Hosanna.

I wonder what would it have been like or what would have happened, if i didn't obey You. Just as we were about to take the wrong step, You warned me not to take it. Indeed You are amazing. Perhaps, THINGS would have happened if we didn't change our minds. I really wouldn't know what i'd do without You in my life. A million thanks, and it goes on. And also how important it is to have your godly friends WITH YOU wherever you go. Times when you don't know what to do, you can always turn to them so that we'd figure it out together with God. Awesome! I thank God for placing such people in my life. I got to hang out with friends today which i have not done in SUCH A LONG TIME! Been so busy with everything. We planned, and planned but never worked out. But all of a sudden today, we just did.

I don't know where did i go right to actually deserve so much from You. But again, that's love. Real love. What's best is that YOU are the love that NEVER runs dry. It all began when you CHOSE to think of us first. No force, but with a willing heart indeed. And how You sent Your only Son, Jesus Christ who was put to shame just for the sake of bringing hope into the world. That's just how much You cared for us. You thought of others. To give us a second chance to live a life so pleasing in Your eyes. Yet you only ask for one thing. A relationship with us. To be part of this one life we live. So many times we've taken You for granted in so many ways, but still You look at us with love, compassion, giving us countless and countless of chances that even if it took eternity, we can never thank You enough. That's the love that we need to give to every ends of this earth. We want to look at this world through Your eyes. Your ways. Filled with love, forgiveness and compassion over people. We wanna be more like You. Indeed, we wanna be the salt and light in this world. To raise a generation whose hearts are all out for You. As we gather, with one heart, worshipping one God. I pray that the passion, the fire..spreads. Let it overflow through this whole earth. And also that we continue to live a life for others just like You did. To give people what the world is made up of. Prayer, time, love, help. If there was ever a time where i took You for granted, oh God, i'm sorry. Times when i've hurt You. Times when i've forgotten You. I'm sorry. How i can be so stubborn at times, but You're always putting up with me. But again, You love undeserving people. You hate sin but love the sinners. No one else could ever compare to You. So with all that i am, i give it to You. So many find it hard to believe that You are real because they can't see You. Seeing is believing. But it's the other way around. Believing is seeing. As we begin to believe that You are real, You start to show Your wonders, great power. It still amazes me how You're only asking one thing from us. But then again, You are God. Words aren't enough to tell of Your greatness. Immeasurable. As we hold on to You in this crazy crazy world, i pray for our focus to be on You and only You. As we bring people closer to You, its your name that's to be glorified. Not ours. So let our lives be pointed directly at You. Be mirrors. Reflectors. Warriors for You. (:

so much more i could say. But to sum up the feelings and thoughts that fills my mind right now, i've came up with what i wanted to say.

i love You so much.

You're really all i need now and forever. Sometimes i just feel like disconnecting myself away from everything to go into that secret place where only you and i can go. Just for a while. To just stay quietly in Your arms to feel what it's like being just face to face with You. To sit down and laugh with you non-stop about the most randomest things in the world. I honestly will know that, i wouldn't know what to say when that really happens. :P But you know, that's just me. HAHAAHAHAHA. But even if i did, You'd know exactly what i want to say.

have i ever told You how amazing You are? :)

THANK YOU FOR THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE AND MORE TO COME! :) I give it to You.

That was seriously a moment. Where i just wanted to post things that are in my heart right now. Sometimes when we're overloaded, we're just so in need of a direction. A way. How we just wanna get away from everything. But then again, life isn't full of roses. Even being a Christian, things get tough. But we can't always stay in our comfort zone and enjoy ourselves all the time. We'd never learn or grow. So i say, don't give up hope! For Hope never gives up on you. (:

HEY COOL PEOPLE! Okay, i'm just here to drop ANOTHER quick one. (Even i know that it wouldn't be THAT quick as it ends up pretty long all the time.) Yes, as Mel is happily enjoying her break off from studies, i'm going insane over it now. I guess its my turn. :P Seriously, the homework never ends. I mean if it isn't many, it will be LONG LONG ones. Specifically, economics. Like there is only 1 question with like, 4 parts broken down. The answers are like for 101003012010102010192101 questions i tell you. Ugh. - -" Everything's been fine. Except for what happened like a yesterday morning. But it's okay. NOT A BIG DEAL AT ALL. It really made me realise that i needed feed myself more and more with God's Word. ANYWAYS, really excited for things to come. Been planning lots of interesting things to keep in prayer. New Gen has been awesome. Been growing and will keep growing! God has blessed us with a new room to hold it. :) Indeed people will come flowing in quickly! :D:D OKAY IM REALLY STRUGGLING TO END THIS! :S:S:S! Which i shall now. I'm sorry if this isn't proper but i really should be getting back to my work. But like yea, i'll update soon enough. MEL, i miss you still. HAHAHA. :) you take caree dude. AS WELL AS EVERYONE ELSE!

How Great is Our God.

Hey everyone! My exams are Over, but i have the 'REAL DEAL' exam in the month of May and June. The papers i did over the week, were... hard. It was expected because our teachers told us that they'll be harder than the actual Os to just prepare us. So yep, i found Maths paper 1 hard and Business 2. I struggled in Chinese as well, i felt alright with English. I'm just going to keep my grades in prayer, and if i Don't get my A's, theres always the Real exam to do extremely well! :) but hopefully the grades i get for my mocks will show signs of improvement hehe.

Well today, the NEWGEN group suprised Yvonne (eban) for her 17th Birthday, and i must say i'm proud of myself that i was able to keep the secret in long enough! hehe. It was allllll goooodd Happy 17th Birthday again Von! I hope you like the suprise. It didn't hit me that it was the last day of exams, until the end of Acts service ahahah yes yes i'm happy that their all over and i thank God that he helped me through it man! So cool i remember during my english paper i was stuck because i had to remember quotes on a questions, so i kept my COOL and just talked to God and he helped me remember the quotes just like that! Just so amazing, he gave me the strength to absorb everything was cool was cool!

For now i'm taking the weekend off, to just chill~ catch up on my sleep hehe. God's power is really moving in JIS. Its just so indescribable, breathtaking. Our NewGenGroup started with 2 people by the drain just praying. God answered and it increased to 5 people then 2 weeks later, it increased to 11 people and soon to be 12! Praise God! Presson! hehehehe Take the stand to reach out, be the one to lead those who are lost. Don't be a follower but LEADER. AMEN?! We've gotta keep on rising with FAITH and PRAYER then we'll see BREAKTHROUGH!!! believe me. What else could we ever ask for? Than the Favour of God, His love and blessing that we're heading in the RIGHT direction. He just wants the BEST FOR US.

When something begins to grow...

into something special...

its those times where we want to hold on to... :)

The weirdest things...

I find the most funniest...

When we make the decision to set our hearts for the ones we love...

To share the Love we found thats beyond this world...

to hold onto memories when we leave...

we'll always remember...

the gift we all have...

to laugh

To go beyond our limits and win

to love

to care

to look and find

to walk, to fall to get up to run to fight to breathe to fly beyond because when we make it, our reward will be so much worth it.

i go speechless.

Its in your Hands.

!

YES! exams are just in 2days. i'm excited but nervous at the same time hehe. I want to get it done and get the Grades that are just going to make me crumble down like "APPLE CRUMBLE!" (which is a good thing!) hehe. Well updates, I've been studying and sick for the past week? Homeworks, and 'lastminute' topics to cram in lessons! Basically, its been tiring but alright!

Today me and my parents had a meeting with my head of year, Mr. Airdre about further studies. Talking about Laselle and what are the grades i need to get to 'get into' the school. Basically at least 5 Gcse grades C and above. i'm still aiming for my 4A*s and the rest As! Not gonna limit myself man! :D So I gotta do reallyyyyyyyyyyyyy well in the mocks! because Laselle will be taking those results first to pre-admit me? something like that. I'm going to singapore in Feb, because theres an 'openday' to let new students 'roam' around, talk to the teachers and to get more info! Then yep....

So thats studies... How do you spend your quiet times? I tried SO MANY ways till i finally found one that suits me and that i can have a fixed TIME, PLACE, PATTERN! hehe. I do it around 11pm at night, i start of by singing songs of worship and praise, its really true that when it comes down to praise and worship, its not about the music or the people around you. Its all about Jesus. Anyway after that, i begin to pray in tongues and talk to God like a friend tell him about my day (even though i know he knows what happened). I laugh sometimes and cry sometimes, and i pray for the things i need to. Then if God leads me to a verse i look it up, if not i read the book of John (still on it hehe), somehow i just don't want to say 'amen' in my prayer, because it feels like i end it there hahaha, so i just continue to talk to Him, turn off my lights and talk to him till i actually doze to sleep...

These were the days, when we had our GCSE exams at night? hehe

When it comes down to describing HOW amazing YOU are, i go speechless.

Hey! I'm here just to drop a quick post. I realized that i've been going in and out of blogger hoping to post something up but never did. I'd always stop halfway through and close the browser leaving just a draft which looks totally awkward in the list of posts. :P Why that happens? No idea. First, i'd be all enthusiastic to blog and all then lose it in just a few minutes. Weirdness. There's just been so many things happening that i just can't find a way to get it all together. There's been school and tuition and homeworks, a project which i still am completely blur about (the teacher talked about it but i did not really understand what she was talking about.) - -" , designing so many things and ahhh..whatever! I'm really still in the process of just getting it all back together. Still in the process of getting this sentence in my head that in everything i do and am doing, I'm doing it for Jesus. And all that. It makes me feel a lot better and light as i keep that in mind. It stole lots of my time that i hardly have the time to just update myself with friends i really miss and all. Like Mel and Von and Bev and lots more. I really miss seeing and talking to them like super duper much! And it felt like a week ago since i've spoken to them and all! Except for Von, but i talked to her for only a few minutes then we had to go and stuff. And i'm gonna have to go soon to continue doing my homework. :P HAHA. But all the same, i still love the same God. It's never gonna change. The same God who's been with me and always will be. So faithful and amazing. I really don't know what i'd do without Him here with me. And i'd have no one to turn to and all. That's just insane.

Now that i've mentioned it. Its making me feel more pumped up to do a whole lot of reaching out to people. I want people to have Someone to turn to when they're not feeling right. I want people to really have Someone to love and at the same time knows that He loves them back. I want them to carry the Solution with them wherever they go. To have an amazing journey with our God. To make them see that a Christian life is more than staying in the four walls of the church, wearing nun-outfits and whatever. We're not 'square' but whether people like it or not, we're gonna spread ourselves all over. (: I just wish i could just grab them all at once and yea. I bet every Christians out there would feel that way too. When you're so desperate to see people saved, that's just how you would feel sometimes. But it's okay. I want to wait on my God and see what He has to say. (:

Mel, i miss you dude. I really don't know what's been going on and all but we'll catch up yes? :) Bali bali!~ And all the best to your exams yea! You can totally do it! :D:D:D! And here is your 'something to read.' :P



and that concludes your 'something to read.'

HELLO!

I just got back from HuaHo, went there with my parents to do marketting. My dads the weirdest yet the cutest person i've ever met i think, my mom too. I tickled her and she didn't react, so i asked her why she wasnt ticklish, and she said 'its because i'm not afraid of my husband' i didn't get it, but some how i found it funny.

Anyway, readers i'll be going on Haitus for awhile because i've got some revision to do! yepyep.

Acts was really great today, our first session for 2008! Although there weren't many people there, praise and worship was just so powerful! We sung so loudly so dynamically. Gods presence was ushered in so quickly. Well Done Worship team!! Schools starting soon! in threeee more days and i can't wait actually, but obviously we gotta get serious! ahahah but at the same time have fun! The more we hate exams the harder its gonna be to deal with it. I'm also wondering if they re-painted the orange buildings, like crazy man they re-paint it every year!! i think if they go any brighter, i'll go blind!


Newyears:

i like shoes you like beans!
i dont know what kind of beans!
but you told me jellybeans!
So i like shoes..YOU LIKE JELLYBEANS!!


could i get anymore lamer? :S
But mel, these silly songs could be big someday, okay.

just wait.

Welcome two zero zero eight!

There isn't much difference, i feel the same. ahahaha i guess its the same feeling when you turn another year old, sometimes you just don't feel different. But Yesterdays celebration was the bomb! i had loads of fun. During the countdown i think i was zoned out. I wasn't thinking about 10,9,8,7,6,5,... until everyone screamed HAPPY NEW YEAR! I was a bit slow on that.

Well the year 2007 was a good year! full of lessons learned! and great memories made. Nows time for a new year filled with more challenges to get through! I have to continue my studies, still got quite alot to get through (: but the one i dread the most is reading Lord Of the Flies. Its so long. But i guess we gotta learn to love it to deal with it!

Like Chelle, even though i know that school's going to be really stressing, im excited to go back. I miss classes and teachers. Odd no? But yeah. I miss the canteens chicken pieeeeeee :D But theres is deep desperation of seeing God's power in my school thats not going away and its so strong. We got to fight for the ones we love ? :)

In 2007:

i kinda re-met? This awesome friend that has the power of prayer and encouragement, shes so funny and she laughs at everything! she throws powerful verses at me when i'm have a blueeeee day. :)

CHELLE!

Laughed more than ever with her, she can sing and dance, ahaha yes. Another powerful person in prayer and knowing the Word! Talented and yes FUNNY. ahahahah and yes COOL. and shes looked out for me (:


BONBON!!!!!!!!!!

I teased her alot this year, and shes one great dancer. Shes helped me through alot of diffcult times, and we've laughed alot. even though i don't hang out with her that much in school, we always find the time to catch up!


STICK :) AKA CHARLOTTE!

I have other friends that i've gotten close to and many memories made! I can't wait for the exciting year to come! (; We are really blessed with amazing friends! (: Thank you all who've made this year a great year for me. but most of all, Thank you God, for the greatest gift, Life.
