today school was really interesting. as in, 4S had a really interesting time! :D our PE rocks man, though i was seriously dying. oh well. not the point for now :) maybe i'll update on it another day:)so why am i blogging on thursday? hahaa been trying to make it a point to blog as little as possible but yeah. if you dont know the latest big hooohaaaaah happening in singapore & you live in singapore, shame on you. even people studying overseas already know about it!
been reading alot of comments & hearing alot of comments from people online & in school, like on the articles posted up by straits times & whatever, & honestly i think now is super not the right time to criticize the army, police, whoever else is involved. whatever it is, HE ESCAPED. goodness, why do people keep dwelling on WHY did he escape? that one, later then think about it lah! hahahaha rahrahrah.
for me, i dont know exactly what to say. i search myself for the answer, i ask God for the answer. & He gently replies "Trust Me" it takes alot of courage, & seriously alot of courage for the human heart & mind to believe that & follow willingly. we're just like Thomas in Bible times, where we insist that we have to see it for ourselves, before we believe. seeing is believing? i would say having faith is believing. we say we trust God, but do we really do so? now thats something for everyone to ponder on. this verse keeps popping up into my head. thank God for small group! :D
in God i trust, what can man do to me?
so, after wondering for so long today, i guess we can only offer what we have up in prayer. as in, we really really do not know whats gna happen from this moment on, when they will finally catch him, if anything would happen before the gov catches him. its really a horrifying thought sometimes. like how we really take our peace & stability for granted, & now such a thing actually happens, what if.....? plenty of what ifs are probably running around in people's heads haha. to think that in ss we're learning about terrorism & in geog we're learning about tourism hahaha. how ultra relevant.
pray for Singapore, pray for the government. its really not the time to pinpoint. we're just wasting energy & time lifting that finger up & making accusations at one another. it also does not help at all to the situation. since we can't do anything about it but panick, think we're going to die & dial 999 if we ever think we see him, the only other thing we can do is prayer. it makes alot of difference, if everyone just prays. if you think that your school (barker, scgs, sji, cjc) is so near the place where he probably is, then how about living a good 20m or probably less next to the forest? if you think that staying on this island called Singapore & knowing there's a terrorist on the run somewhere is called scary, then how about knowing that he's probably not far from your own house? having police knocking on your door & asking if you've seen the guy around & if we do, call 999. really, the experience here is really alot more real & surreal than you can imagine. haha yah, i'm the toot living 20m or less next to that dumb forest i really never liked cus there's sure to be all sorts of funny living things living inside it :D like i'm literally next to it. i can walk out of my house now & then after 30sec walk right into it. hahaahah. you go to school just to study, how about coming home & sleeping? hahahaa, so we suddenly have like this free guard service thing from the SAF, Gurkhas, elite police force & whoever outside our house but that's not exactly a good thing...
hahah yah, now i'm just hoping that they hurry up catch him.. somemore my daddy's in USA now!
plus because of this whole thing, my presence at the small group meeting is at STAKEE!!!! :( ARRGGH i wanna go go go!
i have some awesome friends, i am so glad i'm aware of that & i love them loads hahaa :D
