God is my:
Father. Refuge. Best friend. Comforter. Mentor. Savior !!!
He's there when:
I'm in trouble. I'm weak. I'm down. I'm angry. I'm lonely.
He sees every tear that falls.
He knows how I feel when I'm excluded from a group.
He's with me even when the entire world is against me.
My God is the awesome God,
the loving and caring God,
the everlasting God
So what if I can't sing in the right tune?
I'm not singing for the people around me,
I'm singing to God, for God!
And God doesn't care if I sound bad!
Why should I be scared to praise him out loud?!

IMPRESSIVE!

Five to go to Oxford!
Five Cobham Hall students have been offered places at Oxford University Colleges.  The rigorous interviews and entrance papers behind them, the five students spent a rather nervous Christmas holiday, waiting to hear whether they had been successful in gaining an offer of a place at the college of their choice.  With the New Year came the news that all five had been successful, and the new term started with celebrations and congratulations from staff and fellow students.
The girls will be reading the following subjects:
Katy Theobald - Experimental Psychology at Balliol
Jennifer Dick - Human Science at New College
Joy Tuffield - Physics & Philosophy at St Hilda’s
Katherine Cook - Classics at Exeter College
Xi Sun - Engineering Science at St Hugh’s

The girls are now concentrating on the all-important examinations in the Summer to ensure that they achieve the required A Level grades.
Jennifer has decided to postpone her entry to Oxford and will be taking a GAP year working for Deloitte, where she was selected from over 100 applicants for a prestigious scholarship placement.

I know I should  practice typing in chinese, but it's just too much work. Not until I am familiar with pinyin can I type faster in chinese.
So... here's what's going on in my life these days: finals started today and obviously I was "youtubing" instead of studying and totally bombed my Physics and Math finals today. But... whatever, they're already history now. I have Econ and English tomorrow. Absolutely don't feel like studying. I somehow feel that senior year is more stressful than junior year. Maybe my expectation for senir year is too high.
The kitchen/bathroom remodeling is almost done, maybe two more weeks. We'll be cooking with th brand new Kitchen Aid cook top today. So that's kind of exciting.
Spritual growth: After Pastor Albert's great sermon on Sunday ( I seriously think it's the BEST sermon I heard from him), I've decided to read the bible everyday and ask God to give me strength to have determination, so I won't quit after like two days. I think God, through Annie, lighted the the fire in me after a spritual low for more than a year. More like, seeing Annie's passion/eagerness to know God and to do great work for him makes me feel guilty about not beinga good daughter of God. The faith she has in God motivated me. I never thought that there'll be a revival in Leland but the trust she has in God truely shows me that God listens and as long as I keep praying about ___, God'll prepare it for me in his time.

Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."
