i can really feel alot of evil building up in my heart and it feels very sucky. as each day passes by, i see my heart feeling more and more bitter towards everything around me. i really don't know what's going on with me at all.

Continuing from my previous post, I can't really blame my tutor about my spiritual problem as my quiet time is not consistent at all. Ya, anyway after O Levels (still hating the O word!), everything's gonna be great! :D
anyway today sucks la. why do i always have to give up my spiritual/social life for the sake of a maths tuition. i mean it's not that i don't want to have the tuition it's just that the tuition used to be on Sunday morning but now the tutor can't make it, SO I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO GIVE UP GOING TO CHURCH SO I CAN GO FOR TUITION cause if i don't go my mum will scold and make a big fuss about it. and the worst part is the tutor knows that i go to church at that time and told me to put tuition as a priority. another example is tomorrow, my cousin has a one month old party but i can't go BECAUSE OF TUITION. NEITHER CAN I GO TO CHURCH.. and my mum supports it. i told him to put tomorrow's tuition in the morning but he keep saying cannot and he always expects me to GIVE UP my rights to church, etc. just for tuition. i don't think it's fair at all!
God show me a way.

Service Learning Cambodia 2007! (:
Day 1
Left for the airport and Jerome’s uncle fetched us there at like 3.30am. We reached the airport at around 4am. Met alden, sheng wei, leroy, alex at burger king and we ate there. after that checked in with the group of 40+. went to the departure hall after that and walked around abit before boarding the plane. Plane ride was pretty funny. Sat next to qiao sen and Leroy. Crapped a whole lot about final destination & we were pretty scared the plane would crashhh. Touched down and boarded the bus which brought us to the hotel named princess hotel. Couldn’t check in as it was still too early for that so we left our baggages in the teacher’s room. Ms toh fell sick with fever so she rested there. Went to the hotel restaurant to catch breakfast. Did’nt eat much as I ate earlier already. After that went for a city tour to like some flea market like that. Sold many many stuff there. I bought 2 shirts as it was quite cheap and nice. After that continued the city tour to a lot of different places. Took some group photos. Then we went to some high class buffet lunch. After that it was a drive to see the school we were gonna help in the village. The place looked quite run down and had many flies there but the sight of the children took all that away. They were so cute la!! We were told of what we had to do for the next few days. After checking the school out, checked in to the hotel. We were given some time to wash up before going for dinner. Watched the hotel tv. To my surprise there were so many channels!!! :D my room mate was alex. Yea so we went for dinner at some place which I can’t remember. Went back to hotel after that and had devotions with the group. Then after that it was our own free time.
Day 2
Today we had to wake up pretty early. Morning call was at 5.30 . woke up & showered then jerome, alex, alden, Leroy, sheng wei and I went down for breakfast. Haha it was the same place as the day before. After that, went to the school. We were divided into groups of 3. the diggers, the painters and the teachers. I was in the diggers. So we went to collect our tools and started digging the area to lay the pipes down. It was real tough work especially under the very very very hot sun!! however, it was the first time I did such a thing and it really left me with quite an experience. We had many many water breaks and never did water taste so sweet! Went for lunch at some village place. I guess it was the food there that caused the food poisoning later on. After lunch, went back to the school to work. Many people started to fall sick, some vomited, others had real bad headaches. but, we just continued working. At 4+, we had Cambodian language class. The teacher was great and interesting but I just couldn’t grasp the concept of khmer. Haha, the children there were really very poor but contented. It really tells me how much I should appreciate what I have and not keep asking for more. After the class we went off back to the hotel to shower and then go for dinner. By dinner, I started to have fever. It really sucked though. I thought that it was just a normal fever. After dinner, went back to the hotel and showered. Caught abit of tv and then went to sleep. Alex was not feeling well already. He felt like vomiting la. Suddenly in the middle of the night, I woke up to vomit. I thought I would feel better already la but in the end that was just the start of a long long nightmare.We had devotions that night as well and that really lightened up my day.
Day 3
Woke up at 5 to bathe. Was feeling super sick. Alex was already very sick so I brought him to go look for ms toh. We were given some medicine which tasted pretty crappy. By then I realized my fever reached 39.7 la. I was experiencing serious vertigo. Never felt anything like it before. So basically, I slept on the bed for almost the whole morning. When ms toh woke me up to go to the hospital, I was feeling even sicker!! I could not even stand properly la. So we went to the hospital by a van along with mark ho, joseph, Joanna. Amy & alden accompanied their various friends there. I was first to see the doctor. The doctor said I had to be hospitalized la!!!! I was thinking wa crap!! And I had to be put on drip to replace the salt level in my body.. the needle was very big, bigger than the usual vaccination needles. Felt very very uncomfortable. Rested on the hospital bed. My bunkmate was joseph, my p4 friend. So we had a lot of chances to catch up on life. It was great talking to him again. But it was a great pity that we were unable to help in the school. The children really needed our help la. But I couldn’t give it to them. Then it struck me, why am I always worrying about my problems and all. My problems are so small compared to what so many other people are going through. I was saddened by that fact as it only goes to show that I may be a Christian but some where in my heart, there still is selfishness. But that’s all gonna change soon. Skipped the hospital dinner and basically just slept there and talked the whole day. Time seemed to pass so slowly. We were practically counting down the hours till day break. Everything throughout that day felt so dreamy. I even lost my sense of humor!! I knocked out at 7pm.
Day 4
Woke up asking joseph: is it 8pm?? It felt like only 1 hour had passed since I fell asleep but actually, it was already 4.30am in the morning. Boy was I relieved. Almost 10 hours had passed in the blink of an eye. Immediately, I went to mr wong’s room and asked me what time can we go back? Had a breakfast of porridge. It was quite tasty excluding the liver part. Really really really really wanted to go to the school in the later part of the day to help but I guess we couldn’t. so we were discharged eventually and I went back to the hotel feeling much better. Ever since then, I had a phobia whenever I put something in my mouth. I was scared of getting food poisoning again. Went back to the hotel room to catch more sleep as we only had to meet for dinner at 6.30 and it was only lunch time. It was a good time of reflection for me as I was able to see through my past actions through a different set of eyes. I guess after exposure to the people of
Day 5
Today would be the second best day of the trip. the long bus ride to siem reap was quite fun la except for the boring sleeping parts. It was a 4 hour + bus ride la! Had a few stops in between the journey to catch a breather etc. so once we reached the place, we went for lunch at some place. It was buffet style AGAIN! But this time round the food wasn’t that bad. In fact after so many days, I have just started to get used to the food there. After that, we checked in the hotel. OH MAN! THE HOTEL WAS BIG BIG BIG. We could climb and we did clim over the balcony to get to the next room la. There was a single bed and a queen size bed! Oh ya, and that day was the star wars marathon crap so there wasn’t any other movie on star movies except for STAR WARS.. it’s a nice show but it gets real boring after watching it a few times. After that, we went to
Day 6
Today’s gonna be the last day in
so basically that's a brief break down of what happened in cambodia. it was really an eye-opener for me. it has changed my view on life alot. i miss cambodia STILL! i guess God has many ways of showing us new stuff!

Dear daddy,
it's been a long road since sec 1 in chinese. my grades have been constantly dipping. i know i may not even deserve to pass this paper, but whatever the results, what ever you bless me with, i'm content. i may feel unsastisfied about a C or a B grade or maybe even a fail. but i'll be content with the results because i know my preperation for the paper does not deserve high grades. i commit it all to you daddy. i'm sorry for drifiting away from you so much for the past 1 & 1/2 years.. sorry for forsaking my relationship with you. i've been broken many times but yet almost everytime i fail to see your broken heart at my wrong doings. i yearn to change my heart o daddy, may it be a heart of humbleness and be full of the joy of the lord! once again i commit everything to you. i pray that you'll bless all the participants in the exams & bless them too with good grades. in daddy's most precious name, AMEN! :D:D:D
i feel much better now! :)
