hey blog,
it's been a while. haven't had the time or the mood to blog, since we're moving into the mugging monsoon season. the entire atmosphere smells of muggers. me? i guess i've been caught up in it too as well i guess, and to be honest, i haven't been this hardworking since, well.... since. i guess when your prelims grades don't make for nice reading (although everyone says that, unless you're a AAAAA student la... then again, if you get my kinda results... but i digress. suffice to say that i'm underperforming, though i'm not the worst), you really wake up and start to do what you should've been doing for the larger part of the past 2 years. but as i always say, shoulda, woulda, coulda, but didnt. still, i can't complain much about my prelim grades, given the amount of effort i did put in. my only concern now is whether i can do as much as i need to within this month or so.
but, surprisingly, i'm actually enjoying each day i'm mugging. i thought i'd be burned out real quick, but after this past crazy week (and believe me, it has been crazy), i'm still standing pretty alright. it's definitely the Lord who's given me the strength and willingness to do. after all, studying is my calling for now, and it's the least i can do to honour the one who bled and died for me, and who holds the breath of my life in His hand. He's still the one who's mighty to save.

Say So
What does it mean to be saved?
Isn't it more than just a prayer to pray?
More than just a way to heaven?
What does it mean to be His?
To be formed in his likeness?
Know that we have a purpose.
To be salt and light in the world
in the world
To be salt and light in the world
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, say so, say so!
Oh that the church would arise
So that we would see with Jesus' eyes
We could show the world heaven
Show what it means to be His
To be formed in his likeness
Show them they have a purpose
To be salt and light in the world, in the world
To be salt and light in the world
To be salt and light in the world, in the world
To be salt and light in the world
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, say so, say so!
I am redeemed, I am redeemed
I am redeemed, I am redeemed
I am redeemed, I am redeemed
To be salt and light in the world in the world
To be salt and light in the world
To be salt and light in the world, in the world
To be salt and light in the world
To be salt and light in the world, in the world,in the world, in the world, in the world!
Let the redeemed of the Lord rise up!
Let the redeemed of the Lord rise up!
Let the redeemed of the Lord rise up, rise up, rise up!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, say so, say so!
I am redeemed, I am redeemed

I am redeemed, I am redeemed

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Mighty to Save
Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
A kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations
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 i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine your light and
Let the whole world see
We're singing
For the glory of the risen King
Jesus
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
A kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations
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 i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine your light and
Let the whole world see
We're singing
For the glory of the risen King
Jesus

You're The Same
Yesterday, today
Forever You're the same
Jesus Your love
Will never ever change
You are here with me
Watching over me
Day after day
You are my hiding place
You calm the storms
You raise the dead
You cause the blind to see
The lame to walk again
Yesterday, today
Forever You're the same
You walk with me
You talk with me
You're pleased to hear my voice
Each time I sing Your praise
Forever You are the same
Forever You're the same
Jesus Your love
Will never ever change
You are here with me
Watching over me
Day after day
You are my hiding place
You calm the storms
You raise the dead
You cause the blind to see
The lame to walk again
Yesterday, today
Forever You're the same
You walk with me
You talk with me
You're pleased to hear my voice
Each time I sing Your praise
Forever You are the same

for whatever reason, the headache i went to sleep with last night refused to let me go. i'd tried reading the Word, confession of faith for my healing, and to even just simply pray. but the healing didn't manifest yet. so i went to sleep anyway, and praise God, i had a great night of sleep.
but come morning, mr migraine was back again. now it had really started to bug me. but, i did what i do best to it. just dao. but somehow when i was asleep it seemed to have made a pact with my nose to keep secreting mucus to remind me that i wasn't well, to try and detract me from the simple truth that i am the healed by Jesus' stripes.
so on i went to school, having those 2 compounded by a niggling throat, who decided that "three's a crowd" was utter crap. so i was blowing my nose, having throbbing veins in my head and trying to clear my throat every 5 mins or so.
then, during bio lecture, this revelation just dawned on me.
"so who cares what he thinks? i thought it's Jesus said one."
a simple truth like that suddenly gave me the strength to completely dao the pain. up till then i was trying very hard, maybe too hard, that i was actually giving it more attention. hmm. sounds familiar.
it didn't help that in the afternoon, we had to do a math mock prelim paper (i wonder if they'll call our prelim paper a "mock a-level paper"?). before that, i had been doing chem questions for 2 hours straight, and my head felt pretty stiff, replacing that horrible migraine, but still feeling quite bad nontheless. i remember spacing out at least 3 times during the paper, but still came back to attempting the few questions i actually understood what they were asking about.
isn't it funny how the more you think, the more convoluted your thinking becomes, and the worse you do for math? that's how i feel anyway.
so, after the paper, i felt....tired. disappointment in math hardly comes nowadays, since one can only improve or maintain. a U. (hey don't laugh, most of our cohort failed). i'm actually pretty happy about this paper though, but of course it doesn't mean i'll get an A. maybe perhaps, just maybe, possibly, a D? :)
anyway, when i found out we were having dinner with my aunt and cousins, i wonder if it'd make me more tired or more exhausted. they were at my place to watch the guy who was fixing the air-conditioners at home; 3 of them broke down simultaneously lol.
dinner was a very enjoyable affair. it started off with meeting carl at the eating outlet, and it turns out that he reached the exact same place before me; even though we left school at the same time, he by bus, me by car. still, we had to pick up the kids, so...
dinner with the kids was fun, as always. it's times like these that i am reminded how blessed i am; to have three little cousins to play with, to be able to watch over them like a Big Brother (though i never had one myself). i'm really fond of them; they're the closest i have to siblings.
but wait, here comes the best part.
after we came home (after ice creams at mannoners after dinner), i only realised in the shower:
my headache was gone!
not only did He touch that little symptom, but He made the process of healing thoroughly enjoyable.
thank You Jesus. :)

Hillsong - Here In My Life
I have never walked on water
Felt the waves beneath my feet but
At Your Word Lord
I receive Your
Faith to walk on oceans still
And I remember
How You found me
In the very same place
All my failings
Surely would have drowned me
Still You made a way
You are my freedom
Jesus You're the reason
I'm kneeling again at Your throne
Where would I be without You
Here in my life
Here in my life
You have said that
All the heavens sing for joy
At one who finds the
Way to freedom
Truth of Jesus
Brought from death into His life
And I remember how You saw me
Through the eyes of Your grace
I know the cost was
Your Beloved for me
Still You made a way
Felt the waves beneath my feet but
At Your Word Lord
I receive Your
Faith to walk on oceans still
And I remember
How You found me
In the very same place
All my failings
Surely would have drowned me
Still You made a way
You are my freedom
Jesus You're the reason
I'm kneeling again at Your throne
Where would I be without You
Here in my life
Here in my life
You have said that
All the heavens sing for joy
At one who finds the
Way to freedom
Truth of Jesus
Brought from death into His life
And I remember how You saw me
Through the eyes of Your grace
I know the cost was
Your Beloved for me
Still You made a way

totally by chance today, i watched blue's clues on nick.
and boy, did it bring back some memories.
i remember in p6, i used to watch it everyday after school (at 2pm too i think). and in school everyday, i'd never fail to sing almost all the songs, especially the last song (the song the guy steve sings before credits start rolling). i used to do that all the time, and was, as a result, more often than not, at the centre of attention.
how times have changed. lol. (or has it?)
anyway, just for old time's sake, here are the lyrics for the last song of every episode:
Now it's time for so long,
But we'll sing just one more song!
Thanks for doing your part,
You sure are smart!
You know, with me and you,
And my dog blue,
We can do, ANYTHING!
That we wanna do.

just when i thought it was going to be another boring lesson, He arranged for someone i'm fond of to sit near me. hardly any words were exchanged, but just that person's presence alone seemed to reinvigorate me.
just when i was overwhelmed by physical fatigue on my way home and could think of nothing else but sleep, He arranged for a friend who loves me to be there to keep me going. no matter how short the conversation was, it reminded me that, after all, there is Someone who still loves me infinitely.
it's the little things like these which really bring a smile to my face.
thank You, Jesus. =)
You lavish on me.

The Stand
You stood before creation
Eternity in Your hand
You spoke the earth into motion
My soul now to stand
You stood before my failure
Carried the Cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand
So what can I say
What can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You
So I'll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
This life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand
So what can I say
What can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You
So I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
So I’ll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours
Eternity in Your hand
You spoke the earth into motion
My soul now to stand
You stood before my failure
Carried the Cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand
So what can I say
What can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You
So I'll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
This life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand
So what can I say
What can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You
So I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
So I’ll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours

Lavish
You lavish me with love
As I wait at Your feet
Your Love like sweet perfume
Washes over me
You comfort me with words
When to You I run
You hold me in Your arms
My haven from the storm
I can't help but tell the world of Your great Grace
How You come to love
Crucified You've saved
I speak of Your great love for me
I glorify You Majesty
Your Love
Will never ever change
I see Your open hands of Grace
Nailed to the Cross for me in Grace
Your Love
You lavish on me
Your Love
You lavish on me
As I wait at Your feet
Your Love like sweet perfume
Washes over me
You comfort me with words
When to You I run
You hold me in Your arms
My haven from the storm
I can't help but tell the world of Your great Grace
How You come to love
Crucified You've saved
I speak of Your great love for me
I glorify You Majesty
Your Love
Will never ever change
I see Your open hands of Grace
