what alarm????

Owh man...Day one of uni and already i'm struggling to wake up for my first class at 9 am. You know, when your alarm ring but you had no idea it did and worst of all, that you even switched it off. I didn't even dream about any loud piercing sound. Nothing!! So so so weird coz i'm so sure i set it to the right time. CRAP! Anyways, i woke up 10 minutes to 9am and quicky washed up and made it in time for class=) Don't ask me how.....

I've got 2 more hours till my next class so i'm sitting in the library trying to kill some time. Yawn....

Hmm...i think OC is EVIL!!! AHHHH!!! Nah, just kidding. But i find it so addictive. Like you just wana sit there and keep watching till the end of the episode. Then another and another.....Not that it's THAT great but i just watch it for the sake of company and cos of boredom. Teehee...Now i just wana shoot Julie!!! (one of the characters in the show).

Sigh...It's back to Uni and more more work and pracs....hopefully i get to dissect some cute amphibian again this sem....yumm...=P

ONE MORE WEEEEEEEK

Am currently in uni. Yes...haven't actually stepped into Baillieu Lib for a loooooong time. Walked pass it last Fri when i met up with a fren and showed him around campus. Oh well, this brings back old memories. The last time i was here before that friday was the day before my last exam for Sem 1 when JC helped me SOOOOO much with one of my subjects. I know i owe it to him =)

Anyways, it's been such an amazing week. Well, not exactly productive but just amazing. A part of me can't wait for the next semester to officially begin but then i still wana enjoy my holidays. I really don't know what to write. Wish i could just cut and paste a part of my journal to post it here...but it's TOOOOO personal...ehehhe...

yawn...

Came across this while listening to the radio....

You're starting to grow old when you find yourself in the middle of the stairways, not knowing if you're on our way up or down.

The absence of You

Not even
The gentlest whisper
Or the loudest roar
Not even
The shadow of You
Or the brushing of Your robe
Not even
The fragrance that lingers on
Or the rays that pierces through
Not even
The markings of Your footsteps
Or a glance at me

Am i
The forsaken
The rejected
The forgotten
The unwanted?

The absence of You
Is more painful
Than a thousand knives
Slashing my flesh
Than burning coal
Searing my skin

Pain beyond bear

calms down

ok...i'm back to normal, i think....As you can read in my previous entry, i just checked my results like...four hours ago and i passed all 5 subjects. Man...the sigh of relief =)

Honestly,i kinda expected to fail one of my freaking difficult 100%, 3 hour exam. Then i'd probably have to beg them to accept my special consideration coz i had a food poisoning the week before my exam. I remember lying on the futon feeling dehydrated, weak and had no appetite for any sort of food. I started to cry(yes i did...*blush) and prayed to God. "Do You even care??!!! I had it all planned out. To study this today and then that tomorrow. Then i have time to do some past exam papers....You don't carE!!!!"

Then just Monday, I heard a phrase-What matters to you and your heart, matters to God. Wow...And just before i checked my results, i received a sms from a special friend-Things that matter to you, matter to God too....WOW...i was going to cry...only that i was in Safeway. hehe...

Now, hours later, i'm still amazed. Not only cos i passed my exams, but also coz of the revelation of another side of God's face and heart. He DOES care...(*doh, i know). teehee...I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment.

So blessed, i can't contain it. So much i've gota give it away....

Just found a new hobby...KNITTING!! ahaha...it's rather tiring coz after a while, your neck starts to feel sore. Fingers really tired. And eyes a bit too strained from the concentration. But it sure has helped me and mum bond a little bit more. Sigh...gonna miss mum a lot when she leaves. Oh well, i'll always be mummy's baby girl =P Will try to put some pics of my 'project' on the blog as soon as i learn how to do it.....

Under-aged

Sometimes i feel like people look down at me just because i'm young. Yes, maturity comes with age. But am i always that young, innocent child that my mum will always see in her eyes. Sigh. I know in a lot of ways, her purpose for making some decisions is to protect me and to make sure i don't walk a road that i may regret. Maybe i just want her to know that God's my Shepherd and i walk where He leads me. She doesn't have to worry...(wait a minute...it's a natural thing for mothers to worry.)

No....i didn't have an arguement with mum. Just think she doesn't understand me. It's not that i'm going to intentionally do the stuff that she doesn't want me to. But her opinion matters to me. Bleh. oh i don't know. Parents are there for me to love and honour. To put weight to their opinion. But is it 'wrong' to make my decision even when she doesn't agree on it??

clueless ~_~

To listen or not to listen

What does submission mean? Is it to lose all opinion even when you have one? Is it to listen and obey a person who's clearly directing you towards the wrong direction? Is it to quietly listen and 'admit your mistake' which isn't your mistake even? i don't know.

Maybe i'm writing this out of my frustration. I've always been rebellious. I hate it when someone who's older or a parent claims to be right and uses their self enforcing authoritarion powers over you. True, they're older. True they're my parents. But why can't people listen and not think they're right just because of their family and social status. They don't write the laws. I don't live by laws!!! erm..wait..i think i don't have a choice. Anyways, i think the rebellious side of me is emerging. Very bad. very bad.

your views on submission??
