200 days

That sounds like quite a lot considering the CFA exam is in 80 days...

Went for a free medical check-up today which threw up some rather interesting results! Never really done anything like this before, so i didn't expect to have to take my height and weight. Really hated doing that in school. They used to waste whole PE lessons taking everyone's measurements and I used to be depressed on those days, because 1. there was no proper PE (which was prob my favourite subject in school) and 2. i hated reaffirming how short and heavy i am. Today, I was instructed to strip down to underwear (which i think they never do in singapore?) but considering all the wedding dress shopping, I'm already quite used to that... and then I had to step on the scales. boo. The funny thing was, the doctor measured me to be 162cm (dont know where the 2cm came from!) and then told me that i was borderline underweight. Never, never in my life was I ever underweight (I guess I'm still not) but that was the incredible news to my ears. haha. this was after this elderly lady in church told me yesterday that I put on weight. It was only the 2nd time I was properly talking to her! love these little old ladies though, they are so funny.

The next funny thing was that she wanted to test my knee-jerk reaction. So she took a hammer, and hit my knee, and then my lower leg moved (isn't that what's supposed to happen anyway?) but she said I was cheating, hahaha. ok to be fair, I knew that she was trying to get a reaction out of me so i must have subconsciously moved my leg when she tapped it. owell.

Anyhow, thank God for general good health. Test results will be back in a week plus, and we'll have the fuller picture then I guess.

Ok i digress. So, time is running out for us. But between now and then, a million uncertainties and things undone.

Am I excited? Fairly.
Prepared? Not really!
Panicking? Soon will be...

I Hear the Words of Love

I hear the words of love,
I gaze upon the blood,
I see the mighty sacrifice,
And I have peace with God.
