11 September 2008 - Interclass Touch Rugby Game

Winner : Class 3B (i.e. my class :) )



Our 1st and well-deserved victory


We worked hard for it with dedicated team captains (Gideon and Ren Han) who took time off to hold short training sessions for newbies. During the games itself, we fought hard with tremendous support and faith coming from other classmates and even coursemates of another class. The taste of victory was made sweeter knowing that we there were so much moral support coming from the sidelines. Haha..the crowd was rather tame that night as compared to the basketball and soccer matches. Maybe there were less people around this time but nonetheless my class was 'LOUD' in our spirits and sense of camaraderie.



Winning aside, the stronger bond that's being established was more significant and memorable. See....there's definitely more to games than just winning! Hopefully this will be the start to greater things ahead for the class.


THE WHACKY CLASS OF 2008 - PGDE 3B/YR 1 (incomplete)



The 2 char-bohs present. The 3rd absent. That night, the guys decided to coin the term "3Gs" on us since there are only 3 gals in the class. Ermm...they had a rather lousy attempt at trying to give Liling a name that starts with 'G' - Gigi/ Gabriella/ Geraldine!!! Think Gigi was the popular choice! Haha

Just some of the dudes in the class...not all were down.

WOOOOSH! WAY TO GO 3B! :)

Wo(Man) of the hour

As I read the tribute to the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, I can't help but feel this profoundly deep admiration for this immensely brilliant forefather of Singapore. I was in awe of his contributions and how his influence is so pervasive in modern Singapore, yet so few actually heard and know of his legacy. The more I read on about what people remembered of him and his long list of accolades, the more proud I am to be a Singaporean. I never knew places of interests like our zoo, bird park and even Sentosa were his ideas! These are just a tiny fraction of his contributions. My gosh....it was just an incredible discovery and I was hooked to the Saturday's Special edition on 'Remember Dr Goh Keng Swee'. Strangely, my heart was pounding as I read and later reflected on this titan's life. Instinctively, a question came to mind i.e. will there be another titan like Dr Goh, Mr Lee KY, Mr Wee Kim Wee or the other members of the Old Guard in my generation? Will I get to see one em...

SHAKING OFF THE DUST

Its been a long hiatus :) So many things have taken place and so many reflections to document but the inertia to do it was just to great to resist. Anyhow, decided to take some time during this break to start the 'blogging engine' going again. Hopefully, it revives my hope and wish to keep this site alive.  Just had the annual ODAC camp @ Ubin and while trekking around the island with the kiddies yesterday, I chanced upon this little grasshopper at the Sensory Trail. I managed to get up close and personal for this shot, which was taken with my new iPhone 7 ahem. Image was sharp and it looked great!  And the verse that came to mind was: "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?....Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." - Matthew 6: 26-34 In my rest...

PSALM 121

I lift my eyes to the hills - where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel, will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you - the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Many a times, man fails to keep his promise but God never. He makes a promise and we can be so sure He will keep it forever and ever. Man may fail but He nevers. Sometimes, we may wonder if God is really doing the right thing for us but I know one thing - trusting Him is the only thing that can never go wrong :)
