Death and all His friends

am currently listening to Coldplay's latest album, Viva La Vida Or Death and All His Friends..significant change in style from where they used to be..much edgier, raw-er and darker...still melodic and with all those complex harmonies..but they've definitely matured in a direction i admire and enjoy even more..

i dun really like dis..Wintercon starts tm and i've got some responsibilities yet i'm feeling dark and angry again..not a good sign at all..

watchin the Watoto Children's Choir in action today really was an enriching and rewarding experience..and a gd talk with my fren(u noe who u are) was a pleasant surprise.. reminded mi once again that pentecostal christians do hav a heart and soul..as well as a social conscience..mayb my Disillusionment wif that movement is heal-able after all..i still dun like said movement's false optimism and denial of reality though..

as for Singapore, Grandma still isn't very well but she's really old and has had a good life..wat more can one ask? i onli pray that she does noe the Lord and that when she goes, she'll go in peace without a great deal of pain..n i really miss having good conversations with Kumu..we really need to talk about the last 6 months man..you'll always be my good confidante and bro whom i relate to best..and i wish Kian, Richard and myself had more time together..man, wif u guys beside mi, goin to war would be much more reassuring..haha..i mean that, really..n it does disappoint mi to noe that everytime i head home, i find out how much of everyone's lives i'm missing..

Wintercon is today n i'm lookin fwd to it..even if i've got to take care of some kids who r first-timers..(these noe who they are)..hahahaha..cajoling infants is really not my strongest point..;) mayb i shd try caning instead........

the Grace of God abounds to the chief of sinners...that drives mi on and allows mi to take watever comes my way this sem..not because i'm worthy and deserving, but because i'm evil n sinful yet inspite of this God showed me His unmerited grace and favour..and God's grace lights fires in men that are not easily extinguished...

Hope your grandma recovers. My grandma is also bed ridden. *pat* But i am not as close to her as you're to your grandma.
