Hebrews 4:16

my name comes from the Greek word charis which means the grace of God. God's grace has truly been upon me all these years and God has proven himself again and again that His grace is sufficient for me. He has carried me through my darkest moments when i felt like giving up. by His grace i pulled through because 'i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me'. (Philippians 4:13)

an incident close to my heart was when i had to juggle my studies and cheerleading commitments (i miss cheer so much :( ) at the same time. it was by far the craziest period of my life and i learnt a lot from it. there were many setbacks as my team was still new and inexperienced, and a large part of the responsibility to come up with the whole routine was on me as the captain as most of he other cheerleaders were newbies and i had a ballet background. the pressure was huge because it was a national cheerleading competition.

that year was also my spm year and i had not begun preparing for it yet so imagine the amount of stress i had at that time. at one point i couldn't take it anymore and i just broke down and cried. i was even prepared to get a few B's for spm but God in His awesomeness blessed me with straight A's. and as for cheerleading, we managed to get our moves together just in time for the competition. praise God!

being in one of the toughest courses on earth is yea, tough. but what keeps me going is my desire to be a successful pharmacy graduate one day. the previous semester was more challenging compared to the first with assignments on top of the usual lab reports. it was terrible trying to juggle all these and my studies, and make time for myself. my sanity was at stake. never in my life have i gotten angry and frustrated in 4 months as much as i did during the 4 months of assignments, trying to get a decent report/presentation done because some people up to this point are still hopeless in research or are just plain uncoorperative.

the exam results were out last week and i'm thankful that i failed only one out of two subjects that i had expected to fail which were pns and bmc. thank God that i passed pns because this means that i don't have to touch that thick stack of killer notes again for supplementary exam. by God's grace i believe i can do well in the bmc supplementary paper and move on to year 2 baggage free. pray for me yea? =)

"Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace in time of need." -Hebrews 4:16
