Hours after hours, day after day, classes after classes, tests after tests, exams after exams, assignments after assignments.

Now I've got four on hand:
- Marketing Essay (due: 8 Sept, Monday by 12 noon)
- Statistics Investigation Report (due: 17 Sept, Wednesday by 5pm)
- 2 Reading Responses for English (not sure when Arch wants it either)

Pressure for exam's starting to set in but I'm trying not to let that happen. Every paper's like three hours long. Dang.

Exam Schedule:
- FOUN040 (English) : 1400-1700 hours
- FOUN043 (World of Business ; Combined Paper - Mktg & Actg) 0900-1200 hours
- FOUN045 (Statistics : Data & Probability) : 1400-1700 hours

As much as most of us are hoping for a split of paper for World of Business (WB)... We're not sure what the decisions are after the shocking results produced for Econs & Mgmt during Mid-Sem.

Ohwells, I can't wait for exams to be over. Serious. Anyways, had a wee conference on MSN with my eldest aunt and my two cousins (Tiffy & Korkor Ben). Eldest Aunt was asking, if given a chance to go for a holiday in Auckland which will I choose. My 20th or Christmas. Then I was like, errrr... Not sure. 'Cos if I go up during Christmas, Tiffy won't be around. Korkor Ben and his gf MIGHT be away in Australia. Pardon the "might" in caps. Lol. That's what he put in the conversation last night. If I go on my 20th... Well, personally, birthdays now aren't significant and happening to me anymore, since I arrived here (meaning, Christchurch). So whether I celebrate it or not doesn't really matter a great deal either. So yea. I don't know what's the decision now but on second thoughts, if really given a chance, I'd prolly go up to the North during Christmas luhh. 'Cos Eldest Aunt and Uncle would probably be alone. Like I've said, Tiffy won't be around and Korkor Ben would prolly be spending time with his gf too. Ohwells, we'll see if Aunt asks again. If she does I'll tell her Christmas, it shall be!

I couldn't give a confirmed answer to Eldest Aunt 'cos Sri said he might be coming down to Chch for Christmas but he hasn't confirmed on his side too. Anyhoos, if Aunt really does ask again I'll tell her a big OKAY! and to Sri... Please come another time. Hahaha! I'm sure that bum wouldn't mind. Besides, he's being telling me that working during Christmas season over in Sydney, he'll earn more $$$. So yea, see! I'm helping him! Haha. Oh yeah, huh. Talking about Sri... He said he's going to Bali for a 3 week-hols! Its been more than 3 weeks now. Still haven't heard anything from him. Lol. I bet he's trying to avoid someone online luh *coughcoughs* . Tsk. So mean. Haaa.

Ahh well! Haven't been that well these few days either. Been reflecting on so many things. I'm sorry if my responses affected anyone around me but yea. Just trying to rationalise certain things properly. Its never easy being on our own, really. The feeling's like, you feel like an orphan in a foreign place but on the other hand you know that you're not, because God's with you every step that you're taking? Being in a situation like this makes things even worse when the people around you or rather the people that you mix with, sometimes do or say things that cuts or bring you down in front of others but they never seem to realise? I choose to keep quiet not because I allow to bullied or be taken advantage of, but rather, choose to be quiet and just commit everything to my Father in Heaven?

When I was young, I used to think that answering back every single thing people say was such a good thing because people can't bully you when you can stand up for yourself? But how silly can I be, I thought to myself. I finally realise the purpose of the tongue. Whatever things said, be it good or bad, the hearer will always be affected by it. The tongue is the worse weapon you'll ever have in this entire lifetime. Its so diffcult to tame especially when you're angry because things that you're not suppose to say just comes out and then causes regret in the latter of a relationship. Hence, a pretty good lesson after reflecting much, I should just stop talking so much and listen more to what others have to say. I mean why talk so much if it doesn't bring edification to the hearer? Well if it does then yea, there definitely is a necessity to speak. Not that joking around would never ever happen anymore but talk when there's a need to. After so long, I'm starting to feel that talking about things of this world makes me tired.

Nevertheless, I thank God for always standing with me. Whenever I fall, He picks me up. Whenever I fail, He lets me succeed. Whenever I'm weak, He makes me strong. Whenever I'm faced with a storm, He calms the seas. Whenever I'm anxious, He gives His peace that surpasses all understanding so that I may/will be at rest. He's probably is the bestest Father I could ever ask for and would never trade Him for anything. (:

Right, its been a pretty long one. Thank you for taking you time to read the lenghty update. Anyhoos, all the above was just my own thoughts and reflections and is only directed to me and not anyone else. So no heart-feelings to all my readers aye! ;)

Okay, guess its enough for today. Time to rest. Night earthlings. Or rather Morning. Its 2am! Hurhur. Laters! (:
