epiphany
silent trepidation as the truth draws near...
the finality in things, yet there is more to life most definitely.
Just a wrapping up of sorts, yet, an unwrapping of sorts--to reveal.
im scared. Nervous, trying to trust but it's really hard.
You reap what you sow, but sometimes...you don't.
the brutal unknown.
I wish i really had more faith or,
put aside the typical mindset of s'poreans
the paperchase, prints of accolades.
Still it's more than just the pretty grades.
is it prove of effort? worth?
I don't know.
It's self-satisfaction, self-gratification.
Beneath all the words of comfort, encouragement and wisdom
Beneath the inspiring anecdotes of people who chose the path not normally taken,
Beneath the shrugging off, the facades of cool indifference..
We all hope for the best despite expecting the worst.
So as the day draws nearer, i really pray for peace and strength through it all:)

a slice of silence
Today wuz one of the more peaceful mornings i've had in quite a long time, it's good to rise early i say:) But sigh the day will soon be swamped with activities and the busyness will yet again suck me into that vortex...but today looking at my to-do list, it's really comparatively slack in relation to that of last week. Crazy! Last week wuz pretty insanical, enjoyable to a certain degree but busy. I sense a certain dejavu in my life...this is juz like last year...the busyness the many activites. Where is the time to smell the roses i say?
But through it all im glad i still manage to start the day with Him, really need it. And on Sundays, glad i can be refreshed once more to face the crazy week ahead.
We-ell...i kinda dread march cuz it will be the start of my new job at ISS(international sch of s'pore). The working hours will be long and early. No diff from gg to school i say:( 7.30am-4.30pm. Woah. I feel tired already juz thinking abt it. Plus the job scope requires me to look after kids ages 3 to 4. I like kids...but after my current stint at Canadian international...i'm beginning to reconsider my qualifications to handle such kid-related jobs...
I tell u ah...they really bully me you know!! Sobz. Because they know i won't really scold them. But how to scold? They r so cute...Bleagh.
Anywayz...it wuz a false alarm after all...A-level results didn't come out last fri. Ha and i wuz all ready to receive it with open arms..even informed e principal tt i may not be coming that day:p Sat wuz FunORama! Real fun:) Helped out at the corporate gift store...really made the whole day much more enjoyable!! Will do it again if i had the chance. And my catching skills for the tees really improved too haha...yeah lah wuz really paiseh when i missed the tees being thrown at me:p
So there, this year so far is gg well will be rather sad when it ends cuz tt would mean im no longer a teen anymore!!! Sobz. Will celebrate the entering of my last teen year in 2 days time...man when we all look at this way, next year seems so gloomy. Haha...
