Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move my mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

MARCUS LING LING LING! :D lol.
i just wanted to start off this post by thanking you. you've made me a really happy person today. (:
okayyyyyyyyyyy, ALL 4 PAPERS DOWNNNNNNNNNNNNNN! WOOHOOOOOOOOO! :D
physio paper was from 9-11am todayyy.
and most of us finished 1hour earlier. mr eddie, our handsome and charming lecturer for physiology set lesser questions than we expected. hehehe. but good la. i happy. (:
then after that, met marcus ling and jia hao and serene centre's macs. (:
LOL, jia hao is funny okay. i don't know how to put it. lol, i quarreled(not really quarrel) with him over this book and we were debating. lol. i think marcus' head was going to burst. LOL. we planned everything out and finally came up with our proposal and then found pastor gary in church and yes, our proposal has been approved! YAYY! :D
i had so much fun with them, planning, laughing like crazy people in macs and i think these 2 boys are really special. i'm glad i got a chance to work with them. i'm meeting up with them on sunday again. ((: we're pretty much excited for thursday. :)) hehehehehe.
after meeting p.gary, we walked to the bus stop and took 174. we were talking and talking and talking, enjoying the bus ride, marcus ling was sharing so much with me. from the bus stop to i don't know when. :)
apparently, we took the bus with the right number, but we took it in the opposite direction and we only realised it when we reached jurong area. we took a 174 bus back to head back to our destination, town.
marcus ling needed to get nice clothes cos his brother's getting married soon and jia hao was accompanying him and i was gonna meet my bestfriend to shop for nice clothes as well for the upcoming events. :)
sorry dear, i made you wait so long! i shouldn't have taken 174 but 171. sorrrryyyyy. i love you, you're such a sweetie. (:
so we were on the bus, and marcus ling and i sat together cos we were the ones who were really in a conversation. jia hao was listening to music and didn't talk much. so jia hao sat at another seat. the whole trip back to orchard road from boon lay interchange was filled with pretty amazing stuff.
marcus ling is a really nice person to talk to. a nice person to share your life with. it's nice to finally have someone in church whom i can really talk real stuff with other than my bestfriend and my 2 other darlings of course.
marcus ling has been in this church as long as i have, 9years. we practically grew up in trinity. we were water baptised on the same day, went through all the changes in church through all these years.
he's went through many rough patches during these few years, cried so much, felt broken so many times, but grown so much to where he is now. wrong relationships, torture, sadness, hurts, so much. but now, i see him so strong, impacting lives, changed.
the things that he shared with me, are countless. and i thought it was hard for me this whole time. but now, i realised, no. it was hard, but it ain't as hard as marcus' life.
i am amazed, how God has changed his life. :)
i am even more amazed at how similar our life is. really. like really same.
it was this similarity that led me to open up to him. to say things that i'd never share with church friends. things that i've kept inside for a really long time. things that i wouldn't imagine sharing with a person that i've just recently known. he listened attentively, i knew he could relate. he understood. it was a lot of spiritual stuff. but he's went through a lot. seriously. i am really encouraged by his life. (: but after everything, we both agreed on one thing:
we've both become stronger. not because we were comfortable with where our lives were, but we were placed in the most uncomfortable situations and bent to an extent that hurt so much that we felt as if we couldn''t bear it any longer. that's what made us stronger, cos it didn't break us. now we're stronger, right marcus? :)
we talked about alot la. we didn't stop during the whole bus ride can. lol. jia hao was listening to his music. lol.
don't worry marcus, my focus is right. and i know what i've to do. i know i can spend time doing things that matter to me, like planning poly retreat day with you guys and many more stuff. don't worry. (: moreover, your talk with me today has opened my views to much more. (: thank you.
the last thing that marcus said to me was something that i felt really touched by. because i've never heard anyone in church say this to me,
"i know it can be hard. but anytime you feel that you can't share anything with anyone in church, don't feel that way. you can always call me to talk, i'll be there to listen."
thank you marcus ling. :DD this bus ride would be unforgettable.
so, in the end, we finally reached orchard and we walked to far east where i met pingg dearie. (: then 4 of us went to subway to eat. jia hao and marcus' friend later joined us and when we finished, we went our separate ways. marcus was looking for a blazer and i called him when i saw this shop selling quite nice blazers and he came back from wisma to take a look. pingg and i left while they were taking a look cos pingg has a test tmr. :( JIA YOU DEARR! :D apparently, marcus bought his blazer from there. although i don't know how it looks like, i'm gonna see it on monday night during the christmas party. heheeheheh. (:
so pingggg and i went homee, it was a short but nice time spent with my bestfriend. :)
i love you dearie. I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOUUUUUU. :D
so that sums the day up. tmr's the dinner with dwightie. hehe. yayyyyy to meeting dwightie. :))))
so to end it all off, i feel really blessed, happy, i don't know. everything la. everything that makes a heart happy and rejoiceful. :)
Jesus, take the wheel.
i'll stop the world and melt with you.
