Proud to be, NJCHOIR(: Year2s: minus Eunice2 and DianFeng(who were busy changing out of their costumes), Wanyun and caleb (who were at VCH awaiting the results)

my fellow seniors, we've been through so much together, it feels like we've weathered quite a few wars together...and i'm sure we came out of it stronger!

NJCHOIR2009

Pre-SYF: at the LT5 stage. the place where we sweat(okay, eunice 2 says must say perspire) our life out.

now it's back to the books(:

today's MOTHER's day(:

happy mother's day(: my mum's entertaining herself by watching old videos on youtube....

haha. honestly, their music are quite good...

haha(:

so since she's distracted, i shall just thank her in these few paltry lines that may not be able to convey my heartfelt gratitude to her...

For waking up at 5 every morning just cause we have to, I love you mum

For cooking lunch even when i don't go home for it, I love you mum

For cooking dinner and keeping it warm when i reach home at 5, I love you mum

For buying me new clothes even when I don't need them, I love you mum

For grumbling and nagging about things you don't want me to do but allowing me to do so in the end cos you know how much i want it, I love you mum

For being my mum and loving me unconditionally, I love you mum

Happy mother's day

had a good mother's day message today in church... by this really sweet lady, though i'm not really sure where she's from! she talked about Jesus being the good shepherd, and how parents are their children's shepherds as well... though i'm not a parent yet (DUH). but i hope to be one someday! and i hope i will remember all these lessons and be the best mum i can be(: oh, and she played this song during the message, i think it's really meaningful, cos unconditional love is love that does not call for payment.

i guess we should do things not for the rewards, but cos we truly love(:

NO CHARGE

Now our little boy came up to his mom

In the kitchen this evenin' while she was fixin' supper

And he handed her a piece of paper he'd been writin' on

And after wipin' her hands on her apron

She read it, and this is what it said.

For mowin' the lawn, five dollars

For makin' my own bed this week, one dollar

And for goin' to the store, fifty cents

An' playin' with little brother while you went shoppin', twenty-five cents.

Takin' out the trash, one dollar

Gettin' a good report card, five dollars

And for rakin' the yard, two dollars

Total owed, fourteen seventy-five.

Well, as mom looked at him standin' there expectantly

And I could see the mem'ries flashing through her mind

And so she picked up the pen, and turnin' the paper over

This is what she wrote.

For the nine months I carried you growin' inside me, no charge

For the nights I've sat up with you

Doctored you, and prayed for you, no charge

For the time and the tears

That you've cost through the years, there's no charge

And when you add it all up

The full cost of my love is no charge.

For the nights filled with dread

And all the worries ahead, no charge

For advice and the knowledge

And the cost of your college, no charge

For the toys, food and clothes and even for wipin' your nose

There's no charge, son

And when you add it all up

The full cost of my love is, no charge.

Well, when he finished readin'

He had great big old tears in his eyes

And he looked up at her standing there and saidMama, I sure do love you

Then he took the pen,And in great big letters

He wrote PAID IN FULL.

Lord knows when you add it all upThe cost of real love is, no charge...

eunice is feeling contented(:

just like a burden's rolled off her back!

praise God, my burden's rolled away at the cross(:

but. i miss choir(:
