people have been asking about baptism (or xi li as i learnt a new chi word in the past week) here goes: - it is observed only once in the life of a Christian - it is a public declaration of one's faith in Jesus
WHY? b/c baptism is (i) a command to be followed (ii) a mark of christian discipleship (iii) an incorporation into the body of Christ
i greatly appreciate everyone who will be coming & those who want to but can't A BIGGIE HUGGIE THANKIE :p "am i excited? happie??" ..well needless to say, i am definitely happie. It marks another phase of my life.. as i invite more familiee & frenz, i begin to get more excited & look forward to it esp now since it is only 2 days away *beams* ::yeah this is my party::
I'm special In all the world there's nobody like me Since the beginning of time, there has never been another person like me Nobody has my smile Nobody has my eyes, my nose, my hair, my hands and my voice.
I'm special No one can be found who has my hand-writing Nobody anywhere has my tastes - for food or music or art No one see things just as i do.
I'm special In all of time there's been no one who laughs like me, No one who cries like me And what makes me laugh and cry will never provoke identical laughter and tears from anybody else, ever No one reacts to any situation just as i would react.
I'm special I'm the only one in all of creation who has my set of abilities. Oh, there will always be somebody who is better at one of the things I'm good at, but no one in the universe can reach the quality of my combination of talents, ideas, abilities and feelings. Like a roomful of musical instruments, some may excel alone, but none can match the symphony sound when all are played together I'm a symphony Through all of eternity no one will ever look, talk, walk, think or do like me.
I'm special, I'm rare And, in all rarity, there is great value Because of my great rare value, I need not attempt to imitate others I will accept - yes, celebrate - my differences.
I'm special And I'm beginning to realize it's no accident that I'm special I'm beginning to see that God made me special for a very special purpose He must have a job for me that no one else can do as well as I Out of all the billions of appliacnts, only one is qualified, only one has the right combination of what it takes That one is me. Because.. I'm special!!
haha had my first taste in serving in the video ministry last nite.. din expect to handle the camera rightaway tho' thought tat i will juz be observing.. was taught the basics: mainly zooming & focusing. But it wasn't tat easy & it was more of 'feeling' ard; must do it in a very subtle manner if not it will look very bad on the screen.. haha everytime my camera was on-air, i was tensed la, so afraid i will make a big hooha.. was quite confused about the focusing part; made a blunder & panicked Darryl (yep the guy working in the video room) bud thankfully i wasn't on-air.. grinding this into my head: turn right means close, turn left means open up..
e control room in TC (took some other pics bud they are all in my hp)
this is a small setup as compared to the one in Expo.. there e person in charge has to control 4 screens simultaneously.. this is surely not suitable for me-- cannot multi-task
Counselors are both rare and unique...... while others are more than willing to open up to you, you're not quite so outgoing about your own life, and oftentimes, you may not even want to hear about others'. You are an incredibly emotional person -- ...... For that reason, you can at times shy away from contact and interaction to maintain your own stability......
"WAH! i did better than expected!" Nah.. i got a C as expected. For the 1st time C lol, but whocares.. NAPFA is !!over&done!! with foreva hehe..
really tink tat i lack perservance.. less than halfway thru, felt like giving up le, as alwax. As much as i hate to admit, i do have 3mins of passion (read these into chi). Here are some evidences:
--> asked for a pair of skate flyers for my birthday light years ago.. after using it for only a few times, it has been on the most top shelf of my cupboard ever since...
--> thought i wld enjoyed playing soccer & wanted so much to join a team.. after a few months, begin to dread the sessions.. im so happie now tat the season has stop & no more tiring/injurious/muddy games.. u know sth? i wil juz stick to watching soccer
--> pestered to buy a keyboard for me because i wanted to practise playing. However, after my school ended that module, i also stop practising. Now it is hidden in a secluded area, where i would not have remember it till my mum goes " See! ask mi to buy.. then now nv play." which i will rebutt, " soon.. later.. blah blah"
--> i wasn't juz entertaining her when i said tat! i did take some action: actually went to search for piano teachers.. haha guess wad?? i found myself a guitar teacher.. It seems cool to pick it up in the beginning then i realised i was superb slow&lousy at it.. hardly practise it at home.. cant strum & after one year, i can only play 'more than words' less-than-adequately LOL.. so glad i stopped e lessons le..
*perhaps music is juz not for mi*
--> at the same time, i found myself a taekwondo instructor too.. now i am at green belt.. did think of stopping before due to ........ but fortunately it wasn't as serious as i thought.. maybe this time i will be able to perserve all the way to a black belt?? :D
went to ps to watch potc: Dead Man's Chest.. as usual waited 20mins in GV before the show started..word of advice:btw e 1st row centre & e side 2nd row, choose e side anytime. OR u get neckaches like mi :l
felt e show was quite disappointing.. din match up to the prequel.. this was darker & there was betrayal.. everytime davy jones use tat HAI GUAI (thnx to lj who read the chinese subtitles) is like game over for the rest.. bud of cuz the heroes never die, e way tat Will manage to escape (twice) is really 'fascinating'..
maybe i expected too much. ya perhaps one shld not have expectations cuz when they don't meet the mark, you feel let down? bud keep the expectations up cuz u'll be anticpating & tat give u hope.. be it of things or of human beings.. im sure your loved ones would want to meet your expectations to see the joy of satisfaction on your face..
haha bud sometimes it is more realistic to have lower expectations esp when u know yr own limits.. then when u do better than expected, u will be going "WAH! i did better than expected!" & u will be much happier * im aiming for a C in my 2.4 tml * =p
wanted to get out of bed bud my head was spinning real bad tat i cldn't stand properly.. (maybe my brain cells juz had a tough battle differentiating fact from fiction lolx!!).. got better tho' & was able to go to school (SIGH).. bud was quite tired/sleepy/grouchy during the day
softball was fun!! tho' we (e fielders) were pretty confused about the bases' thingy.. gonna do much better as the batters nx week.. waiting 2+hours for pe is worthwhile afterall
such an enjoyable learning sign lang.. i know how to sign lotsa new words today! (ask mi for my sign name!!) hehe bud tink will forget soon..
i had a weird illusion (wldn't call it a dream since it feels so real)
It was mi receiving back my essay (bud it was more like a pri sch compo with short short paragraphs) e handwriting din not look like mine tho'.. then there was a GooD on the front page It was 46/56 (strange marks). of cuz i was happie that i got such high marks read thru' wad i wrote bud wad i rmb most vividly is pie (ya e 3.142 pie) appearing in one part (?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????) btw, !! the paper was very yellowish !!
then was awoken by e human alarm clock (my dad :p) bud i felt really happie to be awake (high marks for essay!!) then a realisation hit mi.. didn't i receive my essay back last week?? i tried to diff wad happen & wad really happened..
..okiez back to reality
all these don't make sense?? don't ask my why. im trying to figure out too.. perhaps u can shed some light for mi
yesh blockies are over finally.. bud tink will prob sleep thru' the night.. i mean world cup not worthwhile to lose sleep over anymore. (ya im like this so wad!!) But maybe i will see how port lose -- tat's at least sth to look forward to :D
back to lectures&tutorials tml bud i dread my yet-to-be taken 2.4 the most.. hopefully somehow it will be forgotten :P
i was studying for my phy p3 ydae when this came to mi
Ever since i found You, i was changed forever in my life. i never really thought of this, how much You've donefor mi. i wannalive this lifejuz for You To simply serve You To simply lurve You for You are what i need all my life You are what i need
for once they din underperformed. they created gd chances. yet cldn't score. strong defence exciting midfield yet a 4-5-1
it was a match of 10men vs 12men. e playmaker was really the referee. handball -- no penalty Lennon tripped on a goal scoring opportunity -- no penalty Rooney shove ronaldo -- red card ronaldo shove Crouch -- no card portugese playact -- no card
wahahaha wad a procrastinator i am.. wanted to blog since 2 years ago bud everytime tat spur-of-the-moment decision could not take mi thru' cuz i want to have tat perfect blog of my own style and stuffs then in the end juz give up.. lol bud in the end now im using this norm template. maybe this time the urge is stronger to blog tats why im here crapping away..
talking about spur-of-the-moment decisions.. i think im qt rash who goes for the thrills of being impulsive & not listening to others then later regret.. tat's probably why my mum been complaining about the white elephants in the house hehe.. moreover, i cannot believe fully in whateva others say unless i went thru' it myself.. perhaps i prefer the difficult route & maybe tats y im so persistently stubborn sometimes
i be updating on e world cup '06 soon.. watch this space :D
it's okay if you can't see the road ahead, just make sure God is still in sight!!
In His time, in His time,
He makes all things beautful in His time.
Lord, please show me every day,
As You're teaching me Your way,
That You do just what You say, in Your time.
In Your time, in Your time,
You make all things beautiful in Your time.
Lord, my life to You I bring.
May each song I have to sing
Be to You a lovely thing, in Your time.
