Yvonne thinks.

Why do we have to be sad during our exams?

How are we supposed to concentrate?
Why can't we be sad some other time instead?
Couldn't we have just discovered people's departures later onwards?


Yesterday was my last day of high school, and now I have the Sixth Form to look forward to (NOT). I guess my mind has drifted apart from my studies just a little bit, and just like everyone else, I got caught up with the whole leaving-end-of-school thing. It kind of hits you after a while, and it hits you really hard. Played Drops of Jupiter - Train with Ashleigh and Folarin today during the Upper School assembly which was really nice. Performed a drumline piece with TM, Iz and Hakim during the Year11 assembly. Hafiz, Iffah, Hannah and Muiz sang My Love - Justin Timberlake and I sang Save Tonight - Eagle Eye Cherry with Muiz. I'm falling in love with "save tonight" all over again. I was so damn nervous and my voice kind of went haywire but SALL GOOOOOOOD! haha

I've got pictures but I havent transferred them yet so I'm just gonna steal some pictures off Alicia hehehe :P I hope she doesn't mind.





Damn, it's gonna be so empty next year. I just hope I'll make new friends, because most (or all) of my close friends will be gone. I have never signed so many shirts in my whole life! hahaha. I hopeeeeeee that I'll keep in touch with people. Just when I was getting close to some people, they leave :( oh well.. some people dont know how much they really mean to me. well it's about time I let them know roiteee! I thought I was getting used to the whole 'leaving' thing, but I guess I was wrong...

More Than Life

It's currently 3:45a.m. and I'm still awake, and obviously I shouldn't be up til this hour seeing as I just got better from being sick and all. The most amazing thing happened man I swear, I had a high fever of 39 degrees and a really bad sore throat and cough and blablabla yesterday night and I was praying in tongues until I fell asleep. When I woke up this morning, I realized the fever was gone!! and I wasn't coughing as much and all that there is left is my sore throat- it feels like there's a rock or something stuck in my throat I swear -_- so horrible, but praise God for my speed recovery =) Thanks to all those who kept me in their prayers!

Well I felt artsy fartsy and decided to work on my prep work for my GCSE art exam (yes, the REAL DEAL!) hahaha. I got my nerd on and studied biology for 2 hours this afternoon outside my balcony. However I did get distracted cause of the grasscutter, and so I decided to use my headphones to reduce the level of noise he was making, but it didn't really work. so I moved the whole table to the living room upstairs just outside my room, and a few minutes later my mum came home and started yapping all around the house which just spoiled the silence I was enjoying during my nerdy time. so I moved the table back to my room where I couldn't really concentrate due to all the pictures that are stuck on my wall (filled with people I love of course) hahaha and yeah. People, Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a high water concentration to a low water concentration across a semi-permeable membrance! but duh, of course you knew that already.

Maybe it hasn't hit me yet that my GCSEs have actually begun, and this is quite worrying. I should be studying my ass off but I'm not. WHY?!?! I think I study better with friends (that can help me) around, which is why I'm having nerdy time with Bernard and Matthew on Thursday and hopefully some nerdy time with Baxter on Sunday after service!

Whilst I was painting, I managed to finish Season 2 and 3 of SCRUBS! heck yeah! :) and when I finished that, I decided to watch the Hillsongs + Delirious? LIVE dvd I bought in Singapore. Whilst listening to the songs, I just reflected back on what God has done in my life recently. For sure he has given me so many new people in my life, and because He knows I love people and having new friends to no end, He has given me so many interesting people to meet these past few days at camp. also, I have been getting to know Baxter so much better than before (we were kinda like hi-bye friends before) and I consider him as a close friend now :) Baxter is so cool you see, so I'm gonna post a picture of him. (hopefully he won't kill me)

{L}Baxter and {R}Haziq


Baxter and Haziq again.

Hahaha oh and he is quite a poser, he poses like 24/7! Well it's been ages since I've gotten close to someone in school, like as in 'real friends'. Most of the people I call close friends are the people I see every Friday and Sunday (you guys should know who you are). and I've also got a few in school, but I miss the feeling of having a best guy friend you know? but yeah, got to know Baxter so much more and he's such an interesting person to talk to :) and I'm not just saying that! hahaha he's someone I can actually talk to properly and this is gonna sound so stupid, but finally for once, I feel like someone actually cares, you know? =)

woah I just looked at the time and it's 4:58a.m.! how did 3:45 get to 4:58?! I just went on a grabbing-spree on friendster and grabbed loadsa peoples photos haha. I'm so excited for Acts29 on Friday! and service on Sunday at the new place AC2! I'm so excited for God :) and of course to meet the new comers that came for camp!

God has really answered my prayers. I remember a year ago or so being so depressed because I thought I didn't have any 'real' friends or just friends who gave a damn about me. Look at me now, I have people I can actually call my own brothers and sisters :)

How blessed am I to have friends like those?
...very blessed :)

I remember the first time I went to Acts, I was only wishing and hoping that I could be one of those people up on stage in the worship team. A few months later, Jeremy asks me to audition for Keyboard and Drums! I remember he asked me to audition for keyboard right on the spot after an evening service. I was so nervous but it went well and I did okay :D now I'm actually in the worship team! and I've never been happier :D God has also been answering my prayers in other areas :) bit personal to mention here so yeah. Sometimes I just don't know how to give thanks to God, even to the extent of me telling Him that I love Him isn't enough, you know? But all I can do is to give him all my praise and to worship him, and to tell him I love Him, even more than life. I am learning to 'starve the feeling' because I know it will go away. I am slowly learning.. whatever it takes to be more like Christ :)

I'm getting my hair dyed tomorrow woop woop! now I don't know if I should sleep or not. it's almost six in the morning and if I do go to bed, chances are I probably won't wake up till later in the afternoon which means I will miss dying my hair and miss the opportunity to go to Melissa's house to study.


I love You more than life.. Jesus, you are the saviour of my soul :)
