Habibah. The biggest blessing that I could ever get out of a school junior:)
TODAY THIS SHALL BE A HIGH POST.
(And it's not because my "emo" posts aren't in anymore)
This morning was .. awkward.
We had PE and I didn't bring my shorts - -" I DON'T KNOW WHY OKAY.
So anyway we were made to run an entire road of trees and cars and lots of wind.
First time we took our own sweet time, so the second time I had hell.
I led the entire class. I was either too fast or the guys had problems with me tucking out my shirt.
I wanted to scream CAN'T I JUST TUCK IT IN LATER!?
So they made me stop and stop. I can't run slowly for too long, because I suck at pacing myself and I'll stop running eventually.
Suddenly I had this sudden gush of adrenaline and I yelled JESUSSSS! and bolted past the classmates who overtook me - ONLY TO EFFING STOP AGAIN BECAUSE I WAS TOO FAST SO I HAD STEECH.
Retarded.
I was almost vomitting, so I let everyone run past me in the end.
Nicole, Justin Koh and Justin Chew were at the back running with me, cheering me on all the way.
That was so much to be thankful for.
I said millions of Sorrys though but Justin Koh kept saying It's Okay.
And Nicole was holding my arm and asking Ling you okay!
And Justin Chew was like HURRY LI LING! CMON CMON! JESUS JESUS!
I was laughing in my heart. And feeling so warm inside.
Even if I was the last one to reach the spot, I knew Jesus was proud of me.
He knows that I ran for him.
But I had to stop, because I was going too fast for the class.
I could've gone all the way though, and to leave them behind and let them catch up by themselves.
But I remembered what Christ said: Kneel, so others may stand.
And right now, I'm not the one at the losing end.
I'm victorious in Him too - because I finished the 'race', not for the goal but for the journey; for Him.
After school.
HABIBAH. I LOVE OUR CAMWHORE PICTURES.
BECAUSE WE BOTH LOOK G.L.A.M.O.R.O.U.S IN 'EM!
Even if my shirt looks screwed! HAHAH.
CNY rehearsal made us all so tired ):
So we walked to the bus stop, and I MET NICOLEEEE!!!
It's seriously the best to see Nicole when you're tired.
Because she's always there for us to hold onto.
Flung around my arms around that momma!
So we waited for 145 and talked with Shaun, Michelle and Cheong Leong.
Cheong Leong did the craziest thing he could ever do to Michelle's phone okay.
YOU ARE SUCH A NUT.
Anywaaaaay, the bus took so long to come... and everyone finally reached Tiong.
Got green tea + apple bubble tea, Old Chang Kee and took the train home with Nicole.
Heart to heart talkin'.
Nicole's got an amazing heart for God.
So there we were, talking about how we shouldn't say vulgarities, how we can hear God, how we should grow stronger in our Christian faith.
She got off the bus first, then I did.
Walked a few steps from the bus stop on the route towards home..
And stopped.
It was me and my Ipod and God.
And I sang out to Him the song Still by Hillsong.
I sang it, on the pavement, still as I could be with hands raised up high.
I just had the sudden urge to do it.
I didn't care if cars that rumbled by were looking out at this crazy woman singing.
I DON'T CARE COS I'M CRAZY FOR GOD.
I'M ON FIRE TONIGHT AND THE WORLD WON'T STOP ME FROM LIVING IN HIS WAYS & PROMISES FOREVAAA.
I'M A JESUS FREAK.
Call me Obsessed, whatever - it's for Christ and it's the best condition I wanna be in.
Obsessed with You, Lord.
Just to hear Your still small voice and to see You work wonders in my life.
So that the world may know You live.
So that the world may live.
