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

One of my tutorials was somnolent. First, the ‘thirty-ish’ (that was how he introduced himself) tutor assumed we wanted to watch X-Men because we hankered after Wolverine’s chest hair. Then he instructed us to look for a partner, not a life partner, to discuss our answers. Finally, he merely copied the answers from a script onto the whiteboard, and told us to duplicate the answers on our papers. He had to almost entirely rely on one classmate to assist him in maneuvering the computer, lighting, projector etc. And I salute Lee Ching for yawning loudly right in front of him. Haha. Have to give him another chance, I supposed. Maybe it will get better? Remain eupeptic, Gil!!!
I am so glad to be in A’s class. Learnt lots of new and fascinating things in school though some are pretty dry. How do you pronounce ‘differ’? Are you saying ‘defer’ instead? The emphasis is on ‘di’ for the former and ‘fer’ on the latter. Any idea what pneumonultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis is? Break the word up into smaller bites to decipher. It is actually black lung disease. What has sense and reference according to traditional and modern views? What are the differences between phonetics and phonology? What are the differences between semantics and pragmatics? What exactly is counseling psychology? How do you cultivate humanity in education? What are your opinions on moral, citizenship, multicultural, and religious education? More to come!
This is frightening but as I was doing my quiet time and reading the bible this morning, I began asking myself ‘Does this have reference? Sense?’. Eeewwww… … On a better note, I have been reading Elizabeth George’s Woman After God’s Own Heart and it really motivates me on how to be one! The author is inspiring - the things she does as a wife, mother, friend, minister, preacher, speaker etc. – and I am encouraged on how to be an excellent wife and mother (when the day comes). Can’t wait to finish the book, but as it is understood, there are many things which scream for our attention and we need to prioritise.
Registered for a singing competition with Pearlyn in NIE all in the name of fun. We need to attend the audition first though. It will be a totally new experience! Carpe diem!
Longing and withdrawing
Opening and closing
Thinking and pausing
Trying and quitting
Argh… … Tension and conflicts.
