Okay, so I created a Livejournal account. And I kinda regret it because now I'm torn between Blogger and Livejournal. -.- Well I think I'll most probably end up neglecting my Livejournal account, because I'm used to Blogger and it has had a long history :) But I'll feel guilty! So I think I'll post on Livejournal once in a while... But Livejournal also has some cool features which Blogger does not. For example, the mood settings. For every post, you can post the mood of the post. That's cool! Argh I don't know :/ Should I continue using Blogger or change to Livejournal?! Okay, you know what. I don't think I should start using Livejournal. And the dilemma is really killing me. So I'm gonna delete my Livejournal account :P It's was only created yesterday! :X

Church today was rather fun! The TF session was one of the best sessions I've been to thus far. :D Everyone was singing so enthusiastically and the atmosphere was awesome :) It brought a big smile to my face~ Sarah and Samuel are leaving after today :( They're going to another church together with Pastor Richard D: Will miss you guys! Hope you have a great stay in your next church! :)

Week 10 starts tomorrow. The last week of Term 3. Year 2010 is really passing very quickly :/ Time lost cannot be recovered. I can't waste anymore time. I need to stay focused and sprint to the finish line. Come on, it's the final stretch, let's do this.


"One night, a man dreamed that he was walking with God on sand. In the sky was scenes of the different stages in his life. He realised that at many stages in his life, there was only one set of footprints in the sand, and these stages were mostly during his times of hardship and sadness. He asked God, 'When I came to know You, You promised to always be by my side and to never leave me. Yet at the times I was filled with sadness and hardship, You left me to walk alone.' God replied, 'My precious child, I love you and will never leave you. When you were sad and in pain, it was during those times that I carried you.'"

I seriously love our PM :D He's humourous and I love his views! He keeps the thoughts of the youth in mind and he makes sure that the message we youths do not have the power to enforce is sent to the rest of Singapore :) Some quotes from him:

"PSLE, O Levels, A Levels. These exams DO NOT determine the future of your child."

"We should not put so much pressure on our children, such that it becomes countereffective."

Pure awesomeness. (Y) Those were just two views which we teenagers have, and two views we have wanted to show our parents for a very long time. Felt awesome hearing PM Lee saying those words. :)

Though I feel the idea of 7 more IP schools is rather... extensive. There are already 11 IP schools in Singapore. I don't know, you can call these schools "elite schools"? But hey, as IP schools, there has to be a certain reputation there right? I mean, not to boast or anything, but shouldn't IP schools be counted as special in some way? And this reputation should remain unique, i.e. not everyone should have this opportunity. If everyone has access to it, then IP isn't "special" anymore. If everyone is special, then nobody is. Only those who rightfully deserve it should have the opportunity to go through the education of an IP school. Those who worked so hard and those who actually have the potential should have the opportunity. Not everyone. I'm not saying that I deserve to be an IP school, though I am definitely privileged to be in one. But these are just my thoughts.

I feel very proud of my country for hosting the first YOG. :) I think Singapore's awesome~ And the YOG flame was so cool! The one in the lighthouse. If you look closely, the long strip of fire which extends out of the lighthouse isn't just that, a strip of fire. It's actually a continuously spinning orange flame. And it looks so powerful! :) I'm proud to be a Singaporean~
