Haha oh I'm sooooooooo glad that Chinese Orals is over!!! I haven't been blogging was because of that! Too busy practising oral. It was quite a traumatic experience, which i don't want to go through again any time soon. I was really nervous because any topic could come out and what i was most afraid of was that I would not understand the qn or that i do understand the qn but don't really know how to answer! The Lord has really been with me today as i had my oral. This verse came to me as I was trying to prepare the night before but to no avail. It gave me comfort and He is indeed my Rock, my Protector, my Friend, my Father and many more...!

Matthew 6:33-34 "But seek first His Kingdom and His Righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough troubles of its own."

Well i'm just real thankful that it's over. My class was the first class and since we only have 19 students, we all finished today! So none of us have to do it tomorrow! Thank goodness!!! :) *Phew* I think it is really scary to be the first and to be the last. It's like being the guinea pig and being the last, the examinators are usually quite impatient to get it over and done with. So yup, at least i'm just in the middle. ;)

Currently for CME my group has been researching on the disabled but concentrating particularly on the blind and there are really a lot of famous blind people. Like musician, Ray Charles. Helen Keller who was not only blind but deaf as well and how they overcame their obstacles. I find it really touching and very inspiring and personally I think we have much to learn from them.

No Other Name

No other name, but the name of Jesus
No other name, but the name of the Lord
No other name, but the name of Jesus
He's worthy of glory
And worthy of honour
And worthy of power and all praise

His name is exalted far above the earth
His name is high above the heavens
His name is exalted far above the earth
Give glory and honour and praise unto His name

Haha, I'm really glad that Wednesday is a holiday for my school. My school did well for preforming arts and received all golds! :) Very impressive isn't it? ;-) Chinese oral is coming soon!! I'm not even prepared for it...well not really anyway. It's either this thursday or next wk and my class is going first (since we're the smallest)! *glup!* I just hope that my paper passes i know that i won't get a very good pass but i'm hoping to do well for my oral and listening so that it can pull my grades up for the paper! *crosses my fingers*

My sis is sooooo taken with her boyfriend and right now, they're dancing salsa upstairs! It's still quite hard to believe that she's in a relationship. Haha well i can't wait for her to introduce him to our extended family. hmmm... I wonder what their reactions would be like.... kinda curious.

Heart of Worship

When the music fades
All is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring that's of worth
That will bless Your heart

I'll bring You more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what You have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart

I'm coming back to the heart of worship
When it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus

King of endless worth
No one could express
How much You deserve
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is Yours
Every single breath

YAHOO!!!! I'm back from my 3 day trip to Malaysia!!! :):):):) It's been quite awhile since I last visited and wow, it has really changed! I love Times Square! Especially all the rides, especially the roller-coaster! ;) I love to sit on them. My sis and I went for every ride and I think the really cool ones were the rides that went upside down! At first you'd think it's scary but after a while u get used to it. It really was fun! Only that my sis ended up having a bit of a stomach problem so we didn't get to sit on the roller-coaster for the last time, but oh well, had to think of her condition :p When it comes to roller-coaster rides, my bro can be quite a coward in a sense that he doesn't want to sit on them and go upside down. He only sat on the rides which were pretty harmless, but that's not where the fun part is! The shops there were great, my sis and i bought lots of clothes and man, I haven't been that energetic for quite sometime. The hotel there was good including the facilities, thou my sis and i didn't get to use the suana as in was under repair but the spa was good, the gym was good and the swimming pool too! My legs are aching again coz i went to do a bit of weights and now it's kinda hurting. :$ The food there was superb! My family and I really ate a lot! I think I put on like 1kg due to the eating. The bus ride home was really very enjoyable! Had own tv screen to watch movies, play games, listen to music and even a massage chair, thou i didn't really use the massage chair. Everything was totally fantastic, I definitely want to go back, but the qn is when....

Well good things must always come to an end. Tomorrow school starts again. Back to lessons, studies and probably lack of sleep.....well hopefully not. *grinz* It's quite hard to believe that time flies really fast. A mnth is over. I'm still trying to get over my new hairstyle. Especially in the morning when it stands up like a lion's hair, but other than that....i think ittt's okkk.....hm....

We Fall Down

We fall down
We lay our crowns
At the feet of Jesus
The greatness of mercy and love
At the feet of Jesus

And we cry, "holy, holy, holy"
And we cry, "holy, holy, holy"
And we cry, "holy, holy, holy"
Is the lamb

Today has been a bit hectic, running all over the place. First to get bks for the trip, then went to open new bank accs. then went home to rest for a while before going tuition. After that went to play badminton. :) My aunt saw my new haircut and commented that it made me look brighter...whatever that means. Probably more alert and cleaner?? I don't know, so long as she doesn't refer to me as cute i'm fine with that! My muscles are aching again and i think i pulled my thigh muscle coz now it's quite painful for me, but oh well, used to it. I just hope that it goes away fast!

I can't believe that sch is starting again! Four wks of holiday is definitely not enough and time really passes by so fast that u don't really notice. In like three mnths time prelims will be starting :$ and i'm not sure if i'm really prepared for it. I don't have enough discipline to really sit down and study unless i feel pressurised, other than that my mind would wander away and i'd fine that i can't sit still for long. It's that bad!

He is My Everything

He is my everything, He is my all
He is my everything, both great and small
He gave His life for me
Made everything new
He is my everything
Now how about you

Like honey in the rock,
Sweet honey in the rock
For He taste like honey in the rock
So taste and see that the Lord is good
For He taste like honey in the rock.

I can't believe it. I really have to try and get used to my new look. Went to the hair dresser today and decided to cut my hair short. It has been a very very long long time since i last had short hair....i think when i was abt 7 yrs old or probably younger that was the last time. I can't decide if i look nicer in long hair or short hair. When my bro first saw it he said "yuck" but then again it's his typical response. Brothers are just like that ;) and thank goodness i have one coz it makes a lot of difference without having one! My sister's reaction was totally different thou, at first when she saw me she thought i was a guest and then she insulted me by saying "cute"!!! I m not cute nor do i like to be referred to as cute coz it means ugly but adorable and i m certainly not ugly but just average looking. haha oh well gotta get used to it and have to get used to playing badminton with short hair too, probably have to start wearing a hairband. :$

I don't really like going online now. It's really different coz i expect to talk to someone but then i realise each time that it's no longer gonna happen. So i don't have the urge to go online anymore. Something really gd happened today! Not to me but to my sis and I'm really happy for her! She now officially has a boyfriend!!!! :):):):) and i think that he's suitable for her. They are compatible. *grinz* Now my two siblings are in a relationship :) My mum or rather parents are really funny. They keep calling my sis boyfriend, "that boy", "this boy" and i think when they accept him will be when they start calling him by his name. ;) Lots of things have really been happening and it's quite surprising by the speed of it.

We Will Make a Difference

Won't You Lord, take a look at our hands.
Everything we have use it for Your plan.
Won't You Lord, take a look at our hearts.
Mould it, refine it
As You set us apart.

We want to run to the altar
And catch the fire
To stand in the gap between the living and the dead
Give us a heart of compassion
For a world without vision
We will make a difference
Bringing hope to our land.

YAH! It has really been a wonderful, glorious day!!! :):):) My dad took the whole week off and since he was free he took my bro and me out for lunch! (Japanese, yum It's my most fav food) I can eat loads when it comes to Japanese especially when you can just take what u want. Spent $66+ today for the three of us, u could say that i really ate like there was no tmr and after that i could barely stand up straight. ;) Thou it can't compare to the last time my dad and i went alone. Both of us ate $50+ worth of money *grinz*

I'm real happy that my sis is back home, just came back from the airport and she hasn't changed much except that her chinese has improved a bit. I've really missed her a lot!! The Lord was really with the team, guiding them all the way and providing for their needs. It was amazing hearing her stories. Truly amazing. I also managed to convince my dad to go play badminton with me again tmr morning. Surprising to me, coz he doesn't really exercise much unless there was a dinner which he knows he'd eat a lot then he'll exercise.

My family is back as a whole again! Everyone's in after so many months. When I saw my bro yesterday his hair was long and the umbrella shape was back again. ;) Everything's normal I just hope it stays that way. *sigh* My grandparents are going back to their own house tmr, I wish they won't go, especially now that their grandchildren are back home. I know that if they go home, i won't be seeing them till church and even if i call to say goodnight it won't be the same saying goodnight to them face to face.

You Are Here

You are here among us as we gathered in Your Name.
We can feel Your presence in this place.
You are here among us.
You are enthroned upon Your praise.
You are here, here to heal and here to save.

You are here in our midst.
How we've waited for moments like this.
Have Your way in this place.
Holy Spirit come do as you wish.
We are changed as You move in our midst.

It has been quite an eventful week. Watched Batman on the opening day, watched Mr and Mrs Smith now i can't wait to watch Fantastic 4 thou it's not even out yet. ;) Well, back to playing badminton again, thank goodness for that. I just realised how out of touch i was in the game having not played for more than a month. I did my own foot work on Saturday night...it was quite a last minute decision especially since we (my dad and i) couldn't find a court to play, until i came upon an empty court thru the internet. I couldn't smash, i couldn't do a dropshot...well i did but most of the time it didn't cross the net but at least i could still lob and do netting plus pushing, so i wasn't so bad until i did footwork! That was the worst part and that was what caused my body to ache...a lot! At least i'm not the only one who is hurting, my dad too! He hasn't really been exercising, so when we played he kinda hard to run a lot, so did i actually. Then went training today, well at least today it wasn't that bad thou i could barely run but i managed to ignore my pains but it only intensified after the training. I was more able to play better, could smash, do a dropshot and even run! considering the aches in my body.

I'm really happy, my bro is coming back home tmr! Then after that my sis is coming home...on tuesday! Then we're all going to Malaysia! I just hope that i won't eat so much over there but exercise more. Hopefully it'd be a holiday to look forward to. :)

Breathe on Me

Breathe on me Breath of God
Love and life that makes me free
Breath on me Breath of God
Fan the flame within me

Teach my heart, Heal my soul
Speak the mind that in Christ we know
Take me to Your sanctuary
Breathe on me

Speak to me Voice of God
Soft and still inside my heart
Speak to me Word of God
Comfort, heal, restore with love

Right now i feel as if my emotions are on the brink and i can't seem to control them. *sigh* it's not depression juz something more personal and i don't think i even want to talk abt it. I feel that everything's a mess, like, my whole life is in a mess and whatever i do i can't seem to right it. Everything's changed, i feel as if i've changed vastly and i'm not even sure if its a change into being a better person or someone worse......Sometimes i just feel that it's so much easier to run away from the problems and just leave it hanging there, to hide from the cruel world and make sure that none can see or even spot me or to even retreat into my imaginary world where everything is fine.

I know though, that being a person no matter how young or old, everyone has their own responsibilities and we can't run from them but have to face it mustering all the courage we have. I just pray that I can find that strength in my Father and give unto Him all my worries and troubles and know that He will sustain me. I just pray that I won't always be doing the talking but I want to learn to hear whatever He has to say to me, that i would be able to walk in His image and be able to fulfill the purpose He has in me. I don't want to run nor hide, because i'd only feel weary but rather face my problems with my Father beside me knowing that no matter what happens, no matter what wrongs i have done, He'll never forsake me. :)

Empower Me

Nobody knows how weak I am,
Better than You;
Nobody sees all of my needs,
better than You.
And nobody has the power to change me,
From what I was born to be.
Jesus be strong in my weakness,
Empower me!

Empower me, like a rushing river
Flowing to the sea.
Lord, send Your Holy Spirit
Flowing now through me.
Till I'm living as Your child,
Victorious and free,
Send the power of Your love,
Empower me.

Nobody's eyes see through my soul,
Better than Yours;
Nobody's love can make me whole,
No one but Yours.
And nobody has the power to lift me,
To reach for eternity.
Jesus break through all my defences,
Empower me.

Today....hm....today i won't really say that it was exciting but very very pleasant. The weather was pretty nice and windy....at night but in the morning it was raining cats and dogs! So when i went to church it was kinda cold and i didn't have a jacket with me thou i seldom wear one, coz i figured since i'm quite "thick skinned" i won't need one. Church today was pretty boring, couldn't really follow what the pastor was trying to get at, didn't know what his point really was, so i kinda started stoning....or well day dreaming perhaps, with all my wild imaginations.

I really miss the times when my sis and i would stay up late discussing what we should write for our stories and everytime we went overseas we would always come up with different types of stories, now we spend less time together cause she's always so busy. There were the times when we'd stay up late together to watch t.v or talk abt our day's event and the next morning we would always feel drowsy cause we usually spend the whole night talking. haha oh well, i miss those times, hopefully that i'll still be able to be close to her even when she goes to uni coz i know she'll be busy with lots of projects and things like that. I received sad news today. My teacher's father just passed away this morning :( I'll be going to the wake tomorrow...hopefully...or probably on tuesday night with my parents. It's really sad, i can still remember the first time when i went to a funeral, it was the death of my grandfather on my dad's side and i was abt five years old then, but yeah i can still remember that day very clearly as if it just occurred yesterday.

I should stop talking abt sad stories now.....Went to dinner with my family and just came home, i really piged out. I drank a bit of my dad's soup and ate his bread, because the soup was served in a bread and it was kinda huge. Then after that had vegetables....i mean i couldn't very well eat meat and no veggie so my mum ordered some + she gave two pieces of her pork ribs, she really has a small appetite. I think i ate twice the amt that she ate. I had a Seah Street Burger it was really really super gd!! It was big and they gave a lot of fries and i had some of my mum's potato wedges and i finished everything except that i left a few pieces of fries left. ;p so yup, u could say that i was really hungry, usually i'll only eat this much for Japanese... well more than that actually other than that i eat much less. I really need to exercise, i've just been eating, sleeping,, eating, sleeping and the pattern just continues, this friday i'm definitely have to go to play badminton with my dad's friends! (Then can lose some weight) *grinz*

Our God is an Awesome God!

Our God is an awesome God,
He reigns from heaven above,
With wisdom, power and love,
Our God is an awesome God!

King of Kings

King of Kings and Lord of Lords
Glory, Hallelujah!

Jesus, Prince of Peace
Glory, Hallelujah!

Today was a great and joyous day for me!!! :):):):) Got to talk to my friend for over five hours! Really amazing cause i've never talked that long to my friends before nor stayed on msn so long just to chat. It really helps me relax and distracts me from my work so i won't feel so stressed. I find myself on the computer for a long time, not just to chat but to do my notes for my different subjects and i feel as if my eyes are just tiring out. I guess when my brother comes home, i won't get to be on the computer much unless i do my work on the computer in my parents room but knowing my brother, when he comes home, he'll be meeting all his NS friends and still have to go back to NS to finish his two months....or something like that. Anyway, can't wait to see his gf again, though she's busy right now with all the medical assignments. She's really nice and sweet, i guess you could say that my brother is lucky to know her.

The day is ending soon and i'm really tired, ate durians (yum!) with my parents just a while ago after dinner, it was really delicious, very sweet and had lots of meat with a very tiny seed, so now my fingers smell a bit like durian but that's all right, i love the smell! My brother is very funny, he doesn't like eating durians but likes to eat durian puffs, well for me i like to eat both, because both taste just as good! *grinz* I hope that tomorrow would be just as good a day as today and maybe even better at least i get to go to church. I find that going to church once a week isn't good enough for me, because i really want to hear God's words and most of the times i have problems trying to draw connections from the Old Testaments to the New Testaments.

I Want to be Where You Are

I just want to be where You are,
Dwelling daily in Your presence;
I don't want to worship from afar;
Draw me near to where You are.
I just want to be where You are,
In Your dwelling place forever;
Take me to the place where You are,
I just want to be with You.

I want to be where You are, dwelling in Your presence,
Feasting at Your table, surrounded by Your glory;
In Your presence that's where I always want to be.
I just want to be, I just want to be with You.

Bridge:
O my God, You are my strength and my song,
And when I'm in Your presence
Though I'm weak You're always strong

I really enjoyed myself today. :) Though I didn't do much except go tuition and watch movie! :p Madagascar was really funny. I mean it's probably not as good as Finding Nemo but still it has its on qualities and it was great! I really the four of them (juz a bunch of panzies) ;) haha. It really speaks about friendship in many different ways put into quite a few different perceptives and i enjoyed it tremendously! :):):) Well, the next movie...actually quite a few movies, i'm really looking forward to Batman Begins (Liam Neeson, he's a really gd actor), Mr and Mrs Smith (action looks really cool) and War of the Worlds.

*sigh* still have one more week of school to go through before i have one week to myself......sort of. Mum wants me to go somewhere for a short while to relax but the thing is i'm not so sure if i can afford the time. I'm a bit behind my schedule with homework not finished. I dunno, I always find myself more stressed during the holidays then the school days, quite ironic but still true all the same. I mean, holidays are meant to give you time to catch up on other things and then you find yourself caught up in a lot of other things..... I just really can't wait till the end of the year, when everything is over but i know. Suffer now and then can enjoy later....much much later. Still have about six mnths more before the real holiday starts so have to work for it. I'm not really complaining thou, coz i know the reward is better than what i suffer so i believe it's worth it. :)

Awesome in this Place

I come into Your presence
Pass the gates of praise
Into Your sanctuary
Til we're standing face to face
I look upon Your countenance
I see the glory of Your Holy face
I can only bow down and say...

You are awesome in this place, Mighty God
You are awesome in this place, Abba Father
You are worthy of all praise
To You our lives we raise
You are awesome in this place, Mighty God

Today was a great day! It really was amazing, especially at night!!! :):):):):) Went to my sister's dedication, for parents to know what's gonna happen in the mission trip and to pray for the mission troopers, the presence of Lord could really be felt, especially during the time of worship and prayer. It was so powerful and I just felt this peace and comfort within me, my longing is to go where God wants me to go, to serve Him with my whole being. I'm just glad that He has chosen my sister to go to China and be a witness as well as to minister there and I believe that this is a one time experience which will really touch and be embedded in my sister's memory. Though I'm not going with her physically, I know that my spirit will be with her and share her joy. I feel that I'm meant to do something different, I don't know I just know that the Lord has an assignment for me and I cannot stray away from it. One of my church leaders told me that when he was praying for me and it's stayed in my mind eversince. All I know is that whatever and wherever the Lord wants me to do or go I'll will go, to deny oneself and pick up the Cross to follow Him. He really is an amazing Father, one who keeps His promises and He reveals Himself in many different ways. He heals the blind, the sick, the lame and nothing deterrs Him. All things are possible through Him, the Father.

I hope though, at the end of the year, after my o levels that i'd be able to focus on serving the Father in different ways and probably be able to go on a mission trip. I'll leave that to my Father to guide me. Oh well....tomorrow morning I have tuition then after that my aunt might take me to go watch a movie in the afternoon. I hope it's still on, coz i need to get out of the house for awhile.

Above All

Above all powers, above all kings
Above all nature and all created things
Above all wisdom and all the ways of man
You were here before the world began

Above all kingdoms, above all thrones
Above all wonders the world has ever known
Above all wealth and treasure of the earth
There's no way to measure what You're worth

Crucified laid behind the stone
You lived to die rejected and alone
Like a rose trampled on the ground
You took the fall and thought of me

Above all

I feel really terrible! My grandfather's operation was today not tomorrow! I got it all wrong, if only I remembered it correctly I would have gone to him. :( I only remembered about it when I came home and saw his left eye covered. I really thought it was tomorrow, coz if it was I would have gone with my grandparents to the hospital and waited with my grandmother, especially since I had no school tomorrow. Apparently it wasn't the case due to my fault! *sigh* sometimes I really forget that they're my only grandparents left and they are getting old though they don't look it. I mean my grandfather is 84 yrs old but he seriously doesn't look it and my grandma just turned eighty, yet they still travel around by bus. I know that I have to spend more time with them especially since it's the holidays, the least I could do is give them some of my time just as they spare some of their time for me. I really miss the good old days, when I used to go up to my grandparents room and listen to them talk about S'pore when it was during the Japanese Occupation. My grandma would always tell me stories about her younger days before she met my grandpa and stories when my mum and aunties were at a young age. We used to play cards, though it was more fun when my brother and sister join in. The more the merrier! :)

No more lectures this whole week! Yippee! The lectures next wk is dedicated to english only, so it's not too bad. Today, managed to finish the whole text of human geography, so now all that's left is just to do the Tys questions. I can't wait to watch Mr and Mrs Smith, it looks really cool with all the action. My aunt is probably taking me to go watch Madagascar on Friday. Heard it was really funneee. :D

Here I Am To Worship

Light of the World
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes, let me see
Beauty that made
This heart adore you
Hope of a life spent with You

Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love's sake, became poor

BRIDGE
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sins upon that Cross

CALL
Call upon the name of the Lord
And be saved

I'm starting to find myself really coped up at home and having no time at all to go out with friends and enjoy. I kinda dislike this part of the holidays, especially since it's supposed to be the holidays, but it doesn't seem like one. Not with all those extra lessons in school. I'm already planning the first thing i should do when i recover from my illness and i think i know. I'll probably start going back to badminton, it's been a month?? or two since i last played and i miss it a lot. I miss running too!! Well, all that has to wait till I get well and i hope it's sooner than later coz it's almost been a week and almost two weeks of my holidays are gone! Time flys very fast when you are busy.

I find the Almighty God's power really amazing and indeed He works in wonderous ways. It comes to you unexpectedly and sometimes He speaks to us indirectly though we know that it is He who is speaking and all we have to do is to listen, but to listen not just with our ears but with our heart and our whole being. I'm really glad that the Holy Spirit has touched my sister's heart and I know that when she goes for the mission trip she will be ready to serve the Lord. She'll be going to China and her group is going to visit this village in the forest which is a three hr hike up the mountain. I just pray that it will be an experience for her that would change her life, but then again, her life was never the same when she got to really love God with all her heart, soul and mind. I mean, just because you're born a Christian, it doesn't necessarily mean that you love God, it also doesn't necessarily mean that you'll go up to Heaven. The will be a time, when our hearts are touched and we feel the presence of the Lord that we know it is truly Him who we feel.

I knew God. I knew Him eversince I was old enough to understand who He is, but I won't say I fully understood Him, i mean i knew that I called Him the Almighty God and praised Him for His mercy and grace but that was it. I would say though, I went through an experience that really touched my heart and felt that He was with me, every step of the way. It was that experience that really brought me close to Christ and loving Him with all my heart, soul, mind. It's different to just know God and read His word compared to feeling His presence and having an encounter with Him. I had to go through a laser operation when I was 11 years old. It was at the end of the year and my doctor wanted to get it done before my PSLE. It was a heart operation mind you and I was old enough to understand the dangers it involved. So I prayed and my prayers were answered! Praise God! He was with me every step of the way. I know because I could feel His presence in the operating room. I was asleep but I knew that His peace was surrounding me and I had nothing to fear, especially since my God is for me! Until this day, I never had a problem with my heart anymore and it was all God's doing. :)

The River is Here

Down the mountain
The River Flows
And it brings refreshing
Wherever it goes
Through the valleys
And over the fields
The River is rushing
And the River is here

The river of God
Sets our feet to dancing
The river of God
Fills our hearts with cheer
The river of God
Fills our mouth with laughter
And we rejoice for the river is here

The river of God
Is teeming with life
And all who touch it
Can be revived
And all who linger
On this river's shore
Will come back thirsting
For more of the Lord

It was quite funny today. Went back to school today for biology and geography lessons. It was quite interesting cause for biology, we learnt about the effects of human on the ecosystem and it can be quite tragic. Especially with the incident that took place in Japan and England. I don't think I want to go into details of the incidents. Saw some photos and it's now stuck on my mind! I felt really sorry for them. For the first time during the holidays so far, all eight girls from my class turned up for biology! It's pretty amazing, considering the fact that on Friday only three girls turned up for biology including one very faithful bio rep, thou i can't say for the other one ;) The thing is thou, I'm feeling kinda guilty now, coz on Thursday, when I went to school, I was pretty sick and I think I passed it to three of my friends :$ Today they were a bit sick, thou one was quite serious. She has asthma and had breathing difficulty so had to be sent to the hospital! What I found funny thou, was she could still take a picture of herself in the hospital with the oxygen mask. *sigh* I don't really want this yr to end especially since it's going to be my last yr in the same school for 10yrs. Some have been my friends ever since Primary one and I'm not so sure if school would be the same without them! I know for sure that I'm going to miss my friends' lame jokes, but I know, life still has to go on, but sometimes I really wish that I could stop time for a moment and just savour that few hrs because it still makes a difference...

Oh well, I know that's something which won't happen in this life time. My sis has gone for boot camp :( and will only be coming home this Thursday then after that she'll be going off to China. I'm gonna miss her a lot, especially since we're very close to one another. We tell each other everything and keep nothing hidden, it's quite hard to find such a good sister relationship nowadays thou, but I know I'm just really blessed to have a sister like her! ;)

Once Again

Jesus Christ, I think upon Your sacrifice
You become nothing, poured out to death
Many times I've wondered at Your gift of life
And I'm in that place once again
I'm in that place once again

And once again I look upon the cross
Where You died
I'm humbled by Your mercy
And I'm broken inside
Once again I thank You
Once again I pour out my life

Now You are exalted to the highest place
King of the heavens
Where one day I'll bow
But for now I marvel at this saving grace
And I'm full of praise once again
I'm full of praise once again

Thank You for the cross
Thank You for the cross
Thank You for the cross, my Friend.

The weekend is finally coming to an end only to be taken over by the new day of the week! Oh well, parents are coming home tonight. I kinda missed them coz the house has been quite quiet without my parents. :) Tmr there's sch still and it's probably gonna last for two more weeks but that's ok, i could live with it. Time is really flying fast, very soon 6 months would be gone and then prelims would come then after that it gets even better! Coz it would be my O level. I look at it now i find myself thinking that there is still lots of time but i know better than that, but sometimes it gets kinda hard to make urself study. :p

Anyway, my flu is getting better thank goodness! Don't really want to go to school with a hoarse voice, but it's getting better too, so i need not worry :)

I Feel Like I'm Falling

Standing tall in this wide space
Getting lost in Your embrace
I see a fire burning brighter
It's calling me to catch the flame

I feel like I'm falling
Over and over in love with You
It's not just a feeling
But I know that He is real
I feel like I'm falling
Into the arms of the Mighty God
It's not just a feeling
But I know that He is real

You're drawing me closer to Your side
It's the safest place I know where to hide
With one glance You captured my heart
You speak Your words and set me apart
I feel like I'm falling
Falling into the arms of love

Today was quite boring. Didn't go to sch coz my mum wanted me to rest :) Well I didn't do very much today including not studying ;) You could say I was like a pig, sleep first then eat then sleep on the computer chatting and then going back to sleep-but not b4 i read.

*sigh* my mum wants me to do a schedule for my studies, but the thing is i think that even if i have it i don't follow it. Believe me, i've tried it countless of times. I mean life is quite spontaneous, there are lots of things that come up and in the end u find that u'r always behind what u'r meant to study, so i find it quite hard to follow. I will still do it nonetheless juz incase i decide to follow it, but i seriously doubt it. It's very irritating when u'r privacy's been invaded!!! I tend to stay up longer now wanting to talk to my friend. You could say it's my one enjoyment :) Oh yah! My parents are going to Malaysia tmr!! I have the whole day to myself -_- including sunday thou they'd be back on Sunday night, but still-It's worth it!! Sometimes i find myself to cropped up with my mum around but that's only when i feel cropped up other than that i don't mind, suffice to say that i enjoy her company.

A-maths mock test today wasn't as bad as I expected it to be even thou i didn't really study. I'm not so sure if i'd be able to get my A1 though coz i forgot a number of things. :( Today quite funny coz eight of my friends including me didn't take bio and out of the eight, two didn't come. Anyway, eight of us don't take chemistry so we had abt 4hrs break b4 biology started. Four of us went out for lunch...arh... i mean branch and ate McDonalds while other students were having chem. Haha. We could actually watch a movie and still have enough time to spare...more than enough time! We spent most of time talking thou, abt OBS. Quite fun, planning to go for the 21 days ;) Lets see if i can make it for 21days and still survive :D Tmr have amaths lesson then after that another 4hrs break b4 bio starts again. I think my friends are planning to watch a movie but i'm not going with them. :( Not even going to sch.-_-

Am still sick, today had fever but I'm quite thankful that my fever is gone now. Hopefully it doesn't come back. Can't stand being sick!! *sigh* Juz came back from the doctor and he gave me antibiotics coz my flam is yellow. I'm gonna be drowsy soon coz the medicine for my nose causes drowsiness. At least I have tmr off, so i can sleep and rest.. it's probably what my body needs anyway. I juz pray that this flu would go away soon.

All In All

You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord to give up, I'd be a fool
You are my all in all

Jesus, Lamb of God, worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God, worthy is Your name

Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising again, I bless Your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down, You pick me up
When I am dry, You fill my cup
You are my all in all

*sigh* I should have taken proper care of my health. Now i'm sick. Got a bad running nose and bad sore-throat. I had emaths lecture and mock exam today and my friend said that she kept hearing the 'trumpet' noise again. Well, it's not my fault! I mean, it's probably due to lack of sleep or water or something. Coz yesterday i didn't drink much water, was out in the sun for quite sometime. So i'm not sure what it was. :( I juz don't want to get a cough, it's something i really dislike!!!! And the other thing is that I can't get sick not now during the holidays, have extra lessons and I need to be there to learn new things or i'd be behind the rest and I can't afford that. No i can't, not this yr anyway.

Oh, well anyway, my dad received two free star wars tickets!!!! YAH! My second time watching without having to pay a single cent. ;) My sis doesn't want to watch coz she says it's not really gd, so i'm going with my friend who's been longing to go! The plot is actually quite nice especially since it ties in from episode 2 and episode 4. I have yet to watch the special addition for episode 6 though. It seems that chewbacca....(did i spell him correctly?) did saving Han and Leia's youngest child. So yeah, have to find out if it really happened. :p

Yesterday my friend told me that quite recently....i think, the whole group were betting (no money involved or anything, juz out of curiosity) whether or not I have a boyfriend and if i'd actually tell them! They never told me that nor do i look like someone who'd have one, but they say the opposite....I'm not sure if i'd should feel flattered though. Well anyway they were wrong abt me having a boyfriend coz i don't have one and i'm not sure if i intend to have one until I'm older. I'll juz leave that part to God.
