A Song

Amazing Grace (How sweet the sound)
That sav'd a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev'd;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ'd!

Thro' many dangers, toils and snare,
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall profess, within the vail,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call'd me here below,
Will be for ever mine.

Hello, my name is Rachel

Just something I found out from Blogthings.com

What "Rachel" means

R- Rich
A- Altruistic
C- Colourful
H- Honest
E- Emotional
L- Luscious

Hah. Rich?
I wish.

To Brandy

To Brandy, Mel's beloved dog:

To whom died such a tragic death.
I offer my heart and soul to you.

I swear too, if I find out who did this to you, I will team up with PeiShe and personally murder this murderer.

Dogs are living creatures too.
Sure, they're not all that intelligent as we are, but they're men's best friend.
And NO ONE should EVER be allowed to MISTREAT a dog.
EVER.
Nor any other kind of living creatures, like SHARKS.

I also offer my heart to Winter, my beloved late rabbit, and Patches, whom I reluctantly but was forced to part with him.
I <3 you.

40 x 30 = 1200, not 120

Can you BELIEVE that they canceled the trip to The Star newspaper factory and DIDN'T tell anyone about it?! (or it could be just me who missed the announcements, but I don't think so)

So, instead, Pei and I took Rapid KL down to Mid Valley where we bought tickets for the movie Get Smart (because we couldn't make it for Made of Honor and Pei didn't want to watch Amazing Grace). It's real hilarious, so go get yourself a ticket and stuff yourself with popcorn and go watch it.

But SeckWei doubts about it:

--!~Seck Wei~!-- (---) says:
oh
--!~Seck Wei~!-- (---) says:
is it worth watching?
Rachel says:
DEFINITELY
--!~Seck Wei~!-- (---) says:
ok good
--!~Seck Wei~!-- (---) says:
hahah


Right, I won't waste space here telling you about how you SHOULD watch the movie and how good it is because there's just no point in doing so.

Wow, my sis and her friend is sleeping over next door and I can hear every, single word they're saying. And laughing.
This is going to be a long night.

By the way, look what I bought!
A lovely, golden pencil box.
Well, its not exactly golden and you can't see it clearly from this picture, but let me tell you that it is nice, gorgeous, and the wrinkles are patterns!


My mom made my promise not to waste any more money buying pencil boxes and that I would use this one until Form 5 but I promised her I will use this until grow up, or die.
That could work. I think. =)

Fat. White. Black. Bear.

Can you believe that PeiShe went off to study and left me alone online?
And exams just ended 2 days ago.
And she's off to study for the PMR trials.

A class students are really study freaks.
And I'm being influenced by a few of them. =)

I've decided to start studying next week, as I have quite some stuff to do this week.
Such as, reading PS I Love You, watching Amazing Grace, designing the kindergarten poster for my godmother (don't ask, long story) and, er, more.
Yeah.
I have LOADS more to do.
Um-hmm.

Oh, and people, GO WATCH KUNG FU PANDA.
It's ridiculously funny.
The Monkey doesn't talk much though. Poor Jackie Chan.

Road Signs

This is an example of what school exams turn us into: crazy.
Plain crazy.

Studying too hard can lead to good results, but it can also conclude to dire consequences.
Yes, DIRE people, weren't you reading?!

If you don't believe me, I have pure proof of what too-serious-a-study can do to you.


Here is a clear example taken from PEISHE's blog.
Freaky.

6 days gone, 1 left to endure

Finally. (I found out that I like to start posts with "finally"s. Weird, huh?)
The tough part of my school mid-terms are gone.

Gone.
With the wind! =)

Tomorrow is the last day of exam, and I'm actually looking forward to it.
Not looking forward to the end of the exams, but looking forward to the Art exam.
I'm fully prepared for Art practical, where we have to draw a picture based on the title chosen.

And I chose a fishing boy.
Yes, well, I wanted to choose the scene at the railway station, but then my Art teacher said it's impossible to finish it in 2 hours time.
So now, I'm going for fishing.
Yes, dead, boring fishing.

It's better than drawing raw vegetables (sorry, Pei) or big unusual flowers in a mystical garden.
I mean, I wouldn't want to spend 2 hours doodling over the colour of my petite BIG flowers.
Come on, they're FLOWERS.

Forgive me. I'm crapping. It's the exams that turned us into this. Ask Pei. She wrote an experiment based on HERSELF.

Of reasons, China and this new job

Oooh, I just found out about this new job from Mom.
Okay.

This New Job:

1. Teaching people Chinese
2. Studying in China for 3 years
3. Studying in Malaysia for 1 year (yeah, I'm not really into that)
4. You need to speak fluent English to communicate with the people overseas.

What is in it for you/me/us:

1. There's a JOB GUARANTEE.
2. You get to go to ANYWHERE in the world to teach people.
3. People will probably pay you a LOT to learn Chinese. (Hello? China's market is growing??)
4. You might get rich! =)
5. You're spending 4 years in College + University instead of 5 years of College + University.
6. You get to save one year!

Why I should take up this job after Form 5:

1. All of the reasons above.
2. I will enjoy teaching (it runs in the family)

The bad thing:

NONE of my friends would probably be interested in this. Looks like I'm on my own. =/

OH, MY GOD

Oh, FINALLY.
It took me 3 weeks of suffering before Tsubasa's latest chapter was published.

Now, ON TO READING! =)
