Exams are over!!:) Well almost, except for the 15%prac exam on the 26th:) but hey, I had Ki during prac the whole sem, so of course I wasn't sitting around like a spare tyre doing nothing while she did everything. So of course I'd know what's going on hahaha. naah, that's why we're all 3 of our science units together!!!! HOW EXCITING:)
She makes my uni days so happy:) So do Josh and Jenny:) Lean on me// hahaha, I had that song playing in my head during Dev, all your fault Ki!! I bet that's why I forgot to write "gastrulation" and "neurulation", describing everything else instead. haha:)
Anyway! I just came back from cell group:) I really do enjoy my cell group. We don't just have fun, we really do share and pray for each other..I do hope more people will come and join us!!:) hahaha.
We played this game I remembered from Shuying's cell last time..where you draw a circle, and then pass the paper around. Everyone looks at you and adds a feature (ie. eyes, ears)..when I got my pic back, I couldn't stop laughing cos it was so horrid!! (Compared to the reallllyy nice pic they drew for me in Shuying's cell..so the expectation was there haha)
I looked like a pig with some really bad nose hair. How dare you..haha. Okay fine, Oliver looked like Buddha, Owee looked like a China imperial guard (also because I drew an aerial version of her cap, instead of 3d), Jane looked like she was wearing excretion on her neck, Cheryl with really small eyes (I the drawer, protest at that misguided truth)..and you name it haha.
Uber funny!:) I wanted to scold everyone and defend my face. hahaha, but looking at Justin's portrait..hey mine aint that bad hahahaha..:) love them STILL. :) and Joseph, our new member (praise God) wrote: Charlene, you are as beautiful (aww so sweet), as you look in this pic (what the!!? -turns and stares) haha. okay, but he said he meant it the other way, so graciously forgiven!! :)
Now on to the serious part..haha. I was just telling Owee, that I currently feel like I just woke up from a really bad dream. haha. But the good part was that God was with me through it all. I don't think I ever had such a horrid week during the exams. I came down with flu on monday night, after my first paper. Yeah, then things went downhill from there with 3 papers in a row from wed-fri. But my God carried me through, and He told me this, "C'mon girl, you can't do this alone, but we can do this together. Get up and try again, I'll do it with you." I just felt so encouraged, because I know His grace can carry me through. :)
Thank you to everyone who's encouraged me along. The OCF-ers who pray everyday at 930am, I know He answers your prayers:) My parents and sister, for being so understanding during this time. Still loving me through whatever nonsense I give you all. I don't take it forgranted, really. :)
And to my friends, for their encouragement. Like my cell, spamming each other with e-mails. Truth be told, I immensely disklike one-liner e-mails accompanied with the audacity to 'replyall' even when it scarcely concerns the other 32590239 of us..but all your emails really encourage me, just to know what's going on in your lives:) hehehe.
Going to the city tomorrow with my bimbotic Nikki. Gosh, it's been almost a year and a half now:) And hopefully, meet Shukkie:) hehehe.
Okay, here's a good song Jack sent.
'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
and to take him at His word;
just to rest upon His promise,
and to know, "Thus saith the Lord."
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I've proved Him o'er and o'er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!
O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
just to trust His cleansing blood;
and in simple faith to plunge me
neath the healing, cleansing flood!
Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
just from sin and self to cease;
just from Jesus simply taking
life and rest, and joy and peace.
I'm so glad I learned to trust thee,
precious Jesus, Savior, friend;
and I know that thou art with me,
wilt be with me to the end.
