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

Caught Just My Luck quite some time ago with a friend. Learnt quite a few things about life from him. Not that he preached to me purposefully but those were what I caught while mingling with him. He is a joker so being with him is fun. Quite animated too, just like me at times. And he insisted on paying each time we are out. I usually go dutch when I am out with friends. But he... ... okay, I bought the lemon tea. Haha. He is quite a transparent person. In fact, he told me he was angry with me (my fault) rather frankly. I really appreciate that. I will not take it so well usually but somehow this time, God made me think otherwise. And the weird thing is, we've known each other for less than a month. To be so frank to a new found friend is so rare. He actually was so comfortable (I hope so) that he told me much about himself (things you don't normally share with strangers) even before we met. Truly a friend God sent.
He is really inspiring as an educator. He goes the extra mile and thoroughly believes in and supports his students. No wonder he has won the hearts of many. Hope that he will win many souls too. Sometimes I find him a tough nut to comprehend. He has his principles and a set of beliefs in managing issues. At times, he can be so melancholic as well. I guess beyond the comical and light-hearted facade is the more soft-hearted and emotional side, maybe the darker side too. Haha.
Realised I get into my 'lunatic' mode quite often these days. I think Tommy, Sharon, Daryl, Simon, Wei Chin, Datong, Cindy, (even) Huiyun and a few others are quite taken aback. Hehe. Bet they have not seen this side of me. I am normally the sensible, 'controlled' Gillian. Now, the Gillian who breaks into laughter, songs and Malaysian accent at the weirdest moments, escapes rather often. Oooo... ...
Started school yesterday. Had a great time catching up with Marie and Chris. Not enough actually. Never mind, we still have many more days ahead. Got my Practicum File and APT form back. My NIE Supervisory Coordinator (NSC) sang my praises. Of course there are areas I can improve further in and I will keep them in mind to work on. She was also very friendly and warm to me. Really God's favor.
