i'm still alive!

Hi all, to those concerned, I'm still alive and breathing. Dear and I have went through 4 papers so far, and the last one will be on saturday. Can't wait. We've got a whole load of plans installed ahead for our upcoming holidays. yayyy.

I've been resting for almost half a day now, desperately need a breather before i start mugging for my organic chemistry on saturday. And it's all pure memory and application. A whole load of reactions. So, anyway, I'm here just to kill some boredom cos i've been having difficulties trying to get to bed. No idea why, i think i'm suffering from insomnia (spelt like this?) and under a headache spell for a while now.

The last 2 posts were blogged by dear which kinda take me by surprise cos it's his first time putting up photos! Just yesterday, i called him to check how he's doing cos we were about to sit for another exam at 5pm. So at around 2 plus, i was having a panick attack cos i simply couldn't do the past year exam papers and when i tried to redo my tutorial questions, i kept getting stuck! Heh, so i ringed my boy to get some comfort and when i asked him what was he doing then, he said he was blogging. I was expecting him to be doing some revision cos the day before he rested the whole day and he hasn't really studied for his paper yesterday. Haha, but i knew he was not feeling well so i decided rest is more important. So anyhow, i went to read what he blogged and it really touched my heart.

Unlike so many of us, dear did not let himself get carried away with the exams. He trusted in God and knew getting sick at this period of time was His plan. Dear simply rested almost the entire exams, without feeling fearful because in his heart, grades don't matter to him. He tried his best to study but God gave him a sabbath. Because of his trust and great faith, God was good to him. Yesterday, dear had the best engineering paper he ever done in his whole NUS life. Imagine being able to finish the paper early and checked through twice while everyone else was still rushing, and some didn't even manage to finish. Somehow, through God's intervention and his complete faith, dear had wisdom from God and everything turned out well. See, even in times of exams, we have testimonies to share! :)

The previous paper, things didn't turned out that well for him but what touched me most was, dear still gave thanks to God and didn't take things hard.

You see, God works in miraculous ways. All we have to do is obey and trust. Dear's testimonies really allowed me to see God's power and love. And i know dear is part of God's plan for me, because ever since i knew him, things in my life has changed for the better. Things within me...this exam is the first exam i felt more at peace, and able to take it easy. I also depended more on God this time! :) I had like friends coming up to me, asking if I would like to pray together before the paper! How sweet :) Anyway, things have gone quite smoothly for both of us so far. Probably not in terms of grades, but in terms of our walk with Him. Praise God.

Dear told me yesterday, "Isn't it wonderful that you blog before exams, while i blog during exams to encourage others? This way, we balance it out and everyone gets encouraged throughout the exam period!" Well, i sure hope that our blog readers do get encouraged despite my rantings! :)

I'm just really thankful for this God-loving man in my life. Truly, his love for God has touched me deeply.

On a side note, dear is also a man who's willing to be my insect-catcher! How grateful I am to know that he doesn't fear bugs. Or else, our home will turn topsy-turvy when bugs colonised us. haha. i can literally scream my heads off at the sight of bugs, which I have been the past few days. Somehow, beetles think they have an affinity with me. argh. plsssss stay out of reach from me.

oh wells, i love you dear! :) and keep going dear friends!
