Loved & Reassured

SUNDAY  22/11/09 [16 years 9mths old]
To commemorate this day (haha) i wore the t-shirt yanling gave to me for my birthday

I'm so glad today's a sunday, i'm really glad that yanling sat beside me during service today.i'm really glad that Shu gave me such a tight hug after service today.(have a safe and wonderful trip to Japan!) I'm really glad that i had lunch with Ee Ling, Estella, Becky, Yiwen, Avelyn, Jane, Krystel and Eunice

Was talking to Ee Ling while on the way to lunch:] and i found out that both of us share the same interest of reading chick lit to de-stress.teehee.i'm really thankful that we could talk on the way and she has a knack of knowing that i was troubled.

I've never cried so much on a sunday before, but i'm glad that after telling estella and ee ling everything i feel much better, less burdened, less stressed, less grieved, less worried!i am truly thankful for the both of them, from the bottom of my heart. and thank you to all the girls mentioned above.(group hug! *squeals*) see this is what having lunch with them can do ((:

Happy Fabulous Fifteeeeen Sam! (17/11)
Happy Twenty First Birthday Cuzzie! (21/11)

Books to peruse(!!-'The Independence of Miss Mary Bennet' is lovely), movies to watch
To the Airport tomorrow! (watch planes take off and land...Sissy's coming backk!)

with loads of love

Blessed

And finally, *drum rolls* it's over! okayyyyy, let's see i've got loads to type and many people to thank, so brace yourself(!) it's going to be a loooooong post filled with smileys!

13 November-World Kindness Day
Had my very last paper today!went out with pripri, lohloh (i think my nickname for carissa is very cute,srsly), shar, ainiah, Sarah R, Jia Yhin and Nishantiiiiiii!and we watched 2012, which was 2hrs 37mins long.i didn't know if it was just after exams or something, but i cried a lot while watching the movie.it's real sad (well at least for me) but at least it had a happy endingor i would be very depressed.it was kinda philosophical as well, not exactly the kind of movie to watch after a major exam, but it was still worth it, with good company!loves.i was supposed to meet up with familyyyy(!)to celebrate Sam's birthday, after the movie at ONE.but the movie ended at 1 plus and i was at lido and i was supposed to meet them at The Equinox and it was raininggggg!rushed to City Hall, came out to raffles city and couldn't find my way.dad didn't tell me the Equinox was in Swiss Hotel, hence many people didn't know where it was.so i was like 'oh dear'.then there was a lady in her twenties. she walked towards me, so i thought maybe i should ask her, but she asked me first-'do you need any help?' i nodded, asked her, thinking she would give me directions, but NO, she was so NICE and SWEET to bring me directly to the place.on the way, she said she was a former MGS girl!(Aww!)and she gave me her congratulations after hearing that i just finished my O levels.today's Kindess day, and i really experienced an act of kindness

Sissy's off to the UK-manchester, london, A380

Here's who i have to thank:

1) Family Dad, mum, sissy, sam and dan. Dad actually took day offs to send me to school in the afternoon, you know.i'm a very fortunate girl Dad and Mum's daily prayers for me and my friends, sissy's help in studies, sam for lending me his room, so that i can study alone and have a whole room to myself to hibernate in.heeee and for the silent support throughout the whole year.i love my family a lot

2) Bestieeeee!i still remembered on the day before O levels started-sunday, after sending dan to sunday school, i met bestie who was playing for ppt that week.She said, 'save me a seat k! and i've got your birthday present!' i was like cos i thought she would give me after my O levels.then she said she thought she would give me on the eve so that at least i've got something to be happy about.(aw) Was very surprised, and the prezzie was lovely!surprise+friendship+present=lovely birthday andd bestie went over to Danfer's on Tuesday!see that's the good thing when your neighbour(who happens to be your ex sch mate)happens to be in the same class as your best friend!yanling came over for awhile, i just realised we should have taken pictures cos we were in our diff sch uniforms.(bleah)

3) Betty! it's really cool how betty and i got to meet up again after about SEVEN years of separation.haha i still remembered she was my 'mummy'(!) during a play for D24, directed by jie jie grace.Msged Betty to tell her my o lvl schedule on the eve and she replied 'ohh i was just thinking about you and valerie when i was showering!' and during the whole 3 weeks, betty would always encourage me with her lovely smses:]] i must give her a big hug when i see her.She's very smart-all A1s, except 1 A2 for her O levels then.wow

4) My Classmates.without fail, before every paper, my classmates and I would join hands in a circle to pray.and seeing how they put their faith in God, how they trust in Him, makes me feel so happy, makes me feel so blessed, let me know that i was not going to tackle the papers alone, but with them and with God as our faithful Provider.i love my classmates to bits.

5)The Awesome 3!shu, elissa and gladys!teehee.

6)Melissa, Jie Ying, Jedd, C.T, Zhi Wei!the people whom i studied music with. C.T's really talented and apparently he practises the piano every night and then at 10pm, he'll start studying for the Os.i think he's the guy version of Violette.then there's Zhi Wei.there's always a happy moment walking home with him.he's very funny(: melissa and jie ying are such dears.i think i'll miss them

7) Elizabeth G.my fav, quiet,sweet, lovely, darling junior who didn't have a hp until recently (i think that's very cool-don't really on technology until you need it)and who texted me to wish me well for my o levels.

And finally God.He has been so faithful, so loving and merciful.i cannot thank Him enough.hopefully, the results would be able to bring glory to His name.

xoxo

Do not fear, for I am with you
Do not be dismayed, for I am your God
I will strengthen you and help you
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand

Isaiah 41:10

& i've got lovely people who encouraged me by telling me this verse-more than 3 times/separate occasions recently.(some of whom i thought were really unexpected) it must be something. maybe God wants me to know that.and to all my beloved friends who are taking the major exam, He wants you to know it too!

vanessa, trust in the Lord
