Post- A level Chinese; Pre- A level Project Work

This is going to be somewhat like a nonsensical post. I see it coming.

A levels

I may have to retake my Chinese next year, I don't know. I dare not think of the mistakes I made. It's over anyway, no point harping on it. I will still keep my Chinese resources though.

Project work. We whine and babble about how useless a subject it is. We all do, don't we, J1s?
It's really the last lap now. I hate putting up a front all the time, acting cool and calm however furious I may be. I feel like a hypocrite. We can't choose who we want to work with, that's when all the inequalities among individuals come in. It has its pros and cons. We all get fed up with a certain someone(s) in the group at some point in time. Does this divide the group, or unite it? I don't know. I don't want to end up revealing too much about the status of my own group and generate unwanted comments, online or otherwise.

I just want to get it over and done with.

The Pre-U students say, abolish PW, it's too time-consuming.
I say we continue with it. I don't see why we (our seniors included) should go through all these PIs, GPPs, EoMs, I&Rs, WRs and OPs while the future pre-U students' don't. They wanna take A levels in Singapore, they'd jolly well suffer as their seniors did.

Hahahah I sound really pissed.


Television

Not too long ago I watched the making of Changi Airport's Terminal 3 on Man Made Marvels on Discovery Channel. Makes me feel proud of this Garden City. Also, I discovered how much I can discover from watching Discovery Channel, this makes things so discoverable and serves as a reminder of how much remains undiscovered and how I need to discover the things already discovered or I will be discovered as an ancient fellow who cannot catch up. LOL.

Today, I discovered the joy of watching television programs. Documentaries, in particular.

Main Service

Pastor Daniel's sermon on servanthood and being platinum Christians was really powerful. Some of his points slapped me hard in the face.. Stuff like we need to serve more than the church needs us. This triggered the 'on' switch which lighted the light bulb within me. I'm not perfect, nobody is. None of us are really "good enough" or fit to serve the all-powerful King who has been living since God-knows-when. I know, I cannot keep takinging and receiving, there are two ends to it - giving and taking. I have to give too. Teaches me to be more humble, leaves less or no room for pride to take residence in myself.



I'll go apologise to her, I think God's speaking to me... That small dispute has been tugging at my heart and I got a little impatient with her a few hours ago.
They are, ultimately, still my friends and I will still see them at least until the end of A levels.
