So what have I been up to? I was pretty much caught up with trials for SPM examination, It was the first time I saw everyone really pulling up their socks into studying. I've gotten back a few of my test papers with results that are both good and bad. Nevertheless, I praise God for them.

Earlier on this week, a few of the Ex-prefects for the 2006/2007 term were given a chance to visit the retarded children's school. Most of us were excited but we did not really expect to gain such an experience which really opened our eyes. Of course, it was a great opportunity to skip class, but behind all these, there's really a great lesson to learn. The school was located near the Ong tiang Swee Primary School.
Upon our arrival, we were divided into 4 groups. I was with Tzin Yee's group (mini swimming pool) It was such a fun thing to play with the kids. But what really shook me was how well mannered these kids were. When I was talking to this one kid, I asked him a few things. Soon after, he pointed towards a mini net, I reached for it and held it to him. As he reached out to grab the net words came out from his mouth "Thank you".
To me what makes a better person is how well-mannered one is. A highly educated person may not even recognise the words "Thank you". But this kid, he did. From this incident, I learned to be thankful at all times. How blessed are we, to be able to coordinate our body normally, how blessed are we to be able to learn properly, how blessed are we to be able to express ourselves in colourful words and how blessed are we that we can sing and praise GOD!
It is undeniably true that, His grace is sufficient for us,
God touched me with another song the day before this visit. And really, without him, who are we? This song is still untitled as I really don't know what title should I use. Praise GOD for it.
"Your grace is sufficient for me
For your power is made perfect in weakness.
For when I'm weak then I am strong
Apart from Thee I have no other Rock.
For you are my strength.
My anchor, firm and strong"
For your power is made perfect in weakness.
For when I'm weak then I am strong
Apart from Thee I have no other Rock.
For you are my strength.
My anchor, firm and strong"
