I'm blogging in the midst of exams!

Listening to Corrinne May can be quite soothing.

Just reminded this week that God always gives back to you much much more than what you give to Him. Amazing divine mathematics.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.

Not easy to think about such things all the time. So easy to slip back into negativity and a life of "what-ifs" and "if-only". I'm amazed how some people seem so joyful all the time.

Its squeeze everything into a nice timetable so I can spend as little time there as possible. So different from my formal schooling years. Days spent in CCA and all kinds of other activities. And I have enough AC memorabilia to open a museum! When I was still living the land of red, blue and gold, everything with an AC crest also will buy. Now when I walk into co-op, those NUS stuff doesnt appeal to me at all.

Still, I thank God for carrying me through this semester. I know He's on my side even when life sometimes looks like this:
