wat a loser u r, BRANDAN, U SUX
okay... i had a really long hiatus from blogging... 2 mths to be exact... i doubt any1 reads my blog l;e lor but anyway, i decided to update it... so i got nyself into VJC... though not a really good one but for a STUPID person like me, i shld be more then contented le ba... VJC is indeed a FUN jc like wat i imagined during my sec yrs, but theres another side to it, though the ppl there are fun, but when it all comes down to study, evry1 studies hard... SO UNLIKE ME, i m juz a NOBODY in every1 eyes... as for the class i m in, im in 07S36 taking the combination of Bio,CHEm,MathS, EconS...tough rite, esp for econs and bio which i m super weak in... for bio, we got a test next week (wtf...first 3 mths only leh, nid to be so hiong on us meh) though i sux at biology, i guess i wld like to scrap through the test. ya, being in VJC also allowed me to reignite the friendships during my pri sch yrs, i think every1 changed alot since we parted ways 4 yrs ago... as for gals, i m interested in SOMEBODY whom i shld not name, and btw she is not from dunman high school if this piece of news gets into the ears of my classmates like yong cheng and benjamin tay...PE in VJC is really tough and we are currently training up for the upcoming cross-country event... i guess my fitness level now shld be quite good le ba since i run almost everyday... maybe i shld represent my CCA for the cross country event... any ya, my current cca or CCAs are Floorball, Firefly club and hopefully a H3 science research and not so hopefully being part of the CT council...

OKAY then , i m HAPPY todae or shld i say exhilarated coz i got an A1 for geography thanks to the addition of 6 marks for every1 across the level and that is like a free 2 grades improvement lor... when i actually received my essay results, i was utterly disappionted coz i only managed an A2... But when i heard the BUT from mrs goh;s mouth, i knew something good is gonna happen...and it did....Now, i truly believe that my GOD is a GOD of abundance and gives me more marks than i ever need for all my subjects and i really OWE my results to my teachers, GOD and myself...I really wanna do well for O's too....YA and todae i met SALLy to TRADE papers for humanities and when i saw the CEDAR paper, i was SHOCKED at its complicity and difficulty coz the SBQ was like WOW (no wonder they were the top combined humanities school last yr)...LOOKS like my A1 for combines humanities is nothing as compared to the CEDAR paper and i gonna work triply hard to match those ppl that are much better than me out there and SHINE in the MARKETPLACE...........

OMG.....i had a very bad day guiding some pri school kids todae, firstly they are irritating and cannot keep their trap shut during the guide,,secondly, they fight during the guide, WAT A BUNCH OF SPOILT BRATS coming from a social home...AND it was the longest walk of my whole guiding career coz i nvr walked so far in a single guiding trip at all, i think i covered like 9km todae.....BUT that is not the end, still gotta pick a team that really behaved well during he guide but i simply could not find any team that deserved the prize so i picked my most hated colour which is YELLOW... and i have to confes, it is the very first time i had to guide at the HSBC treetop walk and i simply got no experience at all lor....then i managed to get alomost all the plants rite thanks to the internet, but nevertheless, i think i did a great job in guiding them todae coz all my knowledge of plants suddenly flooded back to my mind durinthe guide and i actually impressed those teachers.....

THE MARITAL PYRAMID
Law #1 HEALTHY idividuals make happy marriages
Law #2 Marriage is an EMOTIONAL MAGNIFIER
a) LOVE is a big manifying glass.
We all carry emotional baggages into a relationship. Love magnifies or bring out old emotional wounds and baggages that you may or may not notice until u get into a relationship.
Whateva emotional hurts, fears or insecurities you have hidden in ur heart will come to the surface in the marriage. That is why the best gift u can bring into a marriage is a healthy emotion.Marriage is not simply about finding the right partner - its abt being the right partner YOURSELF!!!
b)Love creates the emotional safety for old hurts and wounds to surface- for the purpose of being HEALED.....
c) The closer u get to ur spouse, the more ur ols repressed feelings will surface.

EMPOWER U`
Hey...........i feeling like freaking tired now coz i haven't been able to sleep for the whole nite.....simply i was too excited bout wats gonna happen tom....actually i was trying to complete my home work and i emphasize on the word trying coz i only manage to do some biology and wrote 8 social studies and history essay each coz i loathe doing maths......JUst went for a ,orning run at like 5am just now and came back at 6 to bathe before setting out for YING DAN's house to hitch a ride to INDOOR STADIUM......i noticed that my fitness dropped like mad coz that was the first time i tried runing aft my prelim 1 , i took like 12:44 mins to complete my 2.8km run coz tampines SUNPLAZA parki is 700m per round so no way i can do a 2.4km run.....after which iwent to the basketball court to play some basketball which i saw another guy there...having been sapped of my energy via running, he still asked to to play 1-om-1 .....i thot i might lose b4 the match coz he is like 1.75 m tall and without my full strength ,how m i going to beat him??? But i remembered wat EMPOWER U taught me last nite ,THE ONLY FAILURE IS THE FAILURE TO PARTICIPATE....so i started playing the game ....he decided that the match point was 15 pts....i agreed since i got so much time to spare, he was like leading 6-0 coz he was so fast, afterwhich i began to regain my energy but i still decided to go on energy-saving mode by bombarding the hoop with 3-pointers....i got a continuous streak of 4 and the score was now 6-8, i was in the lead....that guy continued with his lay-ups and i did mine tooso the score ended up 13-11....i was behind by 2 points,suddenly i felt an urge to win and decided to play seriously, using up all my tricks in fooling him in wrong directions the score ended up wif 14-14....wow now any1 shoot infirst wins.....he dribbles and i went the wrong way but i chased him and managed to sort of block him despite his height , i then took the ball , moved to the 3 point line and took a gamble, it paid off as i won the match 16-14, proving that tall ppl aren't the only ones that can play basketballl coz my cloass loves forming the team with short vs. tall and the short whick avgs 1.68 always beat those tall guys with an avg of 1.78m

The Room, a 17 year old's description of Heaven 17-year-old Brian Moore had only a short time to write something for a class.The subject as what Heaven was like. "I wowed 'em," he later told his father,Bruce."It's a killer. It's the bomb. It's the best thing I ever wrote."It also was the last.Brian's parents had forgotten about the essay when a cousin found it while cleaning out the teenager's locker at Teays Valley High School in Pickaway County.Brian had been dead only hours, but his parents desperately wanted every piece of his life near them, notes from classmates and teachers, and his homework.
Only two months before, he had handwritten the essay about encountering Jesus in a file room full of cards detailing every moment of the teen's life.But it was only after Brian's death that Beth and Bruce Moore realized that their son had described his view of heaven. It makes such an impact that people want to share it.You feel like you are there." Mr. Moore said.Brian Moore diedMay 27, 1997, the day after Memorial Day. He was driving home from a friend's house when his car went off Bulen-Pierce Road in Pickaway County and struck a utility pole. He emerged from the wreck unharmed>>>but stepped on adowned power line and was electrocuted.
The Moores framed a copy of Brian's essay and hung it among the family portraits in the living room."I think God used him to make a point. I think we were meant to find it and make something out of it," Mrs. Moore said of the essay. She and her husband want to share their son's vision of life after death. "I'm happy forBrian. I know he's in heaven. I know I'll see him.
Brian's Essay:The Room...In that place between wakefulness and dreams, I found myself in the room. Therewere no distinguishing feature sexcept for the one wall covered with small index card files. They were like the ones in libraries that list titles by author or subject in alphabetical order.But these files, which stretched from floor to ceiling and seemingly endless in either direction, had very different headings. As I drew near the wall of files, the first to catch my attention was one that read "Girls I have liked." I opened it and began flipping through the cards. I quickly shut it, shocked to realize that I recognized the names written on each one.And then without being told, I knew exactly where I was.
This lifeless room with its small files was a crude catalogue system for my life. Here were written the actions of my every moment, big and small, in a detail my memory couldn't match.A sense of wonder and curiosity ,coupled with horror, stirred within me as I began randomly opening files and exploring their content. Some brought joy and sweet memories; others a sense of shame and regret so intense that I would lookover my shoulder to see if anyone was watching.
A file named "Friends" was next to one marked "Friends I have betrayed."The titles ranged from the mundane to the outright weird. "Books I Have Read," "LiesI Have Told," "Comfort I have given," "Jokes I HaveLaughed at."Some were almost hilarious in their exactness:"Things I've yelled at my brothers." Others I couldn't laugh at:"Things I Have Done in My Anger", "Things I Have Muttered Under MyBreath at My Parents." I never ceased to be surprisedby the contents .Often there were many more cards than I expected. Sometimesfewer thanI hoped. I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of the life I had lived.Could it be possible that I had the time in my years to fill each of these thousands or even millions of cards? But each card confirmed this truth. Eachwas written in my own handwriting.Each signed with my signature.
When I pulled out the file marked"TV Shows I have watched, "I realized the files grew to contain their contents. The cards were packed tightly and yet after two or three yards, I hadn't found the end of the file. I shut it, shamed ,not so much by the quality of shows but more by the vast time I knew that file represented.When I came to a file marked "Lustful Thoughts," I felt a chill run through my body. I pulled the file out only an inch, not willing to test its size, and drew out a card. I shuddered at its detailed content. I felt sick to think that such a moment had been recorded.An almost animal rage broke on me. One thought dominated my mind: No one must ever see these cards!No one must ever see this room! I have to destroy them!" In insane frenzy I yanked the file out. Its size didn't matter now. I had to empty it and burn the cards. But as I took it at one end and began pounding it on the floor, I could not dislodge a single card. I became desperate and pulled out a card, only to find it as strong as steel when I tried to tear it. Defeated and utterly helpless, I returned the file to its slot. Leaning my forehead against the wall,I let out a long,self-pitying sigh.
And then I saw it... The title read,"People I Have Shared the Gospel With." The handle was brighter than those around it,newer, almost unused. I pulled on its handle and a small box not more than three inches long fell into my hands.I could count the cards it contained on one hand. And then the tears came. I began to weep. Sobs so deep that they hurt. They started in my stomach and shook through me. I fell on my knees and cried. I cried out of shame,from the overwhelming shame of it all. The rows of file shelves swirled in my tear-filled eyes. No one must ever, ever know of this room. I must lock it up and hide the key.But then as I pushedaway the tears, I saw Him.No, please not Him.Not here.
Oh, anyone but Jesus. I watched helplessly as He began to open the files and read the cards. I couldn't bear to watch His response. And in the moments I could bring myself to look at His face,I saw a sorrow deeper than my own. He seemed to intuitively go to the worst boxes. Why did He have to read every one?Finally He turned and looked at me from across the room. He looked at me with pity in His eyes. But this was a pity that didn't anger me. I dropped myhead,covered my face with my hands and began to cry again. He walked over and put His arm around me. He could have said so many things. ButHe didn't say a word. He just cried with me.Then He got up and walked back to the wall of files. Starting at one end of the room, He took out a file and, one by one, began to sign His name over mine on each card."No!" I shouted rushing to Him.All I could find to say was "No, no," as I pulled the card from Him. His name shouldn't be on these cards. But there it was, written in red so rich, so dark,and so alive. The name of Jesus covered mine. It was written with His blood. He gently took the card back. He smiled a sad smile and began to sign the cards. I don't think I'll ever understand how He did it so quickly, but the next instant it seemed I heard Him close the last file and walk back to my side. He placed His hand on my shoulder and said, "It is finished."I stood up, and He led me out of the room. There was no lock on its door. There were still cards to be written."I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
- Phil. 4:13"For God so loved the world that He gave Hisonly son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but haveeternal life." - John 3:16If you feel the same way, forward it to as many people as you can so the love of Jesus will touch their lives also. My"People I shared the gospel with" file just got bigger, how about yours? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yo....Juz went to collect the tickets for EUGENE....He shld really really thank me coz i went all the way to woodlands to collect it.....and if u wonder, my house is in tampines.the cab fare to and fro cost like 28 bucks....Anyway i shan't brood too much on that exhorbitant fare.....now i shall go on my insulting spree of BOB, mainly coz i m feeling super bored now........Regarding BOB, i really ran out of words to describe him as words itself aren't powerful enough to even express 1% of my feelings towards or shld i sat against that stinking low-life freak that GOD created by accident , I still wonder why he stinks so much ........imagine he being a gal, if a gal stinks that much , no matter how pretty she is , everyone would avoid her like a plague.......I still wonder if he will ever find a galfriend, even a stinking one would reject him........why?? most gals would like a guy for something that they appreciate abt that person they like, but for BOB from wateva perspective i try to look at him, nothing abt him would attract even a smelly gal.....coz there is simply nothing abt him worth appreciating , BINGO...i thot of one , he loves FREE stuff , maybe he could attract a gal, but i guess the gal would juz make use of him (putting on a gas mask when going out wif him) for FREE stuff erm..actually for him to queue up for her, but i realy dun see the need becoz the moment he tries to queue, there would be no queue left........Imagine him going to BIG WALK, the organizers would face a major headache coz every1 would leave except for his whole stinking family, and he would be proud to walk away wif all the lucky draw prizes........Simply becoz his stench is so strong that kiasu singaporeans would even forgo their shot at lucky draws, so to readers DUN EVEN TRY TO ASK ME FOR A CHANCE TO MEET HIM.........Coz i had tolerated his stench for like 2 yrs and i guess i going to DIE soon.........actually, there is a positive side of him which everybody had ignored , he is actuaclly PERFECT, why ??.coz GOD being a PERFECT being would nvr create something he could not use, thus BOB is being use by HIM too..........But as a PERFECT BAD EXAMPLE to other fellow humans .......

Hmm....juz viewed NICOLE's blog and noticed her rumbling abt history, basically if the art school has accepted HITLER in the first place, there would not be NAZISM or any part of GERMAN history aft WW1.....as for the stupid "MAO", god noes wat could have happened to him he were and CCP were defeated earlier and were exterminated by the KMT in the SHANGHAI MASACRE, if thaT HAPPENED I would have so little to learn for HIsTorY...ANYWAY i decided to take up the HUMANITIES scholarship and giving up my ambition of being a gynae, i guess i would fare better in the ARTS faculty than SCIENCE.though i might have to take LITERATURE, i heaqrd from my seniors that it is actually an advantage if we dun take LIT in SEC3&4 coz we dun have to unlearn and learn new stuff again...though today is a holiday but i did not finish much work at all, like spending half the day slacking ard at home, lying here and there..........

Hmm...GUESS today i shall stop the I HATE BOB thingy but blog abt my life....today was national day celebration, actually its quite a boring one so plz dun get too excited.........i wonder the school can't make the celebrations more interesting , i guess the best way to celebrate is not to come school on the eve of national day at all, and of course not pump us wif so much HW that even 1 week of break ain't enough to complete it.......YA and todae speech day was so boringgggggggg that i nearly fell asleep, esp when the guest of honor can't even speak chinese properly without mixing english , yet say he is a bi-lingual scholar.......maybe the best part of today is hanging out wif my old classmates, i wanna apologize to dexter coz i sort of pang seh him to go watch CLICK today.... Hmm, Geraldine looked a little older today with her white hair starting to blossom at her tender age of 15(maybe its due to pressure)........as for SALLY, she looked so different wif short hair (wonder why gals prefer short hair ????), or shld i say she looked quite chio........Hmm, EDWIN (dreaming to be SALLY BF) came taday and was so quiet lor, dun even there to strike or even engage on a chat wif SALLY, As for EUNICE, i had nvr seen her since a long long long long long time ago, and surely she looked different, she looked CUTE for her thin frame, and ya her face still looked as round as eva like the pri sch dayz.....guess that todae's gathering wasn't quite good afterall coz only like 6 of us, and we sat at KFC for like 1+ hours chatting coz some of us dun have enough money for movies........heard that EUNICE would be applying for HUMANITIES scholarship and i enquired abt it through mr krishnan and he said i shld take it , maybe i shld follow eunice choice of TJC based on my poor prelim results...

Hmm... I dun actuaclly noe wat to blog abt today. shld it be abt BOB??? but i m too sick and tired as i worn out my creative juices to insult him....He's smelly, weak in academics and everything's in him is different from human beings.....and becoZ of that , i still can't understand why GOD eva created such a useless "thing"... maybe GOD wants us to noe how smelly one can be if we do not bathe , how stupid one can be if he does not bother bout academics, how unkempt one can be if they dun bother bout self-image.....i think BOB is juz a perfect example and i really mean perfect example of wat a human beings shld not be as he is classified under "thing" and i guess his scientific name is 'HaMo Smelly", though close to the ' homo sapiens' but in appearance or hygiene , he is no where near humans......looking at him, i began to think of many things like why during oral examiners need to tables apart, it is becoz ppl like BOB would stink the examiners out and prevent the next few candidates grades to be affected as the examiners could not concentrate as the smekk continued to linger....ya and i also wonder how the hell is he going to get a wife in the future , u mean some gal as smelly as him, i think its impossible coz most gals are image conscious and will nvr leave their body to rot and smell like BOB, no matter how gals look they will not be smelly, so i guess BOB will not be able to find o life-long companion afterall.........And for this i really thank my lucky starz coz if he reproduce , his children will definitely have this 'STINKO syndrome' which is incurable at our present medical advancements due to the fact that the cause of this syndrome is still unknown.... coz it is not caused by viruses or bacteria or fungi, but is genetic mutation, which makes BOB stand (stink) out in front of human beings.....Hmm,,,, thats all for BOB taday, to catch the folowing espisodes plz view my blog 3 dayz later
