Angel and Mortal Episode 1

Last week, during Tues night service, during Praise, Yanlin just turned to me and told me that she had a feeling that i would receive a great great blessing the next day!

In my mind, i was so surprised and happy, haha, n the first thing that came was that it must be something from my angel...

N indeed, it was. Wed nite came, we met at the toilet at expo, n tada, she gave me a wonderful wonderful gift from my angel, titled 'Christ the Lord'!

'Christ the Lord' by Anne Rice



What else can i say? It must have been one of the most heartfelt gifts one could ever give, for the book talks about CHRIST... I am in the midst of reading it now dear angel... once i finish the book, i will share about it...

My angel wrote this:

Behold, the Holy Spirit has spoken with the Angel,
For you told the Holy Spirit your wish.
Now, the Angel comes to you with blessing,
A blessing so imaginary that it renews your mind,
And you will LOVE Jesus even more.



I am prompted to think that my angel is Xiaowei! She always writes such beautiful poems. :)

So here I am expressing my thanks. Thank you dear angel, and of course, the angel's messenger, Yanlin!

Well, 5D is also playing angel n mortal. Dear class, I hope you have a lot of fun too! We can make it happen and show each other that we care. I have already read some of the notes that you had written for each other. Really encouraging! Let's keep up the class spirit!

Uncle Franky and us

Tonight, i can't really get to sleep, so I decided to get online and do a bit of work. Whaha, but hmmm, i don't think i am really fruitful at that.

It's the end of the 3rd week of sch. This week has been very fruitful. On Tuesday, the kids went for CIP and they went to this Uncle Franky's house at a very ulu place - Munyak?? I hope i got it correct? I joined them very late cos there was CCA registration in sch and when i reached, i was really touched.

I saw the whole class there, many of them putting in the effort to help Uncle revamp his house.

Actually, i feel that scenes like these are really very precious and valuable. We have often been taught to be kind, to share, to spread joy, to love, but how many are really doing it from their heart?

I spoke to Uncle too and was indeed deeply touched to know that the kids had really made a difference in his life. He teared and told me that these kids are good kids and that it was one of the best days in his life. I took a good look at my class. I really felt that way too. I saw many students really giving their best, co-operating to finish up their makeover. Others chatted with Uncle and listened to his stories and experiences. I really think that there is so much potential in each and everyone of them.

Specially dedicated to my form class:

GANBATTE

It'll be the last year in this school for all of you
Let's start this year with a heart brand new
A clean slate for your dreams and desire
Whatever you do I pray you burn with fire

Time is precious, don't procrastinate
Once it's gone, it'll never come back
It's always a choice, so choose it wisely
Don't let this year be one of folly

It'll get tougher and more challenging
Yet there's always a time for emerging
Slowly but steadily, stay in the race
Slowly but surely, increase your pace

Work hard now, give your best
Let your life be filled with zest
Remember that you are unique
As class 5D, we will make it!

A great meal after a tiring day!

Last night was the night where 4 hungry people gathered. Scott, Heather, Steve and myself went to Steve's Dad's place for dinner and really, it was one of the best weekday-eat-out-dinners that I had ever experienced.

Haha. Maybe it was cos we were all very hungry, or it could be because it was after another long day in school, or maybe it was cos there was an anticiaption of the holiday today. All in all, we were famished. Although we ate normal "zi cha" fare, it was truly satisfying. Hmmm. Wish I had taken pictures. Anyway, we had "fu rong dan", "pipa dou fu", "dou miao", "tie ban lu rou", "butter fish-cum- sotong", "xi yang cai tang" and "chilli crab with man tou"!!

Amazing!!

We finished every single bit and this morning, i woke up thinking about it. More than just the food that we had, it was the company and the freinds. It's really wonderful that God has given me friends like them in the workplace. People whom you can trust and rely on.

Anyway, Steve's Dad refused to accept our payment and in the end, I managed to give him a small token for the food that we ate. I really appreciate the generosity his family has shown. Although they may never see this entry, thank you nevertheless!!

Well, today is a cold and dark day. Haha, but it's not really that bad. It's nice to be able to sleep through the rain, warm and wrapped up at 6 am in the morning, not having to go to school!! :) Heez, I am sure many will share the same sentiments!! Ah-ne, you saw this?? Tuesday ain't blue anymore. Today is rainbow.

Decisions, Actions, Consequences

This week, the Lord has shown me something
I pray my eyes be open, my heart be ready
I see the episode unfolding
Every single bit heart-wrenching

A three-year tussle, a three-year struggle
it really ain't too easy for me to handle
Lord I pray your hand moves in this matter
Lord I pray you give me the wisdom

Decisions and actions
Will all bring about certain consequences
Lord I have taken my stand; they are my convictions
Speak to me Lord, give me the revelations
Help us truly make the right decisions.


Rom 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose."

HMMMMM

WHY IS MY TIME 4.16 am???

bewildered cen
To my dear students of 5D

It is indeed wonderful to be able to be your form teacher and EL teacher again this year. I promised you guys that I would write something to encourage all of you, so here goes.

This year is going to be challenging! It's gonna be a great jump for most of you this year, but i am very very sure that you can do it. ALL OF YOU. I have great faith in each and everyone of you and i believe that if you put in the effort now, you will reap success at the end of it.

Haha, actually i am finding it a bit strange to blog like this to the class.

Anyway, coming back to the class, I would also like to extend a great great welcome to the ex-4G girls. I hope that you will find the ex-4F a warm and lovely bunch. Together, we make up 5D! Ha ha, can anyone come up with any excellent adjective starting with 'D'? 5 Dangerous? 5 Dilligent? 5 Dreamers? Suggestions?

Some gentle reminders here to you:
1. Remember to stay organised. Use your handbook to help you.
2. Remember the 1st expectation - RESPECT: ONLY ONE SPEAKS
3. Remember the 2nd - PUNCUALITY
4. Remember the 3rd - CLASSROOM CLEANLINESS

Ok, that's all for now. Thanks, Elisa, for offering some valuable help on blogging. Haha, i have to spend some time polishing up my blogging skills!!
