term2,2007
It is a wet Sunday evening here in Adelaide, Australia. The next 2 - 3 hours or so would be spent in church and the hours after that would be spent getting ready for the routined life of a year 12 student. GAH.. I am really dreading it.
This means...
NO MORE late, late nights doing... NOTHING...
NO MORE waking up after 12 in the afternoon...
NO MORE movie marathons...
NO MORE pictionary hang outs...
NO MORE LAZING around doing NOTHING... this is pretty much the only thing I did ALL holiday... Did I mention it was great? Well, it was GREAT!!!
NO MORE time to spend reading blogs...
NO MORE hours of chattin online...
NO MORE hanging on the phone till the wee hours of the morning...
NO MORE... for the next 11 weeks...
This also means...
Staying up LATE finishing assignments...
Back to the boring routine of school life...
Back to the usual conversations like..."did you finish your bio prac?"...or..."have you written that 800 word report?"...or..."have you handed in your drama text response draft?"...or..."when is our business studies test?"...
Back to working hard and rushing to finish the never ending truck load of this thing called SCHOOL WORK...what JOY...
Back to ugly winter uniform...
Back to 730 mornings...
Back to formal night arguments...
Back to Torrens Valley's GREAT year 12 common room...
Back to those lockers that do not fit half our folders...
Back to the hat rule...
Back to S3 care group... Mrs. Broughton? Mr. Pompeuse?
Back to the bio lab...
SIGH... I could go on...
but, I guess, best of all, I'll be forced to be productive and I'll be forced to say "NO MORE" to my lazyness!! God, help me...
3 weeks of holiday have now come to an end... term 2 starts tomorrow... SIGH...
People have been telling me to treassure the next few months, because in about 6 months,I will officially be done with high school... Goodnesss... It really is hard to believe...
So, term 2, here I come... BRING IT ON!!!! hahah... :D
Have a good one everyone!

Inspired by a friend..
I was reading a friends blog, another holiday past time.. He was talking about being child-like in our faith..
To quote him,
Am I worth all that trouble? Am I really living up to my worth? Shucks, am I disappointing Him again? Too filthy to be hugged by Him? Too smelly to be embraced? NEVER!!! shouts a friend at my face, He ain’t looking for a perfect heart, there can never be one. He is looking for an obedient one, and one that is willing to be used by Him.
Last week wasn't easy for me. I messed up pretty bad..AGAIN.. and i hated myself for it.. I hated the fact that i had asked God over and over again to forgive me, and to give me another chance, and He always did.. but i could not even keep to my part of the bargain and live pleasing to Him..
I messed up again last week and i really felt as though i could not ask for forgiveness again, I felt exactly as how my friend had said it.. and I walked around the house feeling absolutely disgusted with myself for not being strong enough and messing up AGAIN..
However, i had friends remind me over and over again that God sees the heart.. a heart that wants to do right and wants to please Him, a heart that wants to be obedient to the word of God, a heart that wants to work at doing what is pleasing unto Him.. Someone that is willing to be used by God..
Anyway, as i read my bible and worked on the mistakes that i had made and coming before God and asking Him to make me pure and Holy before Him, I couldn't help but tell Him how much I love Him and how much i really really really want to do right in everything I do.. And i realized it is because i love Him so much that i want to work at doing my life right and living according to His word..
My God gave up everything for me.. EVERYTHING.. He gave His ONLY son to die such a horrible death for me and for you.. The least I could do, is owe Him my life..and to live for Him whole-heartedly..
I owe God living right..
I owe God loving Him right..
I owe God the highest praise..
I owe God my time..
I owe God being disciplined so that i can study His word and get to KNOW Him..
I owe God everything..
I love my God so much.. I love Him with all my heart.. I want to make Him happy.. I want to have Him say He is proud of me.. I want Him to say, "well done my faithful servant"..
Doesn't mean I wont mess up... Doesn't mean I will have everything together all the time.. It only shows me how much more I NEED my God to lead me and guide me... I want Him to fix my attitude.. and my character.. I want him to craft me in to the young lady I am meant to be..
Psalms 139: 7-10Where can I go to get away from your Spirit?Where can i run from You?If I go up to the heavens, You are there.If I lie down in the grave, You are there.If I rise with the sun in the east and settle in the west beyond the sea,even there you would guide me.With Your right hand you would hold me.
And when I am weak and mess up.. I will know that:
2 Corinthians 12:9"My grace is enough for you. When you are weak, My power is made perfect for you." So I am very happy to brag about my weaknesses, Then Christ's power can live in me.More than anything God, i want Your power to break me and mold me and make me whole so that You may use me for the extension of You kingdom and to bring glory and honor to Your name. Amen.

boring week
So right, one entire week of holidays have gone by.. What have i done? NOTHING..
Nothing productive like school work i mean.. Ive been so LAZY.. Even sitting at home doing absolutely nothing is better than picking up my biology book and starting on ANY essay..
I have so much school work to finish by the end the holidays.. which by the way, ends in 2 weeks.. I will be in so much trouble if i don't motivate myself to start somewhere and SOOON..
Ive found that since coming back from Malaysia early this year, ive discovered a new love for sleeping!! All i wanna do is SLEEP.. And thats exactly what ive been doing all week.. Been sleeping for more than 10 hours.. Been waking up at 12pm everyday.. Waking up..watching tele..spending many hours on the internet..occasionally going out..usually only to blockbuster to rent more dvd's to waste more of my precious time away in front of the tele.. Its been a relatively boring week except for certain people who make it so special, but even though its boring, its better then having to get up at 7am and spending the whole day in school!!! ANY DAY!! :D :D
Nicci really really really needs to start her school work.. GAH.. I hate this lazy, lethargic feeling already..
Yesterday was a really good day... Went to church in the morning, then we came back home and played pictionary.. Lynn was hilarious.. NO.. wait.. Yun's drawing of her leaping frog with a VERY long tongue was even more hilarious!!!
We decided to stay home and not go for evening service to watch Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham.. i know.. i know.. stop shaking your head.. Sucked into watching this movie with my mum and I were, Sun, Gracie, David, Zie, Ben, Misha and Ryan. By the end of the movie, mum and I had tears streaming down our faces!!! Even though its was our 10th time watching it.. I definitely recommend this show!!!!! :P :P :P
We then headed to the girls house to eat some Chinese vinegar dish.. :D
We then played pictionary and taboo till one in the morning!! It was so much fun!! For pictures, check out
Kelsey's blog.It was good good fun..
It was a really good day.. This morning, i woke up at 1 in the afternoon.. I felt so LAZY! GAH.. I actually set my alarm clock for 9.45am.. what were the chances of waking up... HAHHAH!!
Anyway.. thats a little update for whoever who reads my blog!!!! :P :P :P

......
Dear God... I need You soooooooo bad...
Now I come right before You,
With my hands lifted high,
And my heart humbly bowed at the work on the cross,
As You hung there and died You were paying the price for my life,
For MY life....
Thank You God, Thank You so much for always giving me another chance... I am going to work at not letting You down...
