okay. its midday, but i'm feeling tired. more of sian lah. yesterday was realli wasted, thanks to the earthquake that shook the undersea cables, causing the NUS server to go crazy. open bidding was supposed to end at 1300hours. but the server was down so we couldn't bid properly, and they put up a notice saying they're trying to get it up by 1200. then extended to 1400, and finally 1800. wasted my day in front of the com man! at 1500+hours when i saw the server was still down i got frustrated and went outta the house hahhaha.

so bidding started again today, now closed bidding is still going on, till 1700hours. psy is really SO popular its scary. the highest bid point was 2049. crazy feller.

later on got syc camp echo at 7pm haha. dont know what's gonna happen. kinda drained finding & planning modules!

oh about my sem 1 results..
everything's cool :) thank God everything went okay! for the module i thought i was sure to die, i got an A and i was like... what's this and i re-checked my name. He worked a miracle man. totally humanly NOT POSSIBLE. jiayou for sem 2 sophie, jiayou.

ALRIGHT NOW. oh this morning mom shook me up with good news. haha thank you Lord, you know our every situation, and you always save us in time.

the greatest of them, is love

love, my friends, for the time is near

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE (happy boxing day rather)

i love christmas :)
i love christmas :)

was really busy since friday, starting with touche retreat, then salvation is here, then parties. indeed, i love christmas!

received a coupla really memorable & special christmas gifts, a few touching cards :)

was really touched when i read guonian's blogpost on 26 dec 2006 at 8.19pm. well done, bro.

to my dearest touche:
don't let the HIGH of retreat die down. i believe it wont, because you are convicted in your heart, and whatever was said & felt came straight from your heart. whatever goals you have set for yourselves for the coming year, work on them, remember-persevere. i see where we are now as the most crucial & dangerous part in our entire journey. simply because there are only 2 ways to go from here. we either let our flame & passion die away and revert back, or we take heed of our calling and move forward towards something that is so so rewarding. my darlings, remember that transformation doesn't come easily. we get our input from above, and make a conscious effort to output. my friends, the greatest of them is love.

my exam results will be out in 8 hours. scared, i must say, afterall its my first uni exam.
dont you trust me? He asks.
i do.

the year's coming to an end, in just a coupla days. 2006, somehow i remember little from it. but i know 2007 will be very very different from this year. people i've grown close to are going away for studies.

friends only grow apart when they're no longer in your heart

cheers for now. gonna relive the days at cosi, courtesy of our photographer biglam :)

aniway, i was highly amused when mom showed me the questions she prepared for Prayer Sparks (this prayer ministry for kids which she heads)

1. When Jesus was hung at the cross, they put a sign on top that said:-
a) Do not disturb
b) Forgive them
c) King of the Jews

2. The meaning of Golgotha is
a) The Skull
b) The Skeleton
c) Smelly feet

3. Who made the announcement when Jesus was born
a) the radio
b) angels
c) shepherds

4. What happened to Judas Iscariot after he betrayed Jesus?
a) went to Genki sushi
b) hang himself
c) went dancing

and now for the grand finale.

How did Stephen die?
a) by stoning
b) by drowning
c) choke on fishball

i was sucking strepsils at that time and i truly nearly choked on it.

its been raining the entire day! non stop man. daniel got his wish today- to visit chinatown heritage centre. must say the entire thing is an interesting replica of the old times... bucket system and all. except that i was abit sick and the medicine made me feel sleepy so oh well you noe how its like.

-triumph in the skies- was really sad today. yunzhi died! ah fine its just a show :)

christmas christmas christmas! somehow the mood's different this year. dont know why. there's no talk of the usual family gathering that we've had since forever. no talk of present exchange within the extended families. and... i've only bought 2 presents up to today! this is bad.

alright. off now.

Dear God,

it was my birthday yesterday. it was nothing special, but i thanked You for making me who i am, for giving me what i have, for being who You are. no big celebrations, but the one constant thing in my life-You. had piano lesson at 11am, and i received a present from mr tan :) mom & dad brought me to compass point to walk around... then we had lunch there at a thai restaurant. walked around a little more, and we had chilli crabs for dinner. we watched teevee when we got home, and i ate my mini choc log cake with the plastic santa on top haha.

so Lord, i'm 19 now haha. next year the first digit changes. how fast indeed eh? well i guess birthdays serve as a reminder.. to keep count of the years you've been with me.

and Lord, thank you for all the friends who msged & wished me a happy birthday haha... thanks for everyone you've brought my way.

alright now... take pleasure in the next year of my life, my King

Love,
Sophie
