Running the race- Short&Long
Conquered 6km! Pushed myself to run and I can say I had a very good time with MightyG as we brisk-walked and sang. :) We totally should exercise together more often! Had 2 egg mayo sandwiches+2 bananas+ Big Breakfast right after the run. Talk about replenishing the energy lost. HAHA.
Chewing on Joey’s sermon about R-AGE’s DNA, I am more determined to commit any plans that Josh and I have for the cell into prayer. I want to be committed to praying not only for the cell but for people around me. Gonna try and implement some stuff in cell for it to take place. Can’t wait! :)

Tell the truth that hurts, Rather than the lie that kills.
Totally affirms me on being truthful with one another. True friendships, I want to bother to tell people about stuff not because I want to put them down. But cos I want to see them rise up again and cos I truly care. :)
Alright, need to settle some PR project stuff then head to bed early. Energy pretty much drained up from the long day ytd at church+sleepover at Nora’s and this morning’s run.
PS: Thanks guys who were there to encourage me for the previous post. Appreciate it! :)

Its definitely true :)
Last night wasn’t a good night, really. A whole series of event have happened beyond this online site. And I’m sure you’ll have got to know of some of these nonsense if you’ve been around me these weeks/months. Went to bed at 8pm, woke up at 1am feeling worse than ever. First time ever where I prayed till I cried. I figured that it was the feeling of fear, not knowing what to expect, bitterness and stress. I don’t usually like to think about stuff. Cos I believe what for think about all the endless possibilities anyways? (Definitely not a mel! :P)
But yeah, issues are not resolved. Things might end up messier than before. But I’m not feeling burdened by that issue anymore. Cos as hard as it is, I told God that it’s a great chance for me to learn how to love. Learn how to let His glory shine through my weaknesses. That whenever I’m angry, there is a chance to show love. Whenever I’m feeling unjustified, there is the chance to show love. Not easy okay! You can help me by asking me to ’shut up’ when I complain. Ask me to tell God about it. HAHA. :)
I choose to let God into this area of my life only because I trust in Him. Living by faith and not by sight is easier to sing in the song ‘One Way’ than living it out. I’m gonna take this HUGE step of faith. God, You help me. For I cannot do it alone :)
PS: Meeting @rainingruffles for shopping trip later!
I believe that I deserve a break from school work! :D
Clump of activites
BZSE Year 2s 2010 – Spot me!
This whole week was pretty much spent on preparing for this major event. With all the last minute changes and staying back in school till 10pm just to hang out and help out in any little way possible, I enjoyed myself :) Y’know when everyone is saying that time passes super fast and that they can’t keep up. As cliche as it sounds, it’s definitely true. 4th time wearing the school blazer and the 5th would most probably be the last ever.
Gonna save the journeys of school and all for 2012 where we finally graduate. Sounds like a long way from now, but it’s nearer than you think. It’s my prayer that even as we have no clue on what the future holds for us, God You lead the way for us. Too scary to go through that journey alone. Really. :)
A very tired out Sheena with her two loves at 10pm
Managed to stay awake during service+ cell+ dinner despite the long day yesterday! I’m starting to appreciate the new kids more and more. Especially my Elle and Jolene. Was very encouraged through some of their sharings! :) And the girls shared in a dark kindergaten room. Those silly girls went to off the lights cos it was more ‘romantic’. Cute or what please!
Sang silly songs for the kids and instead of feeling honoured, they were quite turned off. HAHAHAA. You can try asking them about it! :P But anyhow. It’s true that when you open up to people, they’ll find it more comfortable to open up to you. I wanna share about my past experiences, mistakes and a lot a lot with my kids so that they’ll be blessed! :)

Dinner was at the Garden Plaza at Lot One and just when we all thought we saw a super bright star! It ended up moving cos it was an aeroplane. HAHA. But, managed to see pretty stars at the playground though! So blessed! :)
1 more major project and 1 law essay to be done.
& Run for My Lunch (RML) 6km marathon next Sunday!
God Bless us.
Captured
Few of the so many so many old photos that I found in my hard disk! 1 year but it feels like so much has happened. Going to 2 years in Ngee Ann and so much has happened. As much as I dislike poly life, I know that I’m gonna miss this place for sure. Miss the coursemates, lecturers and just school life by itself.
Trying, trying. :)
Little Prison Break
One hamster escaped cos its’ cage door wasn’t closed. It’s been 1 day and 1 night! But it’s still alive. Cos the father left some nuts in the living room before he slept last night. And, its gone in the morning! Left with the shells :P HAHA. Hamster has not been found. It’s still hiding somewhere… Dad will be on duty tonight to stay awake and wait for it to appear!
Need to get home early from school tonight to start hunting for it. Stay safe, ham!
Xilin’s 19 and The Big Day
Superwomyn and Teresa being naughty!
Sheena ‘Are you doing something to my hair? Eh!’
Teresa ‘No, I’m not! Don’t be paranoid!’
Met the girls after cell on Saturday to celebrate Xilin’s 19! Been like 5 months since our previous meeting. I’m thankful that we get to meet one another although its just during the birthdays. :) I just always have the feeling of these girls being there though they’re not always there physically. You know the feeling where you know you can ring them up to rant at anytime? Yeah, that’s it! :)
Like how the bunch of us are as of today despite the many disagreements, conflicts, different views and stands that we share. And I really want this to continue and together we’ll be the trendiest grannies in 40 years’ time! :P

Biggest project in Poly so far. Project where BZSE students pitch a proposal for MINDS and the group thats selected gets to start up the Social Enterprise. The real thing like real thing. Real business. Exciting, much?
A lot of thoughts regarding this project but the journey is coming to an end. And all I ask of is that God’s glory to shine through this project. Regardless of the results, God you work through us :)
Tmr, 930am, School of Humanities Level 4 Meeting Room.
Little Angels
1. Starbucks tumblr from Mummy2!
2. Pretty board from Mammoth!
3. Egg Mayo sandwich from MightyG! <3
4. Pretty laptop skin from Zheng,B.
So blessed, so blessed! :) Managed to meet Cher the mummy this morning to have a short breako. And she knew my starbucks tumblr was leaking and she bought me a new one! SO SWEET PLEASE. :D God has sent so many angels to bless me, really! Aiyo, cannot contain the joy!
Mass cell games ytd was the bomb! Cheered the kids on and after a while they begin to cheer not cos they were forced to, but they really wanted to! I know its a small thing. But it really did encouraged me A LOT :) And I really pray that strong friendships will be built in this cell!
Okay, wanna call MightyG now! So happy still! :)
Toilet Madness
Heehee (Y) Two friendships made in NP that never ever will be forgotten! I know for sure that I want to continue meeting, hanging out, singing with these 2 lovelies of mine! :) So blessed!
Talks with Joey always encourage me to keep investing my time in not only the kids’ lives but also lives of people around me. And I’m not just gonna stop at where I am now~ God, take me to greater heights! :)
Realised I seldom talk about school here. So I shall make it an effort to do so, such that I can look back and know what was my school life all about.. Feel that X-cultural project was a good wake-up call to NOT start on projects so last minute. 40% worth of a module in exchange for a rude awakening. Good lesson :)
It’s the peak period in school. Have another deadline on the coming Sunday. Huge weightage of 40% with a panel of judges from both HMS and MINDS to come in to grade us. Scary, much. But I believe that God is sovereign through the moments of weaknesses, frustration, brain-frying times. And I’m just thankful for Him being in control. How scary would it be if He wasn’t in control? :)
PS: Need to finish doing Grace’s Christmas present. Tell me how much lagger can I get?
Giving them to You!
All my commitments, convictions and plans for 2010! Intend to share the gospel before leaving Ngee Ann and partnering mylove to do it! EXCITED! :D Whatever plans God has, I choose to say send me~
1st cell of the year with FoolzI2010 was not as awkward as I thought it would be like. Zi-highed for an hour plus and got a bit tired after that. But I’m glad that some of the kids are already quite open in sharing! Thank you God! :) Need to sit down with JoshNg and plan stuff for the cell! And also need to wrap up foolzI2009 with xian! More than willing to do wrapping up. Love being around those kids! :D
Shucks, need to wake up at 8ish tmr. Heading to Novena to finally start on X-cultural project. 40% Monday 530pm due. Jiayou BZSE folks!
PS: Can you tell how excited I am about 2010 just by the number of ‘!’ ? HEH :D God, keep this fire going!
