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

My heart skipped a beat as he gently brushed my hair away from my face before planting a kiss on me. The sweetness was unspeakable and I had to embrace him. How can anyone be so endearing? I almost couldn’t let go of him but I knew it was his bedtime. Jojo had to wave goodnight as he entered his sanctuary with Sharon.
So much to update. Where do I start?
TomSumJo are saccharine sweet – came over to my place to pass me a packet of chocolate with nuts (I love nuts) and two boxes of redcurrant puffs from Marks and Spencer on the night of Valentine’s Day. I was rather exhausted from tuition earlier on and a day packed with thoughts about my group presentation on Friday. Their brief visit beats all other means of releasing stress for me.
Uncle delivered a special pastry to my block on Wednesday and we chatted. He was so assuring – sent me an sms to welcome me to confide in him if I ever need to. He is one soul mate and a gift from God.
Another dear friend gave me a book on Wednesday too. Glad he is settling well in his new office and I really think he ought to take care of himself. Proud of his achievements too!
Zhiyong has been very encouraging too, with all his smses. Yep, still owe him a movie and he said he has a present for me. Can’t wait to see what it is.
Went to Suki Yaki with Marie, Shuxin and Sylvia quite some time ago. We had so much fun and it was a real treat in terms of fellowship. Took many pictures but I just keep having difficulty uploading them.
Had buffet at Sakura with TomSumJo, Mich, Didar, Jerome, Tim and Nicky last Sunday. Tim challenged Nicky to finish up a plate of weird concoction delicately prepared by Mich for a hundred dollars. Guess what? Nicky did it but vomited after that. Eeks! The reminder of it makes me nauseous.
Finally, I am done with the group presentation. I am very amused by DRT and I think the feeling is mutual. I made her laugh by my dramatic reading of poems and quotations. I love to see her giggling away because it is so girlish. And she is such a nice person, I believe I will woo her if I were a man. Unfortunately, I am not and just to be safe, I better make this point – I am straight.
Am a little frustrated over unclear guidelines and instructions given by a tutor for assignments. Why do people keep changing their minds? I think DPT is an excellent tutor. He teaches explicitly, except that sometimes he comes across as aloof and sarcastic (according to a few of my friends)
CNY was fun and I had a great time catching up with relatives and friends. Took countless pictures but had problem uploading again. Met up with Dage, Wei and Erge. Finally, Dage and Wei are tying the knot. I was ecstatic! Tasked to either perform or be the emcee for their wedding dinner. Guess what I chose?
Will be madly busy with many assignments, projects, tests due. And I am trying to adjust to a rather major change taking place in my life… …
