开了一扇窗，发现自己差点忘了拥抱微风的感觉。

A chair fell and hit my toe rawrrr D: It's swollen like a red balloon now, I hope it's not broken =/
While icing my toe, it occurred to me that I seem to be super accident-prone when major exams are coming. Back in P6 during my PSLE year, I dislocated my right leg knee cap, and cos my primary school is a very small and congregated building, I think nearly every student and teacher knew me as the 'baika'. -.-ll After that when I recovered and could walk without the aid of crutches, I tripped and fell while running and trying to catch the traffic light green man :( Then while playing my first captain's ball game with my classmates after I dislocated my kneecap, I nearly fell again. Then the PE teacher called me the injury-prone queen, or something along that line xP

Now that my toe is super swollen and painful, I think I'm going to take my Block Test 2 wearing sandals xO I need to pray to my Father for health and safety!

On days like this I'm really thankful to God for the abundant joy and peace and everything wonderful He has brought to my heart and my life. With Him, I always find renewed passion in life and in the things I do. Amen!

After spending one whole night (or rather morning) stressing over chem questions
I can't sleep nowww~ Dx
While trying to get to sleep
I thought of this wonderful blog
which I have kind of abandoned for the past two years :(

And I decided that this has to be changed
because when I grow up and want to find memories of my younger days
other than stalking my photos on Facebook
I'm going to come back here and read all my blog posts
I'm not going to read my random tweets

Even though there aren't many interesting stuffs happening
at this stage of my life
I can pen down my thoughts!
Because recently I've been thinking a lot :)

Like yesterday night before going to sleep
I was having my daily quiet time
and I reflected on what is love and its significance
which is timely because this is a time of trial
Through setbacks and life's problems
we will feel defeated and we will feel pain
but love is our hope :)
It's not a deliberate extension to the post I wrote...3 years ago?
HAHAHAHA even though I think it's quite cool :D

To me
love is really seeing the good in one another
and wanting the best for each other
We look out for them and their needs
We want to be there for them when they need us
And we try our best to accept their weaknesses
the same way we wish for them to embrace ours
In love we find comfort and joy
With love we find the strength to carry on

I believe that love brings redemption
It's through love's mercy and grace
that we are able to acknowledge our wrongdoings
and be determined to change our ways
About a month ago Pastor How showed us a scene from Les Miserables
about Jean Valjean stealing from the bishop
who gave him accommodation when no one else was willing to
because he was jailed previously for stealing
He was like backstabbing the person who showed kindness to him
When he was caught by the guards
instead of exposing his lies and punishing him
the bishop told the guards that
he was the one who gave those silverware to Jean Valjean
After that the bishop asked him to become a better person
which he did in the end :)
That scene touched me a lot because it really
portrays the power of forgiveness and mercy
Even though it's fiction
I believe such stories occur in real life too :)

Talking about Les Miserables
When I first picked up the book when I was 8 or 9
because the cover was a picture of a mouse with a broom
I read through one-tenth of the book thinking that
it was a story about a mouse :X
Ya I gave up reading the other nine-tenths of the book
cos I couldn't understand anything -__- obviously
Until recently then I realise it's not a story about a mouse :P

mmm! Because of love
家是我们的避风港
After one tiring day of facing the harsh realities of this world
we go back home to the embraces of people who care for us the most :)
People who know our weaknesses best but will stick closest to us by our sides

Love is amazing
Love is great
And ya love makes the world go round HEEHEE :D

Sometimes life's problems are like challenging math questions. We just stare really hard at it, rereading the question again and again, hoping to find some clues of solving it. Despite having absolutely no idea of how to go about solving it, despite feeling really helpless, we never stop scribbling equations and workings, clinging on to the hope that we can finally find the way to solve it. We will never give up trying and fighting, because once we do, we will have lost the battle.

Clueless I am about solving the problems in my life right now, I'll keep on trying and become better, hoping that things will turn out fine in the end. Even though I have no idea how to go about doing it.
