So..

The King's Ball was absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. The hard work paid off and just seeing how much people were enjoying the night.. totally worth it.

God is awesome. He provided, open doors and totally took care of everything. He even care about what I'm going to wear. I lost my top on the night.. can you believe it? Well, it bought that top the day before and Lizzie offered to alter it for me (it was too big) and she forgot it at home but she thought she took it with her to church. Anyway I was sulking away coz I have nothing to wear and I can't go home to get something nice, then Lizzie remembered that we have left over fabric from the decorations.. so we ran up to MTC room (that was where we get ready), grab the fabric and start wrapping it around me and start sewing. We made the top in 5 min or something but man, it look way better than the top that I bought. Anyway, I enjoyed the ball a lot. The food was good, the band was awesome and I get to do Ceroc..

Talking about Ceroc, last week was seriously full of Ceroc. I had a class on Tue (beginner) and Wed (beginner, intermediate and freestyle), went to Robby Burns with Mel on Thurs and did Ceroc from 8.30 pm till midnight and yesterday me and Mel went to the Woolshed for another night of dancing. My body is so sore right now. Anyway, a little drama for me last night. I was dancing with this guy, Tim, who.. ahem.. have a reputation of being a bit violent. Ok, I was dancing with him right.. (he was a lot better last night actually) and he was doing a double spin and was going to do something else when he smack his elbow straight into my lips. I ended up with split lower lips right in the middle and blood was pouring out. I freaked out a bit and Tim went to get the ice.. then I find the whole situation extremely funny. Talking about my dedication to dancing eh !!

I have so much more to write about but you guys might get bored.. so I'm going to leave it for the mean time. Chao ~

The King's Ball this year was amazing. Totally worth the effort of putting it all together. The ball will not be possible without my great team. I've leared so much from organising the Ball. God taught me a lot about so many things and He totally came through for the Ball. He even cares about what I wear !!! (serious). I still can't believe that it's all over... the whole thing felt like a dream.

Well, the whole story about the ball will be posted sometime soon (hopefully). Right now I really need to catch up on my work. I have 2 lab reports due this week and I barely started and next week, I have 2 tests.

I've posted some photos from the ball on my multiply site and will try to upload most of it asap. Right now I better go and do my report. I think I have to miss my lectures tomorrow *sigh*..

(This photo was taken on Sunday, the day after the ball, and I was in bed until 11.30 am. Yes yes, I slept in and missed church. I also stayed on the couch all day.. ahh, it was awesome)

Atmosphere from Jian's 21st

some pics from Jian's 21st BD party that take place about a week ago. It was an awesome night with good company, great food and awesome speeches. The best speech, of course, was made my me and Alana ;-) Nah, I love that poem by Mel & Tim.. especially the part with the light bulb...

The King's Ball

10 days to go, am I..

Excited? yes
Nervous? yes
Anxious? very
Freaking out? oh, don't get me started on that

This year's ball going to rock, I know it. Everything is planned are ready to go and I want to encourage everybody who's reading this... please tell people about the ball and encourage them to buy the ticket. We need more people to buy the tickets for the ball to work. So are we at the point of desperation... sadly yes. But I believe in my God... he will make it happen one way or another. Also, spread the word and pray hard guys.. we're going to need it.

14 days and counting...

The King's ball is exactly 2 weeks away from today. SCARY. Remember how I said that I'll stop being anxious. Well, it's not working. I tried not thinking about it when I'm in bed, I tried to focus on something else, I even tried to read a novel !! Well, the novel thing work for half an hour each time I pick it up. I think the only thing that actually keep me occupied right now is my lab report which is due this coming Tuesday. It's about the role of NMDA receptor in memory and learning. It is a very interesting topic but at the same time, it also is a pain in the .... !!!! I would happily type up my lab report if the results of my experiment have "*" which means there is a significant difference between the treatment groups and that my experiment worked and that it actually produce something worth writing about. But noooooooooooo... when my lab partners typed in the numbers and did statistical analysis on the results... it all came up with "ns" = not significant. Aaaaargh !!!

So what could I write? The worse part of it is... the experiment suppose to work. It'd been proven soooooooooo many times that it actually worked !! So what went wrong?? Well, probably it's because we had a pretty fat mouse to begin with and I doubt that it do a lot of exercise during its lifetime. C'mon, if I was the mouse with heated cage and constant supply of food and water, I wouldn't do much either. But I wouldn't want the be a lab mouse for all the money in the world. Considering what we did with it in the lab. We put it in a pool and let it swim around trying to find a hidden platform, then we injected a drug called CPP which supposedly stopping it from learning, move a platform to a new place and put the poor mouse in the pool again. I was sure by the end of the 2nd session, the mouse was extremely agitated and angry with us and probably want a revenge as soon as it's big enough and manage to escape the lab technicians somehow. I even thought I saw it give me an evil grin.... nah, I'm exaggerating... the lab lasts for the whole 4 hours and I was extremely tired and hungry. I see things when I'm very tired. Oh have I told you that I named it "Spunky"? Yeah.. I think it's a cool name for such a brave cute lil' mouse. I got lightly told off by the demonstrator though for naming the mouse.

Anyway, better get back to my lab report. I have to head off early tomorrow and I want to do some more typing befor I get into bed.

I am a sinner

I am a sinner.

I like to think that I am righteous while in reality, I am nasty and mean to the ones who love me. I get angry and annoyed at little things and I take it to heart. I say I "forgive" but I never forget. Somethings I know that it's my own fault things happen a certain way but I blame others anyway. I am selfish and rarely think of others first.

I am in every way the opposit of my Saviour. He gives unconditional love, He forgives and erase sin so we can be as white as snow, He came to this world to serve, not to be served, His mercy is never ending and He is forever faithful..

One more time, I shall humble myself and ask for His forgiveness and forgivemess from those around me. One more time, I shall kneel and pray that He will help me to live the right way. One more time, I shall ask for His grace to cover me and deliver me from this sin..

22 days...

till the King's Ball and I am extremely anxious. Sometimes I wonder to myself: why o why did I take this project upon myself? will things be done on time? will it turn out alright? blah blah blah. I even dreamed about it last night and it wasn't a very good one.

Yesterday, I was looking up things on the internet for the ball and I came across HireMaster website which is extremely good since it have information on the prices. So I jotted it down, ring some more people and I was in the process of writing it all up in a new piece of paper and all sort of things were running through my mind. Particularly the bit concerning how Tim still haven't get information on the archway when we was told to do so ages ago, how the tickets and posters still haven't been printed, etc and I was getting scared & annoyed by the minute. Unfortunately that's when Mel got home.. I was reading out the list of things and prices to her when she started asking me questions. Being a bad friend that I am, I started taken it out on her. I raised my voice and she raised hers back to me... fair enough cause she have every right to do so. It's not like a major row or anything.. pretty minor actually but bad enough to make me feel even worse for the rest of the day. Well, I said sorry to her afterwards and we had a brilliant dinner (Tim and Jian made it for us... they even clean up after themselves !!!) then we headed of the church then Ceroc. Man.. last night we had such an awesome time together it's unbelievable. I forgot what a great girl she is and how awesome it is to be around her. After we got home, Mel, me & Layla stayed in the kitchen having teas and milo and had a really really good talk. Well, it's not really a talk.. we were teasing Mel about her boys. Ahh good times..

I really need to wind down and not to worry so much. I have a great God and an awesome team to help me. I just need to control my temper a bit more I guess....
