The no.2 of american idol 6 is back!He recently published a new album A.D.D.(a.k.a. Audio Day Dream) and there many fantastic songs worthy of your internet bandwidth.

Some songs that are worthy of your ears are "Break Anotha"(although I don't really like it) and "Know My Name"(this is a good one).However the one that I am posting up is the 2nd single after Break Anotha is How Many Words.I actually heard this song first when Blake performed during American Idol 7.And I must say this is one of his most original and unique songs.Check it out!

Song:

Lyrics:

I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I’m through with you..

I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I’m through with you..

Right back where we started Falling apart at the seams You’ve tagged your name on my heart And I sat there and let it bleed

Sweetheart so now this is goodbye

[Chorus] I’m letting you go You’re letting me down Been caught in your reign and I almost drowned I’m letting you go, our love’s black and blue How many words does it take To say I’m through?

I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I’m through with you..

You said you knew what romance is Jaded I fell for your lies But you’re out of second chances Sadly were fading out tonight

Sweetheart so now this is goodbye

I’m letting you go You’re letting me down Been caught in your reign and I almost drowned I’m letting you go, our love’s black and blue How many words does it take To say I’m through?

I have to Don’t want to I’ve got to set you free No more words It’s over Now I can finally breathe

I’m letting you go You’re letting me down Been caught in your reign and I almost drowned I’m letting you go, our love’s black and blue How many words does it take To say I’m through?

I’m letting you go You’re letting me down Been caught in your reign and I almost drowned I’m letting you go, our love’s black and blue How many words does it take To say I’m through?

I’m letting you go (I have to) You’re letting me down (don’t want to) Been caught in your reign and I almost drowned (I’ve got to set you free) I’m letting you go, our love’s black and blue (no more words) How many words does it take (It’s over) To say I’m through? (now I can finally breathe)

I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I’m through with you..

I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I…I…I… I’m, I’m Through I’m through with you

Teenagers view on HEAVEN...

It's a email I have received just minutes before I wrote published this post.I'm really.....speechless.....I just...I just don't know what to say...seriously...

A TEENAGER'S VIEW OF HEAVEN
17-year-old Brian Moore had only a short time to write something for a class. The subject was what Heaven was like. 'I wowed 'em,' he later told his father, Bruce. 'It's a killer. It's the bomb. It's the best thing I ever wrote..' It also was the last.

Brian Moore died May 27, 1997, the day after Memorial Day. He was driving home from a friend's house when his car went off Bulen-Pierce Road in Pickaway County and struck a utility pole. He emerged from the wreck unharmed but stepped on a downed power line and was electrocuted.

The Moores framed a copy of Brian's essay and hung it among the family portraits in the living room. 'I think God used him to make a point. I think we were meant to find it and make something out of it,' Mrs. Moore said of the essay. She and her husband want to share their son's vision of life after death. 'I'm happy for Brian. I know he's in heaven. I know I'll see him.'

Brian's Essay: The Room...
In that place between wakefulness and dreams, I found myself in the room. There were no distinguishing features except for the one wall covered with small index card files. They were like the ones in libraries that list titles by author or subject in alphabetical order. But these files, which stretched from floor to ceiling and seemingly endless in either direction, had very different headings. As I drew near the wall of files, the first to catch my attention was one that read 'Girls I have liked.' I opened it and began flipping through the cards. I quickly shut it, shocked to realize that I recognized the names written on each one. And then without being told, I knew exactly where I was.

This lifeless room with its small files was a crude catalog system for my life. Here were written the actions of my every moment, big and small, in a detail my memory couldn't match. A sense of wonder and curiosity, coupled with horror, stirred within me as I began randomly opening files and exploring their content. Some brought joy and sweet memories; others a sense of shame and regret so intense that I would look over my shoulder to see if anyone was watching.

A file named 'Friends' was next to one marked 'Friends I have betrayed.' The titles ranged from the mundane to the outright weird 'Books I Have Read,' 'Lies I Have Told,' 'Comfort I have Given,' 'Jokes I Have Laughed at .' Some were almost hilarious in their exactness: 'Things I've yelled at my brothers.' Others I couldn't laugh at: 'Things I Have Done in My Anger', 'Things I Have Muttered Under My Breath at My Parents.' I never ceased to be surprised by the contents.

Often there were many more cards than I expected. Sometimes fewer than I hoped. I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of the life I had lived. Could it be possible that I had the time in my years to fill each of these thousands or even millions of cards? But each card confirmed this truth. Each was written in my own handwriting. Each signed with my signature.

When I pulled out the file marked 'TV Shows I have watched', I realized the files grew to contain their contents. The cards were packed tightly, and yet after two or three yards, I hadn't found the end of the file. I shut it, shamed, not so much by the quality of shows but more by the vast time I knew that file represented.

When I came to a file marked 'Lustful Thoughts,' I felt a chill run through my body. I pulled the file out only an inch, not willing to test its size and drew out a card. I shuddered at its detailed content.

I felt sick to think that such a moment had been recorded. An almost animal rage broke on me. One thought dominated my mind: No one mustever see these cards! No one must ever see this room! I have to destroy them!' In insane frenzy I yanked the file out. Its size didn't matter now. I had to empty it and burn the cards. But as I took it at one end and began pounding it on the floor, I could not dislodge a single card. I became desperate and pulled out a card, only to find it as strong as steel when I tried to tear it.

Defeated and utterly helpless, I returned the file to its slot. Leaning my forehead against the wall, I let out a long, self-pitying sigh.

And then I saw it.. The title bore 'People I Have Shared the Gospel With.' The handle was brighter than those around it,seemed newer, almost unused. I pulled on its handle and a small box not more than three inches long fell into my hands. I could count the cards it contained on one hand.

And then the tears came. I began to weep. Sobs so deep that they hurt. They started in my stomach and shook through me. I fell on my knees and cried. I cried out of shame, from the overwhelming shame of it all. The rows of file shelves swirled in my tear-filled eyes. No one must ever, ever know of this room. I must lock it up and hide the key. But then as I pushed away the tears, I saw Him.

No, please not Him. Not here. Oh, anyone but Jesus. I watched helplessly as He began to open the files and read the cards. I couldn't bear to watch His response. And in the moments I could bring myself to look at His face, I saw a sorrow deeper than my own.

He seemed to intuitively go to the worst boxes. Why did He have to read every one? Finally He turned and looked at me from across the room. He looked at me with pity in His eyes. But this was a pity that didn't anger me. I dropped my head, covered my face with my hands and began to cry again. He walked over and put His arm around me. He could have said so many things. But He didn't say a word. He just cried with me.

Then He got up and walked back to the wall of files. Starting at one end of the room, He took out a file and, one by one, began to sign His name over mine on each card. 'No!' I shouted rushing to Him. All I could find to say was 'No, no,' as I pulled the card from Him. His name shouldn't be on these cards. But there it was, written in red so rich, so dark, so alive. The name of Jesus covered mine. It was written with His blood. He gently took the card back. He smiled a sad smile and began to sign the cards. I don't think I'll ever understand how He did it so quickly, but the next instant it seemed I heard Him close the last file and walk back to my side.

He placed His hand on my shoulder and said, 'It is finished.' I stood up, and He led me out of the room. There was no lock on its door. There were still cards to be written.

'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.'-Phil. 4:13 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.' If you feel the same way forward it so the love of Jesus will touch their lives also My 'People I shared the gospel with' file just got bigger, how about yours?

IF THERE IS ONE EMAIL THAT I HAVE READ THAT NEEDS TO GO AROUND THE WORLD, IT IS THIS ONE, FOR THE CHRISTIAN OR NOT! MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
You don't have to share this with anybody, no one will know whether you did or not, but what do you feel in your heart?

American Idol 7

So,the season's back....now it's no.7!Lol,that's a long way since the heydays of Kelly Clarkson.From there we had Ruden Studard...Fantasia Barrino..Carrie Underwood....Taylor Hicks and more recently Jordin Sparks...

Anyway,it is so far with 8 contestants left...with a last one an Asian eliminated.I forgot what's the name but she's quite the timid one.Cute,but not beautiful.The most hyped one is definitely DavidArchuleta.His....kinda like Daniel Lee from Malaysian Idol 2(or the last one..)He could actually pull this off since many gals are crazy about him and his "popish" voice.He can sell many records...definitely..I kinda support him a little....his quite the talented one of all and full of personality.


(This is his rendition of Another day in Paradise)

However,the one I am gunning for the the underdog and a strong one too.He is David Cook and man that guy could be the next Daughtry!He can make any pop song you can think off and turn it into a rock hit!He may not be as popular as Archuleta but man this guy got something!Some of his notable renditions are Hello(Lionel Richie),Billie Jean(Micheal Jackson) and Little Sparrow(Dolly Parton).


(Here is his rendition of Chris Cornell's Billie Jean)

To sum it all,Archuleta is the favourite of all the finalists...but still you never know...Doolittle was the top performer last season and yet she lost to the younger Sparks and Lewis....I'm routing for David Cook!

The Elections 2008...

So,the elections just passed,and the opposition really scare the hell out of BN,the ruling goverment.Still BN won by a simple-majority(140 Parliament seats,just 8 short of 2/3 majority).But what really was the highlight was when the Opposition captured Penang.Yes...the pearl of the orient.....DAP really took the island by suprised and gave a slap on Gerakan and MCA.

From my point of view,it is finally time for the opposition to step-up,and they did one hell of a job......Lim Guan Eng is the new Chief Minister.....the opposition which consists of DAP,PKR and PAS combined to Barisan Alternatif....lol......they not only took Penang...Kedah,Perak,Selangor and Kelantan felll into their hands...

I will only talk about Penang since I live here =.=.....I actually kinda surprised how DAP took penang that easy.But I actually feel sorry for Dr.Koh since he govern Penang quite welll....maybe not that well but still there were worse......He even take responsibility for the defeat and not blame others which is quite brave.He even welcomed the new goverment well to KOMTAR!

In the end,I hope that the new goverment of Penang will serve our people better and just make life easier for all penangites.

Camporee 2008

So this year the committee of 2008(which is my year,of course) is organizing our first camp of the year.CAMPOREE 2008.My fellow friends were in the pre-camp to set the props up and finish everything we have.

On the next day,the participants came.So after they report in...blah blah blah it's KIM'S GAME!Me and May Phing were in charge of the observation base...which is to identify 20-30 items after a 10 sec limit to remember those.Anyway we had quite a lot of fun.We make pl or ps to propose to li ji or tze yen who are taking care of another base beside ours.

And this is bloody funny video when we made Irene propose to Li Ji.(just look at him XD)

After that we had our treasure hunt.Now this is where the fun begins! :DMy base....and Tze Yen's too is one of the most wildest.Our base is all about ping pong balls......and FLOUR!!! XD You should have seen the look of my face when I choose this base!!XD XD XD I'm gonna have some fun!!!Some powdery one!!!

So after all that,the patrol's wash up in Adrian Hong's base(I think..) and it was MalamKebudayaan....and the guides report out...but what the hell?who cares?I'm one of the judges of the malam kebudayaan.And surprisingly Nuri was the one with the highest score.lol.

And there was Night Games....I was the mystery man...and the patrols must gather clues to find out who it is...which is me....and we get to eat orange!Adrian Hong gladly bought for us as it was an indication of the AJK with the clue. :D If I'm not mistaken Pekaka found me first....

On the next day...I was the secretary of the camp...so not much action for me....but that day was Cabaran Day and those who completed all bases will received a special badge..(not sure everyone got it though...)

And do you want to know the results?Well......Rajawali was the overall winner...and the best tresure hunt goes to Pekaka...lol.......but why??why????why???Did Kenyalang did so badly????waa!!!!!!!!!they were the last!!!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!!!!

The End.....For now....tune in for TCI...
