The POWER of a true friendship



Well, as I am gonna update my posts this coming days , here's something we must always remember... sometimes we can admit that we neglect them , so now lets bring the negligible to refreshed again !

Into a box of friendship
To insure that it is strong
First a layer of respect
On the bottom does belong
Then to the sides attach
In the corners where they meet
Several anchors full of trust
Devoid of all deceit
The height of friendship can be measured
By the sides of four
So make them all a larger cut
And the box will hold much more
Now fill it up with courtesy
Honor and esteem
Understanding, sympathy
And passion for a dream
Add to that your honesty
Emotions joy and love
And since they're so important
Place them up above
But leave the box wide open
So all can see inside
To learn what makes a friendship work
From the box you built with pride


Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.”

What a friend really means to me - sharing of love




HELLO ! ☺

Haha… well today is my first blog entry !! Haha … I am indeed very happy to do this ! Personally I really think that setting up a blog of our very own is something that we should be very proud of .. !! letting others know what happens throughout our day is so good !! its also let others better understand us yeah ??

Well , ahh… today was great…. Sad as well… haiz.. my science tuition teacher , ms chan was her last day with us !! haha its just so sad !! she damm great… her teachings and sacrificed energy she spent on me .. when I had doubt in my studies, she would not hesitate to guide me through , sometimes even eating up her own time to relax !! surely , I know that God has a wonderful plan ahead of us.. so she would do definitely great when she’s gotta transferred… not sulk but look forward bahx !!

Hmmm ?? who’s Ms J.Sim ?? did I ever see her before ?? nah… I even had no idea on how she look ! agrrh !!

Well, I’ll pray to God that He would be able to guide me through my Sec 2 thick and thin !! Jia You , people !

Ms Chan you’re great , thanks great & I’ll remember you forever ! ☺

After tuition , Bernard and I went to have lunch … yummy !! Bernard I can really evidently see that you’re a chicken rice fanatic lover !! Why not open a stall in future ?? haha… the chicken-rice-bernard…. We spent our time talking about certain church stuff.....

After which we went to National Library ( pretty near Bugis Junction).. but on the journey once we exited bugis station it rained like downpoured !! haha.. it somehow dampened our happy spirits… agrrh !! but still thank God that we were all safe and sound and that our laptops weren’t spoilt due to the rain..

We ran and ran and even used A4-size plain paper to cover our heads ?? creative huh … people use huge umbrellas but we two used small plain papers.. does it help ?? I think it didn’t.. haha !! The paper tears even once we started 10 steps… haha so we just crumpled them and forgot about it..

The library was the largest , beautiful-lest & the coolest I have ever seen… so grand man…. And its so cool !! The environment and the architecture there was just fanastic.. !! Bernard thanks for bringing me there man !! Hey people , do drop by the National Library and you’ll know what I exactly mean !!

We spend there reading books of all kinds !! haha… the library was so well protected that there was even security checkpoints at the library of every library… waa so strict… so Bernard and I tried our luck to enter.. but was stopped and we had to “surrender” things that were not allowed like files and even assessment books !! what the @?*% !!! haha… but at the very end we still abided to it larhs…. Better to play safe rather than getting seriously caught… what Bernard said is true , if we can’t follow such simple strict rules , how can we face the even much stricter laws of Singapore ??

So we went around hunting for seats minutes after minutes… climbing stairs minutes after minutes… haha.. then I found one !! quickly chopped the seats and even more importantly electrical powerpoints… haha… we are the greedy people of computer power… if we don’t use , who will ?? haha..

After librarying , Bernard complained that he was terribly hungry and quickly went around finding for food outlets.. haha…. We passed by this Japanese restaurant ( sorry forgotten name) and Bernard was like “hey should I eat?? It is to expensive??”

Then out of a blue I thought Bernard was passing this restaurant called the “Ajisen Restaurant” to by-pass to some other places I perhaps.. then he suddenly sat down !!! I was pretty shocked about his sudden decision to eat… I thought “hey ber lets eat at macs larhs…its much cheaper you know”.. haha… I guess he knew I was hungry and my money I had was pretty low at that time.. so he willingly treated to me..

Haha… so we had a deal.. he chose one meal first.. then scissors,paper,stone . Who won will get the chance to select the next two dishes of his own… waa… if I won I will surely call the expensive one !! haha.. no larhs…

While waiting , we played some magic tricks.. but my tricks were too easy ot be realized !! he managed to see my tricks !! haha one time my trick even failed … haha!

We shared jokes like “ If you ask , you don’t get”. Make sense ?? but if we take an example of the restaurant.. “ if the waiters don’t ask for bill , we simply pretend and walk out”.. haha.. we really laughed to our hearts content !!

Then the bill tallied to $22.50.. yeah Bernard thanks for the treat ! Love you !!

Look at the image ! The elixir of love ! The love someone pours of you is simply irresistible !

So folks , this kind of friend like Bernard is simply TOO ENJOYABLE to be with… His kindness and a open hearts make me fall in love with him ! haha..

I really wanna thank God for giving me such indispensable friend !!

The powerful strength that’s always shadowing me



Yes ! Jesus is the light of the world and the salt of my path ! Jesus is the only person that died for me on the cross and washed away my sins !! I love you Jeus !

Hmmm…… I accepted christ ,that is being a Christian on August this year ! Who-hoo ! I wanna thank my buddy , Bernard for starting it up ! Bernard , you’re great…. Anyone under him will be appauled by how loving and compassionate he really is to each individual! Bernard has been always taking care of me … in every aspect… in studies , in sports , in tuition.. in my walk with God ! Thank you loads brother !

Haha who’s the powerful strength you wonder ?? haha that’s God ! God has been so loving.. as God is always our loving God ? People say Amen !

Before I became a Christian , I was really bad in my daily life…. Used to waste food , not determined nor optimistic about myself , you name it ! But after being brought into church by Bernard , I changed so so much that even I did not realize it !

I changed all my bad ways into good ways ! Not to waste food , to be more positive myself even more !! I really did not regret making the decision !

And I believe all these life transformations are all planned by God ! God always has wonderful plans for all of us ! And furthermore He never fails to do that !

When I think of God, the amazement He gives me are always awesome ! When I think of Him , my fears are taken away and confidence are brought in ! God always sees our heart ! If our hearts are pure , we will definitely see Him ! ( Matthew 5:8)

He always fills our hearts with love , understanding and compassion… and fills our mind with wisdom , confidence and He’s goodness !

For example , after since I was busily involved in church activities , my mum was kinda fussed up with my time I spend on all those activities… and she wanted me to prove to her that going to church and getting committed in it are well-spent after all…..

Then…

I worked hard and hard for my exams to prove to her that going to church is great ! I worked through with determination… knowing that with God’s help , I would be able to pass through with ease and not fears…. I worked hard… and one purpose was to glorify God through our studies !

I worked hard and minimize procrastination as much as possible.. even though well , yes I procrastinated..

My final-year-exams ( SA2) came and I really prayed to God every night and every minute for confidence and wisdom… and it really did ! For example , I really suck in my CL paper 1 and EL paper 1 ! I was really scared that my compo would go out of point.. and more worse , I lost ideas.. !!

But I believe God heard my prayer and sees my heart for Him , so He really gave me what I wanted … We only seek if we ask ! I did the papers with loads of confidence… and the result - I attained 4th highest in my class for CL Paper 1.. the one I sucked in became the one I improved in most ! Even though a prayer can be easy and short , but the blessings and impacts can be really huge!

So during my whole exam period , I prayed and prayed… not only I prayed , hard work must be incorporated as well !

And you know what?

I got 8th in class for my overall this year ! God has saved me in my studies and my fears ! I was really happy that finally my sweat in all these hard paid off handsomely !!

There are many many problems we will always face in life , but through prayer , we will be blessed ! People say Amen !

Lets seek God in all aspects of our life and ask Him to be our powerful strength standing behind us always ! Fears can be taken away only if we asked to be taken out of us !

“ Do not be worry about anything , but in everything , by prayer and petition , with thanksgiving , present your requests to God , and the peace of God , which transcends all understanding , will guard your hearts and your minds in Jesus Christ” - Phil 4:6-7

Yay ! Its holidays again !



Well basically during this holidays , it so so long !! haha… I was definitely very happy for this time to come…. At least approximately 2 weeks earlier than primary school…. Hmmm what am I gonna do ?? it pretty hard to plan… but perhaps let nature takes it course… when the time comes , the task to be done will come naturally…

Perhaps I’m planning to do some sports ?? some sec 2 pre orientation work.. haha actually when I glanced through some books of sec 2 I found out that sec 2 can be quite of a drastic change as compared to sec 1. Take it for example for science , sec 1 there’s many formulae .. ( Like mass = density X volume ) etc you name it ! Lots of formulae… that’s somehow making sec 1 learning easy without having the fear of memorizing tons of concepts… for friends who are going be sec 2 next year , jia you jia you ! Although it can be hard at times , but keep on striving hard ! And the greatest satisfaction is when we get the results we really desire for !

Getting back to point , during this holidays I’m gonna get bored… !! honestly I really love school ! The people , the work , the teachers ! Haha and the environment !! Sorry for people who hate school ! haha

In a nutshell , readers please really make good use of your holidays !! its can be really be boring at times , being faced with “ the four walls at home like a prison” - boring rights ? but I really wanna tell you is that fear not !

PLAY OUT TO THE VERY BEST , BUT ALSO MAKE GOOD USE OF IT !

Enjoy your break and have fun !!

The new chapter of the new Eugene !



Hey people ! Haha firstly I wanna invite you to this blog ! My very own… Actually this blog plan was initiated by my good church buddy , he’s name called Bernard….. shall tell you who’s he all about in further blog entries… he’s really a good friend of mine…. If u gotta a love-making-friend character , hey do really make friend with him alright !

Actually this blog plan did not come into my mind in the previous years… Busy with studies , busy with church activities…. Haiz nevermind lahs… its time for HOLIDAYS !! Lets all relax to the max… as when the time to play comes , lets play all out !! But… on the “darker side” , we also gotta put some time in our studies too !! Never neglect them !

Why call it “ Each day pictures an infinity” - because each day has so much hidden wonders ! Its true… like being helpful to others are great works !! Each day really contains a lot of things to utilize ! So , we must make great use of our time in every aspect !

Hmmm…..its holidays time !! Yay! Haha… so I really wanna use this time… to do my blogging ! Somehow I think it improves our writing capabilities in all aspects ! Haha… if you’re kinda surprised with my new blog , or even wonder why on earth I begin this , don’t think further ! Haha….. “ if you can’t beat them , join them..!” does it make sense ?? haha… think about it folks … !

So…. The beginning of the new Eugene is so called a new chapter again ! Its time to express my daily feelings and pen down my daily happening ! To know a better me , do read my entries !

Thanks loads for your support !

For those who are readers of blog and who have yet created one , I really wanna affirm you to consider taking the initiative to create a blog of your very own !! Give it a try ! Yeah! ☺
