I went to Central with my mum just now to watch the contestants of the Academy! Sunsilk Academy Fantasia Singapore is a singing competition actually, whereby the contestants have to stay in a place to receive training during which they cant contact with other people. So its quite interesting that I can get to see them live! And my mum and I were standing at the second floor, when we saw two of the contestants who were out of the competition already, and we got to see them real close! I wanted to say Hi to them but!...... in the end decided not to. hahaha. Here are two videos that I took with my mum's digital camera. Zhang Chi and Hui Xian singing Jay Chou's 珊瑚海.
Irwin singing 韋禮安's 慢慢等.
I don't know why I cant upload this straight away from the computer, so I had to post it up on youtube before posting it here >< Byez! :D
Mr Tetris is my addiction. He is like my cigarette, alcohol and drug. Once I start, there is no stopping. He is not really that awesome-ly fun, but he just makes you want to continue playing. Every round is 2 minutes. After every round, I would tell myself, 'okay, I will just play one more round', but before I know it, many of my precious minutes have already gone by. Everytime I turn on my computer, Mr Tetris would pull me to him, and hold me tightly. I NEED TO STOP PLAYING! In case you don't know, I'm talking about a game on facebook called Tetris Battle. Its causing me to waste a lot of my time, which I could have spent on other more productive activities.
Anyways, I like this guy and the song he sang. But hes out of the competition already. :(
Yes, my preliminary exams starts tmr.. And I am not confident of doing well at all. Tmr is my GP paper and as I was revising, I feel that I am so unequipped with the contents required. AQ is one, the passage could come out on anything! It is so difficult to come up with examples to support your argument. Then there is the paper one. You have to have a balanced argument, with preferably 3 examples for each point. Arghhhhhh!! its so stressful! My wish is to enter the exam hall during Alevels and feel so confident and equipped with all the knowledge that I need! JYJYJYJY to myself and whoever is reading my blog!

So THANKS everyone who made my birthday a wonderful one! :) And I'm expecting to receive a nice card from SOMEONE who forgot to bring, and I'm going out with my friend later today! alright! woo. Looking forward manz! Thanks again bye! ^^v
I suddenly feel inspired to post after reading Paul Tan's tweet. 'I get bored sometimes doing JJ physics prelim paper. Haish'. I don't know whether he meant that its just boring and tiring to do these papers, or that its too easy. But I think he meant the latter, cuz Paul's really smart. So after reading his post, I was thinking, these are the people that I am competing against in the Alvls. My aim for Alvls is to get all As! maybe except for GP, but at least a B for GP. But its really difficult to achieve that. I have gone through around 14 years of education, and now, NOW is really the crucial period, as it will determine the course that I will get into in the University. Amidst this time of stress, I sometimes feel discouraged. It was just only where I felt that way, as I was doing a chemistry MCQ quiz and I had SO MUCH trouble doing it. How am I supposed to get A this way! Plus I have been getting U grade for econs, and I did not do as well as I expected for physics. Sometimes I feel compelled to work really hard, but there is really so much to study and sometimes I feel like just giving up, or just doing the minimum.
I just watched this video. And I find this person really amazing.. and insane. Seriously its SO DANGEROUS! my goodness!. Hahah. But its quite inspirational. After studying for so long, doing so many tutorials and practices, I should not just let go, but instead, continue to give my best shot at it. There is really not much time left to the Alvls and I should really maximize my time. Anyways I might be a little too greedy in wanting all As. I'm pretty interested in psychology and I think it requires a good grade for GP, and perhaps not so much on the content subjects, but getting good grades will give me more choices! But then, my good grades will be the expense of others good grades... hmm. Ohh, Ryan introduced me to a v v nice song. :D
Thank God Its Friday! yeaaaa really want to thank God for the awesome Fridays. My class ends at 12.30 on Fridays, so after school, many of my classmates will go to play frisbee! Most of the time I will join my classmates for frisbee, but because I'm in floorball for the tournament during PE lessons, I would go to play floorball if there are sticks, balls and people available. Its really awesome because we can finally take a break from the tiring and hectic Monday-Thursday, where there are extra lessons/lectures/quizzes/tests, and let ourselves loose on the field!
Today, I went to watch a classical guitar concert held in LT2 in school. I guess I don't really appreciate classical music, honestly I was a little bored, though they played really well.
Thereafter, I would head back home to bathe and slack for a little while before heading for dinner and tuition! Tuition is great too! Its kinda like a bonding time with Jingyu and Ivanka as we head for dinner together and after tuition, sometimes we would just walk around and .. yea! its great. I hope that the econs tuition that I'm having now will benefit me! Well, I think that its beneficial.. but the results aren't showing in my CT2. I got an U grade, so its kinda sad. Hahah i still thought that I would get around a D grade. :(. NVM I believe that the tuition will help.
Anyways, heres a video that Ivanka showed us. You might want to put on a eye piece to listen to it cuz it may be more funny. HAHA.
God is really awesome and great. What a loving and faithful God I have, for when I was at my lowest, when I felt so insignificant and depressed, God comforted me. He picked me up and I could walk again. I was in tears and He made me smile again. I just want to give thanks to God and never forget about the close encounters that I had with Him.
Last Sunday, God has revealed Himself to me again. During youth service, the main message that pastor Calvin shared was about giving our lives completely to God. So nearing the end of the service, a guitarist led us to sing The Stand by Hillsong United. As the music was being played and we were all singing, I could really feel the presence of the Holy Spirit in the room and it was so strong and abundant that everyone in the room were really worshiping and praising the Lord. Then pastor Calvin told us that if anyone wanted to come up to front to be prayed for we could do so. Usually, a typical Jeremy would just stay at his seat. But this time, the prompting was so strong, after a while, i went up to the front. As I was being prayed for, the Holy Spirit filled me and the presence of the Holy Spirit was so strong and powerful. I couldn't control all the tears and the liquid flowing out of my eyes and nose. They just flowed out and I was weeping so badly. God has touched me really deeply.
This is really an experience I do not want to ever forget.
