Spent 2 hrs straight in the library just now. Don't know what I was doing.. maybe just stoning there cos the armchairs are very comfortable..
Anyhow, lots of people might be cutting their hair short now. I think it all started with xiuhuan counting the number of people with short hair in our class, which is a mere
9. Then I decided to cut mine
real short cos I was sick of not-short-not-long hair. Then I talked xh into cutting too, so now that makes 10 people in our class with short hair. (: Life is so boring that sometimes even this type of pathetic "
entertainment" makes me happy lOl.
Went to eat chicken rice at far east again. I shan't go there anymore, lest I become
addicted to the chicken rice.
(I am avoiding blogging my freakish exam. )
I
love school. I really do. The people in my class
rock. Oh yes, must really thank
xiao yu here. She was
so nice and sweet. On the night before my exam she sms-ed me once, and then she called me (I was watching brainest kid on 5) to tell me to jia you. I love you xy! (: I was really feeling
totally down and out cos
all my practising didn't seem to be working, & then she called! So
nice right... (: Had to give her a hug when I came back.
Oh, and there were some people who got pretty worked up over the Physics SPA today. Chill people, it's just a SPA, and the worst that could happen? Fail it, which is a mere 6 marks (I think). So this isn't worth crying over alright? Sometimes stress can really eat you up... We must learn how to deal with that.
I think there are many
many people with preconceived notions about christianity. I will talk about that later, but for now, I just want to clarify (that sounds so much like one of my teachers.. >.<) that if you
are a christian, you
don't have to go out and evangelize and grab people off the street to talk to them. If you're a christian, you
don't have to read the Bible
everyday, or go to church
every Sunday. If you're a christian, you
don't have to walk around with a
halo on your head, simply cos
you can't.
The thing is, when you're a
true Christian, you don't
have to do these stuff, cos you'll
very naturally
want to. And when you
can't go church sometimes, it doesn't make you a
bad Christian. Christianity is about
you and God, not you and church. So I don't get it when people say that they don't want to be Christians cos they don't have
time to go church or to read the Bible every day. I
don't read the Bible every day, and that's a fact that I'm not proud of, but that's the way it is. It
doesn't mean I'm not a
good christian. I believe in God, the One who died
for me, and so whether I go church or not is not the main issue. So to those people out there- Christianity is about you and God. Nothing less than that. It is never an
obligation, never a
must-do.
You're free, because
He set you free.
"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else." -C.S. Lewis
