hello everybody!

i was actually gonna go off to study but when i popped by here i decided to blog!

dee are you alright, cheer up. :/ i guess things do get screwed up, that's the way life is, but in the larger scheme of things all these temporal troubles like stupid music teachers don't matter. it is important, no doubt, but God is in control and whatever happens will be alright. He knows what He's doing. you know, i only came across this phrase recently - He knows what He's doing - but i realised it does make so much sense. we always talk about how God is in control and He has good plans for us and sometimes we get desensitized because its been said so often, but when i heard that phrase i found that it captures the wisdom and grandness of God. He is sure of how He works, although we aren't. He is the boss and the world is his company. He knows how to run it and how things should go, so we should just trust the boss cos we're mere staff. (: so dee, take heart. (: every time i see you i get reminded of how you aren't always doing well, but its so hard to ask you and get to the real heart of it all. but its okay, i'll pray... (: take care!

as time has gone on i've realised that i am completely satisfied with just those couple of people who are my pillars. they're enough for me. (: sometimes people get so caught up in being popular or having a wide social circle they fail to realise that the measure of friendship isn't found in the quantity, but the quality. the depth of love far outweighs the sparse but broad affection seen in so many relationships. i would go to the ends of the earth for those i love. (: but i guess why i even bother to reach out to others is cos i feel like God wants me to show them His love. cos we are called to be salt and light to the world, like cities on a hill, like stars in the sky that cannot help but shine His light unto others. so in the end, just be yourself. (: keep those who matter close, and only use God's love to reach out to the rest. otherwise you'll feel tired or it'll be for the wrong reasons. but hey, that's just me.

i have prelimsssss to study for. so i shall be off! sorry if i talked so much nonsense, i hope it somehow helps someone.

ok byebye!

love,

char.

i wish i were in acjc. i hate my school): the school's just got a serious problem.. first my EE gets screwed over then today i find out that my practical recording 2 months ago was never recorded cause of the teachers' absentmindedness and the settings of the recorder were wrong.. he even said just yesterday that i dont have to worry bout my practical cause its all done and recorded and he gave me 20/20 for my mid years. then i was bitching bout it to my other music teacher who told me to ask him infront of her and his responses were just retarded and she's like 'i pity you' and i havent prac piano in 2 months and im probably gonna hevt o record it next week cause if i drag it on its gonna clash with my lit oral exam. how's that my fault): its really. frustrating and depressing and im suddenly so stressed my prelims are in 6 or 7 weeks i think and i havent even started studying and ive barely started studying for my lit exam too):

remember how i used to complain last year like how i was such a loner in school and stuff and how badly school sucks. i think im back to that state again. just way worse. bleh. im in such a ihatetheworldeveryonejustscrewoffanddontdisturbme mood maybe thats why im ranting here because i dont even know where else to rant im going mad ): pah.

okay my next post shall be happier. i promise. if its sad i wont post it. ha. okay study hard people. dont be like me and just give up on everything this year. not the smartest thing to do after 11 years of education.

The broken clock is a comfort,
it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow
from stealing all my time
I am here still waiting
though i still have my doubts
I am damaged at best,
like you've already figured out

I'm falling apart,
I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to you

The broken locks were a warning
you got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded,
I'm an open book instead
I still see your reflection inside of my eyes
That are looking for a purpose,
they're still looking for life

I'm hangin' on another day

Just to see what you will throw my way
And I'm hanging on
to the words you say
You said that I will be ok

dee

MURIEL GRACES THIS BLOG WITH HER MAGNIFICENT PRESENCE!(:

hello everybody!!!!!!
muriel here!
i haven't written here for so long, i thought i'd forget the username and pw. ARENT YOU PROUD OF ME THAT I REMEMBERED?!(: anyway i must be mad, i'm updating this at 9.14am. i hope i work up the resolve to actually GO to church later. haha. i'm cramping): dee passed her deesease to me.

anyway! i suppose i must talk about prelims since they are imminent right. (nureen, google it if you dont know what it means.) all the best to everybodayy(: i'm quite sure you'll pull through, and even if your results arent stellar, fear not for there's still the final one which is A'S!! i remember o's, when we were all there together in the same place, pushing each other on and, especially for me, helping each other out. i must say i benefitted very much from this, for i was daft and didn't know anything at all. (not that now i know alot still. hahaha) anyway, i think my point is that, though physically we may no longer be in the same school and all that, you are the one's whom i'll always think of and pray for during exam times. i don't think you're ever really far away, coz at least you're always in my <3.>

okay so anyhows. do work hard everyone, and don't give up(: i love you all truckloads. let's have a get together soon! i think it might be wise to wait till prelims are over though. but we'll have a nice happy fun day with loads of junk food (and cucumber sticks for the anorexic ones coughvoncough) and we'll ketchup then yea? till next time,

MUCHMUCHMUCHMUCH<3<3<3
and
GOD BLESS(:

hello friends! how have you all been doing??
i know i've kinda been missing in action recently, but it's not my fault! with frisbee like bout 4 times a week, it's no wonder that i don't even have time to study much less catch up with you friends! but i promise, after prelims, i will be back in action, and you all will be able to enjoy my company once again! (:
you know my throat feels terrible right now. my sister says it's some lympnox thing or something that sounds like that. somebody who does bio go check it out! it hurts to even swallow water maybe. ah well.

hope everyone's not too stressed studying for prelims and all. i know i am. but well. another milestone to go then we'd all be in uni and on the path to our careers! haha. which reminds me i've yet to know what i want to study. but i know that i'd probably just want to marry some rich guy and start my own business. like a cafe or something! haha. but ethel's classmates were talking, and they think that i'd end up being some power career woman, who doesn't want to marry my boyfriend because i want to focus on my career, and i wouldn't want kids because they'd just be a distraction and interfere with everything. haha oh well.

anyway have fun friends. i must go do tutorials.

HELLO FRIENDS(:

i havent seen some of you in the looooonngest time): ELIZA AND CRYS where have you guys gone! haha we just finished block tests last wk so i'm taking a well-deserved(i think) break before starting to mug for prelims. blocks went fine i guess? bio was surprisingly manageable hahaha i think my school's bio dept finally decided to be more humane.
anyway i went for the psc career fair on sat and saw denise tessa debbie and mich yeo(: i think i might be interested in MOE/MOH/MCYS/MFA? grahh i dunno. but i eliminated the monetary authority of singapore and PUB and NParks and SAF and URA. at least its a start! 
i like being a student. you dont have to care about money matters or people backstabbing you or getting bonuses/promotions or whether or not you'll be fired tomorrow or smth. compared with the stress of workload school stress is a mere fraction! hahaha i'm talking like i'm 60. whoa cheryl dont age too soon. but i wish i could stay a student forever! i was just thinking the other day what my greatest ambition in life is, and here's what i thought of: (it's a multi-step process hehe)
1. working as a teacher of any sort for a while
2. getting married to a guy who earns substantial income when i'm 24/25 (aha dont ask me what substantial means)  
3. having 3 kids
4. retiring as a teacher and becoming a stayathome mom
5. giving part-time tuition/piano lessons
6. spend the rest of my life catching up with friends, raising my kids and doing things i love:D
ahhhhhhh. 
LIFE IS GOOD(:

hmmm i was just contemplating whether or not to publish this post but i decided i should since nobody else reads this blog except us right? i hope. alright i'm off now! all the best mugging for prelims!!!
LOVE
cheryl
