My supposed meeting with my friends

today is the 24th of june ,which was supposed to be a day of fun with friends.however, we did not meet up successfully.this was because rebekah and tiffany are busy coping with their exams in their junior college.Moreover,annajoy and i have been sick for the past few days because of sorethroat,slight fever and flu.thus, there is only angeline who was free and available.As such, we had to cancel our trip to the zoo.i really hope that we will catch up really soon,probably in september or december ,so that we can find out whether each of us are doing well in our schools.i really have not been catching up with friends in secondary schools since april, when we all go our separate colleges and polytechnic.nyp has been great and though i met many friends in school who are in the caring and helping profession,i still missed the happy moments with my friends in secondary school.lol.it is only when we goes separate ways then we realise how our friendship are so precious,friends.but i believe that the lord will always lead you and bless you always so that we will be still and know that he is God,that his healing hands heal the poor and broken and he is a God with abounding love.

time to catch up with each other friends!

today is the 20th june and it was a day to catch up with my friends!best friends in secondary school !actually this meeting was supposed to be more lively,with at least 4 friends.however,many of them can not make it.so sad. in the end only rachel and annajoy came.rachel is still as lively and cheerful as ever.everytime i see her ,i feel so happy because she is a good listener,confidante and a friend. of course, annajoy came too and we all had fish and co together. it comes along with a maincourse ,soup and dessert. i love the dessert.i find it quite special with the top layer of chocolate and the bottom layer of custard. like always,dining with friends is always a time to share our daily experiences,the ups and down. But i am very glad that all of us had been coping well in the new environment and are adapting well.after lunch aj had to go home because she did not sleep enough and is rather knackered today.thus,the only one left is rachel and i .however,though today many friends did not turn up as promised,we still had a very enjoyable meeting.we walk around somerset ,orchard. firstly we took neoprints even though we had problems locating the place and understanding the japanese words as stated on the neoprint machine.haha,but we still have our photos taken. After that we went for ice cream.which was what rachel missed most.haha.rach has been studying so much that she did not have the time to each icecream.we saw an ice cream which was blue in colour. the blue was rather vibrant and rach ask me to buy it and taste it before she does so that she will not drop dead.lol.but please do not be mistaken.there is no alcohol in it that will cause death.haha.we eventually went to eat chocolate ice cream with cookie dough and then went to shop again.But i am really thankful that i have a chance to meet rachel and eat ice cream cause it was really a rare chance because in reality we hardly can spend time together as we are not in the same school as before.being with rachel also encourages me as rachel also encourage me in what i am doing and her encouragement spurs me to do better.i will continue to pray that the lord will continue to strengthen her in her life and give her the wisdom in her studies so that she can soar even higher.jiayou rachel!And keep in touch my friend!let your cheerfulness continue to be a sunshine in others' life!friends forever!

flu and sick

today, i felt as is my day is like a rollercoaster.this was becausei had two major test in a row.it is kind of draining and sick.when i completed a major test or cross over an obstacles,i still have another.But thank God for blessing me as not all people did well today. I recalled when my friend wore a sullen and rather disappointing expression when things did not go well.then we learnt from the mistakes and try to be careful.i also uttered a silent pray in my heart to God for blessing me through my exam.During one of the exam,i felt that i was about to fail as the teacher gave me chance .i remember being loss for words and stumped when i was asked questions.i also remember that i was slightly anxious that i made careless mistakes that i did not do normally.But nonetheless,i thank God for looking me through and help me pass my exam for skills.After reaching home,i felt as if i was about to collapsed as flu and sorethroat starts to occur and i feel as if my nose was like a water tap and my throat is like a desert longing for water.really feel unwell now. May the lord continue to bless each and everyone in my tutorial group and my skills partner ,xinli.I thank the lord for all he has blessed me today!

committing everything in prayer

Feeling really drained lately,having to complete all projects and roleplay in time and even prepare for the theory test.Finally today, i have crossed another barrier that is my roleplay and powerpoint presentation on positive service encounter for communication skills in nursing. I really thank God for that as i feel much relieved now ,having to settle 50% of the marks for that component. I believe my group members sure felt relieved too.It is because we spent so much time and effort on it.We even did the editing of work more than three times and did many research. Today,i bun up my hair and wore a white dress to imitate a nurse and my friends said they nearly could not recognised me. Anyway, when i was doing the roleplay in front of my class mates i could actually feel my own breathing and my heart palpated violently.But i try to subdue my anxiety and carried on. Thank God,the teacher gave us good feedbacks on our presentation.We have actually seven logsheets,which means there is seven meeting,each for more than one hour at least to the most three hours.Tomorrow,i will need to continue to discuss other projects with my group members.I will also end class at 6.I also thank God for leading me in my biology test . though it was just 50 multiple choice questions,i feel that i will do well for it.During the presentation today,i was actually the one who sum up what all my team members had said about communication and i said that communication is like a bridge which linked people all across the world.However,we have to maintain it before our relationship become tenuous due to the lack in communication.Actually,this part of the project wark was inspired by my chinese essay that i had written during secondary four.But i find it really relevant in our daily life,Isn't it?talking about chinese,i really miss the times when i get to do chinese. I will probably read some chinese books when i am free. Not only that,i also miss the the time i had chinese lessons.By the way,eunice,i have been praying for you for your test and exam.I really do hope you do well too.To annajoy,Thanks for taking the time to read my unpalatable essay which i know is not very well written.I really appreciate it :)May God help us in our everyday life and renew us with his words and strength:)

caring is sharing

"caring is sharing".this was what my friend Amira told me today.To me, we can only know others better when they share.it is only when they share,we can then care,to show concern and love for them.i witness the act of care today.today, when i boarded the public transport, i witnessed how one care can bring a joy to others face.Bringing joy can be simple, it can be as simplistic as smiling to them.Also, it can be giving up your seats to people who needs them. today,i saw a middle age lady giving up her seat to an elderly man who was wobbling. i can see that when she give up her seats,she brought a smile to his face,a vague yet sincere smile.of course, today i had classes which i was partner up with xin li who was a jovial and enthusiastic person.Those who you can say loves to joke and is very expressive in her feelings. classes has been a great learning journey and i learnt to be a serve others whole heartedly.Vivian also went for a jab today for hepatitis B and she looks slightly pale ,probably because she is very busy lately.And Yi ning however,still have not fix her spectacles yet and is still screening in order to read the notes.lol.today,i also ended early like 3pm today and it reminds me of my secondary school days.The days i take bus home with caryn and angeline ,time i stayed back with rachel for cca and the time i studied with anna and tiff. how are you friends? really want to meet all of you out during holidays.i also hope to receive letter from angeline soon!to know whether she enjoyed her course,whether she had loved her school and how she is doing!friends,i really miss you all lots and all the time we spent together!now,i will have another penpals !:)take care my friends! keep in touch!

the lord is ever faithful

When the lord closes a door,he will always open a window. His love remain steadfast and his his promise is everlasting.Just like the rainbow. it has been three weeks since school started and nursing has been fulfilling and satisfactory.there is new challenges awaiting me everyday and new opportunities to learn too. My class mates are also very jovial and friendly people.Though we differs in age,background,country and cultures,we bonded as one. We help each other in learning and converse in several language,mandarin,english and a little malay languages. For me , i am still in the midst of learning malay language through my peers too. I also kept in contact with caryn,rachel,anna joy,angeline, tiffany,beatrice and rebekah. My peers now are also very amiable people,like belle,vivian,xiaoqian and amira and lots more.Classmates are really very fun and enthusiastic people who even wanted to organise class outings and celebrations for birthdays,even class T- shirt and all that.Though we all know that nursing would not be easy,i believe that we will still succeed and become a nurse as long we support one another through this three years.May the lord continue to guide our way,that every step we take,we will honour his name and continue to grow in his love and faith.

thoughts and feelings

It has been a long while since i published another post.previously,i am always studying.then came holiday where my examinations ended and i have more time spending with my friends and family.In the december holidays,i attended a wake of one of the member of the church .although we attended different services in church and i did not have many encounter with her,but eversince the pastor had asked the congregation to pray for her illness,cancer,i have been praying that the lord will bless her and strengthen her in every way.One sunday,i met her after my english service at church.though it was my first time seeing her,i remembered her smile.her smile was a warm and friendly one.even though,she was called home by the lord in the december season,i had 3 learning points.

1) we must always remember how deep is God's love and we must draw near to him.because,in life,nothing is eternal be it(wealth,riches or any other title we receive in earth).but the lord is forever with us and his love will never end .even if we die,and our body seems lifeless but the lord will grant us with an eternal body,one that never malfunctions nor is weak and fragile.and we will be with the lord in heaven:D Forever and ever.

2)we must cherish our each and every day,living life to the fullest.to me life to the fullest means spending more time with friends and family and love them+cherish them.

3)I feel that we must always pray and draw close to the lord and grow in his likeness:D
