Busy month

Haven’t been blogging for about a month. This month had been very busy, Especially for this week. Few weeks ago, I went to tour around the city area together with my Best friend, Feng ying. We went to Bugis, took the Circle line to Promenade station, Singapore Flyers and to Suntec city for dinner at Pepper Lunch. Photos are uploaded on Facebook.

Here we are on the F1 racing track at Singapore Flyers! :)

 

Also, I’m back with the Yuhua Harmonica Band to compete in the Asia Pacific Harmonica Festival 2010. Everything went well, songs are challenging but they are awesome pieces. The festival is going to be held for roughly about 5days at Suntec Convention Centre. And yes! I am excited because it held at the promise land of CHC! How awesome is that! Competition day is on the 2nd August. It’s going to be great!

 

For the past 2 weeks, I had been cracking my head to make decision on what courses I wanted to study in Polytechnic because the Poly had offered ‘O’ level students with the opportunity to grab a place even before we sit for our ‘O’ level. This is called the Direct Poly Admission. I’ve made up my mind and submitted the application on Monday after seeking advices from my teachers and brother. Here’s my choices:

 

1st Choice: Business Administration (Singapore Poly)

2nd Choice: Human Resources Management with Psychology (Singapore Poly)

3rd Choice: Business Studies (Ngee Ann Poly)

 

Praying hard that my application will be successful. However, even if I fail the DPA, I can try the Joint-Poly Special Admission Exercise (JPSAE) which is specially opened to students who have talents and high leadership quality. And that, I fulfill the criteria of having high leadership quality! Shall keep believing and trusting God for open doors!

 

Yesterday was a nervous day for me. It was the NCDCC CLT Course interview. Man, it was really like a Oral examination. It involves lots of thinking and quick answering. What’s more, the interviewers are new officers which during my time of SNCO & UDI courses, they are not in NCDCC yet. Which means, the interview is really important because it is the 1st impression that counts! After 1 year of waiting, I’m really praying that God will help me fulfill this small little dream of continuing my service in NCDCC.

 

Today, had my ‘O’ level Food & Nutrition Experiment Practical Examinations. Was a little lost at the start, but slowly picked up and managed to do it quite well! :) Also, I had the opportunity to attend NDP NE Show 2 this Saturday! One of my cadets gave 1 ticket to me! I’m very proud of my Cadets who are marching in the NCDCC Contingent, and its going to be awesome to see them marching live! It’s been about 4 years since I last went to watch NDP. Although this might be only NE Show, but its still going to be great!

 

I also realized that Facebook and Twitter is a place where I really meet new friends! Especially people from my church, but different Zones & Cell groups. As you know, CHC has 30,000 over members and its so hard to know ever single member. And it is great to meet new people online! People like Joseph, Chen Ee, Elijah and Jean! Its really amazing on how this social networks can bring people together!

 

To conclude, this whole month is really a tough month for me. Going through so many things, ups and downs. Lots of thinking and reflection. This reminds me that people will fail you, but God will not. If not for God’s love, comfort and grace, I might have just dried up. It is where I go through the growth process of learning to be even more humble and waiting upon the Lord. I learned that getting to the positions and desires that you want is not important, but God has planned a time for everything. If it is his will, it will be done. I got to keep persevering, keep on keeping on.

 

All right, time to turn in, got to rest well and keep going on! :)
