learn to give thanks

And another friend has set up a shopping blog... Looks like my friends are all learning the ropes of setting up a business online, which I dare not engage in. Maybe should just remain as customers of everyone and make them happy. When Phy was draining my brain juice yesterday, my fingers just clicked all over the blogosphere to look at the sprees - clothes, bags, contact lenses, accessories, slippers... You name it, I see it. Indeed very tempted to get the NEO lenses. The only drawback is that it's permanent. Given a choice, disposables are definitely more hygienic. Less protein remaining on the lenses and that certainly means less susceptible to contracting eye diseases. Sorry but I'm a hygiene freak. Have been known to use excessive pressure rubbing the lenses that I tore 4 out of 15 pairs. Still, it's not my fault...should be the fingernails, thickness of the lens, multi-purpose solution, blah blah =X After doing a self-eye check, it appears that my degrees have soared again. I just changed my pair of spectacles last year! GRRRRR. It's time to switch to contact lenses again, hoping that the left eye will stabilise or I'll stab myself (just joking). Of course, pray harder not to be so aggressive and excited while cleaning the lenses.

Oh hooray, for exams are coming to an end. I'm one of the lucky few who only have two papers left, since most people have at least three this coming week. Inasmuch I want to enjoy the weekends, there are still materials to study so it only means mild rest ((: Whatever has passed, has passed. No I will not dwell on those papers anymore even if it means having to "打包". Wish myself all the best when the results are coming out. There's a special and most honoured guest who will be preaching this weekend. Also, this will be the opportunity for me to soak in some Korean culture, especially singing in Korean and flashing the Korean lyrics! Super challenging! Kel has organised a team outing tomorrow and I haven't RSVP. If I can clear a certain number of topics for Tues paper, I will be able to go. Otherwise too bad, sigh.

Always remember to forget the troubles that passed away, but never forget to remember the blessings that come each day.

God never shortchange us. When I struggled like crazy with those papers and got really upset over how useless I was (plus the ultra-poor memory), He drops a hint and spurs me to move on to the next question. Somehow I began to write down the steps. Perhaps it was insight. Even though the answer was not obtained, at least the page wasn't blank. Relieved and blessed. ((:

Hopefully this doesn't describe me from next semester onwards. Unable to salvage the quizzes for this semester. Exam marks better pull me up.
