It's amazing how God, in his own ways, can comfort me when I'm feeling down. He decided to give me words of comfort via Facebook! They really made me feel better :)
On this day, God wants you to know ...that it's time you cleansed yourself with laughter and with tears. Let tears take out all the agony that is hidden inside you, and let laughter ignite your contagious joy. --via God Wants You to Know
When we fall.......HE PICKS US UP. When we are low.......HE ELEVATES US. When we cry.......HE GATHERS OUR TEARS. When we are broken.......HE PUTS US BACK TOGETHER. Our Savior. ♥ --via Jesus Daily
And it's amazing how, although we aren't feeling good, we still have the ability to brighten up someone else's day. And by doing so, we feel better ourselves too :)
Due to unforeseen and rather unfortunate circumstances, our group became the first to do the Socratic Seminar during LA lesson today. Was feeling so frustrated that I began spouting bad words like s*** and s***** while searching through my bag for my notes :X I MUST CLARIFY THAT I didn't spout those words to scold anyone. I was being irritated at the situation itself.
Was uber shocked after I realised what I spouted were vulgarities and that I was polluting Sinlie's ears xO But Sinlie being a nice person, said she understands and won't tell anybody that I said those words. HAHAHA aww Sinlie :):) Was quite upset after LA lesson today, not because our group became the first to go up, but because I was disappointed with myself. Other than listening and agreeing to the points raised up by the others (Jiaxing's point was uber wow!!! (Y)), my mind was practically blank diao x__x Managed to crap out something though. So 不是因为我不要讲话,是因为我没有话讲。xP
Felt quite troubled for a period of time over my screwed up Socratic Seminar, but biting ice-cream and sleeping and being able to do math questions and mugging a few chapters of Physics and reading encouraging messages on FB made me feel better le la. Especially after reading Hilary's blog post, I began to feel rather proud of myself! :DD Even though I may have screwed it, at least I had the courage to stand up, bring my chair to the front and JUST DO IT. I'm proud of my group members too! We are all brave souls. Thank you Hilaryyyyy ;D
I understand the reason why they could not go. I do not blame them cos it's really quite unfair to them also. But I must admit that for a moment, or rather, ermmm for like 5 minutes? :X I was quite irritated at the cher, like... why must you do it today! Postpone to tomorrow cannot meh! However, come to think of it, he makes sense la. We should have been long prepared already, during the holidays. So he wasn't being unreasonable. Moreover, he gave us 10 minutes to prepare, so I really do not have any reason to feel unjust or whatnot.
This teaches me that... life will not always be like what or how you want it to be. It will not be smooth-sailing, and many such events will randomly pop out in our lives. Therefore, we should always be mentally prepared to tackle such problems, take it to our strides and face these challenges bravely and confidently, and not be cowards! STAND UP STAND UP :)
就算有再可怕的大风大浪,我也要不要脸地继续笑着.
