A breathing space in a world of rush
One of my favourite inspirational clips.
Do watch the show, Facing the Giants, if you can.

How true.. We sometimes quit even before we start. We don’t think we are strong enough sometimes or it is just simply impossible. But we have to endure it for in the end it is worth it!
Quite a nice sweet rendition of this song! Totally love it.

One of the nicest performance I have ever seen! Just like a ballerina in a musical box!

Apparently theres another mega event in June, and the famous Suzie Q would be coming to Singapore! Who’s interested to go watch?

One of the nicest songs I have listen to recently. Really quite an emotional song.
For those who didn’t know the backstory behind the song, Chris Medina was one of the contestants for S10 of American Idol, and he released this song after his elimination, which is basically written for his financee who suffered a brain injury during a car wreck. Now with that backstory in mind. Enjoy.
Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I’ll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you’ll see
How every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most
What are words
If you really don’t mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they’re only for good times
Then they don’t
When it’s love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we’re gone
And I know an angel was sent just for me
And I know I’m meant to be where I am
And I’m gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight
And I’m gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most
What are words
If you really don’t mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they’re only for good times
Then they don’t
When it’s love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we’re gone
Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I’ll be there
And I’m gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most
I’m forever keeping my angel close
Caught sight of these 2 youtube clips recently.
Who says health is just downhill after their 40s? These 2 people are both in their 70s, and probably fitter than most people in their 30s!
Chinese culture has always been one full of glamour, colour and vividness. Just take a look at Lunar New Year celebrations, Mid Autumn festival, Hungry Ghost month, and even simple things like Wedding banquets.
There’s always lots of colours, bright lights, massive crowds, and tons of noise. In all, a sense of bustling joyous activity.
Being the hungry ghost month currently, there are actually 5-10 ‘getais’ happening daily around Singapore. You would probably need to buy the chinese newspapers to get the schedule and location though. These ‘getais’ or literally, song stage, are a form of free performances done for the ‘brothers and sisters’ who are released from the spirit realm during the hungry ghost month. But that said, it is always packed with people too!
Recently I have a sudden craving for these performances. The friendly banter among the emcees, the dances and hokkien songs, the bright lights and the large bustling crowds somehow create a kind of atmosphere that’s different from say a music festival organised for the young adult crowd.
Don’t understand? Just watch below.
