:: house championships ::
today, like always, was just another day for me.. just that it is the last day of my term in sji.. after today i will bid sji farewell for the rest of my schooling life... having mixed feelings now... on one hand, cant bear to leave all the friends and the family that i have forged at sji.. but on the other hand, i cant wait to leave behind all the politics and all the enemies or the double faced people that encompass the school community... how ironic...
went to school today, still thinking of which jc that i should go... wishing that i can go to hwa chong but i know that it is just a dream... then brendan saw me and asked me to go and raise flags.. had a pact with him that on the last day, the GL and the AGL would raise the flags... and so we did.. it was kinda a wrong day to do it, considering the time in which we had to stand there due to the prize giving ceremony... but nonetheless, it was over and done with quickly and the flag raising went smoothly... that marked the end of my term as a prefect...
after that, at the hall, i was once again filled with the negative feelings of leaving the school. i really want to remain that way always... with my friends so pure and brother like... but then i know that all good things must come to and end... so after writing my wish on the star that i folded, we carried on the ceremony with the rest of the school. then came the part of giving out the house championships...
it was really a nerve wrecking experience for me... all that i held dear is now hanging on the balance.. before he announced the results, God put a song in my heart, it was one of the christmas carols and i knew that the results were going to be good... it has happened before... once before the chinese results were released, once before the prelim results were released... thus you must always be sensitive to God and acknowledge him always.. as expected, fintan got third and lawrence got first... it was really an exuberating moment for me... my first thoughts were to thank God for his provision according to his riches above... thus Glory to God in the highest...
in this event, i would like to thank many people who have made an impact on my secondary school life...
1) God in the highest for his provision in my everyday needs according to his riches above, and sending his angels to charge over me...
2)Mrs fong who had trusted in me and gave me the chance to prove myself
3)benjamin and 4)zhuomin who stood by me when i needed them the most..
5)jonathan and 6)amos for their prayer and support
7) all my house leaders who have worked so hard and supported me in all circumstances, even when things look bleak
8) mr greg and mrs lag for their guidence and support
9)nigel selv who really helped me the most
lastly, i must really thank this person who made the most impact in my life... he is smoked me to believe that he is a good friend, one who you can depend on and who is trustworthy... but when i found out otherwise, i was really hurt and angry... i still remember that he put me down in front of everyone on his blog.. it says "how come fintan house is winning the interhouse track and field championships? what is happening to lawrence house who used to be the champion?" when he jolly well know that i m the house captain of lawrence house. i was really hurt and disappointed at that time.
i told myself, i must wake up from this beautiful dream of having a close friend in gym and face reality. thus i began to strive at each and every interhouse game. i also prayed really hard and told all my worries to God. fortunately, God gave what is deserving to me. i thank God for that.
thank you, wang guan too, if you are reading this post. thank you for hurting me so much. thank you for all the back stabbing. thank you for sending me all the troublemakers like perry. you are the one who made me to come to the decision to strive for everything that i want. now i tell you, dun be too happy to early. cos the winner takes it all and the loser stands small. i guess you know who is the real loser now right?
i started this year, praying for success in two areas. prefectorial board and the lawrence house. although things looked bleak, jonathan and amos were there to remind me to turn to God in prayer. and in the end, i got the distinction award for prefectorial board. and lawrence house won the house championships. not without a hard long fight though. but God didnt promise us that life will be smooth sailing. he just promised that he will be with us each and every step of the way.
therefore, trust with the Lord with all your heart and he will make your paths straight. GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST!
