Today Sarah talked to me about my voice. I do agree that it's God's gift, but I have no idea what to do with it. I can't sing worship songs, really, and honestly, I hate my voice. Let's just say I have a love-hate affair with singing. Sarah says to use it to glorify God. I don't know. How do I do that when I can't even (or rather don't like) singing those worship songs they sing in church? I feel weirdly out of place in church. You know what? I think it's time to move on to a worthier CCA like badminton or tennis, instead of being in sissy choir. Everyone's got nice voices, not just you, so don't think you're so good just because of a few compliments. You've an Asian voice. I repeat, ASIAN. Chinese-accented and all. Nobody will appreciate your voice. So snap out of the chorister thing and get real. Look at Hwajung. She's got a nice voice, but it's not strong. You're never going to be as strong as the African-Americans, or even the Whites, so just give it up.
I am still very confused about religion.
I wonder, if they knew, how many more would hate me?
All that Thinking Schools, Learning Nation thing is quite crappy. All they encourage you to do is to think out of the box...into a bigger box. For about five, six years now already. I really don't agree on the education policies MOE are introducing. I got chased out of school on a Saturday and now they're reversing Singapore's famous strict-but-good education system. Now they're trying to reverse/loosen the tight grip they have, but Gorbachev didn't have much success implementing Glasnos and Perestoika although they were great policies, and they probably have to learn from his mistakes by going slow.
Going to Korea soon. Will miss two important things, which have saddened me greatly. Still, it cannot be helped and you know what? I sound like a robot. Adios.
