It's Christmas day!! Blessed Christmas everyone! Well, went to church as usual and it was fun. The youth and a number of the children participated in a Christmas play called the Christmas Shoe and it was really good a play! thumbs up to all who were involved...go back and take a break before breakaway; which is only a day away! Finally, after a few years the Alfa youth will be going off for another breakaway! So can't wait but the things for my group aren't done yet...aiks! Will be going on the 27th and returning on the 29th...was hoping that the camp could be a little longer but sadly we're not allowed to. hmmm, i dont think i have much to say already except that i got presents! haha. not that many or maybe because they are all small but thank you everyone who gave me presents. Appreciated! Cerlyn, we finally got the shoes for each other and dont worry about the shoe i'll get use to it!

Bible Knowledge....
lalala....All I want for Christmas is You!!! now; now whoever that is reading this post, thou shall not perasan! =P This is the Christmas song that keeps on playing continously in my mind and i dont even know why. Maybe I'm missing someone *pauses and wonders* Nah! No one special....I'm free! (sorry Aaron no use if you tease me). Anyways, I'm just terribly bored so yeah don't mind my crapping.
Okay, I've finally thought of what I want to crap about today...BK which is short for Bible Knowledge. This is actually a SPM subject for those of you who do not know. Erm, it is also one of the 10 subjects which I sat for; for SPM this year. Here are my reasons for taking BK:
1. I dropped Bio so I thought 9 isnt a complete number, got to look for another subject to make a perfect 10.
2. It's just the Bible...how hard can it get?!
3. I love memorizing...and it is pretty similar to History right....?
Then, to my big shocker when my friends who sat for this subject the year before (they said it was easy) and none of them got A, I almost fainted!!! I began to realize this isn't going to be as easy as I thought it would be and I had already begun classes; which by the way only started this year, thus there was no turning back. Yes, I finished two books in a period of one year instead of two. So that scared me even more. However, as I began studying the book of Luke and Acts I began to realize that Bible Knwoledge is actually a subject worth taking. The most important thing about learning this subject is actually the knowledge and lessons I gain from it; which overall involves everything God has done in those two books. It really amazes me at how awesome the God I serve is. I especially love the Book of Luke as it focuses on Jesus and how He led His life here on earth. Even though He knew very well that He was going to be handed over to the Gentiles, leaders, chief priests and etc to be punished for a crime He did not commit, He never ran away from it. Instead, He made His way to Jerusalem to fulfill God's purpose for Him. Among my favourite lines or verses from the book of Luke,is this particular phrase uttered by Jesus when He was on a hill praying ( the night He was betrayed by Judas Iscariot) "Father, not my will but yours be done".
As I continued to revise for my exam, I read through this line several times and I slowly began to instill that into my life. I began to realize that if I wanted to fully commit to God, I had to give up my everything for Him. Just like what Jesus said to the people who wanted to be His disciples, "For whoever wants to save his own life will lose it but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it". So basically these two things are among those things that I learned while studying Bible Knowledge. It also helped me with my walk with God, although my main focus was on the book of Luke and Acts but through these two books I really saw God in a different perspective and began to appreciate the things and people I have in my life even more and it also really dawned upon me that my God is really an Awesome and Mighty God. Thus, I am truly thankful to believe in Him.
Another thing about Bible Knowledge is that even though I will no longer be studying it, my teachers have requested that I assist them beginning next year. haha. Hi Ju and Cerlyn! *evil laugh* Finally, I shall be able to torture you girls! hehe. Just kidding. Thank God I at least have something to do next year while I wait patiently for Form 6 to start in May or June (yup, yup long, long holiday).
Okay, this is official all I can write for now. Guess it is one of the longest that I have written right...

finally another post
Just checked my blog and no surprise I have not even blog since...erm I don't even know when. So I guess I should at least post another blog now right since I'm so free *smiles widely* (and Gabby here's the post you were asking for). Basically I'm free for the next few months because SPM is over! That was simple. The exam was ok ok. I did my best so now I shall just leave it all to God to determine my results.
What have I been doing since the 3rd of Dec ( by the way, that was when my exam ended), well nothing much. I went shopping with Gabrielle...christmas shopping that is on the 7th and the 8th and we spent a bomb. (Girl, next year we need a budget!!!) Then on the 10th till the 13th I went off to bandung, indonesia with my family for our traditional end year holiday. It was fun and the weather there was just fine (better than over here that is). Not only that, I got to and SHOP; SHOP; SHOP and SHOP! For those of you who know me, you'll know that it was a dream holiday for me. Bought 9 clothes, two shoes and a new handbag...exceeded my budget as usual. I have to thank my parents for allowing me to shop that much and of course thank God for giving me the opportunity to go overseas and shop...not everyone has that chance to do so so I do realize I have truly been blessed by Him. So thanks again God.
Besides all that, am preparing for the youth's breakaway! *jumps for joy* Finally, after two years ALFA is having a breakaway again! Am assigned as an assistant leader for a group and thank God I've got a leader whom I will be able to work well with. *pauses and wonders* Okay, I've lost the mood to write again. Sorry people, I guess I'm getting more and more bored as the day pass by.
