Sovereignty. The right to govern his territories as well as the obligation to not govern the territories and issues of others.I came across this word on three occasions for the past 36 hours. First, it was BS, when Gabriel talked about God being "Sovereign". Then it was political science lecture, when Dr. Erik talked about the sovereignty of states. Then it was History tutorial.. when Dr. Kelly expounded on the legitimacy of shoguns and the sovereignty of the emperor. ARGH! Haha...One word, in three contexts... --Argh... beginning to miss you already. how arh? haa.. tim.
Yay. am gonna travel around half of singapore today. haha.going to sch for my tutorial class at 12, and after it ends at 2, i'll take a long mrt ride up north via the west line to Woodlands!! then I'll travel down to City Hall to meet my sis... and then I'll go over to riverwalk... and then I'll go home. haha. so random... okay lah. i go off le. byee.
He's right. I should be happy. No worries, I am much better than I was a few weeks ago. All of us have our valleys and mountain tops... But, I just need a little more time to open up, I guess. It's quite embarassing...Yup. God is still good. Haha.The End.
oh GREAT... another blow in my life...Murphy's Law is always true it seems...It's getting harder to trust God, but I will still try...even when the mountains tremble... and a thousand fall...
Had a much better sleep than i thought i would have...Life goes on...Okay... back to my South Asian Textbook. I love India and Pakistan. Haaa...
2:46AM...dazed...sleepy...but can't get myself to sleep...
I need some time to be alone.
TIme to do some solid reflections about the past week...School is as per normal. Lectures without tutorials are already killing me. Guess it's because I haven't been studying for the past 2 years. Struggling quite a bit in catching up in History and Political Science lectures. Ah well...Sis brought up a good revision strategy. Maybe I should heed her advice... might be able to save time and study more efficiently...Had an interesting conversation with Wenrui on Thursday over lunch at school canteen. As we were walking, he randomly said, "University time... best time to get a girlfriend..."For that split second, my mind froze...Recently, it seems that my friends around me keep talking about boy-girl relationships, getting attached, (even) getting married (!). Ah well..I think I will follow Wenrui's stance to this issue, after I asked him if he has one...Haha!It's good to be single...but not too long....O'well... life goes on. Disappointments do happen... just gotta wipe those tears away and carry on...

Hello... It has been a while since I really blogged... so hear goes my rantings for this week...Well, first up, it's not really a ranting... but prayer meeting is awesome!!! Hahas. It is Day Four of the 2 week season of prayer that church has been moving towards, and though it was physically challenging to wake up every morning at 540 just so that I can reach church at 7, it was a fruitful experience cos' you get to get in tune with what Pastor's vision is, and what God is going to do through the church and all. Yeah... I hope to last through the 10 days... 6 more to go... wheee~School started about 2 weeks ago. Orientation Week, or O Week in short, was really an eye-opener for me. Tough I have attended orientation camps when I was in secondary school and in JC, nothing can quite beat the experience of University Orientation. Gotta know quite a lot of people... my OG "Ta-Ching" is obviously one of the most happening OGs! Yeah man! Haha. Okay... gotta go for now. going in to LT for lecture.... Ciao...Timothy.

Stunning revelation. you'll know what i mean.
我受夠了等待你所謂的安排 說的未來到底多久才來總是要來不及才知道我可愛 我想依賴而你卻都不在 應該開心的地帶 你給的全是空白 一個人假日發呆 找不到人陪我看海 我在幸福的門外 卻一直都進不來 你累積給的傷害 我是真的很難釋懷 終於看開愛回不來 而你總是太晚明白 最後才把話說開 哭著求我留下來 終於看開愛回不來 我們面前太多阻礙 你的手卻放不開 寧願沒出息求我別離開 你總是要我乖慢慢計劃將來 我的眼淚卻一直掉下來 過去怎麼交代你該給的信賴 被你親手緩緩推入懸崖 從我臉上的蒼白 看到記憶慢下來 過去甜蜜在倒帶 只是感覺已經不在 而我對你的期待 被你一次次摔壞 已經碎成太多塊 要怎麼拼湊跟重來
我在陰暗中降落世界在雨中淹沒畫面與現實交錯無法抽離卡在胸口驅殼如行尸走肉陷阱旋渦我以受夠掙脫逃離追個空洞如果 我衝出黑幕籠罩的天空就別(想)再捆綁我的自由在狂風之中 嘶吼作困獸之鬥我奮力衝破封閉的思緒震開裂縫燃燒的花朵 升空 消失在空中記憶在剝落殘留的影像輪廓潰散在薄霧中
The night view of the city of Bangkok, from the city's tallest tower, BaiyokeII.Me and my crazy sister, on a tu-tu car, waiting for the driver to pump gas into his car. Apparently, gas ran out halfway during the journey.the place where all girls (and some guys) like... Platinum, a 7-storey high shopping centre with over 1,300 shops for you to choose from. Prices of items are so low, most items don't exceed 15 Singapore Dollars.Thailand's traffic was crazy. Thank God for tu-tu cars. They manoevre around easily...=DDDDDDD
Transitions... transitions... it seems like this period is never ending.... when I am going to enter into a real life-changing transformation?--Failed the test. Flared up. Lost my cool....didn't guard my emotions...--was really touched by what andrew blogged on his blog entry yst. to be honest, don't think i deserve those praises. because of the newer ones that came in, i sorta neglected his presence sometimes... and after much thought, i realised that if there is one person that I will really miss if he is missing, that is andrew.... yeah... gonna miss your presence man....--off to thailand in a few hours' time. i may or may not be contactable thru fone. you guys can try, sms me whatever you all need from thailand k? =D will try to get it for u guys. ...ciao...mao-mao. out.
it was LOUD!SO LOUD....that when I scream... my throat got stuck...
Show me the tomb where thou was laidTenderly mourned and weptAngels in robes of light arrayedGuarded thee whilst Thou slept.Lest I forget GethsemaneLest I forget Thy agonyLest I forget Thy love for meLead me to Calvary.
Happy are the people whose God is the LORD - Psalm 144:15---Can never forget this verse... this was the verse that Wayne preached about during my first cell group meeting in CHC...We are commanded to be HAPPY. This is the word of the Lord...Happiness is not a subjective mood based on different times and seasons. It is an attitude of optimism that everything is going to be alright, even though our circumstances seem to dictate otherwise."It does not take any effort to grow weeds in our gardens... if you love weeds in your garden, do nothing," Pastor Phil Pringle says. "...But it takes great discipline to grow great trees."Likewise, if you want to be pessimistic, do nothing. The devil will do the job for you.But it takes great effort, great tenacity and great faith to praise God even in your darkest hours. ---
Just came home from chilling-out with Lijia. We had a very interesting conversation about life, church, friends, and our personal lives... To be honest, I never thought that Lijia was a person who would want to meet me personally up. After all, I "promised" him that a few more others will meet him up, but it turned out that I was the only one around. But he still agreed to meet up. We met up at Essential Brew's. It was good, cos' I saw a different side of Lijia. In the past, (Lijia, I hope you are not reading this.. haha) I always think that Lijia is not the sociable kind of person, quite dao and all... but I realise that if you talk to him one-on-one, you will realise that he is quite approachable. CAPACITY!!! that's the word that has been ringing in my head recently. How big is your capacity? Can you handle extreme pressure, or are you quick to push the blame to others when the heat is on...? How much pressure can you take? I think it is time to "lengthen my cords"... and expand...!!Love rEVOLution!!.. woosh. camp is coming really soon! Getting kinda excited as to how God is going to move in this camp.... He always surprises me during camp. The unexpected will always happen in youth camps... =D LOUD Camp is happenin' 2nd June-4th June! =Dwoosh!!!!Okay. Shall stop blogging le! Need to do what I need to do. Bye.Tim.
it's gonna be a revolution...
i was rushing my way down to meet a few friends (17 of them actually) at marina square, and I learnt something...As I was already already late for the gathering, I walked frantically trying to locate the restaurant. I was told that it is "next to John Little". So here I was, walking around the whole of marina square, trying to recall where is John Little in Marina Square...Out of desperation, I cried out to God in my heart..."God, show me where's John Little...!"He didn't answer me verbally.I carried on my search, and out of a sudden, I see a huge sign which reads,"JOHN LITTLE #02- ..."The sign was right in front of me all these while. While looking at all directions, I forgot to take notice of my front view...Lesson learnt:Sometimes we can be so anxious about everything, that we miss the solution that is right in front of our very eyes.Chill... everything will be alright. =)
recently, it seems as though everyone is getting emo...so... here's a happy song to cheer u guys up =Da story of me... =)
Happy Mother's Day.
