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

Just watched The Leap Years with Zhiyong. Haven’t met up with him for a long time. To imagine he had to pass me my Christmas present before the movie started. Was chatting with him, Uncle and his girlfriend at McDonald’s before getting the tickets. The movie wasn’t very fantastic (as it was rather predictable and I was pretty calm while watching it) but it did thug at my heart a few times. Love the quotes, some of which are as followed:
A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.
It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
In three words, I can sum up everything I’ve learnt about life: it goes on.
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
Coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous.
If you are not too long, I will wait for you all my life.
Some of my sentiments about the show? Your ‘bestest’ friend knows when you are truly happy and fights for you using unconventional means (to the extent of challenging norms and cultures). Love is fathomless and has immense power to motivate. Don’t speak too soon and never say never. To wait for someone for 12 years is unimaginable and I hope that I will not have to wait for the next leap year to fall in love. To get somebody out of your mind, you have to engage more than just a neurosurgeon. Love means sacrifices. Absence does make the heart grow fonder. Love strikes when you least expect it. It takes a lot of courage to not be attached in the face of cruel loneliness. The course of true love never did run smooth (and Shakespeare is incredibly wise?). Want to know more? Ask me. Haa. And yes, I cried… …
Celebrated Kuen's birthday at Bei Sheng and the super cute Ultraman cake!

This mushroom is so adorable I almost couldn't bring myself to consume it.

Had dinner with dad tonight. He wanted KFC (I knew it!) and there we were, at Causeway Point.

Present from Zhiyong - the necklace reminds me of something but I cannot put a finger to it.

Better rest soon. Slept at 6am and woke up at 9.30am. Insomnia. Blame it on the topics I was on with a friend on the line? Got me thinking. And I have to wake up early tomorrow to go to church (before time for service) to practise singing as today's practice was rather (in my opinion) inadequate. Night...
