Upcomings...

the exams are FINALLY over! Thank God! =) first time in my entire sjtudent life in nus so far that i've had exams for 2 weeks...bleargh..was bad...will prob never do it again if i can help it .heh. anyways, must really thank God for helping me through my papers..for showering me with the grace that i have been truly underserving of ( esp in my unusally whiny and mopey and panic-stricken self during the pre-pre ( 1 week before papers), pre- ( a day or half an hour before paper) and post ( "trying to find ans in notes to double check" mode) anxiety attacks. Thank God for people like ade, sharon etc... ( + all those who constantly shoved chocs and sweeties to me when i felt stressed. ( hey..i'm a gifts person k? =P haa) and those who really took time out to write me little notes of encouragement despite themselves being bogged down with the same levels of stress.. ( 2nd highest love gift ' words of affirmation! ' haa) . So ...yea..a BIG thank you to YOU ( you pple know who you are) and God for providing me with such friends like u all...you've indeed been a blessing to me. =)

There are so many things to think about even as the hols ( wait..i take that back. =x) start.. ( prob due to the cumulative effects of procrastination ) but hopefully the 2.5 days left of my so- called term break will be fruitful ( in terms of really being still and listening to Him speak and guide). been feeling so dry as a result of the lack of reflection -doing in my tiny notebook which has been exhausted, and honestly, a lack of taking time in reading His word and absorbing and reflecting on what the word has to say . sigh! have been feeding myself with ' snacks' ( aka 5- 15 min of qt and pray daily) . feel so undernourished now. bleargh.

aniways yea. back to the stuff i am having to think about now. 1. how to lead a cg??! what to do?! 2. what if i really messed my attachment up? 3. how am i to balance work, cf and church commitments ?? ARGH. think i prob need lots of prayer , humility and faith.

Out of point but since polling day is tomorrow...decided to put my two cents worth on what i feel about the whole rally that has been going on these past week or 2... 1. Why should citizens be deprived of any upgrading of HDB flats if they have been faitfully paying their taxes just like anyone else simply because they choose the opposition parties? heh. i mean ultimately whoever's being elected is going to be part of the GOVERNMENT of Singapore..and not part of a single party with pple in perpetual white shirts and incessant garlands who dangle '$100 million' carrot in the upgrading scheme for residents. ( it's pure brib.... =x) 2. there's been talk about doing away with means testing for healthcare. ( hey...put msw's out of work to do leh! just kidding.) on a more serious note.. i feel that means testing is pretty crucial in order for social workers to determine objectively if a family is able to afford the medical fees ( and also more concrete and credible since it's in black and white for the clients to see mar) with them proposing to do away with it means that many people may start claiming they need financial aid just becuase they have chose to stay in a B or C class ward. ( believe me..i'm sure there are people who would go great lengths to avoid paying their hospital bills.. ( i'm refering to those who can well afford to =x). but i prob need to find out more about the means testing part before making any judgements...part of the job i guess! =P ( Argh! work starts on mon! =x)

on a more personal note.. really hope that a good governing body is set in place locally. have to place our future leaders in His hands i guess. =)

so many things left unanswered . distractions galore. ( bleargh.) Lord help me to trust in You; in Your unfailing love; in Your timing; in Your will that you have put forth in my life.
