alone i was
before your love
when i saw you
i knew my life was touched

i saw your smile
and then i knew
that everything i felt
inside was true

i saw your smile
and then i knew
that i was gonna spend
my life with you

just came back from Bangkok
the conference was gorgeous
absolutely wonderful
the worship team from India was truly,
by far the best(:

the whole thing was lovely,
i can't put to words what i learnt or how i feel
and if you ask me what i experienced,
all i can say is
God

i experienced God.
i've forgiven my father just that little bit more,
i've grown closer to the Lord just that wee bit more.
and i found out,
that my father loves me.
i saw it in pictures



(chorus)
You Lord.
You You You
You're there for me
You Lord
You You You
You've helped me see

You're there for me when i need you Lord
You shelter me
and Your word's my sword
You keep me safe
You keep me warm
To You i know that i belong(chorus)

My source of comfort when i'm down
i know You'll always be around
You hug me when i need You most
without You Lord i'd just be lost

i know i can depend on You
i know Your promises are true
You're my daddy, Lord
and my best friend
i know Your love will never end(chorus)

when i am broken,
when i am hurt
i find my solace in Your church
You help me Lord to find my way
with You i Know it's all okay(:
(chorus)



besides that,
the shopping was wonderful as well
came back with a whole load of stuff
i'm pleased(:
that's a bit of an understatement really.
haha.

victor and alastair came to pick us up(:
aren't they such darlings!

i couldn't sleep on the flight back
it was too cold
then it was too hot
the space was to tight
basically,
i was restless
i couldn't close my eyes
and i just kept wishing that it'd be announced we're arriving in Singapore.

i was excited(:
i was so close,i could cry


i couldn't wait to hold you in my arms
i couldn't wait to know you're not so far
i couldn't wait to tell you that i love you so much
i couldn't wait to get that precious chance

i couldn't wait to hug you so tight
i couldn't wait to hear you tell me everything's alright
i couldn't wait,
i was so close i could cry

- xoxo
charis loves you

only yours baby

i'm charis vera Ng,
i'm NOT a Singaporean, i was born in UK
but i spent most of my four years in scotland
i love alastair(:
i'm doing my best to live for God though i often fail miserably

ok,try this:
you're this girl who's flown over to this country when you're no more than four years of age
you resent your dad for it,
and it doesn't help when things between your parents don't work out either.

so you miss your home terribly,
you miss going strawberry-picking,
you miss eating boiled eggs out of egg-cups
and you miss warm and cuddly Uncle John and Aunty Esther.

instead,
you find yourself forced to change
and adapt in a horribly hot place
where in primary school,
you meet cold,heartless little kids who ignore you and don't let you play "family"
just cos your accent is different.
early on,
you get weird looks and you find yourself going for recess breaks alone.
your classmates complain to the class teacher when you call them stupid
because they don't understand what to you is simple english.
but they leave you alone when you call them an imbecile
because they don't know what it means.
your primary 1 & 2 class teacher takes joy in complaining to your mummy
because she detests you.
she detests you for constantly correcting her english grammer and pronunciation in front of the class
you soon realize that you can actually gain and keep friends upon them finding out your mother's an actress
but by that time you've more or less forced yourself to lose your accent which makes communication a lot easier anyway.

that was the little girl charis,
now,
on top of that,
i can be a total biotch sometimes, towards people.
and don't tell me you aren't sometimes please.
but i try my very best not to bitch about people.
im a dangerous shopper(=
i never know what i want or need til i see it.

i don't like television.
now that's a first innit?HAH.
bet you never knew someone who didn't like tv
well i don't
and i'm not trying to be different and difficult
it's noisy and boring
i like music:)
i find eating a chore but i love snacking
figure that out
i find certain kinds of pain addictive,
no, i promise i'm still sane.

which is actually pretty remarkable for someone living here,
in this time and place
where you normally get loads of homework,
tests with questions that look like they're in foreign language,
and where everything's a competition to be the best,
the prettiest,
the most popular,
the most hated,
the thinnest,
the fattest, the coolest
the list goes on.
one shouldn't try to be something you're not,
but everyone knows that's easier said than done.
like duurh.
