Felt so ACCOMPLISHED on a Sunday late afternoon since I managed to top up my Ez- Link Card and bought the addictive Ru-Yi Medicated Oil.
For at least once in Jan 2010, I don’t feel so poor cos I finally got my pay.
And, I’m so EXCITED FOR SCHOOL TMR!!!
I totally feel that my life is so boring that I don’t even want to blog about.
The only exception is that I did my quiet time super early, which is equivalent to it being AWESOME!
Jesus is awesome to speak to me SO CLEARLY. i love it when He speaks to me so relevantly to what’s happening in my life!
And I’m totally intrigued about nature He created and equations/math statements/ theorems/ axioms/ quadric surfaces He thought of?
How Cool is that man??
=D
Phew. 2009 is coming to an end. An eventful year I supposed.
1) I failed my A level General Paper and I retook it this year.
2) I took on my first job
3) I entered NUS Science Faculty,I’m majoring in Applied Math ( Surprisingly, I didn’t know why I had the courage to major in Math because only crazy people do that. And I’m crazy enough. Yes, I know.)
4) By God’s grace, I got the MOE Teaching Scholarship with my not-so-pleasant A level grade.
5) I went for 2009 Mission Trip
6) My Buddy was enlisted into Army
7) My Bestie graduated from her 12 years of schooling, finally, ended her school uniform years.
Fortunately, I’m still in contact with CCC, Wan Jing, Xin Fang, Rong Jie and Dexter.
I skimmed through vivid memories of what had happened throughout the year. Every laughter and every tear. Those meet-ups and those quarrels which I believed happened for a reason, I remember them.
Those hilarious moments i had with CCC would never change. I’m just so comfortable for doing anything stupid in front them. Cos I know they would not judge me for what I do and they love me for who I am. Even though I’m very different.
Those compromises my Buddy made for me. I remember them. haha. Somehow, Buddy sees me as girl even though he doesn’t want to admit it! BLEAH!
Those tearful period I had with my Bestie who never fails to be there for a really godly reason. Always ready to listen to all my craps. (sometimes, it’s really crap.) Thank You, Wan Zi.
Not to forget, whenever I’m so troubled with my academic studies, I would bother Carin with a text or call. Ha. And it’s either I was too excited or too depressed. haha.
And I’m excited for what God has for me for 2010. He brought me through 2009 every single moments. And I realised I just repeated myself cos I said almost the same thing in 2008.
-.-
Okay. It’s really my bad for not posting any entry because my holidays are SO AWESOMELY good that i didn’t want to rant on this forsaken blog. I’m listening to Dreams by Cranberries. Currently my favourite after watching Mona Lisa Smile by Julia Roberts. Just for the actress herself, the movie is worth watching. Cos she’s like so PREETTEEEHHHH. haha. for teacher-wanna-be, it’s a must watch since the film is dealing with conformity to the society’s traditions and purpose of education. Okay, enough of movie reviews.
I’m back from Mission Trip and YI Camp. hmm. this was supposed to be discussed about since grandmother ages ago. Yet, I do not have photos with me eh since a picture tells a thousand words
And I finally got to meet up my good old time friends like CCC, Cherchi and Jiaochi. Not to forget, I’m meeting Rongjie and Dexter soon. Can’t wait for those meet-ups.
I read through all my encouragement cards yesterday and I kinda got nostalgic of the times I spent in Fuhua and Anderson. Or even those times when I was much younger. haha. This sounds old, i know. Yet, I do enjoyed those times whom I spend time with the people I love. Even reading through cards from people who left church, for which they encouraged me to be a stronger christian for God. Sigh, how nice if they were back, sharing the same beliefs as me.
But, i know they are not too far away from God if they are truly saved.
God,
would You come like a flood and saturate me?
come like the wind and sweep throughout this place?
I need You desperately.
Here I am blogging as my linear algebra exam is tmr. Ha. But, by God’s provided strength and power, I’ve officially completed doing up my 2 helpsheets. What’s left is to go thru my tutorials and do some exam papers! WOO HOO.
I can’t wait for 24th Nov to come. It means the end of Semester and also the approaching mission!
I was recently inspired of what I’ve studied could relate to God. How ignorant could we be, by excluding God in our studies when God is the creator of everything in the Universe (remember not to limit God to creating only the Earth).
I took up this module called Understanding the Universe which is about Physics and Philosophy, searching for more truths about the Universe.
Then Heliocentric and Geocentric Models came to my attention of why Christians or generally Man should be God-centered.
Initially, Greek astronomers believed that Earth is in the centre of the Universe, which all planets are orbiting around the Earth. This resulted in the the Geocentric Model (look below) where even the Sun, the largest star orbits around the Earth.
One astronomer named Aristarchus proposed this Heliocentric Model (which in this case, planets, even the Earth orbits around the Sun) Copernicus finally proved that this Model should be the the accurate model, and won over the Geocentric Model.
This brought up one point, in the past, people thought the Earth is so important that everything revolves around us, we were self-centered. We believed that we must think for ourselvesfor whatever we do. For our interest, we will do it. Now, however, we, as man, understands that the Earth orbits around the Sun (which represents God). This clearly shows us that God should indeed be the centre of our lives. We need Him, and it’s not true that He needs us. We need the Sun for light, for plants making food to ensure our survival.
Hence, why are we still so self-centered? Because, we’re still holding on to the Geocentric Model.
