Picking on someone . . . is it justified?
A little history before I start on my topic today; I am no stranger to being picked on. It happened a lot in both Primary School and Secondary School, and to be honest, now that I look back on it, I wonder if I am to be blamed for it. In Primary School, it was mostly my skin that got the flack: I remember being called both "lizard" and "crocodile ( Read more... ) -
Hello Again!
I almost had a heart attack when I found out that I had not posted for three whole weeks. My goodness, time really does fly extremely fast! Of course, I had been aware that I had not posted for a long time, but still, three weeks was quite a shock. I'm not surprised why times seems to have flown by though, because I have been extremely busy with ( Read more... ) -
Orientation Day 2
Today was the second day of the Orientation Programme and RP, and the main aim of the programme was to get to know the schools as well as the facilities in the whole campus. I'm not too sure whether it really was effective or not, because I just kept following everyone around, and I'm not sure whether I would be able to find my way to the labs or ( Read more... ) -
Day 1 of RP Orientation
Yes! Finally, the day I have been waiting for has arrived! Today I have officially gone for the RP orientation and have since met my new classmates for this semester. Of course, they're going to keep changing us around because they want us to get used to new faces and environments, just like the workplace, but at least, I have met my classmates ( Read more... ) -
The Richness of Humility
Today's devotions is taken from today's article in the Daily Bread, titled "Richness of Humility". According to the article, humility is extremely important because we have to remember that no matter what we do, we have to give the credit back to God. What we do is accomplished by His glory and grace, and hence, all the glory must go back to him. ( Read more... ) -
Black Blood Updated!
Yes! I finally posted the latest chapter of my story "Black Blood"! These past few days, it's been a real struggle trying to write because having been at home for so long, I'm starting to get a mental block. I realise now that I need to be around people so that I can see how they react and then incorporate them into my stories. That's the way Jane ( Read more... ) -
Be My Escape
Wow, school is starting next Wednesday, and I'm not even sure whether I'm prepared for it! Other than the fact that I have my new laptop which is RP configured, as well as my new student ID. I'm still giddy about the fact that I'm considered an official RP student, even though I'm already at least two years older than my cohort. However, at least ( Read more... ) -
Andrew and Christopher
Today was Easter Sunday and as a result, today was a special service. It was so special in fact that it started at eight thirty in the morning rather than the usual nine thirty, and I almost overslept because I couldn't sleep the night before. It was worth it though, and I'm glad that I came, because in was in the sermon in which God answered the ( Read more... ) -
"Wild Swans" by Jung Chang
Today, after probably a whole week, I managed to finish "Wild Swans" by Jung Chang. It is probably the thickest book I've read in my entire life, of course excluding my textbooks. Yet, the book covers exactly what I studied in Secondary School History; the experience of Communism in China. I do wish I had read this book when I was in Secondary ( Read more... )
