Praise Jesus! Praise Jesus!
I got my bursary!! $800 MOE bursary!!
my school fees is settled!!
:):):):):):):)

whenever a new semester starts, i'll start worrying about the school fees..whether what i'm trying to earn is enough to cover the amount, whether my pay will come in time to pay for the school fees, whether there are other ways i can pay the amount..and obviously, it applied to this sem too..so for the past 7 weeks, i've been wondering if i can pay...

i had everything planned out months ago when last sem ended..that i'll work at RGBC and G+P so i'll have more money saved up..that i'll save the $200 that the govt gave to pay..but when sch started, i realised i never calculate in my transport fees and textbook fees..and i duno what's with year 3 books..they're all like $40+... :(

so..the money started depleting..how? i cannot work much cos there's so many projects..and even if i work a lot..can i cover the amount? Praise Daddy God that He gives angels charge over me...He sent me an angel in the form of Weiyi to tell me to apply for bursary! i was always hesitant to apply for bursary cos i thought there was an income requirement to apply..but when i search for info..the requirement was never seen..but who cares right? so under the encouragement of Weiyi, i applied...

i was super happy when i was scheduled for an interview for the bursary..but then..Oh, me of little faith..i told no one except Yuanzhen cos the timing for the interview clashed with the class i'm taking with her..

anyway..on the day of the interview, i was filming the whole morning, then tutorial, then without even time to eat, i went for the interview...there was nothing on my mind except shld i buy something 1st before running to class after the interview? hahah..the only thing i thought of was to pray for favour and i went in. The interview was scheduled to be 30mins, but it was less than 10 mins..and it was full of nonsense answers..hahha..why? cos i was so unconvinced by my own words..i was thinking..God, if i ever get this..it's really You..

i was very convinced that i will not get the bursary, but on thursday at BS, though pastor was talking a lot about the new building, but he was essentially talking about finances..and i know that i know God was working in my life again..(haha..not like He stopped la..but i felt that ma..)

when pastor prayed the closing prayer that Daddy God will bless us so that we can be blessings unto the new building project, i spoke out (not very loudly) that "Daddy God, that bursary is mine." and Daddy God is truly faithful..

today, when i check my ntu mail in the morning, there was only the E-Bill sent out telling me the amt i need to pay..so i was thinking, "haiz..i really didn't get..i need to find plans to solve the problem." so i sms Amber to tell her that i need to collect my last month's pay asap..

but after class today, while i was waiting for Xuelin to finalise our video, i checked my mail and i shouted out loud! hahha..so glad there was no one else in the room..

this was what i read:
"Dear KOO MEI YAN JOANNA
MOE Bursary AY07/08 - $800/-
We are pleased to inform that you have been awarded the above bursary for the academic year............."

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazed! Amazed! Amazed!

i guess it's always in me to feel that i dun deserved to be blessed..
and that i dun deserved to be blessed like i had been..

there's truly no no else like me..
who can be a CEO at prelims and become AAB at actual A levels?
who can have C5 for GP and get into Communication Studies?
who can without applying, get to pay sch fees with her edusave money?
who can go to HM6 fully paid for?
who can now, having all 4 other family members working, yet get a bursary?

though i always doubt and have no faith, Jesus is my faith.
and He made me time and again His testimony of His goodness and His provision..
