Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

Thank God!!!!!!
My computer did not crash on me. It weirded out this morning when I restarted the com without waiting for it to finish loading. Had to call out for SOS lor. 虚惊一场. Turned out okay after I let it rest for 10 secs before restarting again for the last time before doing any recovery. And lo and behold, it started normally. I've learnt my lessons well now - never stop the loading process and shut down the system properly and to always do back up. Shall invest in a couple of DVD-RWs like JF says. Hahaha.
Anyway, we celebrated church's 99th anniversary on saturday. It wasn't a very grand event haha. Less than half the usual congregation turned up, but I think that's normal ba. Perhaps things will be better for the 100th. After all it's really something to commerate for. It's really God's grace to keep a church standing for 100 years - to think we nearly face closing down. I think if I should be proud to say I'm the fourth generation in that church and "fourth generation" itself is damn impressive. If I know anyone who is also a 4th generation believer, I would be absolutely impressed hahah. This really shows how God has watch over the family yeah? Not because the family is big so He take cares but I don't know, He has his plans. My extended family are coming in bit by bit. Someone told me if all my family members come down to church, we would have been way lot bigger than the Lee family. Haha. But well, we'll see if that will come in time. =]
she was the center of attraction that day hahaha. whenever she's running around, no one really listens to choir up on stage.
He looks damn sian right? hhahaha. but he's very zai la. should see him in action.
Hosanna. Let's never try to fail each other.
Basketball on sunday. Finally got my tan. I seriously think I'm too fair. It's a far cry from what I used to have when there were PE lessons hahhaha. I'm not going for the uber sporty kind of tan but at least not the pallor which one associate with sickness or the "never been under the sun for too long" or the "爱美” syndrome. Yah.. Haha. I'm ego in that way.
Got to go for some meeting and back to study and to lessons. Sighs.

I want to eat sushi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sakae is good enough.
Somebody please go with me.
Then again, I don't know how long this craving will last. It may just be an insane idea due to late-night studying coupled with seeing people's msn stating that they were eating supper.
Cripes.
I really should go sleep now. Or else I'll continue dwelling on things which I'm not supposed and don't want to dwell on.

Ain't she cute? *smiles*
Now that I've got photoshop, I should learn how to make nice pictures/avatars. But I guess certainly not this semester. Whoever says JC is harder than Uni ought to be shot! Hahaha. Oh well, it certainly adds some spice to life.

-Dreaming with a Broken Heart-
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll out of bed and down on your knees
And for a moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering: was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No, she's not...
'Cause she's gone gone gone gone gone
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with her crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering, could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
But she can't...
'Cause she's gone gone gone gone gone
Now do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses, with roses in my hand?
And would you get them if I did?
No you won't...
'Cause you're gone gone gone gone gone
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
Now I know where C gets that part of her nick from. Hmm. John Mayer has a nice voice. I have his "Daughters" song. Anyone has this too? Maybe I should go ask yq. He has 100 and a million songs. Hahahah. Or even WL. He too has a wide collection..

-Burn Out Bright-
Does it have to start with a broken heart
Broken dreams and bleeding parts
We were young and world was clear
But young ambition disappears
I swore it would never come to this
The average, the obvious
I’m still discontented down here
I’m still discontented
If we’ve only got one try
If we’ve only got one life
If time was never on our side
Then before I die
I want to burn out bright
A spark ignites
In time and space
Limping through this human race
You bite and claw your way back home
But you’re running the wrong way
The future is a question mark
Of kerosene and electric sparks
There’s still fire in you yet
Yeah there’s still fire in you!
I keep cleaning up the mess I’ve made
I won’t run away
I can’t sleep in the bed I’ve made
Hmm Switchfoot. Mainstream christian band. No explicit messages. Wonder if anyone's soul is screaming of such yearning. To make a difference. Hmm..

You watch the season pull up its own stakes,
And catch the last weekend of the last week,
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced.
Another sun soaked season fades away.
You have stolen my heart.
You have stolen my heart.
Invitation only grand farewells.
Crash the best one, of the best ones.
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight.
You have stolen my heart.
You have stolen my heart.
And from the bar room floor we are a celebration.
One good stretch before our hibernation.
Our dreams assured and we all will sleep well, sleep well.
Sleep well, sleep well, sleep well.
You have stolen,
You have stolen,
You have stolen my heart.
I watch you spin around in the highest heels.
You are the best one, of the best ones.
We all look like we feel.
You have stolen my,
You have stolen my,
You have stolen my heart.

-So Long, So Long-
Hand out the window,
Floatin’ on air.
Just a flip of the wrist,
And I am wavin’ you goodbye.
Drive past the lifeguard stand,
Where I'd sit around waitin' for you to remember.
As I drive...
How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes,
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying.
And how the grace with which she walked into your life,
Will stay with you in your steps, and pace with you a while.
For so long, so long.
So long, so long.
The speaker in this door is blown,
So nothin' sounds quite right.
Takin' my time, takin' this drive, wavin' this town goodbye.
I drive this ocean road and remember,
The small of your back,
The nape of your neck.
I remember everything as I drive,
Wavin' this town goodbye.
How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes,
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying.
And how the grace with which she walked into your life,
Will stay with you in your steps, and pace with you a while.
For so long, so long, so long, so long, so long, so long.
So long, so long.
So long, so long. (Takin' my time, takin' this drive,)
So long, so long. (Wavin' this town goodbye.)
So long, so long.
So long, so long.
So long, so long.
And I will leave under the cover,
Of summer’s kiss upon the sky.
Like the stone face of your lover,
Just before she says goodbye.
I was certain that the season could be held between my arms,
But just as summer’s hold is fleeting.
I was here but now,
I’m gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone, I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone. (So long, so long.)

-Dusk and Summer-
She smiled in a big way;
The way a girl like that smiles,
When the world is hers.
And she held your eyes,
Out in the breezeway, down by the shore,
In the lazy summer.
And she pulled you in.
And she bit your lip.
And she made you hers.
She looked deep into you as you lay together,
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer.
But you've already lost.
But you've already lost.
But you've already lost.
When you only had barely enough to hang on.
And she combed your hair.
And she kissed your teeth.
And she made you better than you’d been before.
And she told you bad things you wished you could change,
In the lazy summer.
And she told you, laughing down to her core,
So she would not cry,
As she lay in your lap.
And she said, "Nobody here can live forever;
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer."
But you've already lost.
But you've already lost.
But you've already lost.
When you only had barely enough to hang on.
She said "No one is alone the way you are alone."
And you held her looser than you would’ve if you ever could've known.
Some things tie your life together,
With slender threads and things to treasure.
Days like that should last and last and last.
But you've already lost.
But you've already lost.
But you've already lost.
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on.
Hang on.
Hang on.
Hang on.
My favourite band of the moment! =]]]]]]]]]]
