Saturday was awesome.
Old revelation but it was a reminder that God is mighty to save.
haha allusion to mandy's blog. :)
k. time for bed and dreams about crispy, psycho, lil mel, pumblechook and assorted fish.
good night.
tomorrow will be a better day.
by faith.
heh. blooey. snowflakes and crystals.

If my God is for me, who can be against me.

whee. founder's day tomorrow. study group tomorrow. old friends. good memories. not so good memories. :)
being a 10 year MG girl really does set you apart from others. i suppose it's the way we've been brought up over there. dont' know how manda can hate that place. but i guess staying there for 10 years does get boring.
oh well. throat's getting scratchier as the days go by and i've got a MASSIVE headache. but otherwise. everything's peachy. and no, i'm not being sarcastic. :)
lol. isn't it strange how you can wind up not talking to a person for like three years and then just suddenly make up and everything's fine again. hm. three years ago i thought i'd never ever speak a word to him again. and now we're meeting on monday. HAHA. too hilarious.
and i can't believe evan said that about derek. haha...i'll never look at derek the same way again. sorry.
hey tw! hope you're feeling a lot a lot a lot better. :D take care and dont' fret! things will turn out ok. just hang in there. cya on friday.

*cough*. sick. haha. think i caught it from my dad. which is why i'm blogging at 12 pm.

anyways.

the other day i was just mooching around in school waiting for mel to get outta chinese class when one of my classmates passed by and asked if i was ok. well yea. i was in an 'ok' mood, though i suppose i looked rather tired and grumpy. so i gave her this puzzled look. then she told me that i always look so sad.

hm. that got me thinking.

you know, maybe i felt that being uhappy was normal because i've been experiencing that for so long. but then. i mean. why should i be sad? why should i be bogged down with things that God has already promised to take care of for me? and besides what would be the difference between me and those not saved if i can't even rejoice in the day my God has made. i believe in all the promises that He has made for me. And so i shouldn't needlessly worry about my life or what I AM going to do about it. i dont' dictate my life anyways.

it isn't a good testimony to walk around looking so forlorn.

so yes. i have come to a decision that i shall be happy.
isn't it strange how things suddenly hit you? like you never have heart knowledge about the simplest things because you just go on blindly in life, so intent on unimportant things.
i don't have a reason to be upset or unhappy.


Shine for You
Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you

One thing I know
Is that you've changed my life
I give you my all
All you are is good
Give you my heart
God it's only you I seek
Give you my praise
'Cause I believe in you

Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you, O God

All that I know
Is that you've changed my life
I give you my all
And all you are is good
Carry the lost
Make my prayer in this life real
Carry my cross
Hold on 'til I see you

Look across the world
And let us shine for you, Lord
The whole world is yours
And I want to live for you, O God

And I want to live
I want to love you more
I want to be used
Father in all of the world
May your word be heard
May it stay on my lips
To live what I speak
Until your kingdom come

hey hey! shall start this post with God's promises since i promised TW some. hope this encourages you!

God said:
We will be the head and not the tail
Above and not beneath
Always in front and never behind
Blessed in our coming in and going forth
We are not to worry, for He will fight for us
He will show Himself strong on our behalf
If He is for us, who can be against us?
If He willingly gave his only begotten Son, what more will he not give to us?
He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above all that we can ask for.
He will rescue those who love Him
He will be with them in times of trouble.
He protects the bones of the righteous; not one of them is broken.

Amen. :)

Well. After venting all that angst i feel a lot better. Tomorrow will be a brighter day.

Nuts. I have this urge to buy bright pink ribbons and tie them on pretty blue pastel boxes.
Folding multi-coloured stars and placing them in a glass jar.
Watch shooting stars.
Cover the house with flower petals.
Bake cookies with coloured M&Ms.
Paint my room in pink, gold and blue. :p
Hibernate for a day.

Sigh. i can dream, can't i.

When I Dream
I could have a mansion that is higher than the trees
I could have all the gifts I want and never ask please
I could fly to Paris, oh, it's at my beck and call
Why do I go through life with nothing at all?
But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true

is everything gone just like that? is it my fault? i don't really understand. i don't know if it's just me being paranoid but i can't help but feel they're all giving me the cold shoulder.
sigh.
i didn't want this to happen either. so yea.
crabsticks.
wish we could all just be good friends. like before. then things wouldn't have gotten like that.

i'm sorry.

if it hurts for you.

it hurts me to hurt you.

nuts nuts nuts. boring. han loong it's all your fault. i caught this from you :p

argh. i'm alone at home with bagel. manda's off at aunty michelle's getting a dress. sheesh. wonder what the big fuss is with founder's day. it's just a really expensive dinner with bad food.

sigh. i'm such a sentimental fool. listening to faith hill now. lol.

In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life
I'll keep a part of you with me
And everywhere I am there you'll be
And everywhere I am there you'll be

'Cause I always saw in you my light, my strength
And I wanna thank you now for all the ways
You were right there for me, you were right there for me
You were right there for me for always
-Faith Hill.

on that happy note, i shall start my post. nothing much is happening now. OH! miracles do happen. i found my jotterbook after FOUR months. thanks to guojie :). life is quite peaceful now haha. but then again, change is the only constant in life, so i shall expect more things to come and disturb my peaceful status quo.

was watching sweet home alabama the other day.

i was so rooting for the other guy. he was ten times more suave and charming anyways. Mel preferred Jake. Guess she likes the more barbaric kind. haha. i'll bet he was wearing blue contact lenses...nobody can have eyes like that. it should be a sin.

ARGH. a walk to remember was so sweet. even though mandy moore's acting completely and utterly sucks in that movie, yea, the plot and the storyline was nice. at least shane west can act. as if such things happen in real life anyways.

ok i shall stop being so cynical.

oh well. the world seems strangely quiet and subdued now that world cup fever is over. haha. the guys in school seem all zonked out. lol. goodness. some people even walk around looking depressed because france didn't win. speaking of france, after hearing about the legendary zidane, i guess i should really watch some of the matches he played. haha. it's like a travesty not to watch him or something.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. but the greatest of these is love.
- Jesus.

Eight8's over. for all my complaining about LOOONG rehearsals and freezing fingers, i really do miss them. haha. Had much fun and i think it was a great opportunity to get to know many of the PE members a bit more. Will miss all the crazy times Weishan, Enqing, Sihan, Barney, Darren, Christine, Althea and I had. Albeit it being such a creepy piece, i hafta say that i kinda like 'Dance of the Adolescent' :)
Oh yes. Thanks guys for coming to support me (HL, Evan, Kaye, Mel, CHRISTINE, Ben, Yuting, Lydia etc) . And thanks for the flowers too!They're in this jug on the table now. Looking at them makes me feel happier :D.
nuts. now gotta prepare for vivace.
CHRISTINE LIM. i was so glad to see you!!!!!! please. no more surprises next time. haha.
Well. the cell group has multiplied. but somehow it still feels the same during service. that's a good thing :) but i still didn't see some of the young adults. :( but service was quite powerful haha. Dr Robb Thomson came to preach. Gosh, but what he had to deliver was profound. Guess friends do play a major role in determining who you are in the future.
All right. Gotta go do the roster and catch up on undone homework. ciao!

your love is amazing
steady and unchanging
your love is a mountain
firm beneath my feet

your love is a mystery
how you gently lift me
when i am surrounded
your love carries me.

life has been busy. there are so many things going on and it just takes you on the rollarcoaster ride. it's exciting, but we must always stop to remember the really important things in life.
piano concert is only a few days away. haha. i think i've grown to appreciate 'dance of the adolescent' for all it's quirky melody and rhythm.
i've learnt a few things in the past few weeks. it almost seems as if God multiplied the time to enable me to grow so much.

i think i'm ready to take up my cross.

taking up the cross involves so many sacrifices. it hurts no doubt. but once i took it up i felt this sense of peace. so yea. i know this has to be right. it's not in line with what i want...but i know it's probably for the greater good. so i'm willing to put everything aside to follow Him. after all. He was the one who brought me here.
i think sometimes i care too much about what others think. but in retrospect...they didn't die for me. they didn't sacrifice all they had for me. they don't promise me everlasting love and they don't promise me eternal life.

faith is a substance of things hoped for.

we all need it.

I will bless the Lord forever
I'll bless your holy name.
HELLO! i'm kinda tired of being angsty and depressed. so yea. yesterday put everything into a bigger perspective for me.
Sometimes when you stray and you feel so weary, then you wonder where God is. But he's there. He has always been here. you were just looking in the wrong direction.
Yesterday was much needed anointing and refreshing. Don't ask me why i got a nosebleed in the middle of the service. Shaofeng said the anointing was too strong. LOL. Actually it was pretty amusing. I was crying then i started laughing when I got a nosebleed. Thanks Nat! You were a great help, with the water and the tissue. HAHA. Yea but ANYWAYS. yesterday was one of the most awesome services I ever went for because I finally met God face to face. It's times like that when I know life would have no more meaning if He ever were to abandon me.

ANDREW KHOO! haha. yes i'm really glad you're back!!! It was fun meeting up with you that day and seeing what you have done with yourself. Well done with the hair. Really suits your skin tone. lol. Argh. We hafta meet up again before you leave ok?!? that seems quite impossible because i'm gonna be busy. :(

MIKEY! lol. you do look different. yea...nice hair. you look a bit like Shaggy from Scooby Doo in retrospect. HAHA. but yea. it was awesome seeing you back! Bet the weather here is terrible compared to Australia. Nuts. We need a study group outing. lol. Hope you've managed to contact the rest. :)

CHRISTINE LIM! ARGH. i'm so sad we can't meet up tomorrow! stupid rehearsals. :( hope you've been well. lol. was talking to en qing the other day and he told me you haven't changed since like P4. haha. well done. Hope you've been enjoying yourself in Singapore so far. Miss you A LOT. take care of yourself!! have you been intimidating the guys Down Under? :p
