Lord, Reign in MeAfter much harassing on my part, the supplier finally delivered Amanda's jacket to my house this morning. Sort of marks an end to all the welfare stuff i ought to deal with. I think the fbt supplier really hates me, i call her at unusual hours to remind her how irresponsible i think she is. Haha but that's alright, the job is done and im happy.
I feel incredibly blessed with:

Do i appear very stressed? Haha, my parents bought five gigantic bottles of "Melt away stress - Daily calming wash" and secretly left it on my bathroom rack. Haha, funny, but i think they're actually quite sweet. Both of them went for medical checkup last week, the doctor's report came in a few days ago. I went through their report (well it was on the dining table for open viewing!!) and I felt so happy/relieved to see no red figures and the doctor's word that 'The patient is well'. Yes, both of them. Health is truly a blessing.
The week had been easier on us, it's like prelude to prelims.
I dont like dreams, they make me miss people :/ Do you know how it feels like to wake up from a nightmare to realize that it's pouring outside and you're completely alone?
I do.

"But your egyptian taskmasters will come and tell you: Why are you not studying!! Why are you sitting there listening to sermons! You tell the devil i'm resting in Christ, then enter into peace"Hahah, amazing analogy. I was laughing and crying at the same time when i read her message. Recieved several powerful revelations this weekend, i feel incredibly blessed.

I stand in aweFor God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind - 2 Timothy 1:7 Life's been pretty repetitive, almost like some sort of sick cycle. English oral was a complete nightmare. The thought of the examination just makes me want to cover my face and scream. Or kick something. Or both. Im exhausted )':
Took time off to support a friend last night. It was a great performance and I fell in love with the ACS (i) Guitar Orchestra. Haha aww man, they played all the pieces that i like. It's different when you hear live music - it simply takes, your, breath, away.
At times i wonder if God had meant for certain things to happen. Then this morning i came to a conclusion that i have no idea but He is in control and I have nothing to worry about. My trust is in Him and i'll rest in His finished work. I place all things in His mighty hand.
With that i think i just cheered myself up.
I'll go have breakfast, it is going to be a good day.
You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.Haha, awww :)

Make me thrill as only you know how
Haha I thought i would've outgrown some of my fears. Fear of the dark, fear of dogs that bark, fear of certain insects. I honestly thought these fears would simply leave me, the same way children stop imagining that there are monsters underneath their beds because what's more frightening is the world behind their bedroom doors. But i didnt. The cockcroach was about a metre away from me and i was ..screaming. Im a complete coward :/
Physics lesson tonight was actually pretty good. Somehow when i start struggling with the questions tossed at me during class, i leave the room with a sense that i've actually benefited a hell lot more than all the other students that were present. At times i look at the o level examination dates with some sort fearful expectation, i. dont. to have. any. regrets.
I need to help myself up. Um haha i think the first step is to switch off the tv right now.

You'll be in my heart
AlwaysIm still sick haha can you believe it?
I was running a fever last night, got thrown back to the doctor's office this morning. I think the doctor was rather amused when i said 'I came last week, i finished all your medicine..and im still not well'
I've been moping around since then.
As i grow older it becomes increasingly apparent that change is the only constant in our lives. It's funny how many things in life are simply not build to last. The way children grow up, adults grow older, people fall in and out of love. Every single day somebody is born, then at the same time, somebody dies. Inevitable, its like we're all set out to live life expecting, accepting, embracing change. Guess that's pretty much why in this world, the ones that are most capable of adapting to changes always seem to win the rat race in life.
Perhaps that is why i love how some things will never, ever change. In midst of all the changes which life offers to us, things that remain static attract me. I like old friends, songs that people can never get tired of, books you don't mind reading over and over again. The way i can be sure that the sun will rise up tomorrow morning, and the stars will be flung into the skies tonight. Or simply the fact that i'll always be a child of God, whether im 16 or 61.
Im waking up early to watch the sunrise tomorrow. Being stuck at home, worrying excessively and lack of motivation is making me feel more sick that i already am.

Fell ill ):
I waited about 800 hours at raffles hospital for medicine that makes me feel drowsy all the time. Isaiah 53 brings great comfort.
And by His stripes we are healed!
