We Are Not In Control

Sometimes we want things to work out in a specific way. But we forget to remember that we are never in control of anything in this world. God is always in control... When we learn to let go, that's when we will realise things are working out the way it should.

Newspaper Ad

I wasn't able to post about the Newspaper Ad incident that happened to me to Tuesday, 18 May 2010. My math teacher informed my class that the drama class from our class was in the newspaper (Beech Metro). It was so awesome as I'm so new to this country and yet, I already have a picture of me in the newspaper!!! Isn't that so cool?!

Anyway, for some reason my pelvis hurts! I hate it!

Happy Birthday Ate Bim! and haaaaaay...

Today (well actually just now), was my sister's birthday. We did a really simple celebration at home... but its the thought that counts right? I'm doing so much work in school today. I feel really loaded and I don't know where I could begin. I hope I could find a strategy or somehow I could do things faster...

You know... I'm not really in a good mood right now... I don't want make things too specific...

My message for those people out there today is... Don't let anyone put you down just because you are different. Everyone is different. Unique in their own ways and that's what made you special from everyone else. Do not get affected if the world out there is criticizes you on how you look. It is said in Proverbs 31:30 - "Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised." beauty has a whole different meaning in the eyes of GOD. Have a beautiful heart and your heart will reflect the beauty within you out. Do not please the judge-full eyes of this world. Let GOD alone be the judge of you. If you don't love yourself, how do you expect others to love you?... Always remember that when you feel down, you can always count on Jesus... He cares for you...

It's Been A Long Time

Its been a while since I posted something. I had problems with connections remember? Well, good thing we have internet now. A lot of things happened to me in just the past week. I can't remember a day where I didn't got into an accident or hurt myself. I don't know why I'm so clumsy... Maybe its a reflex action? The sign of me missing you?... Well I came up with this idea to put up the things that happened to me this past week. In that case, nothing will be left out.

Today is the official day we moved here in our new apartment. Its a bit messy, but I'm glad that at least now, we have a place to live in. When I know I have so man things to catch up on here. I don't even know where to start. I really miss Singapore. My friends. My best friend specially.

It is multicultural today at my school. Coincidently, it was also St. John's 100th anniversary - the elementary school beside us. It got so crazy at school and let me tell you, it wasn't any ordinary day. Trust me! We had first period, then we went to the gym for an assembly. It was a like a rehearsal for the concert that will be happening that night. Anyway, I was part of the drama class and so one of our activities or assignments? project? (whatever) was to come up with a skit and perform it for the multicultural concert. As far as I know, we will be graded according to our performances. I think I did okay... I mean I was in the minor roles so, I don't think there is a problem with that. I thinks that my classmates did a pretty good job. I had to admit, I was tempted the others perform while I was in "tablo". After that we went back to our home rooms for some pot lock lunch. I brought chocolate chip cookies. My other friends brought pasta, cassava cake, vegetable pasta, spring rolls, and many more. I didn't eat that much. I guess I didn't really had an appetite. So, school ended and I have to be back in school at 7pm for the night show. I had to wait for my sister as usual to go back home. So I waited... But I told her I might have a rehearsal. She went to main street library while I was stuck at school because the practice was cancelled by my drama teacher. So I had to wait for my sister for 2 hours. I was so mad because I thought she actually went home without me. She just actually went to the library.

When we got back home, I only got like 1 hour rest then I have to go back to school for my play. I didn't bring anything as my plan was to go back home quickly after my part. When we were on the way, we rode bus no. 12 and the bus driver didn't accept our transfers. He said that it was "not a valid transfer" even if I saw my other friends doing the same. I was really late and so i decided not to defend myself as I didn't want to be kicked out of the bus. Another agenda... The bus was so crowded as everyone in the bus are on their way to Notre Dame high School for the play. I thin that the bus driver was not having a good day so basically, he was being petty about every single thing that he see on the bus. He told people to move in the bus, but there was no space. A guy then shouted at him and he felt insulted, so he pressed the "insult button" that they guy was referring to *laugh*. In the end the guy who was "rude" to the petty bus driver had to apologize, before the bus could proceed. He did. I mean who wants to pay another $3 for a bus ride? Anyway so when my play ended, heavy rain started pouring down so hard. Thunder, lighting started rumbling one after another. I wanted to get back home so badly... Its really late at night and do not have a car or any sort of vehicle to transport as back home. Note to self - there are no more street cars so we had to walk in the rain not forgetting we don't have umbrellas and our jackets were cardigans! Imagine how cold that would be. Luckily, I saw Lilac my classmate from drama and she kindly dropped me and my sister at the main station. Thank God, there was Lilac and her dad. They were really nice.

So that's how my day went. It was really crazy, huh? Luckily, when we got home, we bought our mom a mother's day cake. After that, her panic subsided.

I went to a Child Christening. The baby's name is Pipoy and his mother loved eating McDonalds chicken nuggets when she was pregnant with him. Pipoy is a really cute boy. I mean he is adorable! We had to wear semi-formal for the event, but we didn't have any semi-formal clothes that could protect us from the extreme cold weather here in Canada. So we had to wear casual. On our way there by subway, it was really sunny, but when it came to taking bus and walking on our way to find the church, it started pouring... Again! That's why when we reached the place, we were drenched and tired from all the running. Anyway, so you know how cold it is in Canada right? Imagine how cold I felt. The worst part is, I didn't have any thick jackets with me because I thought it was going to be a sunny day just like the weather in the morning.

After the christening we had to go out of the church again to go for the reception at "Mandarin" - a buffet place. I was so full. Bloated! After I ate sushi, calamares, terriyaki chicken, salad, chocolate marshmallow, leche plan, fruit tart, etcetera, etcetera and so forth... We were given fortune cookies. After all, the place was called "Mandarin" very Chinese. I was so excited as I cracked my fortune out. My sister got " you'll be successful, if you concentrate on what you are doing", my brothers is "you will be rich and powerful", my dad has the funniest "Love is waiting..." That was really unexpected! Mine was "Your romance is true and everlasting..." oh, how I hope its true... I hope...

I ended up going home early because I've got a presentation due Monday and I have to finish the script. We still have to go to Niagara Falls the next day and if I stayed, I would have been dead from all the work I need to catch up on. So as I was flipping through pages of my work, I had this paper cut which was so excruciatingly painful! I get cuts from time and again. at least one in a day. I'm too careless and clumsy. My mind is like somewhere else these days...

Today is mother's day and we also went to Niagara Falls. I have school tomorrow, crap! Anyway, I had so much fun. I guess I don't really have to emphasise on how fun it was because it was really fun. Okay... I'm getting ridiculous! Anyway, an accident happened to me today. At dinner just now, while I was about to finish eating my food, I was cutting this pork rib which by the way was really good. My fork flew up for I don't know what reason, so without thinking of any sort of precaution, I catch the fork with my two hand HORIZONTALLY. The fork then went inside my hand. I mean literally went right through my palm. It bled so badly! It was really bad the I started crying because I thought that I poked my wrist. I wonder if the scar will be huge...

I'm really sleepy now so I guess I'll end here.

More things actually happened to me this past week, but I wasn't able to write them somewhere. But, as soon as I remember things that happened this week, I'll post it here...
