Psalm 18:34 It is GOD that girded me with strength;
that made my way perfect
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

im reading this book: The power of the positive teenit rather impactful, i think it really applies to me and how i view the way i live and how to cope with my lifestyle. before reading this book, one of my personal m0ttos was already to stay positive and optimistic despite the circumstances..i think many people dont know that or cant tell from my actions, but being optimistic for the past few months has kept me happy and alive (i mean, yes kpop also contributed to me being happy- just listen to the SM Album songs)but more than that, it about feeling happy with my strengths and to stop mulling over my own weaknesses.heres a short excerpt from the book: -Be glad about our weaknesses: Because the reason why we are upset with ourselves is not beacuse the way God created us , but becuase of our own choices..We can replace our low self-esteem with CHRIST-esteem![how cool is that] Read Romans 5:3-11 for a better understandingits time to get my bum off and start studying.im feeling uneasy [but not depressed, im supposed to be a happy and positive teen remember?]due to 2 things:- the fact that im missing exco meetings AND CE just to study.is that a correct choice? i dont know,beacuse its really my own choice to make. sometimes i feel as if im letting the youths down and GOD down because i m really unable to serve as wholeheartedly and joyfully as before because of prelims and O levels- i dont want to be critical of people who get emotional and all hyped up over small matters! i feel bad for judging those who are totally different from me in terms of emotional quota: okay i mean, it doesnt exactly irritate me, but sometimes i just feel like saying:'cmon just get over it, its no big deal'..its as if i feel that people who get so emotional and worked up easily are weak in nature, being unable to suppress their feelings and get on with the more pressing things/tasks ahead in the day or week. its really mean, i know..but thats how i feel. but maybe because they're different, me on the other hand, can get over things easily without having the suppress whatsover feelings intentionallywhy are people so complicated?

WOW (: the MV was finally released..its fun, yet rather dissapointing because all of the 28artistes were so busy, they didnt have time to come together to film a proper MV together
the MV is basically made up of shots from the photoshoots, recording studios and sm july concert
i woder how they recorded the song in the studio. the atmosphere must have been awesome!

my (and cherie's, since she actually offered to share the cost with me) SM SUMMER TOWN 2007 ALBUM HAS ARRIVED in the mail! (: the songs keep me happy..Especially "Lets Go On A Trip", the main song that everyone sings together. i will post the performance video of CSJH and Suju singing the main song at music bank- dbsk,BoA,kangta couldnt make it, so they sang extra lines in place for the others who werent there that day :( i want a summer 2007 smtown mv for "lets go on a trip"
im craving for bibimbap.i dont know why either.
kpop aside,i think im getting more afraid of failure. i dont know if i can make it past Os. im not being pessimistic now, but i have this bad feeling anyway..but somehow, im glad that i pray more often than i do QT-yes, i know im accountable to do QT, but prayer IS more personal, i need to learn to strike a balance and enjoy reading God's Word
these few days are important now, the rare times where i can really concentrate and revise at full steam..i hate how studying is so important in our society.really.its too early to make a list of what i want to do after Os- my time of freedom
maybe i'll just do a short and concise one for now, its going to lengthen as Os draw near:
1. Go prom shopping with rachel and yueyun.
2. Get back 100% into YF and Ex-co, 4 months away is way to long.
3. Immerse myself in kpop (: ahah.i wanted to watch the drama "coffee shop prince" and "air city" and "goong S"and movie"200 pounds beauty" for eons, i guess it will have to wait.and dong bang's 4th korean album is coming out early 2008.and SM town winter album 2007 would be out by november! so many things to anticipate
4.Learn a new language (higher priority than learning instrument): right now, korean is top at the list [obviously]..french would be good too- i hate learning things halfway through, i still regret dropping french in sec2.
5.Learn a new instrument: guitar or flute would be good.i always want to try playing something else rather than piano. guitar would definitely be useful, esp for worship sessions!
6. Buy kimchi and gobchang chilli paste and make bibimbap or kimchi fried rice
happy national day
taken today with clarissa's camera- i had a bad fringe day :( but happy moments with friends make up for it!

WOW. dong bang's five in the black concert(29th July) was the best i have ever seen. And this two songs, proud and lovin you were ripped from the live broadcast and they my favourite japanese ballads (:
lovin you was magical- with the nice lighting and confetti thing. Proud was so emotional- with them crying tears of joy and gratitude after working so hard for 2.5 years since their debut in japan.
vocals were alright for a live performance, jaejoong was so poor thing, had to sing both choruses for lovin you..but he improved his live singing by a lot! and for proud, when micky broke down, changmin sang for him
Absolutely breathtaking. one performance that i can keep rewatching (:

we went on for dinner at a japanese restaurant at shagri-la hotel on sunday, it has been such a long time since we went out for dinner as family, and we had great fun trying to take pictures of our food and everyone else..it wasnt typical japanese food, alot of the dishes came in small portions and were very well decorated and arranged (: it was good!
cherie and I: all the pictures are kinda dark because i insisted on turning off the flash before we actually used the camera, didnt want to be rude or disturb the other patrons!
the 4 of us: at the hotel lobby after the dinner (: i really love pictures that have all of us together, they are always wonderful memories
Fois gras chawanmushi! it was so good (the picture doesnt do it justice), only mum and I could appreciate the fusion of both flavous
my wonderful main course (: the waygu beef was so marbled-like..Oishi!
