God is my Everything

God is my Everything
*quoted from Eliss blog*

I am very taken by this song by Tim Hughes. My worship leader Jezro likens this song to a love song you sing to God. I concur that very much. The lyrics are so simple but yet describes exactly how I feel about God.

GOD IN MY LIVING
THERE IN MY BREATHING
GOD IN MY WAKING
GOD IN MY SLEEPING

GOD IN MY RESTING
THERE IN MY WORKING

GOD IN MY THINKING
GOD IN MY SPEAKING

CHORUS:
BE MY EVERYTHING
BE MY EVERYTHING
BE MY EVERYTHING
BE MY EVERYTHING

GOD IN MY HOPING
THERE IN MY DREAMING
GOD IN MY WATCHING
GOD IN MY WAITING

GOD IN MY LAUGHING
THERE IN MY WEEPING
GOD IN MY HURTING
GOD IN MY HEALING

BRIDGE:
CHRIST IN ME
CHRIST IN ME
CHRIST IN ME
THE HOPE OF GLORY
YOU ARE EVERYTHING

CHRIST IN ME
CHRIST IN ME
CHRIST IN ME
THE HOPE OF GLORY
BE MY EVERYTHING

Wah....after hearing this song, you can cry one loh.Dunno where you can illegally download this song, but you can see and hear this song ala acapella style on you-tube:

Good Morning!

wow I can't believed it's only 5am in the mornng and I am fully awake. Well, of cause I wish I were sleeping right now but the problem is I can't sleep. No matter how I told myself repeatedly that I'm tired, I need rest, I want to sleep.... My mind keeps running about - idlely... this is bad, terrible. An idle mind is a dangerous field. So instead of letting my mind wondering away, I should make full use of this time span. Let's blog.

Had Jim Gary for dinner or I should say supper last night with Gareth, Steff, Terence, Siti, Samantha, James, Jiti and Rachel. The reason I say it's dinner going to be supper is because by the time we leave the office, it's already already 7.30pm. Terence was good enough to pick Gareth, Steff and myself up at Springleaf. As usual, we went to vivo city as the 1st batch, our mission is to take the Queue and chop a table. Surprisingly, there wasn't any queue, yet there isn't any table that can accommodate the 9 of us. The waiter namely Raymond was kind to offer me a seat during the time of the wait.

The 4 of us were starving liket crazing, this time I can really eat a cow. It's half past 8 and there ain't any sign of the rest. We ended with no choice but to order some Fa Lan Xi Duo Si aka French Toast but I called in Sai Tou Xi (that's the cantonese name which Terence kept debetting that it's just called French Toast, to prove him wrong, I read out the item name in cantonese from the chinese wordings).

I would give a 7/10 for it because it was served in the correct temperature and the peanut butter is just nice, the only negative part was they gave too much butter and they didn't provide the honey or whatever they call it. Nah~ other than that it's quite nice, especially when Gareth had cut it into smaller bite size making it easy for us to kop.

It's almost 9, still there ain't no sign of the rest... we had to order our food first else we would die out of hunger. I ordered a Pork Chop with black pepper sauce meal which cost me $12.90. It was served together with brosch or cream soup, garlic bread and a drink. Yin Yong ICE! This definately tasted better than their famous Hong Kong Milk Tea, gosh! Steff ordered their new dish-stone grilled unagi rice. Gareth had a lamb chop and Terence ordered a combo, boy he must be very hungry...

The rest of the folks finally strolled in some time when our food was being served. Not going into details on the food they ordered. Sometimes, it's really the company that matters. It's a rare occussion that I would join them for an event like this. Most of the time, I would be needed to rush back to visit Janine or to prepare dinner for my dad. So my out-of-office hours are very precious. Almost didn't make it this time because I almost left at 630pm when I was so so hungry, luckily Gareth when SHELL station to grab some snacks. Gee~

We left the place at about 10+ took a cab home together with Siti. Reached home at about 11pm. Wy wasn't feeling well, he had a running nose. Boiled some balley last night it should be ready by now. Will tabao one bottle for him and myself later. Boiled Chinese Tea for him too... it's so nice to have a cup of hot tea when you are having flu. Watch sccocer with him till past mid-night, and I thought I should be tired but till now I am not feeling sleepy, not even a bit....maybe it due to the YinYong I drank last night? Hmm.. think of it, this might be the reason...

Enough said. I think I better catch some rest before I turned myself into a zombie tomorrow at work... Tata~

Farewell Jen!

supposed to send Jen off today but I overslept. supposed to meet the rest at 8am at T2 but I woke up at 6.30am. Haiz... need to cook for my dad somemore by the time I leave home, I think I can only reach at 845am... which she already checked in. SAD* Gareth called me at 825am they just reached... MORE SAD* should have rush to Airport...

Didnt sleep well last night, running nose + backache. then this wy kept turning and tossing till both of us can't sleep, went to Janine's room and slept at 5am so cold, no blanket.... suppossed to wake up at 6am. but I overslept.... argh.

Sometimes I wish my dad wasn't staying with us for the moment. I felt like a maid, wake up early to cook then he still complaint this and that. Spolit my toilet door and my tap... haiz... I asked wy if he is ok, there is nothing he can say because he is my dad. Sometimes I pity wy.

I know I should not complaint my dad but sometimes I really feel like scolding him. He woke up early than I do this morning but instead of boiling water for coffee he went back to sleep knowing that I haven't wake up. Expecting me to do all these. He opened a can of canned food but put back into the cupboard, so when I took it out it spilled the entire kitchen... while I need to rush off to work. I knew I should not take it to heart moreover he is my dad but I really need to vent this off my chest.

I'm going to cater food for him starting Dec, I can't take it anymore. Please MSN me any cater contact you have. Thanks in advance!
Last night I was asking wy if he wanna name our son (self proclaiming) Jie En or Jun En. He perfer Jie En because it sound closer to his English name Jadon. He was laughing because he can't believed I can choose a name so close to Janine's.
Janine + Jadon / Jia En + Jie En...

Make things more interesting, Janine was born on 12th June. Jadon's EDD is 19th June. Wy was saying maybe he will pop on 14 June, then the 3rd kid on 16 June, then my birthday 18th June, 4th kid either 10th June or 20th June.... whahaha...
then I replied ... oh if that is the case we should named Jadon as Jian En... then 3rd kid Chen En and 4th kid Chu En.... he asked me why..... hahahhaha because I can call them Jia Jian Chen Chu in one shot.... (+ - x / )
whahahhaha..... stylo right!

Finally an Update!


sorry to keep you guys waiting. was away for 2 days mc. too busy yesterday when i was back to work. reached home and zzz at 8pm didnt manage to wake up to blog haha.

ok this is what had happened. we met with an accident last sunday evening. it was about 10pm. along PIE right after steven rd's exit. the road was wet due to the rainy season. there was a chain accident before that as we were notified via the EMAS system before hand. the chain was in the 1st lane, we were at 2nd lane, so wy had reduced his speed. right after the steven rd's exit, the camry before us stopped because they are moving the cars to the road shoulder. wy stopped too. unfortunately the airwave behind us did not stop judging from our rear mirror, wy knew the airwave is going to bang us. sure enough, it did. the impact was so great that we hit the car infront of us.

without a word, wy got out of the car, walked infront to check if the camry is alright. reconfirming with him that both of our cars were in stationary position before the airwave did its stun. yeah, Thank God. He reckon with us. his damages were just a few scratches but our bumpers dropped, boot gone, bonneth gone.... cuz we were sandwiched inbetween... Thank God there wasn't any injuries. i guessed the airwave driver was in shock because he friend came out of the car instead of him.

once the airwave driver walked out, the 1st question the camry uncle asked was, " Do you have a driving license?" gosh the airwave driver looked so young and he's only 22 yrs old. P plate driver.
ding dong ding dong, took everyone's particulars. the kid called his dad and his dad wished to settle this personally because this was his 2nd accident. WAT! and he did not want to affect his car insurance premium next year. NAH! too bad, it involved more than 2 cars, we dont wish the camry to claim our insurance which will affect our premium either, sorry but the 2 of us are claiming your insurance.

*till now, both wy and I were still suffering from neck, shoulder and back ache.

on monday, we spent the entire day at NUH A&E. paid $80 each for the A&E consultation which will go into the airwave's claim. wy needed an X-ray. whereas i went for a detailed scan to make sure the baby is foing fine.
luckily baby is fine. doc gave me 2 days mc, reminded me to rest more and go back once there's any unusual pain or discharge.

on tues, we went back again cuz wy cant sleep throughout the night due to the backache. went back to NUH as early as 8am to beat the crowd. thinking that will cost us another $80 bucks haiz... luckily we went back within 24hrs, no additional charges. Yeah! took another X-ray on his back to make sure his spinal cord is alright. Doc extended his mc till thursday, so shiok. luckily we can claim our mc too. but i heard the claim only come in 1yr time .... hmm....

that's shd be all... everything is well. baby is fine, most importantly.

Beauty of Maths!


Beauty of Maths!
1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321


1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111


9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888


Brilliant, isn't it ?
And look at this symmetry:
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234 321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321


Now, take a look at this ... 101%
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100% ?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100% ?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to GIVE OVER 100%.


How about ACHIEVING 101% ?
What equals 100% in life ?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:

If :
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

If :
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

And:
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But :
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%


THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%


Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Good Morning Singapore!

Woke up at 7am today! Felt guilty for not preparing wy's breakfast for the week. Told him I'm particularly tired this week, please allow me to sleep till 8am. Well, as good as he can be he fulfilled my request-resulting a good, undisturbed sleep for not only Tues, Wed but Thurs too.. Being Firday today, I thought I should wake up early to help him prepare breakfast, but he already did hehehe... so I accompany him and see him off to work.

Cooked my dad's meal. Cod Fish cum Porridge. Simple and easy yet nice and healthly.

Baby and Mummy doing well today. Oh! Yesterday my tummy had a lump pretrating out and it was accompained with a heartbeat. I guessed that's the baby in the waterbag. But again, I thought Im only at my 8th week, how come I can feel the movement so easily? Asked wy if he can feel it, he can too and he felt the bubble moving towards a counter direction.... wah! Amazing! This wy happily say it must due to my great amount of fats in my tummy to result this advantage.... cuz when I conceived Janine Im still slim, not much fat so cant really feel her.... duhz* I gave him a blank look. =P

Anyhow, I feel great today. Had a good rest though I played hard with Janine last night. Was thinking not to visit her cuz I was exhasted by work yesterday but nevertheless, the love for her kept me on-going. Whoo... that's the power of love I guessed.

Oh well, tummy aching again. Time to go... have a shower and off to work. Tata~

Back to work

after a long one week AL, im back to work again. had a great time learning through play with janine and meeting the soon new member at dr adrain's clinic. amazing. i cant believed im 8th preggy now. the whole week is fruitful both for myself, wy, janine and my dad... not forgetting my PIL too.

i took our sony ericsson phone for servicing. brought janine out and met some mummies here and there for lunchie. didnt cook much that week. too tired. PIL had their own time, finally a break for them since july.

i also forgot what did i do during the week. supposed to have time blogging, but once i opened the lappie, janine will stick her hands on my keypad. argh.

so let's see how's the baby doing...
Fetal development in pregnancy week 8:embryo in second month
"Woohoo! You've got one whole inch of baby inside of you! Your little embryo has finally reached the one-inch mark (30mm). And if it were possible to take a peek, you could actually see your tiny baby without a telescope! What’s more, your baby is finally starting to take on some very distinct human features. For starters, their little tail (really just the spinal cord) has disappeared completely. It’s nice to know your baby can no longer be mistaken for a sea creature! Additionally, both their toes and fingers are prominent with very little, if any, webbing. Upper and lower limbs all show recognizable joints (elbows and knees) and the lower limb bones are starting to ossify. But don’t expect your baby to resemble either parent quite yet. Right now, your baby’s head is disproportionately larger than the rest of their body--making up almost half of your little one’s height and weight! "

And how's mom doing?
"Your slightly-larger-than-a-cherry embryo is also starting to have a physical impact on you this week—and not just hormonally, as you may be noticing a slight bulge at your midline-- mostly from water retention. Most people won't even notice the subtle change to your belly's shape, but since you’re tuned in to every little change in your body, it hasn’t slipped past. Good news for the hormonally tortured: if you have been extra moody lately, that may start to subside this week, as the placenta is beginning to take responsibility for your baby’s hormone production. This means your body will soon be able to relax a bit from its over-production of hormones as the placenta starts to regulate your baby’s hormones-- allowing your body to focus on producing more normal levels of hormones for yourself (see Week 10).

over the weekend

felt like having fast food on friday. haha didnt bring any food from home. just nice debbie needs to bring some robinson vouchers to funan concept store tata~ there we go and had lunch there. KFC + Tacko Bell + Pizza Hut (3-in-1) fastfood outlet. ever drink 3-in-1 coffee mix? this is what you'll get there too. u can cross match what you want to eat. but i had the cheese meltz buddy meal with andie. yummy, but we felt they should have used better cheese hehehe...they only used cheese sauce yet not the idea cheese that fulfilled the naming of their cheese meltzzzzzz.... we rush back to work because jiti got lotsa things to do. i end off my day handling over my work to both gareth and jiti together with jen and andie (kaypoh~ing).

weekend was another tiring round. sat, slept till 10am went to giant to get next week's groceries. didnt buy much this time cuz dad wanted to eat something else.. prefered to have some simple meal like luncheon meat and sadrine fish.. went church. this week is b.f week... in the end we change the amt we wanted to pledge. it went back to the initial amt i got. weiyi first wrote that amt, which i thought hmm... this might be the correct amt because this was my first impression or the initial amt i had an impression on... of cuz i tired to be realistic and practical therefore the amt has been changed a couple of times, until it went back to what it should be. we believed in unequal amt equal sacrifice, so no matter what amt you've pledged. God see definately see your heart. i know He will never shortchange us, never once He did that and He never will. God-give us the power to get wealth.

sun, attended regan's full month party. most of them were there. bec together with andy and amber were there 1st. me wy janine + maine sam adel met early at CP to do some shopping we met up yeye gandon rinzen met up at the carpark too. yanling and ryan came by next. followed by jen and ah zheng. i left before i can see the rest because both janine and wy both tired... janine fell asleep right after we placed her in her carseat.... hahahha
