exam perks n "the snippet"..
hey hey ppl... hehe... figured i shld update more often after the prelims to make up for the times dat i haven't updated me blog during the prelims... niway always kena msg's frm ppl to update blog one so might as well.. hehe..
anyway yup... itz the first week baq in sch after the prelims... everyone's feeling kinda edgy n depressed.... due to the uncertainty n insecurity of getting an alright grade for the exams... well.. juz wanna share wat i read in today's devotional... realli relevant n encouraging for the current circumstance... hehe...
juz wanna highlight a couple of the verses in the passage... namely verses 6 n 7... "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ." in these times of great stress n pressure (i.e. exam period.. esp O's n A's..) there's always something to be anxious abt... like getting gd grades... finishing up the revision for exams in time for the actual exams itself... fear of burnout... irritation of fatigue... wat we all need is peace frm all these worries n prayer provides this peace...
it doesn't mean dat once we pray all our problems will juz dissolve n resolve themselves n nv reappear ever again... instead it grants us a peace of mind even when we haf to face these anxieties head-on.... realli helps to clear up a boggled mind n oso proves to release the strain frm the mental well-being... haha...
juz a short snippet of my thoughts everytime i'm stoning on the bus... most of the time we feel like we dun look so bad.... dat sometimes when a task calls for charisma we're more than up to it.... but somehow i feel dat maybe i'm not dat special afterall.. maybe i'm juz an average dave with the guy-nxt-door look.. well.. i'm not saying i'm suffering a bout of depression or some inferiority complex... neither am i saying dat i feel under-appreciated... "i know how to be abased... n i know how to abound..." haha... i guess i'll be abased with my current physical appearance n strive to abound in my mental n spiritual maturity.... but sometimes these thoughts of so-called self-awareness do surface...
itz juz a hunch... but i guess ppl with gf's/bf's dun feel too insecure abt how they look or how they r coz they know they're appreciated by whoever their companion is... i guess datz wat draws most ppl to start up a relationship.... to gain some form of appreciation frm someone else at a more personal level.... but then again... i may be wrong... coz i've nv been in one myself.. haha..
well.. datz a short snippet... kinda silly tinking abt dis kinda stuff coz the fact is dat i dun haf a gf n most probably wun get one in the nxt few yrs.. haha... n datz dat.... dun tink i'm ready for it too... tho the opportunity for one is tempting enuff.... but enuff of dat.. haha...
baq to the blog.... well... to all ppl who're doin their final-yr exams or promos in abt a week's time.... all the best!! dun fret if u've haven't finished ur revision.... juz try ur best during the week n sit for the exams nxt week.... doesn't matter if the grades aren't too gd or aren't up to expectations.... at least u know u've done ur best.... if u know u haven't done ur best... well... try again the nxt rnd of exams.. ^^... for those taking their O's n especially A's.... itz a different matter... haha... coz i guess there wun be a nxt time...
hmm.. didn't know i could qrite dis much... expected a short entry.... well anyway itz the exam period now n i juz wish every student all the best! work hard.... play harder! ^^ ciaoz~...
