It is finished.

"God never moves without purpose or plan..."

I just submitted my JAE Application Form. It is with much tears and prayers that I have sent in my application. With trembling and prayer, I clicked the 'Submit' button. Now that I have chosen my route on a JC path instead of what I had initially intended (a polytechnic), I pray that I'll be able to go to church regularly. Many of the JC students in Church rarely make it to YF or Prayer Meeting, and I fear that this would happen to me as well. But my God is great, my God is good; as someone in my church mentioned to me that as long as I set apart the time for God, God will help and ensure that I'll be able to make it for YF and Prayer Meeting.

As the hymn goes
"So amid the conflict, whether great or small,
Do not be discouraged - God is over all;
Count your every blessing - angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey's end."

I thank God for the concern that many church members have shown me over this period, from ever since before the O Levels' started and even up to now. Before the O Levels' began, it was the 'mugging' regime. Following the O Levels' was the release of the results, and I had many fears but God relieved me of all these fears. As I make my selection, God used His people in the Church to encourage me. O what a blessing from God! Indeed, God mercies are ever present and "new every morning".

As I await the results and postings of my selection, this is my prayer: "Wherever He leads I'll go, I'll follow my Christ who loves me so." God always knows best, and I'm very assured of that.

Proverbs 3:5-7 "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil."

GN-001 Exia & GN-002 Dynames

GN-001 Gundam Exia

Yeah, I repainted my Exia. Basically I just black lined it, and coloured in certain colours to make it more accurate.

GN-002 Gundam Dyanmes

Well well, my second Gundam 00 model, the sniping master Gundam Dynames. Dynames is rather cool. Look at the sniping position and the GN full armour! =D


Dual gundams. When I'm done with Kyrios, I'll do the scene from Episode 15! (You know, the one where Dynames sits on Kyrios. =D)

O.O I WANT!

A gentle reminder: my birthday is in June. =D

  1. Jumbo Grade Zeta Gundam
  2. HCM Pro Gundam Exia (Special Colours)
  3. HG Gundam Throne Eins
  4. (Gundam 00 Exia spoiler) GN Arms - transforming weapons platform w/ special specs HG Gundam Exia
  5. HGUC Nu Gundam
I think these will suffice, for now. It would be great if I could have all 5 of them, especially the Jumbo Grade Zeta! =D

*I'm done with Gundam Dynames, will post soon. (Goes to work on Gundam Kyrios...)

Questions in my Head

I'm in a dilemma now... I have to make my selection of schools within 2 days... I always thought that I was decided to go to a Polytechnic and study CG or 3D animation, but it looks like I have to rethink this.

My dad spoke to like dunno how many people, and EVERY SINGLE ONE of those he spoke to thinks I should go to a JC and pursue my studies there instead. They all think I have potential and a person of my caliber should be in a JC, or else it's a waste of my abilities. Honestly, I have no idea where to go now.

Questions
The sound of footsteps echo in the hallways whilst class is in session;
The sound of the ceaseless rain follows
.

In such uncertainty, I wonder if we can leave behind everyone's thoughts somewhere;
I wonder how far we will go to protect a single thought.

The ceaseless voices of people are like waves,
Never ending and rather disturbing.

The present continues into the future,
I think...
----------

To add on, I've to get the uniforms for the Sec 1s. I have to do out a consent form, and I'm hoping my senior can get a soft copy of the old consent form for me. I also have to finish up their target test, another thing which takes up much time as well.

God, I need Thy strength. "God gives wings, as eagles... and strength to rise above..."

SD RX-78-2 Gundam and SD MS-06S Char's Custom Zaku II

Well, my camera's fixed! Praise the LORD! (Double blessing! Actually, I went to collect my camera after getting my results.) Now, moving on to the main attraction, the models!

First up, SD RX-78-2 Gundam.


All weapons equipped, along with the "Last Shooting" pose!
----------
Next, we have SD MS-06S Char's Custom Zaku II

Char's Custom Zaku II! Thrice the speed of a regular zaku, with a lot more fire power! The last weapon is a Beam Bazooka, I think it's some game-only weapon.
----------
Fighting Scenes!

And the famous "Red Comet Kick"!

Release Restrain!

Praise the LORD!

YES! The long awaited results are finally released. I did well, praise the LORD! All glory be to God, for without Him, I'd probably failed miserably no matter how hard I tried. I'm like a free man now, but death awaits in my further education ><

EDIT: I forgot to thank the people who helped me get my results and prayed for me at the same time! How could I? Thanks to all who encouraged me while I was feeling some what or rather depressed. Also, a word of thanks to my teachers as well. Well, I disappointed some of them, but still...

Now, the question is "Where should I go; a polytechnic or a junior college?" I await for my LORD to give me His answer for me, for the Lord knows best.

Psalm 37:23-24
"The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand."

*Nope, no emo poem this time.

D-Day

Tomorrow is D-day. As of the time I typed this, I'm 25 hours from D-day.

*cue for very disturbing music in the background*

Disturbed
When I seek in the night, I'm swallowed by the darkness.
When I seek in the morning, I'm blinded by the morning light.

When I'm satisfied, I worry once again.
When I'm happy, I'll start crying.

You don't realize - The pain within my heart.
It hurts.

I can't find the answer, and neither can any help.
I just step forward.

----------
I'm anticipating the results with much anxiety in my heart. There are many things I keep to myself. I just pray that I'll get good reasonable results.

Sadness and Grief

Well, many things come into my mind now, and I'm filled with much sadness as the O Levels results will be released in a matter of days. I'm really not looking forward to it, cause that would mean that I would have no more holidays. That aside, thoughts about further studies come into my mind, so now my brain is on the verge of exploding.

Tears
Nothing is going the way it should go,
I feel the tears swelling in my eyes.

All this anxiety and nervousness is sending my mind into a disorder:
Just like a little boy hugging his knees in the midst of tears.

Shivering and in tears, I repress all my regret;
I cried all night, but now it seems dawn is breaking...

I'll keep my secrets all locked away in my heart
Until my dreams come true, then shall I tell the world...

I surrendered myself to a dismal emptiness -
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't quite reach the standard set...

How will my story end? Will I be able to reach the standard? All will be made known in but a few days...

RX-78GP02 Gundam Prototype GP02

Well, I'm back with my models! This time, it's an SD Gundam, Gundam Prototype GP02 to be exact. Well, it's a really cool model. It took me 2 days to get it done and painted. The result, one really cool SD Gundam! GP02 is my 2nd favourite mecha from Gundam 0083, the first being GP01Fb.

Some of it's cool gimmicks include keeping the bazooka in the shield, and retracting of the bazooka, along with movable thrusters.


Front View


Back View - (Check out the shield on the left hand, the empty spot is for the bazooka. Also check out the multiple movable thrusters!)


Bazooka equipped!

Look out for more! The moment I get my camera back, I'll start snapping my RX-78-2!

Odd Quirks Of Life

Well, if anyone noticed, I closed my other blog. No particular reason, except for the fact that I'm too lazy to maintain 2 blogs at one time, especially when one is almost dead... So when I closed that blog down, I'm gonna post what comes into my mind as I go to school, move around, talk to people, or whenever I'm in the toilet etc etc.

Firstly, I'm VERY STRESSED. *What?! You have no school and still holidaying! What stress?!* Well, my results, which I dread, will be released very soon; the worst part: I have no idea as to where to go! I don't know what is God's will for me as to where to go! ARGH! You know this stressing and irritating thought (where to go for 2008) has been bugging me for the past 3 months. But one thing I'm assured of, is that God will show me His way, and His way is the best. This makes me remember one of the Youth Camp games we played, 'Treasure Hunt'. Brother Boon Siang mentioned that God's will isn't revealed in whole at times, but God can also choose to reveal His will bit by bit. Indeed, I know God is showing me what He wants me to do, bit by bit.

I quote the hymn writer,
"He's still working on me, to make me what I ought to be..."

Nextly, I'm pissed. Why? Cause my camera is spoilt. And it costs $117 to repair it. And it's supposed to be under warranty. What kinda logic is that? I have to pay $117 for something that's still under warranty?! I mean, I have to travel for 1 and a half hours to get to that stupid Fujifilm building and you're telling me to pay $117 when it's under warranty! I wasted my time going there man...

Lastly, I think I'm going crazy...

Youth Camp 2007: Fearing God and Overcoming Temptation

Youth Camp 2007: Fearing God and Overcoming Temptation

It's indeed a very timely message. To have such a camp held before the new year, it's really a time to rededicate and commit one's life to God again. Temptations are faced by all, no matter how old or young one is, and it is never possible to overcome temptation by one's own strength. It is by God's divine grace and help that helps one overcome temptation.

I pray that this year, I will, with God's grace, resist the temptations posed by the Devil. It's never easy, and I have fallen time and again to many temptations. But by God's grace and providence, God has kept me through the whole of 2007, and I pray that He will keep me in 2008 as well. I know that my God is able to carry me through.
