ha okie although i dun really drink coke.but i find this commercial is quite nice.
'06 has ended. looking back truly quite alot had happen during this span of time. mistakes had been made, new friendships forged, been to new countries, commissioned,
being put through ocs was a lifetime experience, you'll do things you never thought possible, "welcome to hell" was e greeting sentence by the ic when i enquired about the wing i as going to. "i would not apologize for the tough but shiok training" was e fav line by my wing com. 3mths of pure crazy stuffs.. you guys rocks! *salute
6 mths of mental stress(arty all about brains)simply love you guys. haha all e crappy time we had together. places we've been. had lots of fun along e way
time we had at e parade sq. the moti talks by neo s.t. ga..
standing on that parade sq that day comes a mixed feeling. proud to wear that one single bar yet feels e burden to shoulder the task that's about to come to us.
as someone use to ask "what makes you so special?"(a 2hr dialoge session in lecture rm if you guys remember)
no longer we're ordered ard. but now we get pushed ard.
no longer we wait for things to happen now we make things happen.
so a large portion of this year is spent in OCS.
--ABOVE, BEYOND, AS ONE--
Posted to new unit.
there's 3 things man can't live without
one of it is faith
to my cell: you guys are simply wonderful.
to my buddy szeyin: thanks for being there and that tons of nagging.
Had a countdown with my cell grp.Gonna miss them all e time we had together was crazy.love you guys lots!
'07 it'll be great.
Everything may happen. -Omnio fieri possent….-

Indescribable
by Chris Tomlin
From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Incomparable, Unchangeable,
You see the depths of my heart and you love me the same.
You are amazing God

It's You
Wake up every morning
And find you by my side
There's no one in this world
Like you Jesus
Who can touch a heart like mine
Suddenly it's over
All the cries that's
In my heart
It all seems B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L
All consuming by your grace
I may not sing as well as Clay or Ruben
I may not be the cutest guy
I may not look like Leonardo Dicaprio
But I do know one thing ..
It's you who make me stronger
I need you more than ever
You're the reason why I'm singing for you
It's you who create the wonders
In all my days of struggles
It's your love that surrounds my whole world
Sometimes I cry when I'm lonely
When it all just seems so real
But there's one thing that I can't deny
Is your love that's in my life
Wake up every morning
And find you by my side
There's no one in this world
Like you Jesus
Who can touch a heart like mine
Suddenly it's over
All the cries that's
In my heart
It all seems B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L

Excellence Is The Key That Unlocks The Door Of Favor.
Proverbs 22:29
“Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; he will
not stand before unknown men.” (NKJV)
Promotion is something all of us desire. But why is it that very few ever move
up to a higher level in life? Why do so many individuals stay the same as the
day we first meet them? The above passage states, “A man who excels in his
work will stand before kings; he will not stand before unknown men.” Promotion
does not come just because we want it. It requires us to go above and beyond
what is asked of us. Whether in marriage, at work, or serving in God’s church,
walking in excellence is the key to promotion.
The Bible tells us, “Jesus grew in wisdom and favor with both God and man.” As
we grow in favor with both God and man, it causes us to rise to the level of
promotion God has for us. How can we grow in favor? By respectfully doing
whatever is required of us. We can become the tool that is used to solve any
problem in life. Maintaining a great attitude, respecting, and honoring those
we are assigned to serve is vital to attracting favor. As we consistently live a
life of respect and honor towards those above us and around us, we will see a
rapid increase of favor. Experiencing the true and lasting promotion God has
for us is linked to our ability to cultivate the ingredients of excellence and
favor, God’s promotion twins.
another boring day in camp.. haha
miss out the pre-flight lunch prepared by jerome =( darn and they said it was good! argh!!
