the exams are coming....

along with the cold....

argh....

peiyong got me to send my exam timetable to the ypg committee...so that they could pray together with me...feel that that is so comforting...

come to think of it, it's amazing how the Lord gives me so much strength, endurance...to keep me up the entire day with just 5-6 hours of sleep...not to mention nights of studying at CS with my dearest blockmates till 2 plus 3 in the morning...i could never have done it before...without the Lord with me...

argh..the exams!!! so much to study...i feel like i'm taking the a levels again..and believe me...i'd never want to take the a levels again....it's a nightmare...

anyway i finally finished my labreports for this sem!! feel so accomplished...and not to mention our group presentation went quite well!! :) at least our prof was smiling away...ooo...and also the bull run fundraiser was SUPER fun! group of claymates gathering for a good cause...organised by SGX s'pore...received quite a fair bit of publicity...which is also publicity for AAS!! 40% of the money raised goes to Autism Assoc! happy happy.... it was so crazy because fynn got the dj to play clay's 'invisible' and 'the way'....totally got us excited...pictures are uploaded..so if you wanna see how happy we were..go see...it never fails to make me smile.

some things have cropped up over the past few days....or the past 2 weeks...many things...both happy and sad...about my friends...everyone around him seems to have something troubling them...or bothering them....and i've had heart-to-heart talking sessions with some of them...and in the process i've gotten to know them so much better and with such greater depth...the beginnings of a great friendship...=) you can say i'm a good listener..not great..but good enough for my dearest friends...and they listen to me ramble all the time..so it's time i give something back to them...this is for you guys! thanks so much for sharing with me your life story, your hopes, dreams, past, present, future....

had a good time fellowshipping with pastor mitch and tr. aileen on saturday... feel nice..feel good..takes away the stress of everything...learnt so much from him during ypg... and he taught us a new song..which i already knew..hee~ Worthy of the Lamb...and as we were talking, we talked alot about songs...hillsongs (and the charismatic churches..) and darlene and avalon...so i sent him the link to clay's Mary Did You Know...a very beautiful and haunting song with very meaningful lyrics...

Mary Did You Know

by Clay Aiken

Album: Merry Christmas with Love
released on nov 16

Mary did you know
That your baby boy
Would one day walk
On water
Mary did you know
That your baby boy
Would save our sons
And daughters

Did you know
That your baby boy
Has come to make you new
This child
That you delivered
Will soon deliever you

Mary did you know
That your baby boy
Will give sight
To a blind man
Mary did you know
That your baby boy
Will calm the storm
With His hand

Did you know
That your baby boy
Has walked where angels trod
When you kiss
Your little baby
You kiss the face of God

Oh Mary did you know

Ooo...

The blind will see
The deaf will hear
The dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb

Mary did you know
That your baby boy
Is Lord of all creation
Mary did you know
That you baby boy
Would one day rule the nations

Did you know
That your baby boy
Is Heaven's perfect Lamb
This sleeping child
You're holding
Is the great
I Am
