For example, i got dumped in Hobart straight into year 12 from form 4 (that's like skipping form 5, form 6 and upper 6: a total of 3 years). Next thing I know, is that I'm only 17 and everyone else in all my classes is at least a year older than me and i'm expected to do as well as them in study (even though i basically skipped 3 years of malaysian education, srsly wtf?).

On top of that, I've got university next year and i applied to every single australian state listing medicine and law+actuarial science at the top of every application form, and the rate at which this is happening hit me so hard in the sense that i'm still not all that used to Australia and her people.

Furthermore, I really love art (L-O-V-E) and because of that, i still practice a few minutes a day and a few hours on weekends on top of my studies and badminton leaving me extremely thin on spare time which is mostly spent catching up on *much needed* lost sleep.

It is however good to know that there are small miracles in life that keep most of us going, like a kind gesture from a friend or a pat on the shoulder by your brother for it was these small miracles that have kept me going for these past 8 months. To all the guys who've said something kind to me, bought me a drink and what not, thank you.

sorry bout the rant, but this really helped me feel a lot better.

Who Am I Lyrics
Artist(Band):Casting Crowns


Who am I?
That the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt.
Who am I?
That the bright and morning star,
Would choose to light the way,
For my ever wandering heart.

Bridge:
Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.

Chorus:
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.
I am yours.

Who am I?
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again.
Who am I?
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rain,
And calm the storm in me.

Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.


I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.

Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.


I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.
I am yours.
I am yours.

Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
I am yours..
I am yours..

Also, whenever you say the words 'merry christmas' you are in fact saying 'merry death of Christ'.

So, its like every time, you see a friend (or yourself) greeting someone with the words 'Merry Christmas', you are in fact celebrating the death of someone.

Scary huh?

Well, here's a story i found on the net... and i found it... quite interesting.

"Just a week before Christmas I had a visitor. This is how it happened. I just finished the household chores for the night and was preparing to go to bed, when I heard a noise in the front of the house. I opened the door to the front room and to my surprise, Santa himself stepped out next to the fireplace.

'What are you doing?' I started to ask. The words choked up in my throat and I saw he had tears in his eyes. His usual jolly manner was gone. Gone was the eager, boisterous soul we all know. He then answered me with a simple statement . . .

'TEACH THE CHILDREN!' I was puzzled. What did he mean? He anticipated my question and with one quick movement brought forth a miniature toy bag from behind the tree. As I stood bewildered, Santa said, 'Teach the children!

Teach them the old meaning of Christmas. The meaning that now-a-days Christmas has forgotten. 'Santa then reached in his bag and pulled out a FIR TREE and placed it before the mantle. 'Teach the children that the pure green color of the stately fir tree remains green all year round, depicting the everlasting hope of mankind, all the needles point heavenward, making it a symbol of man's thoughts turning toward heaven.'

He again reached into his bag and pulled out a brilliant STAR. 'Teach the children that the star was the heavenly sign of promises long ago. God promised a Savior for the world, and the star was the sign of fulfillment of His promise.'

He then reached into his bag and pulled out a CANDLE. 'Teach the children that the candle symbolizes that Christ is the light of the world, and when we see this great light we are reminded of He who displaces the darkness.'

Once again he reached into his bag and removed a WREATH and placed it on the tree. 'Teach the children that the wreath symbolizes the real nature of love. Real love never ceases. Love is one continuous round of affection.'

He then pulled from his bag an ORNAMENT of himself. ‘Teach the children that I, Santa Claus, symbolize the generosity and good will we feel during the month of December.’

He then brought out a HOLLY LEAF. ‘Teach the children that the holly plant represents immortality. It represents the crown of thorns worn by our Savior. The red holly berries represent the blood shed by Him.

Next he pulled from his bag a GIFT and said, ‘Teach the children that God so loved the world that he gave his begotten son.’ Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.

Santa then reached in his bag and pulled out a CANDY CANE and hung it on the tree. ‘Teach the children that the candy cane represents the shepherds' crook. The crook on the staff helps to bring back strayed sheep to the flock. The candy cane is the symbol that we are our brother's keeper.’

He reached in again and pulled out an ANGEL. ‘Teach the children that it was the angels that heralded in the glorious news of the Savior's birth. The angels sang Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace and good will toward men.’

Suddenly I heard a soft twinkling sound, and from his bag he pulled out a BELL,. ‘Teach the children that as the lost sheep are found by the sound of the bell, it should ring mankind to the fold. The bell symbolizes guidance and return.

Santa looked back and was pleased. He looked back at me and I saw that the twinkle was back in his eyes. He said, ‘Remember, teach the children the true meaning of Christmas and do not put me in the center, for I am but a humble servant of the One that is, and I bow down to worship him, our LORD, our GOD.’"

Btw... I still has the resolve from the last journal... [link]

But yea.. at first you dont really notice it, but after a while, when you start to do a few practice pictures, you realize how badly or poorly you draw in comparison to the pro's on dA, and by pro's, i dont mean or or whatnot, but rather, all your friends and peers on dA. And that is really depressing for me.

I know that i have an incredible sense of pride but, i'm tryin to change that. So, for now, i resolve try even harder at art and at my studies cuz i need to improve. Oh yea, that and i'm gonna try to humble myself before others (and try to squeeze God in all i do... )

Cheers~
