Tumultuous period, my inner being is conflicted and my hard shell needs to crack; by faith I hang on and believe...even if all is silent on Your end, I will wait upon You and I know You will never leave me nor forsake me!


Internship has been okay, I will not say much about it since I only have just completed my second day.. It will get better!


Just some songs I have been listenning to recently..





In open fields of wild flowers,
she breathes the air and flies away
She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses
in no simple language
Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all
He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on her lips
Someday she'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He'll call her and she will come running
and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she'll pray,


I want to fall in love with You


Sitting silent wearing Sunday best
The sermon echoes through the walls
A great salvation through it calls to the people
who stare into nowhere, and can't feel the chains on their souls


He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on our lips
Someday we'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He'll call us and we will come running
and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we'll pray,


I want to fall in love with You


It seems too easy to call you Savior
Not close enough to call you God
So as I sit and think of words I can mention
to show my devotion


I want to fall in love with You


my heart beats for You..



- Love Song for a Saviour, Jars of Clay





I am the only one to blame for this
Somehow it all ends up the same
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride
I flew too high and like Icarus I collide
With a world I try so hard to leave behind
To rid myself of all but love
to give and die


To turn away and not become
Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves
more deeply than the oceans,
more abundant than the tears
Of a world embracing every heartache


Can I be the one to sacrifice,
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow?


To love you - take my world apart
To need you - I am on my knees
To love you - take my world apart
To need you - broken on my knees


All said and done I stand alone
Amongst remains of a life I should not own
It takes all I am to believe
In the mercy that covers me


Did you really have to die for me?
All I am for all you are
Because what I need and what I believe are worlds apart



I look beyond the empty cross,
forgetting what my life has cost,
and wipe away the crimson stains,
and dull the nails that still remain.
More and more I need you now,
I owe you more each passing hour,
the battle between grace and pride,
I gave up not so long ago.
So steal my heart and take the pain,
and wash the feet and cleanse my pride,
take the selfish, take the weak,
and all the things I cannot hide.
Take my beauty, take my tears,
the sin-soaked heart and make it yours,
take my world all apart,
take it now, take it now.
And serve the ones that I despise,
speak the words I can't deny,
watch the world I used to love
fall to dust and thrown away

I look beyond the empty cross,
forgetting what my life has cost,
so wipe away the crimson stains,
and dull the nails that still remain.
so steal my heart and take the pain,
take the selfish, take the weak,
and all the things I cannot hide,
take the beauty, take my tears,
take my world apart, take my world apart..
I pray, I pray, I pray..
take my world apart.

It has been a real test of perserverance! Hahaha, but I am still holding on...



God above, I'm in awe
Of Your perfect love
Humbly I come to Your throne
of grace
For a taste of You


Jesus Christ, I'm in awe
Of Your sacrifice
Holy I stand in Your presence here
I am near to You


I'm praying Lord break me
I'm praying Lord take me
I'm praying Lord make me
All I've failed to be


God above, I'm in awe
Of Your perfect love
Humbly I come to Your throne
of grace
For a taste of You


Jesus Christ, I'm in awe
Of Your sacrifice
Holy I stand in Your presence here
I am near to You


When all around is falling out
When I forget what I'm about
Sometimes the best that I can do
Is to desire to desire You


Break my heart, take me Lord
Make me whole
I need You
God above..

End of the semester!! I am extremely elated, the feeling of liberation has been hovering over me like a happy cloud since yesterday. Managed to catch...




yesterday at Bugis Junction; I LOVED it, I actually felt slightly saddened after the movie that he passed on before any of this could be brought to the world stage. However, it was an amazing glimpse into the production and an inspiring testimony of one man's world-shaking capability. Honestly, the visual effects were astounding, and the way they kept it fresh and updated despite being songs from old was absolutely awe-inspiring.


R'laxing it up before my 7-week long internship at Club 21 starts on Monday, office job here I come... with a spring in my step and a smile in my heart, that is what I have been trying to inspire myself to feel, haha! Other things I am looking forward to in this tail end of the year is retreating back to Malaysia!


Seeing my small cousins, waking up to burning incense every morning, feeling the cool crisp morning air, breakfast on the table, milo in plastic cups, houseflies buzzing around the kitchen table, dogs barking, cows in the field, rain pattering onto the zinc roof, brilliant lights of the street lamps through the rain while I'm sitting in the car, the view of the spectacular mountains, visits to the unknown areas, running from dogs, late-night suppers, old-fashioned hawker centres, CHEAP FOOD, rustic buildings, homey touches, sweltering afternoons, cool nights, mosquitoes buzzing, lizards on the walls, 8-hour car rides ♥


It must be a movie weekend; going to catch Poker King later. It feels good not going to work on a Saturday! Helllooooo again nothing-to-do weekends, I have missed you so!

Been ages since I last updated about anything substantial. Well, it's finally Thursday, one more day 'til freedom; though albeit a short-lived one because Monday I officially start my 7-week long internship. There flies my holidays, haha.


Though disgruntled as I am over the lack of pay, I still have faith in a God who provides; so though all is silent on the other end, I am believing! The weeks have been pretty packed up with workload, though I must be thankful for the fact that Management has not been as stressful as what Design would have been. I still manage to pack in at least 5 hours of sleep a day, and Management as been spared the submission of certain items (i.e V&P, YAY).




A class photo we took on our field trip to Ion; I believe this was earlier this month or something, I have completely lost track of time.




Another class photo, this one taken at Juno's birthday lunch at Millenia Walk; should have been last Monday I believe.




Raudhahhhh =)




On Saturday, we went to the Flyer for Qinny's birthday!






Had loads of fun with them, it was so good to see everyone again!



Had my Branding presentation yesterday, I am so glad that's over! The last presentation is tomorrow for Studio work, fingers crossed! I hope there will be tickets to watch 'This is It' tomorrow after Studio =)

You're the sky that I fell through
And I remember the view
Whenever I'm holding you
The sun hung from a string
Looking down on the world as it warms over everything
Chills run down my spine
As our fingers entwine
And your sighs harmonize with mine
Unmistakably
I can still feel your heart beat fast when you dance with me
We got older and I should've known (Do you feel alive?)
That I'd feel colder when I walk alone (Oh, but you'll survive)
So I may as well ditch my dismay
Bombs away, bombs away


Circle me and the needle moves gracefully
Back and forth
If my heart was a compass you'd be north
Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall
Wherever you go
If my heart was a house you'd be home


It makes me smile because you said it best
I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the west
Flower balm perfume, all my clothes smell like you
Cause your favorite shade is navy blue
I walk slowly when I'm on my own (Do you feel alive?)
Yeah, but frankly I still feel alone (Oh, but you'll survive)
So I may as well ditch my dismay
Bombs away, bombs away


Circle me and the needle moves gracefully
Back and forth
If my heart was a compass you'd be north
Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall
Wherever you go
If my heart was a house you'd be home


If my heart was a house you'd be home



- If My Heart was a House, Owl City



Awwww. Maybe one day I will meet someone who can make me feel this way, haha! Kudos to Jun Hong for the excellent intro.


I have just realised my sore lack of updates, maybe I will update more after this week when all the presentations are over; until then I have got to get back to my 6,000 word report!


(Saturday, October 17, 2009)


It hasn't been an easy week, sometimes I don't understand why it's so difficult for me now, is it because I cannot open my heart? But yet again, my heart is hungering for so much, what is wrong?


In spite of all that, I want to keep believing, this drought will end soon even if it takes me forty days and forty nights and the floodgate, I know, will open like never before.


'Til then.. by faith, I believe..



Mercies that rise with the new morn,
set me apart as a newborn.
Each moment I live,
by faith I believe,
with You, I'm never alone.


Darkness may come, trials seem so long,
You are the light I depend on.
Through valleys and storms,
Your Word keeps me strong,
my shelter, refuge and song.
I trust in You.


Everyday I live,
I know You are my God.
I lift my face and look to You my Lord.
Even when the mountains tremble,
and a thousand fall,
I will stand with You,
my Jesus, take my all.




I want to sing,
until I am lost in Your love.
'Til I'm found in Your presence,
worshipping before Your throne.
Move by Your Spirit,
entering into Your flow.
How precious this moment,
Lord, I want You to know.


It's You, You who have won my heart,
taken me into Your arms,
comforted me like a friend.
Your love,
surrounded me from the start,
I never want to be apart
from You ever again.

Fridayyyy..I had to drag myself out of bed at 7am in the morning to go for my 9am class. I was deathly afraid that class was going to be about things like public speaking, or teaching you to be more assertive; after all, a class is not called 'Leadership' for no good reason, right?


I am very happy to be proven totally and completely wrong. Circe talked about Visual Merchandising (although it is not a great area of interest to me) and then, took us on a spontaenous trip to Ion. We were split into groups and took cabs down. Mine visited Prada & Herve Leger (Er-Ver Lee-Gee), snubbed pretty much on the first trip to Herve Leger, but when Circe came in with us they were more friendly. Saw Circe's networking skills come into play and it was quite interesting.


Met up with the rest of the class at Starbucks to smell all the tantalising coffee but I couldn't drink anything, (milk!) and then we went down to Far East for lunch. (Kind of) shared fried rice with Raudhah but she barely eats I tell you, we left half the plate unfinished.


Back to schooooool in another cab, for Studio class. Lo and behold, my heart was set on hearing a brief for an individual project then, but she dropped a bombshell that we would be staying in the same group. To clarify things, I have no issue with my group members as friends, but I just have problems with teamwork as I am a more independent worker. 3 weeks for one assignment, got to hurry our asses off.


Left, bumped into some classmates outside the lift, it was the 4 Berries VS the 2 Apples (congregation of the Fruits) as we all got panicky over the Internet usage for a bit. Then I left with Raudhah for MRT to BB.


Burger King for dinner! Then off to Zibing's. I still remember the route, yay me. Haven't prayed so much for awhile, my spirit-man is low on stamina. Had a pretty good CGM, headed home and was so tired, I went to bed early by my standards.


Thankful that my boss does not need my services so early today, haha. I could sleep in a little and am heading off for work later since my movie outing is pushed to tomorrow. Got to start doing my work for Branding and Studio before it all piles up on meeeeeeee..


Priorities, priorities, there's only one main one to seek first and foremost of them all.
