We've Reached the 1st Finishing Line...

For every star I see,
For every breath I breathe,
For every song I sing,
You were always on my mind.

Just as the sun was made to shine,
Just as the wind was made to blow,
Just as the birds were made to fly,
You were made for me.

Cause even when I fall down,
Even when I hurt myself, and there’s no one to care,
Even when I was all alone,
You were always there for me.

If the sun stops shining 1 day,
If the stars that shine fizzle away,
When life seems to be meaningless,
I will not fret, cause you’re always where I need you.

When all hope seems lost,
When everything around me turns dark,
When my world falls around me,
You’re the light I cling on to.

Through all this, I’ll stand firm,
For problems will always exist,
And life’s just a roller coaster,
But with you in my life, I’ll stand steady as a rock.

Come what may,
Friends may abandon me and run away,
But I know of 1 thing that will never change,
My love for you will always remain.

You're my inspiration,
You're my dream come true,
You're my best friend,
You're my everything.

Just some stuff that randomly came to my mind.Enjoy! =)

Here's something I read.Its really awe-inspiring and inspirational.Enjoy!

College: Where the leaders of tomorrow are born! Convictions, revolutions, controversy, profoundness, influence, voice they are all formed in this place.What is the reflection of today's college culture?

Me: In the mirror.A faint image of someone I hoped to find.Searching for the missing element.Desperation screaming out.Eyes trying to break through the mirror with a brokenness from within.Yet I stood there, looking at myself on the other side, into an unbroken mirror, seeing a soul who wants to break free.

"We won't yet see things clearly.We're squinting in a fog,peering through a mist.But it won't be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright!We'll see it then; see it as clearly as God sees us!But for now,three things will lead us towards that consummation: trust steadily,hope unswervingly,love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love."

TRUST:You wanna know how I'm doing?Don't ask if you're not ready to hear what I have to say.If you already know the answer,its not really a question is it?Its a test.Please don't do that to me.Don't make me look foolish.Don't use me to make a point.Listen with your eyes.Listen with your heart.Do you believe my answers?Don't ask me to be what you want.If you wanna know my story,tell me yours.Let me know I'm safe.Let me know you're not perfect either.When I believe that,I'll talk to you.

HOPE:A magical word.Yet exclusive to those who believe.Gives courage to live out the purposes ahead.Fuels passion for a thirsting soul.A simple four-letter word that lights the path in the darkest nights.Not a hidden light.It stands bright,giving light to everyone around it.Not obtained through good work or kind deeds.Not something tangible or external.It is won in the mind.Conceived in the heart.

LOVE:Humanity is nothing without it.

TRUST steadily, HOPE unswervingly, LOVE extravagantly.And the best of the three is love.

LOUD: We only live once.There are no rewind buttons.No time-outs.No water breaks.No halftime.We won't quit on life.It takes great courage to live.When everything is stripped away,against the worst odds imaginable,when we outrun and outsmart difficulties,in that moment,we become a living legend.

Whew...another tiring day.Finally finished our Econs assignment.I had to print it early this morning.Today was the last day of the semester.Suddenly,everyone doesn't seem to wanna miss college.Everyone is like, "So fast the semester end." I'm just so glad for the drama competition.It brought our class together. 3 quarter of the class was in 1U together for lunch.Had KFC for lunch.I got to tried the new Cheesy BBQ Meltz.It was so delicious,though a bit pricy,but my gosh,it was worth every cent.




Sigh...I'm really gonna miss maybe the busy-ness a little.Its gonna be a lil boring without crazy guys like Dines around.I suddenly feel a bit sad,though I did mention in an earlier post,that there was nobody I could click with,but after the drama,it was as if everyone started to interact with each other.We would like talk to some people who we never talked to until we had to do the drama.


Well,a week study break,and we're off for our finals.Its gonna be tough,by the looks of it,but I should be able to study properly,without any distractions.Just gonna chill out a while,after all the drama and assignments and all,and just rest for 1 or 2 days.Then I'll start studying seriously.Gotta start practising my piano properly as well.Nowadays,I just don't have the energy to practise,and the exam is coming real soon in August.

Had futsal after classes today.The guys literally bugged me to go for it,though I didn't want to.Finally,I went for it in the end.We ended up thrashing KDU's best futsal team at an amazing score of about 20-5.We couldn't believe it.We just knocked in goal after goal.Couldn't believe that it was their best team.My arms are aching too,cause I had to rotate as a goalie,a defender,and a striker.Managed to test my futsal shoes(Finally!).

Went for a 'yum cha' session after that.It was good.We bonded and all,and its just so cool how the drama competition could bring us all so close together.It was nice.As we ended class today,we all said our goodbye's and good luck's for the exams.What the heck is up with the phrase "Happy Studying?" How can studying be fun?Anyway,it was just a nice ending,to a semester.I think we might be going against our juniors next semester for another drama competition,but this time,as a whole class,and not into groups. =)

Well,its been a tiring day.Gotta prepare myself mentally for this coming Saturday's worship team gathering.Gonna get some much needed rest this 2 days.Not to mention,I'll be busy studying for the whole of next week.This Saturday's movie plan looks to be cancelled.Sharmie can't come. =( Khye-Ren ain't sure either now whether she wants to go.Sigh...well,guess I'll have to find someone else,or I'll ask Linda.

Oh,today's daddy's birthday!He didn't celebrate though.Mum just went out with him,while I was in college,and Andrew was in school.They were at 1U as well.Its funny I didn't see them there.I was there from 12.30-2.30 and I didn't see them there.Maybe its cause we were too busy playing pool after lunch.Bleah.Li Ling just can't accept the fact that I'm better than her.Lolz...After she lost,still don't wanna admit I'm better...=P



Well,its been a rather tiring,but fulfilling day.Just hope I'll be able to do some stuff during the break,instead of studying studying studying.Bushed...Cheers peeps.Have a good week!
