Die Calculus! Die!
Ok, probably not... At least not literally... Just, go away :)

Finally done with that. Not gonna talk much about that because I don't wanna be so negative about it, neither am I gonna be foolish to proclaim everything went well. It didn't.

For now, I'm putting trust in God and focusing on the rest first. Till then. More prayers needed ;) Muchos appreciated! Econs tmr, then Accounting..

Came across this verse last night before I closed my eyes to rest. Hope it encourages you too :)

1 Peter 5:7 Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about what happens to You.

Matthew 6:27 Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?

Smile kids. Smile.
Don't lose the joy of life. Truly.
Things will get better. And they will :)
Exams on Monday. And then the holidays with a list of things to accomplish.
A sneak peak on the list:
4. Write a song
And yes, we have began the process of getting a good hook tune to it already. Now, anyone has a Mac to lend me?
Life is only what you make it to be. And I'm gonna make it Mine :)

Sweet..

First the rain..
Then LeeHom's new album..

Lovely Sunday afternoon, with not so lovely circumstances around me

Had not finish my Calculus take home test, had not finish my economics final project..
And there I layed on my bed staring at the rain and sky, listening to the tunes of LeeHom..


As I lazed there, thoughts began to sprang... of You, of Life, of my exams (OMG 1 week countdown!), Calculus (OMG?!), friends, Family, Dog?, LeeHom (hHAHAhahhahAHAHhahaa)...


Thing was, I was so sunked in the depression that I didn't want myself to get out. There I was again, worrying about my exam. Worrying. Yes, Worrying. Time and time again i fall into this hole of "worry-nism". Hate it, but it sticks with you. Time to get out of the mud hole and start working towards the goal. Sigh. Though I don't wanna begin with defeat, but I know I started this semester in bad terms, so, gotta face the consequences..


Oh, and the Dog you ask? The verdict? NO


Living with that decision too. Dad decided instaed to get a car~
Yeah, Car vs. Dog
You see, irronicly, I don't get a dog because I'll be leaving next year, but thing is, if we get a car, I'll be leaving next year too. So like... ~.~" We'll see how things work out la.


Till then, LeeHom's new album RAWKSSSSSS!!! Not so chinked-out anymore, very much more emo as Caryn said. I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEE >.< ABY, EE JIN, RYN, and urrrr~ ben?(hahahaha) and everyone else, lets go!! Woohoo!.. Sorry, forgive me "hyperness".. LeeHom fan here (:


Alright. Enough crap for the night. Its calculus for the week! Urgh~
Getting into studio this hol. Probably get some emo song up soon :P


Till then, enjoy the rain people!

Lebih Dari Pemenang
Lebih dari pemenang
Dalam Segala perkara
Iblis telah dikalahkan
Oleh kuasa darahnya
Jika Allah di pihak kita
Siapa dapat melawan
Kita lebih dari Pemenang

Hallelujah
Kibarkanlah panjinya
Yesus Raja segala Raja!

Its funny how songs can speak to us. When I was in Indonesia, this particular song spoke quite a bit to me. It really woke me up to realisation that its more than being the winner (thats the title of the song). It goes on to say that when God is on our side, no one can be against us. Sweet :)

Sis is back in Perth now. Lonely nights again, miss sis already ): And I'm currently on my bed with the laptop stealing a wireless internet line somewhere nearby :P Hahahha.. Was just randomly bringing the laptop to my room to watch a movie before I slept last night and just decided to check if there was a line, and low and behold, I found a free access line. Let's just pray the person won't discover me here :P

For now, I'm all cosy in bed, dreaming of my little puppy which I want to own soon. The verdict will be tomorrow. Parents just got back from Singapore, gonna have discussion with Dad over breakfast tomorrow morning. He will have to give me an answer by tomorrow morning if I can get the Pommy or not because he is gonna leave for Surabaya tomorrow afternoon and only get back on Friday and by then, little baby would have been sold already. So, hope along peeps. I really want this boy so badly. I could practically hear him calling out my name. I've visited the shop 4 times now since Saturday. The shop owner must think I'm planning some robbery.

Finals exactly in 2 weeks from now. Have to get prepped up ESPECIALLY for calculus. Agreed with Hariz to have group study sessions but I hope it will work out in time for the exam.

Sorry for the lack of pictures in this post. Don't have any on this com. Pray that the next post will be on my new little pup. And yes, I think I already have a name for him :P

Dear Lord,
I thank You Lord, for I am truly blessed. I have seen your blessings and your glory so now let me share it with the people around me. Allow me to spread the joy you have given me and family. May you keep my family close to your heart and watch our household each day as dawn breaks and as the moonlight shines, may you protect our little home and grant each of us good health each day. I am ever in debt to You my Lord, Father and Friend. I can't thank You enough. Truly, you are good, in all times. Good and Bad. Continue to see me through my days as well as in each of my friends' lives. You've been good, and you will be good. All glory to your Name, Lord..!
Amen!

In Christ Alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ Alone


It has been a long one week plus since I have got back from Jakarta and back into the cycle of life. It has been crazyyy since. 2 major test and 1 more coming this Friday!! AHhhhHH! I've not been out and homework has been crazy. But all is good. Still surviving. Thats why I make it a point, school days - Home, Holidays - AWAY!.. hahaha

Sis is back from Perth for 2 weeks and she will be back again in September. What's up man? So easy to come back when you're working meh? Hahaha.. She's blessed ;) I'm pumped up for worship this weekend. Let's just pray that all things will run smoothly in His presence this Sunday! Wooohooo! And you're invited :P

Nothing has been happening much lately, though I too am very much peer pressured to make this Saturday a memorable one. Hmmm.. Wonder what I'll plan. Probably another jazz gig. Hmmm.. Any takers? :P Yeah, thats actually a very good idea. Invitation open, just ask! :P

However, my main point for blogging tonight is to simple dedicate this post to 3 special people I've known :)

FIRSTLY, Super-Sexy-Uncle-Chan-Yee-En

Yes, Ernnie.. Well, I've got to say, it has been eternity since the last time I've met him. En, I've got to say he is one remarkable dude. He just has leadership and personality stamped all over him. Ever ready to stand up and not shy away from circumstances, and ever willing to help a friend in need. Though I have to admit we have drifted somewhat, but it stays. The memories and the things you've done for me. I admire you dude. I truly dude. And I pray you continue to be that strong friend to everyone around you. But take it easy man, sometimes, heroes need a rest too :P Rock on my dear friend! Happy 18th bro!


SECONDLY, The-Mini-Size-Smaller-than-Guitar-Boy-Isaac-Lim-Huan-Wei

Isaac has to be the first prefect that sticked with me throughout our prefect life since form 1. He has grown sooooo much ever since! Physically as well as mentally. He is taller than me ok!!! hahahah.. I'd just love talking music with him and getting input from him over computer stuff :P Hahahah.. I know you've always been there man. Its just cute to see how you've really matured and its you who is giving me the better advices and support. Truly, I cherish every moment we have and every moment we WILL have man ;) Hahaha.. I love your laughs man... :P The giggles. All the best to you and dear Sophie ok? :P Stick with her, tight. Happy 18th man. (Pssss, You're legal! Haha)



THIRDLY, The-Best-Bro-Cum-Mentor-Leng-Chai-Lim-Jo-Weng

This one never cease to amaze me everytime we talk. Its like I'm only getting to know him everytime. This guy is one interesting dude and totally unpredictable. The more I get to know you man, the more I see how fantastic of a person you are. Thank you boy, for everything from my red shirt (which you still have~~), to the drinks :P You never know how much of an impact you have done in my life. Truly, sometimes, I can be totally hopeless but you're always there to shine back hope into the seemingly hopeless situation. Get it?.. Hahahah.. Its alright. As long as you know that I'll be there for you as much as you have been there for me bro. Cherishing every moment spent. Happy 20th uncle! Gone are the teen years for you. Muahaha.

So there it is. I do apologies if I have phrased anything the wrong way. Thank you guys, for being my friend. Truly. 3 very special people :) Alrighty... Its gonna be another long remainder of week till the weekend. :( Pray my soar throat won't get worst. Oh, and I'm gonnna try a new concept now. I'm gonna end every post with a prayer to God :) I'm just gonna pray to Him just like how you can too. Simple, direct and true :) Try it one day. It helps :) Anyway, have a great week ahead! God loves you, and so do I! ZZzzZzZzzzz

Dear God,

I pray you give me strength and tenacity beyond myself. It is gonna be a long month till my exams end of this month. I do pray that I'll stay focus and I'll finish my work on time. Lord, sustain my health and I pray I'll please you in everything I do. Continue to guide me in my everyday, and continue to be my source of light. I choose to trust You and I know You'll never fail me. Oh, And I surrender this week's worship into your hands! Use me Lord, Use the whole team!

Amen!!

God bless,
