It is so easy to get discouraged. To grow bitter, to turn sour, and to flunk an exam.

All you need is to lose your focus.

Take your eyes off the ball and you are gone.

Poly life comes like a lamb and goes like a lion. Quite the opposite of March.

Semester 1 is drawing close to an end soon and it never ceases to amaze me how

Youth camp is a week away.

It's my first youth camp so I kind of have mixed feelings about it, partially worried

cause my group is the "high" type and that I have e-learning that same week

(e-learning might be my reason to go to STARBUCKS, of course I won't abuse it though.)

Plus I am not getting the hype that everyone else is, or that youth camp vibe.

But still, I looking forward to the awesome stuff God is going to bring.

Well to sum up what has been going on,

I have become part Malaysian (Or JBsian).

I have seen the great work that God started in JB firsthand.

I ate Auntie Anne's pretzels for the first time in my life and it was love at first bite.

I learnt quite a lot about myself.

I learnt Futsal, a variant of soccer.

I love my life, despite how some people see it as rushing in and out of the country in a week.

Tell me just how great God is.

I got a practice soccer ball from my dad.

I managed to buy two pairs of (NIKE)soccer boots.

I got through tests and assignments despite not being in the country every weekend.

I did get a decent grade for one assignment ( although I do admit I wanted it better)

I made a lot more quality friends.

I grow closer to my past friends.

I grew closer to God. ( Although this is always ever changing)

Thank God for his presence in my life!

Focus. On the right things and life does seem a lot brighter.

Count your blessings, not your offerings.

Pray not whine

Persevere and not grow bitter.

Going on to another topic.Which is age.

I never thought that 18 would come so soon.

I used to think that people left the earth to be meet our maker at the old age of 20.

But with 18 comes a new set of questions and responsibilities.

I remember the times when there were crush sprees. So much that my friend said I would

eventually be crushed to death. He was right!

Well but it kind makes me think that the last time those stuff happened was when I was

still a young teenager...

As I looked at my friends who are in good relationships ( appropriate and Godly) and it made

me wonder, my next girlfriend might eventually be the person I marry.

And its scary when you think of such stuff cause you go... I feel so old, as well as

who is going to be the one.

(Its the kind of stuff you can't ask daddy or mummy)

It would soon be time to face the real decisions of life. And thats why I used to think

that I would die by 20, because that would be a real quick escape from it all. HAHA

And now listening to Angels & Airwaves, just brings back the nostalgic feeling of those days

walking around in the district of Yio Chu Kang & Bishan, wearing my heart on my sleeve.

Now it feels so different.

I've grown up.

HAH. Now that it what you call a reflective article.

But what makes this great is that it is not graded.

Night night people.
