today was a great day. first of all, was the EL prelims. which was much of a fuss. haha. it was feasable, yet challenging. but i believe that i will be able to do it. yes. considering that the compo question that i selected was what i believed in, Freedom of Speech.
after that, went ice skating with Rachel, Felicia and Cherie. had fun skating around the rink. skated from like 2pm to 5pm, during the first few hours i managed not to fall at all. haha. until my cross came off my neck and i decided not to place it back on. then i suddenly fell without reason. haha. gosh. its a sign! lol. maybe not. haha. person who fell the most, Felicia. person who fell the least, Cherie. lol. why must i do this? haha. no idea. for the fun of it. haha
met up with my cell group at clementi after dinner at CCK. den we headed to NUS for a prayer meeting. it was great, although we had to walk around the campus to get to the different stations. yup. after the meeting, koh drove us, lol, or rather he neutral geared his car all the way down the hill to the prata shop outside NUS. lol. the prata there was great man! lol, or maybe it was just the sugar. haha. the milo was great too, haha, must've been the condensed milk. haha.
yeah. so now i'm back home, tired legs and all. tomorrow is teacher's day, gonna wear home clothes to school. haha. yup. that's it for today. nights all.

i just got home from the dental appointment. and nope keith, i didn't get a gold tooth. haha. they said i wasn't of age yet. lol. teeth still growing. haha. well.. i'm now considering whether or not to go to school. the decision which i will blog about later today. haha. yes. the tooth filling was a good experience. lol. i just don't like the sounds of the machines drilling and stuff like that. haha. now its back to normal.
--------------------------------
i also realised something last night, while chatting with felicia(yap)[then i realised i knew alot of felicias). and its that sometimes, or most of the time, as people age, they tend to be more logical than faithful. it turns out that at the time i declared that i wanted to go thru wit this faith test, i received remarks like "just go to the dentist" "this kinda stuff no need miracles" "God will only give miracles to those who need them" "just do the most logical thing"
ok, first of all, i wanna say God did not allow us to suffer, he only permitted us to suffer. and that miracles can happen to anyone. not only to those poor or those without logical solutions to their answers. c'mon man, people have told me many different things, like for instance, someone having their leg grow back a few centimeters, or having dengue fever just removed from them like that. dengue fever has logical solutions, but why does God still perform miracles like that?
now comes to the big check question, are we as Christians becoming less and less faithful in the things we do or in God, are we being less and less dependant on the Father in heaven? are we always giving ourselves excuses not to listen to God, not to let God have a chance to do something and just rely on our own personal methods to overcome the situations we are in? think about it. God will only move when we allow him to move in our lives, he won't come down here and tell ya "hey, let me do something or i'll smite you." instead, its the simple childlikeness and faithfullness of the Christian that pleases God. Are You letting God work?

i am seriously breaking down. don't know what to do. everything is just so, emotionless to me. can't really say i'm in a good mood right now, neither can i say i'm in a bad mood. its like the stuck in between feeling, and i hate it.
i seriously feel like giving up on this faith challenge. after all the things i've heard, all the outcome. i don't know if i can hold on, if i can carry on believing for the miracle anymore. i feel like i'm continuosly pushing on for the nothing. but i know that its not the thing to do.. so what do i do? continue pushing on, or give up? gosh. the answer's so obvious. but the will to do so. gosh! what the hell am i thinking? why am i putting myself in such a situation in the first place? how can i let my faith be put down my people? David! get a hold of yourself. push on for all you've got! you wanted this in the first place, now strive on to get it! finish what you've started! do not give up if its the last thing you do!
---------
was at ikea just now. having hotdog and free flow of drinks. guess that's like a good thing now. lol.. i don't know why, don't ask me.
good. this coming week is good. like nearly 3 days of holiday, followed by one week of real holiday. good, i can get a rest of things. just rest, enjoyment for a moment, nope, not computer games. i don't think computer games has any effect on my now. everytime i play them its just the same old process, which is totally boring. sometimes i just wanna go to a quiet place, maybe the library or a park, sit there and enjoy the quietness and nothingness. no worries about the things around me. maybe one day i'll do that. maybe one day.

okay, i went to koh's place just now, initially for cell group. but i went there earlier. haha. to slack and destress. lol. so, went thr to find my bros, keith, ben, and melvin. watched them swim and played the swings too. lol.. sounds childish, other than that we were also scaling the playground. lol. yes, then after cell group keith, melvin and me went for dinner at the nearby hawker center. then we headed for home. haha.
i think i'm starting to like watching "The Batman" cartoon again. yes, again. haha. its nice man! other than that was justice league and teen titans. lol. kinda spent my morning sleeping and watching cartoons. haha. started watching at like 10.30am and stopped at 2.30pm. haha.
yup. so when i got back home after dinner, practiced doing graffiti for awhile, and then saw that "Makuta" bionicle lego kit displayed on my table. so i went to wikipedia and read up on it. lol. kinda interesting, and i realised there's a much better looking model than Makuta, called Takutanuva. lol. sheesh, i don't think you guys have the slightest idea what i'm talking about. haha. so i'll end here. haha.

see. yesterday, i broke my front tooth, or rather, i broke the filling of my front tooth, lol, the filling that was placed there like what, 6 years ago. haha. while biting on a hazelnut in a chocolate bar. or rather i heard a breaking sound and i thought it was the hazelnut, so i look at it and i was like, oh crap, hazelnut not broken, wat else could've broken, tooth. gosh.
i was like oh shit. panicked awhile, got angry with myself, despaired. gosh. i wonder how i could've had so many feelings at one go. but in the end, i realised that i should pray.
so here's the thing. this would be the ultimate test of faith for me currently. yes, it might sound crazy, but i'm gonna do it. or rather, i already done it but i'm gonna continue doing it. pray for my tooth to grow back to its original state. savvy? crazy? gonna need a miracle, but i believe in miracles, and faith brings miracles. faith pleases God, God can do anything, including mircales, so its worth a shot. since i'm going to the dentist on tuesday. so do me a favour and pray that for me. get rid of the logic for a moment, and think faith. challenge issued. you got the faith to do so?

right, now let's continue on with my story. you know, time flies when your having fun, it feels like sunday was just yesterday, does that mean i'm having fun? having fun studying? you gotta be kidding me. i've been an irritance today, or rather, the class joker. it must've been some reaction in my body when i heard i topped the class for english summary (note : I AM NOT BOASTING!). i was doing the impression of the Cookie Monster (Sesame Street), Darth Vader, General Greivous, Canon in D, Wo Ai Tai Mei, DotA Heroes, and a squeeky voice from which i couldn't derive the origins. The People who accompanied my idiocies, Jeremy, Stanford and Zhi Sheng.
Called for dinner at Clementi with brothers Keith and Ben, on the way there, met up with Ah Mei, Felicia Loi, classmate Kalavathy and ex-classmate Wee Kian. arrived there and had chicken rice, and what i thought was Ham Chi Peng.(does this ring a bell?)
walked around and had ice cream, ah, doesn't that make you happy? aft that found ourselves at Keith's place, watching AP4 and him playing a DotA match, while waiting for the Star Wars movies to load into my hard-disk. afterwhich, me and ben headed home.
upon arriving at the corridor outside my place, received a major fright by a cat (thinks, gotta be kidding me do ya?) followed by a release of a loud shout. lol. just couldn't help it, it just came outta nowhere.
yeah, so that's my day.
to all those who are feeling down and out these days : cheer up! don't lose hope. God Bless ya all.

one tribute to one of Star Wars most powerful Generals, General Greivous. Pity he was destroyed by Obi-Wan, i guess he could've easily decimated him, if only Windo didn't Force Crush Him, which is also the reason for his cough.
haha, alright, this is also one of my photoshop productions, not really that good. but this was what it looked like before i edited it.
interesting right?. haha, actually anyone can do this. its pretty simple, simple usage of the History Brush, Motion Blur, and inserting Text.
lol, i can nearly start my own tutorial. now the only thing i'm afraid of is that George Lucas or anyone of his crew chances upon this site and finds me infringing on the copyright law. haha.

okay, guess why i'm back home this early. haha. clearly i'm not supposed to be. but, sigh. i took the early release form cuz i wasn't really feeling that good just now. stomach ache, then still very painful, couldn't take it, so i went home. must've been kfc last nite. geez.. haha. yeah. but now i'm feeling better.. haha.. prescription of Chocolate. strange? nope, it works.. haha
guess i've been a lil' bit of a jerk these days. haha. lol.. sleeping in class, givin freakin attitude to teachers. gosh, what am i doing? alright, maybe there are causes to these actions. but currently its not important. laughs.. all that matters now is that i understand the things that i've done, and am tryin to change them. haha. but sometimes the teachers can really be very bias! that's what i can't stand, and that's one of the triggers that brings up the attitude that i give. i mean it. well, just 2 more months and i'm outta that place. and the only time i'll be back is when people call me back, or when i'm going there for thumbs up.. haha..
Alright, i'll update again later, if anything happens that is. haha.. i seriously feel better now.

just woke up from an afternoon nap. gosh. its been so long since i slept in the afternoon. and it was good. haha. *yawn* haha. guess i kinda feel asleep while listening to Canon in D, the rock version. you wonder how i can sleep by listening to that eh? haha. well. different songs have different effects on me at different times of my day. haha. depends on how i'm feeling..
------------
ever wondered something? did you guys ever consider heaven coming to earth instead of we going to heaven? whenever we say His kingdom is coming, do we really know where does coming refer to? when we pray "thy kingdom come" did we ever consider heaven on earth? what if God really wants to place heaven back on earth, just like in ancient times, before Adam and Eve sinned against God. maybe this was the reason why he sent Jesus down to earth, aside from payin for ours sins, maybe He wanted us to have a taste of Heaven before judgement. never thought of it yeah?

argh! crap! i messed up in my EL O level oral! for God's sake, to do this kinda thing in this kinda situation. Jeez! hmm. ok lah, maybe i didn't reall mess up. but, hah. let me just tell you the story.
basically, i was more or less prepared in the morning. but not over confident of myself. i was like, alright, bring it on, i'm gonna do this man! so, i was reading fluently for the morning preparations, fluently for the preparation just before the exam itself, but when i stepped into the room, hit the seat, opened my mouth and got the ball rollin', things started to go wrong. i missed a few words while reading, then missed my fluency. gosh! i was too nervous! turd! crap! wahahaha! forget it.
now the only thing i can do to change it is Pray, Declare and Intercede for myself in this exam. Claim that in the name of Jesus my results will be good results. for his glory! in Jesus name.

why this post? wouldn't it be nice if once in a while there was a tribute post? so here it is.
thanks guys, for lending aid when i needed. for the listening ear when i had problems. my greatest thanks to u all. God Bless You guys..
oh yeah, talking about remembering the times. [from left: Joadine(DaJie), Me, Jasper] haha. they are the ones, the spiritual side. not to say that the rest aren't spiritual. but the things that they say, the advice they give me, lean more to the spiritual side. haha. nope, they're not attached to each other. (wonder if they'll kill me if they see this xD, i can just imagine. "how could u even think that we're attached?! haha. just joking.) thanks to the both of you, Dajie n Jasper.
now, what do we have here. the important figures, 3 people from the left. [Ben, Me, Keith] now, this is the best combo that i've ever seen. nope, they're not gay! i'll kill you if u even think that. haha. jk. they're the funniest, most crappiest brothers with the ears to listen that i've ever found. thank God for them. here's a closer view. haha. with Keith having a better hairstyle. thanks bros, for all the laughter and the listening ear. [P.S. the above picture was taken before Christmas last year]
-----
now, here's Jasper again. with me holding a chopper. look closely, and you'll see it. haha. now if there's one good DotA 2v2 combo, that's me n him. haha. the spiritual advise giver, the one that tells jokes where you needa think before you get it. Jasper. haha.
oh yes. last but not least, haha. i didn't put you here becuz u were small sized either. my sister, Min.[the one in white] no, not actual sister, Sister in Christ. used to share most of the secrets with her. haha. another one who gives me advice. great gal. singer, shopping addict(LOL?) and the one that produced this blogskin. haha. thanks min!

yeah. i got it. hmm. after walking around queensway, far east plaza and pacific plaza. got it from 77th street, the bracelet.. lol. yeah.
had a great bbq session at my cg leader's place just now. and for once, the whole cell was there, inclusive of koh's dog "rex" and his wife and his two friends. so, like sat around the table, talked crap and loads of stuff like that. including playin with the dog, which kept licking me, and grabbin my leg and arm, which was very ticklish. fun. lol. then after that me, keith and ben went playing with the swings. lol.. haha.. re-living our childhood days. haha.
------------
alright. i did it. that's outta my life forever. this day i casted out the spirit of bitterness, fear and of my late mom from within me. why? cuz it needed to be done. i also recognised i was like the songbird, who kept singing to God, until one day it became too famous, and stopped singing for God but for the people. instead of doing what it was supposed to do, sing for God every morning. so i repented, nearly moved to tears when my dad told me all this. now, i walk the earth once more, a free man, but bought by the blood of Christ, i'm free, but i'm His. and i love it.

well well. what have i done? lol! nothing. absolutely nothing at all. hmm. maybe not. gosh, quit talking to yourself. lol. you're doing it again. gee wiz!
ok, now that we've gone thru da appetizer, i'll be bringin ya for da main course. -.-"
hmm. i found something else that i wanna get, and i maybe am gonna get it tomorrow. haha. one black tribal steel ring from 77th street. haha. that'was found when i was walking around jurong point with Jem, i was actually lookin for a bracelet, or maybe 2, haha, which i still am lookin for.
hmm. i came to address something serious today.
seriously, is life all about evangelism? is it totally about bringing people to the saving knowledge of Christ? well. partially, but isn't the first thing to do Love your God with all your strength and all your might instead of bring the people to Christ with all your strength and all you might? c'mon man, we're to have an intimate relationship with the Father, not to have an all wonderful record of people you've brought to Christ.
okay, don't get me wrong. i didn't say that evangelism isn't important. but God didn't want us to be doing it all our lives did he? He wanted to let us sit back, relax and bask in His presence.
Personally, i think that people have limits too. they'll explode if people tell them to do things every single day, let alone evangelism. i mean, that's what i'll do if i get it too much of my cell leader. *Thanks God that his cell leader isn't such a nag* now i'm wondering if my cell leader is looking here.. haha.. right. when i become a CG leader, i don't think i'm gonna pressure my people to go evangelising everywhere they go. haha. i guess i'll be stressing more on having an intimate relationship with Him instead. haha..
well that's it. my sharing for the night. haha. digest that, keep it in mind, think thru it. haha.. and relac one korner!

hmm.. i've been researching the hours i've done for Thumbs Up, since i need it for my CIP points, and the teacher said she trusts me with the amount of hours i'm gonna give her tml, well, what can i do? i ain't gonna fake any hours. so, the total amount of hours done for Thumbs Up since the beginning of this year, not including the trainings, is 46hrs and 45mins. woah! that's alot of hours. nwo one would just wish he'd calculated the hours since last year. haha. Thumbs Up, i'm glad to be of service! hmm, that should be more directed to the people that i reached out to thru the programme. haha. 3 cheers & 3 cheers & 3 cheers for Thumbs Up! hip-hip-hurray!! lol.
i suddenly realised i got an addiction to Photoshop cs, and Scott Kelby's books. haha.. to me, that's great. don't worry, i'm looking after my studies too.. =)

Down and Dirty tricks for Adobe Photoshop CS! the thing that i've been looking for. so i picked it up and i went home. haha.. got until 5 september to finish with it. but i feel like owning it myself, cuz somehow or rather i know that i ain't that good in remembering stuff. the above picture is made by me!.. yeah!!.. looks professional ain't it, alright, maybe i used too many effects for the background. haha. but its a good first try. haha..

YISS Coke and Mentos
this is the video. my classmates and me doing the coke + mentos thing.

8/14/2006 09:52:00 PM
i did something stupid all in the name of fun today. knowing that coke reacts with mentos to give rise to some kinda reaction (what in the world did i just say?), my classmates and i tried it out. bought a bottle of coke, and a roll of mentos. and dropped the whole roll of mentos into the bottle of coke. guess what, it fumed. coke came gushing outta the bottle, but it was temporary joy, not what we expected. it happened for like a few seconds and it was over. sigh, try again next time.. haha..
------------------------
still thinkin, i'm still thinking. just considering whether or not to let it pass or to settle it right here right now.. never thought something like that could be in my mind for so long. i'd usually just blow it over. but why now? why this problem? a lil' help would be appreciated, if your really willing, if your free, msn or phone call would be good.

rain down on me, rain down on me. these words resounded through hall10 of expo, as i was kneeling and feeling the touch of God, of the Holy spirit, just giving me life hope, new life, like as though i God was bringing me through a whole new transformation, like the restoration of my heart soul and body. tears flowed down, and i was there, unable to do anything else but bask in the presence of God as words of thanks to God came repeatedly out of me. Thank you Lord. Rain down on me, rain down on me, here in your presence i am free, pour out like rain, come touch me again, Lord let your presence fall on me......
-------------------------
lookin back at my life. and thinking. that was what i was doing on the bus ride home just now. thinking, thinking of what? of the church leaders, the way the work, the things some of them do, how they look at me, thinking of my friends, thinking of my life. of how i always wanted to be different, and now God granted me that, that difference, and i just sometimes feel that i wanna be the same, the same as others, the same way that they're treated, the same games they play, the same lives that they live. but i appreciate the way i am now, this difference, this difference that God gave to me, how i am now. after all, its what makes me who i am, its how God made me to be. after all, its a gift to be different, and although i sometimes have these feelings, i like to be the way i am, i like the different way that i work. i like what God's given to me. i like how i'm made. i like being me. and i doubt i'll have any regrets.

alright, way ta go! its round 2 of the Planetshakers Ultraviolet Party! but not after a day of Ultimate Frisbee at sentosa!
well, i actually intended not to participate in the frisbee games due to my leg, which was feeling slightly uncomfortable. but, i couldn't stand sitting down there watching my team get thrashed and do nothing when i can do something about it. so i did, i went it, told Adrain Yang, the team leader, that i could play and off i went, haha. so, my team won 2 games after that, getting us both into the quarter finals and the semi finals. then we had a match for either 3rd of 4th placing, in which we lost the last two matches, placing us in 4th place. sigh, defeat, but alas, it was a great game played.
right after, my cell group headed for home, then meeting again at clementi to go down to EXPO for the 2nd day of the Planetshakers Ultraviolet Party. and once again, it proved to be awesome. though they placed the same songs as the day before, it was a totally different feel, this was cuz we were at the back of the hall this time. yeah, got my Cds autographed! yup. then we headed for supper at Panjang Plaza.
a very nice thing happened just now. after supper, me and keith went back by catching a cab, cuz like all the buses were already off service. when we got into the cab, we were greeted by this really nice cabdriver. who treated us to nice classic (as in olden classic, not classical classic) music while driving, and at the same time joking about how he'd like to play music to keep his spirits up during the drive. or rather, to prevent himself from falling asleep too. haha. really nice fella the guy was. God really Bless the guy. =)
right, service and the long awaited Carl's Jr. tomorrow!. at last! right, signin off!

damn, this is like the 3rd time i'm typin this post, gosh, it keeps disappearing whenever i hold the shift button and highlight the whole thing. darn. blogger testin my patience man.
ytd 09/08 was national day, so i was kinda out for the whole day, cuz you see, my school had its own celebration in the morning, then i spent like 3hrs in a lan shop, playing lan with my classmates. then i went to meet ben and melvin to panjang to take bus down to Frans' house for the actual National Day Parade. the place was packed man, full of people who were camping there to watch the fireworks come outta the national stadium for the last time. and i tell ya those fireworks were freakin cool man!. and what's better is that we caught it all on video, special thanks to melvin. around this time i caught a flu, and was debating with myself whether it was caused by too much coke intake or too little sleep.
so, this is what happened today, woke up, after 15hrs of sleep, and still felt tired. but hey, gotta get up and do stuff rite. so i did, went to trim my hair, then went to bugis to meet Dajie and Jasper, for what? for a simple reason, Shopping!! yeah. i love shopping. haha.. or rather, we were actually there to hunt for jasper's b'dae present, which we eventually got, a black jacket. yup, and even had time to go walkin around bugis village and try shoes and buy a shirt for myself. got this one from Freshbox, and there, a peculiar event happened.
this is how it goes, while i was gonna pay for my shirt, guess what i saw, an FCBC Youthnet band, one of those red ones which says [FCBC Youthnet @ EXPO Sunday 1.30] yup. so i asked the cashier, are you from there? he said "nope, but someone left it here, so we're like helpin you guys promote. haha." i gave him a smile and laughed too. yup. so that's kinda what happened today. Planetshakers concert tomorrow!! WE GONNA SHAKE THE PLANET!!!!!!!

right, this is 3 days worth of posting.
Day 1 - Friday
went down to Thumbs Up centre with Ben supposedly to print shirts. in the end, i found myself unable to tolerate the smell of the latex fabric paint. therefore getting another headache. haha, at least i found the cause of my headache the last time. =) in the end ben printed his shirt, and the both of us sat there thinkin of designs for Jasmin's shirts. then printed them, on turned out super nice, the other was on the other extreme. after which we were like doing push-ups. haha. yup. that's day 1.
Day 2 - Saturday
Watched a movie [Click] at jurong point, once again spent alot of time in Toys R Us. the movie was nice. it was about life, and what would happen if you were able to skip portions of your life that you didnt like for a moment. with humour. nice. rated 6/10.
Day 3 - Today.
today was kinda boring. was seriously expecting a trip down to Carl's Jr. but in the end didn't. haha.. so i was like seriously starving for the whole return trip from EXPO. haha.. i didn't feel myself today. kinda down, not too sure why. plus i've been on a defiance streak these few days. with no reason why either. i guess its the stress from O lvls, no where to go, comes out in this form. haha.. yes, i'm watching myself, placing myself in control. sigh. ain't easy. but its gotta be done.
yup. that's it. 3 days worth of posting. the end. enjoy your next week.
National day holidays, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurday.
Planetshakers concert, Friday and Saturday, 7.30pm EXPO Max Pavillion.

after going to plaza singapura, gettin myself both a Darth Vader Lego keychain and the Planetshakers [Arise] Cd, i met up with keith at City Hall, then proceeded to paya lebar. thr we walked around the post office building, or rather just the fairprice at the basement level while waiting for ivan and melvin to arrive. at the bus stop, we found a lost peiqi, or rather the lost peiqi found us, haha, and since she was also heading in the same direction she decided to tag along.
So, this is what happened at the Global Cities Youth Convention. during worship, i felt a strong presence of God, a light feeling of extreme happiness and nearly broke into tears, i kinda felt that God was lookin down from heaven at me with a big smile on his face. like God tellin me again that i'm his child. yup, at that moment i was smiling, and worshipping at the same time. haha. truly an awesome, rejuvenating experience.
the convention displayed the reconciliation of different nations, China and Japan for example. and the uniting of all the asian nations as one body of Christ. it was great, truly great. indeed its a joy to see so many people come together in unity, together as one worshipping the one king of kings, lord of lords. i'm touched by the experience, i learnt that forgiveness is one of the steps to achieving greater heights and also a key to unlocking the blessings of Christ. i've also learnt that unity is such a geat thing. indeed, Unity and Forgiveness.
