Out with 2, 3 more to go!

As i'd mentioned, here's an update on the biochem paper that i sat for this afternoon. First and foremost, i'd expected the worst from this paper. I was worried the whole morning, contemplating whether i had studied enough. Simultaneously, trying to recall all the awkward and complex structures of carbohydrates, lipids and amino acids in my head. Subsequently giving me a terrible headache.

Before starting on the paper, i said a prayer in my heart. Asking God for His wisdom and favour, and most importantly His peace. Its difficult to answer the questions and having to pay full attention to what im doing, when there's plenty of butterflies flying in my stomach.

To my amazement, the paper wasnt tough at all. It was a lil tricky because the answers given were rather similar to one another. I did make a few careless mistakes here and there due to uncertainties, yet i blieve i did well. Im not boasting, pls dont get me wrong. I give all glory to God because i am without a doubt sure, that if it wasnt for my Lord, i wouldnt have done it with excellence =)

After the paper was over, my lecturer discussed and gave us the answers. From what i could remember, i blieve i made 5 mistakes out of 50 questions. Im really glad and thankful. Couldnt be more happier.

Anywayz, ive got 3 more papers to go. Hence, its time to get back to work because ive also assignments and lab reports due soon.

Hmm..and i need to find time to go shopping for a new backpack or a sling bag. The current and only one i have, and am using now might just give in anytime! Therefore, i better go get one before it does.

Well off i go, have to start my research on Vitamin K. If anyone has any interesting websites or articles concerning it, do share it with me. Thank you! =)

Just wasting time

Here i am again, blogging! As usual, i should be studying right now but i always end up doing the opposite. Im bored of having to study biochem already, there's so much to memorise! I seriously cant imagine how my dear trixie does it, she's majoring in biochem by the way.

The worst part is im not done revising everything yet! Ive just completed the whole chapter on lipids and ive another one to go; amino acids..tsk tsk. I'll definitely be up all night, i mean morning. Hopefully the biochem paper tmr isnt that tough, but thats very unlikely. Since Dr.Lee my biochem lecturer, has very high standards.

Hence, im just going to trust God and do my part; which means i better get going and start reading about amino acids. Oh did you know there's 20 naturally occuring amino acids? And the first one discovered was found in the asparagus, called asparagine. lolz. Well it doesnt concern you, so why bother right? hehe..

Will blog more tmr and i'll update everyone on the biochem paper. Cassie over and out. Cioaz!

Books and food, cant live without them.

Its 5 mins to 12am and im lazing around, when im supposed to be studying BIOCHEM!! Having a test this coming tues, and ive only completed chapter 1 unlike "somebody" who is way ahead of me lolz. There's nothing much going on at the moment, except for the Man U vs Wigan match, and of course Man U is leading by a goal. Thanks to the talented Wayne. Yes, im a loyal Man U fan. Gary Neville was my 1st love, i think he's an excellent defender. lolz. Oh yeah, if you're a Chelsea supported, you're going down! muahaha.. and i blieve the blowfly will have alot to say, after this post has been posted hehe. Y'know, Lampard isnt that great :P

Well, its been a fabulous day. Not because something out of the ordinary happened, its just one of those days that you wake up feeling free! Had a good night sleep too. Its been quite awhile since i did. Saying a PRAYER before bedtime, makes a BIG difference!

I got a new book today at the Times warehse sale. Written by Paulo Coelho, im sure he's no stranger to those who reads alot. I intended to get 'The Alchemist' but something else caught my eyes, 'By The River Piedra I Sat Down And Wept'. I read through the synopsis that was printed behind, and i found it more intriguing than the latter. So my dad bought it for me. This might sound a lil weird, but buying books gives me a different kind of satisfaction and joy. Ive a soft spot for books.

Unfortunately, im not done reading another book yet. 'Tuesdays With Morrie' by Mitch Albom.
Not forgetting, i'll be having tonnes of exams for this few weeks. Hence, it'll be some time before i can start flipping through the pages of my new book.

Had a mouth-watering dinner at my aunt's plc in Puchong. The mutton that she cooked was pure haven lolz. It was soft and tender, unlike the chewy ones that you get from the nasi kandar stall. The asam fish curry was superb! I really thank God for food! Good food. I think i better cut short, before anyone starts drooling on their keyboards lolz.

Overall, its been a fantastic day =)

Its been a long time...

Its been almost a month since i updated my blog. Over such a short period, so many things have happened and im still taking it in, bit by bit. I got my heartbroken again, found out that my mum might have to undergo an operation, and im struggling and trying very hard to cope with studies and my current mid-term exams. Im still feeling overwhelmed, but God has been truly gracious and merciful. Im constantly reminded of a verse in the Bible that promises us; whatever obsticles that is before us, we CAN OVERCOME because CHRIST IS WITH US.

I wanted to stop blogging bcause of all these, but a friend told me to not let a few unfortunate events hold me back. And it suddenly dawned on me that i should continue on blogging, that i may encourage others. Eventhough i fall quite alot, God still helps me up on my feet again. Enabling me to go further than i did before, making me stronger and wiser too.

I believe everything happens for a reason, eventhough some could have been prevented but the most important thing, is that we learn and grow from it. Life can be a little bitter at times, but its sweetness overides it all the time.

Im just very thankful for God's love, peace and faithfulness. I wouldnt have made it this far without Him. Im glad that He brought many good friends along the way, who encouraged and cheered me on when i was at my worst. Im grateful for each one of you.

Well when something ends, new things are bound to happen. Good things, im certain.

If situations in life has been a little hard on you, dont fret and just dwell in it. Get up, move and run ahead. There's so much more in store for those who seek Him, our saving grace, Jesus Christ.
