02:09 am - Precious Lyrics

To all who have been faithfully checking my blog for updates..  hahaha..  Sorry to disappoint ya!

Dec was really hectic for me..  3 camps a total of 2 weeks..  NUSPE camp was the only camp that I had time to relax..  Even then, sleeping late didn't help..  Uni summit was tiring, but I learnt so much!  And meta too..  Though I was stretched for both crusade camps, I'm so thankful that I went for them, coz I've learnt so much more that I could have ever imagined.

The Missing Peace went well too!  My dear Audrie mentis almost stole my boyfriend..  HAHAHAHA.  It was quite funny la, the emcee script.  The drama went brilliantly!  Thank God for keeping the sound system intact..  It's stressful to do PA really, esp when you're the only one handling it  (JH, if you still read this, remember all those times doing PA in mg??  hahaha)..  but most of all, thank God for the people that have come to know Him!  And it's very encouraging to see them come to church now..  =D

Some song lyrics that I've learnt from meta that now mean a lot to me..

--

=Amazing Love=

My Lord, what love is this that pays so dearly
That I the guilty one, may go free

Amazing love oh what sacrifice
The Son of God given for me
My debt He pays and my death He dies
That I might live, that I might live

And so they watched Him die
Despised, rejected but
Oh the blood He shed flowed for me

And now this love of Christ
Shall flow like rivers
Come wash your guilt away, live again!

Amazing love oh what sacrifice
The Son of God given for me
My debt He pays and my death He dies
That I might live, that I might live

--

=How Great Is Our God=

The splendor of a King, clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice, All the earth rejoice
He wraps himself in Light, and darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice, Trembles at His voice

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the end, Beginning and the end

The Godhead Three in One, Father Spirit Son
The Lion and the Lamb, The Lion and the Lamb

Name above all names
Worthy of all praise
My heart will sing
How great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

--

=All The Earth Will Sing Your Praises=

You lived You died
You said in three days You would rise
You did You're alive
You rule You reign
You said You're coming back again
I know that You will
And all the earth will sing Your praises
All the earth will sing Your praises

You took, You take our sins away O God
You give, You gave Your life away for us
You came down, You saved us through the cross
Our hearts are changed
Because of Your great love

--

=All The Heavens=

Holy holy are You Lord
The whole earth is filled with Your glory
Let the nations rise to give
Honour and praise to Your name
Let Your face shine on us
And the world will know You live
All the heavens shout Your praise
Beautiful is our God
The universe will sing
Hallelujah to You our King

--

=Jesus, What A Beautiful Name=

Jesus, what a beautiful name
Son of God, Son of Man
Lamb that was slain
Joy and place, strength and hope
Grace that blow all fear away
Jesus, what a beautiful name

Jesus, what a beautiful name
Truth revealed, my future sealed
Healed my pain
Love and freedom, life and warmth
Grace that blows all fear away
Jesus, what a beautiful name

Jesus, what a beautiful name
Rescued my soul, my stronghold
Lifts me from shame
Forgiveness, security, power and love
Grace that blows all fear away
Jesus, what a beautiful name

--

=Shout Unto God=

The enemy has been defeated
And death couldn't hold You down
We're gonna lift our voice in victory
We're gonna make Your praises loud

Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Shout unto God with a voice of praise
Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
We lift Your name up
We lift Your name up

Have been keeping myself busy since exams have ended.. Went back to ac choir this morning.. I was almost shocked at the many thoughts and emotions that ran through me.. So many memories.. In a way, too many memories.. I do question myself why I'm still so heavily involved in music. I'm beginning to understand why I'm in lifescience instead of music.. Why I'll become a bio teacher instead of a music scholar/performer. I thank God for guiding me to this decision to do bio in nus, coz the more I delve into the painfully mugger course, the more I'm beginning to see God's direction for me.. But I really wonder why I'm hanging on to music.. Skatz.. Ac choir.. piano.. is it merely something i enjoy? Or is it going to lead me to something more meaningful than just pure self-entertainment? I have yet to understand myself on this one I guess.. Yes, music comes from God.. a beautiful gift that only God can create. But how do I use music to glorify God? That's something I have to think more about..

hear ye hear ye!

the worm/hamster/blaster has finished her exams! WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

hahaha.. the papers weren't fantastic.. i have absolutely zilch idea of how i'll do this semester. But right now i just can't be bothered. i'm just so happy that for the next 6 weeks i can focus my mind on things other than memorising chunks dry info that takes the joy out of learning.

seriously, i can't wait to finish 2nd year.. i wish we could specialise earlier..

anyway, thank God for bringing me through this semester.. ups and downs.. basically the most hectic sem i've had thus far.. yeeesh..

it was almost crazy yesterday.. after molecular bio paper, i met zl in the afternoon. it seemed almost like a CRIME that i wasn't studying. i had to remind myself that it's the hols now.. =P

me wanna go bowling again.. heh..

stoopid stoopid laptop.  i typed out a nice post, and it hung on me.  it's been acting up the past week.  almost lost all my info.  now i've backed it all up.  yayee.  BUT.  i spent a good 27 bucks buying cds.  hanging on me and being super lag.  >.<  it's making me all grumpy and impatient.  dunno how many donkey hours i've wasted on this silly machine this past week.

yes, i'm updating because i know it's been yonks since i last updated.  i've received complaints.

3 tests and 1 bioinfomatics before the semester ends and we're plunged into exams.  *UGH*  and may i add that i absolute don't like bioinformatics.  all the blasting, phylo trees..  getorfs, showorfs and sixpacks (don't bother understanding if you don't).  and not like the linux technology we're using for that module is like worthy to be wowed at.  sighs.

i'd so love to blast that module outta my system.

i've got a chem test tmr.  but i'm feeling this awful inertia to study.  simply because i'm muchly tired and groggy, and super sian.  i think i'm coming down with a flu.  =(  and zl's taking advantage of the public holidays this week to go someplace in china with his family..  (me misses you muchly)  =(  i think i'll go nap before launching into studying.  and hopefully be in a better mood later.

but something i look forward to tmr though..  i have a date with my darling baby at Daily Scoop!!  Yummiest ice cream!  yayyee!!

hear ye hear ye!  never buy the f u j i t s u s!  i might use mine tons, and take mighty good care of it, but rest assured it'll be my first and last of this particular brand.  unless they have improved their laptops, this one is definitely not worth my $3.1k (yes it was superly ex.  why do you think i'm so grumpy about my laptop??)

OH CRUD.  my media player (loaded with 3000+ songs) has decided to quit its library on me.  i have to load all the songs again.  and redo my playlists.  and reorganize my audio libary.  CRAP.  shoot my computer.

die, flu bug.  DIE.  NOW!  *sniffles*

I've come to the grand conclusion that I can NEVER STUDY AT HOME. It's too quiet, too comfy, and I simply can't concentrate.

Man I wish I had gone to school to study. BAH.

I got a chem test next week.. Thank God biocomputing test has been postponed!

Sometimes I do wish that I don't have so many things to do.. Ministry, NUSPE and school.. I wonder what I've gotten myself into. But I'm always reminded of what Annie said.. Being a Christian doesn't mean we drop everything for ministry.. It means to be consistent ya..

Desperately trying to strike a balance between school and ministry. And trying to find my ministry in NUSPE.

Back to chemistry text.

But before that..

Food for thought: What exactly is a Spirit-filled life? How many of us can actually claim to fully understand the meaning of Ephesians 5:18?

Well candice, glad to know you're back.. =P

I felt obliged to post something up after reading Candi's entry.. Girl, I really admire you..

I, for one have disappeared. Main reasons being that 1. I have an offline journal; 2. I don't have much time to churn out decent entries on this one; 3. I've become increasingly selective in who I want to share my life with..

Sorry guys, no offense. LJ now does seem too open to be appealing with me. Everyone I know who reads this journal are people that I'd love to keep in touch with, love to share my life with.. But NOT EVEYRONE WHO READS THIS JOURNAL IS EVERYONE I KNOW.

And I guess that's the point that freaks me out.

I feel rather far away from so many of the friends that I was close to.. Or at least somewhat close to.. Ter, Candi, Flea, church friends.. Not that it's anyone's fault.. It's mine. I'm never on MSN (because there are too many OTHER annoying people that bug me for no reason.. Don't assume it's you though. I really have quite a lot of annoying people on my list. And they PESTER ME.) I never keep in touch with so many of you.. Sometimes too busy to chat.. And when I start chatting on MSN, I can stay there for hours and not get any work done..

Antisocial? I really hope not.

Sorry guys.. =( Forgive my lack of commitment in friendships.

Hmm.. This entry turned out a lot more reflective than I thought it would.

And anyway, if any of you are wondering about the caps, it's the fault of lab reports, assignments, and official emails to CFA.

sawatdee kha!
phrung nii mi acappella competition ti esplanade don song toom! yak bai mai? =P

haha.. sorry i couldn't resist spouting that bit of thai.. i really do miss the language..
let me tranlate. here's the literal translation:
"hello! tmr got acappella competition at esplanade at 8pm. want to go?"

yes, the literal translation is almost broken english. actually "yak bai mai" is better translated "要去吗?"

tadaa! khao jai mai? =P

yes yes, my group will be part of this competition. 4 groups in total.. in case you're interested, my group will be singing "It Don't Mean A Thing", "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life" and a medley of "No More Tears" and "This Love".

if you're free, please come down to support us! =)

khorp khun maak kha! leaw jer gan phrung nii!
(okay fine. it means thank you very much, see you tmr =D)
