Here's an update I owe many people, especially for those old friends faithfully checking back. Promos are over (if you haven't realized), so is Chinese, which I'm quite confident of passing this time round, I'll tell the story next time, perhaps later if I have time. PW's oral presentation is on Thursday, which, to me seems so inconsequential compared to Chinese. Yup, but I'll do it. I'll be leaving for Sarawak for Overseas CIP on 17th to teach some children English, well at least, to use English properly. And then, I might be OGL, which I'm still unsure of, and will be taking Physics H3 next year on relativity and quantam mechanics. Oh yeah, I'll be carolling too this december, I'll give the details soon!

I really do quite a bad job at talking about my life huh? I guess that's why I don't usually do it on my blog. These things are not that interesting, or to be concerned about. They're just passing moments of a really short life. What matters is eternity, which we all should be looking towards.

Alright, here's the story of Chinese. I'll rush it and go do my lessons for OCIP... I was studying the day before, reading the passages that were not tested yet, and attempted to practice them. Well, I ended up practicing only one of the ten passages and reading 4. It was already 11pm, so I gave up and told God to do whatever, and do His stuff like He always does. I guess I knew He would, having gone through this many times, though the first time I'm telling anyone now. I read the Bible before I slept, and God led me to Isaiah 40:12, 29-31.

¹² Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand,
or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens?
Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket,
or weighed the mountains on the scales
and the hills in a balance?

²⁹ He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

³⁰ Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;

³¹ 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.

I'll say truthfully, after I read it, I felt I could get an A for Chinese. But it was not the grade that mattered anymore. God reminded me of His strength, compared to the rest of the world and the world's problems. They are nothing. And my fear vanished totally. I don't care what grade I'll get, I know His strength is enough, and I'll continue to run without weariness, to walk strong-heartedly.

The next day was Chinese, and when I got the paper 2, the first thing I saw was the exact questions I did while practicing for the 1 out of 10 passages that could be tested. And I just laughed. Silently of course.. For about 5 mins. The examiners standing around might have thought I went mad.. haha..

Later in the week, God prompted me to keep my promise, the promise I made the night before the paper. I would give a testimony when the results are out, because I know I don't have to fear it in the Name of the Lord. Well, this one's a preview.

I just realized I also don't often post testimonies here. I suppose it turned out quite well.. better than narrating my life..
