Drifting

Got introduced to this video by Yi Xi from the performance department yesterday, when he showed the video. I'm like, ouch. Not to mention you can find my jaw rolling on the floor for quite a bit as well. This is rather incredible. Hmm. So far, so good. Managed to clear another hurdle earlier in the evening in regards to the concert. Now, all that's left is to practice, practice and practice. Still yet to practice with Jiaxing, and Wijaya and Yong'an. Did meet up with the latter 2 on sunday at Wijaya's place, went through some songs, but not all the songs that were on our list. Have like, 7 or so songs that are available for song dedication and we've only gone through like 2.5. Sigh. Ah well, have to meet up more. No time left. Thank God that at least the venue can be settled now. Back to LT 1.10 for us. Just have to pray now that the sound will be ok and we won't have to spend frustrating moments running up and down tweaking the mixer.

My room tv just gave up on me. Just as I was watching American Idol, something broke and smoke belched from the set. Though the image was still clear. Sigh. And it was already giving warning signals some time ago when it was kinda static and gave out lots of noise. Maybe cos I've not used my tv for some time before recently. Used to turn it on a lot in the past due to my game consoles, but not much these days as I'm too busy to play. Ah well. Now there's a big space in the corner of my room. Gonna feel a bit weird not seeing my tv there since I've moved here 8 years ago. Now, can still smell the smoke in my room, even though the windows are open *cough cough* Guess I'll have to leave them open for a bit; usually they are closed as they extend almost to the ceiling.

Working on a song at the moment. Finally managed to write a bit and record it down. Got down one verse and the chorus so far. Was working on the 2nd verse while the performance department guys were practicing yesterday, but have yet to accompany it on guitar. Might want to write down the whole thing and re-record it again. So far those who heard it commented it's nice. Though I feel my vocals suck, heh. Anyone willing to give free vocal lessons?

"In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans we cannot express. And he who searches our hearts know the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will." Romans 8:26-27

Diahorrea

Thank you for this moment
I gotta say how beautiful you are
For all the hopes and dreams
I could have prayed for
Here you are
If I could have one dance forever
I would take you by the hand
Tonight it's you and I together
I'm so glad I'm your man

And if I lived a thousand years you know
I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you that day
But if destiny decided I should look the other way
Then the world will never know
The greatest story ever told
And did I tell you that I love you tonight
- The greatest story ever told, Oliver James

Been having diahorrea for the last few days, since Monday. We had an early dinner of chicken rice in the canteen in school, since we got soci in the evening at 6. Kinda draining, the lecture. Was virtually falling asleep towards the end, but thank God it ended early, and we took the 74 to Ang Mo Kio, and from there, seperately back home.

Been a while since I last blogged. Been busy (then again, when was I not busy? :p). Guitar, church, cell, and my revision pretty much took up most of my time. Time's running out for the concert, and I've only finished the proposal to submit. Now, will just need the design for the poster to be up, before I can email it out to Caroline to get it approved. 15th February, mark it down yeah? Sim's gonna rock at lunchtime, haha. Or at least we'll attempt to rock Sim at lunchtime. (ok, now, I don't need rotten tomatoes thrown at me :p) Still need to think about fund-raising, budgeting, songs to play, logistics, publicity. List seems endless at the moment. Wondered how I did it last year. With God's grace, I guess. Now, I'll need to rely on God again. Philippians 4:19 -> And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Thank God as well, for the people around me who have helped with the planning and discussion so far.

Gonna make it a short post. Need to wake up early later in the morning. Thinking of heading to school early to finish my pbf assignment so that I can hand it in in the afternoon, and then meet HS for lunch at 12. Definitely no chicken rice for us, gonna be boycotting the stall for the rest of our time at Sim. Keep me in prayer, my dear reader. For my diahorrea, specialist appointment for my gout this coming monday, and for my new "commitment" (for those who do know about it, will need a lot of prayer and guidance).

Time to sleep. Good night, y'all.

"I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety." Psalm 4:8
