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

Orientation was really really fun, but as much as it was a blast, it was extremely tiring. People who've seen me in church on saturday would know. Shuang said I looked as though I was still in lalaland. In a sense, I still am, especially because my body hasn't really adjusted to sleeping and waking early.
Anyways, I LOVE MY CLASS!!! 07A13A rocks! I really thank God because I've got really great people as classmates like Julee, Bren, Sabbie and William. At least I have two ex-classmates and one churchmate. (: Mr. Sowden, my form teacher and RJ's only resident grandfather, is endearingly quirky too! The best thing is that we're a class that's really into arts and we're all under the Humans provisional scholarship (I think) so have a common passion for the humanities. Finally, we're in a class of our own.
Right now the only thing that's keep this from becoming picture perfect is TSD. I don't know if I'll get in for Theatre Studies and Drama. The audition went ok but I can't believe I forgot about the written paper! *smacks forehead hard* At least Mr. Lyon was nice enough to let me sit for it after the war games. I'm really praying real hard that I'll get in, or else I'll have to choose either economics or history. *grimaces* But if I don't, it'll really be God's will and I'll accept it. TSD's rather time-consuming too so I guess it might be just as well.
I'm looking forward for this year to get into full swing, in terms of school and church. God has really got me excited about what He's going to do and how He will use me for His purpose. Though initially there'll be lots of adjustments and stuff, and I'll have to find the right balance of all my commitments, I believe God will bring me through every single step of the way.
I'd better go prepare for school to start proper tomorrow. My planner's really empty and all so I need to start filling it up, like marking all the important dates and stuff.
To my fellow J1s, hope you guys have enjoyed orientation and all the best for the new school year ahead!
