Tell me that you love me, and that can carry me throughout my days without you.

I stand up high plunge in this splendid city tonight
There＇s no one but me with gravity I can measure life
I try to hide from your love and pride
So many times I found myself lose in this wonderland and cry
How can I define all these blue doors ahead
Tell me secrets and then make me wild isn＇t the ture love inside
I rise and compare my hand with this city tonight
There＇s no one but me and silently I get down and smile
I try to hide from your love and pride
So many times I found myself lose in this wonderland and cry
How can I define all these blue doors ahead
Tell me secrets and then make me wild isn＇t the ture love inside
I rise and compare my hand with this city tonight
There＇s no one but me and silently I get down and smile
I get down and smile ， I get down and smile .

Big Girls Don't Cry lyrics
Songwriters: Ferguson, Stacy; Gad, Tobias;

The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
To be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do

And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry

The path that I'm walkin', I must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do

And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry

Like the little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and Uno cards
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine
Valentine

Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to hold yours too
We'll be playmates and lovers
And share our secret worlds

But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself, and center
Clarity, peace, serenity

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do

And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry

Two Is Better Than One Lyrics

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought
"Hey, you know, this could be something"
'Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes my breath away
And now I'm left with nothing

So maybe it's true
That I can't live without you
And maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember every look upon your face
The way you roll your eyes
The way you taste
You make it hard for breathing
'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everything's okay
I'm finally now believing

That maybe it's true
That I can't live without you
And maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought, "Hey,"

Maybe it's true
That I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking
I can't live without you
'Cause, baby, two is better than one
But there's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
But I'll figure it out
When all is said and done
Two is better than one
Two is better than one

Rhythm Of Love lyrics

My head is stuck in the clouds
She begs me to come down
Says "Boy quit foolin' around"
I told her "I love the view from up here
Warm sun and wind in my ear
We'll watch the world from above
As it turns to the rhythm of love"

We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the Music low and swing to the rhythm of love

My heart beats like a drum
A guitar string to the strum
A beautiful song should be sung
She's got blue eyes deep like the sea
That roll back when she's laughing at me
She rises up like the tide
The moment her lips meet mine

We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the Music low and swing to the rhythm of love

When the moon is low
We can dance in slow motion
And all your tears will subside
All your tears will dry

Ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba
Da da-da dum Da da-da dum
ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba ba-ba
Da da-da dum Da da-da dum

And long after I've gone
You'll still be humming along
And I will keep you in my mind
The way you make love so fine

We may only have tonight
But till the morning sun you're mine all mine
Play the music low and swing to the rhythm of love
Ohhhhhh
Play the music low and swing to the rhythm of love
Yeah swing to the rhythm of love

Dr AR Bernard part 2
Pearls - formed in the oyster with parasitic infestation - from the sea(speaks of nation, oyster is tossed around spiritual immoral situation, darkness, turmoil, chaos, confusion )

Continue to go through the process of forming into something precious ( Jesus christ will come forth )

We are called to be the light of the world - if there is no darkness, there's no need for light. God has placed us in the darkness to shine for Him.

Formed in the image of Christ, formed in the midst of chaos, storms, confusion but were given assurance from God.

Matt 7:24-25(NLT)
"Anyone who listens to my teachings and follows it wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won't collapse because it is built on bedrock. "

V25- though ( despite the fact that )

Storms are facts of life ( violent disturbance)
While God is shaping u, you are gonna experience storms.

3 reasons storms comes

1) disobedience( jonah's storm)
Jonah taking the storm lightly while the rest are all anxious and praying to their God.

When u know what's right but you're doing it wrong anyway.
Or u let someone else talk you to doing something else.

Jonah fall asleep - when u are disobedient, u have false sense of what is going on.

Leads you to a place of self-pity, u began to feel that you are a victim.

Too fed up - I'm the problem, it's my fault, throw me overboard. When ppl thinks u are, u will eventually throw u over.

Landed in the belly of the whale, then he repented.

What got him out? : repentance- accepting responsibilities ( obedience )

2) obedience ( disciple's storm )
They followed God's instruction to go onto the boat.

Dun deal with it but expect God's divine intervention!!

3) other people's decision ( paul's storm )

You dun have a say about it.

You never know how God is gonna answer your prayers.
Learn to trust God and know what God has for us. Cos He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ (Phil 1:6)

Storms comes on - as a body of Christ , church, local level, individually

No matter what the fact is, God is purposed to do what He has to do.

Ride it out and thank God that it's over, at the end of the storm, you will come out stronger than before you went in.

Trust God and believe God in everything u put ur hands into cos God is faithful!

Build up resistance!!

(I love, I love, I love, I love the way you hold me)
I’ve had a long day I just wanna relax
Don’t have time for my friends, no time to chit-chat
Problems at my job, wonderin’ what to do
I know I should be working but I’m thinking of You and
Just when I feel this crazy world is gonna bring me down
That’s when Your smile comes around

Oo, I love the way You hold me, by my side You’ll always be
You take each and everyday, make it special in some way
I love the way you hold me, in Your arms I’ll always be
You take each and everyday, make it special in some way
I love You more than the words in my brain can express
I can’t imagine even loving You less

Lord, I love the way You hold me
Whoa whoa
Oh whoa, I love the way You hold me
Whoa whoa

Well Ya, took my day and You flipped it around
Calmed the title wave and put my feet on the ground
Forever in my heart, always on my mind
It’s crazy how I think about You all of the time
And just when I think I’m bout to figure You out
You make me wanna sing and shout

Oo, I love the way You hold me, by my side You’ll always be
You take each and everyday, make it special in some way
I love the way You hold me, in Your arms i’ll always be
You take each and everyday, make it special in some way
I love You more than the words in my brain can express
I can’t imagine even loving You less

Lord, I love the way You hold me
Whoa whoa
Oh whoa, I love the way You hold me
Whoa whoa
I’m so grateful and thankful for all You’ve done
Wish I could tell You in a short story or poem
But, all I have is my voice and this guitar
And You have my heart

Oo, I love the way You hold me, by my side You’ll always be
You take each and everyday, make it special in some way
Oh, I love the way You hold me, in Your arms I’ll always be
You take each and everyday…

Oo, I love the way You hold me, by my side You’ll always be
You make each and everyday, oh so special
Oh, I love the way You hold me, in Your arms I’ll always be
You take each and everyday, make it special in some way
I love You more than the words in my brain can express
I can’t imagine even loving You less

Lord, I love the way You hold me
Whoa whoa
Oh whoa, I love the way You hold me
Whoa whoa
Oh, I love
(I love, I love, I love, I love the way You hold me)

This is my devotion
This is all I know
This is all I have to bring

A life laid down in worship
To honour You my King
I live to glorify Your Name

Now my past is swept away
By the sacrifice You've made
I am Yours set my heart on fire for You

Take my life take it all I surrender heart and soul
From now on I live for You
Take my life take it all I surrender heart and soul
From now on I live for You only You

In every joy and heartbreak
In trial and temptation
Be the centre of my heart

刘畊宏 - 幸福的距离
窗外开始下起毛毛雨
云遮住了星星
夜深了还没有睡意
翻来覆去的想你
时钟滴答滴答的声音
像在说我爱你
转过2点3点到6点
恨不得快点见到你
幸福的距离就算万公里
在你眼里有我想要勇气
从南极飞到北极南京到北京
你的笑胜过那些美景
我们勾勾手就一言为定
我会傻傻的好好的爱你
你的名加我的姓
永远在一起
拥抱多过千言万语

"I'm All About You"

There's somethin' that
I've got to say
You're always with me
Even though, you're far away
Talkin to you on my cell
Just the sound of your voice
Makes my heart melt
Oh girl, well it's true

I'm all about you
I'm all about us
No, baby, you never have
To question my love

And every night
There's a new crowd
But it's always you
That I'm singing about
There is only one these words
Are going out to
Oh girl, I'm all about you

I know you worry sometimes,
Some other girl will make me forget you're mine
There's not a doubt in this world
That anyone could take the
Place of my number one girl

It's true
I'm all about you
I'm all about us
No, baby, you never have
To question my love

And every night
There's a new crowd
But it's always you
That I'm singing about
There is only one these words
Are going out to

Oh girl, I'm all about you
When i close my eyes i can see you
It's like your right here
And this feeling's only gettin' stronger
You're with me everywhere

I'm all about you
I'm all about us
No, baby, you never have
To question my love

And every night
There's a new crowd
But it's always you
That I'm singing about
There is only one these words
Are goin' out to

Oh girl, I'm all about you
I'm all about you
I'm all about you
I'm all about you
I'm all about you....

Every time you pass a test, you increase in value to the Kingdom!! - AR Benard

2011-04-17T14:55:00.000+08:00

kindness doesn't go unanswered...

Even though it seems like thanks and acknowledgments for good deeds are in short supply, God notices them. When you feel like giving up because gratitude eludes, remember that God is delighted in your efforts. Don't stop showing kindness because you feel unappreciated, the author of good things appreciates you very much.

2011-04-10T11:55:00.003+08:00

today feels good. it's like seeing a rainbow after the rain. :)

it feels like if i close my eyes and think of u when i'm down, u'll be there brightening my darkest night. i will just have to call and u'll come running. :D

2011-04-09T11:04:00.004+08:00

I'm learning how to put my trust in you... It's hard but I'm still gonna try my best.

It takes courage to change direction. Choose the path your heart agrees with and walk with your head high and your eyes open. Don't be afraid. there are times when a change of direction is for your highest good.

this shall be the time and putting this in mind.. i think i will just go all out for it. i believe it's gonna be worthwhile.

2011-04-04T14:30:00.002+08:00

GO WITH THE FLOW!! :D

What makes people important? It's not just the happiness you feel when you're with them, but also the pain you feel when you miss them.

" You are mine forever" - the most selfish line but yet it's the sweetest words that we want to hear from the one we love.

2011-03-27T21:13:00.002+08:00

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side

When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too

When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through
The day and make it ok
I miss you

I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do

When you walk away I count the steps that you take
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/a/avril-lavigne-lyrics/when-you_re-gone-lyrics.html]

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah

And all I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah

When you're gone

Maybe i just expect too much. shouldn't put my expectations too high, cos it hurts real bad when things dun happen like u wish it would. i took it for granted cos i thought that u would and would gladly do. or maybe i should not use the words "took it for granted" after all to let u get the wrong idea. i guess it's all about putting my expectations too high. i expect too much.... :(

a soft answer turns away wrath

2011-03-25T09:48:00.001+08:00

a soft answer turns away wrath -
When everyone around you seems to be in bad spirits, bickering and complaining, take a step back. It's so easy to answer in kind, but instead feel into your heart and answer gently. Let peace radiate from you.

2011-03-25T09:42:00.002+08:00

Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, and the romance in the relationship, and you find that you still care for that person.

2011-03-25T09:15:00.002+08:00

when you start to accept your flaws, no one can use them to hurt you!!!

2011-03-22T10:10:00.001+08:00

I may not say "I miss you" all the time, but once I say those words, I'm sure nobody's missing you more than I do.

2011-03-18T11:46:00.003+08:00

God will never take anything away from you without giving you something so much better.

2011-03-15T14:56:00.000+08:00

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful,
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised
Thou wilt all our burdens bear;
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer.
Soon in glory bright, unclouded,
There will be no need for prayer—
Rapture, praise, and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.

trying to put it aside but it just wouldn't leave my mind. First time feeling so down going for dinner. :/ why am I feeling this way? :(

Psychological fact: emotional pains only last for 12mins. Anything longer than that is self-inflicted.

Am I self-inflicting? :/

Before the doors close

I'll fight and defend

何耀珊 - 你的肩膀

那些日子当你不在我身边
整个世界都不对哦
还能这样安静的和你依偎
受过的苦都无所谓哦
进进退退我们之间
故事有点迂回
轰轰烈烈哭过几回
从来没有后悔
依靠着你的肩膀
有风的味道也有雨的沧桑
为我去过了远方
还好爱是我最固执的地方
还好再长的夜总是会天亮
我终于等到你回来身旁哦
爱就是你的肩膀
能负担我的所有快乐悲伤
相信你许下的愿望
一辈子的时间那么的漫长
何必在乎当初寂寞多荒凉
我们的幸福会在下半场
为我去过了远方哦~
相信你许下的愿望yeah

Darrell Evans \ Trading My Sorrows
I'm trading my sorrow
I'm trading my shame
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord

I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord

Chorus:
And we say yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord Amen

I'm pressed but not crushed persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I'm blessed beyond the curse for his promise will endure
And his joy's gonna be my strength

Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morning

Don't take too long to say
I love you to the ones you love
Cause time has a habit of slipping away
And out on a clear blue sky
When lightning strikes on a sunny day
Just take me in and keep me from the rain

PRE CHORUS
And the words that seem so hard so say
Come out when you've gone away
Just stay a little while and hear me say

CHORUS
That I want you here tonight
And I need you by my side
For just one more moment
For just one more moment with you

VERSE 2
Turn away to say goodbye
With each and every word that passes by
Like a distant memory

And time keeps slipping away
And time will turn to grey
And time will be the one who holds you down

PRE CHORUS
CHORUS

BRIDGE
Sometimes time will treat you bad
Before you even know what's wrong
And in the end it hits you hard
Please tell me you'll be strong

MY FINAL SKETCH>>>>

2010-11-15T11:42:00.000+08:00

recession is also a time of great opportunity

Time and time again success has its roots in failure, because failure knocks you down from top of the hill so you can then climb a mountain. Yes it's unsettling, yes it's scary. But this can be your greatest opportunity in life, - if you choose it. The recession has cleared the space of clutter, - think what have you always wanted to do but brushed aside from the top of your hill? Now is the time...

The desert song

VERSE 1:
This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides

VERSE 2:
This is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flame

CHORUS:
I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

VERSE 3:
This is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand

CHORUS:
I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

BRIDGE:
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship (x4)

CHORUS:
I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here (x2)

VERSE 4:
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favour and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow

Hedley Perfect Lyrics
Falling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?

Making every kind of silence, it takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I wrong

I know that I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?

When you're caught in a lie and you've got nothing to hide
When you've got nowhere to run and you've got nothing inside
It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my, just myself
Just myself, myself, just myself

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying

yeah. back from taiwan... went to climb snow mountain.
first day....
we went to happy family hostel. there's lots of ppl there so the girls were arranged to go sleep in a room. and all we had was a few mattresses. and the one i was suppose to sleep on was filled with body oil smell. was so grossed up.. after we found a place at the hostel, we went for dinner at some la mian shop. the la mian was quite tasty.. had bubble tea after dinner. then we head to the super-mart to get the food for our climbing.. we shopped until like 2am in the morning... oh, i haven intro my group members yet. they are: Zhuan, Mr wilfred, Pk, Nadiah and me. they are really nice people. our group spent about 900 plus NT, while the other groups only spent around 500-600 plus. so imagine the amount of food we have.

second day....
we went to zhong zheng ji nian tang as qingying got to go back early for her interview. we witnessed the flag rising and wait till 8am for the gate to open so we can go in to have a look. we went in walked for a while then we were given some time to walk around the place, but weixuan and i was too tired to even move, so we find ourselves benches and we fall into super deep sleep. then zhuan and edmund came along and told a photo of us. so unglam sia. hees. after the visit to zhong Zheng ji nian tang, we went for lunch, then we went to the outdoor stall to get our equipments. after all the shopping, we get on a bus and we journeyed to OBT, to pack our foods and to leave the things that we dun need to use for the mountain. we stayed there for a night. and left for the mountain the next day...

third day...
we left and went to the mountain... the first hike was rather easy. we took an hour plus to reach our first hut, cika hut. weixuan, melvin, min, edmund and mingfei's group ask me to finished their unfinished apple.. then we went to bed like at 630pm.. and woke up the next morning at 4am to have breakfast and prepare to set off at 6am to our next destination.

fourth day...
we woke up at 4am to have breakfast and left for 369 hut. the hike was slightly tougher than the previous day. we rested at the observation place then we move on.. managed to reach the 369 quite early and had a early dinner. went to bed early once again.

fifth day...
the day we hike to the summit. the day when we all walked on ice. the day when i slipped off the ice and almost lost my life. the day when all of us was so satisfied when we reached the summit. after the summit, we went to the east peak as well. the day when we played slide, with weixuan going over a rock, mingfei going to the rocks and zhuan nearly killing mr wilfred... qingying became a panda, melvin brust his waterbag, khaizurah's pants split, we all had so much fun.

sixth day...
our objective was to climb to the north peak, but due to some dangers after mr wilfred and min went to recee, we decided not to head up there. so we found ourselves a place and camped there for the night. the place there was really freezing cold. we then had our dinner then we had our formal and boxer shorts photo taking in the freezing cold... everybody was like shivering and screaming and shouting when we took the photos. ahahas.

seventh day...
we went up to the circle/bowl to play with ice... yeah.. we make out henry junior snowman, slide down the mountain, practice self-arrest and played a game as well. those were really great time spent together. then we started our solo hike down to 369 then to the observation area. then our surprise came, mr wilfred gave us a situation: weixuan and henry are too tired to make it down here... i told them to rest at 369hut, and if they dun see us, they will go down the next morning.. we are then given two options, one is all of us go up back to 369, second is all of us go down and leave them at 369. we took a look time to discuss as all of us was already very tired. plus it's getting dark.. after the super long diccussion, we all decided to go down and let them rest at 369. we were all about to leave and trek to cika hut, then we were all called back... mr wilfred said we were so disappointing. and how could we bear to leave our friends up there... is not whether if they have food or not.. it's the friendship.. we were all quite down and we really feel very bad at the moment.. then there's a few taiwanese that cant down, and we described weixuan and henry to them... they then told us that weixuan and henry had already left 369 when they leave 369.. then we realized that the situation was not true.. then came another taiwanese coming back with henry's bag.. oops. the situation came real. henry was having lots of blisters and could not move as fast as he should be. so he is left behind walking himself. we then send mr wilfred, pk and qingying up to get henry and some waited and some went doen to get dinner ready for them.. we went down in the dark.. another experience. we then rested and the next time we headed down.

eighth day...
we headed down the mountain and we got to a camping area near the mountain.. the tents there was really spacious and comfortable. we left our stuff inside and finally we had a good shower.. then we walked down 7km to the tea house to had a little tea break... we walked like 1 and a half hour down while the bus only took 5 mins to drive the same distance. we then walked up again to had our dinner. then we spent the night eating instant noodles and chatting with qingying as she is leaving us the next day.

nineth day...
we went back to OBT to return our sleeping bag, tents and trekking poles.we then had our super nice dinner at some chinese restaurant. we all eat till we are so full. we then checked in to the super nice hostel near OBT... that was the nicest bed we laid on for the 11 days. and we had tv with 100 plus programs too. i shared a room with mingfei and melvin, we were all watching zhong yi da ge da's magic show when both mingfei and melvin fall asleep. i have to turn off the tv.. ahahas...

tenth day...
we headed back to taipei... 5 hours journey.. that was super long ya? then we went back to our happy family hostel once again. then we went jiou fen to eat and shopped. we had so little time to shop.. then we went to shilin.. we went to hot spring as well.. then we went to ximen when all the shops are all closed already. then we head back to happy family..

eleventh day, we were giving free and easy time. we went to some flower farm.. the place was super cold. it went down to 4 degrees.. we were all so cold then when the food came, we all eat like some hungry ghost... i think i got the orientation a little wrong. cant really remember le. then we headed back to the airport and home sweet home..

we had popeyes for supper that day.. :)

We all need change in order to progress, don't we? We should welcome change, embrace it, encourage it, because it gives us all a chance to start again, like spring after winter. The season change: life starts anew. There is no death, no ending, only CHANGE!

Feeling Down?

7 Ways to Pick Yourself Back

Up!

From time to time, we all get a little down, maybe even a little depressed. Maybe we are feeling overwhelmed, or feel bad because we’re not doing well with our goals. There are many reasons for feeling down, and I’m not qualified to discuss all of them, their implications, or clinical treatment. What I can talk about are some things that have worked for me.

Feeling a little depressed can interfere with achieving our goals. We know we should be doing something, but we just don’t feel like doing anything. This can last for a long time if you don’t head it off as soon as possible and take action. Here are some of the things that work best for me:

Make a list. Sometimes we are depressed simply because we are overwhelmed with all the things we have to do that we haven’t gotten around to doing. You might be into GTD, but sometimes every GTDer falls behind with his system, and sometimes you just don’t have the energy to do so. So all the “stuff” that’s in our head can overwhelm us. Start simply by picking up a piece of paper and a pen, and making a list of the most pressing things you have to do. Sometimes it’s work stuff, sometimes it’s stuff around the house that’s bothering us, sometimes it’s goal tasks, or a combination of these and more. Simply making a list can be a big relief — you’re getting things under control. You can see, right in front of you, what you need to do, and that alone can pick up your mood.
Take action. You’ve made a list, and you still feel overwhelmed? Well, get started on the first thing you need to do. Is it a big task? Break it down and just do the smallest task, something just to get you started. Once you get started, once you get into action, you’ll feel better. Trust me. You might still feel overwhelmed, but at least you’re doing something. And once you start doing something, you’ve got momentum, and that feels much better than lying around feeling sorry for yourself.
Exercise. I know, you might not be in the mood for exercise. But just do it! Taking a walk, going for a run, going to the gym, whatever it is you do for exercise — get out and do it now! You don’t need to do a real hard workout, but the simple act of exercise can lift your mood immediately. Just do it!
Shower and groom yourself. Laying around in your underwear, smelling bad, is not going to do you any good. Simply showering, and feeling clean, can do wonders for your mood. Brush your teeth, comb your hair, shave, do whatever it is that you need to do to feel clean and good about yourself. Instant pick me up!
Get out of the house and do something. Sometimes, if you stay home lying around, feeling depressed, just getting out (after showering and grooming) will change your mood. Staying home all the time can really get you down, and you may not realize this until you go out and do something. Preferably something on your list (see No. 1).
Play some lively music. I like Brown Eyed Girl, the Kinks, the Ramones, or an upbeat Beatles tune, but you might have your own brand of feel-good music. Whatever it is, crank it up, and let yourself move to the beat. It may just be what the doctor ordered.
Talk about it. Got a significant other, best friend, family member, co-worker you can talk to? Bend their ear. That’s what they’re there for. If you don’t, there are hotlines, or professionals, you can talk to. And then there’s always online forums. These are great places to find someone to talk to. Getting things off your chest makes a big difference, and can be a huge lift. It can also help you work out the reasons you’re feeling down.

Seize the day
or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here,
too many people to ache over

I see my vision burn,
I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
These's streets we traveled on will undergo our same lost past

I found you here,
now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life,
but will it be forever?
I'll do anything for a smile,
holding you 'til our time is done
We both know the day will come,
but I don't want to leave you

I see my vision burn,
I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one PICTURE)

Seize the day
or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here,
too many people to ache over

Newborn life replacing all of us,
changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight,
follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

I see my vision burn,
I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one PICTURE)

Seize the day
or die regretting the time You lost
It's empty and cold without you here,
too many people to ache over
Trials in life,
questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

(guitar solo)

So what if I never hold you, yeah,
or kiss your lips again? Whooooah
So I never want to leave you and the memories OF us to see
I beg don't leave me

Seize the day
or die regretting the time You lost
It's empty and cold without you here,
too many people to ache over
Trials in life,
questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home) x2

(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)

Worth reading: A story.

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage.. They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for office so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter.

The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle fascinated by its color and drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed the mother hurried him to the hospital. He died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how she was going to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just five words.

QUESTION: What were the five words ?

The husband just said 'I am with you Darling'. The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened. No one is to be blamed. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her. If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world. 'A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.' Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears. And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think.

MORAL OF THE STORY
This story is really worth reading. Sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human relationship.

- saw this on liwei's blog. i think it's really worth reading.-

No sir, well I don't wanna be the blame, not anymore.
It's your turn, so take a seat we're settling the final score.
And why do we like to hurt so much?

I can't decide
You have made it harder just to go on
And why, all the possibilities where I was wrong

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating.
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

I wonder, how am I supposed to feel when you're not here.
'Cause I burned every bridge I ever built when you were here.
I still try holding onto silly things, I never learn.
Oh why, all the possibilities I'm sure you've heard.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating (beating)
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

Pain make your way to me, to me.
And I'll always be just so inviting.
If I ever start to think straight,
This heart will start a riot in me,
Let's start, start, hey!

Why do we like to hurt so much?
Oh why do we like to hurt so much?

That's what you get when you let your heart win!
Whoa.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

Now I can't trust myself with anything but this,
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

For a Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic

Just talk yourself up
And tear yourself down
You built your wooden wall
Now find a way around
Well what's the problem?
You've got a lot of nerve

So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
You wouldn't

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
You threw it away

I'm not so naive
My sorry eyes can see
The way you fly shy
Of almost everything
Well, if you give up
You'll get what you deserve

So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away, no you can't run away
You wouldn't

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
You threw it away

You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up, be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it now

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay well did you
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away

AFTERLIFE

Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen
So unsure but it seems, ’cause we’ve been waiting for you
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right
Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be
Arrived too early

And when I think of all the places I just don't belong
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far

I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife

’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here

A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain
Can leave this place but refrain, ’cause we've been waiting for you
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall)
No pain or sign of time (I’m much too young to fall)
So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign
I've made up my mind

Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye
Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
Take me back inside when the time is right

Loved ones back home all crying ’cause they're already missing me
I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be
(I am unbroken; I’m choking on this ecstasy)
Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me
(Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live)

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear escape from this afterlife
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
Take me back inside when the time is right

IN EVERY HEARTBEAT
LIES A DREAM OF GREATNESS
AND DEEP INSIDE US
TREASURES UNFOLD

REACHING FOR THE STARS THAT SHINES ABOVE
I WANNA LIVE MY LIFE FOR ALL ITS WORTH

EVERY SUNRISE
DAWNS A NEW BEGINNING
AND WHEN THE NIGHT COMES
A FIRE BURNS WITHIN

EVERYDAY I LIVE I WANNA GIVE
THE VERY BEST OF ME
SO LET THE DREAMS WITHIN
COME ALIVE

FLYING TO THE BLUE SKY
SOARING HIGH ABOVE
EVERY CLOUD EVERY MOUNTAIN
IS A NEW HORIZON

FLYING TO THE BLUE SKY
REACH FOR SOMETHING MORE
AND THROUGH IT ALL
I WILL STAND TALL
I WON’T GIVE UP
I AM STRONGER THAN BEFORE

I’LL CROSS THE LINE
LEAVE MY FEARS BEHIND
EACH STEP I TAKE
I’LL REACH FOR GREATER HEIGHTS

FOR IN THE END
DESTINY IS IN MY HANDS
THIS IS MY CHANCE
I’LL GIVE THE BEST I CAN

Hees, I was smiling so widely after I grab hold of my paper! and there’s a retest for it, have to study real hard for that! I hope I can get a higher grade! a B4 is not too bad ya?? aim for sth better? most importantly, it's our proficiency test, and i passed, this will help me to better decide whether to drop to combined or not, but i got a strong feeling that i'll fail my chem. lets hope for the better for the other subjects!! hees. tmr's ms tan's birthday!! wish her happy birthday first. ahahas, and we bought a top for her!! signing off. =)

Strength Of A Man

The strength of a man isn't seen in the width of his shoulders.
It's in the width of his arms that encircle you.

The strength of a man isn't in the deep tone of his voice.
It's in the gentle words he whispers.

The strength of a man isn't how many buddies he has.
It's how good a buddy he is with his children.

The strength of a man isn't in how respected he is at work.
It's in how respected he is at home.

The strength of a man isn't in how hard he hits.
It's in how tender he touches.

The strength of a man isn't in the hair on his chest.
It's in his heart, that lies within his chest.

The strength of a man isn't how many women he's loved.
It's in being true to one woman.

The strength of a man isn't in the weight he can lift.
It's in the burdens he can carry.

When autumn come and leaves are falling down
The smallest seed of life fall to the ground
When early morning rise light my day
The evening shadows turn my soul to pray

That's how I know You are near
That's how I know I need no fear
When early morning comes light up my day
I'll never walk without You
(repeat)

The greatest of them all is love
It conquers all the storms in my life
It shelters all the tears that I have cried
I'll never walk without You (without You)

Forever with you

One love supreme
Unbreakable
One land of dreams
Two hearts unite

This love tonight

Love is like a miracle
Invading your heart
When it strikes
It hits you hard

When it's comin' over you

You won't let it go
I'm always on your side
You're always on my mind

( AO one easier!!).. we got to pitch our tent in some muddy area in the forest!! lots of creature!! mii and samm slept with pamela and amirah.. nice people to be with!! we did the trust games too.. the falling on mat game really scary but fun.. after that we learn belaying skills.. cool.. we got to belay our own group members up.. be the rope manager, climber, ankle person!! dinner was kind of sucky.. danny being a F&N students didn’t cook the rice properly.. we ate uncooked rice.. can u imagine?? ahahas.. dun blame him.. everyone was super hungry then.. hees. first day was really slow.. everybody came to us and said they regretted going.. ahahas..
second day!!
we woke up and had we morning pt.. in fact more of morning games.. ahahas.. after that we got to transfer all our stuff from our bags to the bag pack they gave.. the bag pack was stinky and dirty.. and SUPER heavy after we loaded our stuff in.. after packing our bags, we trekked from campsite 2 to campsite 1.. ard 1.6 km.. our bags were damn heavy.. shoulders were aching badly!! campsite 2 was a nice place.. the OBS building.. we saw chalet rooms with nice beds.. and really we got very envious.. put down our bags and we did the inverse tower or the obstacle tower... i reached the top!! got to see the nice nice view.. really felt great at that moment.. after that we had our lunch at the dinning area.. good food i can say.. finally we dun have to cook.. hees.. we had our lunch, dinner, supper and breakfast there... after lunch we did our kayaking basics.. i suck big time sia.. couldn’t not coordinate well with samm.. really felt very useless as we kept on drifting away from the group.. tiring and disappointed experience.. sorry samm!! we learn how to capsize and rescue!! cool ya?? after that we went to pitch our tents again.. some weird area again.. lucky thing we got to bath.. hees.. had our circles.. and we went to bed..
third day!!
our land expedition... with our heavy heavy bags once again.. we were given two maps and we are to trek ard pulau ubin to search for 4 checkpoints and the cookie monster to find campsite 3... jerome, lionel, rashyt and junjie went our land ex ics.. they were great man.. we were the first watch to reach campsite 3 and we found cookie monster too.. our instructor even said we were very patient.. cool ya?? hees.. during land ex, someone shouted for counterpain.. and everyone started wanting counterpain too.. after using it.. everybody’s shoulders were like tearing cos it’s burning hot.. and we started saying burn burn burn all the way.. hees.. and burn even became our group’s theme word.. we would use it whenever our watch magellan is called.. cool ya?? during the land ex, we passed AO campsite and we met a dog, danny claimed that it’s called ubin.. yupps.. the dog kind of leaded the way.. smart dog.. hees.. junjie and the rest keep shouting burn.. poor dog.. ahahas.. kana scolded.. we had fun, in fact, i think that was the day that the fun really started... we were the first watch to reach campsite 3 and we got the best area for our tents.. ahahas.. finally!! hees.. then we have our sea expedition briefing.. get to know that we are actually at a public campsite... with no proper toilet facilities.. so we didn’t get to bath that day.. we were like so sticky and dirty.. and we had our dinner.. we gotta cook in the dark.. can u imagine?? ahahas.. we were damn bad luck then.. went to wash our stuff and big red ants attacked our camp foods.. we got to clear up the place.. the guys were like burning the ants slowly.. and mi standing there shinning the torch.. and we got to wash our pots and mass tins by the sea.. ahahas.. it was fun.. hees.. we acted like cavemens.. ahahas.. we went to sleep ard 11 plus instead of 10 plus.. as we took alot of time to clear up the ants...
fourth day!!
woke up at 445.. to prepare for our sea expedition.. we got to kayak back to campsite2.. early rite?? was really very tired then.. we then set off at 7.. i put lots of sun-block and use a cap plus a skirt to cover my face.. i look so terrorist until tam and ger couldn’t recognize me and said i looked like a guy from behind.. ahahas.. i partner with lionel.. great partner i can say.. he helped me alot.. i think having a good partner is very important.. cos if u got one that doesn’t help ya.. u’re gonna get real exhausted.. saw a few people at the front paddling real hard and the back person was slacking and resting.. thank God i dun have such partner.. samm partnered with vincent.. ahahas.. we had fun.. and we even decided to capsize together.. but we didn’t have the chance to.. and samm said vincent was eating digestive biscuits all the way back.. ahahas.. so funny.. think i enjoyed most during sea ex.. though it was really tiring.. we reached the jetty two hours earlier.. and our reward is the JETTY JUMP!! it was so damn fun.. hees.. we all enjoyed ourselves.. hees.. once again we pitch our tents and had dinner.. that night during dinner, we cooked milo.. everybody gotta drink from the pot.. and amirah was first.. the pot of milo was hot.. ahahas.. it was still smoking when amirah wanted to drink.. amirah drank and her specs were covered with vapors.. and said that the milo was steaming.. and then the guys went crazy about the word “steaming”.. and they went steaming steaming steaming.. it was damn sick.. after dinner, we went to pack out stuff back to our bags!! hees.. had our circles again and went to sleep.. hees..
fifth day!!
last day liao.. we got to wash and pack the items back into the stores.. we lost lots of water bottle and luckily some kind souls kind of donated some to us.. cool.. hees. we lost a total of items that costs us 12 bucks.. so we paid ard 80 cents each. jodi’s group lost items that cost up to 200 bucks.. and they paid 15 bucks each.. that’s alot hor?? so poor thing.. after settling the stores, we went to get our obs souvenirs and had our very last circle.. everyone was so sadd.. really cant bear to leave each other.. it felt like we have spent a year together.. some of us even cried.. then we waited for our boats to reach ubin.. whitley took a photo together.. pity that i dun have a cam.. if not i would be able to take photos with my camp mates already!! boo.. i miss them lots!!

I GIVE MY WHOLE LIFE TO YOU
YOUR LOVE IS THE REASON WHY SING
JESUS, YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING

I DON'T NEED TO WORRY, NO I CELEBRATE
ALL THE THINGS YOU'VE DONE IN ME

‘CAUSE YOU ARE IN MY LIFE
YES IT'S GONNA BE AL RIGHT
GONNA BE, GONNA BE, GONNA BE, GONNA BE ALRIGHT
AND IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT

ALL OF MY TROUBLES
ALL OF MY LIFE I GIVE TO YOU MY KING
