thank God for people like carl and kenneth, who've been keeping me updated of the "undercurrents" in class. shall not disclose anything here; i should respect my classmates' privacy.

that said, it's really quite sad to see the path many of my classmates around me are taking. i mean, it's not as if they weren't warned at the start of year, what doing this would bring.

but, perhaps, it maybe exactly because of the warning, that they've done it. after all, what fruit is sweeter than the forbidden one?

my heart cries for those who have fallen into this. this is especially so because i myself am not above this sort of temptation; in fact, the temptation has been so strong in the past, i almost allowed myself to fall into it.

but thanks be to God, who this year opened my eyes to Jesus. this is the first year i've seen Jesus so clearly. and i firmly believe that as the days go by, i will see Jesus more and more clearly, and fall deeper and deeper in love with Him. but this is all possible because He first loved me. what i'm doing is just reciprocating His love.

*if you have no idea what i'm talking about so far, i'm referring to BGR.*

a lot of people think that there's nothing wrong with it. but let me ask you, do you honestly think that it will last? in most cases it doesn't. chances are, yours won't. what then? do you ever talk to each other again? or pretend as if you never met?

people say that "it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all". i say "fall in love with Jesus and you'll never have to lose that love." wow. thank God for that.

i also know that the longer i wait, the better the ending will be, because the promise will definitely come true. =)
