Feelings: 筋疲力盡

有人問我從 Tassie 回來了後，有沒有足夠休息．．．

沒有耶．

未開學就去到最盡，真係．．．

Dictionary 的 "Emily” 是解 "industrious - hardworking"，沒錯，這就是 Emily ！

Feelings: 害怕

晚上出去掉 rubbish，見到信箱有張 A4．拿來了看，是 from VIC Police．原來本月八日那天發生了這件事．．．嗚．．．看了後很害怕呢！就快開音樂會，我們要排練至晚上１０時．

另外，剛得知 VO+CE 各人都碰到了不同的 spiritual warfare．

突然想到了 Jason 所提過的 "在宣教中的前４後６" ．．．　　願各人平安．

Police investigate alleged teen rape
Police are investigating an alleged sexual assault at Murrumbeena in Victoria on Sunday night.

A 17-year-old girl says she was approached by two men while walking to a friend's house from the Murrumbeena railway station about 8:30pm AEST.

Police say her MP3 player and telephone were taken before she was sexually assaulted in Springthorpe Reserve.

The teenager says she could hear passers by, but was scared and remained quiet.

An account written by BREAD. After teaching You Wen & Chern Ting, it makes me think of my 3 little KIDS in Macao, the 3 that I taught in Dec 2005.

6th and 7th April
These 2 days, I went to church.
I went to to learn violin again.
A group of people from melbourne came and "jiao liu"
with us. They call" Votce"
They are so friendly, kind and funny.
The 1st day I go is a workshop. I choose violin to learn.
Vera and Darren who teach us theory before we learn violin.
There are 2 person who teach violin, they are Emily and Abraham.
Zhen qiang, you wen and me are the only 3 person who choose to learn violin.
Five of us who play violin become a group call"sandwich".

Abraham= Ham
Emily= cucumber
xiao qiang= egg
You wen= tomato
Me= Bread

So glad that I can know them.
The second day, we went there because there has a small concert call"yin yue bu dao hui"
Abraham and Vera is singing. You wen and I notice brother Ham plays violin better than siging.
Haha~~~(Brother ham, don't sad! just kidding)
That day we took some photo.
There is a very touching things happen.
Mathew and Bro Ham gave us CDs. It is expensive~
So touch.(My english is bad so bot going to tell whole story)

Actually still have 3rd day, but You wwen, Xiao Qiang and I go to east coast for traveling so
we can't go. So pity and so sad. That day we have to play a song that we learn, but....
Haiz~
Feel so sorry for my teachers, Emily and Bro Ham.
Haiz... ... Uhmm.... Hope to see them again!

Feelings: excited, exuberant ~ 恢復精神！！！

「昨天祂幫助了我，今天我頌讚祂的聖名，明日祂會同樣賜予幫助，這是我所信所知。」

Thanks for praying & uplifting Emily ^.^ !


早上 9:57am，老師回復了我．感謝神 for his prompt reply！And his approval！

Dear Hoi Fong,

It is possible to use the genre you suggest, though it may require some
thinking about the "traditional" nature of conventional religious
genres and the continuities and breaks which are shown in contemporary
Praise music. Other than that make sure you include musical examples and
clear descriptions of the key stylistic features.

Feelings: bit worry, 戰戰兢兢

Bet you have heard that F A M I L Y - Father And Mother I Love You
What about E M I L Y - Every Moment I Love You

It was on Friday, before starting our Worship Exhange with the Hobart Chinese Anglican Church, we had an ice-break. We sat in a circle and pass our name tag to the person next to us, when the music stops, I got You Wen's name tag. Robin got mind, and I asked who is You Wen. When You Wen met me, she shouted " EVERY MOMENT I LOVE YOU". I feel very touching... when someone say " I love you" the first time that person meet me.

It was an hour later that I learned that You Wen wants to learn violin and I will be teaching her. She explained that the phrase "Every Moment I Love You" is extended from my name E M I L Y. She's lovely. Hope that she will come to Christ very soon!



I've chatted with mom last night and learned that she had visited 2 doctors. One asked her to wait for 3 months and see how the fibroid goes, the other said there is no need to do any surgery to remove it. Well, she has booked to visit a third one, but it won't happens 'til June.

She's feeling weak and her health is not as good as before. May God protects her during this time, not to faint in the streets, and that she's sensitive enough to mark down all her symptoms and let the doctors know about them. Also pray for her salvation.



By the way, I am working on an essay which dues next Friday. I need to select a musical style and argue it to be a "neo-traditional" one. Neo-tradition - something like a revival of tradition music, with added new components. This afternoon, while still doing my research, I suddenly think that Contemporary Praise & Worship (neo-Pentecostal style) can be arguable. Since traditional hymns are being displaced nowadays... but somewhat there are still many hymns "surviving", with a new style attached to it (such as we are using backup vocalist & electronic instruments, sometimes jazz favour, rather than organ and choir).

I am waiting for my lecturer's reply what he thinks on my idea. If he agrees, it would be good. I hope that the essay can also arouse him to think of God and spiritual stuff. Please pray for me, hahah~ and for his prompt reply ^.^ ~

Feelings: hard-pressed, sicky

Live carefree before God, he's most careful with you... 1 Peter 6:7 Msg

Can I cast all my worries to God and then go ahead with a carefree life?

Next Tue: assessment
Next Fri: Quiz & essay due
Next Sun: Rehearsal 7-10pm in Monash

Also noticed that next Sat, VO+CE is leading the worship... hahha~ man... just back... >.< ~~~

We returned on Tue, and I know that the cell leaders are meeting on Wed. Also Jasmine got bunch of work to continue... Perhaps, as a full-time student, I am the luckiest of all in the team, since I am still having my holiday and I have taken a two-week leave for my viola lesson :P

Feelings: unsettled

OK... Friday 6th - Tuesday 11th will be in Tassie!!!

Yes, I am excited, and full of energy for this mission. However, towards my assignments and quizzes and assessments, I am feeling dreadful about them @_@ ! I am bringing along some orchestra score and my viola technique book, so I can do some, hopefully, LOTS of practice which I am free in Tasmania. Other than that I can't do anything for my essay and readings at the moment.

Dreadful Assessment @ 17/4, Quiz @ 20/4, Essay Due @20/4 - Really hope that when I return from Tassie, I am not tired to death.

Saint Saens Symphony No 3! Come On!
+ PS THANKS Janina for your encouragement!!!
