* Sunday, July 31, 2005 * the last time i heard this song was when michael was still conducting the choir in church... i was really in love with this song... the melody was so capturing. tracy and dom did the solo parts and i thought they did a really wonderful job. i've always envied people who can sing really well... it's really a gift. the choir is going to present this song again. however this time is really different. steven and i have got to sing the solo parts. it also speaks to me in a different way this time. the words became the focal point of the whole song, the melody that i fell in love with wasn't as important as before... having to sing the lines over and over again. each word spoke to me. "I, the Lord of sea and sky I have heard my people cry All who dwell in dark and sin My hand will save I, who made the stars of night I will make their darkness bright Who will bear my light to them Whom shall I send? Here I am, Lord Is it I Lord? I have heard You calling in the night I will go Lord If You lead me I will hold Your people in my heart I, the Lord of snow and rain I have borne my people's pain I have wept for love of them They turn away I will break their hearts of stone Give them hearts for love alone I will speak my word to them Whom send I send? Here I am, Lord Is it I Lord? I have heard You calling in the night I will go Lord If You lead me I will hold Your people in my heart I, the Lord of wind and flame I will tend the poor and lame I will set a feast for them My hand will save Finest bread I will provide Till their hearts be satisfied I will give my life to them Whom shall I send? Here I am, Lord Is it I Lord? I have heard You calling in the night I will go Lord If You lead me I will hold Your people in my heart" Lord, may all that i do be pleasing in Your eyes. Lord, help me to forget about myself and fix my eyes on You and You alone. Let it not be a performance but an offering unto You Father. Touch the hearts of the congregation and bless them with Your abundant grace and mercy. In Jesus' name, Amen. Labels: Christian/Church, Songs

* Saturday, July 30, 2005 * spent the whole afternoon in Paragon today... performed the merlion38 in the mall... it's quite a unique experience... never performed in a shopping centre before - not even when i was in band. there was a crowd and there were people peering out from different levels. kinda exciting actually. especially when i was emceeing... i've seen emcees in the mall promoting products - they would just go on and on... gosh. and there i was, promoting the merlion38... just went on and on without a script. cool. we performed twice with a 15 mins interval. then we had to stay on to help organise the other performances - compassvale pri merlion38 group and teck whye pri sch band... kinda sabo-ed again. super last minute lor. 15 mins before the show i was told to be the emcee for their performances... but it comes out quite naturally this time. it's feels kinda weird actually... to hear my own voice resounding in the whole shopping centre. found myself kept looking upwards at the shoppers who were peering out from above when i speak.... hee. after that my instructor treated us to a steamboat dinner at paradiz centre... it's this restaurant beside tao's - forgot what's it called. but the food there is not bad lah. can do. the sour plum vinegar is very nice... recommended! and the milk pudding... very nice.... aw... the ambience quite cool leh. if you decide to have some fresh air, there is something like an open air 'min ge chan ting'... quite cool. i like... oh yah... it was raining suoer heavily this afternoon when i went to town. so heavy that it blew everyone's umbrellas away... the wind was so strong that it was destroying all the little stores on the roadside man. gosh. people who hang out with me long enough would know that i don't like to bring umbrella out... so i was stuck at the bus stop outside heerens for 15 mins before i decided to "run" (i can't run yet... so... heh. i was just walking quicky) into heerens. then i bought an umbrella from the counter for $3... hee. so blessed.

* Friday, July 29, 2005 * God has been so good to me... so good that i'm overwhelmed! been having tests for the past few weeks... i was busy studying but i must admit i didn't really put my whole heart in to study... kept getting distracted. But He was there for me all the time! He does listen to prayers, He heard mine... Art and Design Test didn't managed to cover all the topics... but He blessed me with full marks! Studio Pro Written Test i studied quite hard for this... was quite confident that i would do well. but i became complacent... forgot all about committing it to God. didn't know how to do almost half the paper.... left the test with a bad feeling that i might fail it. but guess what? i was shocked when i got back my paper.... i passed! and it wasn't a really bad pass... thank God! Audio Practical Test oh man... how i hate audio classes. can't help but fall asleep when the lecturer starts to talk! yes, he is that boring. i was really lost most of the time... and it doesn't help that it's a practical test which i can't study for! agrh. ..............went in thinking - "oh no..." but again, God helped me through! i don't know how but i could somehow answer my lecturer's question and do the things he told me to do! it's really a miracle... Intro to Film Test that very same day i had this test.... it's a written test. the sort that you hafta write essays... ahhh... i studied for this test way before the test... i actually pia-ed the whole night through for it! but that day itself i couldn't really concentrate... kept getting distracted. it was bad... went into the classroom feeling quite 'se-eh'. i couldn't focus there and then. oh man... "sure fail one" kept ringing in my ear! but He didn't let me fail... He is really capable of anything! Audio Written Test am i blur or what? i didn't know that the test was scheduled for that day until i walked into the lecture theatre full of students with their heads down! crap... 90% blank. believe it or not. i really didn't know how to do. sigh. i was like... that's it. i'm going to fail it. no matter how amazing God can be! He can't help me when i leave so many blanks on my paper! BUT one day after lecture... my lecturer held me back and talked to me. asked if i was having any difficulties in his class. then i simply said i didn't know about the test.... i thought he was going to dismiss it as an excuse. but he didn't. he even decided to set a retest paper for me! i was amazed. Studio Pro Practical Test i was supposed to take the test last week but i wasn't feeling well... super thankful that ms hong was nice enough to let me go back to rest! can't imagine what will happen if i took the test that day man... the test today was good! got 12.4/15... God blessed me with ms hong for all my 5 stations! wow. she is really lenient lor.... Amazing! God is so good! He's so good to me! ('',) Labels: School/Work

* Wednesday, July 27, 2005 * went to pris' house for dinner and to jam after school yesterday... dinner was way good man. yummilicious. thanks! jamming was really cool. miss those times when i would sit around with a couple of friends and sing... hee. this time i actually had the chance to share and sing the songs i've written over the years... heh. it's not very good lah. especially with the lyrics part. not really good with words i guess. and even more so after the sermon on music sunday... everyone's more conscious of what they sing and hear now! *stressed* but it was really super cool to be singing new songs to the Lord, praising His name. i don't really compose songs actually. i just make up the tune in my head... no chords. no scores. just me humming the melody, adding in the words. that's it. heh. never really shared those songs for they never sound good enough. ugh. but this time i'm digging them all out for the band. so... hee. we can work on it together! the songs still have lots of areas that can be improved... looking forward to our next jamming session! woooohooo!!!

* Tuesday, July 26, 2005 * happy birthday... lil bro. i actually almost forgot that it's your birthday today... i'm so ashamed of myself for not being the kind of sister i should be. sorry if i haven't been spending time with you, to listen to what you want to say, to play with you... it's kinda sad that we can't live together and do many things that other siblings do... many times when i haven't seen you for a really long time, i would be afraid that you would forget who i am... that you would forget that i'm your sister. but you didn't. you would always be so happy to see me. it really warms my heart. it does. though i may not express it in the most obvious ways... i'm sorry for not being there for you when you needed someone to guide you and teach you what to do when you face problems. you've really grown up... you're almost taller than me now. but it feels like you've grown up too quickly... i barely had the chance to carry when you were little... barely had the chance to play and seek... barely had the chance to hear you cry... barely had the chance to squeeze your chubby cheeks... but somehow i really hope you'll grow up soon to understand many things... to understand that we didn't put you aside to live with grandpa and grandma for no reason. remember that we're in this situation together... you're not alone. i went through this phase too... i didn't understand why i can't live together with mom and dad.. leading a life as though i had no parents... it's not a good feeling i understand. but all these happen for a purpose. and only He knows what it is. seek and ask the Lord, He will definitely reveal His wonderful plans to you one day... i pray that you will grow up in the Lord... that you'll truly receive Him as your personal saviour. that whatever problems you'll encounter, go to Him. He will always be there for you. many times human will fail you but God will never fail you nor forsake you. He alone is faithful and true. trust in Him. thank you for being who you are. happy birthday. Labels: Birthdays

* Tuesday, July 19, 2005 * For those who don't know what this is, it is a new instrument created by our band instructor in secondary school, Mr Simon Ng! it is the first instrument that 'belongs' to singapore... cool.  I didn't know the existence of this although it has been published on the papers... guess i've been too busy. You can go check it out at the website: http://www.merlion38.com Mr Ng needs people to help him play the m-e-r-l-i-o-n-3-8 at the exhibition at Paragon Shopping Centre Atrium so i might be playing then... hee. when i first saw the instrument, it was like... how am i suppose to play this? it looks like any other merlion ornament! hmmm. it's a blowing instrument... and there are holes to produce different notes... and the next thing i realise was that all the 38 of them have weird names... cool, nice, fantastic, helpful, successful, determined, pure, passionate, warm etc... and it's supposed to portray how singaporeans are like. erm. ok... i know it's kinda hard to name all 38 of them... i wanted to ask why 38? not 40... since singapore is 40 years old this year... then it suddenly dawn on me that it's his favourite number. his car number plate is 3838, phone numbers end with 3838... but i think there should be a deeper meaning to it. or so i hope. on the whole, i think it's a good concept... something that you and i will not think of. it's a dream put into reality.

music sunday's just over... sat through 3 services with the choir. heard the sermon thrice but it spoke to me each time... it was a powerful message and it set me thinking about the music ministry and our approach to worship. we should never merely respond to the atmosphere... we should never forget that it's about experiencing God's power, not let it become a ritual that we perform week after week... we should be careful not to worship worship. worship should not be the focus. God is. when our focus shift, it becomes something else that does not please the Lord. How then, should worship be? it should be intelligent, beneficial to the strengthening of the church, instructed, encouraging, peace (not disorder), fitting and orderly... Rev. Ng then talked about the points to note about worship... 1. worship is not only music/song. so many times we sing the song only because we like the melody or just because it's popular. our focus is wrong. it's not about how nice the music sounds, it's the condition of the heart. mean what we sing and sing only what we mean. 2. Music can manipulate. i always knew that music could stir emotions but i never knew that it is so powerful. when he showed us the pictures without music, it was nothing really affecting. but once the music was added in, i felt more emotional. now that we know this, we should be careful and set our focus on God. and ONLY on Him. 3. Performance vs Service. the songs we choose for worship should also be in sync with sermon topic and should help enhance the message... not to sing the songs for the sake of singing the songs. not to sing the songs because everyone else is singing it. not to sing the songs because we know it. not to sing the songs because it's nice. 5. Focus on Christ vs Self. 6. Pleasing/acceptable to God? 7. "Boring service" may reflect your personal walk with God. there are 2 songs that we sang that really spoke to me. it was Let us exalt His name together and In Christ Alone, i heard the first song last year during global music sunday and it touched me everytime we sang it... the words are so meaningful and it reflects what i want to say to the Lord... i first heard In Christ Alone during the recent thai mission trip... the canadians were asking whether i know this song and taught me how to sing it... the words are just so strong... Let's us exalt His name together At all times i will bless Him; The angel of the Lord encamps round Come children, now and hear me Let us exalt His name together forever.

* Saturday, July 16, 2005 * there's a super big tentage at the open field in front of my flat... they are adding on to AIR pollution, NOISE pollution and traffic congestion! gosh... was going to thank God it's only once a year BUT WAIT A MINUTE. they shouldn't be doing this at all! no doubt we're living in singapore where everything is democratic... everyone has their freedom in religion, speech etc... that sounds good doesn't it? but has it every cross your mind how it hurts God to see so many people indulging in idol worshipping? having freedom comes with another price... we can't just be so familiar with having so many people of different religions... it's getting all too familiar. we even know what they are doing. have we stop and think, "hey, i think they should stop doing this. it's not right. God will be hurt to see so many people turning their backs on Him." have you? i know i have not until just now... now, knowing is one thing, doing is another. do we have the courage to say to the people around us about our faith? about the one and only true living God? so many have yet to hear of the gospel... and time is running out each day... He is coming again soon. how many will be saved when the time comes? are we too contented with ourselves? maybe we should reach out to those around us... now. it hurts seeing so many people gathering to worship idols, burning incense to them... i'm sure it hurts God so much more! we should not let this become a norm in our lives! being used to is not the way to be... we should not try to adapt to the environment - not regarding this matter. but seek to change the people around us! p.s. i'm not trying to provoke a riot or do anything to disrupt the peace we have here... just pray about it and see what God is asking you to do! Lord, i want to run to the altar and catch the fire... i want to stand in the gap between the living and the dead. give us a heart of compassion for a world without vision. with You Father, i know we will make a difference bringing hope to our land.

* Friday, July 15, 2005 * being the director is really NOT fun.... super stressful man. (i'm not THAT stressed yet. just trying to complain a lil to make myself feel better. *heh*) so many things to do... visualising is one thing, putting it down into words is another! have to write every single detail down: which camera to shoot at host/talent... which camera the host/talent is suppose to look at... script for host... modes of shots... MCU? MS? LS? camera movements... dolly? crab? pan? tilt? zoom? pedestal up/down? VTPB... music... lighting... timing... it's a live show! woohoo!!! TV studio production project proposal is due next week... trying to tie up some loose ends. after that, i'll be busy with the 3G project... i'll be directing that as well... oh well. music sunday this week... throat still not well yet - hope i can sing well in choir. mom should be well... haven't gone back to work i'm sure. still recuperating at home. sigh. didn't get a chance to speak to the doc... maybe i should call them and ask... too bad the job my friend offered seems too much like a scam... if not it would be a good way to help earn some money. will see. You've been faithful in all of Your ways, though we may not understand why we go through life this way. But we know what it's like to be by Your side.

(hint hint)*heh* pei her to boat quay... although i had to wait for 1 hr and 30 mins, i didn't feel as though i had wasted my time. that's good! at least i tried to read a book, wrote out stuff for interview and took some nice pictures!

(mountain turtle...) but i'm still young lah.. it's a place for the grown-ups i think... oh yah! acaan joy's in town! hee... yeah! mom's discharged finally. don't know why she can leave so soon... kinda weird but well, i think the docs know what they're doing lah. at least i know that her nose's no longer bleeding. just have to trust in the Lord, after all, He knows the best! thank you for your prayers and intentions of coming to visit my mom... that was really very much appreciated. Lord, Your grace is sufficient for me. Your strength is made perfect when i am weak. Father, all that i cling to, i lay at Your feet.... Labels: Random

* Wednesday, July 13, 2005 * i'm burnt... again. concluded that i get red really easily... never got dark after 'bleaching' at home for months. supposed to do something there, but anyway... went there with some girls from my class. kayaking and all... it was enjoyable and most importantly, it was a time out for me. mom's still in hospital... for all who wants to visit, she's in Changi General Hospital Ward 46 Bed 12A... her bleeding has finally ceased. but the doctors are currently conducting tests to the cause of the bleeding... will most probably have the results tomorrow. pray that it's nothing serious... wanna thank all of you for expressing your concerns for my mom's condition... it's really a great encouragement to me. i may not express it in the most obvious ways but you know.... it's written in my heart. a heart-felt thank you. i've also seen who my friends are... those who truly care and love me. God had really proved His sovereignty through this incident... that He really listens to every prayers made... He is in control of the whole situation. of my mom. of me. i'm really amazed how God became so real in my life now... i've never felt like this before even though i call myself a christian since i was a kid. reminds me of my first love... with God. He didn't forsake me. He never will. i know He's changing me day by day... teaching me precious lessons through trials, people He placed in my life... i trust that all He does, He do it for the best of me. He has made me stronger... by helping me fight this emotional battle. i entrust my all to Him. "For who compares to You? You who made the morning light... the hope of all the earth is rest assured in Your great love! You are magnificent, eternally, wonderful, glorious. No one ever will compare to You, Jesus."

* Monday, July 11, 2005 * went to visit my mom today... she's in changi general hospital... it is a dark gloomy ward full of groaning patients. i would be really depressed to be in that place... saw my mom lying on the bed, with tubes up in her nose. there were blood in the tube. her nose was still bleeding. but she looked up to me and smiled. i've haven't seen her for ... months? i can't remember. she look different. she had a few teeth knocked out... her hair was exceptionally grey. she didn't blame me for not visiting her yesterday... she didn't even ask why i didn't go. i know she's in pain but she didn't complain at all. i was crying inside. asking God to fill me with strength... to release her from all suffering. i couldn't take the pressure at a point... i went out of the ward... seeking for solace. negative thoughts were just pouring in and drawing me away from God... i had the urge to do something i'm not supposed to. but i didn't. God held me back... He shown me how much i'm needed in this family and i just can't run away like this. that would just be too irresponsible of me. i just needed to calm down and be left alone. didn't pick up calls today... didn't reply SMSes... didn't reply MSN messages... don't know what to say. sorry to all who failed to contact me... sorry for making you worried/annoyed... i went back to the ward after a while... the doc, knowing that i was around, was waiting for me to talk to me about my mom's condition. he took me aside and explained the cause of mom's nose bleeding. i wasn't in a very clear state of mind but he said something about blood clotting system not working very well... but they're still not very sure why this is so. she will be referred to a "blood specialist" tomorrow and she won't be discharged any time soon. my mom asked me what the doc said but i didn't know how to explain... not that i didn't know how to say the words technically but... agrh. it's complicated. dad still haven't found a job yet... don't know how we're gonna settle the hospital bills this time round. medisave? hopefully... pray that God will provide a way out. actually He has been with us, i just failed to recognise that. pray for my lil bro... he's going through quite a bit too... emotionally, spiritually... heard he's not doing very well in school... he'll be taking PSLE this year... hope he will not be too affected. pray that he will not take things too hard too... received calls from his teachers saying that they noticed weird behaviours from him in school... violence... not-talk... dangerous acts... i'm quite worried for him too. He, like me, is a 2nd generation christian... i don't know how real is God to him... whether he has accepted Him as his personal saviour. i do pray so... pray for mom's nose to stop bleeding... she would need to have a transfusion if it goes on like this... pray that God will be with her... thank you all who have been faithfully praying for my family and me. sorry if i haven't been myself.

* Sunday, July 10, 2005 * received a sms late last night, saying that my mom's in hospital... mom contracted cancer around 2 years ago. and she has been going in and out of the hospital ever since. it has been a very emotional journey for me and my family. and now, she's in the hospital because her nose was bleeding non-stop... i haven't gone to visit her. i'm afraid. i'm afraid i would break down in front of her. not too long ago i was still struggling with the decision whether to go through or to forgo the operation to remove the turmour from her neck. after much prayer and consultation, i passed up the operation as the complications were many. mom has several heart diseases, high blood pressure and many small ailments... it would be risky for her to actually put her on the operation table. 1 out of 7 would not pull through. we, or rather i never understood why God allowed such a thing to happen. why God could let someone who has already lost the ability to speak and hear to further suffer. i couldn't see how He, at that time, was in control. so many times i've broke down and cried but what good does it do? it doesn't help her get better... my dad, too, he can't speak nor hear. and all the responsibilities have fell on me. i felt so burdened, so tired that i've tried to run away and hide. but it didn't solve my problems at all. nothing would. nobody could. except God. but so many times i failed to go to God. i failed to see how He was able to help in that kind of situation... and many times, in one way or another, i would be reminded to go to Him but i was still stubborn. unwilling to let down the burden i was carrying to the Lord. however God was and still is in control. He didn't give up on me. He has taught me that all He does, He do it with a purpose. We may never be able to apprehend but we must trust that He is sovereign over all... "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:5-7 Lord, please grant me the courage to face her and to encourage her. please assure her that You are with her, that You would not leave her to fight this battle alone. Lord, help her to come to You and surrender everything into Your Hands. let me not be weary Lord, give me the strength to stand with her in this storm and not let me waver and fall. Father, by Your grace, heal her, comfort her, be with her. Amen. Labels: Christian/Church

* Saturday, July 09, 2005 * my tests are finally over.... phew. think i wouldn't do so badly... or so i hope. anyways, i'm taking part in Project Pilot! it's really gonna be super exciting man... i would just smile to myself whenever i think about the story of our film! it's crazy. it just came out at that instance. the perfect story. i was made the director and i know it's gonna be doubly tough man. but it's a bunch of passionate people i'm working with! who would suggest meeting on a sat morning? oh well... how can i tell you how excited i am about this project? "I'M REALLY EXCITED!" a lot of high expectations this time round, it's no longer hoping to qualify... we're eyeing for the finals... and even to being the one! i'm sure with the grace of the Lord, we can do it. remember in His Word it says "I can do everything through Him who gives me strength." philippians 4:13. Amen to that! want to tell you all about the exciting storyline our team thought of! but i don't want to lower our chances of winning this competition! hee... you'll get to see it if it's ever gonna make it BIG! the prizes are really attractive i must say... and it's prolly partly what's driving us. each of us would get a 3G phone if we made it to the finals... and if we're winning this thing, we would get cash.... and a chance to work with a local director in his latest production! neato. that is gonna look really good on my resume man... if better still, they'd employ me even before i graduate. hee. temporal stuff. yet we keep yakking about it. sigh. well well... actually i shouldn't pin so much hope on this. don't want to fall from that high to a bottomless pit. all this i do, i do it for Him.

* Tuesday, July 05, 2005 * I was reminded of a song I've been singing in church since I was a kid... Because of its beautiful melody, it has been my favourite song for a period of time. But as I sing it again this day, it spoke to me... that i should be singing this unto the Lord. I've made God too small in my eyes... Relying on myself, focusing only on myself... Lord, forgive me. Be Magnified I have made You too small in my eyes Oh Lord, forgive me When I have believed in a lie That You were unable to help me But now, Oh Lord, I see my wrong Heal my heart and show Yourself strong And in my eyes and with my song Oh Lord, be magnified Oh Lord, be magnified Be magnified, Oh Lord You are highly exalted And there is nothing You can't do Oh Lord, my eyes are on You Be magnified, Oh Lord, be magnified I have leaned on the wisdom of man Oh God, forgive me When I have responded to them Instead of Your light and Your mercy Labels: Christian/Church, Songs

* Saturday, July 02, 2005 * went to look at the work environment earlier on... it's an international company which make use of network marketing... sigh. profit seems high but i'm not sure... it's not just a part time job you see... it's like setting up your own business! and when you start up a business, you have to fork out a capital! agrh. no way man. so that's out. maybe i should just go look for a proper part-time job... tomorrow's youth sunday! and guess what? i'll be backup singing for ALL 3 services!!! oohhh... first time backup singing and it's for all 3... cool. and the youths will perform a song item "give them all".... tomorrow i'll be singing the whole day man. hee. woke up with sore throat... bad sign. but learnt to pray and drank lots and lots of water... now it feels better! great... next week is gonna be crazy! 3 tests! 2 written and 1 practical... but i've been studying quite a fair bit all along so shouldn't have too much to read up on... hee. changed specs yesterday... black plastic frames... quite cool. i quite like it. BUT it's making me really giddy. the ground seems to be floating... and i hafta roughly gauge where i step before i move forward. quite scary... esp when i got down the bus, nearly missed the step and fell. agrh! hopefully this is a matter of time... can't afford to go around guessing where my next step would be! or i'll hafta go back to my optician and get it changed! sigh... okays... needa go eat dinner soon. and then study... till then.
