We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.

Musical Theatre Workshop

Its finally over. Well, it was a great 4 says and i really learned alot! Thanks so much Stephanie :D That girl is truly amazing. This is one workshop i'll never forget. I met so many new people who are really talented and friendly. ISo this it what we did throughout the workshop.



Day 1#

We watched this sermon from i dont know what but it was seriously amazing. It was about the universe and all the galaxies in it. And at the core of thefarest galaxy which is like 320 million light years away, theres something called the x structure. You know what it actually looks like? i really looks like cross!! It was so beautiful!!! Anyways, Stephanie explained to us about the song we were gonna do and what it was about and were its from. Its called "The Human Heart" and its from the musical "Once On This Island" which Stephanie performed for her graduation. So we watched the first bit of the musical, did some funny warm ups and learned part of the song.



Day 2#

Theres was alot about carribean style movements. It was super funny cause we did stuff like the chicken leg etc. Unfortunately, Sammy got injured and couldnt join us. I felt super bad for her cause all she could go was sit there and watch us...Other than that, we went on to this method of acting called story telling. Stephanie had us stand in a circle and kind of create the first thing that came to our mind and pass it on to the next person. My object was super weird. It was kinda like a box or something, like a treasure chest. Finally, we got into groups and "story told" the first 4 lines of our song. My groups went with the tv channel theme. Each person represents a channel, a line in the song. I was a sleepwalker(a dreamer)Once the viewer(kenny) went through all channels, someone called him away( lead him to the truth).



Day 3#

Now day 3 was interesting! When i got there, there was two new guys. One of which i found really haute!! Of course i wasnt there only one. Kate, Sarah and i shared the same view :P Moving on, all the girls went with Kenny to learn some movements to go along wiht the song we were singing. But then 4 girls left to learn the alto part. When we were done, we went back to learn the rest of the some. Finally, the song was comepleted and put together with all the separate parts(soprano,alto,tenor,bass). It sounded so cool. Really nice. We did this character thing where we had to close our eyes and Stephanie guided us, telling us things to imagine. Then we drew and wrote all the things we individually saw in our minds onto this big majong paper. Oh yeah that guys name is Aaron and he was in the YKLS with Balqis and my brother.



Day 4#

The day of our performance! We just touched up on the song and dance. But for some reason, the more i sang, the worse i sounded. Maybe it was cause of the itchy feeling i had in my throat.. Anyways, the performance went well and all even though i was pretty nervous. After that, we were treated to a performance of 2 songs by Stephanie, one of which she composed herself. Then Aaron sang a song for us too, from the musical Les Miserable 'Stars'. His voice is SO amazing!

stupidity's the name

My, my, my its been a while. Really a while!! This is seriously starting to become a problem. You know why? because I go online like once in 2 weeks or something like that.

Ok, the reason this post is called "stupidity's the name" because thats what iv been for the past few weeks.

First, last friday, at cheer practice, i was trying to do a handstand. And mind you, iv never done a handstand before. You wanna know what happened. Go ahead, take a guess. Nope? Dont know? Ok i'll spill the beans. I was so smart, cause when i did the handstand, i lost balance and fell*hard* on my shoulder and head. Shoulder hit the ground first followed my my head and finally, the rest of my body. Everyone was like "are you ok, are you ok?". The rest of my body felt ok except for my shoulder and neck. Didnt hurt that much at first but slowly, the pain grew. I tried getting people to pull my hand in hopes that that would help. No such luck.

So i went home and told my dad. Then he tried pulling but when i said it still hurt. He said i probably injured the muscle. Badly. So on sunday, my parents took me to think chinese chiropractor. Now comes the gross yet funny part. The doc told me that i had slightly dislocated my shoulder. Its stupid cause i was like "wow serious?!" I didnt actually feel that much pain to think that i did that kinda damage. Anways, i was told to avoid any form of strain on my shoulder for at least a week. And i followed his orders, up until today that is.

During PJ today, my captain asked that we do a little practice, since we werent having practice later. I have to admit, i was reluctent to do so because my shoulder still hurt and i was afraid i would injure it more. But regardless, i followed my captains orders. I did a few jumps and stuff. Then i supported soorah in one elevation and my shoulder already started hurting! I mean really hurt. I knew i shouldnt have done it but yeah. So i went home and told my dad and he called me a silly girl for doing that even when my shoulder was still hurting.

Final stupid move was at church earlier. I asked kate to show me this one move, the sitting on the shoulders thing. For some reason, i couldnt get my leg over onto kates shoulder and was stuck dangling there, mid-air. I was trying my best to reach the floor to brace myself for the fall but just as i was half a foot or so from the floor, kate lost balance and fell because i was putting all my weight back to lower myself to the floor. So i fell and really hit my hand into the floor ,then my shoulder. When i got up, my shoulder was practically burning and my hand had a carpet burn on it and was bruised a little.

Regardless of all the bumps and bruised iv accumilated over this one week, im still ok. A bit banged up but ok. So thats a good thing. I really hope my arm gets better by next week. Its starting to get annoying everytime i wake up, my shoulder hurts. Even thought i try my best to stay still at night while i sleep.

Anyways, that all the stupid stuff iv been doing this past week. Til next time guys.
Toodles, Caio!!

Oh Katie..

[Sonnet '15]
Shall I compare thee to a chocolate kake?
Thou art more delicious and more tempting.
Extra kake does cause an extra pound or two in July,
And birthday's lease hath all too short the day:
Sometime too rich the topping of a moments happiness,
And often is her true flavours untasted;
And ever bite from bite sometimes too much,
By chance, or indigestion's discourse, untrimm'd;
But thy eternal chocolate kake shall never end
Nor lose taste of the flavours thou ow'st
Nor shall Decomposition brag thou wand'rest in his shade
When in eternal layers to time thou mature'st.
So long as ladies can eat, or noses can smell,
So long blogs this, and this gives flavour to thee.
Dearest Kate,
Happy 15th Birthday!!!
Another year of your life has passed and we're still close as ever, girl. Isnt it funny how it felt just like yesterday you and I were shaking our booties in dypers. But at this moment, I wanna take ther opportunity to say I love you for the things you and I have been through together over the years. Your sense of humour is truely one of a kind!! Never fails to make me laugh. I gotta say, your level of maturity is way beyond that of your peers. And that is gonna take you far in this world cause your also one heck of a smart girl.
I hope you'll continue to grow in your walk with God cause I know you're bound for greatness. I can see it now: Kate Ng, a History Maker. You've got a few more years to go til you completely become the blossoming woman you're ment to be. By then I'll be getting old :P So make me proud girl!! Oh yes, find love in the places you know you're bound to be it; like from me!! Lameness hahaha.... sorry, the late hour is getting to me.
I'll sign off here. Hope you enjoyed this post. Especially for my beloved, dearest cousin! One more thing, sorry if I ever did anything to you that hurt you or made you feel like "ggrrrr!!!". I didnt mean to do it at the time. The anger (or whatever other emotion i was feeling at the time) over took me. You know I really love ya!!!!
P/S: For your information, this is a remix of the famous Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare. I renamed it in comjunction with your 15th birthday.
With love,
Marcia <3

I carry your heart with me..

I carry you heart with me
I carry it in my heart.
Anywhere I go, you go my dear
And whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling
I have no fate for you are my fate, my sweet
I want no world for beautiful you are my world, my true
And it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
And whatever a sun will always sing is you.
Here is the deepest secret nobody knows
Here is the root of the root
And the bub of the bub
And the sky of the sky of the tree called life
Which grows higher than the soul can hope or the mind can hide
And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart.
I carry your heart
I carry it in my heart.
-E.E. Cummings

My world

Have you ever woken up one day and thought :
"Man, Im really lucky to have the people i have in my life."

Well, i just had one of those morning. I mean, how often do we all appreciate the people who helped make us who we really are. For all the times they've listened to your meaningless ranting and complaints.. For the times they were the shoulders you cried on when you were feeling lower than the deepest ocean. But best of all, for the times they made you laugh and the memories that you'll always remember for the rest of your life. Because those memories are what make you a better person, the things that get you through a bad day. These are some of the things the special people in my life do.

For me, its mainly my family and some close friends. Mom and Dad, they've been my pillar of support for my entire life. Even though i didnt always appreciate what they did for me. But since a certain incident, iv grown so much closer to my parents and am totally comfortable to tell them everything thats in my head. The old saying is true, out of a disaster, theres always some good that comes out of it. My brothers, marcus and martin, sure they can be pains in the butts at times but regardless of that fact; their love is true and i'll love them no matter what. Sure, we had our fair share of fights and agruments but tell me are there ever siblings who see completely eye to eye? I think not. Out of our downs, they help me build endurance and tolerence against people that would cause me problems later. They were my first bestfriends too. Who could as for better siblings. If there were ever better parents and siblings, I wouldnt want to even know about them because to me and in my eyes, my family is already perfect!

Now coming to friends, how could i ever live without those people i am so blessed to know. Kate, Sammy and Shealin are some just to name a few. In all honesty, its always been hard for me to make friends. Much less best friends or close friends. But these people (and more) have made it so easy for me to open up and just love them. Theres no way i can go back to being all by my lonesome now that i know what its like to have true friends. Friends that will stick by you no matter what happens to you or what people say about you. Friends who will tell you what they really think about what you've been saying for the past couple of hours instead of beating around the bush cause they dont wanna "hurt" you. They'll tell you the truth because they know you need to hear it, even if the truth hurts. Now thats what i call true friends. And the true friends i have, im greatful for them. Thank you guys. I hope you know who you are.

What would our worlds be like if we didnt have friends and family? I'll tell what the world would be like. A total and complete failure. The world has evolved and been canggih-fied because of alliances and friendships. The world is for unity.

What do you guys think? Is friendship and family important to you?

You know I love ya!

First of, I wanna thank you so much for coming into my life( all cause of kate ). You've made such an impact in my life just by being who you are. I've seen you go through some bad times but Im glad you've come out of it better and stronger with God there beside you guiding you through it.
I dont know if Iv been the best of friends to you but whenever you're in a jam, you can be assured that Ill be there for you.

Prayer..

Can we touch the soul of heaven
Can we unite a sacred lesson
Every child creates a skylight of beauty
Can you hear cathedrals falling
All the universe is calling
Cry a single cello from your heart
Since the world has lost her way
Loneliness journey endlessly
Yet the promised chance remains
Gifts of what could be
So let the children remember the sun
Let the children remember the sun
Let them dance let them soar
For their lives have begun
Let the children engender the rain
As the river runs through fields
Forever subsiding their pain
Prayer
Every voice along the shoreline
Standing still within time
Spinning unresolved the walking
As each season passes
Through wonderland and looking glasses
The secret garden shires beckon's you
Gentle flower, don't fade away
Sweet innocent still harbors thee
In faith of garden dreams
Where one love lives eternally
Let the children remember the sun
Let them dance let them soar
For their lives have begun
Let the children engender the rain
As the river runs through fields
Forever subsiding their pains
Prayer
Prayer
Prayer
Bless the children for they are the light
They are the truth of spirit in flight
Yes the children engender the rain
As the river runs through life
Healing their pain
If you could trust with your heart but for time
Sweet angels, conceive you have
Forever and always believed Prayer
Prayer
Prayer
Prayer

people *sighs*

Why? Why are people the way they are.

Is it so hard to be nice and care about other peoples feelings?

I mean, whats the point of hurting and humiliating others. Getting back at them for things they may or may no have done.Its just gonna come right back to you in other forms. Two wrongs dont make a right.

Why can we all just get along!

Love your neighbours as you love yourself...

its been a while

Ok ok I know I havent been blogging for a while Iv been quite busy with school and all. Ok let me fill you guys in on what Iv been up to these past few weeks:

a) Went to the Curve with kate and sammy. Bought a birthday present for a friend. Sammy and I went to watch Pirates 3 but kate couldnt join us cause she had ballet. my favourite part of the movie, the proposal and wedding!!! Its like the wedding of the century!! So so amazing!

b) I went for a friends birthday dinner the following week. A simple dinner among friends but an enjoyable time. I was kinda overdressed tho :P

c) Then I went bikini shopping with my mom. After looking around, we narrowed it down to two, a white one and a brown. Mom said the white one made me look fresher but still wasnt sure. So we called my dad all the way in Aussie for his opinion. He chose the brown one.

d) I went to the seventeen summer splash and summer hunks party with sammy and kate. My first time wearing a bikini in public :P but it was really fun. Loved the pictures we took. Sammy!! Can you send them to me!!

e) I had my first attempts at apple crumble. It turned out pretty good although my made too much crumble but mom didnt seem to have any problems with that :D

f)Just last saturday, I went to the Beryl's chocolate factory for a tour with the people I worked for. Kinda dissapointing cause it was so short but the kids made it fun. The one and only cute guy there didnt make it bad either hehe. Sadly I dont know who he is.

g) Last saturday and sunday, the days I was waiting for for the past 3+ months. The Portrait. Sarah, Denise, Nicole, Ivan, Tze Quan, Tim and everyone else, Im so proud of you guys. You've made NST proud!! It was tear jerking ok and so full of emotion. Wish there was a cd of the songs tho. Really liked the songs. My favourite songs are Where Do I Go? and Give Me Strength. Oh and Joy In The Mall!! Wish I could see it again.

Anyways, that brings us to the present time and Im feeling mega sleepy for some reason. Been feeling like that all day.

The time has come now,
The time of my day,
To have all things go my way.
And that, for me, means sleepy time!!! Night people!!
Im out <3

Monday, June 4, 2007

why cant you see.. Your foolish actions are hurting people, your friends. And me too. I thought after all my hurting, I wouldn't be affected by this now. But guess what, Im still feeling the hurt and pain. Even now. I mean, dont you care about all the things that used to matter to you??
I was so stupid to even think you were such a great person. One of a kind. No one else like you. I thought no one else had your uniqueness, you sweet smile, the magic touch.
Now I know that was all a load of bull!!! What happened to you? I need to know that. For some closure. Please. Just do this one thing for me.

I miss the old you..
The one Im not looking at through a glass wall.
You're killing me.
From the inside out.

I don't really like you

I know what you're trying to do
Make me fall for you
Oh why
I'd like you to leave
And leave me alone
Everywhere I go,
You'll always be there,
Try to give you hints to leave
(But it's like it came of the other ear)
I don't care what you do
I don't care about you
I don't care get a clue
Cause I don't really like you, I dont really like you
You and your friends are dense
You don't make any sense
It's all at your expense
Cause I don't really like you, I don't really like you
You heard what I said
I said I don't really like you
Time passes by
And you wonder why
I'm not gonna lie
You mean nothing to me
I don't care what you do
I don't care about you
I don't care get a clue
Cause I don't really like you, I don't really like you
You and your friends are dense
You don't make any sense
It's all at your expense
Cause I don't really like you, I don't really like you
You heard what I said
I said I don't really like you
Time passes by
And you wonder why
I'm not gonna lie
You mean nothing to me
I don't care what you do
I don't care about you
I don't care get a clue
Cause I don't really like you, I don't really like you
You and your friends are dense
You don't make any sense
It's all at your expense
Cause I don't really like you, I don't really like you
I said I don't really like you

Workie work work

Ok so Im working again this holidays and today's my 3rd day. Somehow this time it seems a little different from the other times. Like yesterday was the first time I taught the kids anything. Ok so it was only cooking but it is harder so teach a bunch of 3-6 year old kids than it seems. Either way, it was a great experience and now I know what it feels like to be a teacher. Oh yeah did I mention, we moved to a very nice corner single story house. It's definately more spacious for the kids.

Anyways, I got my birthday present today from my teacher-and my boss. Thank you so so much Emanda!! I really love it. I got this really nice dress that we got from her sisters shop in Hartamas Shopping Centre. It's called Lovely Peoples Shop. If you guys can, go check it out. It's a really youth kinda shop with cute clothes, shoes and hair accesories. I got alot of pampering today, from shopping to food and playing with Emanda's o so cute baby girl. I love her to bits.

But, my happy bubble got burst just as we were leaving to head back home. Kate called me and said we can't go for seventeens summer splash party on the 9th of June cause it clashes with new life. Sammy also mentioned this to me when I invited her as my plus 1. Im totally bummer about it. Come to think of it, I think this is one of those tests God puts out for us to see whats more important to us. I mean, I know what I have to do and whats my priorities but Iv been wanting to go for this thing since April and its so saddening to me that I cant go now. Iv been running this throught my head since monday trying to find a way to learn the topic for the 9th and still go for the party. It does sound shallow, especially for me, but how often do I get a chance at going for a party like this for free. And this year is like the ideal year for me to do everything I want cause Iv gotta concentrate on my SPM next year.

Its times like this that makes me regret not taking full advantage of the years when I wasnt as busy as I am now. But no matter what, I cant turn back time.

Any suggestions on how I can get through this without missing either event?

Hmm maybe I should ask shealin whether I can learn the topic for the 9th this week too. I hope, I hope..

Holiday - Today

Goodbye school..Hel-lo holidays!!! Well, for 2 weeks at least :P
I loved today.. Really really loved it. Although it was kinda tiring.
It feels so good to ponteng school every once in a while. Especially when its the last day of school before holidays. As a result, I got to spend a whole day with my mommy!!! And I mean a whole day. Ok maybe spending a whole day with your mom is not that big a thing to some of you guys out there but to me, it's a real treat cause I dont really get to spend time with my mom that often.
And dont think I pontend-ed school just for fun. No thats not me. Well most of the time anyway. Nah, I didnt go to school today cause I had to go to the dentist to get my retainers. Man, just when you think you're finally done with all that metal in your mouth, you gotta put it right back in!!!
Ok, today. Mom dropped me of at the dentists' office before going to work cause of a meeting. When i was done-which was like less than half an hour-I went back to my moms office with her friend. By the time we got back, my momma was already it the meeting so I just waited in her office minding my own buisness, doing my homework( see, Im not lazy), reading my story book. Before I knew it, it was already 12.45 and time for lunch. By that time, mom was still not finish and I was getting hungry. Boy, was I getting hungry.
Blah blah blah... time went on.. more work.. more reading..
Finally, we got out of that place they call an office, more like slave factory to me( sorry mommy) and headed to maju junction where we did some shopping, some window shopping and more than a little talking. I particularly wanted to go see nichii cause Iv never been there but now I have :) So we went through the entire shop and found some really nice stuff, tried on a few and eventually bought some of 'em. I got this really darling brown dress. Simple yet classy. Really nice. Not something you find on any everyday basis, you know? Mom got a square collar white blouse.. and when she got home to show dad, he was like "wow.. so sexy.." -ok maybe he didnt use those exact word but wouldn't it be cute if he did ?!
Anyways, we finally got home after a grueling 2 hour jam-filled drive home. By the time I got home, my head was pounding so bad, it felt like it was gonna fall off my own two shoulder at any given moment. Oh yeah, did I mention that a baby lizard got into our car!!! I was so scared, I didnt even want to get back in the car!!! I absolutely hate lizards!! Moving along, we ate dinner not long after mom and I got home and that brings me to right now where Im pouring out my days events onto this thing we call a blog :)
Ok, Im spent. Im seriously one tired girl but also one very happy girl :) Im going to sleep the rest of whats left of today away.
Im out.

You..

Once you were here,
Now you're gone.

How do I feel?
I guess I don't know.
Or maybe,
I don't want to know.

In my heart,
You won't be forgotten.
But you,
You'll never be my number one.

I thought I knew you.
Guess I didn't.
But now,
I don't really care.
Not anymore.

Thank you for all you've done,
For me, with me.
I won't forget it,
It will stay with me.
Always.

Take care of yourself,
I know you will.
Just one thing,
Think before you act.

Once you were in my life,
But now you're out.
I don't want you in my life,
But I can't had you out of my life.

My heart aches for you,
Just for you.

You're not mine,
Not anymore.
You never will be.
You're lost,
To me.

Dissapointment.. and what it brings

Why is life so full of sadness and dissapointment? From so many aspects.. Family, friends, studies, hopes, dreams... You know, sometimes it feels better and easier to just give up and not hope for anything anymore, not dream for anything anymore, not want anything because it saves you the hurt and pain and dissapointment of not getting it.
After so many dissapointments from people, you tend to stop trusting people. Why bother? You just end up getting more dissapointed and more hurt.
But on the other hand. you know why we keep on trusting? It because we cant live alone here. No matter how many times we fall and are dissapointed with the outcome. We still want to let people into our lives. Its just a matter of how long it takes for us to let people into our lives and our hearts again. We aren't supposed to be alone, to hide what we're feeling inside us all bottled up. God doesn't want us to be alone. Why do you think God put Adam and Eve together? He isn't one to let us live life alone. So keep on having faith in your family and your friends. Sure they'll dissapoint you sometimes but hey, they're only human. But God, you can trust with all your heart because He'll never let you down. He always got your best interest at heart. Friends are there for you, to help you through it all, to love and care for you!
"If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you want to be happy, I be your smile. But if you need a friend, I'll just be me" - Sammy <3
Love you guys <3
We learn from our dissapointments so that we don't do them again.

the little miracles..

You know, over the past few days, Iv really been thinking about all the miracles God has give and done for me-both little and big. Anyone can see God's obvious miracles like trees and chirdbirth. But what about the little ones? The ones people tend to over look and think its just by chance or coincidence. I'll tell you something, nothing in this world is by chance or coincidence. It's the little miracles that really put me in aw of Him.
Just last saturday, my mom and I had a little miracle. Since that morning, we were looking for my brothers' house keys. After lunch, as my mom was reversing the car to send me to church, her pouch-that was on the center panel-slid forward onto this cup holder thing that has a clicking cover. So, because the pouch fell on the cover, it unclicked and when i picked the pouch up, guess what I found there. My brothers' house keys! You know, for one split second i thought it was just another coincedence but then i stopped and realised what just happened. God had given us a miracle.
Then just yesterday I had another miracle. I was waiting at the baskin robins for my mom to pick me from tuition. And my phone was just hating me!! Full battery and it still didnt wanna turn on! I tried a few times but it just wouldnt turn on! There was only one other student wait to be picked up but he was waiting further down the road from me. When he left, I decided to try my phone one more time and I asked God to give me just enough battery to call my mom and ask her where she was. When i tried it again, it did turn on. With an extra bar of battery!!! With that extra bar, I called my mom and she told me to walk to mcD's where she'd pick me up and just when i reacted mcD's my moms car just got there. God made it so that I didnt have to wait alone for my mom to arrive.
Its truly amazing how He works in our lives. He does so much for us so we'll be comfortable and happy everyday and He doesnt even ask us for anything in return. Dont we serve a great living God!! I believe we do. Anyone out there reading this agree with me? Let me know.
Love you guys!!

I not a KID anymore!!

Wow todays sermon by Ps Victor was really great!! and funny too! Actually, the whole nst day was totally the best.. First was the worship, i dont think we've ever done songs like that in nst before and it was really really fun!!
I really like that.. Ok, so todays sermon was mainly about the youth today and dating/relationships. Ps Victor invited 3 guys(lucus,philip and daniel) and 3 girls(debbie,pei ling and melissa) for a series of questions.I really agree with that the six of them said. Good work guys. I found the questions he asked were really relevent to all of us, regardless of our age. All the things he said about maturity, responsibility and commiting yourself. Some people need to get that in their heads.
I think if anyones gonna get into a relationship, they've gotta be able to handle it. Not run away at the fist sign of trouble. That just screams immaturity to me. I mean, why are so many of our youths in a rush to get into relationships your not ready for?? Ok fine, if you've been in one before and you find you cant handle it, why not just wait til you can instead of trying to get into another? Dont make the same mistakes again. And just because you're a few years older than you used to be doesnt mean you're able to handle a relationship. Like Ps Dan said, you could be 12 or 18 or 35 and still be immature. Oh yeah, guys, theres no point acting mature when you're really not cause girls can tell :)
Another thing Ps Victor spoke on was virginity and how precious it is. Once its gone, you can never get it back. And thats why TRUE LOVE WAITS. I really like what Ps Victor told us about the couple who married regardless of the factor that one of them had a STD. For better or for worse, even thought they couldnt have children, they were happy and stood by each other. Now thats true love. Accepting one another for everthing they are. Their talents, their capabilities and their faults.
Ok i found this part kinda lame but funny. Before your think of getting into a relationship. Answer 7 questions. I'll try to list all of them if i can remember.
1. Are your studies ok?
2. Are you responsible?
3. Have you discussed a curfew?
4. Have you spoken to your parents about it?
5. Do you know your limit?
Err ok i dont think i can remember the other two. So thats what i got out of todays sermon. I think it was really benefition to everyone who came for nst today. Maybe more benefition to some than others.
I think all of the above can be summorized into one line,
"you reap what you sow."
I whole heartedly believe that.
love you guys,
marcia <3
PS: Happy Birthday Pei Ling!!!

oh my...

I tell you, add math can KILL people!!!! its so weird ,you know. The second i opened the test paper, everything i studied literally flew out of my head. I was already dumb-founded by the first question-can you believe it, the FIRST question-the more pages i flipped, the more things i forgot. Well, guess theres nothing more i can do now. Im just glad i was able to do the majority of the paper. Guess Ill just have to wait and see how i did.

Now Iv gotta try and prepare for a paper of a subject I havent even begun to learn. But thank goodness the paper is supposed to be mostly common sense.

2 Days and 3 Papers left til Im home free. For now at least.

Im out.

Of Sweet 16s and Thank Yous

Look look!! Iv finally gotten a blog =P Im so lame hehe.. Anyways, today's my 16th birthday. Traditionally, sweet 16s are supposed to be super special(especially for girl-sorry guys). And so,today is special for me. Not just for me but for two other dear dear friends, Dayang and Michelle. So today is TRIPLE special!! Happy 16th Birthday to the both of you again.

Personally, i think sweet 16s is something that should be celebrated and remembered. I mean, we'll never pass this day again, neither will we ever turn 16 again so why not just celebrate the gift of life with friends and family and cherish it for all the days of your life. Man, I sound like such a hypocrite, I didnt want to celebrate my sweet 16 today but i do have good reason. Sorry kate!! I promise you'll get a chance to do something for me after my exams and after sammy comes back k =)

Ok,and for the thank yous. Mom Dad, without you, i wouldnt be here today. Thanks for everything you've done for me. To everyone who wished me, thank you so very much. Im really blessed to have everyone of you in my life. From lesson to lectures, from laughing to crying, from advice to naging, thank you. All of that has helped me become who i am. YOU'VE helped me become who i am.

Thats all from me for now. Gotta get back to studying for the dreaded mid-terms. Let me know what you guys think of my blog and what i can do to improve k. I dont really know what to do =P
