old
oh wow. i'm the music director of my church's children's ministry! haha!
okay my granny's better now, thank God for the nice trainee nurse that my gramma's so pleased with. my aunts love her too! haha.
i'm posted to sheares hall. hope mum lets me take up hostel. it'll be fun! for once i'm looking forward to something in uni. well vcf too of course (:
i'm in no mood to blog now, just thought i'd update everyone. ciaos! thanks for whoever who prayed (:
LOST.
that's exactly how i'm feeling right now. it seems like all my friends are going to faculty of arts and social sciences at nus or ntu accountancy or some bio course. and dear jeanetter right here knows enough people going to science with her that she can use her hands and count them all. let's see. gabriel cheow (in 2 years' time), zitian, whee geok. these are the only people i know who are confirm going to science. how about VCF? uhhh. me and me alone. am i going to join NUS Choir? i have no idea. mr kwei asked me to, but i haven't given him an answer yet.
then there's my granny. she's in hospital right now, having an op tomorrow morning. from what i hear, there's lots of risks involved for tomorrow's op. i'm trying to act like it's going to be okay, but deep down in me i'm all flustered. scared. very very scared. i don't want to lose her. she's looked after me ever since i can remember and i'd have to say that she's got lotsa patience when dealing with a naughty kid like me! all i want is for her to wake up after the op tomorrow. to recover. i want my granny.
i'm scared and lost. i need a hug. i need to hear that everything's going to be alright. so many changes going on in my life all at once, i'm not sure if i can cope.
God, help.
here's something sandra asked me to do. haha.

Jesus, Take The Wheel - Carrie Underwood
She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
On a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy with the baby in the backseat
Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline
It's been a long hard year
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
She was going way to fast
Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
She didn't even have time to cry
She was sooo scared
She threw her hands up in the air
Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this all on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
And the car came to a stop
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock
And for the first time in a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life
I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight
Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this all my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Oh, Jesus take the wheel
Oh, I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
Oh, take it, take it from me
Oh, whah, ohJust a reflection of the
shitty life I'm having now. It's in times like these when I feel like the girl in the song, i'm letting go, letting God.
And I really applaud Carrie Underwood for her song. Whether it is a delibrate effort or not, I love this song and I love it that someone possibly as influential as her is singing about God.
Jesus, take the wheel, take my life and make it wholly thine.

ARISE!
joel mason law, you are one big bag of funnyness! heeheeheeeeee!
oh man joel is SERIOUSLY a joker. oh and you do look very funny (in a nice way, not weird funny..) when you were "pouting" cos we all teased you. okay okay.. we won't tease you and AHEM AHEM AHEM anymore. heehee! (:
Today's uncle brendon's 50th birthday! (((: so we sang this for him...
Yo! My name is Brendon!
And i work all around the world
i have a wife called cathie and 2 grandkids
one day cathie came to me and said, hey brendon are you busy and i said no.
play the keyboard with your
left hand!
dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang dang!
then we replaced the "left hand" with the following words... just adding on the actions.
-right hand
-left foot
-right foot
-head
-backside
-tongue
Anyhows, ARISE is over! -breathes a sigh of relief- no more hectic rush to ARISE practices and rehearsals, though i must admit i'm a little sad. the ARISE family is so close and so wonderful, we've seen miracles happen together, and now that ARISE is over, we're parting ways again. But i thank God for every single person in ARISE. you have all blessed me in more ways than you can imagine, from the dancers, to the praisers, to the choir, to the crews, not forgetting uncle john [okay sometimes i call you pastor john too.] everyone. all of you are shining beacons. (((((:
today happened all too quickly. lots of kids were sick, but we still persevered on, and devil, here's a reminder that you're UNDER OUR FEET. yes you, because JESUS has triumphed. we have the victory! boo-hoo to you! so we still sang and danced and enjoyed ourselves while praising God.
When God is pleased, I am pleased.Thank God for miraculous healing of many kids today, and 113 kids came to know christ in the afternoon session alone! (: Praise God! (:
I have seen Your mighty works. my faith is strengthened.
i worship a miracle-worker
it's amazing how God can heal people. well, i think He's like a human mechanic - He made us, therefore only He knows what exactly is the matter. (:
had a bad cold, my fever was making me feel delirious (still a little groggy) and i can hardly stay awake for more than 2 hours at a go. when i went to the doctor's yesterday, my mum thought it to just be a normal fever, but apparently my temperature read 38.8 degrees. and when i was sleeping on the couch, i heard my mum say.. oh dear, your temperature's going up and up! so i suppose it shot past 39 degrees.. but anyhows, this morning when i woke up, poof it was gone! (: 36.8degrees. perfect. even so, i was still feeling unbalanced. when i was on stage with auntie cathie and the other ARISE people, there were several times when i felt like i was going to just pass out. but thank God, i didn't. was good! (:
you know what? God i believe in you! (:
Looking back...
~I realise that I've found some great friends and some not so great friends.
~I've got a long list people whom i look up to and admire.
~I've learnt so much from the ARISE! family. It's so great to be with people who constantly build you up. I love the ARISE! family (:
~I've been through such a roller-coaster ride.
~Deep down inside, I'm still a kiddo.
~There's no such thing as "friends forever". Not on this earth anyway.
~I need to treasure those REAL FRIENDS more. (:
Did you know that the Clancys are awesome? (:
GDOP
Global Day Of Prayer

thank you auntie ruth for the message, and deniece for the phonecall! uhm... i'll try to remember to bring your south korean flag, auntie ruth! (: and thanks for the shirt. it's really more comfy now (:
