You are My All in All~~

You are my Strength when I am weak
You are the Treasure that I seek
You are my All in All
Seeking You as a precious Jewel
Lord to give up, I will be a fool
You are my All in All

Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name

Taking my sins, my cross, shame
Rising again, I Bless Your name
You are my All in All
When I fall down, You Pick me up
When I am dry, You Fill my cup
You are my All in All

Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name

Bowling Outing~~

Hey hey..What the fish..wow..For the first time this year or say since ABC Camp 05 have I played bowling again..hehe before that..

Well work for the day was rather busy..Phone calls just keep coming and taxpayers keep on complimenting and complaining..it's so thin or say grey the line is..After work, went over to the arcade to play a few rounds of Initial D..gosh~~ i can't beat my rival yet..got to work out on my turning portion..if not it's a waste of $$..

After that, went to Suntec to meet up with Ee Wei & Joey and so we went to MS for dinner..Ate a simple yong tau foo and had some good fellowship then we head for the bowling alley.. Heh that's where the fun part beings..

Ok along came Ee Pin, then we decided to start the game session w/o waiting for the rest to come..So initially, I was like..hitting 6-9pins..but just unable to get spare or strike..then Ee Pin super funny..she just swing the bowling ball like a golf session..luckily the ball didn't roll backwards..then Joey and Ee Wei did have their fair share of fun..so by the time we hit our 9th frame..Wei Lin, her brother; Wei Yang and Ming Jian came along..and so we start on our mini competition proper..oh b4 that, I ended the game hitting just 102 pins.. way short of my normal game.. well again it's only a warm-up :0

So for the first game, we split into; Ee Wei, Joey and me.. verus.. Ee Pin, Wei Lin, Wei Yang & Ming Jian..then the game very pressuring..we're like switching lanes..alternating ourselves..then I also feeling the pressure as Wei Yang is like just behind me..felt that he bowled quite well..got the style.. the posture..and the power..with practice sure better..and so.. the round ended quite tightly.. with my side winning just by 1pin!! our score was like Isaac 109, Ee Wei 80, Joey, 67..

Then on to round 2!!this time..drawing system is a bit the unfair..as I, Wei Yang, Ee Wei and Joey teamed against the other 3..so won't compare score..but rather the play style..As usual, Ee Pin entertained us with mostly her style whereas I and WeiYang kept ourselves on track by ensuring that we had a good fight till the end..with his score..at 115pins..whereas I got 133pins..I got praised from the rest..but then again..I know my capabilities..so I told them it's only a game you know..it's all bout the fellowship that we had together that matters..so yeah most importantly we all had fun and enjoyed another fellowship..

By the time we ended our game..it was like coming 12am!! so we hurried left for the last train..the content along the way I won't mention much..but I just walked home after that.. Heh fortunately for me that my parents are not that particular as I said I would be back before 1am.. and sure thing I did.. Yeah~~

so in short.. I had fun.. thanks guy for making this outing a wonderful session.. thank God for you guys.. I hope to share more of Christ with you people if I have the opportunity.. and I am sure i will..

John 15:10 " This is my command to you; that you love one another..." thank you God..for this chance and fellowship session.. I am loving it.. Back to work~~

I am loving it~~

Yeah yeah..1st thing in the morning is a good news to all Liverpool fans..We beat Man Utd 1-0 thanks to a goal in the 19th min by Peter Crouch..one of the last guy in my list to score a goal given that his record currently stands at 35 apperances 8 goals..what a striker!! ok whatsoever then..haha..

Had service today..Then later went upstairs for Children Ministry..then today I was like songleading..Tried something new..or say funny..tried to ra-ra the kids to move..if not they're like a stone..explaining to them the purpose of coming to church..why are they in the galilee..why is the single purpose of coming to church..initially they were still so stony..went to mingle with them yet still the same..but as we slowly sing the rest of the songs..I slowly felt God's presence was in our midst.. It was the song "You are my all in all" that made it my day..Their voices, the music, the echoes..they're all so lovely..this prompt me to say..how lovely are those at His feet who brings lovely praises and worship to Him..I prayed and I know that God is pleased with our worship..Becos it comes from the heart..Not from our mind or anywhere else..I prayed that the kids will surely experience the one and true living God in their lives.. and bare witness to His name..

Ok after that, we had lesson..then I went lunch with Eunice & Yee Ning..It was a rare moment..as I had been asking them to make themselves available for dunno how many weeks..So we went to burger king..ate there..and had a good fellowship..it was a good time to catch up with their daily lives.. and to see how are they growing with Christ..Only one thing that hurts me time and time.. is that they said YPM is boring..both the Saturday & Sunday services.. I wanted to tell them so much that YPM is not that boring.. but really it's very clicky.. I dunno how to let them know that they're not left out or left alone.. I pray that one day I'll give them the answer..one day..then after that we went to the arcade to play some games like bishy bashy game.. then our all time favourite.. the ice roller game.. haha had fun for sometime.. in fact we're even perspiring.. Whew!! ok after that, I sent them back to the taxi stand to meet up with their parents and made my way down to orchard to meet uncle..

Met uncle..Then we went to watch Real, the movie..It was quite a poorly done movie..no wonder why they didn't make it to the big screens..It was more like their history story than a movie.. rather disappointed with it.. So after the movie.. We went to have for dinner and talked about our past, our present, the market and global issues..it was cool.. tried to talk to Him about Christ..but unsuccessful..so hope that one day I can do it again.. Wait for that opportunity.. yeah yeah.. I am rather refreshed and ready to take my work to a new level tml..

"I will hide your words in my heart,
that I may not sinned against you."
Psalm 119:11

An other Ordinary Saturday~~

Well, I am writing this just to inform you guys that I had tried my best in getting my CCA certificate which is way way below what I should have originally.. Thanks for the many concern.. But still I got to submit my application for university.. Please continue to pray for me.. I am really lacking confidence.. Last day for submission is 21 February 2006.. which is just 2 more days away.. I think I need to consider to apply for time off from my work as well.. To go down to the Office of Admissions to submit my application..So please pray for me..

Ok I left NTU application yet to reply becos I felt God wanted me to use Her as a person who greatly impacted me.. I was shocked.. I was writing something about someone whom I dun even know.. Then God used Gina to ask me to look at my blog.. Then as I was reading through one of my entry.. then the word.. "IMPACT ME MOST" struck me.. That was what the essay wants me to write.. Describe a person who has had an influence in you, and share with us why and/or how it has influenced you.. See God is truly amazing.. He answer my doubt even if I just opened my mouth and asked.. Thanks Gina, becos it's late.. I am going to write it tml after I am home after service..So in short.. remember this..

Ask and it shall be given
Seek and you shall find
Knock and the door will be opened. (Matt 7:7)

This is truly motivating.. I think God is leading me on.. For that, again.. I will continue to trust in His ways.. I am going to surrender my goals and dreams of entering university to Him.. And let Him lead me on..

Ok it's getting late and I need to go church later.. And what more.. I am songleading too.. Hopefully Ms Clara Ying did her homework..if not..well then again..It's glory to God that we're seeking.. If we give it out with our heart.. I am sure He'll be pleased with our worship even if it's a short or messed..

Jesus loved the little children,
All the children in the world,
Red and Yellow, Black or White,
They are precious in His sight.
Jesus loved the little children of the world.. =)

Valentine's Day~~

Well well..what do we have this year!? It's no other than a valentine's day..ie.. international friendship day for those who don't understand the meaning of it..

This is rather a special year for me..becos I seldom spent this day alone..haha usually got people to accompany.. So it's no difference for me when my friend, Ee Wei..called me to go along with her group of friends..yeah I'll talk about it shortly..

Now for work..Today is my 1st official day doing my job as a tax officer.. started off quite nervous.. looking blur blur.. dunno what buttons to press or how to go about checking information.. It was towards the end of the day that my performance picked up for the better.. And yes I'm being more confident with taxpayers again.. I think it's the same old Isaac of the past when I'm a tax assistant then.. So I guess I can only rate my debut performance like 4 out of 10!!Poor but definitely more potential to improve.. So my motto for the day is "Tomorrow will be a Better day!!" yeah yeah it will be.. Gan Ba Te Isaac.. You can do it.. A long term plan is ahead of you.. Got to try to achieve it..

Ok after work, went to Toa Payoh to meet up with Ee Wei and her friends.. When I was there, I was like woah~~ so many of them.. like say 14 of us..then like I the can-na-fare person there..Got to intro myself.. But realised that to remember all 13 of them is difficult.. I only remember a few like Guo Liang, Jolene, Alan, Ee Ping, Yi Ling.. what a disappointment.. But I think the joke of the day is that I managed to blend well with them super easy.. It's like me.. oooh... Ok so ate at the foodcourt then we went to catch the movie called "Walking on the line"...

Went into the cinema 5 mins late.. So I dunno understand the 1st portion but derive that Jack was being killed by a saw.. And dunno the rest.. Generally I say this movie is good.. worth the $$ but only problem is the moral story behind the real story that is not very pleasing..As a christian, we should only have one wife and not divorce her and go after another..Other than that, the appreciation, the fame, the ups and downs made the show good.. Again those who doesn't appreciate classical shows may find this boring as it's in the '50s to '70s.. yeah yeah..

After the show, we went to McDonald's to celebrate Alan's 27th birthday.. Wow I think it was fun..The manager there even helped us snapped a photo with the polaroix camera..Cool!! Then stayed behind to fellowship till 12.30++ and then we went our separate ways.. I hope if got chance, I would like to meet up with them.. I think it's a good mixture of clicks.. Well diverse in many qualities.. Maybe this is where I find home!?

Let's us bring this to GOD in prayer.. It's getting late got to sleep.. Later still need to work leh.. I had a fruitful and fun day.. Thank you Lord for giving me this opportunity to know more people.. To really understand myself, my future better.. Thank you..

Oh I need to wish someone Happy Birthday too!!! HAPPY 23rd BDAY if you're seeing this, Boss~~ haha =)

1. To enter university ( I want to study again!!)
2. To upgrade/broaden my spiritual knowledge
3. To understand myself better ( Everyone has a dark side which they dunno)
4. To impact life on others ( Acts 20:24 - Myself is nothing much, it's the life that I am living for Him that I want others to see; be a witness for Him and be a role model for kids to follow)

Know me well.. I am an extrovert in an introvert self..Haha..I pray that one day..I will just be my extrovert self.. I don't like to keep feelings inside myself and not being able to release them.. It's so not the IsAaC yEo many people know.. I don't want to worry my parents for having split personalities.. And truly be the IsAaC I know I can be..

Keep running the race.. We've not much time..

First day of Work!!~~

Okay, I am feeling excited to write a short brief notes about my first day at work..

I think it's cool!! I mean I am now working with IRAS as a tax officer.. Finally a job that integrades my interest and personality together.. As a tax officer, I would be assigned to help taxpayers to either e-file/handwritten their Form B1 for tax returns..This job allows me to interact with all woks of life and utilized my knowledge on taxation.. Hope to use this opportunity I have now to seek a permanent/contract next time..

So.. First day of work!? Quite interesting as we need to undergo a 7 days training programme to equip us with the knowledge we need.. As for the new recruitment.. They're 21 of us.. 3 guys and 18 girls!! (as usual, this line, the ratio is always uneven) Well, I managed to make new friends fast with the guys especially betwen us there's so many common topics that brought us together well.. As for the girls.. Didn't really like them.. A bit the dao leh..Initiate a conversation with a few of them.. Their response was like "aaaa... Oh Hi..." Nevertheless, they're soon to be my working colleagues.. So got to bear with them.. Hopefully get to break the ice as the days goes on..

I am feeling excited.. Haha way to go!! I am in for the job.. Tax returns here I come =)

Festive CNY greetings~~



As what my brother said; we're cousins for life!!

Check us out!

I think this is a very cool picture.. Too bad I missed out my other cousins.. But I know we'll have another soon again.. Hopefully, not until next year 2007...

Yeah from the left: Isaac, Fiona, Mabel, Jacob

Peaceful times~~

Hey hey..This weekend was a good good time of relaxation..I spent my weekends at a chalet in Changi..Near Changi Village..My uncle used this opportunity for a family gathering..And to make matter interesting..I think it's great to see so many of my cousins together either playing or just followshiping with one another..

The sea was great..Feeling the cold breeze blowing past my face..Listening to the wavy busy waters that seemed so disturbed..I was quite lost in my thoughts..I was thinking and wondering why did God want me to go through this stage of life..Where's the correct answer to life's best moments..So frankly, I was troubled..Then, I realised that I am like the waves..Trying so hard to push for the shoreline..I looked up into the darkness then I saw a light coming for the beacon..I then think am I like the light shining brightly even in the midst of darkness..Even if I know the sea is stormy, will I continue to radiate the light that is in me for others to see!?

Yes yes, I know my answer..When I looked up into the sea and saw the Kelong..I just know what I need to do..I need to breakdown the strongholds in my life.. Yeah that what I need..Pure inspiration from God above..And I am refreshed and renewed both spiritually and physically..

I am ready to take the new challenges in life in the coming few days..I will continue to live on.. Because you are Always Be with me.. That is how I survived..

Let us be the light that shines brightly like the beacon in the midst of the stormy waters.. Never let the flame burn out.. Keep His word closed in your heart that you will know what is the truth.. Keep on trusting in His time.. I had a great time at the chalet.. Thanks~~

Festive New Year Greetings~~

Ok pardon me.. But I have been recently very busy with stuffs.. Working, visiting, personal problems..

First of All, I'm absolutely delighted at Liverpool's recent signing on former idol star.. which is also my favorite soccer player.. Robbie Fowler!! Woah~~ He's the great player of the 90s.. England's most natural striker.. His disallowed overhead goal last thursday morning was a waste.. if only he's 2 yards behind it would be lovely for him.. Still I believe I have a lot more to see from him.. From the man the Kop once called "God".. Way to go.. Number 11..

2nd, I would like to wish everyone a happy chinese new year 2006!! Hope that this year, a brand new year.. Everything will start good and great for you.. No worries or troubles but strength and love I bring to you a message from our God Jesus..

Keep praying for me that my cca certificate will be ready soon.. I really want to go into university but afraid that my results won't be good enough to enter.. So I think an alternative is to use the cca as bonus to attempt to enter.. Although I don't have much faith.. But I trust in GOD to me to enter if it is going to be His Will..

Thank you Jianwu, for that tuesday conversation will you at Causeway point.. Yes although I know the answer already but it is nice for someone to encourage me and showed that much concern for me.. Yes we're still friends.. And I really thank God for you.. Though we may have disagreement.. But you still know my answer.. I will wait for that day.. One day.. It'll surely come.. Yeah I am feeling excited to start the new year looking forward to a bright future..

This year CNY although it may not be as busy or as lively as the past.. But I feel that it was a fruitful time I had with my family, relatives and friends.. Thank you all for your time spent.. I am loving it.. Thank God for such wonderful people around.. Love ya =)
