Din go school today. Woke up late. Haha. So i'll write a letter and then take the bio paper with the student councillors.. That also means that i'll have more time to study.. *evil laugh*

Was at macs with huiling, huiying and ruizhen on tues. Studying. After the study group, ruizhen and i was discussing about outreach tools in jc. Blah blah blah. Then she told me that that day, she was sitting alone in school reading 'The Case for Christ', a book she borrowed from Freedy, when two of her juniors approached her. They started chatting and one of the girls saw the book. "Oh, I think i'm going to be a Christian. I'm attending my friend's church now." She pointed to her friend and said, "She also."

haha.. usually is we go and find juniors, now is juniors come and find us.. haha.. think that 17-18 is an age when people start to ponder about God. My friends would laugh and ignore me whenever i asked them for service in secondary school.. In jc, i've somehow brought 2 peeps to come and know God, brought 6 peeps to service.. haha... in the search for identity...

This world, this world is cold
But you don't, you don't have to go
You're feeling sad you're feeling lonely
And no one seems to care
You're mother's gone and your father hits you
This pain you cannot bare

But we all bleed the same way as you do
We all have the same things to go thru

Hold on...if you feel like letting go
Hold on...it gets better than you know

Your days you say they're way too long
And your nights you can't sleep at all (hold on)
And you're not sure what you're looking for
But you don't want to no more
And you're not sure what you're waiting for but you don't want to no more

But we all bleed the same way as you do
And we all have the same things to go through

Hold on...if you feel like letting go
Hold on...it gets better than you know

Don't stop looking you're one step closer
Don't stop searching it's not over...hold on

What are you looking for?
What are you waiting for?
Do you know what you're doing to me?
Go ahead...what are you waiting for?

Hold on...if you feel like letting go
Hold on...it gets better than you know

Don't stop looking you're one step closer
Don't stop searching it's not over...

Hold on...if you feel like letting go
Hold on...it gets better than you know...hold on

-hold on-

Was at the library today.. went to the toilet to wash my face, and i met this lady combing her hair. She's quite attractive, but she seems uneasy with my presence. I was looking around fer toilet paper and she kept looking at me. Well, i went on to wash my face, and she went on to comb her hair.

When i was about to leave, she said to me, "Look at the amount of hair i dropped?" She held out with two hands a comb she was using, it had close to ten strands of hair on it. She laughed to herself, then told me, " I'm dropping so much hair because of my blood cancer."

"Oh," i said and nodded with sympathy and smiled, as if blood cancer was nothing serious.

"You came back from school?"

"No, i don't have school today. I came to study as there's an exam tml."

"Oh, so you've been studying hard? I can tell that you're tired, the way you speak, you sound like you don't have much energy. Do take care of yourself ya? Go home and sleep well, and good luck for your exams."

Smiling, she continued to comb her hair. I walked out of the toilet. She's such a strong person. Though she's gotten blood cancer, she continued to live her life to the best that she know how. And she's secure about herself. What bought me to shame was that it was her who encouraged me, not vice versa.

I sat down in the cafe, constantly turning my head to see if the lady's coming out from the toilet. I never saw her again. I reckoned God had sent her to me.
