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
About me

Psalm 23
1. The Lord is my shepherd;
I have all that I need.
2. He lets me rest in green meadows;
he leads me beside peaceful streams.
3. He renews my strength.
He guides me along right paths,
bringing honor to his name.
4. Even when I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will not be afraid,
for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff
protect and comfort me.
5. You prepare a feast for me
in the presence of my enemies.
You honor me by anointing my head with oil.
My cup overflows with blessings.
6. Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will live in the house of the Lord
forever.
I stared at the cold crystal waters in Lata. I wondered who made such beautiful streams. Everywhere I go, I see my Father's fingerprints. I wish I could tell You I trust You enough. I wish I would not take You for granted sometimes. I wish I could give You my undivided heart. I wish I could easily let go of worldly treasures in my heart. Yet, whenever I feel Im not good enough, You do not reprimand me or put guilt in me. Such loving words You put into my ears to remind me that You are always close enough, near enough to grab hold of me when Im tired, generous enough to bless me abundantly, strong enough to remove my fears, gentle enough to let me rest peacefully. Thank You Lord!

This is my first ODAC trip to Lata Berembun! I went there from 24th Sep - 26th Sep. It was so fun man! Shall update more about this trip another time. I made wonderful friends there, saw really beautiful sceneries, stars, durians, snake, and brought back many scars as souvenirs.

4-wheel drive. It was like a roller coaster ride!
Always wear your life jacket when you are going to a waterfall. My ODAC friends are all so fun to be with!

Joel, Shu and I went to Chinese Garden to see the mid-autumn festival decorations. When we reached there, we were saddened that there was an entrance fee of $15 per person!!!! I thought going to Chinese Garden was always free! Anyway, we went to gaze at the stars and talk at a nearby park instead. Then Joel wanted to relieve himself, so we went to look for a toilet. And guess what?! As we walked past the entrance of Chinese Garden, we realised that there were no security guards and ticket selling personnel around. So we just walked in... filled with fear that someone may chase us out for walking in illegally. Ahh!!! But the moment we went in, we started running around the place and taking pictures. I cant believe we got in for free! haha! Thank You Lord!! You are so wonderful to us!

Here's an update on the life of Elizabeth Thia! Thanks to all those who came to encourage me about my voice. Im really touched!
This is the breadfruit which Mong and I went to pluck in NIE. The process of plucking it was soOO fun man! We had to see if there was anyone looking at us. Anyway, this fruit can be eaten after boiling it. It tastes like potato. Cell bonding with my sec3s! We had a great time of badminton man!
Life in NTU is made fun by these people! They make lectures, tutorials and seminars less boring. Im so excited to go to school!
Weiling and I! Oh ya, did you all noticed that I dyed my hair too?? haha My clone - Spencer! If he were a girl, he may win a pageant... ok maybe not... Peishan and I! I went to room in with her during the week. It was so fun to be sleeping in school. This was the bed I slept on. Huijun, Peili and I. Peili LOVESS taking photos man. And finally, Jenny and Tiffany. Together with Peili, they can keep themselves occupied by taking pictures for hours man!

How Can I Keep From Singing - Chris Tomlin
"How can I keep from singing Your praise??"..."I know I am loved by the king"...
I couldn't continue singing this song in church on Sun. Tears choked my voice. The resounding words "I know I am loved by the King" kept playing in my heart and my mind. Father, thank You for sending Your comfort and encouragement to me.
I went to a specialist to check my hoarse throat on Fri and seems like an operation may be necessary to remove a cyst from my throat. The doctors say I still cant sing for church. The news was shocking to me. But Im not afraid of the operation. Im just saddened by the fact that I can't sing with all my strength to the Lord. You know, there'll be this fear like "Am I singing too much?? I better not sing because my voice may get worse". My own human mind was thinking that some people use their voice to speak vulgarities, lie, quarrel, hurt others. I want to use my voice to encourage, worship the Lord, bring joy to people, tell everyone of a greater importance in life... but something must stand in the way. I broke down in the train and was so embarrassed that people may be looking at me! But the still, small voice of God spoke to me that it is alright to be weak because in my weakness, God will show Himself strong. How wonderful to be able to lean on God for support and strength!
"The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?" Psalm 27:1
I'll write more if I can't talk more. I'll worship You with my guitar if I can't sing more. I will bless others with deeds of love if I can't love them with my voice. I'll be a better listener, if I can't be a better storyteller.
