1st week of RP Year 3..


For the past few days in the week, I have been busying for my team's FYP meeting.. Almost everyday after school, we have been staying back to meet up and to discuss about it. So far, 1st week meetings were pretty slack, but I foresee in the coming weeks, that our FYP meetings will get more and more stressful and tougher in terms of finishing this project..

This year, the modules I taking are all those business-related modules, and can be very challenging for me although I have the best interest for business as compared to some modules related to IT and others. It's going to be a tough journey for me for the whole of this year, as I walk through the final year of my poly life in Republic Polytechnic..

For the past few days in the week, there were things happening whereby it really ponders my mind or set my mind thinking, having a lot of thoughts going through in my mind...

First of all, is the one which I posted about the lessons to be learnt.. That one I have entirely explained it in that post.. (Few posts down the blog)

Secondly, is about 1 of the post in 1 of my senior bus enthusiast's blog which somehow relates to the one which I talked about the barrier between the senior and junior bus enthusiasts.. Somehow it's really better for me to share about my thoughts and everything in person for those those whom I really wish to share with or those who asked me about it in person..

Last Saturday, went down to have night scenery shots with Xian Hao, Wendy, Melissa & her bf at Esplanade, and after which Melissa went off with her bf while the rest of us went over to Benjamin Shears Bridge (Esplanade side) to have some night scenery shots.. For the both of them were their 1st timers and I can see that they really had a great experience there, while for me..... 2nd time for night scenery shot but 1 time (this week) for my personal quiet time.. (I am only going to post 2 photos for this post, because I am going to relate both the photos in a way or another..)


Each of us have different paths and directions to move on in our personal walk of life... As illustrated in this photo, one can choose to turn left, or remain in the straight road in the expressway (in this case it's East Coast Parkway, in short, ECP). In this photo, it shows that the there is no car passing through at least in the 1st few lanes from the left... In life, most of the time, our life journey are not really as smooth and peaceful as what you see in this photo above..



Over here in this photo, it shows exactly the same place as the 1st photo above, but this time round, one can see all the red lights on the road itself.. Let me tell you why I use expressway as an good example.. At least for Singaporeans in general, their life will be a very stressful and rushing one, to the extent that their journey path of their life are not that smooth as some may thought that way.. Sometimes, things just happened too fast in our eyes, that we may somehow feel lost somewhere in our stressful and busy life..

Let me relate it to my personal walk of life... This year, I am really facing a lot of stress and feel very weary or maybe even get lost out of somewhere in life, but I want to make it a point, that I will finish this race in my entire poly life, without any failure..

As I was having quiet time just now at the void deck in my house block, I asked God to give me a verse or 2 which will really impact my life or encourages me in my spiritual and personal walks of life, and this is what God spoke to me:

But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; in fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple. Lead me, O LORD, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; make Your way straight before my face.
- Psalm 5:7-8

In these 2 verses, the enemies can refer to all the physical and mental stress that I have due to my school work and FYP... And in a way, these 2 verses really encourage me a lot, not to just got lost out of nowhere but come back to the Lord and follow His way that He will guide me through the final year that I have in my poly life.. Before I end off and take a 4 hours sleep, I shall end off with a prayer..

Lord, i lift up my stressful and rushing life that i am facing into Your hands right now. Lord, as i pray that from the verses that You gave me during my quiet time just now, that You word will encourage me to continue my stressful race in my final year of poly life.. Lord, as i may feel weary and stressful in time to come throughout this whole year, i pray oh Lord that You will provide me with the supernatural holy spirit, that this spirit can overcome all the difficulties and uncertainties i have in my life.. i pray oh Lord that You will continue to channel Your blessing to us so that we can channel our blessings to all our fellow friends, even within my team for FYP.. Bless them and me in all areas of our personal walk of life.. In Jesus mighty name i pray..... Amen.....


Which path should i go? Will i be confused and get lost somewhere just because everyday i have been keep busying on my FYP meetings and other stuffs? Lord, i really need Your strong guidance in walking through this final journey of my poly life... Lord, i really want to finish this race without any failure and giving up...

Cheers to all and God bless! ^_^
