Ladies and Gentlemen.

         God has been great to me these days. I am thankful. =)

         SPM is next week, FINALLY. I cannot wait till the last paper, which is Chemistry.

         I am looking forward to the things after SPM. Although am not excited for prom. Who knows why.

         The title of this post is irrelevant to what is written in this short post. Lol maybe because my current template is
         green. So is the picture. Stewie is my new bodyguard! Looking so adorable while holding his laser beam.
         Okay, I’ve finally lost my mind here. It’s probably the exam fever coming along. Also, because I’m graduating
         from high school soon! No more library visits with Pui Yung and co. anymore. =( Speaking of which, I’m off to the library now. Start praying, and praying, and praying.

Yeahh, honestly speaking, I really do miss it these days. Some people may think I might not, but actually I really do – but since my studies were a little bit off balanced at that time, I had to take an early leave even before E&A day.

How can I not miss it? Despite a few certain stuff about BB, it has always been a part of what I did for the past few years. So seeing the members at times when I pass by the church on Saturday afternoons the past few months, it felt nostalgic. Yeah, though BB was not a bed of roses at times, it has helped me opened up my mind. Let’s say it just gave me a much wider view of things.

Ahhh how I really miss it.

I was talking to Ben earlier on MSN. It’s around 12.40am now, and since he’s in New Zealand, his time zone is around 4-5 hours ahead, therefore bringing me to the question of why he was online at such an hour of the day.

Me:  You’re online so damn early in the morning. What’s wrong with you? Lol
Ben: Errr don’t you know?. Considering the rise in girls attention to vampires due to the movie twilight, I‘ve decided to become a vampire.
Me: Just so you know, you ain’t Edward Cullen potential. Haha
Ben: To you lah. But to others who know. I mean I look in the mirror and ii fall in love man. Hahahahahahah
Me: So you can see your reflection, therefore you’re not a vampire. Hahaha
Ben: Damn.
Me:  Besides if you were a vampire and you’re not suppose to see your own reflection… I don’t know what you would be falling in love with in the first place. Lol
Ben: …..

THE theme song. I can listen to this song a thousand times, and not get sick of listening to it. I love this song ; very much. One Tree Hill is my source for good music.

Sweet Silver Lining by Kate Voegele

I’m going home
Downhearted and hoping
I’m close to some new beginning
I know
There’s a reason for everything
That comes and goes

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I’m just surviving
I may be weak but I’m never defeated
And I’ll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining

Most days
I try my best to put on a brave face
But inside
My bones are cold and my heart breaks
But all the while
Something is keeping me safe
And alive

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I’m just surviving
I may be weak but I’m never defeated
And I’ll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining

I wont give up like this
I will be given strength
And now that I’ve found it
Nothing can take that away

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I’m just surviving
I may be weak but I’m never defeated
And I’ll keep believing

But so many people are looking to me
To be strong and to fight
But I’m just surviving
I may be weak but I’m never defeated
And I’ll keep believing
In clouds with that sweet silver lining

I was just dropping by a friend’s blog, and he posted up this from an email. Some of you have probably already seen/read it before – but I’m posting this up anyway!

Beauty of Math!

1 x 8 + 1 = 9

12 x 8 + 2 = 98

123 x 8 + 3 = 987

1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876

12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765

123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654

1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543

12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432

123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11

12 x 9 + 3 = 111

123 x 9 + 4 = 1111

1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111

12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111

123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111

1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111

12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111

123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

9 x 9 + 7 = 88

98 x 9 + 6 = 888

987 x 9 + 5 = 8888

9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888

98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888

987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888

9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888

98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn’t it?
And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1

11 x 11 = 121

111 x 111 = 12321

1111 x 1111 = 1234321

11111 x 11111 = 123454321

111111 x 111111 = 12345654321

1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321

11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321

111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321

Now, take a look at this…

101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to GIVE OVER 100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%?
What equals 100% in life?

Here’s a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:

If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

If:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

And:

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But:

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:

L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D

12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%

Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close,

and Attitude will get you there,

It’s the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Ohh. Prom & SPM is coming soon! Look’s like I have a date for prom. THIS IS HILARIOUS!

I really love the song Oceans will Part by Hillsongs United. I’ve stepped down from the President post of CU a couple of weeks ago. Despite that, what my teacher said was true. You will step down from a post, but you will not step down from being God’s follower. As long as we follow His way, we are still the Followers Of Christ ; F.O.C.

There are the signs today. We’re all just simply waiting for it to come true.

Oceans will Part by Hillsongs United.

If my heart has grown cold
There Your love will unfold
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
When I’m blind to my way
There Your Spirit will pray
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand

Oceans will part nations come
At the whisper of Your call
Hope will rise glory shown
In my life Your will be done

Present suffering may pass
Lord Your mercy will last
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
And my heart will find praise
I’ll delight in Your way
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand
As You open my eyes to the work of Your hand

Cartoons. SWEEETTT old cartoons that I used to watch when I was…6-7 years old (it went all the way till the end of primary school!).

- The Flintsones, The Jetsons, The Addams Family, Top Cat, Scooby Doo, Perils of Penelope Pitstop, Little Lulu, Dexter’s Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls, Tom & Jerry, Akazukin Cha Cha (otherwise known as The Magical Princess) and who knows what other cartoons I had watched when I was a small child.

Wow, they do NOT show MOST of the shows above anymore! What a real shame. If only I could watch them again. You Tube doesn’t really have all of the shows. Only the introduction theme songs. I know, I know. But it’s really good to feel young again! When all you do is just to come back from school to watch television, not worrying about studying and….more studying.

Gotta say, I really miss watching these cartoons. =) Yups, I was a real couch potato back then ; and still one today! Now, back to 90210…

A series called Family Guy. An example of a little toddler annoying his mother and running away after that. =)

Here’s another video, it’s hilarious! Friends theme lyrics I never really knew of. Hahaha

Ahh the joys of baking. =) You would feel happier once you actually accomplish something on your own. Don’t worry too much, it’s not some poisonous pastry. I had some last night, and I still feel good today. It’s proof enough since I am the guinea pig. You know, it’s really easy to bake eggtarts. All you need are eggs, butter, and sugar for the pastry – egg yolk only, butter, sugar and milk for the egg custard – and voila! You have the eggtarts. =) Yes, I have a fetish for all the pastries these days ; especially egg tarts. And also for Subway’s chocolate chip cookies!

Hmmm so far, my trial results have been satisfactory. SO FAR only, but the rest is yet to come. So, until then!

Here’s a dilemma ; prom is clashing with Youth camp this year. But then again, I’m dateless for prom. So I am not that sure. Aihks.

So, Greg’s in London! He left exactly 7 days ago. Hope you’re doing great over there! And that you’ll be able to learn how to do your own laundry as well. But then again, you’re coming back in December anyway. =)

Another thing, I’ve found a song which I heard of when I was in Primary 5. If I’m not mistaken, it was one of those FBC’s celebration thing, and a whole group of us small kids were dancing to that song. =) Those were the days!

Shackles (Praise You) by Mary Mary.

Whoo!
It sure is hot out here
Ya know?
I don’t mind thought
Just glad to be free
Know what I’m saying, uh!

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
(What’cha wanna do?)
I just wanna praise you
(Yeah, yeah)
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
(Uh feel me?)
And I’m gonna praise you
(What’cha gon do?)
I’m gonna praise you

In the corners of mind
I just can’t seem to find a reason to believe
That I can break free
Cause you see I have been down for so long
Feel like the hope is gone
But as I lift my hands, I understand
That I should praise you through my circumstance

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you

Everything that could go wrong
All went wrong at one time
So much pressure fell on me
I thought I was gon lose my mind
But I know you wanna see
If I will hold on through these trials
But I need you to lift this load
Cause I can’t take it anymore

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you

Been through the fire and the rain
Bound in every kind of way
But God has broken every chain
So let me go right now

Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
I just wanna praise you
I just wanna praise you
You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
And I’m gonna praise you
I’m gonna praise you

I haven’t really touched my guitar in a very long time. So, I decided to take my guitar and started playing a few songs just to take a break from my socalled “studying”. Anyways, I was reading a story for my devotion time, and I kind of got inspired to compose a song. Let’s just say I was pretty amazed with the story I read, and the guitar was just a few metres away from me. Took it up and just strumed some chords. It’s not a really extremely good song or anything, and it is not that long either, but it will do for me. =)

It’s about how God really assures you to go on, despite things happening which could really pull your mood down. Whenever you just start to doubt, the smallest things will light up your day once again. A big thanks to that story I read.

My Person.

He’s my refuge, He is my strength
He’s my Savior, He is my all
He’s my roadmap, He is my guide
And I can’t live without you, my Lord.

Ohhh….I’m so amazed
My life You’ve changed

You are my only person
You are the only one who ever gave me
Everything that I need
You’ve brought me, close to Your way
And gave me the joy in my life.
