Who am i
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

Today my little brother, Tim, and I had an arguement in the car...Tim: Dear Lord, I pray that today it will rain so that tennis lesson will be easier. (He said it's because he doesnt have to do so many warm-ups when it rains)Me: Eh Tim Tim, Jie Jie don't want it to rain! If not my slippers will get wet!Me: Dear Lord, I pray that it wouldn't rain today, if not my slippers will get wet. Amen.Tim: Dear Lord, I pray that You wouldn't listen to my sister. Please let it rain today. Amen! (Then he looked at me and said "Haha!") And guess what happened today??? It rained! It rained super heavily man! So God answered Tim's prayers instead. Not fair Lord!! Just because Tim is younger, FATTER, cuter and still a child doesn't mean that I have lesser child-like faith! haha. On another note, I read this verse during the week: "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favour from the Lord" Proverbs 18:22Haha! God says HE who finds a wife, and not SHE who finds a husband... So, its the guy's job to be brave and make the first move, and not the other way round. And see! I know God is protective over the girls. From this verse, God is saying "Wife= good, brings favour from God"! How come the world always seems to say that getting a wife is the start of problems?? That's not true man!!

School has started. Im in NTU right now, not Ngee Ann Poly already k. Thank You Lord for blessing me with new friends like Jenny, Weiling, Peili, Joanna, Amos, Edison, Spencer, Huijun, Pei Shan etc etc. And guess what? I joined ODAC (Outdoor Adventure Club)! Don't see me look like Tofu means cannot climb mountain ok! Well, lots of funny things have happened in school, though I've only been there for 2 weeks. Thank You Father for adding joy to my life! 1. Our first day was orientation day, meaning getting to know your classmates. I went to see which group I belonged to first before helping Liting see hers. I kept remembering her group number that when I reached the hall, I forgot my group number! Was it group 12 or 11?? So I went to Group 12..... which was the wrong class!!! And I spent the whole day getting to know them, only to find out at the end of the day that I had gone to the wrong class. haha! I find it sooo funny man. But the people there were really nice!
2. Weiling accompanied me to NIE bookshop to purchase my books. She led me safely to NIE, but when it was my turn to lead her OUT of NIE, we ended up in some ulu place! And we still had lessons in about 10min time! We were half panicking and half laughing man. But not to fret! I brought my map! But it made us feel worse, because we realised that we were very very very far away from our next destination. I was praying that God will send us a cab. And immediately, a cab appeared!! Haha, and the uncle did not know where our next destination was, so we ended up touring round the school for awhile. We were just abit late for lessons. Having Weiling around is fun, she really lightens up the atmosphere!
3. Oh, I spotted breadfruits in NIE! They are green, round, about the size of a pomelo. They taste like potato after cooking. I wanted to pluck them, but they were too high for me to reach. Mong will accompany me to secretly pluck it down one day. There are lots of edible plants in NTU! Just that no one really knows that they can be eaten. My hands are itching to pluck the leaves...
The thing I like most about school is that it is soooOO beautiful! It feels like a resort. And my secondary school buddies are mostly in NTU!! Seeing the sky, the trees, the lush green grass, the birds flying away so freely, how can anyone say that there is no God who created all these? My heavenly Father who feeds the sparrows and clothes the lilies will take care of me.
"26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?" (Matthew 6: 26-27)
Im thinking of my lovely Sec3 boys and girls. Seeing each of them growing in love for the Lord and maturing in character makes me really encouraged.
My 5 handsome mascots for sports day! LAME! (oh oh, Im not sure if I can put this picture up)
My entire sec3 cell - "Why Not", together with Andy and Vennie! (hey pple, we've just changed our cell name k).
Dear why nots, you all are very blessed, because many of you have already found what many older ones are still searching for. You have found the path of life. Life is not just following the routine and system of the world, getting married, work and die. Living with the Lord makes everything so meaningful and worthwhile and delightful. Living and walking with the Lord is our path of LIFE.

I looked through my Tioman pictures today and reminisce the times we had together. Today, I just really miss my childhood friends... School has started, army life has started, working life has started. Time has a way of separating us.
Jarmiss Low (James) is the only one who will ever do the stupidest stuff with me and make me laugh. Also well-known as my twin. Thank God he isnt in army. He is wearing a wig here.
Gay Kahwan, the sleeping monster, has entered into his commando life. I wouldnt even mind or complain now if you kept nua-ing around whenever we're together. Just to see you around during the weekends, safe and coping well, is already a blessing.
Gene, my most handsome brother, hasnt gone to army, but he's so busy with working life. And it's been so long since Ive seen you smile Gene. Sometimes, I really wish I could make you laugh forever. 
Joel Chia is my closest and bestest guy friend! It seems like forever to see him during the weekends. But still, he always does us proud. He is doing so well in army now, I hope... Haha. It's quite nice to see him in his army uniform. Feels like he has grown so much to become a man!
Alekx!! Wah, i miss your laughter, your voice, your joyful spurts of action. I wish I were in Australia with you. I think I wouldnt give you so much prob as your roommate? haha. Church feels different without you. Cell feels different too. 
hahah, this is Joanne Foo, the most muscular woman in cell. Actually, Im really glad I got to talk more heart to heart with you this year. There are not many people I feel close to, but you are one the few I can connect with. For all the years of friendship and growing up together, I really really appreciate and thank God for this friendship. 
hhahah, but how can I forget this person! Shu has started work in church office. And i miss all the sad times, God times, troubled times, happy times, funny time, talking times, stupid times, cell time, everytime. My most treasured friend and sister. You love me more than your coconut pudding... eh, now I have a new one. I love you more than my Ocarina! haha. I dont want to ever think when you will leave to be a missionary. I don't want to ever think when I'll be challenged to release you. I don't want to ever think when you will get a bf, get married and start a family. I don't want to ever think of the future being so negative except that we'll have more blessed and God created moments together.
A gathering of childhood friends
Hammocking away above the river is soooOO fun!
Getting ready to snorkel. We are the 3 beauties... right right??!
Amidst the beautiful sceneries, it's your faces I'd rather see...
