Save the last dance for me.

:) I'm back into Michael Buble again, I haven't heard his songs for ages, because I feel that his songs are always very emotional and I get into the feeling of the songs. Anyway, 'CRAZY LITTLE THING CALLED LOVE', 'SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME', 'EVERYTHING' & 'HOME' are still my favourites of his! :D

I feel that God is answering my prayers, really! For one, like the Sec Three Adventure Camp that just passed. When I received the message from Ms Yeo about the cancellation of overnight stay for the camp, I was literally jumping for joy! Haha first to hear the good news was Cherie and after that my mom! I was so grateful to God, cause I've been dreading the whole overnight stay thing. First thing, I will miss my family a lot, cause we're in the same country but we can't see each other ): Second, I hate the whole dirty bunk and dirty bathing place. So basically, God was very good to me! Thank God! :)

First day was not exactly an ideal good start of a camp, because we had wet activities and we didn't bring any black clothes. When I was reached school, I was rather sad I wasn't with my class! But I had Joon and Jieyi! :D Yay! Hahaha chatted with Joon for awhile on the way there and I realised that it's the campsite beside the one I went for my p5 camp! So coincidental! Bonding games were alright, but I thought there were rooms for improvements. Lunch was at 10.45 and I had stomachache because of such an early lunch. They seriously dumped all the rice on our plates and expected us to finish the food, I was so >
Second day was better! I shall not elaborate much, but only that the weather was bad ): We didn't manage to do abseiling and rockclimbing, which were what I was looking forward to. But the main highlight for my day was high elements! Apparently I spent a long long time on it. It wasn't compulsory, so I prayed to God whether I should go for it or not. Suddenly I felt an urge to go out, God's plan! So I went up and before I went to the platform, I was already squealing and sweating really badly. Finally stepped up there and kept praying God to keep me calm. Finally calmed down and they changed instructor to guide me. Took the courage to step on the metal rod, and started crying. Gosh, I was really looking bad! My whole face was filled with tears and sweat, along with the smelly helmet which felt like it was going to drop any moment. Anyway, thank God! I managed to overcome my fear and complete it! Mr Ng talked to me about it, and I started crying again. Hahaha he told me to do another one and I was like "nooooo!" but he taught me a lesson through this! I felt that it was more meaningful than I thought it was be! In whatever we do, we must have concentration to overcome the obstacles we face. :) It started raining after I finished it, thank God I completed it first! We had games after that and they were good too! Every game had its learning points, and Instructor Joshua is hilarious, seriously! XD Prayer meeting at night was alright, I had a very strong feeling about loving God in the room! :) Thank God! Played with Huaili laoshi's children for about 1/2 hour, it was very enjoyable!

The third day was a good weathered Wednesday! Outdoor cooking was fun, I loved the combo Joon and I made up! Hahah I think next time I can't eat curry chicken without baked beans and vice versa anymore! XD Closing ceremony was fine, awards were given out and surprisingly, I got the Best Overcomer Award! I was so surprised and it was very sudden. Thank God, yuan2 lai2 everything was planned! :D Why do I worry, as long as I'm in His footsteps! Took camp photo and went home. Special dinner at night was absolutely wonderful! It was superb! I loved my mom and I's stations and everything else! :D Oh yes, I cut my hair! Not really cut, but it was really shorter by a lot and I had a hard time tying my french plaits today morning.

Went for Chemistry remedial on Thursday, saw Joon again! :D Yay. It was really good, I felt smarter when I stepped out of the classroom hahaha! I felt accomplished cause I managed to do most of the work myself, although some needed Ms Chian's guidance. And I finished my work first! Hahaha, went back home. and then prepared to go for debate meeting. It was productive, thank you mama for your wonderful help! Without her, I think all our chinese CMI! Hahaha talked to Ryan and thank God he's finally serving in tuanqi again! I felt so happy when I typed his name inside the jie mu biao. hahaha. Oh yes, I started feeling unwell from that period of time onwards. It was so terrible I tell you! Runny nose, headache and it seemed as though I had fever. I thought maybe it's because of the continous of camps I attended. After dinner went back home and rested awhile before going out for my supper! :D Yay, it was the fabulous super supper with my Tebanians! There were My sister, me, Gwyn, Cynthia, Shujing, Daniel and Xiangrong! Yay, I'm sure there will be more gatherings of this sort and maybe more of Galilee will join in! :D I enjoyed myself with them and I thought Gwyn's sharing of her missionary trip was really meaningful. I felt that our supper was not just bonding within ourselves, but together in the Lord. Thank God! :)

Friday was booked for my mom, so I went out with her to Orchard! I haven't been to Orchard for ages and I felt like a penguin in a cage XD Went to Takashimaya with mom to use our voucher! Walked around and we finally bought 6 items with the wonderful voucher. Hahaha, I love the 6 items, and I'm using 2! Had our lunch at Fisheron (sp?) and it was rather delicious! ;) It reminded me of my birthday, cause my sister treated me to the fried brownie with ice-cream thing! Yum! :D Ate Auntie Anne's! :D:D:D:D Trained home and prepared to go for my first ever tuition in my whole life! I was feeling so nervous on the way there, and Daddy tried to calm me down. Prayed to God while walking up to the tuition centre. Went inside and started breaking into cold sweats! Haha finally asked a girl and she wasn't going for the same tuition! Ay, I felt embarrassed but nevertheless, I asked a teacher and finally got into the correct room. The lesson was good, but the room was cold! Haha Ms Ang is very nice and friendly, I like her! :D The class is separated into the quiet and noiser groups. Obviously, since I'm a new student, I belong to the quiet group. It's not neccesary to be with the bigger "gang" cause it's just tuition! I go there to study and not party, so thank God it was fine for me! :D Managed to do most of the work and the pace was just nice for me. Thank God once again! Took bus home and Mom fetched me at the bus stop. Watched tv and ate my very very late dinner, I love mom! ('s cooking)

Saturday was ahhhhh! in the morning. Because I suddenly felt as though I had a lot of unfinished stuffs to do. I think it was the first time I dressed so nicely for tuanqi! Hahaha it was debate okay, first time one leh! :D Reached church and started printing stuffs and I sololy set up the whole seating stuffs! I felt so accomplished :) Thank you Ryan and Sunzhong for helping with the tables. Tuanqi started and I was already into the debate mood! It officially started and Jiaxian was fantastic! Ryan was obviously very good! Wing did hers very well! Sunzhong's was wellsaid! :D Everyone in my group were busy jottling down notes while the other side was debating. Haha it was very cool! It was break time and then we had discussion about how to rebutt for the free debate. Oh man, I totally loved the 7 minutes free debate! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D Yay. After that it was my turn! For the conclusion. I was so worried I might not finish, but thank God I finished way before the time limit! :D And I dropped them a nuclear bomb. Alex's conclusion was good too! :) Sang songs and let the spectators voice out their comments. Then Xubin laoshi came and did a whole conclusion which I thought was very well said! :D Announced the results, and surprisingly, I was the Best Debater! Thank God! :D And my group won! It was really wonderful and I was smiling from ear to ear! Went down for refreshments and we were shooting each other about the debate stuffs! :) After refreshments, talked to Mei'en and went to play ball! :D It was fun and Daddy played as well! But I was wearing quite formally, so I couldn't play very well. Went for dinner at IMM and I loved my time with Lovable! :)

Sunday was Zhongfuxi (Great Term Revision). Thank God it went smoothly! :) Oh yes, I thought my dressing for yesterday was super weird but oh well ): The whole activity was fun and I learnt more from the things others answered! :D Went ahma's house at night and BCITW helped me with my tuitionwork last question! Finally understood it and started slacking. I felt so unwell that I was going to scream >< But thank God I managed to go home and sleep! Although I only managed to sleep for a total of about 5 hours, it was stil better than nothing! :D

Today was a fabulous start of a new term! :D I felt a ray of hope for a happy and fun term, although there is only one holiday in the whole term. Oh well, I'm sure I can have a lot of fun still. I mean, I have God, my family, my friends, what else am I worried about! :D:D:D Today didnt' realy have any lessons, it was just admin stuffs and talking! Really enjoyed my time. Went to Lot One while my sister taught tuition. Walked around and gave mom a good idea for this coming week's tuanqi programme! Thank God! :) Went westmall after that, and saw Cherie, Shihui and Maya! Hoho, the world is so small. Went home after dinner, watched TV and currently chatting while posting.

I'm really grateful to God, for his providence! He really gave me a lot of precious gifts!(L)

Shuning is well contented with life.

Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
