Colossians 4:6 "Let your speech be always with grace,seasoned with salt,that ye may know ye ought to answer to every man"
think...pearlyn just called my house about half an hour ago asking for my daddy :
me:"hello.."
p:"oh err...is mr tan wee boon in?"
me:"oh no.."
p:"oh..ok bye"
and just as she said bye, that familiar pitch in her voice struck me and her whole name just burst into my head..."PEArLYN!!!"
ya..haha. i just hope it really wasnt her..sighs. these people just have the tendency to look through the church directory and radomly call people whom they knew,causing shock, terror and sometimes trauma in them. shock, most of the time. i dont know about others, but i was like..oops! is tt Her? hmm..but oh well, i just hope it wasnt her, and that dad will remain safe all the days of his life. :)
another week has passed and ya.still no signs of mugging whatsoever. ive close to given up. i think i'll just picture myself last minute, freaking out trying to cram. but for now, its still peaceful and wasting time..blah blah. seriously dunno what's wrong..absolutely no drive to study at all! was cleaning my room yesterday night again. the table section..and came across all my study scribblings and it dawned upon me that i was actually studying harder, much harder last year than this. guess it was cos i entered this year with the wrong mindset of "ooh! can relax" and apparently, that mindset has stuck so firmly like elephant glue, cant detatch myself from it! all the best to me.
and the second week of term has passed, was sucessfully late everyday again, except wednesday when i was on the dot, but ms baey wasnt even there to take attendance in the end. ran all the way into school today. but that's nohting new. i really really love the new method of running away from councillors! --asking dad to drive past them, alight and make my way to the classroom! hahaha. its because of that that my pass hasnt been confiscated the whole of this week. not once! that's, an achievement.
we had a guest teacher in to class on tuesdae, he's from england i think, and he taught of sth, DIFFERENT from ballet. haha. he made us do isolations, wormy squirms, and told us to envision ourselves as seaweed in the sea, being manipulated as the waves rolled all around. and he demo, and boy was he loose, rubbery and for a moment, i wondered if he had a backbone. anywae, it was rather awkward but fun. we're really not used to such dance movements and he was very satirical towards ballet about all the control and pull up and blah blah, all the opposites of what he wanted.and of course, nth's free on the face of this earth..so 12 bucks it is. i still owe ms ong/veron.
today for pe, we ran one round for warm up, we were all very delighted at the sudden 'break'. but little did we know after 1 round of warm ups, it was 2 sets of 10 sit ups, step ups,arm dips(which i totally cant do) and inclined pull ups, with one round around the track each set,also including to go over the window and also over the wall. first time through, faye very kindly lent her knee to step up for the wall, but on the second time, she gave up and we all had to hike ourselves over by our own means. tt meant 'oh oh'. so there was a lil comedy there, sense of achievement blah blah. i managed too! and feeling very proud of it! of course, not without countless attempts of which all failed but one--(the time i finally succeeded). so i was running running running...Boing!..struggle struggle struggle, like boy boy then lag back onto the ground...run run run, again, then boing up, and onto the groud again. all the time pouncing on the wall trying to get a grip. then i gave up and idza suggested i just jump and dont run so much tried that, and seemed more hopeful. all that time, smashing my elbows onto the wall. untill finally, i jogged a lil, gave a lil bounce and managed to get a grip, but wasnt high enough, then i swung my leg all e wae over the wall, and heaved myself up from there ;) being able to do rond de cuts does help there, but of course it wasnt the most polite sight. good thing there werent many around and even the few lingering, didnt know them. hehe. now the price: sore, bruised elbows and a bruised right knee, and all that pain for nothing, because it wasnt even from that method of running and smashing into the wall tt i managed. haha. and i hate bruises. just healed from one nicely coloured on my arm last week and now two more appear. and tmr going for ballet, i'll look abused again. though not so bad cos the elbows are not a very exposed place. during break, tried to put cold compress by resting both elbows on refilled waterbottles from the water cooling whilst copying/doing maths. but anyhow, my right elbow hurts particularly..oww oww!
todae was pw day again. as usual, due to my optimum level of loathe i have of it, i was feeling pissed and moody again. everything ms tiong seemed to sae felt as if it were directed at my group. as usual, nick came in late and mich was explaining to swee (she wasnt here last wk) what had been feedbacked so far. after her announcements,i went to shit and showed mich the result of my careful preparation of the toilet throne for shitting. *lol* after tt, made me wae baq to class, complained about the need of fd, then swee, mich and i made our wae to kbox, bought tamtam snek ku crackers and sat down in e canteen w ana. then from then on we started talking. and munched down 18 packets of that snack thingy amongst us ;) blame stress. then we chatted and all, and simply didnt care one bit about what was going on in class. i guess ms tiong has totally given up on our group cos, our whole grp was missing, and nick was at some others' group, bumming around, not having a clue where we were. i understand if she begins to hate us, but we cant help it if pw sucks so much you know. :)
then e bell rang, we got up to go baq to calss, trying to look as if we just returned frm e com lab or library or any other place studious, drained frm hard labour. the next funny thing was, as we walked in my the back door, she walked out the front and didnt see us. super cartoon!!
as much as i dont like pw, i like the bumming around nature of it, or rather e fact tt its more relaxed so we can bring food in, walk around sch and blah blah..
and somehow, im always extra crazy and happy on fridays. cept tt todae wasnt quite full swing..
was reading through the bible two nights ago (i admit havent been frequent on qt this wk) and realised theres so many beautiful verses, that i jotted it down in my hw book to remind me but i realise i hardly open tt book in school. i need a guide book which refers to all the verses of the bible concerning all topics...
1Thessalonians 5:18 " In everything give thanks:for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
going to seletar tomorrow night! i CANT wait!!!!! its been a whole 2 wks since i was there eating nasi lemak under the stars :)
Take the quiz: "WHAT'>http://www.zenhex.com/quiz.php?id=1257">"WHAT RELIGION BESTS SUITS YOU?"
Average Christian
You're not going to become a minister anytime soon, but you do your best to live your life in a Christian way. This means that although you probably don't attend church every Sunday, you do your best to follow the Ten Commandments, help the needy and generally be an all around good person. Who needs to follow the entire bible anyways? It was written ages ago, and Christ transmuted it by giving his life.
