i think i spent most of it wondering whether or not to do homework.
and going to various camps.
this week was awesomeeee.
monday was my birthday so ka onn came over to play then i had piano lessona dn a ate a giant chocolate cookie.
and i didnt feel fat yet.
then tuesday i went to camp till thursday which was awesome.
the camp was called PIERCE and its a church camp.
so basically the gII youth went to church and stayed there for 3 days.
and we had a rgeat time with God.
i really feel i've grown with the Lord.
seriously.
i feel so much closer now i've finally decided that i will never miss a day of devotions again till i die.
how many times have i made that resolution and not succeeded?
many but God's helping me this time.
and i don't know.i feel at peace with the world now
one time during service we were all praying.praying in tougues and such
then pastor ian came and prayed for me.
joni can i pray for you?
-yes
then he went on ad said something i don't really remember and he said something about a gift God was giving to ma and i should open my heart and let it in and not just look at the wrapper.
then he left and i opened my heart and said to God-i'm waiting,do what you want.
then something came over me i just started crying and crying and i fell to the floor.
such is the power of God.
I felt so warm and so loved.it wasnot an emotion.something really came over me.
then i cried out,Oh Lord,What is it?Unveil my eyes that i may see.
then he said-I'll unveil it in time to come.
i felt peace...
yeah then we were praying a lot.
i think prayer is really powerful lah.
seriously.
and the games in camp were fun too!
there was this game where our entire group of 7 had to tape up our mouths and decide what we wanted for dinner.only the group leader Amos could untape his mouth.
amos:you all want hot dogs right?
all:*nod nod*
amos:alright! 7 packets of Hotdogs!
all:*waves arms frantically*
Amos:*acts blur like he doesnt understand*
sigh...so funny.We all wanted to slap him.i think belicia hit him with her water bottle.
i could write a million words oabout the camp,but i think all the pictures are on facebook so you can have a look haha.
friday we went to school.initially we wanted to finish filming the dance but gladys khoo wasnt there so what we did was that carmen and i learnt the dance from the vids that gladys sent us then we spent the rest of the day recording.
i can tell you that garageband is not a good recorder.
it always makes evryone sound whiny when we sing.
no matter how nicely we sing.
sigh...good talent-bad software.
and don't say a bad carpenter always blames his tools.
and i'm having sorethroat now cos i sang too much on friday and i screamed and cheered too much in camp.
and summore on sat-sun i bunked off to malaysia to visit my great grandmother so there was a lot of foooooooood there.
needless to say i ate a lot of youtiao.
but waddayou know after eating youtiao my sorethroat got better.
not saying this works for everyone but...
haha.
sigh...
back to school again.
kara and i got so hi over nothing today.
telling each other about our holidays.
she laughed till she hit the table when i told her about the amos hotdog thing during english oral practice.
mrs soo gave her THE EYEBROW
anyways,
i do want more holidays.
today during chinese test i was falling asleep...
then i suddenly realised i didnt care about school anymore.i didnt care about results.
i wanted to die and go to heaven.
what a nice eternal perspective,but it doesnt really help to make your studies better haha.
i need to switch back to school mode.fast.before EOYs....
xoxo,

Dear Oppa
Thursday, 10 June 2010
You always say you're hurt
Deep down inside it’s a struggle
I try to call you to join me
Under my umbrella
You’re too sunny there, you say,
Listen to the rain
I don't know what you've been through
But life's cruel to me too
I’m not all that sunny and bright
But I try to be happy
You tell me to try too much, you say,
Listen to the rain.
You feel never loved, maybe.
In your heart there's certain longing.
I’m not a perfect angel from above.
But I’m going to give all the love I’ve got.
People lie about love, you say,
Listen to the rain.
But why does it rain, oppa?
Why does it fall on everyone everywhere?
Oppa it doesn't rain because the clouds are crying.
It doesn't rain because the clouds are urinating.
It rains, so that
You can realize whose
Holding the umbrella and calling your name.

DBSK the break up
Wednesday, 9 June 2010
I've heard dbsk is breaking up. that was a long time ago.
I really do feel sad.
this band of brothers has travelled so many places together,played so many pranks on each other,but then?
Was it because SM entertainment gave them this insanely long contract?
hmm...13 years...
if you sign it when you're 17[relatively young...]
then by the time you're free to make your own music and do the more important stuff in life,
you're 30.
dude,30 is old.
people get married at 30.
but yet at this age,they've probably never had time to settle down and have a serious relationship.
so theyre going to be like,40 when they actually do marry.
and if you go solo when you're 30...
chances are you're not going to make it very far, are you?
The spotlight is a cruel thing.
It shines on you a while,then goes on to someone else when you're not so young and don't glitter anymore.
But then in this case it might not be such a bad thing to break up.
If you start your solo career now,[the dbsk members are all in their mid twenties i think]
then you have time to gather support from the world while you are still young,and hopefully their support will stay till you're old and er... wrinkled.

posting.
today i feel happy.
mum bought me new shoes.
they've got heels...
somewhat
and they make me feel tallerrrrrr
(:
and today she gave me a new phone.
cos my birthday's coming.
shhhhhhh....
don't tell anyone.
i want to see how many people actually remembered.
yesterday we had this cell steamboat.
it was so fun!
first we shopped for food.
and we didnt know what could be steamboated...
so we just bought like,eighty something dollars worth of stuff.
our cell won a 50 dollar voucher from church so..
its not that bad,really..
you know,we bought this packet of baby octopus.
it looked really cute and yummy so we bought it.
but nobody wanted to eat it afterwards so...
i had to bring it home.
along with some scallop...
the scallop was really nice.
mum said she'll marinate and cook the baby octopus for me so its better.
the ones i ate yesterday had no sauce and was bland.
no wonder no one ate it.
they just pointed to it and went-so cute!
but didnt eat it.
hmmm....
yup.now i'm uploading a video for baorong cos its too big to send in a mail.
so i hope she goes my blog to see it.
she has to write a script for it in CHINESE.
and we both have to record it into the video.
eeeeeeeyurghhhhhhh
so scary.my chinese sucks,btw,so my teacher,in choosing me for this,probably made a big mistake.
oh well.
at least baorong's chinese is fairly good.
hey she's in hcl ok.
and if hcl stands for higher chinese...
mine would be lower chinese.which means,probably,lower standard chinese.
or low class.haha.but i do like listening to chinese songs too.
as much as i like listening to j-pop and k-pop.
i dunno.i'm very asian.i don't really like american and english pop.i have no idea why.maybe because...i'm asian my self so its the asian appeal i guess?
Joni the great has a song to reccomend!
look downnnnnnnn:)
i like this song much much.but its sad.
i know like half the world has already heard it but if you havent...
