7 points for Os (: praise the Lord! i couldn't have done it without His grace and awesomeness (: only problem now is that i don't know which jc to go to (acsi, njc or acjc?) i prayed about it, but i'm still not sure where to go

kristen, amy and keane say acjc
acjc deproved from 6 to 7 points, but kristen says she doesn't know anyone who has regretted going there. it's kind of known as a party school.

christine, nicolas, edward and my parents say acsi
acsi offers the ib programme, which is similar to university in terms of continual assessment, which contributes to a portion of your overall grade. they also offer chinese b, which is super easy, giving me more time to concentrate on my other 5 subjects. unfortunately there is a lot of essay writing, which i am very weak in, but nicolas says once you have a model essay you'll know what to write, and my parents say the teachers guide you all the way.

carolyn, deborah, huiying and claudia say njc
njc has a very good math programme, and is really near to my house, but it's known as a very mugger and boring/ no-fun school.

help please?

New resolve! Highlight important points in ODJ and exercise SELF CONTROL. Haha, I wrote "SELF CONTROL take God's word for it!" on a post-it and pasted it on my wall, hopefully it helps (:

My sis just barged into my room asking for cereal and I shooed her away, that's something I'll need to work on, heh. It's like a reflex action now, she comes into my room, I tell her to go away. But God said to "Do everything without complaining or arguing" (Philippians 2:14), which is obviously really difficult to accomplish, so help me out yeah (:

Also, " If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless" (James 1:26). Not gossiping is, of course, is an extremely challenging task too. In ODJ, Regina Franklin wrote "We can say we're just venting or even claim our arrows are well-deserved, but the fact remains". This totally applies to me, sometimes I justify my words by saying that I'm merely venting or that everyone else is doing it too, but I usually forget that God told us not to talk about people behind their backs. Sigh.

And and and there's "Think clearly and exercise self-control", meaning no more Youtube or being too lazy to go to McDonald's to study or getting distracted by music ): sniff.

Through all this, there's one thing I (we?) have to remember "store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy and where thieves do not break in and steal" (Matthew 6:20). No matter how much it feels like a burden to not complain, argue or gossip, and to exercise self-control, the treasures that God has stored up for us in Heaven are way better than anything we could ever have on Earth (: God bless <3

Hillsong [heartheart] (: Been listening to it the past few days. Exams really are a time when we need God a lot, but I feel quite guilty for running to God now and being so passive the rest of the time. I thank God for helping me get through my first day of revision- Weather&Climate and Nutrition in Plants- even though I only started around 6 (after the Amath mock paper) and finished at like, 10 in macs. Drew up the study plan today, chapters to study each day and approximated time needed to complete them. It made me feel really accomplished, haha. Hopefully I actually stick to this plan (totally dumped my prelim exam revision timetable), O levels are in 39 days and I'm trying to stop myself from panicking. Oh and by the way, the abundance of proper punctuation in this post is an attempt to begin preparing for the English paper (it's the first one!), haha (:
Chem chem chem, I need to mark my chem tys stuff now, bye!

i've been treating this blog like a twitter page, haha. and since nobody comes here anymore, i can type all the crap i want (:
i've been trying to think of a storyline for a personal recount or narrative for the past like, 2 hours? i can choose one of these topics: food, windows, sacrifice, fear, time, comfort. i already wrote a personal recount for comfort on friday, but now i need another essay by monday, sigh.
o levels are in 51 days! i realised an L1R5 of 6 is really quite difficult to obtain, meaning i may not make it to NJ or VJ, which means i'll have to go to AC or TJ (so far away D: ). sigh. but for now i have to think about O LEVELS, not jcs.
still can't think of a storyline ):

I really couldn't ask for more. What's stopping me.
Oh goodness what is all this. Stop thinking, hurry up and do something about it.
