j'adore.
A la croix (At the Cross)
Verse
Seigneur Tu me cherches
Tu me connais
Et si je T’oubliais
Je sais que Tu m’aimes
Ta sainte présence
elle m’environne
A chaque moment
je sais que Tu m’aimes
Je sais que Tu m’aimes
Chorus
A la croix je me prostèrne
Où Ton sang coula pour moi
Aucun amour n’est plus grand
Tu as gagné sur la mort
Ta gloire remplit les lieux tres hauts
Rein ne peut nous separer
Verse
Tu marches devant moi
Tu gardes mes pas
Ta main me soutient
Je sais que Tu m’aimes
Bridge
Tu déchires le voile
Tu traces un chemin
Car Tu as Tout accompli
Verse
Si tous s’éffondrer
devant mes yeux
Et Tu Te tiens devant moi
Je sais que Tu m’aimes
Je sais que Tu m’aimes

collapsible.
here i am again
striving to concoct a perfect
blend of words;
striving to break free and
run, unhindered.
how familiar, the sorrow which overwhelmed.
grief overstayed its visit
crushing, enticing me to go
where no one knows nor understands.
my rose-tinted glasses lie crushed
under the mighty hand of
smoke soot dust grime;
turning and turning,
i cannot spy the falconer
and i cannot fathom
how much this will move heaven
or when, or how, will i again
soar like eagles' wings.

sweet resolution
today i received
answers to some questions in my heart,
an affirmation of God's promises and sovereignty,
and peace within.
He is awesome.

raindrops--keep fallin'--on my head
I will Exalt the One is such a wonderful song. and so's Holy One of God. love 'em! such impactful & uplifting worship. I will Exalt the One is stuck in my head now- which is fine of course. it's not one of those irritating songs you can't get outta your head. haha.
this week's been good. a self-declared week of rest & relaxation. thank You. my latest record: i slept till 9pm on one day! haha. but it was because i was feeling really ill, and i slept at 4/5am. hmm. so amazing eh, my supposedly unrivalled ability to sleep so much. =D
well i'm really tired now. nights all. i'll try not to sleep all day, sleep all dayy!

now i just have to decide which module to drop: Brit-Asian lit or Southeast Asian Women's lit. considering that both start at 9 30am, i'll probably be late or snoozing in bed. haha. hmm. decisions decisions.

the superficial.
i have this ulcer or something at the corner of my mouth. painful when i open my mouth wide or touch it. and i have two horrible pimples on my face..and they are not disappearing. arghhh!! pray that these'll all be gone. how could they ruin my face like this. sighh.
went to suntan and swim(not splash water) earlier. the sun was scorching; the water inviting. so blissful. unfortunately, school starts tomorrow, as much as i try to not plunge back into that horrendous reality.
i'll just keep swimmin'.

beery goot.
headed to mj today. remininsced on all the silly stuff back then, one example being in the condemned maths class at the corner of the school, and the silly crushes my silly friends had on certain questionable individuals. ew ew. hahaha.
later on, we had sour cream chips, ben&jerry's choc fudge ice cream (i LOVE it! someone treat me to a tub of it & i'll love you too), vodka/coke/orange juice, and toys like doraemon to join the revelling. laughed at tomato faces & someone's incessant downing of drinks. haha. but well, i feel super bloated from all the food & drink. greaat. shall swim tomorrow! g'night all.

metamorphosed.
got meself a new layout :)
i really really wanna go for exchange! arghh. people are flying off left, right & centre. but... i think i really really really wanna go for a holiday! okay i realise i've been bemoaning the fact that i've been stuck in s'pore for quite a while now. shows just how much i do not look forward to year2 sem2. sighh. my classes are soo early in the morning. i dread the bleary-eyed journey to boon lay.
in reference to this post's title, is change really unthinkable? there's a tendency to believe that this person's character is always like this. yet, i cannot and will not believe that i cannot change. because i want to change, for the better. isn't this what we always ask or pray for? to name some songs: Change my heart O God & The Potter's Hand. it's difficult to change one's character, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.
how imperfect we all are; there're so many things in me i can improve and change. refine me Lord.

two double oh seven.
i celebrated the first few minutes of the new year by having a piping hot shower.
how mundane; how invigorating.
so much of everything this past year-
the pain in losing a loved one.
the suffering through 3 hour long lectures.
the blissful freedom those 3 months from ntu.
the joy that bloomed with good company & good food.
the unexplainable, unforgettable encounters with You.
i gained much, and lost little. (not in terms of weight, mind ya)
and a parting shot to 2007:
bring it on.
