just a quick update about the mid years now. had english paper on wed. congrats goes to me and lois for spotting for speech to come out. wrote an argumentative essay on modern technology and its benefits and harms. hope i can really score for these both sections cos i totally screwed my compre! argh. cheryl just enlightened me that voracious means big appetite. like how would i know? i wrote intimidating. JUST SHOOT ME NOW! so basically i really screwed my compre and i shall hope for the best. anwyay, had my chinese paper 1 yesterday and amazing things happened to me which can only be by God's grace.
i've been taught ever since i was young to always pray before doing any exams to ask for God's wisdom and stuff. i never truly understood the significance of it but i still prayed all the same. i always prayed the same few lines, "God grant me an abundance of wisdom and grant me favor with the paper and time management. grant me understanding and let me be able to perform to my best ability. sit beside me and guide me through my paper". i always prayed the same old stuff. but that day before my english compo paper i had about 10 mins to spare so i began to pray. and for the first time, i said different stuff. stuff that were definitely not from me. it just came out from my mouth. i asked God to grant me a good command of english and that he'll grant me loads of vocab. i didn't bother about these lines until i started doing my compo. for some weird reason, many different kinds of words came into my mind as i wrote my compo. words that fitted perfectly into my compo, and these are words that i don't even use. and i knew it was definitely from God. i just knew it. the same thing happened for my chinese compo. i was quite sad before my compo that i always lose marks cos i don't have a good chinese vocab and i use very little idioms. but God gave me so many during the exam. words that i never used before in my compo. is that cool or what? so believe me guys, prayer is always important. even if it seems so impossible and time is running out. just PRAY!
anyway, qian was shocked when she realised that i didn't know that we weren't supposed to take chinese paper 2 yesterday. i shocked myself pretty much too. amanda amanda amanda...
ss was horrible cos there were like millions of sources to read and write about and they were so confusing and i spent so much time thinking till i went crazy and my answers are like most likely wrong. GOSH! but the exams this time has really taught me alot of stuff. taught me how i should start studying VERY EARLY and that i shouldn't bother thinking and talking about the paper after it's done, which includes asking for the answers from other people. it'll just affect my mood more. i just let everything go. and how do i comfort myself? by telling myself that i don't mind failing. gives me some mental preparation to a certain extent.
I WANT TO BE A GIRL OF GREAT INTEGRITY!
