God's control

this week is a stark contrast of the previous week.
i couldn't believe it. pinch me, am i dreaming?

firstly, i lost my beloved phone.. apparently someone picked it up and kept it.
How can it be that people are so deprived of integrity these days?
Don't they at all comprehend how i feel?
ok, im making a dumb remark, but these people,they really make me furious!
well, what was really dumber was tt i argued with my mom abt buying a new phone.. the selfish and greedy me, just kept insisting on getting gd phones and i ended up throwing tantrums. boy was i naughty. but im glad i realised my mistake.. and tried to amend my mistakes the way God wanted me too.
so, fiona wrote a note to her mom, apologising. =) heeeh

so right.. what could happen nxt huh? the absence of my phone was already bad enough.
what happened was just such a coincidence, i don't blame her(my classmate)..
she swung the squash racquet right at my temple.. boy, the pain was throbbing.
i thot i suffered from some concussion thn.. i was wOooZy!

apparently mental pain and physical pain was inflicted on me.. it was already disastrous..
saturday came, the day i was enthusiastically waiting for!!
Pulau Ubin devo cum fun time + my date a.k.a teens grp fellowship!
it all started pretty well.. sparked off our journey with our first devo, singing and praying.
and we rented our bike upon reaching there.
was merrily riding my bike, although with some difficulties.. but i still managed to heave on, going up slopes and all.. nearly got knocked by a van though, reckless me!

it is till i reached that SLOPE.
clueless i was to how steep and long it was..
i just rode off..
the bike accelerated, naturally.
i tried braking, recalling that i needed to brake while going down slopes.
but it was too late!
my bike has complete gone berserk, off my control!
i muttered,"gosh, oh no. oh my gosh."
and there was silence.
in my mind, i thot," ok, i'll fall."
and in a split second, *SMACK*
i fell flat on the pebbled path.
rather oblivious to what was going on, only feeling acute pain on my limbs, danny pulled me up.
blood was dripping incessantly down my chin. *phew, luckily not my braces!*
felt woozy again..
i knew it wasnt a small injury.....
using martin's towel to press on my wound, i walked back to the first aid corner where the policemen attened to me.
how comical the first aider was!
i had fun in fact! =)
but well, im truly grateful to danny and peiling, chauffeuring me all e way to changi hospital, the nearest.
at the jetty, i became the talking point of the day. all the boat uncles were expressing their concern and gave some sound advices. ahaha. how cute!

evryone was flabbergasted upon seeing my chin laceration.
it was deep! utterly!
it resembled a smaller mouth on my chin.
3 cm wide.
and worst of all, i waited 4 hrs +++ to get my stitches done.
well, perhaps that's why i had a sticker with the word "patient" on it.

anyway, it was my first time having to stitch up a wound. and im sincerely touched by the care my brothers and sisters showered upon me..
but i thot, it wasn't scary cos God was with me.
i knew God protected me, if not things could've been worst!
Thank u God for providing me with tt ounce of strength and that wonderful grp of companions who cared. =)

as much as this week wasn't the best..
i knew God had a reason for mishaps to occur, and ive definitely learnt much frm it.
i am disabled now, but ive got my shepherd to lead me through the pastures and the valley of death.
so, why would i be afraid at all? =)
