studying for my exam tomorrow. it's been a really long time since that word has crossed my lips - exam. feels alien even. anyway we're starting with something not so taxing, mcqs, over 2 hours. mcq = multiple choice questions. am i ready? not by a long shot. :P hoping to fly by the seat of my pants.

today is an ultra important day - dian got married. the first one of my girlfren's from sec sch to get married.

fifi was so cute and so sweet. she was wearing the blackest look the whole morning until aida started asking her why. was she hungry? tired? sleepy? she shook her head resolutely until angry? sad? 2 nods. why? "cos after today i'll never see aunty dian again." oh man. like praisie said "when did she start speaking in complete sentenses??"

our lady of the hour was oh so beautiful in her cream coloured gown. and the usually ott gal smiling so sweetly and demurely... :) but before defamation suits get underway, i thought it was a really sweet simple ceremony witnessed by relatives and friends alike.

Isaiah 53:5

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

We are healed by Your sacrifice
And the life that You gave
We are healed for You paid the price
By Your grace we are saved
We are saved

He was pierced for our transgressions
And crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

We are healed by Your sacrifice
And the life that You gave
We are healed for You paid the price
By Your grace we are saved
We are saved

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed
And by His wounds, by His wounds

What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus

interesting website. carpool-ing has been around for many years, but in singapore the idea hasn't really kicked off in a big way. came across this website with the idea taken to the next level - taxi-pooling. the concept is simple. like minded people with similar start points, end points and start times in the journey share a cab, splitting the cost of taking the cab. kinda like the premium bus services started recently only instead of only applying to people along a particular route, new routes can now be created at all times of the day. currently there are only 50 users so it may not work just yet but once the pool gets to be in the hundreds i think the idea will fly. tagxe. a new way to travel.

been spending too much time on facebook. warbook is the latest thing that i'm hooked on. kinda like rpg only slower cos of the way the game is structured. you get an income, get hit by other players and hit back with either spells or attacks involving virtual armies. as in real life, there are people just looking to have some fun and then there are the crazies who cheat and do all sorts of things to level up and whack the living daylights out of other players. fairly simple game but still something quite addictive to stay alive.

was so irritated when i thought the internet at home was down the whole of this morning and part of the afternoon. then my brother came home and reset the modem. reset. that was the solution. and here i was trying to figure out what was wrong with the darn thing from restarting the computer to unplugging every wire and replugging it in a different configuration, to testing the phone line. geez. but because i didn't know about the existence or use of a restart button, the simple solution evaded me. boy did i feel dumb after that. but you know what? i learnt something today.
