Where has the time gone??

Many says that after you pass a certain age which is sometime after 20, you can barely even remember how old you are because birthdays keep coming time after time and time flies pretty quickly too!!
I am still under 20 (only slightly) but i dont have to wait till i am over 20 to feel that time flies pretty quickly and birthdays come very quickly too...i dont know whether it means that im old on the inside but regardless of anything the more quickly time flies the quicker my heavenly father would come and pick me up :D:D

i have been repeating the idea that my heavenly father would oneday come and pick me up a lot of time in the past few months both in my head and also at bible study..thank you for my bible study girls for their patience and endless smile when i verbally convey the idea and also for continuously sharing the joy with me :D:D

This life is temporary and
This life is coming to an end
When this life comes to an end,
Do you know where you are heading?

Im done for the year

woot2...im done for the rest of the year :D:D
i can sleep in without having to worry or feeling guilty about studying...
i can sleep late and not worry about procrastinating too much...
i am ready for holidays and the plan i have for the next couple of months...


Exams is not something new anymore since i have been a student pretty much all my life and the feeling post exams is deffinitely not something new too!! But what is new this time around is that the peace i have post exams. Post exams is normally when i get freaked out and worry waiting for the results especially when i dont feel confident with my answers. What i tend to do is thinking about what i couldve done better or how i couldve study better.


My approach to exams this semester is surprisngly different in a good way. Let me explain. I came out of the exam room thinking whether or not i answered the questions properly and whether or not i just blabber about the topic and not answering the questons properly because if i did, i wouldnt get any marks no matter how much i write in the exams paper. But even though i was feeling uncertain about what i did in the exam, i was still be able to go home without worrying too much about my answer. I feel that my results are good in God hands and am clinging to his promise on romans 8:28 that says "and we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."


Things like failing is deffinitely not good in my eyes but this is when i need to put on my gospel glasses and start seeing things from God's eyes. In fact, i should put on my gospel glasses all the time and start seeing my life in God's eyes so then i would be able to live a life that is pleasing in his eyes not mine.



God, let your will be done not mine.

Studying is hard :(:(

Another year of my uni life is coming to an end. less than 2 more weeks till my last exam for the year then im done!! Cant wait till i finish and i have been waiting for that time to come because i havent been able to find myself being motivated to study or even understanding/getting the materials being taught at uni most of the time :(:( Hence i just wanna skip to the finish line (holidays) if possible so then i dont have to go through this "have to study" period, but i cant skip time!!
I even wish to have that remote control on the "Click" movie so then i can skip this time but then im glad that i dont have that remote control just because i know i would regret at the end of it..

As this week is the peak where i have to push myself to study even when i dont want to. I remember thinking that life would be great when Jesus comes back because i might not have to study and even if i have to study later on, im sure that i would do it with joy not like now with lots of guilty feeling because i am not using my time productively. As i long for that day to come (when Jesus will come back for the 2nd time) i will have to live my life in this world which means that i can never get away with guilty feeling or regret. This is when the idea of perseverance got to me.

My friend reminded me to keep focusing on the hope i have in Jesus that even though i have to go through many things in life at this moment (including trying to study hard at this stage). My friend also reminded me that there is going to be an end of all these things!! The day that i long even more than when i finish my exams in less than 2 weeks time. With the hope that i have in Jesus, i need to persevere a little bit more and be patience in waiting for that day to come.

Taking that idea of perseverance into studying for the moment:
  • There is going to be an end of all my exams this year  (in fact less than 2 weeks)
  • I need to keep study faithfully and persevere
  • Persevering knowing that in the end, i will receive the reward   :D:D
