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

Was completely appalled at and disgusted with one of my tutees’ behaviour, and I am not apologetic at all when I say this. Despite being late (and this is not the first time), she walked past me without any form of acknowledgement (no eye contact) and failed to greet me after opening the door without knocking! I was initially merely displeased and told her off mildly, expecting a simple ‘sorry’. However, she repeatedly ignored my questions and when I asked if she was unhappy with me, she replied ‘no’ when all her facial and physical expressions (such as rolling her eyes in an absolutely irritating manner) were shouting otherwise. It was lucid she felt indignant about being reprimanded – played with and threw her stationery loudly on her desk. Imagine, she is only thirteen! Where are all her basic manners? The most ironic of all, she is from 1 Respect of XX Primary School. Believe most of them are shocked at my outburst – Tze Ying mentioned that it was my first time being so fierce. Seriously, I am still pretty cross – what has she been learning?
On a happier note, I have no regrets working with Ling and QY. They could be the funniest persons alive! I was practically laughing non-stop while teasing QY with Ling during a group project discussion. Ling and her endless anecdotes about her beau (AGK) simply tickle me. Am so glad I gave myself this opportunity to work with them – the friendship forged is priceless.

Sweet Pearlyn bought me a ginormous donut on Monday - had it for lunch.
Azman (no idea if I spelt his name correctly) was so well dressed today that I couldn't resist taking a picture of him. He was blushing when I made that sudden request. He even brought us snacks!
Had dinner with dad on Saturday and he found the Hot Devil drumlets at KFC too spicy.
This was a rare discovery - was wondering what this little black lump was doing on my rice when I decided to take a closer look.
I was rewarded with something extra for patronising XX stall - a baby snail! And I was almost done with my plate of food. So cute!!!
My throbbing neck pain was cured after soaking in this tub of bubbling water at my aunt's place. Amazing! They call it 'Spa'.
What is wrong? Easy...
The seemingly endless and countless projects are all screaming for attention simultaneously. Frightening!
