Yew….! You again, SAM!

Today is definitely an exciting day.

Today is the day the man for my form teacher, Ms Dorothea Lim is revealed! Haha…

They are married today!!!

And all the ACJC students that know her are invited to witness her wedding, like 2SA1, 2SC3, 2AD4 and Student’s Councilors.

I have to tell you some info about my teacher to explain why am I soooo….excited today. Haha..

She was introduced to us about the middle of last year. My first Gp teacher was going to study further and hence God had brought Ms Dorothea Lim to our class. Well, she is a pretty lady that one of my friends keeps praising her of her look. He got excited whenever reaching her period, even though her period was what most of the students dreaded of(because it is Gp, you know, Gp..argh..). She is very nice to talk to. She thinks that moral values are very important. She thinks that at this age, we should do things responsibly. That makes her a bit old? I dunno, but I share the same opinion with her. I feel comfortable talking to her and ask for advices. She has taught me a lot in Gp and in fact my Gp was imrpoving under her guidance.

This year, my form teacher, again left for further stdies in NUS. So, she became our form teacher. She has been given us little gifts to encourage us in super hectic J2 years. The consultation session with her has benefitted me in the ways of looking at world issues. In a nutshell, she’s a teacher whom I love. She seldom put on make up, so I was imagining that when she put on make up, she will be a stunning beauty. By imagining how beautiful she is, I got very excited. Haha…

So, today, I witness her wedding. At first I meet up with my classmates in Douby Ghaut MRT, sign the card which will be given to her, then walk to the Weasley Church. On the way, we see other class’s students, I see Tian Boon. Then, we are outside the church where I see there are somemore AC students, the Student’s Councilors and guests in front of the register table. We go in after a few minutes later only to find ourselves having no place to sit. So, we have no choice but to sit seperately and away from the aisle.

I get very excited you know. Haha.. I get even more excited when I see my lovely teacher standing at the back of the church with her friends helping her putting her gown nicely. She is there with her father, haha.. Oh man, imagine myself with my father standing over there, waiting to walk to my husband’s side.. Gosh.. I think I would be very nervous, haha..

Then we sing praise to our all mighty God, "In Christ Alone" and "Reaching For You". Somehow I feel that these two songs are close to my heart.

"In Christ Alone"

In Christ alone will I glory / Though I could pride myself in battles won / For I’ve been blessed beyond measure / And by His strength alone I overcome / Oh I could stop and count successes / Like diamonds in my hands / But those trophies could not equal / To the grace by which I stand / In Christ alone I place my trust / And find my glory in the power of the cross / In every victory let it be said of me / My source of strength / My source of hope / Is Christ alone

How true it is, especially in my JC life. My results are His blessings, my survival is due to His strength.

Next is scripture reading. It is taken from Matthew 6:21 - "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also". So the Caplain asks my teacher and her husband, "What is the thing that make you treasure her/him?" The husband answers, "She completes me." and my teacher said, "He allows me to complete him." Isn’t that sweet, oh my, I feel really happy for them.

Then the Chaplain talks about how they met each other an how they fell in love with each other. Also, how he proposed. Haha… he was romantic you know.. He was trying to propose to her when they were scuba-diving. Yet, the first attempt failed. Then, I do not know le, haha.. cz the Chaplain never continues the story.

Then, she talks something I feel is very meaningful. She says that a couple should vow to each other that they will honour each other. She mentions the action of washing feet. This action shows that you honour the person whom you honour, like Jesus honours His deciples. It can symbolise many things, like forgiveness. She says that no matter how dirty the feet are, you still wash them, shows that you forgive the person. She also says that God brings my teacher to her husband so that he will safeguard her heart, likewise my teacher has to keep her husband’s heart safely. Wonderful. isn’t it?

Haha.. then you know la, the "Yes, I do" thing, exchange ring, promise… bla bla bla.. One thing wrth mention is the lighting of the candle. It symbolises long-lasting.

During thanksgiving, one thing very funny is that the groom says it is the time to terrorise parents from both sides as they thank them. They sing a song. They sing a song written by a parent to his child. Ahhh… so sweet, haha…

Haih, I hope I’ll get married soon one day, haha… but who can stand my craziness, I wonder?
