the night before sch starts hmm...am supposed to be getting ready for bed n finishing up my QT but instead i am stuck here waiting for oasis' "stand by me" to finish downloading. it's ironic...weird....whatever u call it....that i am able to get an almost immediate download response for this song but yet when i check for sting's "king of pain" or radiohead's "punchup at a wedding" i have yet to get a successful download on the shareware i'm using. time to switch...but the problem with shareware is it's risky. why can't they have apple tunes for free?but yeah i already know the answer. fat hope. anyway while i'm waiting i might as well do a quick recap of today. was supposed to join my yfers for badminton this morn but last nite felt a bit feverish, in addition to the sore throat i brought home from the trip (contracted it one day before i returned, n was the last one to get sick....if u dun count the duration after the trip, cos our clean-record-of-health member in the team finally fell ill today). so i slept. i think one of the good things about camps / mission trips is that, they make u wake up earlier than u normally wud each day, so much so that when u return home ur body clock actually sets itself to wake up much earlier than u usually do. not that i have been getting up around the time i'm supposed to get up for sch, but hey at least i'm up by 12-something since i've returned :p....yes, 12 is actually considered "earlier" for me. then i did some necessary chores n stuff (not much) n went for grp dinner as well as the gen12ii wave 2 commissioning thingy....fyi my mission trip was during wave 1, so tonite was to "pass the baton" to the wave 2's....it's sort of like a kickstarting ceremony, this commisioning nite thing. got to meet lots of long-time-no-see faces, so it was a reunion of sorts for me. oh yes....."stand by me" has finally finished downloading. goodie. while i listen let me jus type one more point and try to force myself off the computer after this. a brand new semester awaits tmr.....third year has finally arrived. amazing, but i didn't think i'd get here that fast. thank god He passed my modules last sem....i hope, i hope....that i don't mess up this sem, like the way i did the last. at least i come away with the added knowledge now that i cannot, simply cannot, do anything without god's help, that all my plans and strategies and whatnot is all down the drain if His hand is not with me. and so i do not aim to foolishly go thru the semester this time using my own strength and capabilities, but with the Lord's. "Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain."
