Everyone needs compassion
Love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Saviour
The hope of nations
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender
Shine your light in
Let the whole world see
We're singing, for the glory
Of the risen King
Jesus, Shine your light in
Let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory
Of the risen king

I'm definitely going to apply for RJC humantities scholarship. It's way too good to be true! Imagine getting $2000 in your bank account just for studying humanities, which I enjoy to no end. Even if you didn't pay me, I'd still happily study it on my own accord! English Lit, human geog etc... bliss. I've decided to drop the sciences; I'm more geared towards the arts. Some may say that is a risky thing to do, but I know myself enough to forsee a future in the arts, not sciences. I love the arts, feel the passion for studying it and I might as well go all the way; no regrets or looking back.
The Q&A session with two humanities teachers in-charge of the humans scholarship was extremely informative and insightful. A few humans scholars from RJ, Pek, Shums, Ely and some other girl came down to dialogue with us too. Apparently the camaraderie amongst the humans scholars and their class is really awesome; the support and encouragement they give each other spurs them on. They got me all excited about this programme. Taking Lit is compulsory, while your other two H2 subjects should be humanities subjects, plus another H2 contrasting subject. An example of a typical subject combination for a humans scholar is something like this:
Lit,
History/Geog,
Econs,
Knowledge and Inquiry/ Maths.
Isn't this cool or what? That's exactly what I'm gonna take in JC, except for the bit about KI. I'd like to take it because it seems to compliment the other subjects well but I'm kinda scared, or rather put off by the possibility of doing a philosophy-like subject for the A levels! I'm so glad that philosophy is over for now and couldn't be happier to get rid of it. But then again, KI can help me develop intellectual and philosophical rigour, sharpen my thinking and analytical skills as well as my questioning techniques. This will help if I were to do psychology in uni. On the other hand, I'll need maths to do psychology.
Dilemma dilemma.
Never mind, I shan't worry about that for now. I'll just work on pulling up my humans grades. I can't wait for next year!
