Freedom but most of all, thankfulness to HIM

The last day of our sem 5 end of semester exams finished yesterday at 4.30 pm at mph 1-3. :) and i am officially free from today till june the 9th. no more late nights for me... well, at least no more late nights studying and studying.. but mayb late nights watching tv.. series, spending time with my family.. or just some personal time for myself .. :) oh.. the bliss of it.. and today is just the beginning! :) wheeee.. :)

time really passes fast.. i stil remember the first day i stepped into imu.. more than two years ago, i even remember the day i sent in the registration application and the day i went for the interview... and now.. i thought sem 1-3 passed in a blink of an eye.. but it seemed to me that sem 4-5 passed even quicker before me even realizing it... and now that finals are over, it seems that there is not much reason for us to go back to imu... unless of course.. we miss the elabs or any other thing too much.. not forgetting the lecturers.. :) lol..

i must say i'm really blessed for such good friends.. in imu and also other close friends.. during this whole study break.. i felt really stressed... worn out.. sometimes to the point that i felt was really my limit.. !! the day before finals... sunday morning in church.. God sent an 'angel' to talk to me and cheer me up.. the angel was in the form of a friend! it was really nice talking to him... and at night.. when i was almost going to bed.. another 'angel' called to cheer me up and gave me tips to de-stress myself! he asked me to imagine him as a ballerina in a tutu! lol.

the papers were quite okay.. i'm really thankful that i got through them. It wouldn't be okay if it was not because of HIM. really felt thankful.. there were times while i was doing the paper that i really panicked... (heart beating fast, hands full of cold sweat, time running out, brain freeze) really thankful that He assured me He was there and i could do it.. and suddenly i felt myself calming down. I couldn't have done it without HIM. I have to admit tat yesterdays PP paper was quite tough though.. confusin, mind boggling. but i honestly hope the results will be okay.. have to wait till 14th of april though...

these are the fruit smoothies my mum made specially for me the few mornings that i waked early to study before the exam started at 9.30 am. so sweet of her... *melts*


blended mango and kiwi and green apples and orange :) see the kiwi seeds?? :)


dragon fruit, apples and orange.. :) it's really nice.. helps promote bowel movement too *winkz* especially if taken first thing in the morning, after brushing teeth of course! :)


till then, i plan to spend as much time as i can with my family, reading as many novels, watching as many movies/ series, swimming, learning as many piano pieces as i can... and of course spending time with my friends.. and HIM. :)

Too many things to handle

Dad got admitted the hosp this morning. mum went with him.. he had not been feeling too well these few days and i was worried. even on his birthday last sun, 1st march he was not well. we couldn't carry out the plans we had for his birthday... honestly.. i'm worried..

Tried studying for eos this morning.. but couldn't concentrate. I hope that God will help. can only depend on HIM now.. eos in in two weeks plus time... alot to study.. and too much to absorb..
plus tomorrow is the hospital attachment.. bit gan jiong.. dunno what to expect.. plus the fact that i'm quite blur most of the time.. :(

Help me Lord.

PP2 test finally over...

its monday and pp2 test is finally over.. this is the second pp2 test.. i improved.. but.. felt it was stil not good enough.. :( during the feedback right after the test.. we discussed the answers.. many ques i felt i was correct (i had my reasons of course) but Mr david said it was wrong.. :( haih... during the first feedback for the pp2 test.. he told us we over-analysed many of the ques.. it wasn't supposed to be so complicated but we over-anaylsed the questions until we ended up answering wrong.. so this time around. i tried to anaylse the questions less.. lol... but still.. oh well... hehe... anyway.. very thankful it's over.. no more tests for now.. until eos..

just realized that this is already week 13 of our semester.. which means.. next week is officially our last week in imu.. but cuz we'll be having the one day hospital attachment next week.. there are no classes next week! this is our last and really last week in imu... :( kinda sad too.. i mean.. after all.. we've been studying here for 2 years d.. its quite long. there are some feelings for this uni.. we'll be leaving in june... which will be here in no time.. :( it'll be the first time i'll be away from home so long.. as usual.. just the thought of going to scotland makes me excited.. but honestly.. i'm quite worried... worrying bout this and that.. and.. lots of things.. everything under the sun... lol... according to yee xiang.. i always have nothing better to do other then worry.. :( lol.. always kena scold by him... 'you nothing to do ah? keep worry for what??' dats me...

was in cg last friday night and what jhim shared with us meant alot to me... it taught me more about leaving it to God.. especially when i've already done all that i can.. i should leave the rest to HIM... it was about this verse in Matt 7:

vs 25 'Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?

vs 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. are you not much more valuable than they?

vs 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

vs 28 "and why do you worry bout clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labour or spin.

vs 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these.

vs 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

vs 31 So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'

vs 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things well be given to you as well.

vs 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Sleep-over! :)

it was monday, two days ago when there was a reminder announcement during lecture :

'class, pls come at 8.30 sharp tomorrow (tues) for the class labcoat photoshoot at the atrium. pls be punctual'

so early wei.. we had to get the photo taken cuz prof peter had another appointment at 9am.. and was only available before 9.

din't realize that time really flies so fast... :( but i remember vividly that she stayed over another time after that incident.. couldn't really remember when... was talking with huey ying on tues (yesterday) when suddenly.. she remembered the other time she stayed over! it was the night before our interview at imu... ! yup.. that was bout... 2 years ago.. :) in was even before we entered imu!! hehe.. she stayed over.. and we went for the interview together!!

kept talking with huey ying on monday (in my room)... talked bout all the stuffs that happened recently.. bout guys.. and all our other probs... hm... really missed talking to her..
studied awhile.. but honestly.. both of us din have to mood to study... ended up watching prison break.. and... eating cookies and nuts.. :) lol.... then talked and talked until quite late.. till both of us fell asleep!!
