my time in church today was awesome.
especially during intercessory prayer within my youth grp .
we really felt the spirit moving within, among us.
after that, i feel so much stronger, empowered by the grace of God.
it feels great to know that God is with you always, through it all.
17 years now...

konbanwa.. practicals so far,
dame desu.. dame desu.. dame desu...
as expected, lenses came out.
i did the marble one before.
should be a breeze for me.
what happen? the stupid optics pin thingy...
made me stare so intently on it, my eye popped out.
viscous humour was leaking out, what a mess!!
i had to drink my own eye fluid.. yuck.
screwing the eye back in place, i continued with the experiment.
okay.. i was exaggerating.
anyway, many ppl could not finish. even top scorer zhang qiao.
i had just that tiny bit left to do..
haizz... what to do?? its down to theory showdown.
by the way, if you score full marks for theory, you still can get 80% even with 0mks for pract. so, work hard lo!!!

10 years had come and gone... its fast. good bye.
reflecting on the past, i've had my fair share glory days in this school..
but sadness and grief were also part and parcel of life in school..
spices of life, glimpses of how life would be after graduating, i've experienced it all.
i've been to the top. not once but twice.. 1st in pri prefectorial board then in sec., scouts.
i've been to the pits.. after suspension as head prefect, then destroying my reputation as a great leader in scouts.. maybe i was never up to standard. maybe it was all Gods will..
i've experienced life.. baby child born of my teachers. beautiful.
i've experienced death...my beloved ms serene leong, my great pal jasper.
i've even been a victim of politics played by teachers, as some of you may know, history teachers in sec2
i've been to the most nasty class (sec1G) seen public canning, got detention for nothing wrong i've done, affected physically, mentally, spiritually.
i've been to the most amazing class. class of 2005, sec3B.. with the most amazing form teacher.
i'd been broken down by pressure, almost every year.
i've cried out, punched the air, in ecstacy
i've done great things in front of the school
i've shamed myself in font of the school
i've failed
i've done well
i've made friends
i've made enemies
But what's important is that i know i've MATURED
10 years had come and gone... its fast. thank you. good bye.

its scary... i'm starting to over-react due to almost every small matter. even when the chopsticks are not placed neatly, i have to adjust them or i'll start to feel edgy all over.. maybe some sort of neurotism is creeping into me. its a weird feeling but it's most probably caused by the increased pressure from the comming examinations.
prayer will carry me through.

i'm sorry... that's all i can say.. sorry to those i've offended. but i was pissed (no excuse though) nothing was going right. the moderations suck. okay, i'm still sore over the a-maths thing. its really stupid. dhar herself agreed that the paper was'nt tricky.. it was'nt difficult. why the huge moderation? worse still, the higher you get, the lesser your moderation. unfair, unjust. top students are fuming. petition? but no one dares to. that's always the case.. ppl just keep quiet. should i take the lead once again? NO. enough. i've suffered the tag of 'bad guy' for long enough.. i shall just grin and bear it.
teacher went through the chem paper today.. the mistakes i made, silly/careless/sloppy. my eyes fixed on the marks on the cover, a drop of tear. filled with regret, sorrow, anger, desperation, determination, pain. now i've realised how lousy i am. arrogance have eaten up my innoscence. i'm only an empty vessel now, wating, hoping to be filled up once again...

Moderations:
okay. the moderations ain't going my way at all...
let me do a breakdown on them.
elementary mathematics: 5mks moderation
hello?? i can safely say 90 or more % of my class already got a1. for the 1st time my e-math got higher than a-math.. its like one of the easiest paper in all my 4yrs but wth? 5mks? dragged my 85mks to 90 but what's the point? an a1's still an a1 afterall
additional mathematics: square root of the mks times 10
this moderation is seriously stupid. what a crazy formula to use!!! now those ppl who scored high for this paper got lesser moderation than those that got lower. its totally unfair! ppl with b4 can be moderated to an a1. and i mugged maths like shit for what? still an a1, abeit with lesser moderation. truth is our paper is not serverely difficult at all. compare ours to monfort, bukit panjang sec, or even compassvale. its no where close!! yet the ridiculous moderation.. now i'm just wondering.. they are maths teachers right?
combine humanities: plus 8mks
okay.. this moderation is quite reasonable.. 8mks is useful especially when most of us only have one humanities subject. and the geog paper was marked rather strictly. but then again, maybe we were simply not up to mark.. that's why this moderation. maths teachers got a lot to learn from the humanities department.
english: plus 6mks
quite satisfied with this moderation. realistic results for me. considering the english standards in my school, i don't think many ppl deserves a distinction. (even me) so, not too bad.
3 pure sciences: no moderation
looks like there won't be any moderations for these papers.. bio paper was marked very leniently, to an extent of disillusioning many students. science papers were considered a breeze.. i should have scored well. but complacency set in. and nope, not up to mark. i have only myself to blame. but considering the way they moderated the math marks, i feel that we deserve some moderation in the science area. 5mks? 1 grade. that would be perfect. although i know i don't deserve it.

school was boring, tuition was great. when i was walking to tuition class today, an arm was suddenly stuck out in front of my face, out of the blue! accompanied by a burst of "hello!!!" i was shocked! a monster!! ARRRR!!!! okay.. i exaggerated it. but anyway, it was jamysic.. no offence la, but i really didnt notice you walking towards me... maybe its the rather prominant height difference. haha! ying jie and mabel simply laughed it off at the sidelines.. haha. i was seriously shocked. anyway, a-math was enjoyable.. the marists finished the previous paper so we got a new set and started to challenge each other... it was close, but in the end terence(as usual) finished most qns.. i was close behind with 1 less but min young and randy, try harder next time!! haha!! chem tuition, however, was weirdly quiet for me... a sudden sense of loss when these 2 person are not in class.. i was able to concentrate better though.. haha.. the mcq test was really challenging this time round.. for the first time, i lost more than 3mks.. 5 to be exact. looks like i still got a long way to go... time to go prepare for comb. humans test. bye!

O God, You Search Me
O God, you search me and You know me
All my thoughts lie open to Your gaze
When I walk or lie down You are before me
Ever the Maker and Keeper of my days
You know my resting and my rising
You discern my purpose from afar
And with love everlasting You beseige me
In every moment of life or death, You are
Before a word is on my tongue Lord
You have known its meaning
Through and through
You are with me beyond my understanding
God of my present, my past and future too
Although Your Spirit is upon me
Still I search for shelter from your light
There is nowhere on earth I can escape You
Even the darkness is radiant in Your sight
For You created me and shaped me
Gave me life within my mother's womb
For the wonder of who I am, I praise You
Safe in Your hands, all creation is made new
All my thoughts lie open to Your gaze
When I walk or lie down You are before me
Ever the Maker and Keeper of my days
You know my resting and my rising
You discern my purpose from afar
And with love everlasting You beseige me
In every moment of life or death, You are
Before a word is on my tongue Lord
You have known its meaning
Through and through
You are with me beyond my understanding
God of my present, my past and future too
Although Your Spirit is upon me
Still I search for shelter from your light
There is nowhere on earth I can escape You
Even the darkness is radiant in Your sight
For You created me and shaped me
Gave me life within my mother's womb
For the wonder of who I am, I praise You
Safe in Your hands, all creation is made new
everyone left and its all quiet and peaceful once again. party for my dad and sis today was rather fun. we played with sparklers in the playground.. lol so lame.. grown teens running around like a foolish gang. nonetheless, it was fun. pure innoscence. unfortunately, kia got a splinter stuck in his hand. haha. dunno why he go rub the wood flooring? lol. i tried to show off la.. ex-scout way.. pretend to be medic. haha.. in the end, i broke the splinter into 3 pieces!! still in his finger. OUCH! okay, i managed to get one piece out, but we ended up clipping off some of his flesh to get the others out.. haha.. so unlucky.. what can i say? there's no free meal in this world. looks like that's his price. haha!! sorry la kia.. sad. anyway, some ZJ ppl that came played my guitar. they said it is a very good guitar.. guess what? it only cost $60!! sadly, i'm unable to relish its potential cos i'm a lousy player.. currently. hopefully one day i'll be a pro guitarists like those ppl. all right.. signing off! ja ne
