Ready to Die?

Die, as in, to leave the old you, and to expect for something new. Die, as in to kill and throw away your old spiritual and mental life, for something better to take over. Die, I'm ready to die, for a change in my life. That's my cry for this year's rally, other than the cry to see my friends finally coming for rally. Seriously, I just want them to come and experience God's presence during the rally. I'm gonna share next week. Gonna pray. Gonna kill myself for the better. Gonna pray.

Rehearsal was alright just now. Not like last year. Last year's was more organised. But one thing about this year's rehearsal is that, the timing was awesome for all participants and we had ample time for comments also. Praise and worship practice was alright. I enjoyed the fellowship I had with the team just now during dinner time. Love them. But I miss last year's team. Haha. I wanna play with last year's team once more.

Glory to God, glory to God for this awesome event. Glory to God, glory to God, for His wonderful people to me. Glory to God, glory to God, my duty to glorify God's name. Amen.

Stop Pumping!

Too much adrenalin hormone. Too excited >.< HAhaha.. Rally's like next week. Uh-oh... GO AWAY WORRIES!!! GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too much excitement... Haha..

Rehearsal is this Friday and I've yet to memorise the chords for them worship songs. Dam I'm lazy. hahah! Just printed out the copies of the worship song just now. Miss Cassandra (sp?) took all of my chords... Hahaha. I always return home from practice without chords at all. Hahaha! Glory to God for the talents He has given to me. He'll not regret.

For God I Will

For God I Will,
For God I Will,
I Will Die,
For God I Will;

For God I Will,
I Bow Down on my knees,
Worship His name,
For God I Will;

For God I Will.

Song not done yet. That's just the chorus.

And Oh yeah...

Remember the health problem I was posting about? About my heart beating fast eventhough I'm sleeping and stuff. I went to see the doctor just now and the doctor said that it was nothing serious. In fact, my heartbeat is normal. Whoa. Thank God.... Maybe it's my mind playing with me.. Haha.. Glory to God!

Glory to God

Posted this testimony in another forum. So I'm just gonna quote the whole post:

Firstly, I would like to thank God that my parents allowed me to play guitar for the praise and worship team for the Interschool Rally in Klang this year. Eventhough I'm a drummer but I still want to play guitar.. Always love to play music to my God.

I don't own an electric guitar so I borrowed guitars from friends. I'm gonna use three guitars for this rally, one drop D Tuning, one standard tuning, another is a semi-acoustic guitar. My friend brought this guitar to me and it has this special lock tuning thingy on guitars.. Some Flyod Rose thing. Haha.. We need to use a special key to unlock the strings only then we can retune the guitar. So yeah, I returned the guitar back to him and he tried to unlock it with the special key but the last lock can't be opened. So he brought to my house and showed me that the lock can't be unlocked. I saw the key and it was similar to those small black metal L shaped rods I have (it comes with my drumset and my double bass pedal, I have loads of it at home). So I tried mine and it opened! Thank God! Wheee...

Not only that. I'm supposed to use a guitar effect pedal for the rally. I asked the same person whether he can loan his to me. He said he can't on Sunday (yesterday) because somebody wanted to buy his pedal. When we were unlocking the locks just now in the afternoon at my house, the buyer text messaged him to put the deal on hold. So now I can use his pedal for the rally.. Woohooo! Thank God... Glory to God..

Funny how God works in everybody's life.

The friend is Mr. Joel Gan - Mad Bassist. And thank God for Poh Leong's guitar also. Thanks a lot guys!

Headache...

I'm having a terrible headache now. Why am I up and not asleep? Because I'm worrying too much. I'm worrying on whether I can get the skit team to come for rehearsal or not, I'm worrying whether the dance team has already mastered their steps or not, I'm worrying whether I'm gonna play well during the rally or not, I'm worrying on whether I can achieve academically or not. These worries, are confirmed the work of the devil. Jesus gives peace, but I'm not feeling the peace. I'm full of worries. I need prayer people. I really need it. And I had a short nap just now, I was actually wide awake the whole time with this really bad headache. I remembered I need to study, I was reminded that I need to get the sound effects for the skit, I suddenly remembered that I'm using three guitars for the rally, I was also reminded that I've one more video to shoot and edit. Sigh. I want these worries to go away. Go away... Go away... Devil Go Away... In Jesus' NAME. Go away.

Nothing much today. Had practice just now. I prefered Friday's practice. HAhaha... Well, glory to God.

Old Memories

Went for a dinner just now. Not sure whether it's Meta appreciation dinner or something like that, but being with them people who made Camp Meta such a memorable really brought back some awesome memories, not only working with them, but how God has knitted all of us and has strengthen our bond among each other. Seriously, this camp really united us different school students together. It might only be participated by four schools but seriously, we did a lot together. God has blessed us with awesome memories, even all those stressed up and depressed memories turned sweet after the camp. We realised that yeah, God has brought all of us together, for a reason. We didn't have much disagreements during the meetings, it was all awesome. Not only that, God really used us to organise these events (the camp and the aftershock rally) to just sow the seeds in them non-Christians life. And guess what? 12 people accepted the Lord. How wonderful is that? We succeeded! Glory to God! Now a number of us are in the ISCf committee, I hope that we'll continue to work together and yeap, also show people what has God done in us - to spread God's blessings. Eventhough we make mistakes along the way, it'll be worthied.

Speaking about rally, I'm supposed to practice the songs now. Haha.. Dam I'm lazy.. But it's fun playing the guitar. Glory to God... Amen.

Now This is What I Call a Succesful Band...

Bus Company. Awesome stuff. Continue to glorify God's name.

I'm still waiting for a metal career...

PUMPED UP!

Funny how God can make someone so excited about something. And to be honest.. I've been waiting for this feeling since last year... The excitement of rally!! This excitement is killing me.. Seriously.. I'm having hormone imbalance now.. I have too much of adrenalin hormones pumping in my body... My heart beats real fast all the time. Hahah.. I just can't wait for God's presence to just fall on that place on the 7th of July. Thank God for the new friends I've made through this year's ISCF Praise and Worship team. Seriously, without them, I wouldn't be this excited now... And to boost up them adrenalin hormones, I had my own prayer just now affliated with the prayer meeting the ISCF committees and serving people had just now in GRACE Assembly Klang... Darn, it was awesome I had fun playing.. It seriously brought my spiritual life to the next level.. Woohoo! Can't wait for rally..

Serving God is great thing. It's an honour to be able to glorify His name all the time.. It's also our duty to give Him all praise and worship, to exalt His name, that's our primary purpose in this world... That's why HE created this world. But serving the Lord doesn't mean that we can escape from our daily duty as a teenager, as a child to our parents... Jugling my time between serving and studying is the worst thing that I'm experiencing now.. But through God's help, I've finally started studying again! Woohoo! And yeah, I won't stop.. NEVER STOP!! Hahah! Well, glory to God... Can't wait for rally..

His Love to Us

Truth beats lies,
Light kills darkness,
Sacrificed,
To bring signs and wonders;

Truth beats lies,
Light kills darkness,
Powerful,
is God the Father.

Sent His Son,
To die for us [You and Me],
Held my sins,
All the greed;

Live to Die,
Life for Pain,
Grace to Save,
Salvation to all.

Close your eyes,
Let it die,
Lay down your life,
to God of might;

Kiss goodbye,
Death has fallen,
let Him dwell,
in your life.

Pre Rally Workshop

Went for yesterday's workshop half forced and half wanting to learn something new (not joking). Well, overall, thank God that I went for the workshop.. Haha.. YEap, learnt a lot of stuff there... I still don't get the finger finger thing... I missed the night rally though... Went for tuition half awake... Hahaha! Seriously, I was stonned... Ask Bernie, he thought I was going through some disease.. Hahaha... Well, I had fun learning something new.. But something that was not fun - when we reached the part where school CF members and committees were supposed to discuss among each other on targeted souls and whom we wanna keep in prayer so that they will experience God during the rally and finally recieve Him as their personal Saviour, I got nobody to discuss with, I was the only STAR student there... HAhaha.. My other committees left for tuiton earlier... Ish! Hahah... So yeah, I just filled names that I wanna see get saved.. I left 6 blanks because those blanks are for the other committees to fill... Can't read their mind.. Haha...

Was supposed to go watch Pirates last night... But dad was sleepy.. Haha.. Hope I can finally watch it tonight.. Ish!

Yeap...

It's up =P... The second video...



Glory to the GREAT I AM!!

Skit

Had the first ISCF Rally skit today. I explained everything till my lungs were freaking out of breath and my mouth was freaking dry. Haha... A lot to explain and a lot to teach but yeah, I love all of them people who's in this skit. Great to know them. Easy to work also (the skit is easy.. hahah). Well, I'm gonna pray for them that they will remember their lines and what to do.. Haha. The skit is short and sweet (according to me) and I enjoy it.. Muahaha! Anyways, that's all for today.. Nothing much to blog about.

Oh yeah, Kenneth and I finished the second video for ISCF rally. It won't be on the internet. Muahaha! Wanna see it? Go attend tomorrow's Pre Rally at night. Muahaha!

God bless you people. Glory to Him!

*cry*

Nothing to talk about.. Just that I went to see the doctor just now about the small growth on my left hand.. Thank GOD that it's just a small swell only.. You don't know what I was going in my mind.. I thought it was cancer and stuff and my hand is needed to be chopped off or something.. Hahah! Thank God that it's only a swell.. And now I'm taking pain killers to relieve the pain (yeap, it's pain) and doctor said don't touch it... Gonna finish studying Salts later and then gonna revise add maths...

I forget very fast... I just went for camp for three days.. And I can forget what I've revised before camp.. Sigh...

Not sure whether I'm going for futsal tomorrow with friends or not.. Maybe I'll go there and exercise.. Hahah!

Glory to God.. Amen..

New Additions..

Yeap, dad agreed to buy cymbals for me. Wheee. Glory to God!


This is a 17" Z Custom Rock Crash. I confirm buying this edi, if I get a darn good price..


This is a 18" Oriental China Thrash. Not sure whether I'm buying this. I asked for the price and see whether that this and the other cymbal is within my budget.. Then I'll buy this. If too expensive, then I'll buy one only..

Gonna get a boom stand and a boom arm if confirm buying two cymbals.. If not I'm getting a boom arm...

Back

Came back from camp yesterday afternoon. Overall, the camp was alright. The only fun thing I love about this camp is that, I got to meet new friends, wait, got to BOND with them, just plain knowing them better. I finally got to break the ice with most of the KL#1 Rangers. It's not that I've never met those people but, I've never really spoken and bonded with them (except for Kah Yun, he rocks).

Woke up at 7:15AM on Thursday (31st May 2007) and reached church at around 8:00AM. Left church at around 8:45AM I think. Reached there about an hour later. Pitched some tents (alright, maybe not some, maybe 2... Hahaha!). I forgot how to pitch it.. Hahah! Can't believe I forgot how to pitch a tent.. This is bad... After that, I fixed my drum set and played a bit. Then went for lunch... Had some group competition after that. All of the campers were arranged in 10 groups. I was in group 9 for the first day (we changed groups on the second). I got chosen to be the group leader and we won the first day's competition.. Wheee.. HAhah! Then we had some Vietnam war trail thingy at night. Thank God I didn't fall asleep... Can't go into details, kinda boring... HAha! I slept in the hall with Don and Adrian in sleeping bag on chairs... Slept at around 1:30AM but I was awake the whole night because of Selangor #7 boys... Noisy people..

Woke up at 8:00AM on the second day.. Then breakfast......We had group competition and stuff again.. Boring... Then boring.... Then I played for KL#1's praise and worship team. Not that good because first time playing with them.. And then boring.... Boring... Campfire was alright though.... Then slept at around 3:00AM...

Nothing much on the last day.. That's all. It was kinda boring but tiring activities.. The toilet lousy but thank God the food was alright.. Till the last two meals... HAha.. I love the people..

So now, back to work work work... Means, study study study and worrying worrying worrying (was worrying in camp anyways) and getting things done!

Good job to those people who facilitated the activities and stuff. Great job... God bless. Glory to God.
