A long week

This week has been one of the longest, but not worst weeks I've had since coming back....

OH MAN!!!!! went 3 nights straight sleeping at 3am and waking up at 8am...having to get assignments done and trying to get the best out of it. Laying on my bed, eyes closed and repeating the Lord's prayer over and over again....I was just so tired I couldn't think of what to pray to God, but I knew I had to thank Him for something that I just kept repeating the Lord's prayer over and over and praying any verse about thinksgiving that comes into my mind. Man...I really need some rest, thankfully I had the rest during the week and at least I have energy to be typing my blogs for now....

Uni life here is getting really crazy, assignment after assignment, presentation after presentation, if you guys back in Singapore think its easy, well, you haven't seem nothing yet, come here and give it a try I DARE YOU!!!

After every presentation its..."Ok so whats the next stage in the project development process?" and when you've finished 1 projects, you chekc the newsgroups you find that your lecturer has just uploaded another one for you to do. This is never ending how are we going to keep up wtih this.
But by the grace of God, I'll be able to find peace and rest during this busy time, not to fallback and loose my focus, but to be able to choose what is better. There will be assignments to do everyday, course materials to read, but to sit down even for even a minute of silence and listen to what God has to say to you....truely turely I consider this undeserving of us.

So other than having loads of assignments to do, what else did I do other than eat, sleep, shit, do assigments....I talked a lot to the people around me, house mates young and old....spent some time to just listen to what they have to say, talk to them and know what their facing right now, after all it isn't much different from what I was facing last year...sounds like I turning into a 24x7 student mentor....damn....

Yesterday was a blast....too much food to eat.... went out with Judy and Tiff to sunny bank(the "other" asian community) was great fun, talking to these 2 fabulous girls(fabulous in their own way...that is) yah it was great to see familiar faces again. Tiff being so much like me, just the female version of me, and Judy the first OCFer I know in Australia. We talk a lot ...well, crap/rubbish... during lunch, just having fun for the day, riding in Judy's car...dammit am I like the only guy here who can't drive...$%&^%$@$, buying pizza for OCF, we had pizza by the lake, something different for a change.

OCF was great, did some studies which I really enjoyed, not just teaching, but doing them as well, most verses came from psalms, so I had to constantly refer back to 1 and 2 samuel to find out psalmist's state of mind while writing those psalms, discovering new thing, adding to my write outs(Yes, for all those who do knot know, I've been writing out biblical topics with focus on certain verses, no soft copy, their all hand written). I'm really starting to enjoy this, researching on theology stuff and find out things...scary.....hehehehe ;P
