Verse 1
Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things
Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were here
Before the world began
Verse 2
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders
The world has ever known
Above all wealth
And treasures of the earth
There's no way to measure
What You're worth
CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind the stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all
A BIG kid who LOVES to draw!!
Above All-Michael W Smith

Information
Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.Take the quiz

Beatboxing is the vocal percussion of hip hop culture and music. It is primarily concerned with the art of reproducing drum sounds using one's voice, mouth, and nasal cavity. It can also involve singing, vocal imitation of turntable scratching, the simulation of horns, strings, and other musical instruments, and the replication of a vast array of sound effects.-Wikipedia

A dose of kindness
A sprinkle of love
A whole load of concern
And a huge bowl of deer tendon!
Backache's gone!

Lil' one
Scolding doesn't work...anymore.
I used to think that punishment = discipline.
No longer is that true.
I want to be your friend.
An example that you'd imitate.
Am I good enough?
Haha.
Teaching is no longer just that.
What does it take to get into a child's life?
It shouldn't be that hard, I was once a child too.
Truth is, it is hard.
You're different, your needs.. I'm appalled..
I'm at my wit's end.

Caught in between
Monday, February 19, 2007
These two days.. I've been caught in between-a lot.
I've been going out with my eldest bro and sis-in-law.
And they squabbled at the slightest things. Slightest.
Sigh.. Communication isn't just words. In fact it's everything else. Your tone.. your body languge... your personal radius( Let's get mathemathical)
On the eve, it started out with bro hugging his wife squeezing through the crowds. After the fireworks, it was jammed... EVERYWHERE! Traffic was slow, tempers were flaring. Everyone wanted to get out of the place fast. We were stuck. Can't move an inch.
*squabble*
They were no longer hugging. Bro was walking really fast.. ahead. I spoke to sis... then to bro. Reconciliation. Phew.
Just earlier...bro misplaced his phone. He asked sis...in a rather harsh tone.
*squabble*
We sat in his car, setting out to visit sis' parents. He drove recklessly.
I cried. Told him," Can you don't get angry over the slightest things..."
They made up... and the whole night was peaceful...
Phew.

Acceptance
Saturday, February 17, 2007
Woohoo!! It's chinese new year's eve!!
And I'm sick. I'll just watch people grow fat while I abstain from all the goodies.
Hah! As if I will.. This weekend.. I'll go into the SWIM-EAT-SLEEP cycle :D
Yesterday was the last day to put up the new year decorations. It's gonna be the piggy year! All the kids were busily colouring my little piglets. One little boy was what started the colouring frenzy.
P: Miss Quek.. I thought you have something for us to do?
Me: Oh Ya! Wait.. I'll go photocopy the pigs..
Two days ago, his grandma came to me and talked and cried.
Me: Can he go back later? He hasn't finished his work yet.
G: I know he's a naughty boy. But don't call his parents when he's up to mischief.
Me:...
G: His mom would only scold. His dad would only hit him. He's my only grandson and they don't know how to love him.
Tears welled up..
G: I've been taking care of him since he was young..
Is it because he has never been loved by his parents in a way he could understand? Just hitting.. scolding the child when they've done something wrong doesn't mean love. You've got to explain to the child why you did that.
As I was washing the dishes.. I called him to me.
Me: I spoke to your grandma earlier.
P:...
Me: I just want to say that your grandma loves you a lot. Also... Be a good boy. I won't call your parents up, but you have to be a good boy.
P: Ye-s
Me: Wanna help me this friday?
P: Yes!
He needs to be accepted. He needs to be loved.
P: Here Miss Quek! ( he hands me the piglets he has just coloured)
Me: WoW! Nice! Can you cut them?
P: Okie! (beaming away)
I'm happy too :D

A simple Thank You!
Wednesday, January 10, 2007
X: Can you come to my class? This kid, N, is crying. I dunno why..
Me: Okie..
+This bunch of kids are rarely quiet. It's strange as I entered to find silence+
N: ...SOB...
Me: Come on out.. (N came out still sobbing) What happened? Are you alright?
N: sob..SOb..I've got lotsa homework...SOB...
Me: It's alright.. Dun cry.. You're excused from tuition today. (N widened his eyes... tears brimming) You come to my class. I'll help you out.
N isn't a pure Chinese. He's mixed. He has never really understood Chinese but has to take it as his second language. hah.. It's Chinese tuition that he's excused from. :D
When I was in secondary school, it was common for the teachers to give us holiday assignments (lotsa them in fact!!) Due to poor poor poor time management, I'd play away the entire holidays then.... On the second last day of holidays, start rushing my assignments. The first time it happened, I cried a whole lot before falling back to sleep. My brother, who was merely two years older than me, had a shock. He told mommy and mommy just said," Just sleep. Wake up early and finish up your work." I slept soundly, knowing I'm not alone :D
Me: Wow! That's the last page! Well done!
+After completing the last bit of his homework...+
N: Thank you Miss Quek..(softly)
Tears started brimming from my eyes. A simple thank you. I'm touched and really appreciated.
Thank you little one..
