Built To Last

Melee - Built To Last

I've looked for love in stranger places,

but never found someone like you.

Someone whose smile makes me feel I've been holding back,

and now there's nothing I can't do.

'Cause this is real, and this is good.

It warms the inside just like it should,

but most of all it's built to last.

All of our friends saw from the start.

So why didn't we believe it too?

Whoa yeah, now look where we are.

You're in my heart now.

And there's no escaping it for you.

'Cause this is real, and this is good.

It warms the inside just like it should,

but most of all it's built to last.

Walking on the hills that night with those fireworks and candlelight

You and I were made to get love right

'Cause this is real, and this is good.

It warms the inside just like it should,

but most of all it's built to last.

'Cause you are the sun in my universe,

considered the best when we've felt the worst

and most of all it's built to last.

My Awesome Girl!

Kung Fu Fighting

Something I turned up while clearing my cupboard haha. Cute right? lol.

The Mail Scare

I was commenting to matt yesterday that the gahmen wouldnt bother to call me up for reservist cause they've just got too many clerks. Today I got a rude shock and I thought my day of reckoning had arrived. So with trepidation I tore open the perforated sides, anticipating the worst.

Lo and behold, it was just a reminder to notify mindef when i leave the country cause I didnt do it for my Malaysia trip. So I'm still on the holding list and very much relieved. False alarm haha.

Finally Here!

So happy when I got back from lunch with Matt to find my shipment of books here at last. Jolly expensive buy, but well knowledge is priceless aint it. Bought 2 books by mistake and tt ost me 75 sing man argh, prob find someone to unload. Oil Gas Production anyone? lol.

The Land of Half Price

Back from The Land of Half Price and it was a really enjoyable trip with the guys. Learnt alot about myself and I had a good time just bonding with em. We were eating like mad in the cities and doing crazy stuff like trekking and jumping of the jetty on the island. Here are my 7000 words.















Oh and not forgetting I skinned my head for RM6 as well LOL.

Almost New Speakers

Today I set up the Creative T20 speakers my uncle gave me. Was looking forward to to a new aural experience as I'm finding my current speakers somewhat muddy. Alas when it was all set up there was a hiss emanating from the left speaker. What made it worse was that the speakers sounded sooooo good haha. Music was so crisp and clear. Wasted man. Oh well, so I just plugged it out and settled for my old trusty speakers.

Sorry if anyone read this and thought it would be some interesting post only to realise it's just me whining on my speakers haha.

This season is pretty slow, not dry tho. Learning to explore the depths of my thirsty heart and to pursue God for the ultimate source of satisfaction and pleasure, that my appetite for pleasure might be raised to new heights, such that the lesser and corrupted pleasures will hold me no longer.

Amazed

I am amazed even in this period of dryness that you would still put the words on my lips that could reach and soothe the deepest part of the soul. I stand amazed at your love and power.

The Means to the End

Through this season of dryness when God seems far away and prayer and reading the Word seem so burdensome, I've realised that the primary goal in life is really knowing God; having that deep personal relationship with Him that transcends emotions and circumstances. To really "ah-ka-liao" with Him, that even if He seems silent I'll know wats on His heart or to obey Him faithfully when everything else within me seeks to rebel. 

Life really isn't about doing QT, ministry, cell, per se and all these can turn into a performance which we excel so well at. These are but means to the end. I've kinda focused on making sure I check these boxes off in my sojourn in the desert that I've missed the point- that it really isn't about doing all these, but seeking Him out (or Him seeking us).

It's indeed liberating.
