Life is a delicacy waiting to be whipped up!

I absolutely love my Ginvera green tea soap-it leaves an everlasting scent. So after stinkin in sch for practically the whole day afta netball, I’m all fresh and nice. Sounds lyk some bread. Green tea loaf. But PE was crappy, why am I chapatti? Kel was rending and she said she din wanna be chicken. FYI, rending is beef, u cowgirl. And chelle the sotong. Haha. But well, we wer all Indianish cept Claire s Indian accent was horrendous. North India.. erh, ok. I lov these ppl, we make jokes out of nothing, and well, everything.

Tis wk is splurging wk. Thank God for that super stretched 50 dollars a fortnight ago. I m still left with 40 plus? Good for all the gifts. We bought a elephant for mr khor! Yeah. For bowling, there s the bottle for Kieran and two really nice necklaces for them. Hm. I m safekeeping them for the moment, but I really wanna keep it for myself cos they re gorgeous! Talk abt temptations. One is unique and sweet and the other sophisticated. Aren’t those adjectives used to describe ME? Slaps. Too thick skinned. But they ARE nice. Hmph.

Sadness! Need to put more effort into studies. Maybe my study method aka pure mugging is wrong. I need to utitilize the tys more instead of focusing all attention on tutorials, hope it hasn’t rot inside the cardboard yet. And the penalty of my slackiness is reflected in the marks. OUCH.

Choices thrown in my way
Realize now my stronghold is wrong
I fear consequences of another day
Its solitary where faith belongs.

Burdens mount every hour
Pressure grooms the stone that sparkles.
Wishing I was just a wild flower
Swaying in the wind with leaves that rustle.

If I could I’d turn back time
But the journey’s already begun
Sinking deeper into crime
Not my will but yours be done

Hectic. Pure madness. That was life for the past week. And I am so glad its over. Though that means promos are now one week nearer.. I really think our school cell is a blessing. During each session, we just pour our hearts out, talk about life and gain more knowledge about God-His works, His plan, everything. And its real nice to see more of our klazmates joinin us each week. Yup.

But the world is seriously changing. And its not exactly for the better. Took a bus home earlier and the uncle utilized the horn at almost every alternate bus stop. Hello, a bit of patience wont kill. Why is the world like that? One minute of kindness from everyone is all it takes to make the world a better place. Its ironic how true it is but u only hear such stuff on beauty pageants- World Peace! Waves hand.

And carrie related her amusing encounter today. Her teacher didnt excuse her to the toilet despite her askin several times, she said she was practically flooded, so she waved the pad in front of the teacher and went ‘I need to go to the toilet.’ Plus evil glare and the teacher had no choice. Woah. Not bad. Ha. Hm, next time I ll try that too. = p

Splash thru the river spring and
Hear the birds chirp the summer song.
Paint my name on autumn leaves
As each snowdrop reflect my thoughts.

Yesterday, Katong, Selections. I was so inconsistent. The scores were lyk a sine graph. How will we ever make it for nationals? Sigh. On a lighter note, dinner was real crappy, esp the ice wars. Tpjc bowlers are horrible.. Horribly hilarious. I guess tis is what makes life amusing. =) Tp idol. Ha. Another modified copycat. They are askin me to join. Faisal said he ll be bringin eggs by the cartons. So unless it’s a grp effort, no thanks you. But Joy can sings really well. Her melodious voice is comparable to that of a Siren. No offence! I lyk doin power notes. But that’s about it. Well, the promos are now super near. I need to score. Despite hindering factors such as PW and GP presentatn, I have to pull thru. By His grace, I can. Now, time to look for another article since she claimed my prev one to be ‘not challenging enough’ *bish*.

We heard a crowd of people shouting
And so we stopped to find out why
And there was that man
That my dad said he loved
But today there was fear in his eyes

So I said "Daddy, why are they screaming?
Why are the faces of some of them beaming?
Why is He dressed in that bright purple robe?
I'll bet that crown hurts Him more than He shows
Daddy, please can't you do something?
He looks as though He's gonna cry
You said he was stronger than all of those guys
Daddy, please tell me why
Why does everyone want him to die?"

Later that day the sky grew cloudy
And Daddy said I should go inside
Somehow he knew things would get stormy
Boy was he right
But I could not keep from wondering
If there was something he had to hide

So after he left I had to find out
I was not afraid of getting lost
So I followed the crowds
To a hill where I knew men had been killed
And I heard a voice come from the cross

And it said, "Father, why are they screaming?
Why are the faces of some of them beaming?
Why are they casting their lots for My robe?
This crown of thorns hurts Me more than it shows
Father, please can't You do something?
I know that You must hear My cry
I thought I could handle the cross of this size
Father, remind Me why
Why does everyone want Me to die?
When will I understand why?"

"My precious Son, I hear them screaming
I'm watching the face of the enemy beaming
But soon I will clothe You in robes of My own
Jesus, this hurts Me much more than You know
But this dark hour I must do nothing
Though I've heard Your unbearable cry
The power in Your blood destroys all of the lies
Soon You'll see past their unmerciful eyes
Look there below, see the child
Trembling by her father's side
Now I can tell You why
She is why You must die"

There s something miraculous abt this song, it never fails to brings tears every single time I hear it. The only reason why is because it is all so true.

We didnt really noe oneanother but we hit off perfectly. the team spirit was super on. cindy and i did our bests. but it was perry and jerri who performed rather outstandingly. jerald simply spun his way, using a hse ball, to a 130+ avergage. consistent. speed and power. perry was scary. seriously. for sumone who trained at home..haha..he did a 180. real accurate. i am super proud of them. i bet cindy is too. champion team. and a smile spreads over my sun burnt faced. got top individual female. cindy gave me a tough fight. but we are still best partners. i love her, she is a wonderful buddy who is such a joy bringer and firm conscience reminder. haha. top teams included chee jeng and jer seow s teams. high game went to first lady, jay for 190. and overall male champ was boon pin. met xueping. she is super nice lah. then so shy..haha. and i m happy to say i successfully cut away the pig frm our grp photos.

today friday. went out before sunrise, came back after sunset. over bowled today but the whole rushing everywhere thing was rather thrilling. it is without doubt that my skills have degraded. hello? wherever did carmen the bowler go? the lanes at tampines doesnt permit much ball reaction. i guess it down to pure driving force then. anxiety. apprehension. fear. pride. distractions. work. is this all that life s abt? i dunno why im stressing out over bowling open. could it be the things people said? theres something i wanna prove. but to who? for what? i guess its still myself. i cant let my team down. i m aiming for something i ve never achieved. pushing the limits. scaling the heights. overcoming..myself.

Breaking under the stress.
My world is falling apart.
Griping onto my strongholds
Pride Faith Responsibility.

Be the one to mend it.
Make my world complete.
Go off into the sunset
Pace your footsteps with mine.

i know it doesnt rhyme. its just raw emotions.
