April Fool's
It's April Fool's Day. And there's no school. No playing pranks on teachers or friends. How so not fun. Can't believe it.

I remembered last year, all the classes never played tricks on teachers. Then, the teachers got quite worried cos we normally play pranks on them. They thought we were too stressed or something. Haha. It was pretty funny.

Just went to tighten my braces this morning. Now, it's not yet painful. Got to eat porridge though. Oh well. Got to bear with it I guess. And I also got my HC uniform. I look weird in it. Maybe I've gotten used to the white-and-blue look that is MG. Hmm...would like to wear the AC uniform one day. I'm sure going to miss my MG u...

Fear Factor
Watched the Fear Factor Championship Special. Whoa. The stunts are CRAZY!!! Oh man...i think if i were one of them, i would have been TOTALLY freaked out. But then again, I would never have the guts to join the show. Haha. Gotta eat gross stuff. That's not me. Anyway, in the previous episode, the guys and girls were separated. So, tonight, it was round 2 and 3. For round 2, the girls had to swim with alligators!!! And only 1 quit, but then again, she's a mum. Oh my gosh. And the guys, they had to eat some super gross stuff. Cow's brain, rectum, fermented squid gut, hottest pepper, beetle, earthworm, etc. Disgusting. What they have to eat depend on their luck I suppose. The final round was just plain crazy. It's very hard to describe. But that had a lot to do with luck also. Oh well. Wanted Larry to win, but in the end, Jeff won. Guess he deserved it.

Sometimes, I just wonder why these people dare to be on the show. Guess partly it's because of the money. But the money is only $50,000, quite pathetic if you compare it to Amazing Race or Survivor. Oh well...maybe it's also because of the title, to prove that fear is not a factor to them. But I think Fear Factor is quite extreme. If you ask me to name an ideal reality show, it'd have to be Amazing Race. I may, one day, join the Amazing Race. That's one of my wildest dreams...

What is a diary for?
I don't know why I even bother to actually start an online diary/blog and update it regularly. I guess you could say that it was due to peer pressure. So many people having an online diary. Plus, i'm often bored when i'm online. But what's the purpose of me keeping a diary? A diary is supposed to be a reflection, your thoughts on anything. But I feel for my case, I'm just writing down events, not reflections, stating down all the facts and figures. Most people are able to talk about their deepest inner feelings. But I am unable to, or at least, I don't want to. Perhaps there's this part of me that don't want people to know everything about me. I'm just letting them see my outer self, but i'm hiding my inner self from them. Whenever I write a diary, I will leave out those parts that I feel are most personal. I don't write my thoughts, I write my edited thoughts. And it just doesn't feel right. Which brings me back to the question, what's a diary for?

A Time for Everything
I just happened to read this last night.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

"There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace
"

There are many times when I question God for the things that have happened. Like now, with the war, SARS and everything. Sometimes, I just wonder, what have we done and why have God put us all through these things. But like many others, I tend to forget that there is a time for everything under heaven, and that He has made everything beautiful in its time. God has a bigger plan for all of us, He knows what's best for us. We may not understand what's going on, but I'm sure, in time to come, we'll look back and be able to comprehend His plan for us. God has a purpose for each and every single one of us. All we have to do, I guess, is to trust in the Lord.

Boredom Reigns
As you can see, i'm obviously feeling very bored now. So i'll just write more entries... Guess it's better than playing all those online games. Have gotten sick of playing online bridge, daidee, pool, hearts. Might as well start getting sick of freecell and solitaire too. But I haven't played freecell for so long, now i have no idea how to solve it. Oh well. Food for thought. May watch the Daredevil clip I downloaded last night later...

SARS Outbreak
I can tell that my mum is super worried about the SARS thing, which makes me even more worried too. Hey, she's back home in Indonesia kayz, and I am like in S'pore. And yet she worries more than me. Guess all mothers are like that. Haha. Oh well. Just wondering if the holidays are going to be extended again. Because if it is, my mum is asking me to go back home. She's already asked me to book a ticket on Wednesday, just in case it is really extended. I have nothing to say...
