uhm..sick again..oh well, hope i'll be okay by tmr to go for archery orietation and shopping plus dinner with the "gang" later..as in after archery..hehhs :)

anyways, i was being used as a manequin, or some of you call it "dummy"..we learnt "ROM"! not "registration of marriage", but "rotation of motion"..in another words, helping patients who have difficulties to move or exercise on their own, so that their muscles will not contract..back to me being the manequin..i was asked to lie down on the bed so that they'll do the "ROM" on me..that's all because i wore sandals which was easier to remove..hahha..many steps to remember man..but i think we did well..except that i could not stop laughing everytime they touched me..hahha..it was super ticklish..hehhs..i just LOVE lessons on clinical! :)

and..i was feeling a lil' sick after school, but god just manage to bring me to church..hahha..and pple at church just made me feel better without medication..hhaha..thanks to jas sia's massage..and queenie's prayer..and and..not forgeting, pple in teen cell...hahhaha :)

Avalon - Testify To Love

All the colors of the rainbow
All of voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences when words are not enough
With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the Hope in every heart will speak what love has done

"chorus"
"chorus"

*so so love this song..i've been listening to it eversince germaine sent it to me..THANKS GERMAINE! :)

You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to 'All things bright and beautiful'. This personifies a caring person, a person who 'needs' and indeed 'needs to be needed'.
You haven't been feeling that great lately. Both physically and mentally you are exhausted. To your best friends, those who know you and love you, it shows. Your self esteem has been reduced almost to a minimum and in order to recover - and recover you will - it is necessary that you get away from it all, even if it be only for a few days.
You are not an argumentative sort of person and 'rather than fight - you'd switch' (an old cigarette ad cliche). But when you try to assert yourself - as sometimes you may try to do - you meet with so much resistance and effrontery that manifests itself so obviously that you become hurt, indignant and resentful. So in order to have peace and quiet you tend to become inhibited. You keep it all to yourself but deep down, you 'feel' and 'hurt' a lot.
Stresses resulting from a recent disappointment have led to considerable trepidation. It would seem that there seems to be so much left undone. Everything surrounds you with that air of uncertainty. You badly need to feel a sense of security and whatever it takes to protect you against further disappointment. At this particular time you doubt that things could be any better in the future but you are sticking to your guns and refusing to take advice from any source.
Since in the recent past all of your hopes and aspirations have been denied you, you are now convinced that the future will hold nothing but anxiety so therefore 'why bother?' You would love to get away from it all, to escape from the trials and tribulations of this mundane existence and fall into a peaceful and harmonious relationship, which will protect you from the lack of appreciation and give you the chance to start afresh.


did this test from lionel yesterday..i'll rate it 95% true..cos it's not just a few sentences and they can say things mostly accurate about yourself.

you can visit this website to do it yourself! http://www.paulgoldin.com/colorgenics.htm

10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1

Now add up the total number of points.

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care."You're seen as vain, self- centered, and one who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over if that trust is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.

UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions & who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren't.

thank you tany for being a big brother when i needed it.
thank you miao for being there like a sister for me..listening to me crap always.
thank you KY for being a family.
thank you lord for all you've done in my life.

and i have finally learnt what it means by god forsees all, but not planning them..it feels so good! it was something i have never really understood, until yesterday. and also, i feel that god gives us free-will to make choices of our own, because he wants us to obey him out of love, and not because we "need" to or "have" to..like JESUS :)

*a really really precious lesson learnt!
