for He is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.


生命中永远的插曲

Posted on Aug 21, 2008 under random | No Comment

生命中的际遇总是这么奇妙

我们都不懂下一刻会遇上什么人

又会与什么人告别

总是有一些遗憾

一些失落

但同时也有一些惊喜

一些喜悦

在一个陌生又熟悉的地方

我们的平行线交叉了

这是一首美丽的插曲

一首将会在我生命中

不断播放的插曲

take care my dear friend!

ww will be flying off to us california on friday. so sad that i cun go n send her off cos it’s simply too early in the morning, thk it’s ard 4 plus. :/

met up with her n sinyee today. it’s just so comfortable n happy ard them. thk i will truly miss them n really dun noe when will the three of us meet again, since we are flying off to 3 diff countries- ww to us, sy to london n me to beijing. haiizzz who knows, the next time we meet, everythg might just be so different. but i haf faith that this special friendship between me n ww will withstand the test of time n distance.

haha the 2 of us just haf so much telepathy between us that we actually both wrote a letter for each other at the same time. din prepare any farewell gift for her but at least i thk there’s this letter from me.

to me, words always have a special power n i treasure all the letters i have received. i guess such sweet letters will accompany me thru lonely n emo times when i’m in beijing.

heehee but i thk these words will juz make me more emo :p

anws, best wishes to them n hope they will haf a great time overseas! :DDD

finally i’ve confirmed my flight!! :D i will be flying off to beijing on 10th sept, 0840 in the morning. haha initially the bunch of us were thking of gg there on 11th sept, but it is certainly not an auspicious date to get onto a plane, happy that we changed to 10th in the end. :p

hmm for the one month left, i still haven had any fixed plan in mind yet. but one of the thgs i must do is to watch olympics!!! n one of my seniors actually got the tix to go and watch in beijing!! so envious la! but actually i prefer watching at home to going there and squeeze with the massive crowds. of cos the whole atmosphere there will be so much better la!

oh n i wan to crash nus n ntu lectures!!! n also visit my dear friends in their new homes on campus! :DD

when will the email come?

down wif flu for these 2 days. haha but in a way, it’s good cos i can haf a gd rest. but thk i’m allergic to antibiotics cos having rashes nw. or it might just be the fever. dunno why, for some reason, i will get rashes after fever. but still thk antibiotic’s a more likely culprit.

yay finally tspc is over and everythg went smoothly on that day as well especially our scholars’ performance. :D for the past few days, the finale song- ” the extra mile”, still stuck in my head. haha it’s a nice song with meaningful lyrics.

haizz btw still haven settled my visa n air tix yet. patiently waiting…

yay! :D

yay yay! great news from smelly bean! I am going to peking university for the next 4 years! that’s like my dream coming true la! so happy n of course super relieved! now can finally totally slack with peace in mind. i will be signing the letter of agreement, and at the same time, just like one of the fellow scholars had said, signing my youth away. haha but i know i won’t regret this cos this is what i want n this is what i had fought so hard for.

in case any of ur r concerned with when i will be leaving, til now i can’t give an exact date n time cos i haven booked the flight yet. but one thing i can confirm is that i will only be leaving in early sept. so ard one more month to go! woa thk time will pass super fast during this 1 month cos i will be caught up with all the admin stuff like visa application, booking ticket, n of cos also packing.

went back to dunman to relief history for 2 days. haha must be surprised why i go n relief history lesson rite? actually all i did was went into the classes n give them either worksheet or test. though really not much to do, at least i got the chance to meet the cute students i taught for the first 2 terms. i’m really glad to see them again! they are still as cute n childish as ever… hehe :p

他们结婚了!

与簇簇鲜花旁的爱慕柔情

从你说“我愿意”那刻起

就是我们的世界

the catcher in the rye <3

yay another gd book!!! must go n read this one, i totally love this book la! it’s about a teenage boy who got kicked out of high school. he left the school but instd of going home immediately, he stayed in a hotel and loitered ard numerous places. everywhere he went n everyone he met was depressing to him. he’s such a critical and depressed boy!

oh and i found the following on wikipedia, interesting sia. and thk these are the reasons making this book controversial in the early days.

“Mark David Chapman, who assassinated John Lennon, was carrying the book when he was arrested immediately after the murder and referred to it in his statement to police shortly thereafter.  John Hinckley, Jr., who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1981, was also reported to have been obsessed with the book.”

hehe but i felt really happy after reading this book leh. cos this was really gd to read and i was super addicted to it la. :DD

n a quote from the book that gave the book its name i thk :P : “  . . . I’m standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff—I mean if they’re running and they don’t look where they’re going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That’s all I’d do all day. I’d just be the catcher in the rye and all.”

OBS!

Posted on Jul 09, 2008 under random | 8 Comments

woa the 3 days OBS course passed really quickly. frankly speaking, i wasn’t totally enthusiastic about gg there initially. But it turned out to be a truly enjoyable course. my group was really cooperative and friendly and nice and all. we had no problems working together as a team. Everybody was super nice to everyone else. haha

though the last thing i want to do here is bore everyone with daily recollections, i still want to talk a little bit about the 3 days i had in OBS. the first day there wasn’t as physically straining as i expected. we played interesting games like key punch and zoom, which i really love. when i saw the complete flow of the story that we were trying hard to piece together, i was totally amazed and literally went “wow! cool!” after that, we had to do this obstacle course thg where we had to take turns to climb up some logs/rockwall to reach the top. I’m super proud n happy that i reached the top this time!! so happy la! :D

kayaking took up the large part of our second day. we kayaked on the sea for about 8 hours. luckily the weather was kind to us as the sun wasn’t scorching hot. given that we were all in long-sleeved shirts and long pants, we will just die from heatstroke if the weather was any hotter. we reached our campsite in the evening and we had to cook our dinner and pitch our tent. that night in the tent seemed like never ending to me. firstly, my body was aching like crazy. secondly, it was really hot inside the tent. thirdly, i just couldn’t sleep. i was soo madly looking forward to the next morning.

the third day we trekked for 4 hours back to our bunks, with heavy backpacks on our backs. my shoulders were simply numb after 1 hour. but it was a really unforgettable walk. though it was clearly told to us that this was a competition among the 4 watches, our group didn’t really bother about that competition element and simply took our own sweet time to ”stop and stare” at the nature, like the yellow flowers that will change colours at night, the red crabs in the mangrove, the still and clear waters in a granite quarry, etc. i believe being able to really take time out of our hectic lives to truly appreciate the small little things around us is very precious. hope i can also do that in the future.

the last activity was gg through a pitch-dark tunnel one by one. when the instructor shut the lid above my head, my heart literally went “pong!” simultaneously. being totally enveloped by complete darkness was really scary. so i just din think of anythg and kept crawling and crawling forward until i reached the other end. this kind of made me link it to my overseas study. i thk when i first go there, i will be all alone by myself, just like being shut in this tunnel, feeling helpless, scared, with no one ard to help me through. but i thk i will have to psycho myself to think that the road in front will be an exciting one, though challenging but fruitful in its own way.

anyway, glad that obs is over. here’s a pic of my watch, Lincoln. 

waiting…

Met up with caixia laoshi this morning. haha was so sleepy la. we were supposed to meet at 10 30 am but i woke up only at ard 10. :P really have to drag myself up from my super cosy bed. hehe. but  i was earlier than laoshi lo. HA HA!

the meet up really got me start thinking on my life overseas seriously. Being all by myself on a foreign land can be quite scary at times. though many may think that i’m just gg back to my homeland so there shouldnt be any big problem adapting to the life over there. but given that i’ve left that land for 10 yrs now, it will still be a whole new environment, without my parents, my friends and all. who can i turn to when i have problems? who can i hold on to when i’m down? definitely, i have faith that God will guide me through these 4 years. but yup just like what laoshi said, it will be better if i can find a spiritual buddy whom i can share my problems with when i’m over there. so will be praying hard for this. Pray that God will prepare someone for me so that we can grow together in Christ. really hope there will be christians in my uni.

haiz still haven confirmed which uni i’ll be gg to. Haf to wait til end of july. That’s like a super long 3 weeks more! I really hope that i can go beijing but yup still haf to be mentally prepared for any eventuality.

p.s laoshi, thx for the breakfast! :D

it’s a beautiful afternoon!

if you ask me now what i would miss when i leave, don’t be surprised when i say it’s sunday afternoon’s breeze outside our church’s office. :p maybe it’s just the lazy me (i’m not ALWAYS this lazy, guess it’s the wind lo, making me so addicted to 蹉跎岁月 hehe :P), but at that moment, all i wanted to do was just sit there and do nothing, simply waiting for the sun to set (that will be like 4 hrs later? :P). frankly speaking i really enjoyed the crapping session we had this afternoon, or rather all the crapping sessions we had together. thank you, my great brothers and sisters in Christ! :D n thank God that today’s prog went on smoothly! haha :D

Looked through my emails today. wow my inbox is now full of emails from fellow scholars. some of them really enthu about the presentation ceremony sia. as we have to come up with an item to perform on that day, they are all busy churning out ideas for the item. As i was reading through all their emails, suddenly i felt so slack. it’s like i’m not contributing enough to this whole performance thg. definitely i will turn up for all the rehearsals but i dun thk i’ll participate very actively in this. just for no reason, i feel a bit drained (though not sure drained by wad oso) and not really looking forward to all the progs lined up for us in the coming month, like the obs next weekend. i thk i should seriously change my attitude towards all these from now onwards. haha yup i will have to be more enthu!!

oh n i finally finished all the translation! so happy! yay! but this also means that i don’t have anymore serious work to do now. so i shall just concentrate more on the scholarship stuff. :D
