I posted an entry on the 15th of Jan 2008 which reads the same title, well, i'm finally letting it out! I have been stabilizing a new blog!

Haha, yupp, it's taken a month to iron out the widgets and formatting but hey! IT'S FINALLY UP! Check it out:

The Living Times

from now on, do go to the above page (= thanks for following my blog and do update your links! 

Haha, this is pretty neat =P

They Say it is Coming...

2009

It's the start, of something new...

There's so much to say, so much being felt,
My heart's content, my mind's emotions,
too many to pen in such an entry.

All will be revealed in time

Christmas was great,
in the year 2008,
with dinners and talks and lots that we ate.

All will be revealed in time

So for those who know,
my heart's prayer,
Please do pray hard, that God's will be done

That fears be allayed and that questions be answered,
That doubts will fade and trust prevail.
That the One who does immeasurably more than we can ever ask or imagine, be the same one who takes centre stage in life and lead the way through the thick snow of uncertainty.


All will be revealed, in time.

My ONE AND ONLY backup plan for UK has just turned me down =( have this feeling I screwed up the UCAS Application =X

As God shuts the doors to London, I thank Him for making it even clearer where I am to go real soon (=

1 Down, 4 in the US to go.
Still praying very much for MIT though =P


Lord, Your will, not mine be done (=

One truth which leads to eternity,
No one could really fathom, yet
Everyone chooses to ignore.

More than just words in a book,
Or lessons from Sunday School,
No knowledge can ever fully comprehend,
The truth, that
He loves us more than we can ever imagine.



the one who knows who this is for, call me when you read this. The solution is simple yet elegant.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Chart the path ahead.
Humble me to accept your plan.
Use me, for your glory.
In Christ alone I place my trust.
Through it all, give me peace.
In times of struggle, rescue me from my adversities.
Not my will, but yours be done.
God, You alone can do all these and more than I can ever imagine.

Commit the days ahead into your holy hands. In Jesus Name I pray.

Amen

(:

ahhh bummer... i burnt my hashbrowns for the first time in my life -.-

The Promise is FINALLY here. It's been a long and arduous journey for the cast and support team. Unlce Peng Mun and I have been shooting a bit for the promo and magazine but this wed-sat will be serious shooting. 2 shows a day, 3 days in a row + 1 full dress almost guarantees a dead beat me by Sunday =X

Got my 1DmkIII and 16-35mm f2.8L from Keh Whoo today (haha, the 10fps is TOTALLY exhilarating! the shutter is like chicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchicchic.......) and hence the packing and charging and prep starts once again...
