JOSEPH'S PRAYER
by Max Lucado

Nothing stirs so many questions as does the birth of Christ. The innkeeper too busy to welcome God-did he ever learn who he turned away? The shepherds-did they ever hum the song the angels sang? The wise men who followed the star-what was it like to worship a toddler? And Joseph, especially Joseph. I've got questions for Joseph.

What was he thinking while Jesus was being born? He'd done all he could do-he'd made Mary as comfortable as she could be in a barn and then he stepped out. She'd asked to be alone, and Joseph has never felt more so.

In that eternity between his wife's dismissal and Jesus' arrival, what was he thinking? He walked into the night and looked into the stars. Did he pray?

I wonder what he said …

This isn't the way I planned it, God. This doesn't seem right. What kind of husband am I? I provide no midwife to aid my wife. No bed to rest her back. Her pillow is a blanket from my donkey. My house for her is a shed of hay and straw.

Did I miss something? Did I, God?

You've stood where Joseph stood. Caught between what God says and what makes sense. You've done what he told you to do only to wonder if it was him speaking in the first place. You've stared into a sky blackened with doubt.

If you are asking what Joseph asked, let me urge you to do what Joseph did. Obey. That's what he did. He obeyed when the angel called. He obeyed when Mary explained. He obeyed when God sent.

Just like Joseph, you can't see the whole picture. Just like Joseph your task is to see that Jesus is brought into your part of your world. And just like Joseph you have a choice: to obey or disobey. Because Joseph obeyed, God used him to change the world.

Can he do the same with you?

yeah! thank God for sustaining me through the day today:D
we had unit outing today! haha. at east coast. felt weird to be going to vj bus stop without going to school. strange indeed. hahha. and yeah! i started my new year resolution today. not to be late:D *grInz*
bad stamina. hahaa. haven't exercised for a long time. played a little bit of captain's ball and i nearly died. so intriguing. but east coast sure was nice today:D realised that if u lie on the grass and look towards the beach, you can't see the sand and it'll seem as though the world consists of only the grass and the sky. very nice:D
and kyeng wai joined us today! so cool. hahha. we played monkey today too. think everyone became a monkey at least once. hahhaa:D
then we went for lunch at mandarin gardens:D *grInz* try the glass noodles (?) salad...quite nice:D unique taste it has. tried lots of other dishes too. hahaha. basically shared our food around. the beef fried rice that jitsy tried doesn't have much of a taste, the horfun that was bought looked quite delicious... hahaha:D
yepz:D then went with jits, yixiu, sengkim and kyeng wai to the library. hahaha:D actually i wanted to go to the library, but these pple were kind enough to accompany me. yeah! thank God for them! hahaha.
jits left soon after. and the rest of us stayed to
1) study
2) read books
3) sleep
4) surf the net
5) talk nonsense
yup:D got to know yixiu and kyeng wai more today. interesting people:D *grInz*
wellus. enjoyed myself today...fellowshipping with the unit pple:D hahaha:D going for interview tmr for chinese teacher job at north vista sec. wonder how it'll go:)

gosh. it's 3.07am. heyhey! (like carrie in the xmas drama) nice number;)
hahaha.
i'm blogging 'cos i just breathed in a nice small gust of fresh night air that wafted in through the window and makes me wanna sing
-as i breathe in Your breath of life that fills my heart
You are my all consuming fire!-
hahha. as a habit, i like to flip through my old entries and see how my views were different from last time till now...oh. i think i'm thinking less now. haha. or maybe there isn't so much to ponder about anymore..'cos a lot of things are already settled. especially about life.
but of course, there are still multiple question marks that can't really be answered till the future comes. and i'll leave all those question marks to the future to be thought about.
oooh. the night air smells delicious. i can just sit here and continue drinking it all in.
oh. but i dun think it's a good thing to do. hahaha. shall write cards and talk to God and talk to God and write cards.
saw priscilla and her sheep just now while buying paper. hahahaha:D i was just choosing paper when she suddenly turned her head towards me and peered and gave me a shock. hahaa. seeing Hope pple eVerYwhErE. so cool:D
i'm going to do a major renovation of my room soon! yesh. if i ever get the whole pile of mess out, that is.

yeah. changed my template. newest template style. hahaha:) give comments pls.

today is my last day of work at the bakery. i quitted my job! feels odd not to work there anymore. hahahah:D told the chefs i'll pop in on sat and say hi. hahaha. and the yong tau fu auntie still wants to give me discount. yeah!
quitted the job because of a few reasons:
1) it's giving me a lack of sleep. reach home at around 11.15-11.30pm. then go online, do stuff, read books, sleep at 2-3am. wake up at 7.15am if there's morning shift. then the whole day do things again. as a result, i've been sleeping for only about 3-4 hrs a day. worse than school! hahaha.
2) pressure from mum telling me that she heard that the boss is very ke4 bo2 and she doesn't want me to work there anymore
3) unattractive pay
4) washing trays everyday has made my hands very dry:P so sad. and i sprained my finger. hahaha. hahaha. hahaha.
5) too little time for God. i wanna spare up more time to serve God. yes.
yeah...a little sad though. 'cos thomas and billy (the chefs) were going to teach me how to make cakes!!! ahhhh. been talking abt it since last week. and uncle (the old chef with 40+ yrs of experience) has started to joke about the 'nian ji qing qing...' thing. hahaha. and wellus. it was enjoyable talking to them about world stuff.
and i just met michelle and waiyun! was hoping to get to know them better. we click quite well when we first met. hahahaa.
everywhere i go, i leave a bit of me there. hahaha. so intriguing. wellus:)
anyway, the chalet's committee pple went out for steamboat buffet today! yeah! at marina bay! hahahaha.
quite sleepy. i nearly fell asleep serving customers in the afternoon. hahahaha.

yeah:D merry christmas!:D hahaha:D so cool:D
yeah! east christmas party yesterday!:D thank God for joy for doing the planning of the programme flow, for gwen for preparing the food and delaying the people and for everyone to respond and add noise to the party:D hahaha. think the best time was during the gift exchange when everyone mingled together...hahaha:D got gifts from tingting and jiali. thanks! i, on the other hand, forgot all about gift exchange and got nothing for everybody. oh dear. and my christmas cards were still happily sitting in the bag:D
hahaha. wellus:D
got cards too! i love receiving cards 'cos the words speak more loudly to me than the presents. hahaha:D
oh! and we had carolling with the east d guys after that. hahaha. quite funny. at first we got rejected (awwwwwww) by the first two houses we went to, then gradually houses started to invite us in to sing for them and carolling got much more exciting. hahaha:D houses with a lot of people always resparked the spirit of joy in me to sing more enthusiastically for the people. hahaha:D got to know valerie more during carolling too! hahaha. both of us were just admiring the houses and the people and the songs and the funny dogs which kept barking at us. had an enjoyable time talking to her all the way during carolling:D
oh! met this vj girl called marilyn at one of the houses. haha. j1 this yr. intriguing. her parents invited us to eat turkey! and turkey! and more turkey! and ham! and ham! and ribs! hahaha. and drinks! another house gaves us chocs!:D hahaha. yet another house wished us merry christmas personally. so joyful to be able to celebrate it all together even when we don't know each other... but as long as we all love Jesus, we're all brothers and sisters, we're all in this universal family that bonds us together under God's love:D
yeah!:D then went to gwen's house and plopped onto the sofa to watch tv. hahaha:D can't remember what we watched. what did we watch? cartoons! oh! totally spies. gosh. we were watching tt in the middle of the night? even the guys??? haha. wellus. cool gadgets they have anyway:)
yeah:D then bathed. haha. the guys didn't bathe:P so dirty:P (all except for winstar who bathed today)
played mahjong! no one fed me:P so sad:( hahahaha:D then played cards:D then i can't quite remember. oh yes. watched more tv. stupid tom and jerry show. jerry makes cute noises though:D
then made the decision to go and sleep even when i'm not tired. oh! for the first time for any sleepovers, i'm sleeping on the bed!:D hahaha. with maurise (again).
yeah:D then maurise woke up at 8+ ('cos i said hi to her then went back to sleep:P) and i got the whole bed to myself. hahaha:D cool cool:D btw. we heard funny screams in the middle of our sleep. dennis is suspected.
yeah!:D woke up to more card playing and card writing. hahaha. and watching tv. then we ate drumsticks at gwen's house (left overs from the christmas party!) then went to bedok to eat. then went back to gwen's house and watched Lord of the Rings...extended version! 3 and a half hours. fell asleep for a short while in-between. haahaha:D so sad.
then played more cards. then ate dinner. watched a little bit of nemo, then went home:D yeah! hahaha.
merry christmas!

i just got my one yr late christmas present today! or maybe it's supposed to be my 9 months late birthday present! hahaa:) i've got my own chinese bible! hahah. very cool! got timeline and the type of books they are and got character stuff. better view of how everything goes. i am pleased:D
yeah! and got cards! and more cards! hahaha. i haven't written my christmas cards! hahaha.
it's 2.52am! haha. and i still haven't finished typing out the script, not to say write christmas cards! hahaha. tmr it shall be. yeah!

We are the reason - Avalon

As little children
We would dream of Christmas morn'
Of all the gifts and toys
We knew we'd find
But we never realized
A baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives

We were the reason
That He gave His life
We were the reason
That He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live

As the years went by
We learned more about gifts
The giving of ourselves
And what that means
On a dark and cloudy day
A man hung crying in the rain
All because of love, all because of love

I've finally found the reason for living
It's in giving every part of my heart just to Him
In all that I do every word that I say
I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him

We are the reason
that He gave His life
We are the reason that
He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all that He could give
To show us the reason to live

He is the reason to live....

i really want to thank God for Hope. for the defined structure... for God working through the people, for the people's hearts in really wanting to serve God, for the right doctrines taught, for the ernestness in equipping people with the skills to serve God more, for the accountability system, for the wonderful and genuine fellowship, for the perseverence shown many-a-times by many of the leaders 'cos people matter to God, thank God for the holistic love which is present... really want to thank God for many things.
there was a question i kept wondering. i wondered why i didn't come to know God earlier in my life. and i realised that if i did, i wouldn't have come to know God in Hope of God. wouldn't have come to meet my wonderful brothers and sisters. hahaa:)
God has the perfect plan for me. He knew what i needed. and He knew what is best for me. and in His timing, things are fulfilled.
typing out script for east christmas party tmr! hahaha. script done in 30++ mins:D proud of it. hahaha:D thank God for alvin and all his creative ideas.
anyway. carolling tmr! service today was great! brilliant rendition of the angel medley by avalon. very cool! very pro. hahaha:D to my untrained ears it was very cool anyway. i'm sure professionals would applaud to it too:)
play today was very nicely presented too! i love the style. very creative. hahahaha.
yes. anyway. carolling tmr! hahaa. and before tt is the east christmas party. so exciting!:D hahha.
oooh. the executive committee of celebrate christmas in singapore has decided to play the theme of 'Christ is the reason for the season' as the theme for orchard road this yr. very nice! they had booklets explaining what christmas is really about (about Christ!:D) and a display of the christmas story with pple posing up as shepherds and roman soldiers. hahaha:)

this is my 1147th entry and gosh. let me blog about work.
my two colleagues quitted! so sad. irene was in her uniform at 12pm talking to her friends(she only starts her shift at 2pm) and the boss saw and scolded her saying tt she shan't wear her uniform and talk and what-nots and something about quitting(which i can't remember) so these two girls went to quit their jobs and now it's left with me O_o and phylin (at least tt's how i think her name should be spelt). and phylin is actually the person who works the roster. gosh. i feel like quitting in this christmas season. to spend more times planning out things. no time no time!
but if i quit, then it's phylin ALONE. feels quite bad right? hahahah.
alas.

frm jOy'S blog:

A GREAT STORY......

Isn't it amazing how God works in our lives! On a Saturday night several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided to call is wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer he phone. The pastor let it ring many times. He thought it was odd that she didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.

The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night.The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night. The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about. Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer." The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.

The man said, "That's OK. Let me tell you my story. You see, I was so depressed, and down that night, I was seriously planning to commit suicide. Before I did, I prayed, 'God if you really do exsist out there, give me a sign now.' At that point my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to answer!"

The reason why it showed on the man's caller ID that the call came from "Almighty God" is because the church that the pastor was calling from is called "Almighty God Tabernacle"!!

That's God...

Have you ever been just sitting there and all of a sudden you feel like doing something nice for someone you care for...THAT'S GOD ... he talks to you through the Holy Spirit.

Have you ever been down and out and nobody seems to be around for you to talk to...THAT'S GOD ...He wants you to talk to him.

Have you ever been thinking about somebody that you haven't seen in a long time and then next thing you know you see them or receive a phone call from them...THAT'S GOD...there is no such thing as "coincidence."

Have you ever received something wonderful that you didn't even ask for, like money in the mail, a debt that had mysteriously been cleared, or a coupon to a department store where you had just seen something you wanted, but couldn't afford...THAT'S GOD...he knows the desires of your heart...

Have you ever been in a situation and you had no clue how it is going to get better, but now you look back on it...THAT'S GOD...he passes us through tribulation to see a brighter day...

wow. finally can settle down for a while and type out a blogger entry!:D yeah! hahahaa:D i feel like a busy person. so odd. it's the holidays!
haha:D
anywayz, had pm at rc today:D yeah!
then learnt how to play G, D(or izzit C)and E minor on the guitar... can't quite remember it now... hmmm. can only remember G. hahaha:D Sara says if i've learnt guitar i can teach her. hahha.
gosh. work. work is sometimes not very appetizing...much prefer office jobs now...though office jobs can be boring:P
wellus. was looking through. see first. think i prefer to do my jobs alone. can't multitask. talk to me while i'm working and i get distracted. alone is good. for working.
and i don't know what a resume looks like. at all.
maybe i shouldn't go and work. this is getting troublesome.
hahaha:D
i miss school! i want to learn and learn and learn. and learn and learn somemore.
yeah!
hahha. so intriguing. went to concourse with sis and jits today...turns out that yun's working at concourse! at american express! hahaha. intriguing.

hey pple!:D anyone who missed getting the ticket to SMU extravaganza can sign up here! yeah!

-heaven is a wonderful place,
filled with glory and grace
i wanna see my Saviour's face!
heaven is a wonderful place-
hahahha:D can't stop singing this song ever since i learnt it from alvin on noah ark's night trip to 7-11:D east chalet is officially over! hahaha. such a great time of fellowship and learning:D
oh! lots of blessings from God too:D hahahaha:D kim's fever was gone after praying for her, and alvin's mum got transferred to a normal ward!
and the weather for mega games day was wonderful! thank God!
think God convicted a lot of our hearts during this east chalet. holding onto the promises! amen!

gosh. just slept for 6 hours after returning from east chalet!:D hahaha.

Investing in a worthwhile cause...

I would rather stumble a thousand times
Attempting to reach a goal,
Than to sit in a crowd
In my weather-proof shroud,
A shriveled and self-satisfied soul.
I would rather be doing and daring
All of my error-filled days,
Than watching and waiting, and dying
Smug in my perfect ways.
I would rather wonder and blunder,
Stumbling blindly ahead,
Than for safety's sake
Least I make a mistake
Be sure, be safe, be dead.

Nov 06

-with all my heart, i long to feel You
with all my soul, i long to seek You-
i vaguely remember singing this song yesterday. haha.
yeah!
the internet is distracting. so i shall blog offline. so strange. typing in notepad now. lots more time i guess.
yeah. met lots of people today. hahaha. went to starhub to study with jits and eesiew and twin. twin went to buy something, came back and said to me 'if i told you who i saw, you won't be sitting here anymore'. hahaha. she saw junting. ah well.
so the four of us went to ka jiao her and sharon (they were having shepherding)...ah well. quite interesting. and then carrie arrived. and we went back to studying. oh. saw a sister called xuelian who arrived too early for pm so invited her to join us. hahaha. saw jason too.
when we were leaving, jt has changed her sheep. haha. mingxiu was there instead. yeah!:D
service was interesting. new songs! hahaha. and we were on our first part of a new series. how exciting!
had c-e-w meeting. very exciting things happening. hahaha:D anyway, met joseph and carrie on the way to the mrt. farnie.
poor jasmine was very sick. hope she'll rest well at home:)
yeah. then went to find steph to pass her her stuff. met this former nanyangal (oh no! i can't remember her name) and someone called jessie (yes. another jessie.)
-i long to hide in the shadow of Your wings-
should i work in december? hmm.

Nov 07

i found another ants' nest...in an uncovered hole left behind due to changing of my windows. how disastrous.
studied with joycelyn at macs today. my sister was supposed to join us but she couldn't wake up:P her mum joined us for a while. haha. quite funny. she bought one whole meal and ate only the burger, leaving the sundae, the drink and fries to us. even bought two apples. healthy living!
hahaha. quite funny.
yeah well. did nyj paper, half of cj's paper, my srj is with jits and more bio stuff. ammonia to nitrites to nitrates. yes. by nitrobacter. izzit? let me check. yes. i'm correct. nitrifying bacteria, of which an example is nitrobacter. then denitrifying bacteria will convert nitrates to nitrogen gas. brilliant creatures.
i can't remember my differential equation, nor can i remember my newton-rhapson (which IS disastrous 'cos it's the only question i can definitely do)
exhausted. hahaha. but joyful:D looking forward to exams:)

Nov 08
ah. studied with twin and jitsy and michael (who took a long time to travel from pasir ris to bukit timah) at bukit timah plaza, at the place beside kfc. hahaa:) quite an empty place...few people seem to venture there. quite a tempting place to eat though...food smells everywhere.
was quite disturbed in the morning over a dream i had...then the HS prompted me to drop it and don't be bothered about it, for as long as i check my own heart constantly and look to God, it would not be an issue at all.
yeah. anyway:) quite cool:D haha.
oh yes. i've developed a phobia of singing. it's all twin and jitsy's fault. they kept laughing whenever i started to sing while listening to the cd that sengkim burned for us. if i never ever sing again, it's because of the both of them. they traumatised me.
hahaha:D
oooh. 2 weeks and 1 day before the end of As! yeah. cool! i think i'll miss studying. so sad.
ah well.

Nov 11
studied with twin and shuyi at kap macs today:) heh. quite a nice place to study, though time was short 'cos i reached there at like 4pm. haha. finished reading 'the cartoon guide to economics' which wasn't very enlightening but proved to be quite interesting.
saw the central e guys. and knew a new person called chewie. hahaha!:D shuyi's friend:D the name's so interesting:)
i haven't bought my slippers and my white shirt. gotta do it tmr.
hmmmm.
hope the uls come back soon. hahaha. then she can get confirmation, so that i can get confirmation from her:)
was at timothy's house on tues and got michael to read to me about guan's msg posted on the tagboard. a formal gathering? hmm. okay.
i'll inform the rest of the teachers and discuss with them or something. dunno how to contact mrs yak though. hahaha.
yeah:D less than 2 weeks before the As end. hahaha. the As are sapping the energy out of me. but it's okay, i can draw strength from God!:D
-there is joy in the Lord
there is love in His Spirit
there is hope in the knowledge of Him
there's a fountain that flows
like a river from heaven
abounding in love to my soul-

Nov 15
one week and three more days to the end of As. hahaha:D
anyway, tried smsing miss lee to ask if the teachers will be able to come, but she said that most of them will most prob be out of the country by the end of the month..so wellus. i still haven't thought of the plans yet. hahaha:D maybe we'll just end up at the steamboat buffet place (yet again! so boring!)
haha. there've been multiple requests for basketball. yeah.
anyway, quite fun these days. swam with jits last wed, then played table tennis with xiangyu and twin (never played with guan.hehehe). twin has the potential. hahaha. i'm losing my touch.
yeah:)
studied yesterday with joycelyn..heh. i think we like to distract each other. then hongyao joined us at 7++.
oh! if u wanna study alone, go to marine parade lib starbucks and kapok the huge sofa there...hahaha. the one near the counter. very nice place to study 'cos the music's just over ur head and it's supremely comfortable and bright and nice smelling and you'll feel cozy, yet in that alert state of mind to enjoy your studying. i shall restructure my room once the aircon and the door comes.
i've just discovered more mini occupants in the same room as i am. hahaha. maybe they'll provide amusement for the cat. thinking of ways to kill the mini occupants though. they seem to like to wander into my room before going out to the living room. how disastrous:)

nov 16
interesting day today.
got out of house at 12.30pm, but reached school at the ultimate late time of 1.45pm. gosh. the bus was dragging its wheels. i thank God i'm not late. just in time to see everyone going up to put their bags. whew.
econs paper today. hahaha. forgot to bring my jacket, but surprisingly didn't freeze to death:D God made the aircon blow at a nice temperature. it was very cold, but it was a very comfortable cold (to me. michelle, who was in the same predicament as me, said she has no blood in her hands for the last essay) and cleared my brains very nicely to think faster. no brain freeze for me. haha.
heh. i wanna share this though i think some people will kill me after i do share it.
i didn't really study a lot for my econs, was actually quite comfortably spotting... actually i didn't even spot. just that somehow or another, i felt no importance in studying for anything else except for the macroeconomic probs and policies and externalities. (of course i read through some of the others...like protectionism and what-nots, but those were only flipped through...) i'm convicted that it's the prompting for the HS and really, guess what came out? hahahaa.
first question was about externalities (totally.), forth question was about national income multiplier (which i know nothing about, except that it's influenced by mpw, which is made up of mps and mpm...know this 'cos it was in the macro prob and policies notes and some other stuff which i've only read once or something dropped into my mind) and fiscal policy(woohoo!), fifth question was about money supply and monetary policy and the last was about macroprobs in Singapore due to a falling exchange rate. i did 4,5 and 6 'cos the first question required more extensive thinking and not a mere regurgitation of the points i've learnt. but really thank God! to have studied a mere portion and have these portions coming out in the exam, i don't know what to say.
actually after properly studying about the macro probs and policies, i do find these questions so much more interesting and more fun to do than the microeconomic problems. those are so... narrow! so boring. macro is so ...case-study!is so... real-life, so intriguing how everything is nicely interwined together. a nice complex network of what happens in the world around us. i am starting to enjoy econs.

Nov18
just watched singapore idol...hehe. i think i'm starting to know why sylvester has a large fanbase...he's very sincere. thought he did 'kiss by a rose' very well..dunno why the judges didn't quite like it except for dick lee. hahaha:D it was superb. the starting was superb anyway. haha. but he's gotta work on his vocals.
and taufik! he seemed a little out-of-sorts today. no idea why though. hmmm. yet the judges seemed to like him. but it's so obvious he's a little out-of-sorts. wellus.
of course, olinda. i support olinda...but guess pple dun seem to like her image. no idea why either O_o people are just strange. ah well:) olinda has a strong voice! she reminds me a tad of fantasia. hah.
yeah! studying bio is so exciting:D hahaha.
oh! saw munbbill and hanjie at bedok library today when me, jits and michael went to study there after cg. heh. didn't even notice them till jits proded me and told me tt they were saying hi to me.
and saw mrs kuan with michelle! hahaha:D as usual, i walked past her and it wasn't till mrs kuan tapped me on the shoulder and jitsy exclaiming 'mrs kuan!' that i realised tt it's her. oops.
delifrance is always a nice place to study. hahaha. and mocha shall be my favourite type of coffee;)

nov19

yeah wellus. i'm talking nonsense here. hahaha. shall go and enjoy my growth and repro notes:D so interesting!
oh. no. i forgot the scientific name of yeast. saccharomyces what? saccharomyces cerensiae. haha. all the funny names which are quite a delight to pronounce.. like. spirogyra. which is an unbranched filamentous green alga. hahaha! i remember! hahaha. nvm. dun mind me. btw, alga is the singular form of algae. yeah. do u noe escherichia coli which lives in our intestines can mulitply up to 20 times per min (or izzit per second? should be per min). so can you imagine the number of e.coli is in ur intestines right now?:D:D:D
thank God we didn't have biotech for option. i'll just be bored to death.
hahaa.

---
awww. so sad. olinda got out:P
she got good vocals. anyone caught her wearing the miniskirt in 'footloose'? hahaa.
anyway. anyway. anyway. jits says tt singapore idol is messed up. i think so too. wellus.
couldn't really study well today. extremely restless. what a waste of time. oh! saw sharon in the macs at toa payoh central while i was looking for a toilet. hahahha.
ohoh!
