Exam timetable is out!!!

Oh well, it's that time of the year again where the exams are approaching fast.. Time seems faster when exams r nearer. Haha. Which is gd in a way coz it means i get to go back home faster also.. Not that i dun like it here. Wont't b blogging much frm now on i suppose. partly no time and lazy to type so much. Hmm.. makes me think smtimes y i bother keeping a blog? haha mafan la.. But i wont delete it anyway. It brings back memories.. Esp when i look back at my past posts.. not much but it still means smthing i can recall.. Oh well, it's getting late ald, better sleep soon and pia for the weekend, study study!! Assignments assignements! :-(

Confidence...

Learnt this saying abt becoming a leader in whatever we do. It's so true, but sometimes I think it's hard to follow or agree with it, and set standards by ourselves or by what the world percieves us to be. But i guess it's time to change the perception of who we really are in this world, not just in our own nations. And these few words touched me a lot.

"Who I am does not depend on what I do. Identity does not depend on titles, or degrees, or function. It depends only on the simple fact that I am a child of God, valued and treasured for what I am."


This is one of the Songs I sang in church on sundays... I like it very much as it has so much meaning and application in it in our daily lives. Love it! Praise God for song writers who are able to pour out their spirit into creating songs like these..

Cover me
Lord my God
And lead me into your presence
My soul relieved
Trials may come
And darkness upon me
But still your hand it guides me
My saving grace
My one embrace
My one true love
I will exalt thee

I love you
Jesus I thank you
For your hand that covers me

I will worship you
I will worship you
I will worship you
My blessed savior

--------------------------------------------

God inhabits the praise of His people
He's close to those who call upon His name
And all of heaven will dance before you
He's close to those who call upon His name
And he dwells among us today

End of holidays soon... :-(

Well, it has been a gd mid sem break, with days of sleeping and waking up late.. and with the awesome easter camp and church activties, unfortunately, all gd things must also come to an end.. holidays ending v v soon, and it'll also soon b time for new material, new lectures, and preparation for exams! But looking forward to getting over and done with for the exams so I can return home soon also. Hee. Winter is also officically coming and it's getting really wet, cold and windy here! Gosh.. Haha. But i rather the weather b freezing than be hot like an oven. Not sure what others might choose also.. ;) Oh well, back to catching up with last minute assignments and some rest.. b4 next week when uni begins again.

Amazing Love...

I’m forgiven, because you were forsaken
I’m accepted, you were condemned
I’m alive and well, you’re spirit is within me
Because you died and rose again

Amazing love, how can it be
that you my king would die for me
Amazing love, I know it’s true
It’s my joy to honor you
In all I do, to honor you

You are my King
Jesus, You are my King

You are my King

Easter camp was Gr8 n wonderful!! :-)

Just got back frm ocf easter camp today, came back with a fresh perspective of love, and feeling very refreshed in God's love.. Camp theme this year was abt love, so majority of the sessions was learning about love, bgr, relationships, etc. The speaker was great, and He is very annointed i must say.. and thru his sessions have let me realise so much of God's love for us all.. His love for us is really so amazing that He sent His one and only son to die for us.. I cannot fathom anyone, any father or parent doing the same thing.. As this easter is approaching also, I pray that the message of easter and God's love will be magnified, and allow us to honour Him in all that we do.. I've never heard the song, which is also ocf easter camp's theme song, amazing love so differently now than before.. Overall Had a lot of fun and learnt a lot this year.. and the campsite was simply beautiful, with the beauty of nature all around for us to appreciate. it isn't hard to see how great God's creation is.. and we should take time to appreciate them.. even our own bodies are simply amazing creations by Him.. it's about time we take time to reflect, be still and know that God is God... ;-)

Easter camp n mid sem break coming!!!

Finally autumn is here n the weather is getting cooler. Couldn't stand the summer heat! N half a semester is almost coming to an end, with the upcoming mid semester break. But really looking forward to ocf easter camp during the weekend! It was a memorable one last year, n i'm sure this year will b even better! :) Also have to use the mid sem break wisely.. revise n prepare for upcoming exams! Thank God for all gd friends who support and encourage me...

Boring weekend...

So boring.. sigh. I think this is my most boring weekend ever. I don't know y.. is it bcoz i have nothing to do? Hmm. I have a test coming up but studied for it ald! assignments, did all i could.. read up for lectures also. What else can i be missing? Have been feeling a bit lonely too, like having no friends ard.. i knw it's not true, but smtimes dunno y i feel like that. I am so glad i have uni tmr actually.. I love sundays too la, bcoz got church to go to, but after that.. it's different.. back to room alone. Well, almost late ald.. gotta prepare for uni tmr. Only 1 lecture.. Haha. So silly. But well, better than nothing to do again!..

All My Praise...

I will follow You through green pastures
And sing hallelujah to Your Name
I will follow You through dark disaster
And sing hallelujah through the pain

And even in the shadow of death
I will praise You
And even in the valley I will say

Holy, My God
You are worthy of all my praise x2

You are seated on your throne in heaven
And You see all of us down here
And You have promised You will not abandon
So I shall not fear

You made every star
And You taught it how to shine
You knew my name before there was time
And all this was just part of Your glorious design
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

2nd week in uni...

Well well, 1st week of uni is over, n now in 2nd week ald.. work starting to pile up ald.. Haha. but i guess consistency is the key, without it, when exam time comes sure die wan.. Haha. But still feel the timetable is rather silly n some days r quite boring, like only have 1 or 2 lessons.. i guess this is better in a way that i have more free time, but bad if i misuse the free time i have.. need to use them wisely! Like to read up or understand more.. or do the tuts or assignments! Haha. So far so gd.. jus hope won't start to slack n lag behind.. well, it's gettin late! gtg do some last min revision n sleep ald.. tmr's lessons start @ 4pm! HAha.. this is what i mean by my bad timetable.. So sianz.. but no choice.. it's like that. Not my choice. Hee.. ;-)

Going back to adelaide soon

Time sure flies when we're having fun! Only a week left in s'pore b4 returning back to adelaide for a new semester. Yr 2 ald, still have 3 more yrs, n this yr is not gonna b ez, but I know that God will pull me thru it, for He will give me sufficient grace to overcome any race He has set for me to finish. Feeling a bit sad though to leave home after being here for 2-3 mths. Miss the convenience of s'pore, friends, my dar, n family. But I knw this semester will be a time for me to learn and challenge myself, as an individual and as a Christian. Things are not going to get easier, but I think the process of overcoming them are going to be far more rewarding! That's the drive that keeps me going thru it all, and although life in aust isn't all a bed of roses, it's thru the thorns and pain that will keep me to rely on God and His strength, grace and mercy. I cannot base anything on what I CAN do anymore, but on what HE can do for me. I been thru a lot of times when i felt like crying or giving up even in my 1st yr, but God has never let me go, and He has shown to me what simple faith and trust in Him can do. I can never imagine i cleared every subject in yr 1, and although I didn't do exceptionally well, I knw it's a stepping stone to something greater. Wish all my friends here all the best, as they continue with their studies or work, or anything they are doing. I pray for strength for everyone for u, and that this year blessings and goodness will manifest themselves onto each individual like never before. :-)

The impt thing is to believe in the goodness n promises of God, and the fact that He has already given to us His most precious gift, so that we may all be able to enjoy prosperous n abundant lives. We dun have to wait till cny to wish n hope for a year to be happy or nian nian yu. Haha. Yupz.. hence I just know that this year will be a yr full of abundance as we have a God who is Al shadai, a God who never has any lack and can provide for us more than we can ever ask or think.

We've come to be as one

We'll leave it at the door
Coz right now we're here to say
Lord that we love you
We need you, so we send it up

Everbody come on send it up
Lift your praises give Him all that you've got
Everybody in celebration
We praise you, we praise you
Come on send it up

Risen one, Holy one
Who is seated upon the throne
Come and praise
Worship His holy name

Send it up

My saviour I worship you
And all i have to give
Forever I surrender

I surrender to your love
