WHOO HOOOO!! SYF was a blast, and guess we got! GOLD WITH HONOURS!! i tell you, there is nothing that could compare to this joy that we had yesterday, and i'm sure that whenever we think of it, we'll be able to feel that joy again.


I tell you, GOd is AWESOME! One personal testimony i have goes like this. We were having out last day of practice on thursday afternoon. It was already 5pm, and we were still making mistakes everywhere, the timing was kinda out too. Even I kept making mistakes! So we said that we better start clearing up cos it was getting quite late. We gathered together to pray for the grp, and we could literally feel each other's "kan chiongness". Yup, we wanted to play again, but there were still mistakes everywhere. So we told them to pack up, go home and sleep! We were all praying for a miracle to happen for the next day, and we knew that He would be gracious.


So the next day, we reached school at 6.40 plus, changed into our LOVELY gowns, put on makeup, then went to practice for a while. i tell you, God is AWESOME!! That VERY morning, our hands and ears jus coordinated as ONE man. Every note was exactly in place, it was the exact timing, the semiquavers came in exactly in the centre of the quavers, chords dynamics was fantastic, melody was SUPERB, bass was unusually consistent, and the chimes were ever wonderful!! In my heart, i could not help, but keep saying "Thank you lord thank you Lord". One of our school teachers told me "You all don't have to worry, cos there's one thing that makes us different from everyone else. We have God with us." AMEN!!!


We reached SingaporeConferenceHall, and ZhengHua and RGS were there already. Had to act and look super cool man. HAHA! scare everyone, yeah rite..HEHE. We went to our holding room then there was this white board there that read "PLMGS JIA YOU!". So touching man..Don't know who wrote it somemore. Could be the harp gals(highly unlikely), but could be the SCO pple!! Since we've been there quite a no. of times and they love us. It was grt to be at a familiar place to perform again, seeing a few familiar faces here and there from the SCO. It helped to calm our nerves man.


We stood back stage waiting for the school b4 us. I was feeling super nervous, but cannot show to the rest wat, so act cool like sia. Finally couldn't tahan, kept wantin to talk, but cannot. HAIYO, agony man!!AFter a lifetime of waiting, we finally went in. I shall not elaborate on the MINOR MISTAKES (Wanyi, you know what i mean), but the 2 songs 13 Falling Leaves and Xin Yuan Yang Hu Die Meng were FANTASTIC! IT was Marvellous!!


We watched the other 5 schools perform and they were jus as good, some even "terrorized" us. Then came the RESULTS! We were holding, no, GRIPPING each other's hand like siao. Finally, "Paya Lebar Methodist Girls Schoool (Secondary)..GOLD. with HONOURS!!" a few of us actually jumped out of ours seats i tell you, and we were crying like siao. It was splendid. As i think back on the event yest, i still feel the joy in our hearts.


We went back to school. Made our presence known by doing super loud cheers at the basketball court, and singing "To God be the Glory" super loudly. Went to eat at a restaurant to celebrate, then went back to sch to prepare for art's fest. It was fantastic, both the matinee and evening performance. Even when MR FONG wasnt' there to conduct us during the matinee, it was still grt man!! we even had standing ovation during the evening performance. DON't play play!! When we were waiting for our turn to perform in the evening, instead of sittin ard, we were actually dancin and singin like nobody's business man. "As..we walk to the left, as we walk to the right, as we walk as we walk as we walk all night, with a heel and a toe and a half turn round, with a heel and a toe and a new fren found!!!" Lame song, but EVERYONE was dancing and singing, displayed our team spirit man!!


The night finally came to end, we were like snatching to take photo with Mr fong. Too bad, we love him too much lah.


This SYF has been a truely life-enriching and wonderful experience. And everyone who was in it was a blessing in my life one way or another! 3 cheers and 3 cheers and 3 cheers for HANDBELLS! Hip-hip-HOORAY!Hip-hip-HOORAY!Hip-hip-HOORAY!

I'm back! It's been an ultra long time since i blogged, considering the fact that i usually update my blog quite regularly. But i realized everyone's blog is also becoming quite stagnent. Hahaha. I'm feeling ultra guilty doing this now, cos i'm sitting for a paper tmr. Pengs..


Anyway, went to the gym with huiling yest. There was this weird guy that came into the gym, then he "tried" everything for a minute or 2 then left. (He went to carry weights that were too heavy for him, ran on the trackmill for like 2 mins, then tried some other stuff abit here and there.)Haha, why am i talkin about this weird guy man....-_-"


We had celebration sunday today, ending the 40 days purpose driven life campaign. Everyone was back at the legends. Was supposed to be dancing, but da worship leader got no keyboardist. Heh heh.So was playing the keyboard again lah. I kept going to the toilet during the mini service thing. Oh well, can't halp it wattt. We had buffet lunch after that, man, the children's food like so much better can. But we all must be grateful fer wat we have lah..HAHA. So i ate quite alott can!!


Oh you know, eating apple every recess can help u lose weight? Haha, how would i know? Cos i tried it lahhhh..yar, so i'm losing weight! WHEEE~ my aim:3kg! not bad, i'm sure i can do it!!!


So many events have happened during this short period of time that i have not been blogging. Syf is jus this friday, freaked out by it already. PLS PRAY FOR US! We's gonna aim to get that gold with honours man!! School work has been really tough, it seems never-ending. Sometimes i think to myself: would i regret studying so hard? Cos rite now, i'm studying so much, and neglectin my church friends. I even hardly get to see u guys nowadays. I wonder to myself, at the end of the day, will i lose all these wonderful frens that ihave, jus over my studies? But all i can think about now is to be focused on my studies. I dun even have the so-called energy to want to worry about these stuff. Arghh...i dun wanna talk about this.


Exams are JUST round the corner, and they end on the 17th of may. That leaves THIRTEEN days for chinese O's. SUPER FAST!!! why is this yr passing so fast, or isit jus becos i'm taking o levels. Haiyooo okay now, i know the entry's kinda short, but i gotta go eat dinner, and start mugging for music tmr. PHEWWW~


on a lighter note, i'm glad we talked today, though it was just a short conversatoin. It made me feel so much better after what we had. :)
