it is easy to trust and praise God when everything is going on well.. but when everything crashes, will you still trust and praise Him?

i'm still trying to accept it.. but all i can say is that it is not easy..

time to update my blog after abandoning this place for quite sometime.. come to think again.. time really flies.. its like things really changed over time and sometime i wished that everything will just remamin the same. but the fact is that things still changes..

passed out from BMT during dec and enlisted to HTA on dec. And now, i am back to be a recruit again.. it is like going back to square one again but i am really thankful that i did gone through BMT as i really learnt and experienced lots of things over there.

training in HTA isn't that easy as i have always thought it would be. Though there are much more freedom over here, but somehow i just felt stressful. maybe because i am the permanent squad IC and thus whatever wrong we do, i will be the 1st to be scolded. its so stressful.. hopefully the commander will start to choose tempoary squad ic to relieve my stress.. =)i guess i really need to try and enjoy myself instead of thinking + clogging myself with so much thoughts.. somehow i just felt that i am not being myself recently.. i guess i really need to do something about it..

anyway, i shall stop here. off to take a nap plus do some stuffs..

thank God for the guidance today. Oh ya, in case you donno. I went for the Singapore Police Force's selection assessment + interview.

Though i am not sure whether will i be accepted by them but I thank God that i am selected for the 2nd interview whereby only a handful of people are selected.

Anyway, clock is ticking! the enlistment date is drawing near.. nervous but at the same time, excited! haha! a short post.. ~short and sweet~

What Can I Do - Paul Baloche

When I see the beauty of a sunset's glory,
amazing artistry across the evening sky
When I feel the mystery of a distant galaxy
It awes and humbles me to be loved
by a God so high

What can I do but thank You,
what can I do but give my life to You
Halle- lu- jah, hallelujah
What can I do but praise You,
everyday make everything I do a hallelu - jah
A hallelujah, hallelu - jah

When I hear the story of a God of mercy
Who shared humanity and suffered by our side
Of the cross they nailed You to, that could not hold You
Now You're making all things new by the power
of Your risen life

oh man! 2.40am now but i am still awake. actually i wanted to interact with my bed but i can't! i had to complete some work 1st.. argh!! got to wake up at 6+ later cos i will be working..

just came back from malacca with daune and chang bin. this time round, it is quite a fruitful trip for me as i managed to figure out how to control the kids. i learnt that sometimes you got to set rule with the kids so as to prevent them from crossing the boundary. when it is time to be fierce and firm with them, you got to do that.

had been reflecting these few days and realised that at times, i have been telling people not to do certain things but in the end, i ended up doing them.. i think it is time for me to make some changes and to practice which i say.

off to do my work.

just realised that this blog of mine has been casted away by me and it is growing weeds. Shall update some of the happenings..

went to kukup in malaysia last sunday to monday with some of my secondary friends. really experienced simplity in that place and a bit of kampung feeling too. nice!

came back to singapore feeling sick but thank God, i am okay the next day. Then, went durian picking with liangfa, yixin, wanwen + wanwen's friend.

after the durian picking session, went back home to rest for a while before going to church for the youth camp. super tiring but really enjoyed myself. my last camp before my enlistment into army. break camp on thursday and went home to rest a while before packing bag for the children camp on saturday which lasted till sunday. really enjoyed myself especially at the marina barrage whereby we played in the fountain with the kids.

and today, just got back from malacca with daune and pengs. feeling like a dead fish now but at the same time, i learnt & experienced a lot of things.. time to go and rest.

trying to make full use of my time before enlisting.

steamboat with the gang(sec cliques) at bugis to celebrate Jiali's birthday was fun!! plus those very "artistic" drawings by pengs on the bday card.. (He drew me with a hairstyle which looked like as though i am struck by lightning)

after that, went to glyn's house to chill and play wii.. it is indeed very fun! but tiring and my arms are aching now.. Seb and i broke the world record in the running game! wahahhaha! played the boxing game and again, it is filled with laughter again. especially with cy's gay-ness.

will be going out on 14th Feb with the gang again. (Singles only) wahhaha! who says 14th Feb = valentine day? it can be Friendship day too!

just added one of my course mate on facebook.. then she tot i always disliked her(as a friend). oh man! in the end, it is a misunderstanding because she says i always looked fierce when i am not smiling. oh my goodness! haha!

Daniel Powter
Best Of Me

I wasn't mean the wrong way
Won't you do me the right way
Where you gonna be tonight
Coz I won't stay too long

Maybe you're the light for me
When you talk to me it strikes me
Won't somebody help me
Coz I don't feel too strong

Was there something that I said
Was there something that I did
Or the combination I broke that did me have

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Though it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
You know that some of us spin again
When you do you need a friend
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
And I hate the thought finally been erased
Baby that's the best of me

Everything's behind you
But the whole place signs besides you
Living in every moment
Have I wasted all your time

Was there something that I said
Was there something that I did
Or the combination I broke that did me have

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Though it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
You know that some of us spin again
When you do you need a friend
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
And I hate the thought been erased
Baby that's the best of me
Baby that's the best of me

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Though it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
You know that someone those spin again
When you do you need a friend
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
And I hate the thought finally been erased
Baby that's the best of me

Shall do some updating about my happenings. i am not dead yet.. don't worry...

Last week

Wednesday
Kinda disappointed in the WISP presentation. sigH!!!

Thursday
helped out as the JAE Greeters in Ngee Ann Poly. It is fun! i mean like representing your school and interact with people.. it is nice! hahah! was playing prank with Jerryson to other greeters.. in the midst of the helping out, i realised that time really really flies! In a month time, i will be saying bye to my poly life and hello to my army life.

At night, went to jurong point with stacey, sheng long and raymond to find present for our Da Ge(Pengs). But didn't find anything pleasing thus, we decided to get it on sat. went to Pengs' house for steamboat and cakes! they are nice lah! i mean the cake.. then something happened, they started pulling my shirt(Ngee Ann's engineering polo tee) and it actually teared! oh my goodness.. but thank God, Pengs got an extra tee shirt.. ho ho ho.

Friday
Went to Vivo with Jerryson. Wanted to get new year clothes over there but nothing caught my eyes so in the end, spend time walking around. Then, we went to subway for a meal + chat.. Chatted from church -> personal life -> sec school life etc.. it is fun !

Sat
Went to Jiayan's house in the morning with liangfa to help and collect food for Pengs' party followed by going to edna's house to take the chairs. then went to queensway to get present for pengs with raymond. aaron accompanied us there. Reached home at 3plus as my bro wanted to use car.

Sunday
Went to help out in the sv event in the morning.. was feeling quite lost but managed to endured through.. thank God.. then went to lot 1 with alan and desmond(my 2 pri school/childhood friends)to jalan jalan...

Monday(Today!!)
Today = stock market test! was kinda sian because i saw someone in front of me copying! i mean he brought in a note full of answers and used it to answer the questions.. personally, i don't think it is very honourable. like you won't feel that kind of happiness when you receive your result. but come to think of it.. whats the point of being angry? it is his decision..

just came back home from jurong point with my bro and 3 other childhood friends..

okay.. shall stop here..

2nd day of school started off with a fierce war. erm... i mean a war in my nose... got back another common test paper. i am slightly disappointed with the result but thank God that at least i passed.. i really think my course(micro-e) which consisted of 60 people now as (another 60 of them are having attachment) now are insane. the result which i got is at the 70 mark range but i am considered one of the lowest already. can you imagine how insane those other people are? oh my goodness.

just came back from the family camp and also from the christmas event. it is so tiring..

Was thinking why people celebrated christmas when they don't even know the actual meaning of it? like when we eat dumpling, we know that it is because of a ancient man name Qu Yuan. but christmas? Do they know that we celebrate christmas because God's son, Jesus, was born on that day on earth? not to be serve by people but to serve people. He died for us at the cross to save us. Even when people are mocking and laughing at Him, He did not punish them or wat. instead, He prayed to God to forgive the people.

How great is that love. To die for people who He don't know and even die for people who mocked and laughed at Him. Till His death, He even forgive people who mocked and laughed at Him.

was doing my testimony sharing to the people in the event and during that time, it really makes me reflect and think about how God really lead me through my life. so many things which i have forgotten about it but it happened before.

things like...
- How God actually lead me to pass my 'O' level and get into poly
- How He actually lead me to have a life transform. If He wasn't in my life, i would be in a dire state now.
- How He lead me through my attachment in Germany. Without Him, i would have gone mad or dead.
- How He actually caused me to be careful of my actions. i know that at times i can be rude or bad to my family members, but i am trying to change.

i think there are simply too many things to thank Him for.

However life isn't always so smooth flowing. There are also times when i am really very down. However I have learnt more from these things and understand my weaknesses. it is all in His plan. God loves me and He have His plan. I will keep praying for it and see how it goes.

finally! my holidays are here!

Spent my last week studying for my exams. for the last paper which is on friday, i studied till 4am and wake up at 8am. it is so tiring. then had my last paper at 11am till 1230pm before having my lunch with my classmates at SIM. then, we played soccer at Np's street soccer court. but i managed to play for a while because i got a stupid blister + crack at my feet. it is so painful that i am limping while i am running. After that, rushed home to bath and get changed to meet jiayang, emmanuel and joshua at orchard. It is fun as it has been a while since i last see joshua. when it is time to go home, jy and i managed to con joshua and emmanuel to take bus with us instead of mrt. wahhaha!

sat, went out with seb, cy, zy, stacey and mavis for supper. haha! we went to T3 there to eat popeye followed by sitting at coffee bean to have a chatting session. it is fun as we are talking about the funny moments of our life and in sec.

sunday, had buffet at parkway mall there to celebrate glyn's birthday. again. it is a fun day. seb almost died due to a leg which is strangling him. and seb lying on the floor because someone(i think is cy) pushed him to the floor. seen how fast cy can run. wahaha! after tat, went to batok's csc there to play bowling.. thanks ah ken for tricking me. he sat on a massage chair and his whole body was vibrating. during that time, i really thought that his body is vibrating due to the massage chair. then he offered me the seat and i just go and sit there, thinking that i will get a free massage from the chair. but who knows! that chair isn't moving at all. the reason why ken's body is vibrating is because he purposely vibrate it himself. and the whole gang is like laughing at me. sad.. wahhaha! after tat, we went to timah there to have a drink before going home.

today went to a christian bookshop for a look. there are quite a few books which is quite interesting too.. bought myself a book and shared one with jy.. reached home feeling very tired. tomorrow medical checkup at CMPB. time really flies. half a year more, i will be enlisting into the army i guess.. thats fast.

got to go .. bye!

fed up about my WISP module..
my group consisted of 5 person. me and another of my classmate while the other 3 is from aerospace engineering.

1) Uploaded things into the website but in the end, realised that all the informations which me and one of my group mate(my classmate too)had uploaded were being removed.

2) supposedly to have a meeting on compilation of ppt slides on thursday at 4.30pm. my class end at 2.45 and i waited for them in atrium.. in the end, my group mates told me that the meeting is cancelled. some more there isn't any reason of why the meeting is being cancelled.

3) i have did my part for the powerpoint slide and i have added points for parts which doesn't belong to me but one of the member from the aerospace engineering told my classmate that i did not do anything..

argh!!!!!! facts and work which the members did are not appreciated and everything is being decided by one of the member. what kind of group is this?!

okay.. enough of the ranting.

i am still learning to spread gospels to other people. as in to be daring.

whenever you think that you could spread gospel to your friends or loved ones next time. think again. how many next time do you or other people have? you might see him lively at this moment, but who knows what will happen in the next moment? life is fragile.

played soccer on sunday with cy, ps, jiale and liangfa. we expected more people but the rest couldn't come due to various reasons. in the end, we played among ourselves for a while as there are no challengers. then after that, we went to have our lunch.

played soccer again on monday. but this time is with my coursemates(micro-e) and some other old classmates from year 1. it is quite fun but at the same time, tiring. my legs are now sore. haha! during this game, i realised that one of my friend who is in the same combined lecture as me, he is from bbss too. he is from NCC too.. haha! what a coincident.

had micro-e photo taking today. it was fun!! we were like doing stunts.. hahaha! alright.. time to log off.. ciaoz!

it is not as though i really care how my hair looked like but it is just kinda funny to see someone walking around with a pile of grass on his head. haha!!

a video link which Huey sent to a lot of people i guess. i mean the boy in the video really makes me realised how great is my God.

God sent his loved son, Jesus, to the earth. Not to be served but to serve people. Jesus died for our sins on the cross. When people are cursing or laughing at Him while He is on the cross, He did not ask God to punish them but instead He asked God to forgive them as they do not know what they are doing.

Something for you to think about.

Imagine you had a pet which you loved very much but one day, you had to put it to sleep due to various reason, how would you feel? same goes to God. He choosed to send His one and only son,Jesus, to die for us at the cross. What would He have felt? He could have not sent His son to die for us but because He loved us and wanted us to be saved, He choosed to sent His son to die for us.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

went to holland village yesterday to have the buffet steamboat at crystal jade. once again, food wastage is a problem. haha! my table is struggling to finish up all the food and also, there are always free gifts(food) which my friends from another table being pushed to us. but thank God, the waitress says that she will not charge us for the food which are wasted this time. haha!

but it is really fun to have such event and there are times whereby we couldn't stop laughing. oh ya, my table consisted of me, chin yew, jia yang and sebastian.

now when i see the lobster ball, i will think of the action which sebastian had done. he scooped the lobster from the soup and he took a bite. but he realised that it is not cooked yet then he THROW it back into the soup. oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!! then we are all shouting and we are like trying to qurantine that ball but in the end, sebastian go and mix up all and we had a hard time finding it.

finally, we managed to find it by a clue. the clue = teeth marks on the lobster. sounds gross but it is really very fun. haha! alright. back to my e-learning session with my class.

Ana Laura - Completely

The secret of life is letting go
The secret of love is letting it show
In all that I do
In all that I say
Right here in this moment

The power of prayer is in a humble cry
The power of change is in giving my life
And laying it down
Down at your feet
Right here in this moment

Chorus:
Take my heart
Take my soul
I surrender everything to your control
And let all that is within me lift up to you and say
I am yours and yours alone
Completely

This journey of life is a search for truth
This journey of faith is following you
Every step of the way
Through the joy and the pain
Right here in this moment

Right here, right now, and for the rest of my life
Hear me say

I am yours and yours alone

went to cleanroom today again. oh man.. it is a tiring lesson.

before we can enter the cleanroom, we have to wear shoe cover, mask, hairnet, hair gown, jump suit, bootie, safety goggle & gloves...

going into the cleanroom makes me very tired. due to lack of oxygen as we have to constantly keep our face mask.

Finally the first week of school had passed. What i can say is that it is very stressful and it is not like the previous sems. The modules are getting much tougher than before and at times when the lecturer is teaching some modules, i cannot understand anything.

Usually during the first week of school, there should not be any homeworks or assignments. But just this week, i got 2 assignments to do and the deadline are just a few days later. Stressed.

However, thank God that i am able to wake up on time and reached school early for this week.

Goals for this sem.
-Reach school on time everyday.
-Strive hard and to score well as this will be my last sem in school and i should glorify God with my results too.

thats it for today.

a year passed like a flash of lightning which struck across the sky.

i guess during this day next year, i will be in army.

really had to say that time really flies.

too fast for us to actually missed our things in life.

when there is only one chance in our life, how are you going to grab/cherish it?

okay. enough of my thoughts.

thanksgiving to God for His guidance thoughout the year. i will strive my best in my studies. last sem of my poly life..

started school today by dragging my feets to school. come to think of it. i haven't been in np to study for close to 9 months. but i am glad that most of my classmates are ppl whom i have seen before. some of my poly mates came and wished me while i am in canteen 2 for lunch with them. not forgetting my sec cliques and some of my church mates. thanks alot!

okay. a cool post. shall end with a song. kinda liked this song now.

The man who cant be moved

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move,
Got some words on cardboard got your picture in my hand,
Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am,
Some try to hand me money they don't understand,
I'm not...broke I'm just a broken hearted man,
I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do,
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you...

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

Policeman says son you can't stay here,
I said there's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month, a year,
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows,
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go.

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

People talk about the guy
Who's waiting on a girl...
Oohoohwoo
There are no holes in his shoes
But a big hole in his world...
Hmmmm

and maybe I'll get famous as man who can't be moved,
And maybe you won't mean to but you'll see me on the news,
And you'll come running to the corner...
Cos you'll know it's just for you

I'm the man who can't be moved
I'm the man who can't be moved...

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

So I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

I'm not moving...
I'm not moving.

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag not I'm not gonna move.

finally completed our job of the month. we managed to complete it within 4 days. woo! shall update about the soccer which we had just now. we went to FICO at 12am to play soccer. it is a new location and it is slightly cheaper. but i can say that it is much better than playing at the cage. why would i say that?

1.) it is much cooler as it is surrounded by nets and it is located near a forest which means it is very cooling. we were puffing smoke while playing. not that we are smoking. but it is because of our higher body temperature compared to the surrounding.

2.) the grass is nicer and you will not feel that strainful or tiring while running. it is very smooth.

3.) you can play for an hour or more than that without feeling tired.

4.) it is located near westwood secondary. which means it is much nearer compared to The Cage which is located in Kallang.

cool man! really enjoyed the game yesterday. hopefully we will be able to play over there more often.

the holiday is coming an end after a month plus of relaxation. oh man! school is reopening on monday. argh! a 'perfect' gift.

just came back from playing The Cage.. it is tiring and i got a big bruise at my shin. oh my goodness! thanks to sl for that sliding tackle on me. but overall, it is rather fun and i am panting like a mad dog again. my stamina really cannot make it. i need to improve more on it. i guess it will be the last time which we will play The Cage? it is rather expensive. 180 dollars for 2 hours due to the timing which we played. we played from 12am-2am. while we are playing happily in the cage, i can foresee the guy who is incharge of The Cage to be smiling his way to the bank.

off to sleep. full of aches + pain at my legs.

tired day..

played The Cage at 12am - 2am. It is so tiring! i am running my lungs out already. but it is fun as this is the first time i played over there and in the wee hours too. but it is a bit expensive. $180 for 2 hours..

almost overslept for the sv program but thank God, i am awaken by a call. but throughout the program, was feeling rather tired and thus i didn't speak much. barely rest for 10 mins before my mum called in the evening to ask me to go to Ang Mo Kio there to fetch here.

finally i can rest now.. okay..

went for dinner after church yesterday with my family and my bro's gf. It is a new experience because usually the dinner is just the 4 of us. but now, it is 5. it is good as it is more lively during the dinner. During the dinner, my parents were like sounding out whether i got gf anot. haha!

today, went to ten mile junction to fetch & helped to carry things for my mum and aunt. was planning for a game of soccer at The Cage but somehow, we didn't go and play soccer due to the lack of players. kinda unhappy of it because some of my messages which i sent were either not replied or ppls backing out during the very last mins.
in the end, decided to cancel it and just go down to the canel there for a jog. it really helps to take away that anger and unhappiness.

end of my day. got a job assignment followed by a bible study tomorrow.

today is a day with mixed feelings. went to sv for the math program and over there, was trying to help a student with his math worksheet. i really had difficulties to convey the subtraction concept to him. despite using several ways to teach him, he is always like distracted or couldn't understand how to do. really kind of worry for him because he is pri 4 now and i think he should already know how to do subtraction.

after that, went to plaza with wy, jiayan and jun wei for lunch. at there, i saw ken! long time no see anda! cool. went back then send my dad to ubi there for his work. then drove back. went online but my internet wasn't very stable. wanted to chat online but in the end, i gave up the idea of doing so.

then, went out to wash car with des then i become the delivery man of the night by buying back dinner for my family.

actually was kinda pissed off by a driver during car washing. shall not elaborate more on it.

shall stop here now.

today, went to Toa Payoh in the morning with my dad to settle something. then came back, planned the route for tml, went jogging by myself for a while then sent my dad to work followed by fetching my bro, des and sx from school.

siansation to the max.. ahh!!!!!!

been working for this week.. it is a good experience as this is my this first job which requires driving.. and it is good! i mean to be able to drive a manual van after like 8 months? oh ya, i am working with cy and ps and we are running around Singapore to refill things in the vending machines. erm.. i mean driving around Singapore.. usually we will go to schools or MRT stations. cool..

looking back to the period when i was still in Germany, i was kind of amazed how time really flies. i thought i couldn't have make it there but thank God, i managed to survived. Through the time over there, i learnt a lot of things and have to made choices which is hard for me. But i guess i will just have to put my trust in God and He will lead me through. yeah!

its has been a while since i last jogged. doesn't have the motivation to jog now but have to start to force myself soon. time really flies... still remember during this time last year, i am in Thailand for mission trip and next year, i will be in army and soon i will be either studying in uni (hard to get in with my current GPA) or making my choice of my life. which is the job which i intend to do.

okay.. shall do some updating ba.. went to pick alan up from airport on wednesday. He went to New Zealand for some training. when i was at the arrival hall, i saw Cheng Peng. Then i realised that her brother is in the same army company as alan and they both knew each other too.. what a coincident. sat, went to airforce open house. I guess it wasn't as good as the army open house which i went last year. the airforce open house seems much dull? like it isn't as interesting as the army open house. after that, went to church and realised that i will be doing my testimony soon. in 2 weeks time i guess? must start preparing liao.. ho ho ho... starting work tml... hope that we won't lose our way.. cool...
