Timetables and Cell

Yesterday was great fun! It took the monotony out of my week.

Went to college in the morning to collect timetable. I woke up at 7.45am which is my earliest in the past week.

Was a whee bit lost when i got to college. Then one of the officers told me my room no. and the direction in which to walk. You see, we were spilt up according to our last names. I, obviously, was in the group with all the "L" people. So Wei Ni and I were in the same group. There were aussies there and other asians there as well.

But my oh my! Where they really really tall! These two aussies were like REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY tall! Like WAY WAY WAY past 6 ft. It was really intimidating! I wasn't the shortest in my group. but still! When one of them held the door for us, I felt like a total midget when I walked past the door! But this guy had intense green eyes (Jam, u'll lurve them! haha. But too bad Jam, i'm afraid he doesnt have dark hair. his hair was kinda red. quite interesting though. haha).

So anyways, my timetable is actually pretty good! I end super duper uber early on wed! At a remarkable 12.35 pm! Whoohoo! I end sch at 3+pm on fri but end sch at bout 5 pm on the rest of the weekdays.

And i have a maths subject EVERYDAY...

BUT i HAVEN'T found a person who even shares ONE class with me!?!?! How pathetic is that? I've got friends who share my exact subject combination or 2 to 3 similar subjects, but yet i'm NOT in the same classes as them! Aiyo! So come mon will be an interesting day eh? We'll see, we'll see.

Come fri will also be a very interesting day. Coz apparently it's when the O levels results are announced! Thank God i'm not there to collect it myself. I almost fainted when they were gonna give out the results for O level express chinese last year. And it was only 1 subject. I'll totally freak out now coz it's 9 subjects! My parents have the honour of carrying that "burden" coz they are gonna collect my results on behalf of me! haha


After collecting our timetables and going for a short college tour (which the international students had already attended), i followed Wei Ni, Jane, Fedora and their roomies to Carousel (a shopping centre). May joined us later. So we spent the afternoon there.


Yesterday evening I went for one of Zion Praise Harvest's cell group gatherings. At first I was VERY apprehensive. Coz my closest friends were not going. I knew that some students from Canning College were going. But i didn't know who exactly were the ones going. But i did know that they'll probably be mere acquaintances. Like I know you, but i don't really KNOW you.

But thank God that Aileen and Grace encouraged me to go. So i FINALLY decided to go. I'm very glad i went!

There were bout maybe 25-30 of us? Mostly from students or graduates from Curtin university. Some, like me, are college students. We played games (including a complex version of scissors, paper, stone which involved lots of mad running and bumping into people. It really was quite a dangerous game! haha).

Then we had a time of worship. Even though it was just a simple time of worship, with just a guitar accompanying and it was quite short, but I still enjoyed it thoroughly! [Oh! How i miss worship and cell in my church back in S'pore!].

Since there were quite a no. of newbies, including yours truly, so we had a round of self introductions. We were suppose to tell all of them our names, where we are from, where and what we're studying now and our funniest ambitions. Some of those ambitions were really funny, some were innocently childish, some were just plain gross - superman, spiderman, tai tai, shao ye, Schumacher's daughter, Ariel (little mermaid) and even erm.... stripper! yikes! lol

Thereafter, someone shared the Word. Then we had some fellowship time over food.

So it was really quite good. And I'm definitely glad that I went in the end! It's great to know that I've got many sisters and brothers-in-Christ in college and in curtin university.

SO I CAN'T WAIT FOR CHURCH TOMORROW AND FOR COLLEGE TO START ON MON! and even for my O level results (though i'm kinda nervous bout it too)
