Reassurance for a difficult day.... I recall this song from my old church's Sunday School

In God's green pastures feeding
By his cool waters lie
Soft in the evening walk my Lord and I
All the sheep of his pasture fair so wondrously fine
His sheep
And
I

CHORUS:
Waters cool
In the valley
Pastures green
On the mountain
In the evening walk my Lord and I
Dark the night
In the valley
Rough the way
On the mountain
Step by step, my Lord and I

Surely goodness and mercy ever shall follow me
All through my days the Lord my shepard be
In the house of the Lord I shall forever be
His sheep
And
I

Today was a bad day. Except a few incidents that left me smiling quite happily, today generally left me zonked and winded.

FIRST. If I HADN'T caught up on the newspapers before I came to post, I would flame someone. And I would flame so hard that he/she would not melt. Not would he/she vaporize. He/she would simply sublime. And not just from the surface outside. He/she would disappear in the blink of an eye. But honestly, such nice advice that person gave about certain aspects of my PW.

SECOND. GP was a disaster. It left me and most other people with the feeling of being rolled over by a Sherman tank. It was so CHEEM and CHEEMEFYING and CHEEMEFIED. I had absolutely no CHEEMology with which to answer this thing. Feel really worn by the paper and I won't recover in a hurry. I think I need CHEEMotherapy. Somemore we had already gotten through one CHem skill A and one paper 1. Like those weren't bad enough, this was the final nail in the coffin. If I got more than 6 out of 16 for summary and AQ put together I'll be happy. Thats how bad it was. I was totally utterly incoherent.

What else happened today... oh yar, Gerry brought Victoria n I to Dayton at Paya Lebar to take a dekko at our shirts, which, hopefully, will be processed smoothly. I realised I have almost no flair for aesthetic appeal and will go for the most practical thing (whether it looks good or not). Whether thats good or bad... I guess it depends on the situation, but for appearance-conscious teens, I guess its not good...

Also went fencing today. I can't believe I can't even survive 1/2 hour of foil training! How did I do it the last time??? Not many people were there..... Beat Maurice twice (but he was fooling around) and lost to Ron from SMU. The new rules are interesting.... 2 points for hand hits and 1 point for foot hit....

I only did two good fleches and 1 good close quarter.... die man. How to win novices??

ANw its totally been a long day (only got back at 10.35 and ate both lunch AND dinner).. I'm for bed.. good night!
