Just got this video from Ziqin recently...we performed this song during our YJ alumni concert in 2006 which was really an awesome privilege for me.
This is the very first song i composed in my life.
Composed during my JC years in the midst of challenges in my life yet nevertheless God prevailed in my life and encouraged me with this song. =)

Title of the song is Always with you because i want to remind myself that God is always with me no matter what i go through in life =)

Lyrics are below, enjoy! God is always with you =) =)



ALWAYS WITH YOU


当我失落时候
我争开双眼我会看到你的脸
你告诉我不要轻易放弃
要勇敢走下去
要坚持到底

当没人在乎我
而我最亲的人,伤得我那么深
当眼泪从我眼角一直不停的流
我大声问你,主你究竟在何方

CHORUS:
I’m always with you
I’m always by your side
在你失意时候, 我从没离开你
I’m always with you, you got to trust in Me my child
Whatever you go through I’ll be watching over you

BRIDGE:
Always with you
我会永远在你身边
守护着你,我会 陪伴着你。。da~

Suddenly had this desire to want to be on a mountain.. to be on top of the world, to spend time with God. Just like Pastor Phil and just like Jesus.

Jesus and Pastor Phil had very real encounters with the Holy Spirit and with God on the mountain. I can just imagine that, with that kind of stillness and peacefulness up there on top of the mountain where everything's around me is so beautiful. Wow~

But well.. in Singapore the highest mountain i can climb is only bt timah hill and with the thought of Mas Selamat hiding around and reappearing ANYTIME in front of me.. Hai forget it. BUT maybe i will climb some other mountains elsewhere.. Mt everest? Haha.. i'll need to train up myself first. One day i will climb the mountain! ok that's my longterm goal for now.

Some of the things i'll be doing/intend to do after my exams
1. Sentosa retreat with LOG! (right after exams!)
2. Piano Audition
3. Celebrate ron's bday(16th May)
4. LOUD CAMP!! (1st week of June)
5. Taiwan Grad trip!! (2-8th July)
6. Meet up with ex-N107 members
7. Compose 2 songs
8. Cycle @ Pula Ubin with my cg members
9. Tree top trail outreach or prayer walk
10. Take up ballroom dance lessons with Ron
11. Complete grade 8 theory
12. Read at least 3 books during my break

And these are my short-term goals for now.

I had this revelation yesterday that "God is a God of new things." He wants to constantly do a new work in my life, bring me new encounters, new experiences and even new places. Walking with God is not something that is routined and religious but fun, exciting with ever-new and ever-changing encounters and experiences!

Staying open to God is so important, God cannot pour new wine into our lives unless we first have a new wineskin. As we grow older, sometimes it's uncomfortable to step out to try new things or even build new friendships. Some say there's not enough time, some say there's too many commitments and some even say "i'm too tired to try.. "To me, all these are just plain excuses and it's not what God wants to hear from us. Complaceny is not what God wants in us.

We never know what's over the other side of the mountain unless we first step out and climb the mountain. We never know what are the greater things that God can work through us and has instored for our lives unless we stay open to Him and are willing to try. And God always work through willing people.

So staying open to new things and step out or be complacent and remain in comfort zone?
I choose the first.

Studied with huiyu, chenhong and ivan at woodlands starbucks yesterday.
Ziqin joined us in the evening and celebrated ivan's birthday.
We spent some time fellowshipping @ Mac and i had a good laugh. Hadn't laughed so hard for quite sometime. I really missed the YJC fellowship.

Missed those prayer meetings and sharings we once had @ the YJmusic room, the run-down container and Eunice's blk 666.
Missed those times of fellowships we had, focused yet fun mugging sessions.
Missed those crazy moments we had, running and shouting from one end to another end in school. Missed the Parade of school days which brought us together, through thick and thin and got us united as one. (we were the only school which represented the JC cluster in the very first POS!)

God did a mighty work in our midst, revived our hearts and set us on fire to step out and dream great dreams for Him. We were young, yet radical and bold. We did not have much but we have great dreams, dreams to be mighty warriors for God, doing great and mighty exploits for Him and to see a great revival in our generation.

If you guys happen to reading this, i want to say "Thanks for all those wonderful times and for your friendship. You guys really made a difference in my life. Don't stop dreaming for God, we only have one life to live, let's live our life to the fullest and make each day count for Jesus. As we grow older, let's grow even more passionate and fervent for Him. Our days are going to get even brighter and glorious and we will see a mighty move of God in our generation. " =)

Keep on fighting the good fight of fatih. Love you guys lots=)

EMERGE REVOLUTION (remember this?),

Dr Kim came to shared in our expo services last week.. i'm really very impacted by her and Dr Cho.

Impacted by how a group of 5 can grow to a 750,000 congregation today.. the world's largest church of our generation.

Impacted by how anointed and talented she is. A preacher, a teacher, a musician and a song-writer.

Impacted by how humble she is and the child-like faith that kept her going through all the challenges in her life all these years and how God ultimately prevailed in her life.

Impacted how she never gave up on life and kept on persisting on and trusting God even though she went through tubercluosis, financial crisis and how God healed her and prospered her.

It goes to tell me one thing, that God IS faithful.

Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose"

I wept as we chorused "Oh Hallelujah.." I wept as i was reminded of those times when God has been good to me and brought me through the valleys in my life.

I wept as i heard a voice said " i'm very proud of you.."

I felt really loved and i was overwhelmed by His agape love.

It doesn't matter if no one understands, doesn't matter if no one appreciates. I'm not doing unto anybody but unto Him. It doesn't matter that things seems bleak right now because i know my God will ultimately turn things around.

It is all worthwhile and i want to be like Dr Kim, i will humble myself before God and keep on trusting Him for my breakthroughs to come.


Alleluia to Christ the Lord
- True Worshipers Youth
I will lift my heart and sing
I will worship You my King
Earth and heaven now proclaim
Jesus Christ the Mighty Name

(verse 2)
Through the storm and raging sea
I will never be alone
When my hope seems out of sight
I know You will shine Your Light

(chorus)
Alleluia Alleluia Alleluia Alleluia
To Christ the Lord

Just realised that i blog more frequently during exams period.. I guess maybe it's bcoz i'm facing my computer more..

Anyway.. OH, NIE person-in-charge called me yesterday! I'm very excited coz i'm asked to go for a music audition which means that if i pass it i will be teaching both econs and music in secondary school! Econs was something that i've expected but music came to be a surprise as i didn't have a degree in music so.. for them to offer it to me as a post-grad diploma... it's really a miracle from God. Thank you Jesus! =) =) =)

Ok, this is expected of me for the coming audition
1. Prepared pieces amounting to between 5 and 10 minutes from any genre/style
2. Sight-sing a tune (which will be given to you on the day of the audition)
3. Harmonise the same tune (choice of harmonies are yours)
4. Use your harmonisations of that same tune to improvise the melodic line.
5. A brief interview.

Frankly speaking i'm really very nervous as it's been 4 yrs since i've last took a music exam. So please keep me in prayers ok?

Oh and yesterday i went to city hall with peiyun after studying till 10pm at NUS. I was super tired actually but in the end i still went with her. We went to this Italian cafe at Raffles city.. can't remember the name but it's rather high-class. We got ourselves some cakes, can u imagine? One Tiramisu cake cost almost 8 bucks!! BUT thank God we had a discount.. so it's only $3.65! Hehe =p I felt like a little girl standing down there, so facsinated by all the interesting looking cakes and asking the waiter lots of questions.. Haha. But really, the cakes are all so unique, all italian names. How i wish i can eat them ALL! Haha.. but end up i got myself a tiramisu coz the waitress recommended it and i trusted her =)

OK! Here's some pics of MY yummy tiramisu!

Went to bed @ 12 plus.. tossed and turned and can't get to sleep so i decided to wake up and study somemore.

I'm anxious for my upcoming exams actually.. esp it's my final semester. I'm left with so MANY revisions to cover.. =( But God is good, He just reminded me when i was praying just now that "His grace is more than sufficient for me and His strength is made perfect is my weakness"

Yup, I will lean upon His strength and wisdom. I will do my best and let God do the rest =)

Looking forward to my Taiwan graduation trip!! =) =) =)

I went to cut my hair today!!

Woke up yesterday suddenly had the urge to cut my hair and today i went! I told the guy doing my hair to "trim abit.." and end up he cut alot! Hai.... but nvm la at least my fringe is no longer poking my eyes and my hair's very neat now, a good hairstyle for exam period. Haha

My exams starting on the 30th, i've got 2 assignments and 1 test next week!! Actually i was quite ok yesterday one but today after seeing everyone mugging in school i'm starting to get stressed up. NUS ppl can be quite scary sometimes.. they can study non-stop one le and they study EVERYWHERE! Even at the CANTEEN!! Hai..Really SGN le...Spoil market lo.. Destiny, you better buck up ah!!

Anyway, my day ended great today! My piano student's mum gave me a pearl necklace dunno why also.. but it's very sweet of them =) And my student was very excited today! She keep jumping around and smiling a me. Haha she really made my day =) =)

Yesterday ron bought me ALOT of sushis and ferroro roches (hope i spelled correctly). Alot of salmons and tako sushi, all my favorites! =) =) I muz learn to appreciate him more and not take him for granted. I want to sow more into the relationship and be a best gf i can be for him. =)

DR A.R.Bernard says : " Love is a choice. Either you choose to behave lovingly to others.. or not; either you behave yourself in ways that enhance your relationship.. or not. But make no mistake, genuine love requires effort. If you want to build relationship that last, you must be willing to do your part."

I choose to love Mr Teng =)
