rediscovering eden
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

YAY!!!!! exams are allllllll over :D:D:D finally after 2 crazy weeks of studying and procrastinating...my 3rd year of uni is over @.@ omg that sounds so fast. i'm going into my fourth year. i'm going into my fourth year. I'M GOING INTO MY FOURTH YEAR! AHHHH!!!! haha auntie margaret's been saying that i'll be graduating ever since i was in my first year LOL but now it really IS coming to a close *gulp*
anyways enough of all that hoo-haas and back to the important stuff! LOL so as of now i have 2 weeks before i leave for hong kong and then...*drum roll*
SINGAPORE!!!! yes ladies and gentlemen eden the frozen mushroom is finally returning for a short (but definitely long-awaited) visit to sunny island singapore!!!! i'm still in the process of getting my tickets from hong kong to singapore but for now, it's probably gonna be from
May 18th to June 1st :D I CAN'T WAIT!!!! it's been what, almost 4 years since i've last seen u guys? and i know, the timing might suck coz i won't be able to see a couple of you guys studying overseas now but what can i say...it's the price i have to pay for cheap tickets? LOL and also coz i cant impose on my aunt for too long coz she's in the process of moving at that time too so :) but i'm looking forward to seeing the rest of you! even if once or twice, i'm happy!
okie moving on to the next most important thing: my family's moving to calgary!!!! hahaha yes within 5 years of moving here, we're uprooting and moving again...but this time it's only my parents coz my dad got a job as a pastor in a church in calgary so both him and my mum are going down but effie and i are gonna stay here and finish our degrees at the u of a :D well technically i'll be gone next year so effie's gonna be alone for the whole year...which built up alot of problems for her housing...it's been a pain for all of us (especially her though) thinking of what to do @.@
seriously, i think this semester's been really hectic for our whole family...straining all of us in different ways, bringing waves upon waves of tests. with my grandma passing away and us flying over to toronto, mummy staying in toronto for almost 3ish months, my whole not-very-smooth applications for the exchange, hong kong SAR passport and all relevant documents (which required another trip to calgary), daddy's past internship church thingy, the whole moving thing and dealing with all the problems that were arising, trying to get along with my parents and reasoning with them about all the different views we have...man this semester was tough. my classes were heavy too and i barely survived the exams @.@ getting Bs for almost all my courses were definitely not what i needed to get that scholarship to japan but still, i know i dont deserve anything better than a B for the effort i put in. let's just hope that maybe in some miraculous ways, i can still get that scholarship to lighten all my financial burdens in japan :D
LOL oh man sorry that paragraph turned out so whiny @.@ i mean of coz, this semester had it's great moments too :D japanese class was awesome (as it always is every year!) being so corny with melissa and danny (go ganguro family!), getting made fun of by aaron and marc :'D talking with the various people in our class, i love jap class because on top of learning the language, i'm free to be the person that i am...and i meet more wonderful people like sensei, mizuni, bonita, vivian and chee! :) most of these people mentioned above have either just graduated or will have graduated by the time i get back so this term is pretty much the last time i'll be having class or going to school with them :( i was sitting in my jap final last thursday and i was thinking to myself, this might very well be my last jap final ever and the last time sitting in the same classroom with these people, and i really wanted to relish that moment then...so i sat there for a longer time than i required to finish the test LOL! yes weird i know, but really, jap class has made such an impact in my life here...it's given me a glimpse of my singaporean days, a passion for something and most of all, an assurance that i am still me :) ありがとう.
