.|.It's a new year....|.

Date: 31st December 2006
Music: Fly away, Nelly
Mood: Reminiscent

Will make this post short, as will be going out pretty soon..

It's the last day of 2006!! Can you believe it? I mean, it's been sososo fast. Seems like only yesterday that i was standing in the school field, hoping i'd be streamed into a good class. So it was ironic that when i was standing outside the doors of the main snctuary this morning, Kar Kien actually said something like "Hi Su-lyn, Form 5 is in 3 days!" ... I suppose that when you're actually doing things, time passes by so quickly. Really, a lot of things have happened, many things have changed. Some good, some bad. But undeniably, life's like that. And over the last 365 1/4 days, i've seen and been through more changes than i have ever been through before. In a way i'm glad that 2006 is over, and that there's this new chance of doing better in 2007. Like Pst. Hong Seng mentioned this morning, there's still that looong list of New Year resolutions from last year that i still haven't worked through yet.. xD

This is the day You've made
So i will lift my voice and give You praise
This is the day You've made
So i will lift my voice and give You praise
You are worthy, You are worthy
You are worthy, you are worthy

Lord when You are glorified
My heart is satisfied to know
All praise and honor are Yours
And when all creation sings
To you the King of Kings we know
All praise and honor are yours

[I will worship, Paul Baloche]

Truly, 2007 is going to be different and i'm SO looking forward to it being just that. =]

Wishing all my lovely readers as well as friends and family a very HAPPY NEW YEAR, may the year 2007 be bigger, better, and seriously more kick-ass than any year before it!!!

So people, throw on your party hats and shoes to welcome in a fab new year!! Take care and enjoy!! =]

Hugs, smiles, and lots of luuurrrve,

.|.Superwoman.|.

Date: 22nd December 2006 Music: These Walls, Teddy Geiger Mood: Blehhhhh...

Just got off the phone with Kor, feeling like life's just sucking the life out of me. Ironic, huh? Was a pretty fun chat, just disussing the little, or rather, big things that keep poking us in the sides, making us uncomfortable in our respective lives. I'm very tired, actually. Not just tired, but kinda weary too. Like blur, y'know? If you just came up to me and gave me a weird look, i'll probably take a few seconds before actually snapping out of my thoughts and saying "huh?" ..

It's been a hectic weekend, i find it hard to believe that i actually did do the things and went to the places that i did, to be very honest. Being out of the state after being told only the night before and coming back after staying there for the night is but one of the spontaneous and no-way-out-of-it things that i actually went through in the past few days. And i thought that i could enjoy at least a few nights in my own bed, sleeping until the afternoon.. It's like craziness suddenly sprung out as soon as i came back from camp. I know that this weekend i disappointed a few people due to me not doing the job i was supposed to, and i'm sorry. I know i let down a few people because i wasn't there when they expected me to. I'm sorry for that too.

A little thing i heard from my big Daddy up there (if you aren't familiar with this name i use, i'm referring to God.) when i was in camp was a little thing that actually tugged at my heart strings alot. I was unsure of what i was really there for, about how He could use me to make a difference, why He put me in the Camp Committee in the first place, why he gave me all sorts of responsibilities all of a sudden. Felt like i was doing so many things and missing out on the most important thing. Thought too much about other people's problems instead of using this opportunity to uncover the message He had in store for me in camp. So, went up for prayer and then came a little voice that told me "Hey, you're not Superwoman. You already know that you can't do this, you can't make their ears and hearts open, but I can. Trust me, that's all you really have to do.".. Call me an emo person if you must, but i cried. Cried and just sat in the corner, watching other people. And thinking. How true it was, that i'm really no Superwoman. That i have no divine powers that can make a big difference. Yes, i have gifts and talents, but instead of committing my efforts and energy up to Him, i was trying to use my talents He gave me for His work, but with my own strength. It's like attaching a triple A battery to a flood light the size of a tool box. Purely incompatible. So yes, i've realised. And admit that i am no superwoman, but i have a big God who is bigger than and imaginable superhero.

Will therefore begin my transformation from depending too much on my own strength into being a F.R.O.G-er. (Forever Relying On God) ... Starting point? Going to bed. Tomorrow's a new day with plenty plenty plenty to do. But i believe that by trusting Him, things are always easier, ways are provided, and indeed, though i may not be the lady in the blue-red-yellow lycra suit who can emit lasers from her eyes (or something like that), with Him around, i can certainly make a superhuman difference in my life, and the lives of those around me.

Love this song because it speaks of how everyone can be tired. How people can feel like hiding in their own corner, avoiding everyone and everything else. Shutting out. How any homosapien can be in a rut, feeling the lowest of their lows. Finding that life has suddenly taken a turn to become difficult when things were going smoothly just yesterday. How uncertain life itself can be, how even we can question our own direction and purpose. And yet when he hits the chorus, it suddenly feels like hope. That as long as you take that one step to trying, though sometimes that step makes us stumble, we're going somewhere. And its on the road to better-ness.

"There is never failure until you stop trying."

"These Walls" , Teddy Geiger.
I can't believe what is in front of me
The water's rising up to my knees
And I can't figure out
How the hell I wound up here
Everything seemed okay when I started out the other day
Then the rain came pouring down
And now I'm drowning in my fears
And as I watch the setting sun
I wonder if I'm the only one

[Chorus]
Cause everybody tries to put some love on the line
And everybody feels a broken heart sometimes
And even when I'm scared I have to try to fly
Sometimes I fall
But I've seen it done before
I gotta step outside these walls

I've got no master plan to help me out
Or make me stand up for
All the things that I really want
You had me too afraid to ask
And as I look ahead of me
I cry and pray for sanity

[Chorus]

These walls can't be my haven
These walls can't keep me safe here
And now I guess I gotta let them down

Cause everybody tries to put some love on the line
And everybody feels a broken heart sometimes, yeah
Even when I'm scared I have to try to fly
Sometimes I fall
But I've seen it done before

I got to break out...
I got to break out...
I got to step outside these walls
Love outside these walls
I feel my heart breaking
But its a brand new day
I'm going down
I'm stepping out
I'm stepping outside
These walls
(I've seen it done before.. I'm walking on, I'll walk it off, oh I'm moving on)

*Yawn*
It's late and i should've hit the sack ages ago. Will go now, then.
Nitey nite, lovelies.

Hugs and smiles,
~LynNie

.|.Layers Tag.|.

Date: 9th December 2006 [The day before CAMP!!!!!!!!!]
Music: Fergalicious, Fergie [Under usual circumstances, i wouldn't listen tot his song as i think its a bit sesat, but i'm high today, i'm guess...]
Mood: Like i said, high.

Okay... why am i high? Because today is probably the best day of my life. Because i got to play golf!!! Okay.. DAD actually took us, the family, to Carey Island to play golf. Don't misunderstand me, but i'm not used to daddy being so... nice. Usually he plays with his friends instead of us, probably becasue he would get high blood pressure from playing with noobs like me.. xD Even more surprisingly, when i was worrying that i wouldn't be back in time for Youth [which starts at 4], he actually said "Don't worry, we'll be back in time for you to go for your Youth.".. AND, despite the fact that my first 3 out of the 16 holes were T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E, he didn't go all grumpy. Seriously, i was surprised. Then after that, had a totally fabulous lunch at some seafood place. Even was only slightly late for Youth, and many many camp shirts were given out, making the load lighter. Eunice was here, Jess has settled her Banquet Night outfit, i have a slight inkling of what i'm going to wear. Also, GE is baaaaaccckkkkk!!!!! So yes, today was a good day. Oh, and this happened just now, which was absolutely eye-tearingly-laughable...

Mum: *holding toothbrush, turning tap head in confused manner* Ehhh, why is there no water??
Han: Huh ?? *walks into bathroom*
Lyn: Oh no... not a water cut... *joins them in bathroom*
Mum: *turns tap back and forth, back and forth, back and forth...*
Lyn: Haaaaahhhhhhh??!!
Han: GET OUT, IT'S GONNA BLOW!!!!! *pushes us out of the bathroom and slams the door shut*
Mum & Lyn : *Look at each other, utterly confused*
Mum: *knocks on door* Weiiiiiii, wat are you doing?
*the sound of rushing water is heard*
Han : *throws door open*
Mum & Lyn: *Look into bathroom*
Han: *Has water in his cupped hands, the tap running behind him* Look, Ma!!! water!!!! WATER!!!!!! WATERRRRR!!!!!! *by now, he's laughing maniacally*

xD

As it turned out, he turned off the main knob earlier that day because there was a leak in the main filter downstairs... But the fact that he came up with something like that so spontaneously is pretty amazing...
