Wake Up Little Sleeper

How appropriate, 5 months without a post and then this title!

I thought I’d share this alarm clock tone for those technically advanced like me, with phones that can play mp3s! I got mine this year! You got yours when? 5 years ago? Cool, join the technically advance club!

I heard this song, Sacred, by Caedmon’s Call (CC) and fell in love with the sweetness of it. A godly mother/wife. The part I am using for my ringtone is the bridge of Sacred, where Danielle Young sings to the tune of the hymn, Holy, Holy, Holy.

The lyrics go like this:

Wake up, little sleeper
The Lord, God Almighty
Made your Mama keeper
So rise and shine, rise and shine
Rise and shine cause

All those who are technologically advanced can add this to your technologically advanced mobile phone.

-edit-

If you think that it’s too quiet for an alarm. It was so loud on my technologically advanced phone that it woke me up on the first beat! HA! Although, that may be because I’m a lite-sleeper.

I also want to take this chance to dedicate the song to my dearest auntie Ros in Sydney! Go godly mummy!

A head/heart-ache that won’t go away.

Try to drown it out with HC/Metal. Drive it out God, please.

Lyrics for a new song?:
Just because he says he loves you means he does
Just because he kisses you doesn’t mean anything
She too.

From the moleskine:
23 Jan
My fingers have been trained to key your number everytime.
I want someone who loves life.

Silence silence…

Today
Boys can also be played.
She always said, “I am reapding what I sowed”, and she tells me the same is happening for me.

The first time in months my fing e r s did not press that sequence of n u m b ers in a full day.

My mind however was not spared.

Imagine an ugly stick figure and the caption, “So I hold an eraser over my heart, and erase with all my strength”

What I worked to hard to build, all built on sand. Even if I didn’t want to destroy it, it’d fall apart anyway.

Tomorrow, I mean like, Monday:
I ask you if I will see you..
Message may have not been sent because a timeout occurred:
So I ask again
Message may have not been sent because a timeout occurred:
You disconnected.

No fate. Sibeh suay.

My Accent

06.02.08

Just added this to my about page, hehe.

Kris, a friend of mine commented that my accent was inconsistent in this song and this is what I told him. I said, “I am a Singaporean raised in an former British colony, taught British English, fed American media since I was young, and I now study in Australia!” How to have consistent English accent leh?

An afterthought(s) on Post #93:

The thoughts that were going through my head when I saw that situation was, “Why does Ah-mah at 60-years-old have to work till this unearthly hour?”

Kevin and I were on our way back home most probably from hanging out with friends or partying (on a Tuesday night?!). The point is we were having fun and Ah-mah was probably working because she has to support herself.

Ah-mah’s old already, cannot even get onto the sidewalk properly. Ah-mah’s children, what are you doing?

This reminds me of something Jack (a very dear brother) told me. I was asking him if he was going to Switchfoot’s gig. He said no. I asked him if he wasn’t a big fan. He said yes but he couldn’t pay $90 for his own leisure while people elsewhere are suffering. Although I didn’t really understand what he meant, I am starting to see what he means..

I shared Ah-mah’s story with Joey and he encouraged me saying that I will do better next time, and I can only hope so! Let me not forget that it is by God’s grace that we are enabled to do good deeds and it is because of his grace that we must do good deeds, not for our own glory but for his glory, not by our own strength but by his grace.

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. – 1 Corinthians 15:10

I sang myself to sleep last night
I sang a hymn and a song
The Lord, my unfailing love

I gave my all
My time, strength, heart, money
Giving it to the wrong place perhaps
I cannot be selfless, I wish I could
It is more blessed to give than receive?
Glad that’s true
