Annoyance

Lately i've been feeling quited annoyed for a number of reasons.

Getting bugging me about going to KK:
It happens around every kk so far and i'm starting to get quite annoyed. I say NO and state honestly why i don't want to and some people just don't respect this and try to persuade me more or make me feel bad. I've been once last year and I am pretty sure I won't go ever again. I really don't like clubbing or kk although it's not that bad to see people you haven't seen in ages - you're bound to bump into so many people especially from bshs. Heard Black Eyed Peas were there though? True or rumour? Anyway, end of story - I honestly don't feel like i'm missing out on anything. Rather spend night at home :D.

Another minor thing that annoyed me is:
exam timetable got changed -> 2 exams now on last day - one at 8:30 am and other at 5:30pm. 5 hours of exams yay in a day.

I really love this scripture in Philippians...it's been helping me get through tough times or when I feel down or can't do anything. It is so hard to find contentment in christ sometimes but this helps i think:
"I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation...I can do everything through him who gives me strength." (Philippians 4:12-13). The whole book on Philippians is amazing to see how Paul rejoiced in christ no matter what even in chains. Probably one of my favourite books i've read so far.

Missions night at CCCB st lucia should be good tomorrow night!!! can't wait =)

can't believe half of hols over & what have i done so far?
2 days of catching up with friends + DFO today with mum. Study - pretty non-existent like expected. should do assignments but it can wait a bit more. procrastinate much?

yay =D

WOOT! Found my exam timetable - out so early but hopefully it doesn't change... so incredibly HAPPY!!! =D

Unit Paper name Exam date Exam time Exam duration
LSB255 CT1 HUMAN ANATOMY 31 Oct 2009 08:30 am 02:40
LSB492 MICROBIOLOGY 13 Nov 2009 05:30 pm 02:10
LSB250 HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY 09 Nov 2009 08:30 am 03:10

awesome exam timetable - probably means i'll probably be lazy so feel free to kick me maybe hahahaha =P. Microbiology should die though! Learning so many different microorganisms with wierd names =S. i'll just be happy to pass honestly. dodgy lecturer ><. Such a gay subject -sorry about my rant although it is an interesting subject i guess.

anyway, away from uni: i've still been extremely antisocial - haven't been out in 2 days, make that 3 after tomorrow but yeah i don't really mind that much. Really great to have time alone to think about important things and spend time with family and god. SUPE was awesome. great discussions. Lots to think about, even though i'm sure we all think about bgr haha. Main thing i got was gotta be content with christ first and foremost. god is really great :). lately, i've been so encouraged to see how he has worked amongst quite a number of my friends, anything is truly possible with him.

I am also so grateful that I still have a job and related to my degree and in this economic downturn. There were two stores open and about a month ago, the old store finally closed and everything got shifted to the new store. Basically, I haven't worked for 3 weeks and I called my boss up to ask about my shifts and he told me he couldn't give me anything for at least another month or 2 as the business has been pretty bad. Not surprising considering, I MADE $3 (nylon cord) IN LIKE 5-6 SHIFTS when i worked at the new store!! I was pretty worried as I haven't learnt anything or practised my skills for 2 months and had already forgotten quite a lot. Thankfully, he gave me the option to work at Browns Plains so here I am now - had my first shift last saturday and it was a pretty cruisey day. I must say people are quite rude (having worked there during the winter hols) but I am blessed to even have a job and the woman and optom i work with are both lovely and helpful. They both helped me to 'revise' the basic stuff - basic dispensing, measuring PDs and dotting pupils etc. I think it will be a great opportunity to be able learn to how to deal maturely and nicely with all patients (in a godly way) - difficult, rude or whether.

>>>>>>>>>>>>HOLS - FRIDAY =D!<<<<<<<<<<<<<

So relaxed

I have 3 things due before the midsem break and i'm not stressing. funny how i'm not that stressed. I should be like super stressed but i'm not. strange but good =).

last week's been hectic especially last friday. Had 2 exams on friday, one of which was at 6pm!!! Anatomy ><. Glad that god helped me through it. Pray really helps beforehand. My mind was so slow at the start but it got better thankfully.

anyway i have a lot of free time this year, ppl keep asking me what i do? well, indeed that's a good question. what would you do? I do procrastinate quite a lot. I realise i have been rather anti-social this semester (not that i'm studying consistently) compared with last semester but it's been really good to spend a lot more quiet time with god and learning more about myself and spending time with family more and occasionally hanging out with friends. nothing interesting but i don't mind having things this way. i guess i am introverted although mum thinks i'm extroverted. haha.

So many b'days this month and next month it's insane! Happy OLD month =P j/ks. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL SEPT & OCT babies! Just realised as I went shopping from 2 cards today.

anyway, how do you add people on your profile (link to other ppl's blogs)? I have noticed that some ppl have added me but i have no idea how to add it onto my page. please help thnx ^^. i'm a big noob at this.

i fail at updating as you can tell =p. can't wait til holis!

Blogger Bekkie =O

WOW, seems like just about everyone has a blog now!! The number of yfers having a blogspot amazes me and how many of you can update it so often is like whoa! I guess it's classified as a form of procrastination but i think it's always good to reflect on many things or your day/week. i shall put some effort into this entry! It's always good to reflect and learn from things. Hope i won't bore you guys too much =P


Here's what's been happening in my second semester so far (7 weeks already!):
  • BLT+ : It was definitely one of the highlights of the year for me in terms of my christian walk. It was about desiring god from the heart as many already know -> see yfonline.wordpress.com for a summary!
  • Uni: I went from 1-> 3 subjects. It took several weeks for me to adjust to the huge increase in workload. nerd much? As you can imagine, i have to study a lot more now. Oh i love my fridays, 11 hours of uni => 7 hours. yay for lecture recordings! First midsemester last friday and 1 a week now til sept hols. yay!
  • Friends: God has truly blessed me with some very special christian friends this year whom I can trust, have fellowship and share my burdens with. At the same time, it has become harder to maintain friendships with non-christians but it's important to keep in touch with them too. Gotta find the balance i guess.
  • Work: I haven't learnt anything this semester so far =(. I've only sold one nylon cord $3 haha. Some may say I'm so lazy. It's because we had two stores open and it was the newer store I was working at was super quiet so i studied as there was NO internet and customers.
  • GOD: I love how god continually reveals himself to us in so many ways...it's something i've realised so much lately. He is constantly changing us as we seek him more =D. He has also made me realise that despite the tough situations we face, he won't ever us let us endure anything that we can't bear and he will deliver us free from it eventually if we faithfully trust him. He knows best and we should wait patiently on him with complete joy in everything.
Congrats to all 6 people who got baptised today too!
