnt went to school today as i didnt feel like going.
Haha.
Anyway,
i basically studied the whole day,
with a few slacking moments.
I started out to kovan Mac at 12.30pm and studied for 1 hour before Zi came to join me.
We then studied all the way till 3.15pm when Janice came.
We continued to study and around 5pm,
Zi was hungry and wanted to eat.
But we had to wait for Eleanor,
so i told him to have faith that she's coming soon.
Apparently she came 2 hours later.
Haha.
Zi was like so weary and hungry.
We rushed to the prata stall nearby and chiong'd all the prata there.
Haha.
A widespread of food and we went back to Mac to study after that.
We decided to try to type the SMS into the Mac TV thingy.
So we waited and waited for our messages to appear.
Zi was fed up with waiting as our wait dragged for around 1 hour.
And during that 1 hour of wait,
the name "loudemary" kept repeating and we are all now hating that name.
Stupid loudemary.
Then there was the name Gina.
Apparently,
we thought of two ways pronuouncing this name.
Go figure yourselves.
Haha.
So went home and now i am going over to Zi's house.
Ciaos people.
Thank you Seah for telling me that.
I believe God wants me to be more humble and use His strength instead of my own.
To God be the glory!
Haha.

Surge Of Zai-ness
Today was a long and grueling day.
School was filled with all the sian periods except physics.
Beginning to love this subject with the help from my friends.
Anyway,
nothing much happened today,
except the fact that i tio tau pok'd again.
Haha.
So after school i went straight home and watched Heroes Season 2!
I love Heroes man,
simply awesome show.
Awesome to the MAX MAX MAX.
Haha.
So watched and went out at around 5.15pm.
It was pouring heavily,
really heavily.
I had to take the umbrella along with me,
which didnt really made much of a difference.
So i reached heartland mall in a long while and went to popular to buy the chemistry past year papers book.
Went to Mac after that to mug.
Started at 6.05pm and ended at around 10.20pm.
Still felt that that wasnt enough.
I really want to push myself to the limit and show the people who dont believe in me that i can do it.
I can get into the JC with God's strength.
But i have to work very hard and that's what i am trying to do now.
Hopefully these will all pay off.
But no matter what my O level score is,
praise God i will!
Now is time to get my surge of zai-ness ongoing.

With God, Nothing Is Impossible
So today was another typical school day.
Woke up at 9am,
went to school and played football.
After that we went back late to class.
Apparently the e2 and e3 teachers wouldnt mind us going back to class late.
But the e4 boys;
Jia Yi, Guan Liang, Tai Hong and Eugene Seah
got punished by Mrs Edison for going back late.
They were reprimanded and given to Mr Rashidin for them to run rounds.
Anyway,
today during maths lesson was yet another lesson where people around me were just discussing about their better-than-mine L1B5 scores.
They were discussing which JC to go to for the first 6 weeks while i tried to divert my attention by doing the maths paper.
Hais.
I will prove all those who dont believe in me that i'll be able to push my grades up by 6 grades,
not through my own strength but through God's strength.
During recess,
the ball got confiscated and we all got nothing to do again.
So we decided,
why not?
Let's go e3 to tau pok more people again.
And so we did.
Haha.
I stood at the the side most of the time directing traffic and got myself tau pok'd by the guys in the end.
Haha.
Went back to class after recess and just studied till school ended.
Went home immediately after school and slacked for a while.
At around 6pm,
i went to eat dinner with my dad and studied at Mac by my own after that.
Met Leslie and a few others from my church during my 4 hours there.
Reached home at around 10.30pm and i rested.
At this point of time,
i really feel that i've got to pull up my socks,
literally.
Work harder and i'll leave the results to God.
9 points is what i aim.
Seemingly impossible,
but hey,
"With God, nothing is impossible."

Thank You Jesus
Today was a normal day of school,
only thing was today's recess we did not play football as there wasnt any ball for us to kick.
So Phua decided,
"Hey! Why don't we all go up to e3 not to tau pok Hao Zhi cause we didnt do it yesterday."
Immediately,
all of us walked in a gang up with every staircase taken,
to prevent Hao Zhi from trying to escape.
We reached the top level and surrounded the e3 classroom.
I had the honours to sing the "Happy belated birthday to you..." song before grabbing Hao Zhi outside to get tau pok'd.
Eventually he got held down and we started the tau poking session,
2 sessions to be exact.
After tau poking Hao Zhi,
we procceeded to tau pok Tom Tay Seng Meng.
Haha.
He will always surely kena one.
After Seng Meng was Guan Liang's turn.
Haha.
A combination of e1, e2, e3, e4, and e5 people joined the tau poks.
After that,
classes resumed and kinda like that all the way till the end of the school where the sec 4 and sec 5 pupils have to go to the lecture room to have a lecture on our poorly done prelim examinations,
She started crapping all the stuffs and instead of motivating pupils,
she demoralised some of them.
What a dumb VP we have.
Hais.
Anyway,
after the wate-of-time lecture,
Bryan, Wei Kang, Yong Liang, Daryl, Jun Hao and me went to compass point to eat our lunch.
Bryan and Wei Kang left after eating while the rest of us went to the library to study.
It was a fruitful study time as i learnt many things from Daryl and especially Yong Liang.
Thanks guys.
Gotta really buck up on my physics if i want that A.
Went home at around 7.10pm and ate my dinner.
After that,
i watched a little bit of TV before doing finish the physics workout questions.
Did finished and do my quiet time.
Was feeling quite weird this morning when i didnt do it last night.
Anyway,
i just thank God for the great friends He's given me.
My life,
everything,
is all because He gave it to me.
I love you Jesus

Omnipotence Of God
Today was the day where we all got back our prelim results
and i can just say that i didnt do well.
Oh well,
it was a reflection on how much effort i put in into my studying.
I just thank God for giving me the peace in my heart,
even whe many people were comparing their better grades around me.
Well,
i am only human.
And the inferiority soon came to me.
But God took it all away when He spoke to me.
He said,
"The sun would still shine even through the pouring rain."
Just how great is the Lord.
Went through our papers today and had a few free periods where we goofed around instead of studying like some of other classmates are.
I guess the peace was in me.
After school,
went to rp to eat with the guys.
As soon as i ate finished,
i took out my a maths 5-year series and did trigonometry while the rest of the people were still eating.
I figured on saturday's sermon that we had to do our small part (studying hard) and God will handle the results according to how much we've done.
I lay it all on you God.
Studied till 6pm and went home.
Went out to eat with my parents after eating,
they sent me to kovan Mac where i studied.
Guess who i saw there?
Xiang Yu!
You may think that it's coincidence but it was God's intention and fate for us to meet at that period of time.
So we studied together.
He studied physics while i studied chemistry.
Studied for around one-and-a-half hours and we were both drained out.
Then i felt it was God speaking to me to speak to Xiang Yu.
So i told him about many stuffs;
God loves us, God can grant one peace etc.
And he slowly opened up.
We both spoke honestly about stuffs and it was really amazing to see how God can use me to speak to him.
I really hope that what i spoke to Xiang Yu would really get him to start thinking,
cause i agape him and i really dont want to see him in hell.
I'll just continue praying for his salvation and hopefully,
God will speak to him.
Thank you God,
for everything you've given me;
peace and love.
and i can just say that i didnt do well.
