At the wrong place!

haiz, im supposed to be catching my winks right now. tomr, i have eng formal letter writing, but my body's really defiant! it will only turn to sleeping mode when it's full fatigue, if not i cant sleep and will be tossing about and sweating and then the notorious mozzie will come and bite me and i will have more scars... haiz, so the moral of the story is dont sleep when your body isnt ready!
this post wasn't planned, but i thought it will be nice to mark this as my 5th post for july and my 75th post since creation. whoa, my blog has really progressed from nothing to some near 100-poster.
mum's been away for so long and thanks to her absence, i have been super unhealthy!!!! ate instant mee for lunch once, dinner is always outside food. and snacks include chocs, the baby flour ball,etc but on the flipside, i DO consume sufficient amounts of fruits! like tomato, watermelon, strawberries and many more! heh, now i feel how blessed to have good home cooked food when mum's around. i msis my pomfret and grouper and crab. haiz....
CTs coming up the week after next, i admit i have not be at all diligent in my work. haiz, i have succumbed to the reversi temptation! :( but managed to beat the experts! only a few times lah! maybe only 5% out of the many times i play.. lol, very good already lor..
yay, and im starting to feel comfortable in ce, i mean i feel very comfortable in ce. i love the friends there! lol, and next sat, we are going to have a church outing to bishan park and we are going to play games! hehe. but of course, fe will ALWAYS remain number one as it was where i grew up and made my first christian friends! i miss them real dear and ks too... hope it's still thriving!
finally, im going to witness er jie officially enter the U with her white coat! so cool! it so cool leh, the thought of have a doctor in your house... can get free mc! lol. but most importantly, im glad she got what she wanted and hope she will be able to save lives!
okay, i think my eyes are getting tired, tired enough to flutter, okay, that's a sign! i gtg! goodnight!

Is rahab's lie justified?

is rahab's lie justified? though the musical did not put much focus on the lie of rahab, saga aka timothy raised the question on my tagboard, so i shall discuss it, or rather, i will state my stand and then discuss.

this topic is really controversial! i rmb there was one ks camp when bro linus chua had discussed this. saga, were u there? :)

i think that rahab did not do wrong in this context cos i guess all this was pre-ordianed by God. i mean, im not trying to say that God, in his sovereignty and pureness, had to make use of a lie to protect His people. however, as u noe, God knew that such a thing would happen since the beginning of times and yet He did not prevent it. but i must correct any misunderstanding, i dont say that God approved of her lie. it is just that he made use of rahab, who told a lie in her human nature. (i hope im making sense! this topic is real hard to talk.)

also, the bible says that God will not put us under trials and burdens too heavy for us to bear. so if rahab had lied, i think if it was her only way then, and God will understand. duh, i dont feel too comfortable about saying how God felt about the matter. please forgive me if i sound too much. though rahab's lying was a clear cut sin, my opinion is that she is justified, given her situation.

and i dont doubt rahab's faith if you suggest that why didnt she trust God to save the spies instead of relying on her lie. when she lied, she very well knew the trouble she was puttting herself into by lying to the king's soldiers and trusted God for the way out. furthermore, she believed that God would be able to keep her house uncannily standing though the rest of the fortress fell.

i say this although im unable to rebutt the point that if rahab had not told a lie, God would still be able to save the spies, and through the incident manifest His power and greatness. haiz, but i still do think that rahab is justified, seeing the difficult cirsumstance she was facing.

so saga, what is your stand? :)

The PL musical!

woot! i absolutely loved the musical! whee! the acting was good, the script was good, the plot great too. the plot was about 3 girls who venture into jericho with a whimsical spirit. they get into trouble and the stress between the different levels of society become greater, these girl have to learn to depend on God to deliver them and overcome their obsatcles. the back drop of the story is the renown wall fall down plot of jericho in the bible. i feel that the story really reminded me of the clay marble, of dara and jantu. haha, the storyline seems so alike! but of course, while jantu died, micah lived.
i really like the potryal of the characters. i give the cast a 4 and a 1/2 out of 5. cos the mains were sec 1s, not that im trying to imply that the younger ones cant put off a good show, but they really proved me wrong during the show. kudos to kael, micah and dee! they were so funny. haha. of course, diane wasn't miscasted, she seemed so natural as a guy. ps, she looked so handsome! haha, that is in my opinion. lol. and i LOVE the shell-i-co part. archanaa or what ever her name is, did great. i just loved the jazz and her gloriously voluminous butt! hah! and the king, very convincing as a tyrannical dud.
in short, the musical was just marvelous! hehheh, im waiting for the DVD if possible. :) i wanna get my copy.

okees, i shall have to go. i have been trying a lot of reversi on the com. playing with experts... losing ALL the time. i won the beginners and intermediates easily. my next challenge: expert! to beat the expert to become a genius in reversi. no lah, all i can do is hope..

Yipee! i have good news!

before i start on this post, i realise i have been not updating as frequently as i should, thus i keep entering lots of outdated stuff. it feels kind of weird getting excited over outdated stuff(look at my title, it was genuine 2 days ago, now im past rejoicing). but i haiz, i always write about the passed past, but hey, i guess i couldnt write about the future too much, but i hope if time permits, i will try writing more of the present.

first of all, this past sun, ce finally shifted out of its almost ancient premises, the bible house to the very hotel-like premises, and its interior is really nice! bible house had a disgusting hall and rusted chairs. and the eating area was just so open-air(=hot), and always no place to sit! however, the new place has a great lounge where the youths can play mafia and the canteen is just so cosy! even the service chairs are far from rusting. can u see how i juxtaposed the 2 places? haha, im a product of pure lit! haha. i just love the environment of the place i want to go back to church!

on wed, i went to a doc, he's a very patient and very fatherly. he explained to me and my mom about my ear problem and told me that it'll clear. he even drew the ear passage out to illustrate. from then, i really calmed down, cos prior to that, i really thought that i was going to lose the hearing on my left ear forever. haha, im so looking forward to beong able to hear properly again.

and finally, i shall conclude by saying that im very very very excited about tennis tomr! :) HAHA!

Past week

second week of school has passed! everything has been fine except for a few bouts of cough every now and then during class. i have cleared off 40% compre for english. i must admit i like english lessons with miss ong (i dunno why). maybe it is because i feel very relaxed and i can talk with diane and elyssa. BUT when mr dan came in, i dont really fancy his lessons... first of all, i have to make out his accent, i have to get used to it. :( then he also asked directs questions at me evry now and then.. duh!
this past week, i have discovered something every disgusting with my body. this few days, i have been expelling thick and humongous and bloody and yellow and all the disgusting things you noe about phlegm. this phlegm has been the most disgusting one i've ever ever ever had in my 15 years and 4 months of life.
and oh btw, i have been watching lovers in prague with my second sis! she's finally open to korean dramas. thanks to toon hwee! haha. she likes it! and i like it too! and there's this particular soundtrack i like from the show. and it is being currently played on my blog. :) i think i sort of have begun to appreciate k-pop quite a lot.
okay, gotta go! :)
