haha...finally got a blog...how cool is that. i guess i just been living in the social backwaters for too long that all this is suddenly so exciting for me. haha..as my first post i guess i will be crazy. I'll kinda rant and all but hey, i'm new so forgive me..(like i care what you think...haha)
This few days have been quite enlightening. Been like taking really long walks and thinking abt stuff. For a large part of the year my life has revolved round choir and i guess it has really affected my life adversely. I havent got much time to spend with my classmates and my work has suffered significantly. but i guess you win some and you lose some. i have been thinking abt this idea i have always had in my mind since i became the SC. it is to make music for the love of it and our goal as a choir should be geared towards making the best music possible and not to getting the best results. this is something that has been hotly disputed by many ppl. Some think it is not practical..too idealistic. but the thing is, who are you to say things are too idealistic. If i told you 100 yrs ago that there will be a communication web connecting the world you would have laughed at me and called me too naive. BUt hey, look where we are now. Haha...
Enough of choir lah, anyway been doing some thinking on the type of friends i make. Funny though, i realised that all my best friends have all become like second bananas, flunkies and all. funny how things work. Been feeling quite bad abt it anyway. But i guess someone has to take the lead..still...i will work towards changing myself.
GOd...the unknown entity we call heavenly father. i have to say god has done miracles in my life this year. i think the song you raise me up most aptly describes the help he has given me.
" When i am down and oh my soul so weary,
when trouble comes and my heart burdened be
when i am still and wait here in the silence,
until you come and sit awhile with me."
really thankful to him and all. i guess many christians in this world dont really thank god enough for the good times but when obstacles appear, they start blaming god and all saying how he has not helped them. i think that god has his own ways and sometimes we should give him abit more credit and of course follow in his ways. One such way i think is to go to church, praise him and have fellowship with him..not always easy but hey, its worth it.
Finally, how can i miss out the greatest spectacle on planet earth? the world cup. i supported holland but haiz...they are out. Oh well, they are a young team and much to learn they have, in time they will be a force to reckon with and who knows..maybe world champs one day. tonight is Eng Vs Port, should be a good match but i'm rooting for portugal, England reeks...big time..they cant pass the ball well, they cant score goals,they cant create chances...oh well just proves my point that they are a horrible team. Brazil havent been firing on all cylinders but i still fancy them to squeeze past france..hehe...
The really final word, as i have said before, confidence is the key to the future and like it or not we all have to move on with our lives....hehe....but at least god will be there always....
un dieu benissent toujours
may god bless you always..
