I really love You!!!

my dear joy... thanks for ur encouragement.
never think that ur encouragement for me is nothing.
you never know, maybe ur encouragement can changed my life or other thing?
hahasSs....

Amy... thanks for ur words!!
really very touched...
I believe that, God send you to tell me all this!!
I will rem in my heart what u had says to me...

This is what amy says to me.
Hope its oso will encourage you~ =)

If there is one person that loves you the most in the world.
It is not ur friends, ur bf/gf, ur cousin, aunts, ur church members or ur parents.
Its is God!!

and its through this people that He ministers his love sometimes...
and if this people let you down just know that God's still in touch with ur life.
there is no one like Him and there will never be.

People may give up on you and say so many stuff and make u feel down.
but God will never let you go no matter how far you want to run.
He is like the wind that will blow through the eagles just to get a hold of your hand that ran away from him.

after all He chose you.
not you chose him.
do not despise urself when God heart is still beating beat after beat for ur love back to his heart.

and no matter how far you run.
He is still in touch.

dont feel like u are not better than anyone.
the reason he placed u is because he sees himself with you in it.
so dun try to do things your way.
ask him to partner with u and make ur work for him speak in his name all in all.

i believe that’s what God wants to tell you today.
So keep it in your heart and never fly it away.

Jesus loves you better, bigger and forever.
ur friends are just his instruments they are not your life givers.
and you are beautiful the way you are.

dont feel ugly.
you are beautiful the way you are.
you have a gentleness of his touch.
so do not despise!

Jesus knows you even before you came to baby
He marked you and chose you even before you saw him
would God let you go just like that because you feel you are not good enough to serve his call?

if you allow him, he can use you into something even bigger than ur mind can comprehend.
it just take you to be willing to make his kingdom be known.
that's what its all about "Lifting Jesus name on high".

if you ask,
He will even anoint that lips of yours.
Nothing is impossible with God.

sing you shall sing.
touch you shall touch.
dance you shall dance.
just ask and according to his perfect will.
He will give his heart for you and place you in places to be formed into his beautiful light

do not despise!!

you never know what is in your savior’s heart until you search it deep enough.
Better in one day in his house than an thousand else where.

Do not forget his touch!
Do not forget your first times with the Lord!
those are precious thoughts.
God is alive!!
He is not just a passer by...

//*luv ya.luv me.luv urself.luv ur enemy.luv parent.luv friends.luv god & he luv ya too*//

mY goSh!

i rather die.
even he's the last men on the earth.
i wont accept him. *bhb* (as he accept me like that.)
hahaSs...
he's only a good friend to me bahz....

*Pls dont say... dennis and me again!!

says it once again.... from now on....
i never ever will fall in love with a own chruch guy anymore.
if there's a will then it will....

~God will choose the best for me ya~
HahasSs....

I love you?

boy.......
so many years and days has past.
i thought i had forget you.
i wish i can.
but i just cant.
the love that i have for you is so deep.
deep until i hate myself.
why cant i just let go?
why cant i just forget you and go love someone else?
you are the only one i loved so deeply and madly.
no other guy can compare to you.
to me, you are perfect.

boy......
rejected by you.
i'm so hurts.
although its had past.
but i'm still hurts.
time will heal?
time will change?
how much i wish you can accept me.
how much i wish i can be there for you when you are down.
no matter how much i wish.
it will never come true.

boy......
no matter how sad i am.
i will never let you see.
instead i will acting happy in front of you.

boy.....
am i stupid?
knowing that you likes that gal.
but still willing to encourage you to go for that gal.
and oso help you to win that gal heart.

when you sad,
i will be sad too.
when you happy,
i will be happy too.

*\\.ai de tong le.tong de ku le.//*
*\\.bei ai shi xin fu de.qu ai shi tong ku de.//*

i hate smiling to show that i'm ok.
i hate giggling to show that i'm not hurt.
i hate laughing after crying.
i still love you.
but i have to say goodbye.

a sad thing in life.
is when you meet someone who mean a lot to you.
only to find out that.
it was never mean to be.
and you just have to let it go.


never look back, we said.
how was i to know i'd miss you so?
loneliness up ahead,
emptiness behind.
where do i go?

and you didnt hear.
all my joy through my tears.
all my hopes through my fears.
did you now,
sill i miss you somehow.

from the broken of my broken heart.
there's just a thing or two i like you to know.
you were my first love,
you were my true love.
from the first kisses to the very last rose.

from the bottom of my broken heart.
even though time may find me somebody new.
you were my real love,
i never knew love.
tile there was you.
from the bottom of my broken heart.

Never look into my eyes
If you are telling me a lie

Never say hello

Never say that I'm THE one
If you dream of more than me

Never lock up my heart
If you don't have the key

Micael Learns To Rock- Paint My Love

Paint My Love

(Jascha Richter)

From my youngest years
till this moment here
I've never seen
such a lovely queen

From the skies above
to the deepest love
I've never felt
crazy like this before

Chorus:
Paint my love
you should paint my love
it's the picture of a thousand sunsets
it's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby you should paint my love

Been around the world
then I met you girl
It's like comming home
to a place I've known

Chorus:
Paint my love
you should paint my love
it's the picture of a thousand sunsets
it's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby you should paint my love

Since you came into my life
the days before all fade to black and white
Since you came into my life
Everything has changed

So bored

Help!!! I'm so bored staying at home.......... Must study!! But I don't really study sia. Lazy. heex. I want to go out... Prelim very very near le... 8 days toward prelim.... My gosh...
