37.6 degrees

today i had a fever ...not really a high one but it's a one that will burnt up my face and makes my face looks really red and of course hot.this is when i slowly picked myself up and get a thermometer.''beep'' the thermometer sounded and there i got 37.6 degrees.i started taking the medicine that the doctor had prescribe me previously when i am on fever .the medicine was pink in colour and was of course like normal medicine,bitter.
after taking the medicine,i felt lethargic and when i need to get up,i felt a little drowsy,as followed on the package that the medicine will cause drowsiness.i had also used numerous ice packs.i think i had used at least 5 of them .taking them out from the freezer,used them till they aren't cold,wash them and placed them in the freezer .the steps continued over and over again.until now ,the fever had finally subsided .although not sure that whether it will rise again...cause yesterday it started then subsided and today rise again...
i had to call my best friend(from primary school till now) called Eunice that i may not be able to meet her tomorrow...
Lord,bless me that i have a good health to go for drills and also offer my 100 percent to you.

When you've prayed every prayer that you know how to pray.
Just remember the Lord will hear and the answer is on it's way.
Our God is able.
He is mighty.
He is faithful.
And He never sleeps,He never slumbers.
He never tires of hearing our prayer.
When we are weak
He becomes stronger. So rest in His love and cast all of your cares on Him.
Do you feel that the Lord has forgotten your need.
Just remember that God is always working in ways you cannot see
Our God is able.
He is mighty.
He is faithful.

so i hope this song will encourage every one who see this entry and lets learn to cast our cares upon our GOD in heaven.

after a week of wheel...busy week...

today was a thursday,as usual i went for school.recalling about the time i had been in the kindergarten to sort of be an assistant teacher,i really miss the childrens in k2 kindness and k2 gentle.wheel was really a very fruitful week and i get to help and teach the childrens and taste the delicious food that auntie ang had cooked.really miss her cooking too!i think if caryn,annajoy or piaomin had seen this,they will agree with me.now,it is all back to normal,all day long busying about studying,doing projects and all that.kind of stressed up...anyway,today i went to ecareer,a really useful webpage and did some surveys and the jobs that they say that suited me was such as kindergarten principal,school councillors,childcare supervisors and all that.and then later on after lunch,i went for devotion practice ... co leading tomorrow.really pray that the lord will continue to show his grace and mercy and provide me with strength !

first day of local service learning

On the first day of service learning,i went to clementi woods kindergarten to help out.the kids were really cute and independent.each of them placed their folders and waterbottles on the trolleys or trays that had their class name on it .then they proceed on to temperature taking .Me ,annajoy,piaomin and caryn then look around in the kindergarten.It was really big as compared to the last time when i studied in clementi woods kindergarten.today,i met many familiar faces .this includes my ex teachers,bus aunties and uncles.i kind of feel that time passed so quickly,just like a flash of light.recalling the past,i felt a little nostalgic about being a child.i think that the local service learning continue to inspire me to be a teacher.Although today i stayed in a room with my friends ,wrapping presents,designing the cards,i felt not just tired but also happy.it is because i get to work with my friends and share our views about being a kindergarten teacher.one of my friend said that it was cool to be a kindergarten teacher and i felt so too.so,although i am feeling tired i still felt worthwhile.really looking forward to interact with the childrens on thurs and fri.perhaps then i will be even more elated about the work i am doing and really be really inspired to be one.and i think this will help me to be motivated to be one.one of my good friend in gb ,rachel ,always say that i am going to be a teacher .because as you know,my name is edwina lau shi wen .she take the lau and my chinese name's "shi",then you add them together and you will get "laushi" and she decipher it as "laoshi".which means teacher in chinese.haha...so just continue to pray for me about my ambition to be a chinese teacher and that i may be able to do well for the following test after the wheel week.
