choir duty

OMG VANESSA!!!! same same!!!!! bio test was really ok you know! i was really calm before the test. and i was really awake! (though i was late for school and have to do CWO) HAH! i was really happy you know!!!
its really amazing. i was late for school but i wasnt really angry or anything. then i sat for my bio test! the teacher said we still have about 10 more mins before the test would start. everyone took out their bio textbook and tried to cramp it in. i was so calm i just sat there. and started telling my friend jokes. she was like mavis you not studying? i just replied, huh no la. haha everyone was so panicky except for my another class mate. hah, then, AMAZING. all the small details i studied came out!!! hahaha omgg i was laughing to myself in the test. i could remember which experiment it was and all the stomata thing!!! i was really happy. i wasnt even scared!
then i just had another 2 more lessons before school ended. there was early dismissal because of speech day. then, i told my friend to get a cake for veneetha because it was her birthday the next day, which is today. and ask her to walk in while we are practising to surprise her. then she went off to go get the cake. at the rehersals i told my teacher about it then she said cannot because there was no lunch! i was really panicky because i could not contact her, i didnt have my phone with me. then i ran down to ask my other friend to call that friend to tell her she cant get it. hah are you guys confused?
haha then back at the pracitce session i was really sad. the trainer kept on scolding us and i kept on making mistakes when the performance was later. she called us in and gave us a talk. she said you guys have to work faster. we are going to break later at 1 30 for lunch. i was like WHAT?!?! so i hurried back to my bag to sms my friend to go get the cake. i could not even read her reply because the trainer continued prac. i was like really 'hands and legs all over' hahaha translate to chinese.
then 1 30 came. i ran all the way to the canteen to try and call her. and woooph, before i took out my phone i saw her walking in. HAHA i was so crazy! i was jumping up and down. we hurry lit the candles and went to surprise the birthday girl. haha she was really shocked but happy la. (: glad she was. (she was quite sad that she wont be in singapore on her birthday and we couldnt celebrate it with her)
oh well then after eating the cake we had to start to rush for the performance, make up and everything we were so scared we could not finsih it on time. haha in the end we waited for more than a hour before we were called up. we kinda rushed in the performance, and were so scared the trainer would kill us. we walked back to the training room. sat there and was so emotional. she came in, sat down, and kept quiet. then she stood up and said. lets have a group hug! HAHA WE SCREAMED LIKE CRAZY haha so overjoyed. i was stoning there for a moment. until 5 seconds later i realised what was going on.
WEE i was really happy later. and i realised that it was all god's grace. and that i honoured him. everything turned out really well. enough though i only studied for bio on the bus, had so much problems to get the cake and it was unplanned. also to finish off the day with a good performance, though i didnt practice much for it and it was a last minute change. oh ya i forgot to tell you all that they only changed the dance on thursday! so yea. i really thank god for it.
oh yes at choir practice! i was so prominent. like usual. hahhaa but oh well. GOS LOVES ME AND I DONT CARE.

God will make a way

I am currently posting with a blocked runny nose (don't ask how that's even possible) and sore throat and when I spoke to my mother on the phone it sounded kinda like this "Hello, bubby, do lah it's all de dust (sniffs) cause i'm packing de stuff into de boxes (sniffs) yub i'm finde. (sniffs)" really. okay maybe not that drama lah haha i'm exaggerating a bit but yeah it's terrible.

Anyway, wanted to post today, I'm Vanessa, by the way haha, about choir. (: Want to let all you darlings know that when we honour God and put Him first in our lives, He will put in His 100% for us and make a way, even when there seems to be no way. He works in ways, we cannot see. He will make a way for me. (:

That day, I might have shared with Mavis, i think. haha forgot sorry. I had dance and of all days that day was torture day. I emerged from the hall dripping from every pore in my body, my head spinning and throbbing all at the same time, my eyelids droopy, my muscles aching, my limbs weak, waves of nausea pulsing through me... (okay so i kinda exaggerated, heh but i really felt like throwing up all over the car and just lying on the bed to sleep)

so ya I felt so sick I was so tempted to tell Dawn that I was sick and couldn't make it. Add to the fact that I had A math test the nest day and A math is my worst subject. I felt so terrible that when I reached home, I couldn't even make it to the toilet to bathe. I sat on the floor with my head between my knees for five minutes to stop myself from fainting before rushing to finish bathing in 15 minutes. Rushed through my dinner too, and was so dazed I took mismatched clothes that made me look like shit to wear and rushed off after an equally rushed dinner.

In the car, my father was still telling me that if I felt so tired I might as well not go and I really felt SO SO SO tempted. I was so tired I fell asleep in the car halfway through while talking to my father. My father said a quick prayer for me and A math textbook and little else in hand, I got off still a little drowsy to meet Gayle at TCT auditorium. Went inside and felt kinda lethargic-ish.

Then the worship leader guy, Thomas was like how many of you here are not fully ready to worship God? and i was like oh my gosh. ME! he prayed for us and everything and then we went off to learn the actions and albeit some muscle aches, I can proudly declare I was more awake than Gayle! haha. And really amazingly, all the tiredness seriously left me and most amazing was, the A math test the next day was actually MANAGEABLE. like :0 praise God! hahahahaha.

so yeah, just want to encourage you guys that sometimes when we feel like shit and worshipping and praising God is the last thing on our minds, that could be a sure method to make your day and clean you up of all the shit. Even though mine was kinda forced, I'm glad I was 'forced', because I know God worked in a very special way for me (: and Mavis I know you're very busy on thurs and have bio on friday, but it's okay, God will lift your spirit and energize you to do exceedingly well for your test, yes? <3

Love all of you dearies, and see you on sunday! :D

VANESSA!

Thanksgiving for 40 days fast and prayer! =)

Hallo everyone,

As most of you know, I am going to Legal Aid Bureau to work in August and it is a government agency to help those who cannot afford lawyers but need legal aid.

As I am reading the 40 days fast and prayer booklet, I am really thankful that God is so good to me, and has planned my life and my career. As most of the 40 days fast and prayer booklet is about God's heart for the poor and needy, I was affirmed that it is indeed God's call for me to go to Legal Aid Bureau at this time, to serve the poor and needy and make a difference for His glory.

God is indeed good because He is preparing my heart to go into my new job at Legal Aid with this 40 days fast and prayer. I had wanted a longer break between jobs so I could among other things prepare for my wedding and also prepare myself for my new job, but I did not get a long break. But God had planned it that he was preparing my heart now (before my break and better than I can ever plan the preparation of my heart) with the 40 days fast and prayer. He is giving me His compassion for the poor and needy and also building my faith that He will do more than all I can ask or imagine in my new job.

Wanna bless everyone that indeed God is good to you and He plans every detail of your life. =)
Wanna bless everyone too that we will be givers of God's love and compassion (and not be like the container that keeps receiving though it is full and becomes useless). =)

MAGICBOX!

Hello my dear family! Vanessa here! You should all post more, you know. Can you hear that? Listen really carefully.


"creee, creee..."



Can't you hear the sounds of the crickets chirping at you so joyfully?? Tsk tsk. We should all be ashamed of ourselves. Let's put on sackcloths and repent. Okay okay, I should stop being stupid. heh. :D anyway.

I'll be going to watch Magicbox with my parents this coming saturday, and I'm really excited about it. Thing is, I heard from my cousin that things have beengoing a little wrong with the sets and cues and stuff. Something like, the spikes did not fall as planned in one of the shows and it's obviously NOT a good thing.

I really feel that the evil one is doing all that he can to wreck this show and make a mess out of it because he cannot stand seeing pastor khong 'invading his territory' since that was the main media he wanted to win the world by. Can I please solicit for all your prayers in this time.

Not just because he is our pastor and we're afraid it will make FCBC look bad but think about the adverse effects of this if people start to look at this pastor as if he's unprofessional and feeling that his God can't be so great after all if He can't even help him make the show a success.

That would be really sad. So come on, let's all rally together and pray for the rest of the shows and for pastor khong and everything okay!

oh yes, there's a whole 2-page article written about Magicbox, ps khong and priscilla in 8 days! it's 'the sexist issue' the one with christopher lee, joanne peh and dawn yeoh on the cover. READ IT OKAY! i'm really proud of them! :D heh.

okay so yeah, do keep me in prayer as well, please? i have ting xie tomorrow. hahaha. trying my best to study for it! :D thanks you all, have a terrific week ahead yes yes? MUCH LOVE TO ALL YOU! <3

Love, VANESSA!

P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JASMIN! GOD BLESS YOU IN EVERYTHING! HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE! WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH TOOOO! (:

CELL OUTING!

hihi all you! Vanessa, here to post bout cell outing! hahaha. first one that Mavis did not attend (:D) though she really should have. (:



okay that was after shirlynn pushed me into the water and i was trying to get back at her. heh. pulling like mad. elkan snapped it. hahaha.



self-timer! hahaha. the four pretty girls (: joline, shirlynn, gayle and me (frm left to right)



Bryan being buried in the sand!



That's us again! Elkan took this picture too. He took pictures of infected oily toes on his own camera. HAHAHA.

okay anyway, cell outing today was, hmm. quite fun! hahaha. but kinda annoying toooo. hmph. Bryan lahhhh. And Shirlynn Tan! Grr. ANNOYING THE TWO OF THEM! See, I brought extra clothes but forgot to bring extra undergarments. So i did NOT want to go into the water because i was going out after that with my mother. But stoooopid Bryan who obviously could dive in and swim around like a fish because he brought extra everything (even towel and shampoo and soap and stuff) decided that he was lonely.

And stoooooooooooopider Shirlynn who is supposed to be my darling sister, helped him drag and shove me into the water. :s thanks a lot, Shirlynn! i later just HAD to take revenge on her and succeeded in dragging Shirlynn into the water, shrieking and flailing her arms like a madwoman, with Bryan's help. hehehehe. so ya then joline and gayle emo-ed a bit while we built some sandcastles and stuff. then cause the girls were lazy so we sat around and played with sand while the guys went to cycle so ya. then we were all SO SANDY!

except joline and gayle cause they refused to let us pull them in, and bryan who showered. so it was really gross cause my undies were like. Dripping. oh oh and we all got these weird oil stains on our feet! ): it was really gross and culdn't come off! D: Elkan thought it was some disease or infection or smth. hahaha. he's got pictures of it on his camera. anyway. so then yeah that was about it. we left soon after. so yup that's all, haha. Good night all you! Have a great day at school tmr! (: LOVE YOU ALL LOADS AND LOADS! :D


VANESSA! <3
