the past few days haven't been the best, but instead of focussing on these things, i shall instead be positive and thus, will write a
thank you God list
1. orientation- thank You God tt today orientation was alot funner than yesterday's. thank You tt i was pretty much able to overcome my shyness (yes i really am shy ok! ahah) and talk to more of my group members. thank you that the girls in the group are now more bonded(O: and the awkward silences are fewer!
2. watchnight service-thank You God for my beautiful worship team who were willing to forgo various happening lunches to come down and practice(O: and make a joyful noise! ahhaha which wasn't really noisy at all, i felt it went well, and i'm glad tt the youths are a bit more enthu now! (i hope? haha) thank You for a really fun time with crazy ribbon and fake snow and PARTY POPPERS!
3. friends-thank You God tt i have these amazing people in my life. pple to laugh with, to fall back on, to just be myself with them... i don't think i'd be able to survive without them. zai, dee, char, oldling, sarahmoss. probably only one or two of you will see this. but you guys really are special and make me ohsohappy(O:
4. orientation again-thank You God for giving me sightings of familiar faces whenever it seems to be getting too much! ahhaha. it feels so good to catch sight of a friend, close or unclose, amidst the masses of unknown chingchong school pple. at my lowest i caught sight of nic, and the surge of joy i felt was amazing, i usually only get that at Christmas. that's how happy i was man. anw these pple include crystal, kelly, nic, char, ming, zai, chia, ethel (yes even ethel! haha), yvonne, sarah. today toshi caleb and sam came down! and it was strangely good to see them. also sometimes i catch ah quah in the canteen and even tt makes me happy.
5. the migrants-for liza, nu and grace. thank You God for taking care of them and for helping them fit into their schools. for dee and tessa, thank you tt they are still ok even though their orientation is boring. ahhaha. thank You for being with nana and blessing her with a really fun camp(O: OMG I HAVENT SPOKEN TO CHERYL AND ZHIWAY AND APRIL YET. i shall call them tmr.
ok the end! actually maybe i shld do this thank You God thing more eh. maybe i can have thank you thursdays!(O:
anyway i've only come up with 2 resolutions so far, both of which i fully intend to keep:
1. my first priority in all things shall be God
2. i shall exercise more! or else i will really become a whale. a blue whale, probably, since i lose my tan at the speed of light.
------------------
everyday, Lord
i'll learn to stand upon Your word
and i pray that i
that i might come to know You more
that You'd guide me
in every single step i take that
everyday i can be Your light unto the world(O:
