i wonder how a friend of mine can get the motivation to study... she's one amazing girl...without taking A-level biology, she's in my course (biological sciences)...and she's so brilliant..she's teaching and answering questions and helping her friends with tutorials...friends who took A level bio...like me...=) and she gets top marks for her french elective...and she has such a beautiful spirit...just a bit vain...haha~
then i wonder where did my motivation to study went to....when my A-levels ended..where did it go? if a couple breaks up...the love carries on to their next partner... wherever it went..i need to find it fast...
people in church always fill me with such warmth and joy. every week they'll ask me how i was, how was my week, how am i coping...and how's living with louisa...=) my parents don't even ask....(but that's not the point)... it's so heart-warming that people actually care... they listen to you as you ramble on and on about your week....the complaints...and more complaints...and they offer sound advice and turn your focus back to the Lord. today we continued to explore into the theme of Godly friendships. alvin and xianhan chaired and it spoke to my heart..especially the part on family by xianhan and forming Godly friendships with the older ones (pastors and sunday school teachers) by alvin...
you know it's amazing how what's being shared and taught and preached every week is something relatable to me...esp after such a long long week...
now on my prayer list...i'm praying for the ypg and youth conference committee...for parents...for my family...for ACC and the kids there...for Carlene and Samuel to go back to the Lord...
anyways..been quite happy recently...and sad too....happy cos i got the clay aiken tour programme...it's very pretty!! =) plus the lance armstrong's 'live strong' band for his cancer research foundation...thanks yilin! and the aladdin DVD! just realised the genie (aka robin williams) is SO lame...didn't understand all the jokes when i was young...but now i do! go watch it! not to mention..the deleted song Proud of Your Boy..so brilliantly delivered by clay...garnered SO many rave reviews....=) oooo!! and i finished my webpage and loaded it up onto the NTU server!! feel SO accomplished....cos it took me SO long to figure out....so now i'm doing the autism section for the clay aiken singapore website....must learn photoshop and dreamweaver during the coming hols....=)
sad because christopher reeve passed away....sigh....superman...i was too young for the superman era..but my sis was...and she bought the entire DVD box set of all 4 superman movies..and got me hooked...esp. after smallville...he's an inspiration...may he rest in peace...
anyways need to find my motivation to study..instead of blogging!!
ps. clay's book and CD's out nov 16! cannot cannot wait....=) oh tmr's the emi fugita concert at esplanade! if my exams weren't looming so near maybe i'll go....=(
just had a thought! just! why is it we can never see the good things people say about us? we can never see past the bad things that we do, or the flaws that we have...like 'oh i'm fat'...and sometimes all you need is ONE bad review...and it surpasses all the good things being said....
point is..if u have a good friend, someone whom you know would not say things just to please you, or lie just cos he/she doesn't want trouble with you....and this friend tells you you look great in that mango jeans or you sound great when you sing....just believe it...because it's probably true..and the most honest thing u've ever heard....
ok...time to do presentation slides...and one lab report....sigh~
