Anchor
Be my rock and my anchor O Lord,
though the storm may be fierce,
though the waters may be high,
Help me hold onto you,
that I may not drown
and I may not lose sight of you,
my amazing wonderful almighty God.
Always
Help me not to forget you Lord
Help me remember you’re always there
Watching, guiding and giving me care.

i’ve said this before in OCF small group, but i’m reallyy glad that i’m a Christian. cos God is just so amazing, like how i can screw up in my life and do stupid things and not trust him etc, but yet despite all that he still manages to work out such a perfect plan in my life so that when i look back i have nothing to say but WOW. Thank you Lord that you are just too wonderful...
new revelation about Romans 8:28-30
“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. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the first born among many brothers. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.”

ahh
oh man i just had a dream that my parents passed away! it was so vivid and real ):
but it made me realise how much i actually cherish them even though i get irritated easily and i’m quite rude at times.. and not to mention how i really felt so loved that both of them send smses to my UK phone every single day that i have an exam - made me think, no one else besides God gives me such...

swimmingggg
i can’t believe that the smell of pool chlorine is actually therapeutic for me now HAHAH. it used to be nightmarish. ohwell this is not absolutely random - i go to ULU every week for OCF and everytime i walk in (its the closest place with a decent pool) i smell and i feel sooo much better hahaha
ohwell. i think i figured out why i’ve been missing synchro soo much since i came here....
weekend!
oh man this weekend was rather busy! my goal was to finish my 1101 and 1201 homework which are due on monday and tuesday respectively, by friday so that i can relax totally during the weekend! BUT i didn’t manage to finish it by friday! but oh well, at least i finished struggling with all the 1101 questions by friday so it was only 1201 left which was tedious but relatively easy.
ok...
thoughts about thinking (aha)
wow, coming to london has made me think alot. alot about my life and everything.
i dunno i guess its just those times in my room, alone, without the noise or knowledge of the presence of other people in my home, it really lets me think alot. sigh. i wish i’d just get past this stage of not knowing many people and hence feeling rather lost and lonely at times, and just skip to the stage...
completely ranty and illogical post
i don’t know why but today i seem to be rather emo. like, thinking about stuff. (its a side of me i usually don’t tell people about, but yea) like it felt rather awkward during bible study at ocf today, maybe cos like i couldn’t really understand the passage and my inferences were usually not very accurate. and like i just felt like i need a best friend here. like someone i can...
oh man. i think it was a bad idea to stay up to finish my work (which is only due on tues). cos i woke up late for lesson! started at 9am but i only woke up at 10! then i thought ok la i’ll just miss the whole lecture then go for the next one. so i decided to sleep abit more, then 5 mins later i realised that i NEED to go for the lesson cos i need to hand in the homework that’s due...
first day of school
this was supposed to be posted up previously but it wasn’t! so anyway, i just ended my first week of school and its ok, but i’m so irritated that i can’t do my homework for MATH1101. inequalities which i hate and suck at! but MATH1201 is ok, matrices are nice… :D
haha so anyway, the first day of school was rather disastrous. it somehow didnt occur to me that class started...

rants & emo-ness (sorta rare from me, right)
sighh every time i see some synchro video i really feel like starting to train really hard for some big comp again :( no matter how sian i felt previously, i guess i can’t deny that the passion and love for it is still there :/
but then reality hits and i realise that (1) i am currently terribly unfit (2) i have no club at the moment (3) the new elements are jaw-droppingly difficult. what...
love the weather!
yea pretty self-explanatory. went for the boring talks in school today (living in london, banking and finance, focus on careers - i only went because i had nothing to do and decided to accompany my friends).
for lunch, we decided to be cheapo and go to Euston station which has cheaper food than russell square! haha had some chicken pasty thing, which was ok, not very great, but sort of filling....
backload
enrolled myself in ucl today. (my hair is weird on the photo!) but at least the woman asked me what name i wanted on the card and i told her jodie ng instead of my chinese name. haha some other guy got his chinese name on it unfortunately. then i saw my hallmates and they nicely brought me to register for the it services so i can get my ucl email and access the ucl internet in future. then we alll...
Random Facts about London
The McChicken tastes gross.
The McFlurry tastes good.
The Curry sauce tastes bad.
They have onion rings at Macs!
general feel
everything here is actually not bad. its so cool that its cold now so i can wear cool jackets and layer and etc :D:D
my only gripe is that its getting a little irritating with a lack of personal space cos im staying in the same room as my mum in my aunty’s house :/ but i’ll be moving into international hall on sunday!
too tired
I wanted to blog about my whole experience and feelings so far, but I think the jet lag/tiredness from the total lack of sleep (besides the time on the plane, last time i slept was for 3 hours on sat morn) is finally hitting me. So, this is when I KO. not bad. haha
Ok, hopefully I don’t forget what I want to write by tomorrow. Till then!
