There is a difference between "Can I?" and "May I?"
It's so amazing to me that i have to blog about this.
No lah i just want an excuse to slack =D.

The formula for falling sick:
Mountain-load of uncleared tutorials + Crappy E-learning + Weather that mood-swings + Many many many chocolates and fast-food + Family day (oh gosh) - Sufficient sleep and rest - Relaxation - God _________________________________ = a bout of flu _________________________________
Who says you fall sick only with complex numbers!

Lesson learnt: Never procastinate.
Especially when everything has to be rushed with no delays accepted.

Term 2 will begin in 15mins time.
Not so much of a holiday this week has been, though i must admit i indeed have more time to allocate to what i want/need. Still, i had a good break albeit a short one.
Ever-ready to take on term 2!
Theme verse for the next 10 weeks:
Psalm 118:6 "The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can human beings do to me?"
I've said this countless of times before, but let this be the last time i will say this.
Let go, will ya?

I'm loving the drums even more now.
Whether is it playing to simple tunes, hardcore practice or simply just sit nearby and watch, i will be more than happy already.
It gives me the freedom to choose what to play. It gives me the liberty to play what i want. It allows me to see and hear instantly my choices of the beats/sounds.
In life, do we get to enjoy such unrestricted decisions? Very seldom, indeed.
I think, let us find time to do what we really enjoy before we find ourselves out of time, when the reality kicks in.

Life is full of choices to make.
There are some i rather have no choice to make, but i have to decide anyway.
While there are also others i have no choice to make, even though i really want to make.
Will you be one of them?
Let everything comes full circle and end it all, shall we?

Philipians 4:8
"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praise worthy - think about such things."
For i don't know well enough what do i want, but i do know what He wants for me.

PHS won the north zone basketball championships once again, after 6 years of waiting.
And that reminded me of two years ago, when we were the ones fighting for it. We never got it in the end, but we are proud to make it there.
Still, watching our juniors getting what we hoped for can be sweet and sour at the same time too.
A levels results got released, and i got bewildered by the high scores some has gotten. People i knew (eg. ex-PHS student getting 90 rank points) and people i've seen/heard of, who owned the papers like nobody's business.
Yet people i have expected to really get flying colours didn't manage to do so this time round.
Makes me pretty worried for my own self. Even as i told God to decide my results for me, i still can't help feeling the pressure on me to get what i want.
Just FYI, i silver-ed my NAPFA and ace-ed my chinese today.
But then again, if life is all about results, what would the meaning of life be?
As for your grades? Awards? Recognitions? Scholarships? Winning?
They seems so important, so far-away from us. Which is why we spent our lives chasing after them?
They will, after all, fade away in a matter of time.
Still, i can't help but ponder at times: Just what do i want?
They are just too many things that we desire and seek, but they will surely confict with one another.
Ultimately, its your choice to prioritise and decide for yourselves: Just what do you want?

Today marks another significant milestone in my school life as i have learnt another precious lesson and i will never forget.
Homework is not done unless it has been submitted.
Just imagine yourself doing homework until the wee hours of the night (for instance 2am), trying to put your heart and soul into a long piece of assignment (say, a 4 pages long econs essay). Your eyes hurt as you deprive yourself of sleep so that you can finish it and submit the next day (or rather, a few hours later).
You finishes it, and thank God for the 1486175th time.
You save the file, printed it out and looked through it for some final amendments.
You heave a sign of relief and place it into the econs notes to keep organised.
And you conveniently leave it aside without placing it into your bag.
(insert crying face here)

Suddenly i realised, i need more of the magic four-letter word: TIME
(not the TIME magazine, mind you)
Time for many people, time for many work, time for God, time for myself.
And March will be another crazy month all over again.
So pardon my absence then =D
Everything was done, So you would come.

"But those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not be faint.
- Isaiah 40:31
