", the Oh Mighty King&me."whaddaya know...
God DID make me feel better. although not directly.
i wandered back to my room after blogging ytd and caught sight of this book on my shelf.
The Purpose Driven Life.
Somehow i decided to pick it up and read it.
Apparently it had 40 chapters due to biblical reasons, so im meant to do one chapter a day.
i figured this'll do for my daily QT for now.
so i finished chap1 ytd.
and it was fantastic.
it reminded me who i'm living for and i must say, the idea of discovering God's purpose for me is thrilling.
so anyway, i was distracted from school for a while, but today reality kicked in again.
but reality was so much nicer today(:
met this germany girl called morija (hmm wait..that looks strange...must've got it wrong).
she was early at media studies with me so we were both chased out by the tchr and told to return only at 9.
i talked to her and realise she didnt go for form mtg. she went straight to media studies classroom.
she didnt know she had to be in her form class for roll call and announcements.
so she probably missed out on alot, not to mention she would've been marked "absent" already.
so we went to north division DP to find out where is the south division DP (she's from south div, kindda like our hse colours in singapore), so then we made our way there and explained the situation to her.
she was nice.
then we returned to media studies class, which was just starting.
hahh morija is new in christchurch too. arrived just a wk ago.
and she's so confused abt the school!
in addition to missing form class even though she was in school, she doesnt know when is interval break, and she got her lunch time all wrong.
she doesnt know her locker yet since they announced it during form mtg this morning.
so i offered to share locker with her until she find out what's her locker number.
BUT i couldnt find her during break AND lunch time...so i think she was wandering around for quite some time on her own >.<
i dont think she has too many friends.
must find her asap..probably have to wait till next media studies class...
aww mann...i hope she didnt feel too sucky today...
but anyway, spoke to the 2 singaporean girls in my media class.
ester and chrys (her shortened name coz i cant rmb her actual name. i only caught the first part).
they were nice too.
so im quite happy today.
plus i sorted out all my courses.
Now: 12Math, 12Eng, 12Classics, 12Media and 12Design. ("12" is the yr level).
which are all plenty of fun and challenge. except for maths. have to find some time to speak to the HOD abt changing to 13Math.
yayy LOVE SCHOOL(:
hmm...im seriously considering reconstructing my blog such that there are 2 sections, one for daily updates, one for more cheem and reflective entries which are not so frequent.
Also, i want a section where i can upload a few pages of my writing so you guys can give me some feedback if you ever have time to read.
gahh. seems like i need a proper website now.
maybe we'll cover that in Design.
