sch starting
ah crap...skool starting tmr...its frkin stupid...i mean...whose skool reopens on New Years Eve???its a real crappy concept...make us go back to skool n do all sorts of stupid things...clean up da classroom, meet yr teachers, listen to da frkin speech by da high-n-mighty new principal etc...ah...n aft dat i hv to rush back coz i hv a new year's eve lunch wif Agape...lets juz hope i hv a gd form teacher...by dat i mean anyone apart frm lao guo, dat pey,n to a lesser extent miss tan yt...ya dat includes ah siaw...coz he can b crappy at times...but he is less irritating dat da public enemy no 1 n 2...i m keeping my fingers crossed...oh n speakin of teachers, i wan mr tien as sci teacher...he pulled my grades up frm "b" (thks mrs khoo) to a frkin A1...cool man...oh yea n i tink he was probably da reason y i joined da best cca on earth...NPCC...muahahahahaha....one last thot...how da hell m i supposed to b a senior nxt year...
a time of disaster
lemme say a few words bout da tsunami disaster...i saw da pics on tv n 1 thot came to mind...da destruction of Sodom n Gomorrah in the Bible...realli...i mean...dis disaster had da potential to wipe out the whole city...lets juz imagine such a thing happening to S'pore...it would cause dis frkin tiny island to literally disappear...1000+ ppl r dead...countless r still missing...n dat aint counting da outbreak of diseases dat will affect us in a way...in dis time of disaster...we shld pray 4 a number of things...dat da relief workers wont b deterred by anythin dey c...dat da missing ppl can b found soon...n oso dat da families affected by dis freak disaster will seek solace in God coz psalm 23 says" thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me"...
eve of christmas
hey hey....its yet another christmas eve...da time when we pig out...bt seriously...christmas, sad 2 say,has fallen prey to commercialism...juz look at orchard road...when christmas comes round da corner,all da crap sales come out...as it is da festive season,n christmas is a "time of giving", all da department stores take full advantage to earn more money...4 da past 12 years i hv thought of christmas as one of da most important dayz in da world...bt dis year a terrible realisation has struck me...christmas is on the verge of becoming just a virtual money-spinner for stores...in da first place,25th dec was neve da day Jesus Christ was born,n nobody noes when His actual birth date was...bt dey set it on da 25th becoz it used to b a day 4 a pagan festival...its gradually became known as Christmas Day...bt over 2000 years on,christmas is, in my opinion, gradually becoming a pagan festival again...sigh..
its dat time of da year again...christmas is around da corner...so first of all...BLESSED CHRISTMAS to one n all...n in da festive season....we r definitely goin to pig out....so hu cares....npcc training nxt year would take care of dat...christmas is a time to celebrate God's present to man dat meant so much...Jesus Christ...n becoz God gave his onli son to us, he was giving us a solution to sin....in other words he forgave all our sins...so in my opinion...christmas is da time of da year when u forgive n forget...so we all can look back on da past year n tink about hu we had quarrels wif...hu we hv a grudge on...its dat time of da year when we shld give these ppl a call or card to say..."Blessed Christmas...i forgive u...can u forgive me?"its not juz a time of forgiving n forgetting on our part...bt oso the other person involved...ask 4 his forgiveness...becoz "forgiveness is not earned, its given"...oh n on da celebrations...its not too bad dis year...wif da christmas @ stadium thingy n all...bt lemme juz say in advance dat yth svc dis sat morning...on christmas day itself...is gonna b HUGE...
