disclaimer:
This photo was obviously not taken by me but taken by others. Next,egocentric will not be an ideal reason for me putting up this picture, but i think it is pleasing to the eyes. That's from my point of view. But seriously, my mind cannot trace back to when i took this photo. Nevertheless, it still looks nice. :) This photo can be compared to PAUL FRANK. Still, i think the photo above has much reached utopia which paul frank will be frank enough to know that he's still at the pit. :) lol.
alright, time to inject some life to this lifeless blog.
Firstly, i met all with all my sheep today for shepherding today, and i was extremely convicted of one thing, God's grace. We do not deserve it, but it was given to us freely. One point that struck me was this, have we forgotten what is life without purpose or life without Jesus? This is why we are obligated to share the gospel to others. Obligated in context means owe. In short, i owe you the gospel. Comtemplating will be out of my selections because i owe you this piece of good news. Grace, amazing. If only we comprehend about the grace of God in our lives, our life wil never be the same again. A brillant example would be Paul. A guy who held up to 3-4 PHDS, had a 180 degree turn after experiencing the grace of Christ. The truth be it is this, we all need God's grace at some/all points in this journey. Simply because you and i are limited. Finite. Helpless. I challenge to readers, myself and sheep is this, make it a point to share about Jesus to at least one person per week. One of my conviction is this, i don't care whatever position you hold in church, but you have to share the love of christ PERSONALLY to someone. It does not mean, the higher you go, then you have NO TIME to SOW. NONSENSE. This has nothing to do with a command or whatever, but because you have experienced the grace and love of God, it will motivate you to share his love.' Grace. That is a simple reason to why i outreach. Even if the every christian on this planet called earth were to vanish into thin air, and you are the only one left. The great comission is still for you. Hence, this exam period, we should still see growth. :)
On a lighter note, let me give some of you an update about my current life.
Let me be frank about this, i ambivalent towards JC life with High school ministry.
It is filled with TONS OF STRESS, but FUN because it's thrilling. However, at times it could be quite taxing. But the invisible hand will bring me to the equilibrium soon. :) Stress, but with God, it makes life so much better! OH YEAH, speak of that. I want to declare that i have a loving shephed, DENNIEs loh, he came all the way to city hall on thursday night while i was mugging under pressure and gave me exotic exam kit. That simple gift came in timely. Just when i desperately needed something badly. Thank you Shepherd and God. Though i was under the heap of stress, i thank God that there is him. I could always run the my shelter of refuge. Thank you, Jesus.
I am anticipating for the following thursday to come, for it will be all hell break lose! lol! Exams will be finally over! For nw, i'm left with chemistry and econs paper! God, please help me! I think i am really gone case, but please guide me. oh yeah, i thought of this, ' if i happened to be in 08:01, my new combi will be Geo hist econs math!'. That is if i retain.
GP: GOOD AS DEAD.
PHYSICS: EH. THERE GOES BEAUTIFUL A, SAY HI TO B/C/D
MATH: SMILE. SAY HI TO A OR B.
CHEMISTRY: X>U
Economics:X>U
Believe it or not, i have not touched econs and chemistry! I am going to touch chemistry later! :) haha. I just hope to do a H3. But promoting is a big issue, thanks to GP.
Oh yeah, i enjoyed this exam period. Because i have been fostering stronger friendship! Esp with Caven, Alferd, Kar Jun and Clarence.
Okay, time for me to turn in to bed now!
Please pray for my exams!
There are so many things i will wanna do after my exams! whee!
hoe!

The north leaders :) First era under priscilla! Few people missing out, DK and Ruth.
I still vividly remember out first meeting at city hall. With only Pris, Zinc, Ruth, Dk and Jun Yao. Then the following sunday we had our first DMM at Esplanade library. Where we spoke about what do we want north to be. We laid down on the floor and so on therefore. :) From that five of us, north then continued to grow and train strong and bibical leaders.
The people you see here, are all priscilla ex sheep. :) Interesting? haha. See, all so strong! and HANDSOME and beautiful? maybe. lol.
EVERYONE! From pris first CG to what she is leading today! haha. ever since the HSC days to east, titans, north, and so on therefore.
gaze upon the blankets of blue sheet above your head,
let the brezze sweep through you bare skin,
listen intently and hear what only you can,
muse upon certain thoughts that will make radical change in your life.
is God real?
consider this. If not, give it up.
faith.
more than meets the naked eye.
what do you think God is dealing with you?
few photos :)

i shall not remonstrate about my fateful general paper.
i shall not remonstrate about my fateful general paper.
Horrendous would be the utopia word to describe the astounding questions and death.
but i shall share a hilarious sight during the exam.
I PEE ON MY PANTS. :)
why? NEVEROUS LIKE MAD! We were told to study for some stuffs, and NONE of it came out.
BEAUTIFUL! Then i wanted to rewrite the essay in the last 15 minutes - once again, another stupidity in exam.
FAILED. Because of that, chemicals raged at the speed of light.
Every ink on the pen is a catalyst to each drip.
I raised my hands with the intention to ask for permission to the loo, and the teacher merrily gave me MORE PAPERS, instead of looking at me.
So i prayed, and i was convinced to STOP WRITING.
I handed in my draft instead. David, just trust God.
Paper two- simply putm no one in my class completed the PAPER at all.
Most stop half or 1/3 at the AQ. why?
The whole compre was about DEATH.
It was literal. We were going to die.
I was so demoralised after the paper, but oh well. Moderation can always take place.
In cj, fail GP equates to forget about about subjects.
But is God real? If he is, i decided i will not give up!
holding on to you.

awhile ago, i was apathetic to do this post for serveral reasons.
still, i have decided to make a post on my beloved bed. And in no time, i will be gone with the slicing wind.
At hindsight for how the past few days, i live my life as if i will be sitting for common test this coming week or next. Gosh, it hitted me today that i am going to take promos. God, i so deperately need you. It is at such period where i can grow even more. You only get to go through exams testings only during exam period. Where you might contemplate to give your all to ministry or not. :) I want to continue to grow! :)
alright, tired. i am so convicted of running after promos.
oh yeah, i went swimming with xy and will today. Xy did 16 laps and william 12? which is a breakthrough for both of them. while i did 24 laps. highest record for myself!

It was a rashed decision to go for a short run at around 11.35pm, nevertheless, i was reminded of something by God.
FOCUS. :)
anyway, i am gald to have made a new friend in schoo, Clarence.
Studied with him today, and i guess we will still be doing so tmr. :)
Gosh, his alternative plans if he were to fail promos is to study in Aust.
nthing better to say.
okay, i have work to do! Sian, but God, please see me through.
oh yeah, while running, i have decided to run to cck after my promos from potong pasir. And i will make sure, sathya come along too. :)

If i'm going to have my faith in Christ, then i want to make sure my faith will astound you, just like the namless woman.
If not, why even bother to start it?
My object of faith is simply, astounding.

roar, i did a post just now and it was deleted due to the mischieve of my fingers. :/
sometimes, i would consider the best part of a friendship is to sit around a table, with your back leaning onto the couch and a cup of ice cream or drink in front of you. Musing over each other daily happenings and laughing at the clumpsy things that we are capable to do. Most importantly, it is the quality time we spent together. Though the crowds are just oblivious to our world.
My day was simply delectable with the friends i spent with and the ambrosia scrumptious food. Gosh, it was heavenly. Paradoxically, sinful. :)
After an astounding preformance for the teacher's day in CJ, many of us dashed to the school gate and head for the bus stop. No doubt, most of the frantic people were rushing to their former schools. So did i. As i alighted from the familar bus stop, a sense of nostaglic feeling swept across my entire body. The feeling was ... whao. Though the distance was short to the once seemed mundane place, i reminisced many moments i shared with the school. :) I was truly elated to see the wide smile on the teachers faces when i approached them. :) I must tell you that i did not regret this trip back to Beatty. :) I can finally say this, i love beatty! It is the relationship that i have fostered with this once banal school. :)
After the visitation, Nikhil and I went to J8 for Lunch. The meal over the table and the strolls we had brought back what we used to have. Though we are in different schools now, the friendship reignite when we saw see other. :) He's one those close friends that i have formed in Beatty! :) We ate PASTA MANIA!
Afterwhich, i met Wei Keat for shepherding, and we indluged oursleves in the most sinful chocolate marshmallows cake at secret recipe in plaza sing! Gosh, it was giantic! :)
The peak of the day came when we had t29 gathering! Gosh, i must tell you that i truly missed those times where we chill and slack around every friday! Though we are in different path of education now, this few hours meet up was indeed fruitful! They are all God's blessings to me! The idiotic thing was we met at Orchard, then we head to city hall new york! Nice food man! I once again, ate A LOT!
Thus, in my final analysis, i need to start running after a sinful day!
Promos are eh. 20 more days. The truth is i am so busy, that i really need divine intervention to achieve the impossible! Help me!
